lostmoonchild: Yes, Im alive! Holy shit, its been so long since I last updated that I actually forgot where I was going with this story. Unfortunately I lost complete interest in the story until a friend of mine and I were talking and I got to thinking that Id better finish up the stories that Ive been working on before I get any bright ideas and start adding in new stories. Ive actually got a story or two on adultfanfiction that I think would work okay on this site so once Im done with what Ive already got on my plate then Ill start posting new stories.

Chapter Nine

Snarls left Alynns lips as she crouched, her nails pressing against the hard floor. Her eyes were glowing bright red as she bared her teeth in warning, her power swirling around her. "Call her off!" The boy shouted angrily at Raven only to find that his words were lost.

Fear pounded through Ravens body as she stared at her sister, knowing exactly what would happen to their half siblings. Theyd be killed and then then what would happen? Would she need to knock her sister unconscious or would she be forced to do worse? What would their friends do? Would they have her turned in as a murderer or would they look the other way?

Something told her that they were currently fighting against the instinct that told them to run away. That they didnt want to attract the female half-demons attention for any reason. "All around the cobblers bench, the monkey chased the weasel," Alynn sang as she vanished from sight. "The monkey stopped to tie his shoe..." The girl screamed as blood began spraying from her body. "POP!" The girl sank to the ground, her head almost completely severed from the rest of her body. "Goes the weasel."

"For the love of God, call her off!" The boy shouted in terror when Alynn began singing again. "Fuck this! Azarath! Azarath! Azarath!"

They stared as the boy vanished without a trace, snarls leaving Alynns lips as she tried to find the boy. "Sister. Sister, come here." Raven pleaded softly as she reached her hand toward her older sister. "Please come here."

"Are you nuts? She'll kill us!" Beast Boy said with a panicked look.

"Sister, please come here." Raven called as she lowered her hand. "Please, Sister, I'm so afraid. Please don't leave me."

Maybe it was the tone of Ravens voice or maybe it was the memory of the words she uttered only months before that brought Alynn some of her sense. The blue-haired teenager moved over to her sister and dragged her tongue across her sister's cheeks. "Mine." Alynn snarled softly as she lightly scraped her nails across Ravens arms. "Mine forever."

"Forever," agreed Raven. "Now please calm down. No one's harmed. You killed sister and brother went back to Azarath."

They watched as Alynn's eyes resumed their normal color and felt the air become clear once more. Breaths came easily as the feeling of suffocation went away, replaced by general ease. "Sister? Sister, what happened?" Alynn questioned with a panicked look as she looked at the blood on her hands. What happened? Whatd I do?!"

She fell backwards, her eyes wide with panic as she stared at her shaking hands. Everything was a blank beyond getting pinned against a wall and their siblings threatening them. Then their sister had threatened to eat Robin, one of Ravens closest friends, and then there was nothing! Something just snapped and she couldnt remember what had happened!

"It's okay, it's okay." Raven said softly as she pressed her forehead against her sister's. "Well go to Azarath to protect the humans that are here. We'll go back to Azarath and fight."

"We'll die."

"Then we'll die. Are you afraid to die, Sister, knowing that we're fighting for the ultimate good?"

"No."

"Are you prepared to cross over to the realm of the dead despite knowing that we may not pass into Heaven?"

"Yes." Alynn's answers were coming out in single breaths now as if Raven's questions were soothing her.

"Shall we avenge our fallen siblings and those that have lost their lives because of Trigon's cruelty?"

"Yes. We shall even avenge Mother."

"Yes," agreed Raven softly. "We'll leave tonight when the moon hides her face from the world's eyes."

"Our time."

"Yes, our time."

They knew that it was wrong to look away from a crime being broken, but they couldnt really help anything. The war that they had been warned about was already spilling onto Earth and the only way that they could stop it was if they went to Azarath and tried to stop it there.

As soon as they told Raven that they were going as well, the teenage girl froze before yelling, "You are not stepping foot in Azarath!"

To see the look of anger and fear on her face and not see something blowing up was something surprising. "Look, Raven, Earth is our home too and we have to defend it." Robin said soothingly.

"No! The rules in Azarath are different than here! I can't let you risk your lives like this!" Raven shouted at them.

"Sister," Alynn said, her voice soft as she looked at her sister through half-lidded eyes. "We can take them to Grandmother. She'll make them understand just like she made us understand."

She didn't want them to go, the others saw, but they knew that Raven wasn't going to argue against her sister. "Alynn, please." Raven pleaded softly.

"It's what I want. Will you deny me what I want? You've seen Starfire's home planet, have you not? You know what Earth looks like, you've traveled this planet. Allow them the courtesy of seeing our home."

Raven looked anxious for a moment before nodding slightly. "We'll go to Grandmother." Raven answered with a nod before she looked at her friends. "Fine, well let you go but only on one condition."

"What is it?" Cybrog questioned.

"You won't argue when we say to do something."

They were about to argue when they saw something that they never thought they'd see. Rolling silently down one pale cheek was a solitary tear that told them how worried about them she was and how much she was hurting just by having them wanting to join a fight that wasn't even theirs to begin with.

lostmoonchild: I swear on my anime and manga collections that I'll attempt to update once or twice per week until this story is done since I get these bursts of writing energy that completely knocks out the entire world. So read and review, flames will be accepted and you can chew my butt out for leaving this story alone for so long. I am not worthy (seriously, I'm not blowing smoke here) of having so many people read this story and leaving behind a review to tell me what you think.
