Just so you know, the polls are still open and this chapter is not a fight, yet. So go ahead and sponsor or bash someone on your reviews while the current status is kept in my bio. This chapter, I felt like turning a little toward Raven because she is my favorite character, but believe me every character will have their turn. And I could not help bringing Raven's demon side into the picture. Just for keeps, and because of this I will be changing the story to Action/Adventure because it might go longer than I thought it would. Really, if I wanted it to be 30min. of short and sweetness, it would be boring. BTW, I do not know who Barbara Gordon is, but BatGirl/ Betty Kane/ Flame-Bird all have blonde hair unless she is in a beauty pageant. Speaking of hair…..

Chapter 2 A Turn for the Worst

"I say voodoo."

"I don't do voodoo."

"Well, you don't do fear either, look how far that got you…"

"What?"

"Oh never mind, C'mon we have to think up a plan."

After cleaning up all the toilet paper, even though the graffiti remained, Raven and Lilith Clay sat on the beds of their dorm room. Lilith, in her white undershirt and shorts, was pacing on the floor, while Raven, who sleeps in her regular costume minus cloak and belt, sat on the canopy bed fingering through some spell books that, conveniently, were placed in their room.

"C'mon Raven, just give me something I can work with…"

Raven looked up from her book. Why was this so difficult? Books have always given her a feeling of pleasure and have always relaxed her. Why was it so different here?

"You know I'm new at the forging evil-plot things."

Lilith continued pacing.

"That makes two of us, but there's a first time for everything."

Raven still scanned through the book. Of course, revenge was all Lilith's plan, and the use of their mystic advantage was also. Lilith was a bit scary, why was Raven even trusting her? It was not always like her to trust, and they have not even met for a whole day. Raven's thoughts were stopped when Lilith snapped her fingers and yelled.

"I got it!"

Raven leaned over ready for the red-headed girl's answer.

Lilith took a deep breath and collapsed.

"I forgot…."

Raven collapsed on the bed herself. This was soooo difficult.

Lilith sat on the bed next to Raven.

"Wanna go see what the other girls are doing?"

Raven glanced over at the clock.

"Sleeping?" Raven said matter-of-factly.

"Nothing else to do…" Lilith shrugged.

"Sleep?" Raven said.

"Oh come on! Do you really feel like sleeping right now!?!"

"Actually-" Raven started with a yawn.

Raven had no choice, as Lilith jumped out of the bed and with much precision scurried up their balcony. Raven, not feeling like wasting any of her energy, climbed along instead of levitating much to her dismay. They came across the first room where Starfire was sleeping upside-down happily in her bed, and Terra was KO'd on the pillow, her snoring setting off tiny tremors felt all around the building.

The next room came up. Jinx and Batgirl were still up, and Lilith and Raven could hear their conversation.

"Why do you use such cheap stuff?" said Jinx's voice peering toward her room mate Betty Kane aka Bat Girl who drying her hair with the blow dryer.

"This 'cheap stuff' is the most well-loved and highly expensive European products that you can get in California," Betty said with a smirk.

"I owe my title as most beautiful in all the contests to that little bottle right there," she said pointing.

"I'd hate to see what the other contestants looked like," Jinx narrowed her eyes.

"Are you saying that my products are inadequate?" Betty yelled.

Jinx knew better. If she was back at the HIVE academy, Brother Blood would have never let her make meaningless small talk like this. She may look like she was all about her studies, but when it came to hair-care conditioners and sprays, she knew she would win. And she was.

"No, just gaudy…" Jinx said tossing a little fun into the argument.

"If you want to talk 'gaudy,' let's discuss your hair!" Betty laughed.

Jinx walked over to her room mate, eyes closed for dramatic effect.

"I'd like to see how you keep your hair in this radiant tone of pink with two ebony stripes, piled up with no jell."

Betty looked at her wide eyed.

"No hair jell, huh…" she started then smiled.

"Girl, you have got to tell me what you use."
So they both exited into the parlor/bathroom.

From outside, you could hear the laughter of Raven and Lilith.

"Oh man, that was sweet!" Lilth said wiping a tear.

Raven could not even stop laughing without keeling over.

"Next room, our enemies," Lilith said pointing upward toward the tallest balcony.

Raven nodded quietly as she reached up to the next uneven piece of stone, but before she could catch her balance, the stone became loose and came apart from the building leaving Raven falling backward.

"Raven!" Lilith screamed as she quickly grabbed Raven's hand.

Once their hands touched, dark energy came careening from Raven's hand and jolted into Lilith's own skin. Lilith groaned from the shock and the pain as Raven's energy was somehow being absorbed into Lilith's hand.

Out of pain, she released Raven.

Raven fell, to weak to keep her eyes open and much too weak to levitate. Her energy gone, she fell until she was in the cold, comforting darkness of unconsciousness. She didn't even hear the scream, the lights and shouts. She did not hear the raspy voice of her own incantation. She just slipped into her own mind, as dark energy from an anonymous source clouded around her and shielded her from the crushing gravity.

………………………………………………………………………………………..

In the northernmost bedroom, Wondergirl and Aquagirl were still laughing, slapping hands, and celebrating from their win. Revenge was so sweet.

"You should have seen the look on their faces!" Wondergirl exclaimed.

"We didn't see their faces…." Aquagirl stated.

"I know! That's soooo sad! But I bet they would have been like this-!" Wondergirl said making a surprised/stupid face.

They both laughed a whole lot in high pitched, girly giggles until they heard a scream from outside.

Donna and Tula looked out the window to see a shocked, worn-out Lilith hanging on a few stones from the building.

"Clay! What are you doing here?" Aquagirl yelled.

"R-Raven," Lilith stammered still clutching her hand.

"Oh great! Is she up here, too?" Wondergirl yelled in anger.

"R-Raven! Raven! She fell down there! Get help!" Lilith finally yelled.

"Wha-What?" Aquagirl said.

"Hurry! Someone has to get down there she could be hurt!"

Wonder Girl jumped onto the balcony and commanded Aqua Girl to get help.

With that, she grabbed her golden-twined lasso and lowered the end down to Lilith who looked up.

"No, don't worry about me! Get Raven!"

"I can't just leave you hanging there," Wonder Girl said in a tone indicating that she is having a hard time even offering help to the girl.

"No need," Lilith answered and a second after that she disappeared.

Wonder Girl blinked for a few seconds then gathered up her lasso and flew down. She got down there fast enough to see Raven, looking quite different. Through the dark energy that saved her, it was visible that Raven had four red eyes and a darker expression. The look startled her, as the four-eyed Raven glanced at Wonder Girl, smiled menacingly with a fare-well gesture, and took off as a black bird-looking thingie into the ground. Wonder Girl stood there taking too much in for one night. A rustle and buzzing in the back of her caused her to turn to see Lilith, apparently have been standing in the shadows the whole time.

Too late, Aquagirl came running down the stares followed by Starfire, Jinx, Batgirl, and the GameMaster came to where Raven once stood.

"Oh, where is my friend!" Starfire wailed. "Is she damaged?"

"Where is that meddling mystic?" Jinx stated.

"She was just-!" Wonder Girl started to stay before doing a double take and glancing at Bat Girl. "What happened to your hair!?!"

Everyone looked at Bat Girl who magically dyed her hair neon green with two black stripes in a U-shape just like Jinx.

Jinx stepped forward very, very proud and notified the heroines that U's are all the rage.

But enough about that, in a clearing in the deep outskirts of the dimension that is the Game Master, Raven or as it seemed to be Raven soaked the moonlight and night having a giddy time of freedom before Raven slipped back into consciousness.

……………………………………………….

"Humph…" Raven moaned as she woke up in her mind that had an Azarath-theme desktop background.

"Are you all right?" said herself, or it looked like herself, but in a green robe.

Raven looked up at her courage. Not only was she there, but a two other of her emotions Happiness in her pink robe, and Timid in her gray robe. "Fine… yeah….. sure…. what happened?"

"You were climbing the dorm building," Bravery stated.

"And you were with Lilith," Happiness said with a smile.

"And you fell…." Timid moaned.

"Well, I feel all right…." said the normal Raven standing up and dusting herself off.

"That's because she saved you…." Timid said shivering for some reason.

"'She?'" Raven asked with a glance of wonder at her emotions.

"Yes…." came a voice from no where.

Raven turned in frustration while the three other emotions shivered, even Courage, and vanished.

"You!"

Out phased Anger, or the demonic part of her, who brandished a red coat and had four red eyes, and an evil, hospitable smile that makes Raven sick. "What, is that any way to speak with the one who saved your life?"

"What happened?" Raven said angrily. The last thing she wanted is to be in depth to her father's influence.

"You fell, that heroine girl, you took so quickly to your friend I might add, somehow sucked your dark energy leaving your unable to even levitate or be aware, I took over easily and saved you," said Anger proud.

She turned to Raven who was steaming and her smile became a disgusted frown. "What? No thank-you? I should take over you more often!" the dark Raven laughed, but still maintained thoughtful eyes despite how red and four-ish they were.

Yet, she was still part of her; even if she was a part Raven wish she did not have. Raven had some sympathy. But very little.

"Thanks…" she grumbled.

"Manners, daughter, manners," and with that the demonic Raven disappeared laughing and leaving Raven in control of her body in the shade of a small forest near the Master of Game's dome.
