A/N: An interesting fact was brought to my attention. Apparently, there were no burnings at the Salem witch trials. And after some research( Via History Channel and some browsing on the internet) I have found out it is true. They didn't burn them, they hanged them and sometimes drowned them. I thank the person who brought this to my attention. I don't own the Teen Titans. Read and enjoy.
Chapter Four
Demon removed her red hood and knelt in front of Raven. She took Raven's chin in her hand and brought her face close to her's. " You should have taken the offer." Demon said her four eyes narrowing menacingly. Raven tried to hold back her tears and Demon laughed at her. " Oh, are you going to cry? Well, go ahead cry like a bitch." She laughed a little bit more and released Raven's chin. " I can't kill you so don't worry about that." Demon said her red eyes becoming lavender.
" Why not?" Raven asked wiping away the salty water on her face.
" Because we are two parts of the same person. If you die I die." Demon said walking to a river and looking into her reflection. She fixed her hair and turned to Raven. " So I'll keep you alive but just barley." " Take her away." Two witches grabbed her and she tried to use her powers but she couldn't. Of course not. She thought. My powers are fueled by my demon side, she has all the power now. Raven sighed and allowed the witches to take her back to the bed she had slept on. They cast a spell and vines wrapped around her wrists.
Present
Robin threw an ice-bird-a-rang and hit Correa. She froze and was trapped in a block of ice. " Whew that was tough." Robin exclaimed. Suddenly lighting surged through the ice and it shattered.
" Your going to have to do better than that." Correa said and attacked with a huge blast of energy. Robin went through the window. Starfire punched Correa in the jaw which sent her into one of the bookshelves. A particular book fell and a wall opened.
" So this is where you are keeping friend Raven." Starfire said as she , Cyborg, and Beast Boy went into the secret room. Robin, who had recovered, joined them after making sure Correa was knocked out. " Where is friend Raven?" Starfire asked.
" She's not in here, she's in there." Beast Boy said pointing at the mirror on the wall above the pentagram on the floor. They saw Raven tied up with vines in a forest.
" How do we get in there?" Cyborg asked.
" Perhaps one of these books can tell us." Starfire said. Robin nodded and took a book down from the shelf on the right wall. He read a few passages and tossed it aside. Cyborg read another but couldn't find anything.
" Hey guys this might be it!" Beast Boy said excitedly. They all read over what Beast Boy had found. It was a spell that would transport them to the past!
" Is there a way to return?" Starfire asked.
" Yeah, but only one person can travel to and from the past. One of us will have to go and the rest will stay." Robin said.
" I will go." Starfire said.
" Are you sure?" Robin asked. Starfire nodded. " It says that only witches and warlocks can use this."
" We'll have to convince Correa to help us." Cyborg said.
" How?" Beast Boy asked.
" I don't know but we'll think of something." Robin said. They took the book and went back into the main part of the store. Correa was just waking up when they came in.
" Please Correa we need your help to rescue Raven." Starfire said. Correa looked at her with hate in her eyes before spiting on the ground. The Titans realized that this was going to take awhile.
Past
Raven lay on her bed of leaves and tried to sleep. But Demon's laughter as she butchered another sacrifice and the screaming of that sacrifice kept her up. She tugged at the vines that held her there but to no avail. There was a snapping of twigs and Raven sat up. Leila stood in the darkness making sure that the others couldn't see her. " Raven." Leila whispered.
" What is it?" Raven asked not sure if she could trust her. Leila walked over and used a spell to make the vines whither. " Why are you helping me?"
" We don't have for questions, just leave quickly before she takes notice. I'll explain everything if we meet again. Go!" Leila said. Raven got up and thanked Leila. She slipped out of the area into the night.
" That was an unwise decision, Leila." Terik said. He had seen everything. Leila looked at him with fear. " Leila you are like a sister to me, I will not harm you and I will not tell her. But if she asks I will."
" I understand and thank you." Leila said. Terik nodded. They returned to the ceremony, where Demon had just started the toast.
" To my father lord Trigon( Since the good in Raven hates her father, I like to think that her evil side loves him) and to the high warlock, who made all of this possible." Demon said taking a sip of the blood. That next morning, Demon discovered Raven missing. " No! I want her found now!" She called forth a pack of wolves and enslaved them. " Go! Find my human half and bring her back to me!" The wolves, who had now grown four red eyes, set about to do just that.
A/N: Please review. Both good and bad would be most appreciated. Thanks.
