Chapter Five: Inferno

The night was warm, and sounds from the bustling city drifted across the still waters of the bay to the T-shaped tower, sitting there serving as a sign of protection for the people of the city, giving them a sense of peace. However, the figure leaning on the edge of the roof of the tower didn't feel the same way.

'That's it, it's over, I blew it,' thought the teenager leaning on the ledge with his hands in his hair, staring out at the millions of individual lights cast out from the skyscrapers of the city, 'she probably wont even talk to me anymore, I should just leave and get out of her life so I won't cause more harm.'

Raven quietly phased onto the roof and was about to approach him when she heard him talking to himself.

"I wanted to tell her that I thought she was the most beautiful, amazing, intelligent girls on the planet, or any other for that matter, but what do I say? I really, well like you. Man did I really blow it." She saw him put his hand to his forehead and sulk even more.

All of a sudden a rush of emotion caused Raven to break the single light by the doorway.

"Wha!" Dan jumped in surprise, "Raven, I….uh…how long have you been standing there?"

"Long enough," Raven told him as she suddenly flew over to him, embracing his head in her hands; she pressed her lips to his. At first he seemed completely shocked, but slowly returned the kiss. The kiss went on for what seemed like a lifetime, until they needed to break apart for air.

"Raven, what was that, I thought that, I mean," Dan stuttered in a confused, yet happy tone.

"You never gave me time to answer," Raven replied sarcastically, as she pulled him in to another kiss.

"I guess this means that you like me back," Dan said as he smiled at her, staring into her lavender eyes.

"No, really?" Raven said playfully as she put her hands on her hips.

Dan stared at her, "May I have this dance?" he inquired as he gracefully took her hand.

"Wouldn't it be a little more romantic if we had some music?" She asked softly.

"Listen Raven, the sounds of the city, the water lapping the shore of the island, the gulls quietly circling in the air, it's natures song." At that moment, she knew she was in love with him for sure.

I know this chapter was rather short, but it only served the purpose of starting the relationship between Power Surge and Raven. Also, I need to know from the "audience" if the next chapter should be a mature chapter (remember, I will have to change the rating) or simply continue the story without including that (I go by popular demand).
