Ch.7: A Vision
The evening sunset glazed over Jump City like no other. Raven sat there on top of Titans Tower looking at it. She smiled to herself; soon she will be able to do this with Beast Boy. Cyborg had told her that he should be fine by morning, but she couldn't help but feel nervous, how was he going to react to her, it was her fault he almost died, she should have saved him, but she was worried about something else. All evening long her head has been aching like there was no tomorrow. It wasn't Beast Boy it was something else, she had felt this force on her before but that time was long forgotten in Jump City. Raven sat there and calmed herself. She needed to meditate so badly so she sat down and chanted her 3 most popular words. Her slim body began to float above the cement roof, she felt calm and peaceful. Her mind was at ease for some time but during the meditation something happened. She felt the ground shake, her mind began to bend and break, and her head felt like it was cracked in two. Her eyes opened with a deep black aura. She was having a vision she never thought she would see again. In front of her stood Kruger, his body had become a gruesome red and his ears looked like Beast Boy's now. His eyes were pure black with red pupils. Behind him stood 4 shadows, she couldn't see there faces but the outline of there figures made her shiver.
"It's almost over sweet little Raven, I don't need your daddy any more to break free. I can finally kill you like I should have back then. This time you won't have your little boy friend's powers to save you now, he can't contact his inner strength anymore and now with my master by my side me and my generals of Chaos will destroy you all and the world with glow a crimson shine from the blood that will be shed. The skies will turn black as night, the moon and sun will forge as one. All living life will suffer under my masters iron fists. And I will be right there, watching it all. So have some time with BB and just wait till the sign of scathe is broken, and then we can meet again." Kruger said in a darker more evil voice than normal.
As Kruger spoke behind him raised a creature she had never seen before. He was larger than Trigon ever could be, his body was completely shadowed but his eyes were multi colored. His left eye was a pure black with a white lining around it while the other eye was pure red with a black lining around it. The creature had two devil horns on his forehead and large angel wings on his back, in the middle of his forehead was a moon shaped scar that glowed over the shadow. His feet were that of demons, long talons replaced his toenails. In his right hand was a large blade that seemed to have an eerie blood covered shine. His left hand held an axe, on both weapons were some sort of symbol it looked Arabic but the one on the blade stood for blood and the one on the axe stood for destruction. The demon had a long whipping tail that seemed to have a fire lining down the middle of it. Whoever this demon was, it scared Raven worse than anything has ever had.
"See you soon sweet little Raven, see you soon."
With that the image was gone and Raven fell to the floor, she was dripping with sweat and her head was pounding from the images still fresh in her mind. She felt weak, she felt like she couldn't get up. But finally she found the strength to get up and drunkenly walk back to her room. She fell into the bed and dozed off. She just wanted to get the night over with. She slept till about 4 in the morning. She was awoken by an evil laugh it sent shivers down her spine. She slowly got up and walked towards the sound of the laughing. It was coming from outside the tower. So she walked out onto the shores and stared at the huger T in front of her on its walls was the sign of scathe. Its fired burned along the walls, it seemed to be like any other sign placed up but this fire began to change colors. It turned a horrible black and then shattered to pieces. Raven knew exactly what it stood for.
"He's back, the spawn of hell itself has come back, I need to get Robin." She whispered to herself as she continued to stare at the falling pieces of the sign.
Raven ran into the tower and straight for Robin's room. She slammed hard on the door and herd footsteps coming from behind the door. Starfire appeared in the doorway.
"Friend Raven what troubles you it is 4 a.m. in the morning." Starfire said with a yawn in between her words.
"Star I need to speak with Robin now." Raven said in a scared voice.
Starfire raised an eyebrow and nodded.
"Yes friend Raven I will go get him."
Starfire walked away from the door and Robin soon appeared in front of it. He looked just as tired as Starfire and his mask was bent slightly on the side.
"You o.k. Raven I mean its 4 in the morning you should be asleep."
"Robin it's something I have to tell you in private please come to the living room."
Robin nodded and exited his and Star's room and followed Raven into the main room. She sat down in a chair she was shivering from fright and coldness. Robin brought in with him a cup of coffee and a cup of tea to calm Raven down. She looked like she had seen a ghost.
"What did you want to tell me? We have to get some sleep for tomorrow."
"Robin something has happened, Kruger is back I know he is, I had this vision about him coming back and some demon he calls his master and then he said that he would strike when the scathe sign breaks and I had just walked out side because I heard laughing and on the tower was the sign of scathed and it broke to pieces. I…I…I am just worried that Kruger might be back, we need to investigate those murders tomorrow."
Robin stood there, his eyes were glued to Raven and then he dropped his cup, the pieces shattered on the ground. He kept staring at Raven, he couldn't believe what he just heard.
"Are you sure." he said in a cold voice.
Raven sipped her tea and nodded. Robin picked up the shattered pieces of the cup and walked back to his room he didn't even say goodnight.
"We will talk about this tomorrow." He said in a dark voice.
Raven heard his door close and she started to cry, she knew Robin didn't believe her, why should he, she sounded insane. Her tears dropped from her cheeks into the thin light colored tea in her hands. She wished someone would believe her, but she didn't wish for someone to understand her. How could they, Kruger was dead everyone knew it. But in the back of her mind she knew that somewhere, somehow the massacre man was alive, and planning his next attack. How right she would be.
