When the bus stopped at Raven's house, Warren gave her hand a slight squeeze and let her off the bus. She felt privileged that she was with Warren, although he was beginning to act like his normal self. She sighed and went into her house to find it all messy. She felt like this was more than a robbery. She looked around and realized that her grandmother didn't go to the doctor today, she had to be here.

" Grandma!" she ran upstairs and into her grandmother's room to find utter horror. There lay her grandmother…dead. " O god." Her grandmother's body lay limp on the floor. Raven felt hot tears form in her eyes as she went to check her pulse… she really was dead. She called 911 and not too soon after the ambulance and police came, Warren came, nearly running over a cop. When he saw Raven with one of the cops, he ran as fast as he could through the growing crowd.

" Ray are you alright?" He asked as he hugged her tightly to him. Raven sobbed on his shoulder and nodded.

" Someone killed my grandmother, I don't know who... but when I find them they'll regret it." Warren felt Raven's arms heat up intensely. He grabbed her shoulders firmly and looked at her.

" Not here Raven, you know the rules…" he looked around and saw that the news trucks were coming by. " O shit Ray I have to get you out of here…" Raven's eyes widened. They ran as fast as they could to Warren's car and drove off. When they reached the Paper Lantern, everyone had to stare at Raven. Warren wouldn't stand for it; the girl's grandmother was killed for godsakes.

" What the fuck are you all staring at?" he snapped as he took her up to his apartment. He and Raven sat down on his bed. " I'm very sorry Ray." Raven's breath was hitched.

" I don't understand who would do this." She said as she wiped her tears away. Warren brought her in a glass of water.

" Try to get some sleep Ray… no one is going to bother you here." He laid Raven's head on his lap and waited for her to fall asleep. When he knew she wouldn't wake up, he got up, and looked out his window. There was so much cruelty in this world. There was no pity for even the ones who couldn't defend themselves. That's why Warren hated this place. People kill for thrills and even for money… it was all sickening… all of it.

The next morning Raven woke up with Warren close beside her. She had a headache and was feeling groggy. She got up, and went to the bathroom to change. When she came out, Warren was awake and surprisingly ready for school. This time, he had his hair tied back.

" I thought I'd make you feel a little better by putting my hair up." Warren tried to make Raven smile, and as usual it worked. When they finally arrived at school, everyone just had to stare at Raven. Then, as Warren and Raven entered homeroom, Ice and her friends started to giggle. Raven tried to ignore that fact they were there, but they intentionally began to talk louder. Warren gave her a reassuring look and went back to his book. When homeroom was over, Raven nearly ran out of the classroom if it wasn't for the fact of Ice running on front of her.

"Sorry." She said sarcastically. Raven's hand caught fire as she was about to turn Ice into ashes, but a firm hand gripped her wrist.

" No. I don't want to lose you that way." Warren let go of her wrist and walked down the hallway beside her. He could tell she wanted to cry, but her reputation wouldn't allow it to happen. Just when Warren and Raven were about to enter homeroom, Mr. Medulla stopped them.

" Mr. Peace, you need to report to the principal's office right away. Warren glared at him, but didn't say anything. " We only need to ask you a few questions, you're not in trouble. Warren looked down at Raven. She needed him, but now he couldn't be there for her.

" Whatever." Warren scowled as he followed Mr. Medulla to Principal Power's office. When Warren arrived, he slumped on a chair and sighed. " What's this about anyway?" Principal Powers had a serious look on her face… this must mean there was something terribly wrong.

" Warren during the after school hours yesterday you were working right?" Warren nodded.

" Yea, then when I heard about Raven's grandmother I went out to her house and talked to her, why?" Mr. Medulla stepped beside Principal Powers.

" Warren we don't know to say this, but we have found evidence that your… father was the one who did this." Warren shot up from his seat.

" That's bull shit my father is in jail! Its impossible for him to do anything!" he went to walk out of the room, but Mr. Medulla spoke up.

" Mr. Peace, your father was broken out of jail yesterday. By whom we don't know for sure, but we may have an idea, but we cannot just say she did it. " Warren looked back.

" Did you say she?" Mr. Medulla nodded. " Who? Who do you think did this?"

" We can't tell you that Warren, it's completely confidential." Warren's fist ignited.

" My father is loose, and I want to know who let him out! If he even thinks about hurting Raven… I'll kill him. I don't care if I get put in jail, he isn't going to ruin the only thing I have left…Suddenly, the lights went out. The screams of terror could be heard from the other classrooms and hallways. Warren's heart raced as he thought of the possibility of it being his father. Then, principal Powers took her microphone and began to make an announcement on the loud speaker.

" All students please remain calm and stay in your current class room. Sky High is on a official lock down." The doors and windows of Sky High were sealed up with what looked like to be prison bars.

" What's happening?" Warren asked.

" Someone is trying to attack the school, and now our power is out." Mr. Medulla said as he looked around. " Just great." Warren then blasted the door right off the hinges and ran down the hallway.

"MR. PEACE COME BACK HERE!" Medulla yelled after him. Warren didn't listen, all he knew was that he had to find Raven.
