Just Until You Know...
This is my first FanFic so be nice, also things might be a little weird as I don't really know what I'm doing and it's almost midnight.
Also, a huge thanks to lija9090, who helped me get this story up by giving it an initial rating for me.

Computer messages
Disclaimer: Raven, Wraith and the Kali are not mine. Duh!
Wraith stood staring at the screen. Rebecca had sent him a message without knowing where he was, and more so, she had sent a SOS.
Rhys- this is Rebecca, i am HEX, need help, serpent hq- i am raven now.
Slowly, Wraith convinced Geoff, the leader of the Kali, to make a recon mission. Simple arms, blasters. They just had to hope they could get past security with out raising the alarm.
The operation had so far gone without a stitch, but where was Rebecca? They had searched the rooms that made sense to hide a girl in.
Finally Dinna suggested that they check the computer rooms to see if she was on camera. Luck was with them, there was a one-way life feed camera showing Jesson the serpent leader yelling at someone. The person was in a chair facing away from the lens.
Then with a slap Jesson stormed from the room giving them just enough time to duck out of the way before he came through. How ever there was still that person in the room. How could they look over the tapes if some one was guarding them? The Kali members stayed therefore an hour or two and nobody came and the person didn't leave. Wraith glared at the camera screen, waiting for them to just go. Then he blinked, Oh, duh Rebecca/Raven a hex. Dumb, dumb, dumb.
He slipped into the room silently and cut the video cable cord. Geoff must have seen him because he ducked in after Wraith. "What are you doing?" he hissed under his breath.
Wraith just shook his head and moved toward the chair. "Reb? Kid, that you?" he asked quietly in gang slang. Looking down, he saw the mop of tangled, matted greasy black hair bounce as thought the person had been caught sleeping on the job. The head didn't go farther than normal height, not even looking up at him. With a frown Wraith moved to kneel and noticed that the girl, for there was no way for it to be male, had their hands cuffed to the keypad of the main computer.
Dropping between them he knelt, pushing the girls hair aside and gasped when he saw his sister, a bruise across her cheek and a bit of tape over her mouth. Carefully he peeled the tape off her face and surveyed her thoroughly. Anger boiled in him as he saw Rebecca was malnourished and under weight with marks from various beatings and sleep deprivision. Restraints on her ankles, legs, hips, shoulders, and neck kept her still.
"Rhys?" her voice a mere croak.
"Sh, shh. Breath, relax." He hushed. Blasting her restraints away he realized the rest of the Kali had come in while they where talking and had blasted away her wrist cuffs and were now down loading the files from the computer.
Rebecca tried to stand, but being locked in place for so long had made her stiff and she collapsed into Wraiths arms with a cry, fainting. Wraith stood with Rebecca – Raven now – cradled to his chest. "Come on, let's get out of here," he said with a voice of ice.
Yes, I know, I said Raven is Rebecca. That is my thing I don't know if that he real name in the book, but Wraith is Rhys and since Rachel also starts with 'R', so does Raven's real name. Same with the names of the various Kali members, since their names aren't mentioned I used others that seemed to fit with those used in the book. Don't like DEAL WITH it.
I have no idea if I'll continue further with this fic, so I'm not going to mark it 'complete', but if you like it; sorry it will probably be a long time if ever before I update this.
