Here is your chapter 15 just as you hoped…I need reviews…I'm not posting the next chapter until I get at least 5…This is actually a semi-good story but I feel like I'm wasting my life on it. I could be doing other things and I know not everyone likes an OC but I know the story is well written. I'm going to go back and fix up the other chapters before I update this again, if at all.

Chapter 15: Resurrection

The Tower

Even though Cri was by far much stronger than Beastboy, he insisted on carrying her home. He was just so happy to have her back with him that he actually shoved Raven out of the way as he entered the tower. She dropped her book and glared at him, baring her fangs and hissing softly. Beastboy ignored her carrying Terra away, leaving her standing there with a perplexed look on her face. She blinked in confusion a few times before she realized who Beastboy was holding.

"Terra?" Raven asked softly.

Cri appeared next to her, nodding. "He is so happy now…He deserves a person like her…"

Raven just stared at the Dhampir, a look of utter shock painted clearly on her delicate features. "You actually managed to revive her? I tried every spell I could think of!"

Cri nodded enthusiastically, making her hair ribbons jingle. "Sure did! Now if you don't mind, I'm gonna raid the fridge. That spell took a lot out of me…"

She made her way over to the refrigerator and began devouring anything that did not have blue fuzz on it, leaving Raven too stunned to speak.

Soto walked up to her and watched his love. "Is there anything left?"

She looked up at him and shook her head, just as she took a large bite out of a turkey leg. "Nope! But I'm going shopping anyway…"

Soto smiled at her, his fangs gleaming in the dim light. "Alright."

Cri stood up and wiped her mouth. "Come on Raven…Let's go see Terra."

Raven nodded, and levitated into the air. Cri left the room, dragging Soto with her. Raven followed, her feet floating a few inches off of the ground.

By the time the trio had reached Terra's room, every Titan was crowding around her bed. Even Spike had come to see what was going on. Raven Told Soto and Cri to wait outside, and she walked in, looking down at the traitorous Titan.

"Hello Terra…" She said, her voice holding a slight edge.

Terra looked up at the empath, her misty eyes focusing on the gothic Titan. "Raven?" She whispered. "You're wearing black? It's a good look for you…"

Raven seemed to tense slightly and she looked away. "It just symbolizes my newfound corruption…" She spat. "At one point I was actually pure…Then…Then the veil disease took that from me…"

Cri cast her eyes to the floor, waves of guilt washing over her. Raven glanced back at Cri, an apologetic expression on her face. "Terra…I want you to meet the one who revived you…And the one who kept me from loosing my mind to the disease…" She motioned for Cri to enter, and the dhampir did so, her lips tightening.

Cri touched both of her wrists and clapped her fists together in a formal vampiric greeting. "Greetings Terra…Beastboy has said much about you…" She smiled slightly showing her fangs.

Terra seemed shocked for a moment, and then squinted slightly. "My eyes are playing tricks on me…"

Cri raised one eyebrow. "Oh you mean my fangs? I'm dhampir…Half vampire…I drink blood" Terra just stared at her, shocked.

Suddenly something seemed to click in her head and she looked back at Raven with the same look of awe and fear. "Then by corruption you mean you're now…"

Raven nodded, pulling her hood further up over her face. "Please don't remind me…"

Beastboy seemed to perk up. "That reminds me Raven! You went out feeding last night! How was it?"

Raven literally jumped back and looked at him. One could vaguely see the blush under her hood before she hung her head again. "I don't want to talk about it…" She mumbled softly.

Beastboy, being Beastboy, didn't know when to quit, so he pressed the matter. "No, tell us!" He begged.

Raven drew back more, shaking her head. Beastboy was just about to ask for the third time when Raven turned on him, her eyes were glowing a bright and deadly crimson.

"Dammit Beastboy!!! I loved it more than life itself! Are you satisfied now? Now that you know I'm nothing but a blood-thirsty monster?" There was blood running down her face now. No, not blood, tears. Tears of rage and self loathing.

Beastboy ran to a corner and cowered there. If Raven was angry enough to curse then there is a high probability you will not survive. She looked about to jump him, her fangs bared in a snarl. She turned and ran out of the room instead, fleeing from the pain.

Cri called her name as she left, but Raven didn't stop. Cri's eyes burned crimson her gaze boring into the changeling with the fury of a thousand suns before running off to comfort the distressed empath.

Beastboy looked around the room at everyone glaring at him. "What?" He asked. Something suddenly clicked in his brain, and he hung his head, his ears drooping. "Am I in trouble?"

The reply was instantaneous, unified, and very loud. "YES!"

Cri tracked Raven up into her room, where she found the empath sobbing in a corner. Cri silently entered the room. Raven had hid her emotions so effectively, the dhampir hadn't even had the slightest impression of the self loathing her fledgling was experiencing, spawned purely from her new existence.

Cri walked up to Raven, wrapping one arm around her trembling shoulders. Raven instinctively turned and wrapped her arms around her sire, burying her head in her shoulder. Her nails dug into Cri's back as her grip around her tightened.

"Why did you do this to me Cri?" Raven sniffed, her eyes closed tightly.

Cri sighed and ran one gloved hand through the empath's violet hair. "I did it to save your life Raven. You are a major part of this team, and they need you."

Cri pushed the demonic dhampir back slightly so she could look into her eyes. "I know there is a cure, but I need you to hold it together until we figure out what it is. Can you do that for me?"

Raven reluctantly nodded, wiping her eyes with the back of her hand.

The War

A spotlight streamed down from an unseen source in the infinitely high ceiling above. Immediately the area around her was filled with hooded figures. The extreme contrast of the spotlight and that of the dimness around the dhampir cast the faces of those around her in shadow, save for one. Alkoroth stood in the center, his armor gleaming in the dim light. He looked like some magnificent pagan god of war, beauty, and power.

Cri knelt before the members of the Peacekeepers, her arms and hands motioning the traditional vampiric signs of respect. Slowly, she rose to her feet, eyes expertly scanning the room.

"This is an ambush" She remarked bluntly. "A very poor one."

Alkoroth merely smiled, his carnivorous teeth shining horribly. "Why, yes it is little dhampir. Our original plan was to infiltrate your vampiric base and discover who the traitor among you is, but I thought it best if we eliminate the vampiric scum entirely. We shall, how you say, kill two birds with one stone."

The dragon snapped his fingers, each one of the hooded figures drawing a knife of silver, the gold gilded hilt reflecting around the room as if the half vampire was surrounded by a ring of hellfire, hungry demons ready to pounce as the ring contracted itself ever tighter.

"Traitor?" Cri asked softly. "What traitor?! What do you know Alkoroth?!" She ended with a shout, her body trembling. Things did not bode well.

The elfin dragon had removed one of his gauntlets, examining his nails with utter boredom. "It matters not. Soon your soul shall burn in hell where it belongs. Do not worry, soon you will be joined by the rest of your foul kind, I assure you."

Cri looked around at the hooded figures, prepared to spring for a killing strike. "You're right Alkoroth." She said, her eyes and chakra gem flaring to life, ignited with the flames of her anger. "It doesn't matter." And with that said, the cloaked figures dashed forward, daggers raised high.

The Tower

Cri had barely enough time to comfort Raven before an excited Nightingale tackled her to the ground, hopping up and down excitedly. "It's snowing mommy! It's snowing!"

The dhampir rose to her feet, and approached the window. Sure enough, it was snowing outside.

"Can we go play? Please mommy?" The young vampire begged. She had already donned her snow attire, her father standing behind her, a small smile gracing his usually stoic features.

"Come my love and let us embrace this winter wonderland." He spoke, over dramatizing his words with large sweeping actions.

Cri nodded before smiling goofily down at the empath. "C'mon Raven… You know you wanna… Vampires love the snow!"

Without waiting for an answer, the dhampir scooped up Raven into her arms and carried her out of the common room.

………

Somewhere, on the mainland, a sniper was perched atop the roof of a tall building. Titan's tower was nestled quite comfortably in his scope. In his rifle, was a heavy, armor piercing round made of pure silver.

The time it took me to write the last chunk of this chapter was amazing. Wow. Have I ever lost interest in this story. This will probably be my final update unless you people really want me to keep going. Please review and tell me so, if you even still check for updates…
