Wicked Game

Prologue

Everything was still and silent. Just like the calm before a terrifying storm. The kind of eerie calm that would make one's hairs stand on end in suspense and heart pound in freight. But a dark teen didn't know what to feel at the given moment. She was sure she was asleep, but her mind didn't remember when she succumbed to slumber. Then, as if someone flipped on a light in a pitch black room, images were suddenly everywhere. Her feet were now ankle deep in a red sticky substance, the air was hot and humid. And the building she was inside of, was all but condemned. Claw marks and blood spatters were the only decoration among the rubble. The ceiling was caved in, windows were shattered and furniture was ripped to shreds. But what made the girl's blood run cold was the fact the building was void of life. Her empathic powers would certainly tell her if even a single moth was among the destruction. But she felt nothing. Violet eyes darted back and forth around the room, searching for any sign that her powers had told her wrong, but found nothing.

However, her senses told her something else was with her, although her powers couldn't pick up a life force. She felt it's presence. She placed the feeling as if a thousand eyes were staring at her.

"Come out!" she demanded, but for an odd reason, she couldn't hear her own voice. But she knew she'd spoken. Fore she'd felt her vocal chords vibrate with sound. She felt the presence speak, feeling the vibrations through her feet. Then, as if someone hit a mute button, all the sound she'd been deprived of, came rushing back. So much it caused the girl to feel light headed.

"Half-breed!" she heard it shout. The pool of red liquid she'd been standing in began to bubble. It was then she'd realized it was blood. That thought alone made her sick. From the bubbling mess came a creature of a vile nature. It had fangs that was easily half her height, black bones that were scarcely covered by patches of charred skin and claws that were almost too big for it's body. But what caught the girl's attention was the two garnet eyes staring at her.

"Half-breed." it said again. "Beware the dead hour of the red moon."

Rachel Roth screamed and shot up in bed. Her heart racing and blood pulsing through her in waves. She'd broken out in a cold sweat, causing her cropped violet hair to stick to her neck and forehead.

"It was just a dream." Raven muttered to herself, glancing at the clock on her bedside table. 2:45am read in green neon numbers. Still wanting to prove to herself this was all a dream, she shuffled out of bed and out into the corridor of Titans Tower. All was quiet, except for the soft hum of the security system. Her bare feet padded softly next door, opening the metal door slightly to peek inside.

An identical version of herself laid peacefully in the bed. Raven sighed in relief. At least her sister wasn't having the same dream. On the floor next to the bed was an inflatable mattress that was occupied by two other girls. One was of normal height, with ivory skin, and raven locks. The other was considerably shorter with mocha skin. Her boy-cut hair matched that of her sibling.

'Falcon, AJ and Joy are safe.' Raven thought to herself as she willed her heart to calm down. 'Might as well check on the others while I'm up.'

The dark teen continued her trek to the next room. Easing the door open, she was met with Starfire's silhouette laying backwards on the overly plush pink bed. Next came Robin, then Cyborg, Swift, Bohusk, then Beast Boy. But when violet eyes scanned the messy room, no Beast Boy was to be found. Images of that horrid monster flashed through her mind's eye and horror was instantly restored to her. Running through Titan's Tower in just her black pj shorts and a purple t-shirt sounded like the perfect opening to Steven King's newest horror film. However, most of King's characters weren't equipped with unearthly powers. Her magic told her the changeling was a story above her, so she phased upwards.

Garfield was humming the chorus to 'Raise Your Glass' as he rummaged through the fridge for the tofu ribs that Cyborg had hidden from him. He was so caught in his tune he didn't hear his teammate phase through the floor.

"Beast Boy!" she shouted, the second her magic dispelled. Her outburst caused the boy in question to jump, thus hitting his head on the refrigerator.

"Oww!" he whined, holding his head in his hands, forcing back tears. "What the hell, Rae?" he asked once he'd found his voice.

"I thought you were in trouble..." she answered meekly, somewhat embarrassed by her irrational conclusion.

"The only trouble I'm in is this concussion you gave me!"

Raven sighed and drew closer, placing her hands atop his head. A bright blue glow immited from them, healing the slight bruise.

"So, mind telling me why you came bustin' in here like a bat outta hell?" Gar asked once the throbbing had subsided.

"I...had a dream..."

"Nightmare?" Raven nodded.

"I saw a monster...it told me to beware the dead hour of the red moon."

"I'm guessing this isn't one of your Wicked Scary induced dreams is it?"

"No. It felt so real...like it was trying to make contact with me from another world just so it could tell me this."

"Wanna wake Falcon and have a sayance or something?" Beast Boy half laughed, but Raven's intense stare made him clam up again.

"I'm serious Garfield. Someone...or something is after me. I don't know how, or why, but I'm not taking this lightly."

"I know, Rae. And you have me and the others behind you all the way."

Raven knew his words to be true, she could feel the sincerity radiating from him. But she couldn't help but feel worried. Her violet eyes then flickered to the clock on the microwave. 2:59am flashed in and out on the device. Her worry then graduated to panic. She had to warn them before it was too late.

"What's wrong?" the changeling asked, noticing the change in Raven's face.

"The dead hour." she whispered. "It's said to be the hour when demons can cross over and walk free among us...it starts at 3 in the morning."

Beast Boy's head whipped around to see the digital numbers instantly change to 3:00am. The second they changed, the entire tower began to shake.

"Hit the deck!" Gar shouted, grabbing his teammate and pulled her to the floor and under the kitchen counter. The shaking wasn't steady like an earthquake, rather the rumbling shake that came from heavy footsteps. Raven felt a bad omen pass through her and she shivered. Something was in the tower. Something bad.

The shaking stopped, followed by a scream. It wasn't high pitched, so it wasn't female.

"Who was that?" Beast Boy asked, his ears perking high to check for the smallest of foreign sounds. Before he could recollect what happened, Raven was out of his grasp and running down the hallways. She skidded to a stop outside of Robin's room where all the Titans seemed to have congrigated. The door was ripped off the hinges and thrown against the far wall. She stopped in time to see her sister's boyfriend exit the now trashed room.

"Bird Boy's gone." Bohusk spoke gravely.
