Starfire had stopped screaming and the building remained quiet until the old man wandered in.
"Is it done my queen?"
Raven nodded, biting her lower lip. The old man sighed and smiled, your children will receive the blessing. The old man looked down on her and left. Skyton fumed under the blankets.
"You're not Raven."
She looked at him innocently, "Skyton, I'm Raven alright, there's nothing wrong with me. I've just gone home to my people. Try to understand. I still love you."
"And I hate you, because you're only a shell of what Raven was," Skyton growled standing. Raven stood too and backed away into the corner as he approached.
"I'm more Raven then you ever knew her to be. What do you think we daemons are? The good folk of happy-go lucky world? You think I'm like that twerp, Starfire? No!"
Skyton slammed her up against the wall and held her wrists back, she groaned
with pleasure as their bodies touched. Skyton threw her hands down, "Stop it! You're not
some little fuck! What are you doing? What did Slade do to you"
Raven pushed him back, her fingers on his chest, "Calm yourself Skyton. There's
nothing to worry about"
"Nothing to worry about! I thought you were being raped down below when you
disappeared. And what about Starfire, what the hell was Slade doing to her? I suppose he
was just giving Star some innocent sex Ed wasn't he"
Raven threw her head back and cackled, "Stupid man, there are bigger things at
stake here than one woman's rights"
"The woman I loved would never have said that"
"The woman you loved is standing right in front of you. You're just too blind to
see it"
Slade strode in, fully dressed, leaving Skyton feeling more than inadequate. He
kissed Raven, wrapping an arm around her shoulder.
"You always had a thing for younger women didn't you Slade," Skyton smirked.
"I wouldn't be making such insulting taunts if I were you"
"What are you going to do? Kill me?" Skyton asked, "Slade, killing me would be
a welcome release from this hellish life of mine"
"Hell? All three worlds are hell now. My home, earth, and heaven. By the by, I
must thank you for bringing my spy there. You've really helped me out"
Skyton clenched his jaw and looked around, catching the sight of two daemons
dragging Starfire between them.
"Skyton!" She called. Skyton looked at her with sadness and turned away.
"Slade, I wouldn't mind getting dressed"
Slade raised and eyebrow, "That's against angel tradition"
"Well now, I'm not much of an angel anyway. I just brought about the end of the
angel rule"
"I couldn't have asked for a worthier father to my wife's children," Slade said.
Skyton breathed in shallowly, "May I ask for something Slade"
"Please, ask away"
"Try and stay still while I rip your major organs out," Skyton said calmly while
pouncing on Slade and sticking his hand deep into Slade's heart. Slade coughed and
collapsed.
Skyton got up, wiping the blood on the sheets. Raven looked at him, entirely
unfazed, "What do you think you've solved now"
Skyton clenched his stomach muscles and swung a punch at Raven who
predictably threw him against the wall with ease. The restraints around his wrists came
back and Raven left quietly; a black dress shirt and slacks were thrown into the room.
The restraints were dissolved and a red beast with scaly wings lumbered into the room.
"The queen requests that you meet her outside for the birth of her children. No
questions asked, do it or die"
"Wait, " Skyton called as the creature was leaving, "what about Starfire"
"The girl has been sent to Raven for a faster pregnancy. She will be there when
you arrive. Hurry"
The beast stood there as Skyton got dressed. The clothing was perfectly fit and he
rolled his shoulders adjusting the shirt. Skyton was about to walk away when he turned,
"Hurry"
The creature turned a red neon eye gazing upon him. Skyton looked carefully at
the massive creature. It was at least two feet taller than he. Skyton was puzzled. "What do
you care? You're just out to kill us all"
The beasts right arm suddenly folded three different ways revealing a large blue
sonic cannon. The creature looked Skyton in the eye saying quietly, "Booyah."
