Mutilate

  The two woke up in each other's embrace. Well, Raven woke up. She awoke almost half an hour earlier then she usually does. Instead of getting out of bed she decided to stay wrapped in Damian's arms to give him more sleep. And to let him wake up and know that Raven is still safe with him.

   Get up. He's asleep right now. He won't be able to stop you from dying. Go ahead, stand up and find a way to permanently sleep. Or I'll do it for you. You know you want to Raven. It's all you've ever wanted, to finally be free from your reputation and torment. Damian doesn't care for you. It's pity. Pity that you don't deserve. Now, be a good little demon and go off yourself.

Her fathers words never leave her head. She can never escape him. She turned over to face Damian's chest, which she buried her tormented head in. She quietly sobbed into his bare chest. Raven felt his grip get firmer around her body. "Stop crying my love. You're beautiful face doesn't need tears." He groggily said to her. All she did was continue to cry for the rest of the morning.

   
    "Raven! We'll be out for pizza!" Kori yelled to the mage. She smiled to herself as she figured today would be a good opportunity to follow her fathers advice. Running into the kitchen she rummaged through the cabinets. An orange bottle fell from one. She looked down at the small bottle and proceeded to read the dose information. Raven clutched it tight in her pale and small hand. The empath locked herself in the bathroom.

Raven threw the orange bottle onto the counter. Her hands resting on either side of the white marble. She slowly allowed herself to look at the mirror. Once she glanced at it, all she saw was red eyes, red skin and horns. "I'm disgusting.." She looked down to the pills. Slowly she unscrewed the cap and placed it on the counter. She poured out at least ten pills. That would be enough to kill her right? She dry swallowed them down one by one until she had finally taken all that she had poured out. Her whole world started to turn fuzzy as her body slowly numbed. She fell to the ground with a smile on her face. Happy that she was finally free.
