"you know something Slade? I liked the titans, I really did" Raven said, her hands caressing the half human skull, her eyes fix on the abated tower.
"you did?" I asked incredulous, I was on my feet again facing her back.
She didn't turn to answer
"of course I did, they where like a family to me, like a bunch of siblings"
here she raised ciborg's head to her own face level
"aww…cyborg…he was like a big brother, treating me as her sister, always offering me his protection"…she chuckled…"as if I needed it".
A green explosion illuminated the red skies.
"Yet you finished them" I suggested, expecting this to cause her some suffering, some sadness…anything.
"I was a good friend…and I know they wouldn't have liked to live in a world like this" she grinned.
I thought Raven was right, the blood skies, the magma oceans, vegetation and animal life lost forever and humanity turned into stone. This wasn't the kind of world the titans would have liked.
When I first met Trigon I didn't even imagine he have such power.
Another explosion make the walls shake.
The tallest of the gray skinned guards appeared on the door, blood in his hands and axe, his armor crackled and his hole body filled with deep cuts
"we've finished with several of the attackers, but they've trespassed our air defenses"
Raven turn back and face the guard completely indifferent to his wounded appearance.
"nothing to worry about Tenebrus" she pointed at the cuts which glowed red for a moment and healed instantly "return to battle…oh and give Slade your axe, he'll join you in a moment" she said
"yes mistress" he lend me the blood covered weapon, made a reverence, and disappeared in thin air.
"I will not fight for you" I shouted.
"oh, yes you will" she whispered, her four eyes narrow,
"I'm not your servant" I shouted even louder,
At this point the remaining guards started to draw nearer, menacing looks in their eyes, with expressions of having heard great blasphemies.
"oh, yes you are" she answered with an evil smile.
"you can't force me"
"of course I can"
"yeah? And how?"
"like this" she answered at the time she pointed to my face…and then...
pain beyond anything I have ever felt before…red and black energy crackling all over my body…pain, and a moment later it was over.
I was lying on the floor facing her
"you can't keep me like this forever" I said breathing heavily "one day you'll lower your guard…and then I'll…" here I stop…
Raven smiled
"That sounds familiar" she exclaimed.
Well, I know my English is not the best, but consider I am doing quite an effort here. If you want to now the feeling try to write this story in Spanish.
