Chapter 1: Servants
Disclaimer: I only own my OC and plot, and blah, blah…just read.
Raven cried out loud and woke up from slumber. She wrapped her arms around herself to try to stop the shaking.
They were all dead, every single one of them. Her people and even the Helldareous slaves. But she knew for a while that they were all gone, and that her world was a barren waste land.
What a horrible nightmare, to wake to such a vision. She never even got to say goodbye. She blinked her eyes several times to clear the pictures, but the twisted mangled bodies still danced in front of her. She covered her face and let the silent tears come. Suddenly she heard a loud bang come from down the hall. Cautiously she opened her bedroom door and peered down the hallway.
Quickly a blue flash of light.
Again another blue flash of light.
She quietly came out of her room and walked down the hall. When she was nearing the living room she heard voices.
"Stand up Nathanial. We must make haste and find her."
"What if she is not here Davis? What if your Incantations were wrong?"
"She is the last of the race we were meant to serve. It is our job, even our way of life to serve and protect her."
"Where's Molly?"
"She and Rupert will be summoned later when we have found her, if this is not the place, I do not want to waste my energy."
"We should begin looking then."
The voices stayed still and Raven crept forward. She moved her had along the wall till she found the tiny button she was looking for. She triggered the silent alarm just when the voices started again.
"What is it? Did you find light?" said the voice that was Nathanial's.
"No, someone is here with us. Wait…"
Raven held her breath.
A smile crept into Davis's voice, "She is here. At last, we have found her. I can sense her powerful magic even in this foreign place."
A hand touched Raven's arm. "Raven, what's the problem?" asked Robin. The other Titians looked at her in question.
She nodded toward the living room. "It sounds like they are looking for me."
"Shh, she and others approach," said Davis.
Cyborg hit the lights and the two men in the room were staring at the arch way. Davis locked eyes with Raven and lowered himself with his knee bent and head bowed.
"Mistress Raven, I am Davis Servant of the Moon, First Class. My companion is Nathanial Servant of Light, First Class. We are here to serve and protect you."
"What are you doing here? None of that is part of my life anymore." said Raven.
"We are all that is left of our culture. We, and two others, are all that is left of the Helldareous. We are yours to command. We will give our lives up to death for you. I beg of you to accept our pledge."
"Um, can I say something?" asked Beast Boy.
"No," answered Robin.
"Am I in some kind of danger?" asked Raven.
A flicker of sadness passed through Davis's eyes, "Yes, you are. An ancient evil approaches."
Starfire waved her arm around, "Wait, what kind of evil do you speak of?"
"I can only tell you she is in danger and that her life will perish if I do not stand by her side and I am not leaving until she accepts me."
