A/N: I don't own the Teen Titans. Please review.

Chapter Five

Raven ran through the woods. Her breath was short and heavy. Suddenly a howl burst into the night air. Raven paused and listened. The first howl was joined by several other howls. Her eyes widened in horror. If she had been whole, she wouldn't be in so much terror. But her human side felt that fear with every fiber of her being. She knew that those wolves were after her. She didn't know how, she just knew. I have to keep running. Raven thought. As she rounded a large oak tree, she slipped behind it and tried to catch her breath. A sound came to her ears. Sniffing, they're sniffing me out! She groaned in fear and looked around her for something, anything that could help her. That's when she saw the low-hanging tree branch above her. She grabbed it and climbed up. Raven leaned against the trunk of the tree and hoped that the wolves wouldn't smell her up there. She heard growling as the wolves drew closer. Please don't let them find me.

Do you smell her? The lead wolf asked his companions.

Yes, She is somewhere in this area. One of the wolves answered.

She has stopped moving, but she is not on the ground. A wolf commented. They all raised their noses into the air and sniffed. Their red eyes glowed a little brighter as they caught Raven's scent.

The large tree straight ahead. The leader said. The six wolves advanced. They began to circle the tree and they started growling loudly. Raven looked down and saw them.

" Go away, leave me alone!" Raven shouted down at them. They stopped and looked up at her.

Just come down and follow us back to our mistress, we were ordered not to harm you Raven. So don't make this harder than it has to be. The leader said. Raven wanted to believe that, but she was fully human now and she was very frightened.

" No!" Raven yelled at the top of her lungs. The leader shook his head and they began to circle the tree again. Raven felt hot tears run down her face as she realized that she couldn't stay up in the tree forever.

Present: the boarding house

It had been a few days since the Titans had captured Correa and still she refused to help them. " Why do you bother?" She asked as Starfire tried to convince her to help them for the twentieth time.

" Because raven is my dear friend and I want her back." Starfire said sitting in front of the woman tied to a chair.

" I am afraid that she can't help you anymore." Correa said. Starfire gave her a questioning look. " Her demon side has been separated from her human side, she doesn't have powers anymore, so why would you want her back if she is weak?" Correa asked.

" We want her back because she is and always will be our friend." Robin said entering the room. " I don't have any powers and look at me, I'm the leader of this team." He said. " I could teach her everything I know and she would still be able to kick ass." Correa was shocked. If she had lost her powers, the Lords of Salem would have killed her. The Titans just wanted their friend back, no matter what had happened to her powers.

" Ok I'll help." she said after much thought. " You have to chant the spell after you drink a potion, otherwise you could be ripped inside out and land in the past a heaping pile of blood and guts." She said. Robin cringed as this image flashed through his mind.

" How do we make the potion?" Starfire asked. Correa told them all the things they needed.

" How on earth do we get that stuff!" Cyborg asked.

" I know where to get it." Correa said taking a bite of food she hadn't taken in days. " I'll take you there but it will be very dangerous, why do you think we don't time travel very often?"

" Well I guess we better get started." Robin said. " Where's Beast Boy?"

" He is with Kristal." Starfire said.

" Go get him, we need to hurry, who knows what Raven is going through." Robin said.

Past: Lords of Salem camp

" My lady, you wished to see me?" Leila asked as she entered the tent that Demon was living in.

" Yes, Leila." Demon said from her throne-like chair. " Terik told me about how you helped Raven." Leila tried to run away but Demon appeared in front of her. She grabbed Leila by the throat and lifted her off the ground. " Don't worry Terik didn't betray you. I simply read his thoughts."

" What are you going to do to me?" Leila asked.

" Nothing." Demon said dropping Leila and returning to her throne. She sensed the confusion that Leila had. " I believe in second chances. So don't blow this one, because it's the only one you'll get."

" Thank you, my lady." Leila said dropping to her knees.

" Please call me..." Demon thought for a moment. A smile formed on her lips as she found her new name. " Ravana."

The woods

Raven had been in the tree for two days. Her stomach growled in hunger and she was tempted to go down. But her fear of the wolves had overcome her hunger. So she stayed in the tree. Come down Raven. The leader of the pack said.

" No!" She tried to scream. But her voice was cracked from not having any water. The wolves laughed because they knew she was close to giving up and coming down.

" Get away from her!" A girl shouted as she ran toward the wolves. She waved a torch in one hand and a sickle in the other. The wolves saw the fire and their primal fear made them run away. " Come down you are safe now." The girl called up to Raven. Raven climbed down and tried to stand. But she was to weak and fell to the ground. The girl who had saved her ran over and lifted her head off the ground. " Do not worry miss, I will take you to a safe place." The girl lifted Raven into her arms. Raven wanted to say thanks but she was weak and fainted.

A/N: The girl who saved Raven will be a main character of this story so you will see her quite often from now on. I hope this chapter was to everyone's liking. Please review.
