Chapter 23

No reviews? Why? O.Q Reviews keep these stories alive you know. Without them I lose interest in my stories which makes me abandon them. And I haven't been getting any reviews for anything I've typed up. Sorry but I'm begging for reviews! Oh and WARNING! WARNING! THE FOLLOWING CHAPTER GETS A BIT…WELL YOU MAY NOT LIKE ME AFTER THIS. Sorry. .

Raven groaned when she arrived back at Klarion's house. Running into Zatanna and the others wasn't her idea of a good time. Now her nerves were raw, and she was even more emotionally exhausted. What were the chances she would run into them anyhow? It was too coincidental. Raven sighed, she was so lost in thought she didn't notice Klarion lurking behind her until she felt his arms around her waist. She jumped in surprise.

"Don't sneak up on me like that!" she shouted. Klarion scowled.

"Any other time you enjoy that sort of thing." He grumbled Raven bit her lip as she wriggled out of Klarion's grip.

"Sorry, but I'm just not in the mood…for anything right now." She mumbled, Klarion glared, "I'm gonna go lie down. I'm not feeling well."

"Where did you go?" Klarion asked as he followed Raven who went walking down the hall to her separate room. Raven shrugged.

"I went out. You weren't here so I went out. What does it matter?" She asked swallowing hard. She could feel him breathing down her neck, he was so close. Was he suspicious of her? Doubtful, he was probably just angry that she wasn't giving him straight answers.

"It matters to me. What's going on?" he asked suddenly. Raven froze.

"What do you mean?" She mumbled.

"You've been acting weird lately, I don't like it." Klarion growled. On Raven's shoulders Cherie growled a warning to Klarion. It was ignored when Klarion grabbed Raven and picked her off the ground. She gasped.

"K-Klarion put me down! I told you I didn't feel well!" Raven shouted, Cherie hissed at Klarion only to be magically tossed out of the room where Teekl sat. Klarion then tossed Raven onto her bed and locked the door. "What's gotten into you?"

"That's my line don't you think?" he asked, then pinned Raven beneath him. Raven stared up at him with slight fear as he glared back at her. What could possibly be going through his mind at that moment? Part of her was afraid to find out.

"I don't like it…." He grumbled, then tightened his grip around Raven's wrists.

"Th-that hurts, let go." She said in a small voice.

"I don't like it!" He repeated this time louder, "All of a sudden you're not telling me things! You've been avoiding me and the only time you do talk to me it's to ask stupid questions! I. Don't. Like it!"

"W-what are you going on about…l-let go…" Raven said struggling under him.

"It's frustrating! And then you spend all day retreating to this room! You're supposed to be with me!" He shouted, "You're mine remember? You belong to me, and if you have forgotten that, I'll just have to remind you."

Raven froze. The look Klarion was giving her scared her. What did he mean by that? She really didn't want to find out, however given the position she was in, she didn't have much of a choice in the matter. especially when she found herself magically pinned with her hands bound to the headboard of the bed. She stared up at Klarion, fearful. She already had in mind what he planned to do, however she wished very much she could remain innocently ignorant to his plan.

"Klarion…please do—" she was cut off by Klarion forcing his lips onto hers. The sudden action made her gasp, as well as Klarion's venturing hands moving their way toward the hem of her black spider web dress. Once there, they began to snake their way up toward her inner thigh. Klarion then began to kiss Raven's neck moving his way down to her collar bone where he gave a rough nip to her neck and shoulder junction. Raven let out a slight yelp as she then began to struggle under him, moving her hips and feet to somehow push him off of her. However this only seemed to frustrate him even more as he grabbed Raven by the waist tightly enough to dig his long claw-like nails into her. Klarion then sat up and glared at her. His coal black eyes burning with anger and suppressed passion. He then placed his onto the collar of Raven's dress, and smirked.

"You belong to me Raven, don't you ever forget that." He said in a low sultry tone as he ripped the dress from Raven's body, exposing her undergarments. Raven bit her lip as the threat of tears stung her eyes. Why was this happening? Was the world playing some sort of sick joke on her? Why did everyone she trust hurt her like this? He was supposed to be the one person she could count on. Especially after what happened with Rick and his beach-boy surfer friend. Everything had changed, since she woke up from that horrible nightmare Jason Blood had put her in. and this…this was the last straw. Once this nightmare was over, she wouldn't be letting this Lord of Chaos ever take advantage of her again.

"I can't find any books on this Uriah guy. Are you sure this guy's a Witch-boy too?" Rachael asked. M'gaan shrugged.

"I honestly don't know. I was only able to glance at her mind for a moment before the cat began to suspect something. That's all I really got was a name." She said.

"Well we can't give up yet." Zatanna said, "If Raven's getting her help from this guy I want to know who he is. After the stuff she told us before I don't want to let her get hurt again."

"Not to mention what that Witch-boy would do if he found out about the guy himself." Rachael said, "If this is a normal human boy he could kill him."

"We cannot let this Chaos Lord do that!" Starfire shouted passionately, "Could we not ask Dr. Fate…"

"No!" Zatanna growled, "I won't let that jerk bully Raven around! Every time he gets involved Klarion gets even more possessive. And this time around he might not just settle on stealing Raven….I don't want to think about what he might do."

"But am I incorrect to ask that since your father is the wearer of the Helmet of Fate, he could—"

"I SAID NO!" Zatanna screamed slamming her fist on the table and toppling a pile of books in the process. Rachael looked to Starfire.

"Star, I think you should probably lay off the Fate idea." She said, as Zatanna began to flip franticly through old magic books.

"But what else are we to do?" Starfire asked.

"I…I don't know. I'll think of something." Zatanna said, "I-in the meantime, just keep looking. I'm sure this guy's in these books somewhere."

Raven laid in her bed hugging close to a pillow. Klarion lied asleep next to her, his arms wrapped tightly around her waist which was decorated with claw marks. As well as the rest of her body. Klarion had gotten angry with her and forced himself upon her. The images of that stained Raven's memories as she sobbed silently into her pillow.

"I need to get out of here," She mumbled into the pillow, "But where can I go? I've got nowhere to stay…"

Raven sniffled sadly when she remembered the silver ring on her finger. Uriah had given it to her so that she could meet him when she wanted to talk. She trusted him, and at the moment, she could really use a friend. If anything she would be able to get out of Klarion's grip and out of his house. Raven scowled and sat up tearing herself away from the demented Witch-boy and grabbing a set of clothes as Klarion began to stir.

"Raven…?"

She froze holding her clothes in her arms as she looked back. Klarion was still half asleep, and groggy looking. Raven swallowed hard.

"L-leaving…" she mumbled. Klarion grunted sleepily and rolled over.

"Mmm. Don't stay out very long." he grumbled lazily. Raven bit her lip hard as tears filled her eyes. She stood up straight and glared.

"I'm not coming back," She hissed hitting him with a pillow, "EVER!"

Before seeing the reaction Raven teleported out of the building with Cherie Curie. Meanwhile Klarion let out a growl of annoyance and glared to see that Raven had left. He scowled.

"What the hell was that about?" He growled, then remembered she was probably pissed off about what had happen. Klarion snorted; whatever the case he figured she would get over it. It was her fault anyhow for acting so strangely. He huffed and rolled over, burying his head in the pillow, "Whatever, she'll be back."

Raven groaned as she landed on her back in Uriah's front room, with Cherie landing on her stomach. She had left in such haste she wasn't paying attention and landed wrong. She should have paid more attention. Raven sat up as Cherie mewed up at her.

"What are we doing here?" he hissed. Raven shrugged.

"It was the first thing I could think of." She mumbled, "Klarion's going to be angry when he finds out I left. I figured this would be a safe place…"

"And it is." A voice said behind her. Raven looked back to see Uriah's familiar kind face, "But what is so bad that you would come to me for a safe place?"

"I…" Raven hesitated for a moment, "I broke up with Klarion…"

Hate hate HATE short chapters but this was a good as ever cliff hanger. Sorry that last part wasn't so smooth. Please don't hate me for having Klarion do what he did. I needed a breaking point for Raven and well this was all I could think of. Granted most of it was inspired by a really good Klarion fiction that at the moment hasn't updated. 'A Shadow of a Kiss.' By Blackanomoly this chapter was inspired by the last chapter that was uploaded. I like the fiction and wish this person would finish but I'm getting off hand. DON'T HATE ME PLLLLLEEEEEAAAASE! .
