The Demon Hero, Razgriz (DHR) Part II

Chapter 1: OYL

She nodded, sniffled, and wiped her tears as she turned around to grab her bag. "Raven, Beast Boy… I wish you the best, all of you. I will return, I promise!" And before it got any harder than it already was for her she jumped off the edge of the roof and spread her wings catching the dusk's wind in her wings and soaring upwards. As she flew, her black wings began to shine and sparkle. In her wake she left a trail of glittering light. She smiled through the tears for her cause, for her friends.

One Year Later

A figure dressed in white stands atop a T-shaped tower, her long violet hair and white cloak waver slightly in the subtle wind. Staring up at the twilight above her she took a long deep breath in, holds it for a moment, and then exhaled slowly.

"There you are!" said a familiar, masculine voice that always warmed her heart. She turned and even before seeing him she began to smile.

"Been lookin' all over for you," he walked over to her and embraced her in a powerful hug as he always did. They had all grown up in the past year, most noticeably him. He looked like a young man now. He was a few inches taller than she was, a big change for her since she was a few inches taller than he was not very long ago, and he had a well-toned body. He had changed his uniform when he grew out of the old one, both physically and mentally; now it was mostly white with purple unlike his older black and purple uniform.

She loosened herself to look him in his deep green eyes and gave him a soft kiss, "Is everything okay?"

"Yeah, everything's fine. I just haven't seen you since you and Star took off to the mall this morning. And since she's been back for an hour now I was starting to get worried," he gave a nervous laugh and scratched behind his ear. It was an old habit that he probably would never get over.

'He's always so cute when he does that,' she thought.

She smiled and gave him another soft kiss, "I was just enjoying the sunset. The mall always stresses me out, even now, and it's always so relaxing up here," she had warmed up to the mall a bit since she had become more open with her emotions, ever so slowly and carefully, all thanks to him. That's not to say it still didn't overwhelm her on occasion.

He looked over at the setting sun, "I love it up here too. Lot of good memories… Like the first time admitting our feelings for each other. Shortly followed by our first kiss," they both smiled as he said this, "not to mention telling our friends about us. And last but not least; me finally getting some guts and proposing to you," he said as he gently took hold of her left hand and ran his thumb over the engagement ring. He had given it to her a mere month earlier.

"It's hard to believe…" This earned her a hurt look from her fiancé, "I didn't mean you, honey," she said quick as she hugged him tightly, resting her head on his chest, "It's just hard to believe something so wonderful would actually happen to me," He returned the hug immediately and held her closer, "That and a couple of years ago I would have never guessed you, of all people, would be the love of my life."

He chuckled a bit, "Yeah, feels like just yesterday you and I were fighting over tofu and tea, or you just wouldn't talk to me because of something I said or because I was telling you too many jokes."

"Yeah, like we still don't argue about your tofu," She joked, causing him to laugh even harder. She smiled and nuzzled her head into his chest. They held each other until the sun had finally gone down.

He finally loosened himself. "Well, dinner should be ready by now. C'mon," he said, softly towing her by both hands with him to the roof access.

She caught up with him, standing by his side now, and entwined their fingers together as he opened the door. She noticed his ears twitch and an uneasy feeling radiate from him, "What is it?" The uneasy feeling left him, replaced by concentration.

"I hear… Wings flapping…"

Her face went plain, "That's it?"

"Not bird wings… They're…different. Stronger… Bigger."

They both turned around and scanned the fading sky. After a few moments they saw a figure in the distance. It looked like a small black bird but grew bigger as it came closer and closer. Soon they saw the figure of a young woman. Their eyes widened as they began to recognize her and smiles crossed their faces.

She made a soft landing, her worn boots making a thud as she did, stretching her majestic black wings before folding them behind her. She wore a tight fitting black sleeveless bodysuit, over that was what looked like the remains of a red shirt that was barely holding itself together. She seemed exhausted, and she was panting like she had just been running a marathon. She must have been flying all day, if not longer.

"My friends…is it really you?" Her mysterious Russian accent hadn't broken over time. She smiled widely as she walked over to them, dropping her bag on the way.

Raven walked over to her with Beast Boy at her side, "We were about to ask you the same question, Razgriz."

As they reached her she enveloped her friends in a large hug, tears of joy and relief making their way down her cheeks.

"It has been a long time, my friends. A very long time."

To Be Continued.
