Chapter 3
~Crecy's POV~
It's been a few days since Raven was let into our house. She's been mostly quiet, and observant. It was strange. She started watching me closely. I felt like I was being analyzed. I didn't think this was normal, but kept my thoughts to myself, since I seemed to be the only one ho realized it. I was just dating Regu at the time, since I was old enough to search for potential mates. (Heh, as weird as that sounds to me right now. We're on earth! Not Vegeta-sei for Kami's sake!)
I was outside sitting on my balcony, just thinking. It was night and the view of the stars was perfect. I sighed as I thought. I always did this; it was almost like a ritual. I looked down to see Raven walking outside; she looked around then walked across the front lawn and into the woods that surrounded the house. I decided to follow, so suppressing my Ki; I floated just above the treetops, then landed on a branch while she stopped in a clearing. My eye's widened as the same guy as before walked out in front of her. I couldn't hear what they were saying, but I wish I could. Even with saiyan ears, the distance and low tone of their conversation kept me from doing so.
I watched them, then suddenly they looked around suspiciously. I leaned back into the shadows as they scanned the trees. They didn't see me, but I could tell that they sensed my presence. This wasn't good. But what were they up to? I needed to find out. But what could I do? I scowled as I realized that Raven was getting ready to come back into the house and I needed to get back before she noticed that I had followed her. I jumped from branch to branch, not making a sound; I saw the house and used my speed to get into my room without anyone noticing. I lie on my bed and began to think about what I just saw.
'What was she doing out there? And why was she talking to the guy. I thought he wanted to kill her. There's something going on and I intend to find out what. I don't like the way this looks.' My thoughts were interrupted as someone opened the door. Raven came in and smiled at me.
"Hey. I'm heading for bed. Night." She said then walked to her side of the room and got into her bed.
"Night." I said as I faced her while lying more comfortably under the covers of my bed. 'I know there's something going on. But what? I won't let my guard down around her in till I know what's what.' My thought started to slow down, as my train of thought was broken while I drifted off into my dreams.

è Next morningç
I woke up to find Raven not in her bed. I quickly got up and threw on some clothes before walking casually down stairs. I didn't want the rest to worry unless I knew something was up.
I walked into the Kitchen to find Raven making breakfast and my friends all sitting at the table ready to eat. Cado was drooling while waiting for the food, Asper was reading the paper, Regu was sitting there and Maia and Chirusa were talking. I took my seat next to Regu and Asper. Asper still thought of me as his baby sister and wouldn't let me stay alone with Regu for more then 5 minutes. Well, even then he was reluctant, even though we've known him almost our whole lives.
Raven looked up at me and said, "Oh I'm sorry, I forgot that was your place. I set you up over there." She pointed at the chair that was at the beginning of the table. It was a different chair that had been shoved into place for the extra seat. "You don't mind, do you? The chair was hurting my back the other day."
"No, Its okay. I'll move. We can find you another chair later" I answered, then stood up, bent down and kissed Regu lightly on the lips and moved to the new spot. Raven sat herself down in my usually seat and we started eating. I didn't know where she got the uncomfortably part from. The chair was just as comfortable as the other chairs at the table. At least I saw no difference. What was she trying to do? Little did I know that this was just the beginning.
After breakfast, we were going to head out and go to the movies. I was going with Regu and everyone else was going to tag along because Asper and Cado wouldn't let me go with him alone. They turned it into trip for all of us. Which got both of us very annoyed.
We headed down to the movie theater and were looking at the titles to see which one we wanted to see.
"Lets see that one!" I exclaimed as I pointed to the "Reign of Fire" poster. (I know that came out last summer, but the movie was really good… so… yeah…)
Regu nodded and said, "Sounds good to me."
Eventually, we all agreed, with only a slightly reluctant Raven.
"I'm going to get a drink, save me a seat." They nodded and I walked over to the concession stand and paid for my drink, then walked over to the movie. I walked in and searched for my friends, I looked around the already dark theater and struggled to find their faces.
"Hey, Babe, why don't you come sit over here with me?" The guy I was standing next to grinned.
"No, leave me alone." I replied in a deadpan tone.
"Oh, so that's how it is." He smirked and placed his hand on my ass.
I growled, grabbed his hand and jerked him up from his seat. I throw him out into the front and out of the movie. My actions and my flare of Ki got the attentions of my friends as they stood up. I walked over to them, and looked at their faces.
"What did you do that for?" Asper asked.
"He was touching me." I answered then walked down the row and sat next to Regu.
They seemed to sigh and Regu wrapped his arm around me. I rested my head on his chest as the movie continued. Some where along the movie, I saw Raven, who was sitting on the other side of Regu, hold back a scream and turned her head into Regu. He looked surprised, but then shrugged. At the end of the movie, I looked over to see Raven clutching onto MY boyfriends arm and burying her face in it. Regu seemed to into the movie to really notice.
I suppressed growl then whispered to her, "Hey, Raven. The movie's almost over, why don't you head out and we'll meat you outside the movie entrance."
She turned to me and said, "I don't want to be out there alone. Regu?" He looked down out her, not really liking having the movie interrupted. "Will you come outside with me? I don't want to be out there alone."
"You know, I'll go." Turning to my boyfriend, I said, "You go ahead and watch the movie and tell me how it ends, okay?"
He nodded thankfully and kissed me. "I'll tell you all about it, and when it comes out, I'll rent the movie so we can watch it at home."
I smiled and got up. I lead Raven out and turned to her, "Why did you want Regu to come out here with you alone?"
"Well, I figured all of you were into the movie. I was sure he wouldn't mind."
"No, he was enjoying the movie. Next time, can you ask one of my brothers? Asper wouldn't mind, he likes watching movies at home instead of here anyway." She nodded and we leaned against the way and waited for the movie to end. About 10 minutes later, the rest of the crew came out and we headed home.
To my dislike, Raven sat at my spot again, and started talking to Regu. He was more interested in his food at first, but was having a good conversation with her. I knew it. Something wasn't right. But I couldn't prove it. I sighed at all the thoughts running through my head and left to go sit on my balcony.
"Watch it. You could fall." I heard a voice say.
"Raven, hey. I won't fall. I never have."
"But you never know. You could fall when you least expect it."
"What's that supposed to mean?"
"Oh, nothing. But I would watch your balance If I were you"
I turned myself around to face her, but she had already walked back into the room and was in bed. 'Was that a threat? And her voice. It was so cold.' My thoughts continued like this for a while. Well, until I realized it was getting late and I needed to go to sleep. I walked back inside and got under the covers. Sleep, I'll worry about this tomorrow.

è Next morningç
I woke up to a loud scream. Turning to Raven, I saw that she was the one that did so. Everyone rushed into the room and looked around. I looked surmised, and Raven looked terrified.
"What happened?" I asked.
Raven turned her terrified gaze to me. "You would know! How could you!?" I looked at her confused.
"What did she do?" Cado asked. Raven held up a picture and a letter.
The picture was of the man that I had saw trying to kill her and was the same one from in the forest. Asper quickly read over the note and looked shocked and upset to me.
"Crecy! Why did you do something like this! You were the one who saved her, now your trying to traumatize her? Was this supposed to be some kind of joke? Well no one's laughing!" He growled.
I looked at him shocked; he has never spoken to me like that before. "I can honestly say I have no idea what you're talking about." I looked at them, Chirusa and Maia had read the note at the same time, then gave it to Regu and Cado to read.
"That was cruel, Crecy!" Maia snapped at me, then tried to go comfort Raven. Chirusa went with Maia, and Cado watched me disapprovingly.
"Tell what you're talking about!" I yelled as I got up and snatched the letter from Cado.
The note:
Raven,
You truly are pathetic, running away from you boyfriend like that.
You should have giving him what he wanted, but no.
No, you went and refused him, like the unreliably freak you are,
I should have let you die,
Or given him back to you, bound and chained,
You need to be taught a lesson,
And I just might know someone for the job,
Watch yourself, because next time you are alone,
He'll be there, and I'll laugh when he takes you back.
I'm surprised he'll even want you.
Enjoy what free time you have,
Crecy
End of note.
I visibly paled as I read it. I felt sick to my stomach as I looked back at them. How could they think I did this? My name at the bottom was written in blood. Oh Kami, I was going to be sick. I rushed out of the room, not hearing the one person following me. I ran out of the house and took off into the sky, my tears blurring my vision. 'How did this happen? Why would they do this to me? Why wouldn't they believe me? I didn't want anyone hurt. I was trying to help her, not hurt her.' My thoughts were interrupted as my ki began to fail me. My emotions blinding me. My ki dropped and I looked up, to see something in my way, and I couldn't stop. Everything went black, as I collided wit hit.
