Sorry for taking so long to update but I was waiting for 20 reviews. I had no one say that I shouldn't turn it to M so i'll probably change it to M a little later. Anyway, thanks a lot for all the reviews, I LOVED THEM! I seriously was so happy that people liked it. Anyway, this chapter I'm introducing the main antagonist so it's pretty eventful.
Also sorry if Jinx is a bit OOC in the beginning it's only because she hasn't had her powers for a while and hasn't been a villain so she's starting to forget that she was ever the villain, especially now that she's on the other side of it and is the one being terrroized. But enough of that, ENJOY!

"This would look cute on you." I held up a blue tank top to Rachel.
"What is it?" She picked it up like a dirty diaper and twirled it around confused.
"A tank top. You know a shirt." She looked at it like it had betrayed her trust and then turned to me with a questioning expression.
"Okay, well there are more things." I took the shirt from her and set it down on the rack.
"It only had a string in the back. That's not weird?"
"No."
"But wouldn't it move around weird and be uncomfortable." She asked.
"You usually would wear a bandeau with it so it wouldn't matter."
"A band-what?"
"Nothing, let's just check somewhere else, okay?" I pulled her over to a rack of muscle tees. "This is like a t-shirt with no sleeves." She raised a questioning eyebrow. "Here, try it on." I dumped a shirt on her and pulled her to the dressing rooms while piling more and more clothes on top of her. "Now go." I pushed her into the small room and shut the door.
"Are you done yet? You've been in there for like 15 minutes." I knocked on the door impatiently.
"I can't find anything that looks good." She yelled to me from the other side of the door.
"Just show me something."
"Alright." She came out of the room in dark jeans and a blue muscle tee.
"That's so cute." I said not sure that she was the same person.
"Are you sure?" She said in her monotone voice.
"Yeah, you look pretty decent." She blushed a bit and backed into the room some more.
"Okay then." She picked up some stuff. "I'll get these." She bought some band tees and a bunch of dark colored jeans. I threw in a pair of white ones just because. We stopped for smoothies and were walking to Tillys when a giant boom sounded from behind me.
"What was that?" I whipped around and saw a gaping hole in the side of the mall. Smoke engulfed a large area of it and people stood staring at the hole in confusion.
"I don't know." Rachel tensed up next to me. A dark figure became visible in the fog and we watched as they made their way into the open.
"Hello." A deep voice echoed through the entire mall. "I'd like to introduce myself to you all."
"We should go." Ravens voice was a whisper.
"Yes we should." I said under my breath, but neither of us moved. We were both frozen where we stood. In reality we wouldn't be like this, but here, where we were both powerless and Raven had no knowledge of who she was—here we were scared.
"I'm Cretor. As in creator, because I created this world and now I will rule it!" He emerged from the fog and I finally had a good look at him. He was a large man and wore gold armor on his left arm, right leg, and ribs. A red cape was attached to his shoulders and held around his neck by a large red gem. He had baggy black pants that were tucked into his gold plated boots and a red long sleeved shirt under all his armor.
"Bow down to me and I shall spare you all." It was like some sort of joke. The way he talked, the extravagance of it all, and mostly the over-the-top introduction. The mall was still completely silent and no one moved to do what he asked.
"You don't believe me?" He walked with heavy footsteps to a girl that was about 5 feet from him. He had pale skin with a tint of blue to it and sharp eyes that were completely black like a demons. His ears were pointed and his silver blonde hair was slicked back and spiky like sonic the hedge hog's.
"I don't know I—"The small brown haired girl stumbled over her words, terrified of the mountain before her. He lifted her chin with long black fingernails, making her look into his blank eyes. The girl was shaking and I felt a bit sorry for her.
"You don't know what?" He snarled, tearing her shirt. She released a small scream and guarded her chest with her arms.
"What?" He growled still holding her chin. He pushed her to the ground and produced a long staff with a gem on top of it like the one on his chest. With a great flourish it shot a beam and half of the mall was reduced to rubble.
Now the girl was really shaking. Her whole body was moving as she fell to her knees in terror. She looked up at him with her shirt in pieces and tears running down her cheeks. She bowed to him with her forehead on the floor and arms stretched out before her.
"That's what I thought." He said smugly as everyone began to follow the girl's lead and bow to him. Raven stood firmly beside me with a grim face.
"We should bow." She said with her eyes wide. It was almost incomprehensible that she could be so scared from just that when in another life she could destroy the whole building without lifting a finger. She began to get on the ground but I grabbed her arm making her stop. Now we were the only two standing.
His eyes settled on us and the corners of his mouth were lifted into a smirk. Raven was shaking beside me but I grabbed her hand helping to steady her.
"How cute." In an instant his face was barley an inch from mine and we both glared at each other. "What do you think you're doing?" His icy fingers held my chin making it impossible for me to move away from his face. I looked defiantly into his black eyes. If anything good came from my memories it was that I kept my confidence. His hand crept up behind my ear and I shivered a bit. His skin was like ice.
"Bow to me." He said to Raven. She looked scared and grasped my hand tighter. I shook my head at her but she slid her hand out of mine.
"Don't." I said, but Ravens knees were already on the floor. She dipped her head and was bowing like a peasant to him.
"You should do as your friend." He said with one hand still holding my head toward him and the other balled up around my shirt. I hoped he wouldn't pull it off me but still, that would be less embarrassing than bowing to him.
"Not even in hell." I said glaring at him. He looked bemused at me and then tilted my head to the side and I felt something warm and slimy creep over my neck and then up to my cheek. I cringed at how disgusting it felt. His claws released my shirt and moved to my hips.
"Suit yourself." He said into my ear. His tongue wrapped around my ear lobe and he bit it withdrawing some blood. My spine was chilled and I wasn't sure what I could do. This bastard was probably going to eat me or something. That's a downside of having my memories—I had a whole lot of pride to go with it. I felt him grip my butt and my eyes widened, he wasn't going to eat me he was going to rape me, or maybe both.
"Get away from her!" I heard a voice from behind me. Cretor looked up, letting go of my chin and making sure to give my butt a good squeze before letting go. I pushed away from him and was caught by someone's chest. "Are you okay?" I looked up at Kid Flash. He was giving me a warm smile.
"Great." I said sarcastically. He pushed me behind him protectively and looked at the king-wannabe.
"Now, I'll show you what real power is." He narrowed his eyes at Cretor and in a flash he was gone. A light fell from the top level and Cretor jumped out of the way.
"Come on." Rachel grabbed me and dragged me behind her as we got caught up in the crowd of people filing to the exit in panic.
I lost Rachel's hand and saw that she had tripped. More people ran in a herd and she was almost trampled, but a shadow of traffic colors came by, and I saw Rachel beside The boy wonder.
"Are you okay?" She nodded her head and he made his way to the ongoing fight. So, now there are two superheroes? Well, it's not too much of a stretch he never had powers anyway.
"Come-on." Raven dragged me away from the crowd with her bags in hand. "We won't get out that way." She motioned toward the crowd of people freaking out. She was right on that one.
We climbed up to the second level, careful to avoid the heroes as they fought it out with Cretor. Robin threw a bomb and jumped onto a railing, letting Kid Flash run in to attack him.
"There." She pointed at the sun roof about a mile above us.
"Okay, wait here." I grabbed a rope and jumped onto the Starbucks kiosk that was closest to the wall. From there I jumped onto a sign hanging from the roof and swung over to the wall. I let go of the poster and grabbed the small open window at the top.
"That was amazing." Raven complimented me when she had finally climbed to the top using the rope I had brought. "Now come on." She slid down the glass and started climbing down the building. That was an interesting first mall experience I almost got raped by a demon spawn sure but I got a lot of clothes.
When I finally made it home I turned on the television and saw replays of the battle Kid Flash and Robin had with Cretor. They had just barely won, if you can even call it winning. Cretor had declared that he would be back and disappeared.
"Don't worry. We can handle anything that guy throws at us." Robin said to a reporter with a fake smile.
"And who are you?" She asked shoving the microphone in his face.
"Robin. " He said before Kid Flash appeared next to him and whooshed them off too somewhere.
So, that was that. I hope you liked it if you did leave a review. If you didn't leave a review, constructive criticism is always welcome. I usually don't update until at least 5 people review so beware.
