A week later, Gotham General

Sara was putting on her jacket and signing discharge papers before Henry entered as she turned around, smiling. "Hey."

"Hi." Henry smiled but he had guilty look in his eyes.

Sara sighed, already knowing what was going on in his mind. "It's not your fault. Trigon took advantage of the darkness inside you. Besides, Lyla doesn't blame you for anything. You were as much of a victim as everyone else."

"It's not that." Henry said. "It's…" He considered his words. "In my life, there's only been a handful of people I let into my life so closely. Nicky, Riley, Barbara, Ashley, Mary. Then Oliver came, then Lyla, then Laurel, John, Roy, Thea…" He trailed off, turning to Sara. "Then you. But each time I let someone in, my life took a darker turn. And I've made so many bad calls that it put everyone in danger… there was something I wanted to do after Azrael. But then, there was the situation with Mercy, then Arkham… it never was the time to let go."

"What are you talking about?" Sara asked.

"Something I should have done a long time ago." Henry said. "And I'd be glad if you, Babs, Nicky and everyone came with me to Gotham Cemetery. It… it's probably gonna be the hardest thing I ever had to do in my life. And I'm not sure I can do this without you."

Sara smiled before she kissed him. "Of course. I'll always be here for you."


Elsewhere

"I can only imagine how you must be feeling." Roy said as he, Dick, Garfield, Constantine and Zatanna held a funeral for Angela.

"She gave up her life protecting me." Rachel sniffed, kneeling down as she put flowers at her mother's grave. "What am I supposed to do now?"

"We'll always going to be here if you need us." Dick assured her.

"Trigon may have been banished… but he'll come back. And we must be ready." Constantine said.

"I know." Rachel nodded.

"No matter what happens, we'll always be your family." Roy promised as he hugged Rachel, who hugged him back tightly.

"Thank you, Roy." Rachel smiled. "I don't know what I would have done without you."


House of Mystery

Rachel was reading some books before she sensed something watching her. In the shadows appeared some red eyes as she turned around but saw nothing but the books on the table as she sighed in relief. Rachel tried an incantation and in front of her appeared an astral apparition of a blonde woman in white gown.

"Hey, baby." Angela smiled.

"Hi, Mom." Rachel said, with smiles on her face and wet eyes.


Author's Note:

So, I hope you guys have enjoyed this story and hope I did well with Raven (Rachel Roth) in this. If I get another idea in The Dar(h)k War saga (which is very likely), I will write it, since this story series has gotten so popular over the past year.

So, what do you guys think?

Please review and let me know if you have been enjoying this story to its end.

With regards
