For the last few months Raven has taken Jon under her wing and taught him the art of magick… from her view. From ancient magickal languages to modern potions he absorbed everything. Occasionally they would venture into the mist realm to find forbidden spell books. They would inevitably run into a Mist realm creature they would have to fight and defeat in order to claim their prizes. As a reward for helping her Raven would reward him with sex. They were currently in Raven's room with Jon practicing how to conjure dark fire. They were both skyclad as Jon tried to focus at the task at hand. He had since gotten used to being skyclad around people. Or the people closest to him.

"Yes that's it Jon focus. Let the energy flow from you. Let it manifest on the physical plane." Raven was circling Jon as he held a flaming skull between his hands. He had recently begun learning how to conjure magickal energy in the form of attacks. "That's it Jon! You…" the skull suddenly exploded covering them both in embers. "You almost had it…" Raven signed as she blew soot of her hair. "Let's take a quick break and try again." She laid down on her bed and stretched letting out a long groan. Jon sat down at the edge and flopped backwards. "Who knew learning magick was such hard work?" he groaned. He sat up and turned to her. "Hey Rave?"

"What is it my boy? She asked as she relaxed.

"I just want to thanks for teaching me. I never knew I was capable of doing this stuff and I think you're a great teacher" he said in an embarrassed tone. Raven smiled warmly at him. Despite being so strong and a more than capable warrior he would still act like this embarrassed, shy child who always looked up to everyone. "And thank you Jon for letting me teach you, along with letting me occasionally play with you." She winked at him sexily. He crawled over to Raven, wanting to take in her beauty. He still couldn't believe that Tarot was okay with this. Letting Raven teach him and fuck her senseless. She must have gotten used to the idea of sharing her since he would probably be the dad of their children in the future. He began to trace his fingers over her tattoos. First over the spider legs markings on her soft full lips. She licked the tip of his fingers as they moved over her mouth. He moved his fingers down to the snake skeleton tattoo that traced over every curve of her body. He couldn't believe that such a woman existed in his world. A beautiful and deadly witch with such a body. As he moved his fingers he accidently caused Raven to shriek in laughter as he touched her ticklish spot. When he discovered that she could be tickled he flashed an evil grin. Raven's eyes bulged when she realized what he was thinking. "You wouldn't dare…" she threatened. Jon suddenly lunged at her tickling her with all of his might. She shrieked in laughter as he continued his onslaught. "NO! STOP! STOP!" she yelled. Hearing her laugh made Jon laugh as well as she rarely laughed unless it was his expense. "NO! I'LL KILL YOU! I'LL FUCKING KILL YOU!" she laughed so hard she nearly peed herself. Jon finally grew tired of this game and stopped leaving her panting and sweating. "You are going to pay for that Jon" she said darkly. Jon shrugged at her empty threat. Jon wanted to relax but there was something he needed to ask her for a long time and now that she was happy he could get a good answer. "Raven there's something I need to ask you. Something really important…" Raven scowled at him. She had been here before… "You can forget it Jon! I like you but I am not doing anal with you! If you want to play in the mud you can go find Boo Cat!"

"No it's not that" Jon rolled his eyes. "There something else I need your help with. Something I've been meaning to do for years but never had the chance to…."

The graveyard was deathly silent. Most of the ghost either sleeping or wandering in other places. The ones that decided to stay sensed the gravity in the air and decided to stay in their graves. The winter night was cold and crisp. Jon and Raven were standing in the center. Jon was in his Skeleton Man costume while Raven wore her Dress of Shadows. "This is where you want it to happen?" she asked.

"Yes" Jon nodded. "If we're going to fight them we need the home field advantage. Do we have everything we need?"

"Of course we do" she gestured to a basket filled with magickal ingredients. "Alright then. Let's do this…"

They drew a magickal circle in with complex symbols and enchanted chalk. As Raven bent over to put the finishing touches Jon couldn't help but observe her backside as she worked. He was not much of an ass man but seeing hers outlined from her dress was enough to stir the beast inside him. "Are you done with your side Jon?" She asked. "Oh...Uh...Yeah I'm done." He stammered. She giggled at him as he acted like a horny school boy. Suddenly a cold ran through Raven as chills went up her spine. "Well, well. Long time no see Pale Face…" a voice whispered coldly. Raven turned quickly to see would dare to scare her and her eyes became red with hostility. "YOU!" she shrieked. Standing in front of her was the ghost that stole from her years ago: Jon's ex-girlfriend. The Crypt Chick. Crypt Chick had a wide smile on her face but had no warmth to speak of. Suddenly Raven's hands lit up with green fire. Her intent to double kill this ghost bitch was clear. "I've waited a long time to find the person who stole from me. And now here you are. Now I'm going to make sure that you stay dead." Crypt Chick simply laughed at her. She still had that short temper of hers. "Can't let go of an old grudge huh?" she cracked her knuckles ready for a fight. "Alright bitch. You want to go? LET'S GO!" She flew towards Raven with intent to rip her heart out and make her look at it. Jon leapt between them despite the danger it put him in. "THAT'S ENOUGH" he yelled. His hands suddenly glowed dark blue with fire as he forced both of them to stop. Luckily both of the girls seemed to have enough restraint to hold back and not strike the man they had feelings for. "You know this thief?!" Raven shrieked.

"Of course he knows me Gag Boobs! What are you supposed to be? His new booty call? Are those even real?" she smirked as she pointed at her chest. Raven was already seething at her but her comment towards her breasts nearly pushed her over the edge.

"BRANDI! THAT'S ENOUGH!" Jon yelled with such ferocity that he surprised them both. He turned to Raven. "To answer your question Raven yes. I do know her. She's my ex. I've been letting her live here because she can't move on…" she then turned to Crypt Chick. "And as for you Brandi, she's not my booty call. She's my teacher. I told you about her."

Crypt Chick turned her back to them obviously done with this conversation. "Whatever…" she said. She disappeared without a word…

Jon turned to Raven. "I'm sorry about that Raven. I know I already told you all about her, but I didn't think she would bother us like that. I thinks she's getting upset over the people I have in my life. I try to help her but she seems stuck in her ways."

Raven rolled her eyes at how noble Jon could be sometimes. "Let's just get this over with so we can go back to my place." she winked as she stepped back to her side of the circle. "Ready, my boy?" Jon walked to the circle and took a deep breath. "I'm ready." Raven raised her hands into the air and began to chant words so ancient. Jon closed his eyes and focused on who he wanted to summon. The ones that got away all those years ago and haunted the back of his mind. "COME FORTH!" they yelled into the night sky. Then, a flash of light….

Standing in the center were five nurses wearing revealing nurse clothing. But there was something… odd about them. Their skin was grey and clammy as though they have never seen sunlight. Some of them were bleeding profusely from different parts of their bodies. There clothes were tattered and torn with some of theme showing underwear. They held scalpels stained with blood. Each one looked around trying to piece together where they were and saw Jon standing in front of them. The one with in the center smirked at her old enemy. "Well, well, well, if it isn't the Skeleton Man. It's so good to see you again."

"Wish I could say the same for you. Looks like you were in the middle of another 'operation'." By operation he meant harvesting body parts from still living people. These nurses were once donators who wanted their body parts to help others when they were gone. But they changed their minds and came back from the dead looking for their lost parts. Killing innocent people to get their organs back. Jon had already lost two people to the crazed spirits and he was not going to lose anymore.

"Yes. We finally tracked down the bitch who stole Kimberly's breasts." She gestured to the blonde on her right with the bleeding chest. "She was quite a fighter and we had to get our hands dirty but just before we about to make the initial incision we were suddenly pulled from her room. I must say I'm a bit surprised. I didn't think you could summon us from California."

Jon cracked his knuckles ready for a fight. "I had some help. Luckily for you, you don't have to worry about that for too long. Because I'm making sure that you five never hurt anyone else again."

"So these are the nurses you kept whining about Jon. I have to say, the nurse thing is a bit clichéd but whatever. I'm sure they didn't get to choose which suit they were going to die in." The nurses turned to the new voice and their eyes widened at the vision. Raven simply waved at them not considering them that much of a threat.

"My god! That figure…"

"Those eyes…"

"That perfect skin… She's beautiful.

"Why thank you!" Raven chuckled. "I try… though not that much. I don't know why you hate them so much Jon. They don't seem that bad. A little misguided maybe…" she walked closer to them to really get a good look at the ghosts not noticing that they were brandishing sharp weapons.

"Raven stop! Their dangerous!" but it was too late. One of them backhanded Raven knocking her to the floor. Before she could retaliate, her mouth was covered with a cloth and fell unconscious…

The head ghost turned to Jon with a sadistic grin. "Good news Skeleton Man! You don't have to worry about us killing anyone else. We've decided to go for the big prize and harvest from your friend here. They began to circle the sleeping witch with their scalpels at the ready.

Jon ran towards them ducking and dodging their swipes and threw them aside. Luckily there were solid enough to touch. He picked up Raven and ran off into the night…

Raven woke up deliriously in a nearby park. The streetlights glowed dimly. Jon sat over her. "Raven are you okay?"

"I'm fine Jon. I can't believe those ghost bitches chloroformed me! When I get my hands on them I'm going to double kill them!" she growled.

"We've got bigger problems Rave. Those girls got the idea that you could be a donor. They might try to cut you to pieces to look good."

Raven grinned at him. "They can try but they should probably know. My flesh is no good unless I give it to them willingly."

"Yeah" Jon chuckled "I know from experience."

"How sweet of you to enjoy your last minutes with her. It's a shame such a creature has to die for the greater good."

Jon and Raven turned their heads to the nurses. They stood up ready for a fight.

"Are you sure you can stand and fight on your own Rave?"

"I'm just fine, my boy. It's them you should be worried about. Now that you have me on your side this shouldn't take too long." She looked forward at her opponents and steeled herself. "You bitches pulled a sneak attack on me last time. Let's see how you fight when you don't have any more tricks."

The head nurse smiled maliciously. "You know Jon. That ghost girl of yours gave us quite a fight. Along with that mangy dog of yours. Luckily we had some help. Suddenly the streetlights went out one by one. Shadows began to creep out and converge on the couple. Jon and Raven looked around in fear.

"You see we found some of your little ghost friends. The ones you kept locked because you though they were a danger. They weren't so happy at you caging them when all they wanted was to come back to life. So we let them go. We promised them that if they helped us get you two they could feed on your flesh while we get what we want from your girlfriend." The shadows began to take distorted shapes of people. Their fangs bared at the man who imprisoned them for so long.

"So Raven, since it looks like you are in a bad situation how about this? You surrender peacefully and we'll try to make this painless. Otherwise our angry friends here can drag your beaten corpse to us while they feast on your man. I highly suggest the former. We wouldn't want to bruise that body of yours." She and her henchwomen laughed.

Raven scowled at the nurses who were ruining her night with Jon. "You want my answer? Here's my answer! She pointed her finger at the center ghost and a green beam shot through her. As the nurse staggered back from the surprise attack. She flew forward at her enemies. "Not so fun when happens to you is it?!"

Jon smirked at his lover. "She was always so short tempered" he said to himself. He steeled himself as the shadows descended upon him…

For a while they fought bravely. Raven conjured spell after spell at her opponents causing them to light up in spectral fire. They were hurting but they wanted their prize. They stabbed at Raven with ferocity swiping from all directions until Raven passed out from the blood loss. Jon was not doing well either… he tried to cast the fire spell he learned from earlier but each time he almost had it he failed. The shadows clawed, tore and bit from all directions until he was knocked to the floor. They rose over him like a wave and began to envelop him in darkness. He tried to fight back but he was too weak and there was too many… The last thing he saw was the nurses descending upon their prize. They readied their knives as they lowered them down with intent to start with her eyes. And then darkness…

Jon was not ready to give up. He was not about to be eaten. He was not about to let his lover get sliced up like a Christmas ham. With all of his might he roared. Light began to leave his body. Growing brighter and brighter until it became fire. Light blue fire that enveloped the shadows on top of him burning them until there was nothing left. A pillar of fire shot from them as Jon stood up enveloped in light blue flames. The nurses looked up in shock at the skeleton man. For the first time in years they knew fear. He had look was that of pure determination as he walked towards them.

"You are not taking here from me!" he thrust his hands forward and shot a ball of spectral fire at the nurses. They screamed in pain as their clothes burned from their bodies. Their skin melted until they were nothing but bones. As their bones disintegrated Raven was left untouched from the flames unconscious. The nurses were gone. All that was left was the scalpels they used still glowing red hot. Jon ran towards Raven and placed his fingers on her neck. She still had a pulse. Jon picked her up. "I need to get her home. Get her into a healing cauldron." He muttered. The flames on his back began to grow and take shape until they took on the appearance of wings. They had the appearance of the skeletal structure of crow's wings which surprised Jon. He didn't think he was ready to learn flying magick yet. "I guess this beats walking." he thought he bent his knees and with one small leap he soared off into the night…

Raven groaned as she woke up. She looked around and she discovered she was in her bedroom. "What the...? What the hell happened? The last thing I remembered were those nurse bitches…"

"Don't worry Rave. They've been taken care of." Jon was sitting in a nearby chair, keeping watch of her while she slept. "Amazing how one quick dip in those healing cauldrons can heal a girl up so fast? Then again I did kind of heat it up on my own." He held up his hands and fire began to emanate from the palm of his hand. Raven simply stared at him. She knew he was powerful but she didn't think she would catch on so quickly. "Jon…" Raven practically whispered his name.

Don't worry. I'm still your boy. And I still need a teacher. Now that we know what I can do I need someone who can teach me how to focus this. I'm kind of afraid I might burn down my house by accident." He said nervously. Raven simply grinned at him and chuckles. So powerful… yet such a child.

"Well Jon it looks like we have a lot of work ahead of us. We'll need to find out just how this fire of yours works. Along with how much you can heal on your own with it. But we had enough excitement and danger for one night. Come on let's celebrate your newfound power." She patted the space next to her indicating her desires. Jon rolled his eyes. Barely conscious for five minutes and already horny…

As they kissed Jon didn't seem to notice that Raven grabbed a pair of magick canceling handcuffs from between her mattresses. Nor did he notice her slapping them on him. "R-Rave? What are you doing?" Raven sat on top of him with a sadistic grin. "What's the rule of the witches Jon? Whatever you do, comes back to you threefold! She conjured a black feather with full knowledge of what she was going to do with it. Jon begged for mercy as she descended upon her prey…
