I have received a review concerning the fact that Zaith got hurt by Vlade. It is true that Zaith is a very string man, and the fact that he survived a train is incredible. Yet even he has his limits, so when he really gets hurt, he gets more then just a few cuts and bruises.

As for Vlade, yes we should all damn him to hell for the injuries Zaith was pur through. But don't worry, I as the writer of this story shall have my revenge. So ready, relaz, and hate Vlade as much as possible.

Oh, and please don't sue Vlade... Though I would love to see the look on his face, there isn't much money in sueing a fictional character out of his fictional money. Besides, he steals and kills people for a living. Actually, he should bea character in Grand Theft Auto.

Disclaimer: I don't own Teen Titans, but I do watch the show.

Chapter 2: 'Crow' and 'Sacrilege'

Three days later, Zaith was still in the hospital, and the others were in their rooms, resting at the moment. It was 9 pm, and the team was sleeping, save for Raven who was on the roof, meditating.

The wind was blowing, and the sky was crying, rain pouring down from the heavens. Raven was floating in the air, using her powers to keep her from being blown away. Weather casters said that a major storm was coming from the Atlantic, and that all ships leaving the harbor are to be docked until further notice.

The temperature began to drop some more, and the sudden change caused hail to come down. Raven stayed where she was, and cuts began to form across her skin. She did not let out a single cry of pain, but a tear managed to squeeze its way out of her eyelids.

Just then, a shadowy figure stood in front of Raven, sword exposed and raised, as if about to execute her. The sword lowered, and then another figure came and tackled the man trying to kill Raven.

She opened her eyes just in time, and saw that Vlade was the one with the sword and the man tackling him was none other then Zaith. Unfortunately, Vlade let go of his sword and it began to swing towards Raven. She tried to use her powers to stop the blade before she was impaled, yet she could not speak fast enough to say her chant.

"NNOOOO!!!" Zaith cried right when the sword was about a centimeter from where Ravens heart was.

"AAHHH!!!" Raven cried as she shot upright, breathing heavily.

"Don't worry Raven, it's alright." Said a calm and soothing voice.

Raven looked at the person next to her and found Beast Boy only a foot away.

"Raven, it was just a nightmare. Everything is fine." He said, trying to calm her down.

Without thinking, she leaned forward and hugged him, placing her head into his should. Slightly shocked, Beast Boy slowly wrapped his arms around her, comforting her as best as he could.

Raven cried into her friends shoulder for about an hour, and Beast Boy simply held her there, allowing her to let out her tears. He could guess why she was crying, after all, he does have a life besides T.V.

After about an hour, Raven eventually stopped crying, and the two began to chat quietly amongst themselves.

"…Thanks." Raven said. "But what are you doing here?"

"Uh, yeah… I was just getting a drink of water earlier when I heard you talking in your sleep." Beast Boy said. He began to look down at the floor, knowing that Raven would probably toss him out of her room for entering without permission. "I think I'll leave, now that your better and all."

Beast Boy then stood up and began to walk towards the door.

"Wait." Raven said. Beast Boy turned around then went back to Raven's side.

"What is it, Raven?"

"I'd rather not be alone."

"Alright then. So what do you want to do, watch a movie, talk… hear a joke?"

"I think talking would be better then any of your jokes." Raven said in her usual tone.

"Very funny." Beast Boy said, feeling somewhat annoyed at the comment. "Well, since you decided to choose talk instead of a movie, I have a question. What was it you were dreaming of?"

Raven decided to tell him about her nightmare. She didn't really want to talk about it, but she knew that if she didn't talk about it, she would eventually break down again. After telling him her twisted dream, she began to tear up again but managed to keep the majority of them behind her eyes.

"Wow Raven, I don't think I've ever had a depressing dream like that before."

Raven remained quiet at what he said, feeling depressed at the thought of her dream.

"So, this Zaith guy… you care for him?"

"Yeah. I guess you could we have something between us."

"Wait, you mean he… and you… are together?"

Raven simply blushed at the comment, remembering the morning before. She gave herself a little smile, which Beast Boy saw.

"What's that smile about?"

"Don't worry about that."

Both Raven and Beast Boy looked over to the window, finding a dark figure standing there holding onto the window he had opened from the outside.

"Miss me, Raven?"

"Zaith?!"

The figure stepped into the room, and then closed the window behind him. The little amount of light in the room was enough to illuminate the figures face. Sure enough, he was Zaith, showing a big grin on his face.

"Wait, but aren't you in the hospital?"

"I heal a lot faster then most people do, so I didn't need to stay for long."

"But dude, you were-"

"I know Beast Boy. But I'm one of those die hard guys. Now will you excuse me and Raven for a bit. We need to talk."

"Uhh… sure." He said. He stood up, then went over to the door and left the room.

Zaith walked over to Raven, and then placed his hand on her cheek.

"I'm sorry if I worried you." He said soothingly. "But I promise you, I will do everything in my power to never let anything like that happen again."

He then gave her a gentle kiss. Raven accepted him and kissed him back. They soon broke the kiss. Suddenly, a small yawn slipped through Raven's lips, showing that she was fairly tired.

"Let me guess, not enough sleep?"

"I had a nightmare."

"Sorry about that."

"It's alright."

"Well, would you like for me tot stay with you for the night while you sleep?"

"I would like that." Raven said as she gave him a weak smile.

She lied down onto the bed, and then carefully tucked herself into the blankets. Zaith took off his sword, followed by his trench coat and his black t-shirt, revealing a black tank top and muscular body. He then joined Raven in the bed, who received him by turning around and snuggling with him. The two fell asleep, and soon the night had gone by, and the sun began to rise.

The alarm went off yet again for the second time in two days, and every one rushed to the lobby. Robin was already there waiting for everyone to arrive in the room. Star Fire and Cyborg were the first to arrive, followed by Beast Boy, then Raven and a dark clothed man. Cyborg, Star Fire, and Robin both had a jaw drop moment, as they recognized Zaith for who he was.

"How…" Robin began.

"I'm a fast healer. Now let's get to work. Who is it this time?"

"Uh… right. Let's see… It's Vlade, and he's trying to break into a bank vault in the shopping district."

"He's mine." Zaith said angrily, as he began to run out of the lobby. The others followed him, though they soon lost him amongst the crowds that lived in the city.

Zaith found the bank relatively easily; after all, it was the only place in the shopping district that fire was all around and the entrance flamed constantly. Vlade was outside of the bank, waiting for Zaith.

"So you've come." Vlade said.

"It's time to finish this, Vlade!" Zaith said as he drew his sword then jammed it into the pavement. Then he took off his trench coat and his shirt revealing the tank top. To some, it would be called partial nudity; to him it was less weight and another advantage.

Vlade soon did the same and when the two were ready for the on coming battle they both drew their sword. Vlade still had the same katana from before, which shown a strange aura around it, as if it were possessed by some evil spirit bent on killing. The red glow began to emanate from the hilt of the sword, though it could have covered over Vlade, considering his sadistic mind set.

Zaith had a different blade though. His was now also a katana, but the hilt gave a blue aura, showing the goodness of his heart. His intentions were not pure, however, and often the aura would change colors to a golden color.

"I see you have a new sword. You made it your self?" Vlade said.

"As did you."

"Okay then, I believe 'Sacrilege; is ready to fight." Vlade said, referring to the name he gave to his sword.

"You may not care, but 'Crow' here would like to have a bout with 'Sacrilege'."

With that, the two charge at each other and began their sword fight. It was an intense battle, and every time their swords clashed, sparks flew into the air. This was something to be worried about because the area was actually covered in gasoline. Vlade was hoping to set Zaith on fire while they were fighting so that he could enjoy the sight of burning him to death.

After what seemed like ten minuets of sword clashes, Zaith somehow gained the upper hand, landing three consecutive round house kicks, followed by a gut punch using the hilt of 'Crow'. Vlade was sent flying into the burning bank, and Zaith soon followed, hoping to finish his brother inside.

Zaith jumped through the flames that covered the entrance, and readied his sword, but found it hard to see, even though the fire behind him should have illuminated the room.

Suddenly, Vlade came down from the ceiling and drop kicked Zaith, sending him through a pane of window that remained on one of the doors. He fell onto the pavement, but quickly got up.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Vlade began to walk through the fire at the entrance, laughing hysterically.

"Sorry, Zaith, but we're going to have to cut our fun short." Vlade said with a large smile on his face. "Another time."

Suddenly, an explosion came from behind Vlade, engulfing him in fire. Zaith immediately turned around knowing that glass could have been sent towards him. As he turned and ran, he saw his clothes, so he picked them up, protecting them from damage.

The flame from the explosion receded shortly after, and the Titans then finally made it to the scene.

"What happened here?" Cyborg asked seeing the fire.

"Vlade!" Zaith said furiously, knowing that he had gotten away in the explosion.

"Where is he?" Robin asked.

"He got away." Zaith said.

"Why would your brother do such terrible things?" Star Fire asked innocently.

"He takes pleasure in seeing the pain in people. It's what he does for fun." Zaith said angrily.

"Well, there is nothing we can do about this now. Looks like we'll just have to let the fire department handle the fire." Robin said.

The team then began to make their way to the tower, where they would spend another night in security. Once there, they all made their way to their rooms, and Raven and Zaith both went to Zaith's room, where he could relax and feel most comfortable for the night. The change of scenery helped him sleep as well, as the two fell asleep in each other's arms on the raised platform after only minuets of being on it.

Well, hope those of you who are reading this are fairly annoyed at me. I know I'm annoyed at myself for changing the happy setting for anger and violence. Don't worry though, there shall be a moment of peace... but only a moment. Then tragedy shall come... and Zaith will be very PISSED!
