Johanna waked up around 12:00 A.M., it was surprisingly snowing and the temperature was -5°C, she put her jacket on and went to the 2 kids, which were playing Dragon Panic, she asked them:

"Do you know why is snowing outside in this time of year?" they both said no.

"I've heard the news and they don't actually know why!" David exclaimed, putting on a blanket.

"Pretty strange, even the temperature outside is dropping really fast, hear this" Frida added as she turned on the radio.

"This is the climate news, with Fred Nilsson, the temperature is still dropping and it's already -15°C, we recommend to not leave your house and get as warm as possible…" Frida turned off the radio. Johanna worried about Hilda and her companions.

"I hope they are alright, all we can do is pray for them" David fretted. Johanna started making hot chocolate, hoping that all of this ended soon, at least there was no fight in Trollberg.

Hilda started running to the mountain as it started snowing heavily, but she couldn't enter in as there was almost no caves and these didn't have anything interesting, they were starting to lose hope when Twig founded a little door in the floor, the three of them entered as Alfur doubtfully asked:

"Do you think Victoria is using Raven for his experiments? I mean, it makes sense, Raven was captured by Victoria and it started to make a snow storm without any climate spirits"

"All says it's true, but I hope she haven't done anything to him" she answered.

She turned on a lantern and walked the narrow corridor. Then she founded an iron door, she asked Alfur if he could enter in and open the door. As he was opening the door, Hilda started imagining Raven in her room, talking again about how he was almost hunted or when he fought some big bears, and she started thinking that he wasn't just a big Raven praised by an entire city, that even when he is a bird, is also a bit human, that he acts like a human sometimes, but she went back to real life as she heard the door opening:

"You're welcome!" Alfur sang as he jumped on Hilda's backpack, then they entered.

It was a big room with a medical bed and a machine on his back, who showed some pipes transporting blood. "Raven's blood" she thought "Victoria uses Raven's blood as fuel for his experiments, that damn bitch!" she opened the next door which send to a great, circular hall with a big machine in the center, were the blood entered and made some strange noises, and in the bottom, Victoria, pushing some buttons "She made this storm maker using Ravens blood" Hilda thought and then she yelled to Victoria:

"Stop your mad scientist shit! Unless you want to make it the hard way"

"Ah! I was waiting for you, but too bad I don't want any interruptions now!" Victoria said as she was getting a shotgun and started shooting to Hilda, running and taking cover.

"God dammit! Why I didn't bring anything for combat if I knew I would be in one?!" Hilda groaned"

"Don't ask m-LOOK OUT" Alfur pointed on Victoria as she was getting closer, Hilda started running again.

They ran to a dead end as Victoria said. "Sorry, I need some tasteful revenge" she pointed her shotgun to them. "Any last words?"

"I just w-"Hilda was interrupted as Raven destroyed the wall in the other side of the room.

"DON'T YOU FUCKING DARE TO PULL THE FUCKING TRIGGER" He yelled as he started flying towards Victoria, who started to shoot on him, dodging the bullets.

Raven threw to the wall Victoria, who stood up and got a pipe for defending herself, Raven got some wounds on his wings and peak, but Hilda gained time and started to watch on how to destroy the storm maker, while Raven left Victoria unconscious.

"Well… Victoria knows how to defend pretty well" Raven said perplexed, transforming into his smaller form "She could make me some big wounds on me, but anyways, what are you doing here?"

"Saving your ass, maybe? What do you else think?" Hilda joked, trying to figure out how to turn off the machine. "We would need some help, don't you think?"

"Ok, ok, I'm helping… any ideas of how to turn this off?" Raven answered, seeing the big machine.

"Maybe Victoria has the keys" Alfur suggested as he pointed on something that appeared to be a bolt.

Twig went to Victoria and found some keys, Hilda grab them and tried to turn off the machine until she founded the right key and turned off the storm maker.

"Should we destroy this? I mean is dangerous if someone finds this working" Alfur cautioned.

"Good idea! Raven, can you destroy it?" Hilda suggested.

"Say no more!" He answered as he transformed and destroyed the storm maker, then he said. "Now thank you for coming here and save me, Hilda, Alfur and little Twig!"

"No problem, We came here after…" Hilda started saying as Victoria woke up and grabbed the shotgun, Raven discovered what was Victoria doing and yelled:

"HILDA, WATCH OUT" Raven then transformed in his bigger form and pushed Hilda as he received the bullets from the shotgun, falling to the ground.

"RAVEN!" Hilda shouted as she was getting a revolver from the table and shoot in the head of Victoria, killing her.

Hilda ran towards Raven's body and hugged it, she could feel the blood of Raven mess her clothes, but she hugged him even stronger and started crying

"Don't leave, Raven, Don't leave us, don't leave me Raven, DON'T YOU FUCKING LEAVE ME, PLEASE!" But he didn't answered, Hilda still tried to wake him, but Alfur interrupted:

"It's useless, Hilda, he have left us" After hearing this, Hilda left him and started crying even louder.

"No, NO! It was me that should be dead, I'm not that important, you are Raven! YOU ARE! FUCK YOU!" she sobbed, and she punched the corpse, Alfur and Twig also started crying.

"You're hurting me more than I am already! Stop!" He said as he opened his eyes and transformed back to his smaller form. "I'm not dead, I'm just trying to sleep".

Hilda opened her eyes and saw Raven standing in front of her, bleeding but still alive. "OMG, DON'T DO THAT AGAIN! I THOUGHT YOU WERE DEAD!" She cried of happiness as she hug Raven, who screamed.

"Don't hug me now, you're hurting me and I'm weak!" Hilda retired a bit from him, but he continued "In my bigger form, I can handle some bullets without dying, but dam! That hurts!"

"Sorry… I didn't know you lived in a cave as almost a human!" She answered.

"Meh, it's more comfortable than a nest and some worms, but not that 'bird'" Raven admitted "But we need to go back to Trollberg anyways! I bet they are already in anarchy.

"It's cold outside thanks to the storm maker, I don't think anyone is destroying Trollberg!" Alfur interrupted the conversation. "But can you fly even in your actual state?"

"Well… The pullets didn't hit on the wings, so yeah!" He answered. "Let's get out from this shitty place"

Everyone left the lab and got to the surface. Raven transformed and the rest got on his back, they flied back to Trollberg. They entered Hilda's house, Frida, David and Johanna ran towards them.

"You're back! And with Raven!" They cheered and hugged Hilda.

"Damn, Trollberg seems a shithole! Are you alright?" exclaimed Raven.

"Do you think you should light the sky this night? I mean, maybe you will return Trollberg to normality" David suggested to Raven, he nodded. "Thanks, we need it"

That night Raven flew on the sky and light it, everyone looked up and cheered "It´s the Great Raven, we are saved!" "I told you he would come" "Long live the Great Raven",

Hilda looked him until it was time to get sleep, It was a hard day after all! But when he started to feel asleep, Raven knocked on his window, she opened it and he mumbled:

"C-can I sleep in your room? I don't want to be kidnapped again, and also is cold outside" Raven looked embarrassed, but Hilda answered.

"Yeah! No problem, in fact, we can share the bed!"

"But… but you don't care?" He gasped.

"No, not at all!" She answered.

They both slept in the bed. In a moment, Hilda got a nightmare, so he hugged Raven as if he was a Teddy bear. He waked up after this, but he didn't mind at all!

While they were resting, some lights started to glow in the dark, waking Twig, who looked curiously looked at the two lights glowing on Hilda and Raven, these ones seemed to move and change of position, and then they entered back, Twig looked confused, but it didn't gave importance.

Fin…?
