Okay this chapter is very long, but lots of stuffies happen in it. Just read it and be happy I acutally wrote a long chapter without having a metal breakdown.
CHAPTER 5
The Demon Inside
Rays of sunlight shone though the crack of the dirty windows. Aquilus yawned and stretched, "Time to get up," she said moodily to herself. Pushing the window she had used to get into this foul place she climbed out. She squinted against the bright sunlight, "Okay, how do I get noticed around this waste land?" she mumbled to herself looking around. The warehouse was conveniently located way out of Gotham City, were no one would happen to see her and report her the Teen Titans, but more importantly: Raven. She thought sarcastically. All there was farm land and an old unused highway around here. Something reflected into Aquilus's eye, squinted and walked closer to the reflecting sign, it read 'Farmer's Market Two (2) miles ahead' "Prefect." She said smiling.
"I thank you Cyborg, but really I am undamaged and joyful to be back home," Starfire say as she stepped through the large doors of the T-tower. She spun around with her arms out and her hair flying everywhere "I am so happy to be back. Although nurses are nice, your hospital smells of old gortons left out in the sun to long, and the food tasted like it too,"
Bobby was her friend, until something cracked. Emily wasn't sure what, but something cracked inside Bobby for him to kill his girlfriend...
Raven looked up from her book with an annoyed expression on her face, "Yes Starfire?" she said looking into the big green eyes of her fellow companion, "I was going to merely ask why-" Loud wailing surged through the tower, while red light flooded the halls. Beast Boy tilted his head and scratched it while looking at the computer "What kind of freak attacks a farmers' market?" he asked, "I dunno, but we're about to find out," said Robin who was also standing at the computer with Beast Boy. A farmers' market? What? Raven thought staring blankly at space, "Aquilus." She hissed through clenched teeth, "You coming or not," asked Robin, he was standing in front of Raven. "Huh-wha? Oh yeah I'm coming," replied Raven standing up. Robin and Raven ran outside where Star, Beast Boy and Cyborg were already inside Cyborg's built car. "C'mon dudes hurry up, it takes like twenty minutes to get out of town!" yelled B.B. out a window of the car to Raven and Robin. Robin and Raven slide into the back seat with Star.

Aquilus was sitting on a tree when she saw the T-car pull up to the ruined farmers' market. Hiding behind a big branch she was able to see everything. That annoyance Robin was questioning people, Aquilus relaxed, they didn't know were she had gone, "Three, two, one" she mumbled to herself then leapt out of the branch, circling over top of the titans shooting black energy jets at them.
"Titans take cover," Robin yelled dodging a jet. "AZARATH METRION ZINTHOS!" Yelled Raven as she made a huge shield covering the titans. The bastes stopped and Raven removed the shield "Where'd she-" began Beast Boy. Raven and Star leapt up into the air and looked around "I'll cover the sky, you Beast Boy, Robin and Cyborg look in the forest around here," said Raven to Star, she nodded and descended.
"Robin and I will search this side of the forest, while Cyborg and Beast Boy will search that side," said Starfire as she landed. "TEEN TITANS GO!" yelled the boys running into the forest.
Raven scanned the tops of the trees, she saw no movement. This is hopeless. When Aquilus doesn't want to be found you can't find her, she thought growing annoyed, the wind was a lot colder up in the air and the frightened birds screeches weren't a help either. She flew into the forest, scanning the area. Suddenly she saw something move, it was Aquilus. Aquilus shot up out of the trees and Raven followed. She was smiling wickedly "So glad you could make it Raven," Aquilus said smirking. Raven rolled her eyes, "Whatever," Don't lose your cool, don't lose your cool, don't lose your cool! "Aw pumpkin you look depressed, anything wrong?" Aquilus said pouting flakily. Don't lose your cool, don't lose your cool, don't lose your cool! "Cat got your tongue?" Don't lose your cool, don't lose your cool, don't lose your cool! Aww screw it! Raven charged at Aquilus and grabbed her neck squeezing it tighter and tighter. Aquilus never lost her smirk "What you trying...to do," she managed to gasp the last words as Raven squeezed harder "trying to kill...me like... you almost did with Starfire!" Aquilus kneed Raven hard in the stomach, Raven groaned and let go of Aquilus. She zoomed over the trees and Raven followed.
Starfire heard a crack "Hello? Is someone there?" she asked meekly, "Star? It just me, Robin," Robin said walking into the clearing. "This place is creepy," said Starfire looking around, "I know, but we have to catch Aquilus. C'mon," Robin said starting off. He stepped over a large tree root, "Watch that-" Robin said turning around, but Starfire tripped. Robin caught her just in time, "Uh, thanks," she said, they were still holding on to each other. "No... problem," Robin said, leaning closer to Star...
Aquilus flew lower into the trees, Raven dodged them trying to keep up. She's heading to that clearing, I'll just fly up and over and meet her there by surprise. Raven flew up over the trees, she looked down following Aquilus's movements. Where did she go? Raven lost sight of Aquilus and decided to land. She looked down, Two sets of foot prints? Might as well follow them, they're the only lead I've got. Raven followed them, This is hopeless and stupid, they're obviously not Aquilus's anyways. Wait I see something, Raven thought, she soundlessly crept over, wait that's not... Raven gasped. Robin and Starfire pulled out of there kiss, both smiling. Raven narrowed her eyes, That bitch! I can't believe... and Robin. Hatred and pain flowed through Raven body.
"Robin?" asked Starfire quietly. There was a large crashing noise and Raven stormed out, but not the sadistic about 5'5 feet tall Raven, but the huge demonic Raven. The sets of red eyes searched hungrily for revenge, she sent a shockwave at Starfire. Star hit a tree but there was no serious damage done. "Raven what is wrong with you?" she asked while Raven sent a bastes of black energy jets at her. Starfire basted the jets with her own starbolts.
"Yo what's going on?" yelled Cyborg as he and B.B. came crashing out of the bushes. "Rae is that you?" asked B.B., Raven turned around and glared at Beast Boy. She levitated Cyborg and Beast Boy into the air "Stay out of my way," she said in a freaky double voice. "Look Raven I don't know what's gotten into you but we don't want to fight you." Said Robin. Raven laughed, it sounded more harsh and unforgiving than amused.
"Now Raven, that isn't nice," called a voice from beside a tree, Aquilus leaned on the side and sighed "Raven, Raven, Raven," she said in a playful voice, she made a 'tis-tisk' noise. "You!" yelled Robin, "you've been using us!" Aquilus pretending to look surprised and gasped flakily, dropping back to her usual mono-tone bored voice "Look, I've only come here for one thing, so be a good little boy and no one gets hurt,"
"Yeah right, what about last time?"
"Last time? Oh I get it, Raven hasn't told you yet, she was the one that tried to kill your grammar queen over there. Isn't that nice?" she asked smirking. She pulled out a glass globe, was divided into 2 with a little brass hinge on one of the sides. She opened it, suddenly a big vortex began sucking everything into it. Robin dived to the side and covered his head, lying on the ground. "NO!" yelled the demonic Raven. Something take looked like red mist came flying out of Raven. Raven transferred into the 5'5 Raven. She collapsed; her newly white cape covered her fragile looking body.
"Chow!" yelled Aquilus as she disappeared with the globe, which had a swirling red mist inside it.
Will have chapter 6 up soon
