LAST CHAPTER YAY! well sort of. there will be an epilogue that covers some point in the future cause this is magic number 5 story and the end to this saga. is this making any sense? my body is so tired i can't see straight but my brain just won't shut up till this gets done. where's my blasted notebook i wrote this scene on paper when i was still writing stories by hand after i got a computer for some reason-ignore me i'm getting tired and cranky.


Raven's Nest-Chapter 12

At some point after Harley left Raven fell asleep again. She stirs as someone sits on the bed beside her. She manages to open her eyes. "Kevin?"

"Harley says you wouldn't rest until you saw me."

She looks around the room but doesn't see anyone. "Where are they?"

"Across the hall in Helen's apartment. You should be resting."

"I had to see you."

"What's so important it couldn't wait until tomorrow?"

"Why didn't you tell me?"

"Tell you what?"

The kitten oblivious to what's going on inspects the CD player. He tentatively brushes a paw against a button and it starts playing an Eric Clapton CD. He hisses at the sudden noise and reaches out to swat it again but his Papa grabs him by the scruff of the neck and carries him out on the deck so the humans can have some privacy.

Helen and Harley close the door to her apartment to let the two talk.

Red X looks back startled by the choice of music. He realizes now that she has figured out who he is.

She reaches out running her hand lightly against his left nipple. "X...I'm sorry..." She breaks down crying unable to say anything more.

Red X lifts her up into his arms and hugs her close. "You didn't have to leave."

"I should have told you but I was so scared you wouldn't want me anymore. I didn't want to do it-I just couldn't bear to force that on you."

"I love you Raven. I should have told you that. I promise I am never going to leave you or the baby."

"You haven't heard yet?"

"Heard what? Is the baby okay?"

Raven takes his hand and places it over the bump of her belly. "Not baby. Babies."

"Babies?"

"Twins. A boy and a girl."

"Twins?" He looks down at Raven's stomach. "Twins..."


so for all intents and purposes this story is done for me and as i said in chapter 8 once its done that's it i won't do anymore sequels to this saga. and asking for more once i decide i'm done is prone to make me blow (PM iq battle winner my cousin on here if you don't believe me and ask about the infamous MMPR millennium meltdown) there is an epilogue coming today of all things since this chapter is so short.

you have all been patient to wait so long for the end of this story and i thank you for that. and a big thank you to all who left so many kind reviews to it. now that it is done i'm ready to move on to other things for awhile. its very late for me here as i turned out the last 5 regular chapters all in one night so i bid you all a goodnight and pleasant dreams.
