Chapter 1 This Isn't Right
(Raven POV)
All I was doing was trying to meditate on the roof when Beast Boy interrupted me.
"What is it Beast Boy?" I asked.
"Robin said there's something up, we all need to come see it, now," Beast Boy said.
"Do I have to right now?" I asked.
"Yes, it's urgent," Beast Boy said.
"Fine, I'm coming," I said getting to where it technically was the living room.
"What is so urgent that it had to interrupt my meditation?" I asked.
"Weird creatures unknown to the universe have arrived Earth, harming many of the citizens," Starfire said.
"Do we know what they are exactly?" I asked.
"No, even my database doesn't know," Cyborg said.
"But we know one thing," Robin said showing a blurred image of a hooded girl in a black cloak, "we have no idea of the connection but when she showed up, the creatures showed up as well."
"Why not track her then?" I asked.
"It's impossible to Raven, no matter what we try we can't find her," Beast Boy said, "She's here one moment, and gone the next. She's like a ghost."
"So your saying is we have no idea of how to find her then," I said.
"Not exactly," Robin said showing some footage, "it seems whenever these creatures are around, she shows up, but then, we have no idea what happens."
"So then what?" I asked.
"You're going to find her," Robin said.
"What? Why me?" I asked.
"Well I sorta promised Aqualad a race," Beast Boy said.
"I need to recharge my power cells," Cyborg said.
"I'm expecting a gift from Tamaran," Starfire said.
"Okay, okay I get it, I'll go find her," I said leaving.
(Xion POV)
Okay I am completely scared right now, I have no idea where I am and the heartless are after me. Where could I go, I have no idea where, I wasn't really certain what to do, but I've been keeping my hood up. I really was lost. Even worse, I can't go home, the Dark Corridors, they aren't working here. I was forced to leave the worlds touched by Kingdom Hearts.
(Raven POV)
Levitating through Jump City, nothing suspicious yet. Then I see a flash of clothing, it was a cloak that trailed the hooded girl, the one I was looking for.
"Stop please wait," I said after touching the ground walking up like a normal person would.
Hesitating a bit, she looked at me I couldn't see her eyes that cloak was good to conceal her identity, and then she ran off.
"Please wait," I said running after her, "I just want to talk."
"Ta… Talking… its useless," she said, continuing to run, "It won't… change my past."
"What are you talking about?" I asked, this time going in front of her so she couldn't continue forward.
"It's none of your concern," she said, trying to leave, turning around but she didn't move.
I looked over her shoulder, seeing what it was, those strange creatures. Wait, Robin said she'd come to them, but here, it seems the opposite.
"Oh great, not again," she muttered, "I hope you're ready for this."
I was confused by what she meant. With a flash of light, a sword with a key-shaped end, some sort of guard and a chain came to her hands. Then she went head on, fighting those same creatures. Then somehow, one the size of a skyscraper came to form, seeming to look at me, then going on to fight the giant one, I assumed she wanted me to help.
Uncertain of what I really should do, I just stayed a good distance away watching her after it slashed me on the stomach; I really shouldn't have to get involved with this. But it also seemed she was and wasn't doing well. In the end the giant creature was I was assuming killed with a floating light sphere floating up the sky.
Looking at my target, I was surprised, with her blade raised up green glowing vines and a lotus appeared above her. What was that about? Turning towards me, I couldn't tell why but with a glance she began walking away.
"Wait where are you going?" I asked.
"Somewhere where they won't find me," she said.
"They?" I asked.
"Those creatures, the heartless, are after something I have, I have to protect it," she said then looking at me, "You're hurt!"
"What, oh it's nothing," I said.
"No, it's something," she said muttering something.
Instantly, I felt like I was better, like I wasn't wounded in the first place. Even my clothes were repaired.
"How did you do that?" I asked before she had a chance to leave again.
"It's something I learned, before I came here," she said.
"You're not from Jump City?" I asked.
"So this is what this place is called? I'm not from here," she said.
"Where are you from?" I asked.
"You don't need to know. I can't go back after all," she said and left.
Great, I was so close to finding out who she was. Might as well head back, I have nothing else to do anyways.
"Well… wait where is she?" Beast Boy asked.
"I got the medical kit, wait, you're not wounded," Cyborg said.
"What happened out there?" Robin asked.
"Look I found her and was able to follow her for a while, then the creatures, or as how she called it, the heartless, came out after us, she said that they are after something she has," I said, "and I was wounded but she somehow healed me like it never happened."
"That's some tale you're telling," Robin said, "did you at least get a chance to see her face?"
"No, her hood concealed it well," I said, "I couldn't catch a glimpse."
"We'll continue to look out for any sightings of her, if you do, radio the others," Robin said.
Great, she'll be in a lot worse with everyone after her. But I was certain, that she was like us, but something told me she wasn't. Something wasn't right.
