Raven and Robin
By: Sara Coyote Pope "Hecate"
Chapter 2 – The Raven's Shadow

Author's Note- Gomen, I came out with chapter 2 soon after chapter 1, so I did not get any comments yet. I just thought that this story would be more appealing once the mystery OC was introduced. I will add another page of thank yous to anyone who does comment. Gomen again, and enjoy.

Robin looked up at the clock in the law office, and let out a slight sigh as she looked back down at the note Nagira gave her before he left earlier that afternoon.
"Robin, Heard you had a rough night last night, so I'm letting you sleep in. When you wake up, I'll be out scrounging information on this hunter Amon told me about. I'll be back at 10:30 pm to get ready for the fight. Yes, I will be assisting in you protection. Later,"
After reading through the note for the fifteenth time, Robin glanced back up at the clock and saw that it was only 8 pm. Suddenly, a wave of sleepiness made itself evident to Robin, and she lay down on the couch in Nagira's Law Office. She decided it was best to rest for a bit coming to the conclusion that being tired during tonight's fight was not the smartest idea. As she closed her eyes, she let her mind slip into the calming peace of darkness

The wind was beginning to blow restlessly in the street where Nagira's office was. Nagira, himself, was frustrated at having to fight his way to his building. The wind was really pushing against him making the likelihood of bumping into things greater.
Finally, the wind subsided, and Nagira sighed in relief, lifting his head up so he could see in front of him. Unfortunately, the wind only stopped so that it could change direction, attacking from behind with the same ferocity it had before.
Now, Nagira felt like a strong hand was forcefully pushing him towards the office building. Upon getting to the front of the building, Nagira started to wonder whether fate was trying to get him to stop something before it started.
Standing in front of the entrance to the office building, was a young girl, who looked about the same age as Robin. This strange girl held an aura of cold, unknown fear that lashed out at anyone that came near her.
Her pitch-black hair danced in the raving wind, exposing her pale, soft features. She had a lean, sculpted body, and just from the way she was standing, people knew she was strong. She wore a grey off the shoulder witches dress, the kind made for adult Halloween costumes, which were held on by a black spaghetti strap. There was a slit down the center, starting from her thighs, revealing tight black shorts, and smooth, pale legs, cover by black fishnets. She a pair of black, leather boots that reached to just below her knees.
Nagira would be gapping at her, had he not been frozen with the fear of venturing into the unknown. He was able to snap out of his stupor when he noticed that she was staring up at the windows of his law office. He scrunched his eyes trying to figure out what such a strange looking girl would want at his law office.
It wasn't until he saw it, the maniacal smile on her lips and the cold unforgiving eyes to go with it. It wasn't until he saw it that he knew what she was so excited about, why she was in front of his building, and why she was staring up at the window...

(Should I leave a cliffhanger here? hmmmm...yep. I think I will gets attacked by angry readers okay, okay, no cliffhanger. hahahaha. People today)

She was after Robin. Nagira narrowed his eyes, and decided that now was definitely the time to make his move, and besides, he knew she wasn't going to do anything yet. He strode forward, and shoved his way in front of the frightening girl, and slammed the door to the office building behind him.
He hurriedly made his way up to his office, and nearly broke the door down. There was Robin, napping peacefully on the couch in the room. Nagira just chuckled to himself and walked over to his desk by the window. As he slid into his chair, he whipped his direction out the window. And then he saw nothing, just a feather falling lifelessly to the ground.

The girl just stood in her same position, not even flustered by the man's actions. Her maniacal smile revealed two small fangs that seemed to be growing. She began to laugh to herself, and disappeared when the clouds blew over the building.

"...obin," Robin could hear her name being called to her in the emptiness of her mind, "Robin...Robin wake up," she slowly opened her eyes and saw Nagira bending over her, hid hand on her shoulder in an attempt to wake her from her sleep.
"Uh," Robin sat up feeling very groggy, "What is it?" she asked rubbing the sleep out of her eyes. She quickly glanced around the room, noticing that the lights were on and that it was dark outside. "What time is it?" she asked, suddenly aware of her surroundings.
"It's nearly eleven at night, and Amon just called asking me to escort you over to Raven's Flat," Nagira replied, "He said we all need to be prepared for the 'visitor'," Robin gave him a tiny smile, amused at the enjoyment Nagira was getting from the anticipation of fighting this mysterious witch. Robin, on the other hand, was more than a little wary of fighting someone whose' name brought about such cold fear in her heart.

Robin and Nagira stepped out of the elevator onto the carpeted floor. Suddenly, Nagira was shoved to the side, nearly crashing into the wall. Standing in front of a surprised Robin, where Nagira was seconds before was Dojima.
"Robin, Robin!!! Are you all right? Are you sure you want to fight? How have you been holding up? Do you know anything about the hunter?" Dojima was bombarding Robin with questions that the poor girl wasn't even getting a chance to answer. Luckily, Miho came to the rescues, putting her hand on Dojima's shoulder.
"Now, Dojima," Miho started in her mother-like voice, "Why don't we give Robin some time to get situated, this is a lot for all of us to understand," Robin gave Miho a warm look that clearly said thank you. She looked behind the two, at the rest of the occupants in the room. Sakaki was lounging against a chair, talking to Amon about something. Michael was furiously typing away at something on his computer.
Robin walked up behind Michael, and bent down a bit to see what was on the screen.
"What are you looking for?" she asked in her usual, quiet voice. She noticed numerous windows up showing pictures of the strange book that she had seen last night.
"I'm trying to find as much information as I can about this book, 'The Book of Shadows'," Michael replied, completely absorbed in his research. "Unfortunately, the only places I came across that had any information were regular fan websites. These were the websites that people who wanted to take up the Wicca religion, or are just interested in witchcraft come for information. But, all the information I have found are just rumors that everyone has picked up on," Robin could tell that Michael was getting frustrated, and decided to leave him alone. It was at that time that Amon came forward with a huge bag. He placed it on the table in the waiting room area of the floor.
Everyone looked inside to see a wide assortment of weapons and such. There were of course, the orbo guns, then there were a variety of swords and knives made out of pure silver, and last but not least, there were regular guns that carried plain and silver bullets.
"Amon, we're fighting a witch, not raiding a vampire's nest," Sakaki sarcastically commented. Amon gave him a bored look with a hint of annoyance.
"From all the fan sites Michael has been reading, we found similar information on each one," Amon explained calmly, "What all the rumors sum up to, is that there is a coven that has similarities to vampires, and can be dealt with in the same way. That's why we have all this pure silver. These rumors are all that we have to work with, so the silver weapons might not work,"
After Amon's explanation, the atmosphere in the room was one of complete seriousness. Michael had even stopped typing once he heard how grim Amon's voice sounded. Nobody knew ANYTHING about this hunter, and everyone was anticipating the worst.
Robin and Karasuma started to sway back and forth, and looked drunk. Nagira caught Robin as she was about the fall backwards, and Dojima supported Karasuma. Sakaki stole a glance at the clock, and then turned to the rest of them, his eyes were dark with apprehension.
"Guys," his voice was low and monotone, "It's midnight,"
