RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!

Inuyasha screamed as the bullet ripped through the flesh and bone of his hand. The pain was unbearable. But he had been through far worse pain.

……kagome…... NO!

He caught himself as he fell back and brushed off the pain as he clenched his mangled hand, coating his claws with his own blood. "BLADES OF BLOOD!"

There was no time to react; the attack struck the Hunter point blank. Blood spurted freely from the gaping wound; as his eyes began to fog, he blindly squeezed off 2 shots, each driving into Inuyasha's chest. The force of the impacts hurled the bloody warriors from each other. Silence filled the twisted battlefield as a pale girl streaked down into aftermath.

Raven glided down towards Inuyasha's still form. She could barely believe all the carnage surrounding her. She ran to Inuyasha's side kneeling to examine the extent of his wounds. It was bad…very bad. But he would probably make it. He turned his head towards her. "He's gone isn't he". He saw the confused look on her face. "His body, its gone isn't it", he struggled with the words. She looked on at where the other boy had fallen. He was gone. She looked back at him, "Where did he go"? He chuckled, then winced at the pain. "Damn"

The Hunter stumbled into a cave as blood continued to flow from the gash in his side,

"God Damn that guy was good…and he's probably still alive." He slumped against the cavern wall and took off his long coat, tearing off a strip of cloth to wrap around his wound and staunch the blood flow. Then he reached into one of the many pockets inside his jacket and pulled out a large piece of carefully wrapped bread. "Thank God for ambrosia." He muttered himself. As the sacred grain revived him, he drifted off to sleep.

He was awakened by the glow of the pendant stringed onto the pommel of his sword. "What the hell?" Suddenly the blade spun on the ground, stopping with the amulet pointing deeper into the cave, he grabbed the hilt and the leather cord securing the pendant to the blade grew tighter. It was as if it was being pulled, and without warning the cord snapped, and the pendant shot off, growing brighter as it did to light the path. Leaping to his feet, he grabbed his sword as he sprinted off in pursuit of the glow. He found it floating in front of the statue of a beautiful girl, her hands outstretched

As though to expel some unknown evil. The hunter marveled at the incredible detail of her strange armor. It looks like it was shredded to pieces… he thought. As he stepped towards the magnificent statue, he could see an engraving, "Here lies Te-"Suddenly his pendant let out a flash of light that blinded him. When his vision cleared, he saw the statue had vanished leaving the girl it depicted in its place, naked, transformed from stone to flesh. She fell into his arms, her golden blond hair shining in the glow of his amulet. He wrapped her in his coat and turned to retrieve his medallion, but once again the engraving caught his eye. The light had burned away the dirt covering the name. "Here lies Terra, a Teen Titan, a true friend." At the sound of the name the girl stirred. She squinted her eyes, looking up at him. "Who are you?" The Hunter smiled, this girl was breathtaking, "I'm a Seraphim, and you look like you could use some clothes." Terra closed her eyes and drifted back to unconsciousness.

3 months later

"Starfire, are you sure about this club?" Terra squeaked as the T-car pulled into the parking lot of the sparkling new Club Dante. Raven startled her by suddenly entering the conversation, "Relax Terra, its going to be…..fun." Starfire peeked over her head rest, "Yes! Tonight will be most enjoyable, and perhaps we will see friend Raven's boyfriend…" CRACK. The T-cars radio exploded. A deep blush lit up Ravens face.

"….ooookayyyy, so Bumblebee, whose playin at the club?"

Bumblebee looked at Terra in the rear view mirror, "I think it's an underground band, their called...' she looked down at the flyer in her hand, 'Fallen Angel Symphony, huh, weird name." Pulling herself out of the car, Raven searched the rooftops for any sign of Inuyasha. "I wonder where he went after the battle…"she started at Bumblebee's voice, "Hurry up Rae! You don't wanna miss the band do you?" Raven turned and raced into the club.
