YOU

"Raven?" Her head snapped towards me in a quick flash, and a grin slowly appeared across her face.

"So you do recognize me. I thought you'd never guess." She snarled. My eyes drifted towards something gleaming underneath Tyler's foot, and I glanced up at him. His eyes were wide and fear-stuck, as if all his confidence had just drained from his body at once.

"W-who are you?" His lip trembled, as he tried to speak. He was more terrified than Gar and I combined.

"Don't be so afraid, Tyler!" Raven's deepened demon voice had converted back to Bella's, "Im your little sister remember?"

"No.." he muttered, slowly reaching down. He had seen the same sparkling thing that I did. A knife. "Youre not my sister. You never were." Raven's eyes flickered to the floor, and I sucked in a breath. He was done for. In an instant, a shot rang out, and Tyler was on his knees clutching his shoulder. His hand was already soaked in blood.

"Tyler!" I exclaimed, wiggling my arms. But to no avail, this rope was tighter than anything I couldve imagined.

"Not my best shot." She shrugged, examining the gun, "But I wont miss with you." She aimed it at me, and my stomach twisted. She set it right on my forehead and I squeezed my eyes shut, "Nighty night.." she whispered, and something clicked.

My eyes shot open at a sudden war cry. A pan swung against Bell- I mean Raven's right cheek, and she fired upward at the ceiling. I flinched as the particles of wood fluttered down again, and then glanced up at my savior. "Yuki!"

"Did you miss me?" She grinned, out of breath. Her red hair was out of its pigtails, down to her back. She looked tired.

"Of course we did. But, we need your help. You need to untie me and save your brother." I nodded my head towards him, and she gasped.

"Tyler are you okay?!" She rushed over to him. Yuki sat him up, and stared at his blood soaked shirt.

"Help.. (Y/n).." He looked over at me with a small smile, and I frowned at him.

"Right, right." She leaped over to me, and began untying my arms. "Why would Bella do this?"

"Thats not Bella." I sighed, "She possessed." I felt the rope loosen, and I shook my arms slightly.

"Possessed? How?"

"There was this girl a few years back. A demon girl. She loved Gar." I glanced over at him, noticing him staring back at me, "But, Gar loved me. And she wanted revenge. She tried to kill me numerous times, by fire, water, throwing me off the Titans' Tower.. She wouldn't give up until she was locked up. I guess she.. found a loophole." I was eventually free from the rope, and I rubbed my aching wrists. I got to Gar and pulled off the tape on mouth. He hissed in pain and gazed at me. I grabbed the knife near Tyler and began slicing the rope.

"Im sorry for what I said.. I didn't mean to upset you or put you down." He sighed. I didnt say anything, I just kept cutting at the rope, "Please say something." He whispered.

"I dont completely forgive you yet. I mean, you- you.. you repeated my past. You know what happened to me, how could you do that?" Tears pricked my eyes. I dared to let them fall, because I knew I had done the same deed to him.

"I felt like.. I.. I didnt think you loved me anymore. It was a moment of weakness!" I watched his lip tremble, as the ropes dropped to the floor. He massaged his wrists like I did, and glanced up at me with a sorry expression. Something flickered in his eyes, and his guilt fled like a cat out of water. It was replaced with fear.

"What are you-?" I turned around, only to feel the rope I just untied wrap around my neck. I could feel my breath leaving my body, as I clawed at my culprit.

"Die." Raven/Bella whispered in my ear. My eyes rolled backwards slightly and black dots prickled my vision. Gar hollered and tackled her, as I dropped to my knees and clutched my throat. I coughed, regaining my ability to breathe, and I watched them.

Gar hit her repeatedly in the face, "Dont-" Punch. "-Mess-" Slap. "-With my-" Punch to the jaw. "-girlfriend!" Punch in the nose. She shoved him off of her, and he rolled away, slamming into the pillar he was just untied to. He looked dazed, shaking his head slightly. She reached for the gun nearby, and I quickly kicked it away.

"Fucking bastard!" She sneered, snatching at my foot and sending me tumbling to the floor. She grabbed the knife beside my head and held it over me, "Why wont you just die already?!" My hands gripped hers, as the knife hovered over my chest.

"Never!" I growled, pushing the knife back at her. I turned my head slightly to see Yuki's body laying unconscious on the floor. Tyler had managed to crawl over to her and stay at her side. I used my feet to push her off of me, and I saw her head bang against the floor.

"(Y/n), Run! Now!" Tyler screamed at me.

"What about you?!" I rushed over to Gar.

"We'll get out.." He looked over Yuki's body, "Somehow...Go!" I snagged the knife from Raven/Bella, and grabbed Gar's hand.

"Lets go.." I whispered, running off with him.
