Chapter 8 – The beginings of Friendship.

Dallas stood up, he shook his head slowly. His memories had given him a path, he knew now that he would be working and living with Raven, he could not allow himself to have such animosity between them, and partly because of his mothers influence, he wished to end the pain seeing his kind slaughtered had caused her. He walked from his door out into the hallway, making his way the short distance between their two rooms. He knocked softly on the door. He waited a few moments and heard a slow shuffling, Raven opened the door, her face hidden below a hood, he could tell however that her eyes were wet with tears.
"May I come in?" He asked softly, Raven looked up at him, curious. No one ever bothered to come into her room, not sense Beast boy and Cyborg were sucked into her mirror.
"Uh..sure" she says reserved and quietly, she opened the door for him and he walked inside, she expected some sort of comment on the décor of her room, but he gave none.
"I don't want you too think I am habering feelings of anger toward you, I know you think I am a demon...but I am not..." Raven raised her eyes toward him.
"Liar! I saw your wings.!" She shouted., a bulb exploding above her head.
"I am not a pure demon Raven...my soft nature comes from my mother..an angel...I didn't learn this, until only a few months ago myself, but it does not shock me, I am much too kind to be a pure blooded demon, much to reluctant to kill, but I am half demon..I do get filled with rage..and I have killed...I am responsible for the Trump Town Massacre..." Ravens eyes widened, 100 mercenries, rebels, and all around bad people were slaughtered at that town, such a great loss of life caused by only one man.
"Oh..my..." Was all that raven could manage to bring out, should she tell the others? Dallas had not just beaten those men, but he murdered them, every last one of them.
"I will understand, if you fear me, but I do not want you too, I do not wish their to be animosity between us, so I've come only to say this, You are Forgiven." Ravens eyes widened, he had granted her forgivness, but did she really need it? Probably not, her rational mind knew that, but her heart and soul told her yes, and the last surviving member of those who could forgive her, had. In an uncharastic move Raven broke into tears and wrapped her arms around dallas, sobbing into his chest, Dallas was used too this actually, several people often relied on him for emotional support. He simply patted her on the back and smiled.
"Its okay now, your sins are lifted...you are free from worry.." As Dallas spoke, Raven felt a strange sensation in her, as if for once in her life she belived him, it was odd too her, Dallas's very presence, made her feel safe.
"So this is what its like...to have a best friend..." she thought to herself, and simply continued to hug him, as she let her pain out.
