Chapter 5

"What is it?" Beastboy was concerned. Raven stood up.

"My body is half demon and half human. Do you see this diamond on my face? It's because of that I'm so miserable. I know... I know a spell to take it off." Beastboy looked ecstatic.

"So why don't you use it?"

Raven looked sadly at Beastboy. "Its not that simple. If I get rid of it, I'm also getting rid of my powers... and I need a soul which to put my demonic powers into. I need to find someone who is responsible and won't use it to harm anyone, including themselves. I can't find anyone willing to take my powers. No one wants them, and neither do I." Beastboy stopped smiling. He didn't know anyone who would want her powers either. He didn't want to take them because he knew that he would have to act like Raven did all day (Raven scowled when he thought this. She can read his emotions). He thought for a while and said,
"Well, can't you just donate them to a worm or something that can't do any harm? Or just put it in a bottle?" Raven's eyes dropped. "No. I can't give it to a creature that isn't human. They have to be at least part human. But the bottle..." she looked up. "I... I think there is a spell for that! But I don't know it. It would take months of learning and reading. We have things to take care of. I can't spend all my time pouring over books. I wish I could, but I can't."

Beastboy held her hand. "Raven, all you need is a little help."
