Once more, i remind you: I only own Phoenix, Slycat, Madison, Hanukkah, & Black Blood. The others (sadly to me) are not my creation. Neither is the Zanbatoh or the battle cries, Koya, Kona, &Kya. They belong to a girl called Sueng Mina in the game Soul Blade. But I made up the Flame Zanbatoh. The usual R&R (NO FLAMES, Please!)

Note to readers: You may use my characters ONLY if you remember a disclaimer telling that they belong to me AND if you're sure you know their, LIFE, ATTITUDE, FEELINGS, AND Personalities! THANX!

Chapter Four:

After a whole day of Black Blood's 'niceness', Raven could barely stand on her feet for a second. Suddenly, Black Blood appeared. "Raven! My BFF!"

"BFF?" Raven certainly wasn't amused.

"Yeah! And I just got a new perfume!"

"You wear perfume?"

"Yeah, sure, everyday!" Phase Three! "Wanna smell it? Oh please, please smell it! You'll love it!"

Phoenix was walking around the corner and heard these words. "Oh no! Phase Thres!" {U r prob'ly wondering why Phoenix is giving the Phase numbers their Spanish names? 2 say the truth, She and I don't really no.}

"Do I have to?"

"Yes! We're BFF's! Go on, smell it!"

"Fine. But remember, after this, i don't do perfume." She winced but lowered her head to smell it. Phoenix ran, but was too late.

"I think I'll go to bed early..."

"Raven! Hold on! Don't-" Raven disappeared into her room, "fall for it." 'Great.'

{Raven's Dream that Night}:

I see Phoenix. And she's heading right into a trap our father set! Maddy and all of my friend are all down! It's up to me! What is this? Ah! Fire- black fire- swirling around me! Phoenix! My words won't come out! No- Father has her in his grasp! He's squeezing her-tight! I cannot move! Phoenix! Can't you hear me? Her voice! What's it saying? "Raven! Beware of Black Blood!" Black Blood? Who is she? Now I remember! My 'BFF'. Or is she an enemy? I am so confused! Father! He's dropping Phoenix! "Too Late, Raven. She's dead, and now you're mine once more!" No! No! "Yes, Raven Yes!" No! No! I won't believe it! I can't believe it! Phina- dead? NO!

"NO!" Raven woke up, trembling. She didn't feel very well. Her scream had drawn all of her friends into her room and Phoenix woke up. Wait a minute- her scream? She didn't do screaming! It was her scream?!? Scary.

"Oh, BFF! Raven, Are you Okay? Here, I'll help you..." black Blood's fang appeared, with a deadly shade of green. It was Soul Acid! Black Blood was a Soul Vampire! that's what Phoenix was trying to tell her! "I'll help you put you out of your misery, I mean!"

"Phoenix! stab her with your zanbatoh!" Hanukkah screamed to Phoenix.

Phoenix touched her necklace and said, "I have somethin' better! Flame Zanbatoh of Azarath!" A larger version of the zanbatoh, blazing with fire, materialized in Phoenix's hands.

She ran in front of the bed, "go through me, first!"

"Phoenix, You must stab her in her right side of her chest! Take this vile and fill it halfway with her blood!" Hanukkah threw a bottle to Phoenix.

"Koya!" Phoenix quickly followed directions and threw Black Blood's blood to Raven. Raven got up weakly, but fell(but she caught it). Phoenix saw where she got her name: her blood was black.

Black Blood Shrunk into a harmless witch.

"Phoenix! You did it! See, the reason why I chose here to be a heroine at because of Raven. I knew Raven would make my cousin pissed. And I knew you were skilled and powerful enough to break Black blood's spell. She was a witch, but my boyfriend, Sorrow, tricked me into turning Black Blood into a Soul Vampress. You broke the spell and I'm taking her back to 1862. She knew what I intended to do, but she hated Raven and she had to follow the Soul Vampa rules."

"You will stay, won't you? You will return your cousin and come back? Oh, please!" Starfire begged.

"I'm sorry, but the only reason I came was to save Beauty."

"Beauty? Isn't that what she called you? I may have been unconscious, but I sensed words."

"Yes, it is. She tried not to remember who she really was. It's an SV's trait: stubbornness."

The Titans were on the roof, watching Beauty and Hanukkah disappear to their own time. (Phoenix was holding Raven because she was still weak.)
