Hey peeps, sorry it's taken so long to update, the Internet's been messing
around and I've had a massive writers block :) Raven and Falcon are inside
the warehouse...Shall not ruin next chapter...
STORY:
"Ebony!" Raven shouted through the dense smoke.
Falcon was right behind Raven. He disappeared into a smoke cloud. Raven landed on the floor and jumped over an oil patch. Falcon shouted at her. She followed his voice and found him floating next to a window.
"She's not in here, it's a trap." He said.
"What? Are you sure?"
"Positive. Come on let's go."
Raven lifted the glass out of the way and the two siblings flew out of the warehouse. They landed next to Magpie and Raven collapsed, sobbing into Falcons arms. Beast Boy looked at her and turned into an eagle. Flying high above the warehouse he saw the black car heading towards the edge of town.
Without a sound he followed it, his beady eyes showing him their new hideout. Much to his surprise he saw Slade get out of the car before it entered the building. He wasn't carrying anything so BB knew Ebony wasn't with him. Circling over the building, Heidi came out of the garage with a bundle in her arms. She ran into the building opposite and BB followed.
"What if they find us?" She asked Slade.
"They wont."
BB turned into a mouse and squeezed through a hole in a cracked windowpane. Peering over the edge of the balcony he saw Slade and Heidi sitting in a couple of armchairs. They were talking about plans to discard of Ebony.
"-It we're just going to get rid of her, why don't we just give her back to Raven and Beast Boy?"
"Are you going soft girl? That'd be just what they want. No, we'd best get her out of the way for good."
"How are we going to do that?"
"Tonight. We'll drown her."
"You can't do that! She's a baby!"
Slade leant close to Heidi and slapped her around the face. She clutched her cheek and managed to hold back the tears. She took Ebony in her arms and ran towards a door. Slade's minions slid into place in front of the doors and BB looked closely at the scene. Changing into a giant Phoenix he swooped over the balcony and picked Heidi up by the shoulders. She held on tight to Ebony and closed her eyes.
"Thank you." She said to Beast Boy.
He didn't answer. They flew over the city and back to the warehouse. BB let go of Heidi and changed back to human form. Taking Ebony from her he walked around the corner and looked at Raven.
"She's okay." He whispered.
"Beast Boy! Ebony!" Raven cried.
She ran over to BB and hugged him. Ebony giggled and hugged her mother. Heidi tried to leave without their noticing Falcon appeared in front of her and directed her towards the family.
"We have a visitor." He said.
"You?" Raven spat.
She grabbed Heidi's top and dragged her towards herself. Purple energy collected around her fist and she threw a punch at Heidi. BB grabbed her arm at the last second and the energy disappeared.
"She saved Ebony." He whispered.
"She did what?"
"Slade was going to drown Ebony. She wouldn't let him."
"You saved my daughter?" Raven asked Heidi.
Raven's grip loosened and she looked at Heidi.
"Why?"
"I couldn't just let her die."
"You work for Slade, you shouldn't care."
"But I did."
"Noticed that...I guess I owe you an apology."
"No you don't, it's my own stupid fault. Just forget it okay."
With that Heidi walked off leaving the family standing on the docks rejoicing at Ebony's safe return.
