Disclaimer: uh, I'm writing a fanfic here guys.

YAY! A whole chapter just for Raven! Well it does have other people in it but the main character in this chapter is RAVEN! Oh whoops a bit ahead of self, that's next chapter. anyway

~~~ Chapter two: turned dangerous ~~~

Over at New Hope base things were settling down for the night in the normal areas of the base. However in the watch tower a group of people sat together around a table, wide awake. "From the tracking unit it seems that Raven is moving steadily east" Van Flyheight commented to the others at the table. "That's why Van we have come here, to guard this base. If everything is correct, this will be the next base that he attacks." Lance said, leaning back on his chair and stretching. "But if Raven goes in a straight line, he'll miss New Hope base by two miles." Fiona added, looking hopeful. "Nah, he'll need food and water Fiona, he'll have to stop here." "Ok!" Bit said excitedly, "lets run through the plan one more time shall we?" Lance moved to the large board. "We mustn't attack Ravens zoid until we know for certain that Halloweise isnt there because - Lance was cut off by a soldier running into the room "We're under attack!" the soldier yelled frantically



An hour before. "Raven?" "What is it?" Raven muttered sleepily, he had just been woken up from a very nice dream about killing Van and wasn't pleased. "Its so hot in here" Halloweise was half sitting up with the blanket lying at her feet. Raven got up slowly and crawled over to her. "You've still got a fever" he said holding his hand to her forehead "My heads sore, and my ribs" Halloweise moaned "Well that's to be expected" Raven replied looking down at the floor. All of a sudden a midnight black tail whipped from the corner and cuffed Raven around the head. "Stupid tin dinosaur" Raven was annoyed that he didn't see the tail in time to avoid it. He turned his attention back to Halloweise. Finding a spare cloth he wet it with the remaining water and wiped her arms, head and stomach with it then went back to bed. There really was nothing else he could do, he'd never had a high fever before and he didn't know what to do. Raven was woken ten minutes later by a noise. He walked over to check on Halloweise and realised that she was crying. "Everything hurts Raven" she whispered "so thirsty" "Just hold on ok? I'm going to that republican base I'll be back soon, don't worry" and with that he exited the cave.



Raven reached the republican base in just under half an hour. He really didn't want to leave Halloweise alone, she could die, but he didn't have any other choice. Scaling the wall he found he was in a court yard. Well he hadnt predicted that! All republican bases were the same. Creeping along the wall he considered carefully, he'd have to 'deal with' any opposition he faced coz it just wasn't his style to beg for food and water, if Van - "OW!" Raven exclaimed, he'd just bashed his head agaisnt something hard. Reaching up and touching it he found it to be - a door handle? Raven felt an instant blush across his face, the humiliation! Raven the dark one did NOT bang his head agaisnt door handles. Deciding to ignore this incident he opened the door and entered. It was a zoid hangar and the perfect zoid to take out this base was standing just a few metres away from him. Climbing into the cockpit of the zoid he fired a few shots at a wall to alert the republicans that he was here.

Van and the others literally tumbled down the stairs of the watch tower to get to their zoids. They exited the hangar and saw to their dismay that a large section of New Hope base had already been destroyed. "Raven" Van muttered to himself

Ordinarily Raven would have been able to destroy this base and everyone in it in a few seconds if he had his GenoSaurer, this Lightning Sykes just wasn't up to it. Within seconds he was surrounded by zoids. A blue blade Liger came charging into the circle and its cockpit hatch lifted up. "Give it up Raven" Van said grimly Opening the cockpit hatch of his zoid Raven stood up ready to make a snide comeback at Van., but it didn't come. Instead he fell from the zoid and landed with a thump on the ground. Van and a guy he didn't know advanced towards him. He just remained sitting there, staring at the ground. Normally he would have been fighting back, resisting but he couldn't. he was so tired, he couldn't even move. Van stopped directly in front of him, standing silently then pulled out his handcuffs. "I'm arresting you on the charges of the murders of hundreds of people and the destruction of republican bases." He cuffed Raven then the republican soldiers led him away.
