Moga: Bleah. This chapter got deleted. Kinda. Only the disclaimer. I
don't own the Teen Titans, but I DO own this picture of a snail I made in
Word! Isn't it cute? Uh. yeah.
Ah! Super sorry for the way to long wait on this. I have to not let my
other story completely take over my writing agenda. Anyway, thanks, Manny!
I didn't notice that. If the problem persists, I'll see what a can do
about getting a beta reader. Constructive criticism is good! And everyone
should know who Kurt is, 'cuz he's awesome and furry.
Quote: Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgment that something else is more important than fear.
"I do not wish to hurt you. I'm. lost." Raven said quietly, not wanting to show weakness to a creature she knew nothing of.
"I's know!" came the indignant reply. "But I's sense dark! Dark is bad!" That confused Raven.
"But this place IS dark," she said.
"No it not! This is shy! I's am shy, if you want to know."
"Your shy? Well you sure seem to be."
"No! I's AM shy! That is who I be. . Who be you?"
"Your name is Shy?"
"No! It. it is not for you to know. I's is no good with this thing. I's was never told how to use it. And you have not told I's who you be."
"My name's. Raven."
"Fear Bird?"
"What?"
"Ravens are fear birds. They be very feared on same-side other- side."
"Same what?"
"Nos! You did not hear that! I's not say that! Here! Take this and go, speak not of me, or just call me. Tadoshu be my name. I's must bid you farewell, I's hope you use this for pro."
With a flash of gray light, the creature was gone. All that was left was a key, tied onto a string to make a necklace. Carved into the thick handle were the words "Het Aye Eor Lvery Klo". Raven briefly wondered what it meant. There was no time now, the chamber began to shake, dirt crumbling off the ceiling. The tunnel was caving in.
Raven grabbed hold of the key and fled back up the tunnel. Left, center, left, right. Which passages had she come from again? No, she definitely hadn't come from this way. Behind her, a section of the tunnel collapsed. No going back THAT way. She ran up the tunnel, this one was twisted, but it didn't branch off like the others.
She ran into a room lit by four torches. At the back of the room, was a large golden rock, scooped out to make a dip in the top like a bowl. The bottom looked carved, with a depression running through the rock, many small objects littering the bottom. Above the depression, but below the bowl, was an engraving in the rock. Some small symbol Raven didn't recognize. The symbol was a circle, with a square in the center. The square had an arch on top of it, and in the center of the square, was a hole. In the hole was. something. Raven, compelled by curiosity, leaned closer. Wait. there was something actually IN the hole. Reaching one hand forward hesitantly, Raven stopped as the device glowed with a black light. It zoomed out of the hole and into her hand, losing its black aurora. She almost dropped it in shock. In fact, she did, as the doorway to the room caved in. She was trapped, with no other passages to go down. 'No! Use the Kehon! The round thing! Put it to the wall and press down on its center, than insert the key! Do it! You can't die yet!' Not knowing, and at the moment not caring, where the voice was coming from, Raven shoved the round device against one dirt wall and pressed down on the center. The center of the device lit up to a brilliant red color before falling off the wall. Raven caught it, staring in shock at what it had done. A small, round hole had been created in the wall. As the ceiling began to crumble, Raven shoved the key into the hole and turned it, in a flash of black and white light, she heard a deafening crash and everything went black.
Moga: And another cliffhanger! Don't you all just hate me now?
Quote Reference: When Raven stays to find out answers (or at least trys to) rather than run from the unknown.
