Chapter Nine: Realization
Two whole weeks have passed sense Dallas and Raven had talked, they indeed had become closer too each other, often times they would be up late at night. Simply talking too one another, about the pain that filled both of their lives. Dallas learned that soon after seeing his kinds slaughtered, Raven left her father for earth, and that she too came upon the teen titans only by chance.
The day was slowly fading away as Raven and Dallas sat on the top of the titans tower, both lost in deep meditation, they hadn't heard robin call for them on their communicators the first time. The second time however, Robin used the shock feature to snap them out of it. Dallas flipped open his communicator.
"What is it Robin?" Robin was breathing heavily and his face looked pretty busted up.
"We've got a major problem down here and we need you're help! Hurry!" Dallas nodded as did Raven and they both took too the sky, following the tracking beacon of Robins communicator they soon found themselves in the middle of a disaster area, rubble lay strewn around them, Dallas could smell human blood, and death abound. He looked over at the titans, Robin and Cyborg were hurt pretty Badly. Bleeding from some what appeared to be serious Injury. Dallas looked over and saw beast boy struggling too his feet, Star fire was in the air still, furiously throwing her green energy blasts at a being Dallas could not see through the smoke.
"You hurt my friends! "she screamed and tossed down blast after blast, finally however she stopped, breathing heavily she looked at the damage she had created.
"Is he defeated?" she said out loud, when suddenly their was a red energy blast that slammed into star fire and sent her crashing too the ground, Dallas had heard several of her bones break. He snarled and his wings quickly ripped from his back, He and raven floated down too the ground. When the smoke cleared a man stood their, his eyes black as night, his hair was as red as blood, he wore an off grey dirty trenchcoat, no shirt and black pants with no shoes.
"Who are you?! Tell me now!" Snarled Dallas. The man smiled and starred at Dallas.
"I am Yurikoti Sanki, The worlds foremost assassin, and I'm afraid you Teen Titans, are on my hit list "Dallas snarled and his wings twitched gently. He charged the man as fast as he could, but Yurikoti was too fast, he simply stepped aside and drove his knee Into dallas's stomach sending the large demon toppling to the ground, growling at the sound of his own ribs breaking. He quickly retaliated though as he went to sweep out Yuri's feet, Yuri leaped but only to be side swipped buy a large chunk of rock sending him crashing into debris. Dallas looked over and saw Raven, who after helping him had gone over and tried to see what was wrong with the other titans and who could still fight. Beast boy it seems was the only one still capable of being of any use. Robin Cyborg and Starfire tried to argue about staying but Raven sent them off, telling them that they were useless as badly injured as they were and would only stand to get in the way.
There was a rumbling under the rocks and suddenly an explosion as they were sent soaring away, Yuri seemed very angry, beast boy, always impatient turned into an elephant and charged him, only to have a red energy blast send him hurling backwards and into the debris, knocking him out cold.
"Damn it!" Dallas thought to himself, he growled and formed a fire ball in his hands just as Raven picked up a rock, they threw them at the same time, Yuri leaped over the rock spun around and knocked the fire ball away, he ran toward Raven, his anger centered at her. "You Die first!" he screamed and drew a samuri blade, he drove it foreward before Raven could react, she closed her eyes and awaited the deadly blow, But there was only a light poke, She opened them and saw Dallas standing infront of her, Samuri sword buried through him, black blood slowly dripped down the sword. It suddenly tore from him, toppling him too the ground. Raven's mind filled with anger, as she starred at Yuri, she raised her hands up, no words came out this time, rocks broke apart and formed sharp objects, they flew in a blur at Yuri, who could only watch as his body was ripped to shreds by the rocks. Raven looked down at Dallas, black blood had pooled around him, she rolled him over, he was still barely breathing, she cradled his head in her arms.
"Don't you die on me..." She said softly starring down at him. Suddenly her mind realized, starring down at him, close to death, close to leaving her forever. That she did not want to be just friends with Dallas, she had fallen in love with him. Her in love, the very thought almost made her laugh, but he understood her, her could talk with her, and she with him. Tears slowly ran down her face and she clutched his fading body.
"Don't you die on me! Don't you dare die on me!" Her tears became sobs, as she prayed to any one, to anything to stop him from dying. As she did, the world around them slowly grew darker, the skys blacked and thunder crashed, as a lonesome rain began to pour down on her. Slowly from the ground, black rays of light filtered up, and into Dallas's body, Raven didn't notice this her eyes were clenched shut, suddenly there was a red lightning strike, hittind Dallas square in the chest, his eyes widend as he inhaled sharply. Raven looked down at him, his wound had closed, it was a miracle, what had happended she didn't understand, nor did she care, Dallas was alive, unconscious but alive, she sat their in the rain. Clutching his body close to her chest. She was in love, but now, how to tell him that, that was a worry for another day.
