Chapter 7- Ice Blue
Maiden- Most of you have already guessed what happened to Raven. La vixen de la Amor was the one who guessed precicely what happened. Much thanks to her and all of my other dedicated readers! Lots of love! R&R please!
BTW, their are two more riddles in this chapter. Try to guess what the answer is without reading ahead!
"Slade will die tonight!" she said through clenched teeth. "I will make sure of it!" Joy's rant had caused many objects in the room to fly around surrounded in her ice blue aura.
"What the hell is going on in here?" Cyborg asked as he bursted through the door at the sound of Joy's emotional outburst. Both twins were silent as they stared at the mechanical man with wide eyes. It was well known that Raven was Cyborg's favorite 'little sister' so the Jaisons were worried that he might have the same reaction as Beast Boy would...bad. "What happened to Raven?" he asked with a frantic voice. His human eye caught a glimpse of the clipboard Joy was holding and he snatched it from her grasp. Seconds later, both twins winced in the sharp change in emotion they felt from Cyborg. A mixture of anger, hatred, concern, worry and sadness. Salty tears flowed freely from his one grey eye while his mechanical one burned firey red.
"Vic, before you throw a fit, please help break the news to Beast Boy." Aj pleaded. Cyborg took a few deep breaths and calmed himself enough to let Aj go explain to Bohusk and Robin while it was up to him and Joy to break the news to Beast Boy. The changeling ran to Raven's side the instant he was in the door.
"What happened to her?" he asked the elder Jaison. Emerald eyes begging to know an answer.
"We need you to sit down for this, Gar." Joy said in a low voice, her ice blue eyes avoiding his stare. BB sat down on a stool next to Rachel's hospital bed and listened for Joy to explain.
Gar looked on in heartbreak as he examined the goth beauty. Bruises and small cuts littered her limbs, her skin was ghostly white and the marks on the insides of her legs had darkened. His emerald eyes burned with intensity as his pupil's dialated, he was becoming the beast.
"Was she...?" he began, his voice low, raspy and evil sounding.
********************************************************************************************
"What did that bastard do to her!?" Robin screamed as Aj stepped out into the hallway. She motioned for Robin and Bohusk to stay seated, fore she knew this news would come as a shock.
"Raven....was raped." her voice came out more like a sob than the quiet voice she intended. She wiped her redish/brown eyes to see Bohusk and Robin seething with rage. Dispite thier freightful appearences, AJ continued. "Thier was only a small trace of semen, so we're guessing that Raven was able to fight him off before...well, you know the rest. Her healing ablilites should kick in soon so all the damage should disapear within a day or so."
The familiar tone of Robin's comuincator softly rang throughout the hall. Bohusk ripped it from the boy wonder's utility belt and flipped it open.
"What!?" he spat with his normally hazel eyes, midnight black.
"Now is that any way to talk to the person holding your girlfriend hostage?" Slade laughed from behind his orange and black mask.
"You sick maniacle bastard! I'll kill you for what you did to Kori Rachel! And God help your soul if you hurt Vanessa or Carrie!" Bohusk's voice maniacle and evil sounding.
"I only wanted to show them a bit of fun, my boy. It's not my fault that they decided to get rough." Bohusk let out a disgruntled growl before Robin yanked the devise from him.
"What do you want, Slade?" Robin asked in a much softer voice.
"Why, only to give you your riddle to save Vanessa." Robin nodded his head, urging the villian to proceed. "I am seen in the water; If seen in the sky; I am in the rainbow; a jay's feather and lapis lazuli...what am I?"
"Blue." Bohusk said casually . "You forget that Nessa's eyes are rich cerulean and thier isn't any shade of blue in the world that dosen't remind me of them." Bohusk smiled, quite proud of himself.
"Bravo, young Jhonen. Solve this next one to find out where she is, or her eyes won't be the only part of her that's blue...Glittering points, that downward thrust. Sparkling spears that never rust." and the screen went black.
"Beast Boy!" Jhonen shouted as he thrust open the med bay door. "You're comming with me! Slade just gave us a clue as to where Falcon is and I need you to help me to kill the bastard!" Gar didn't need to be told twice, in a flash, he and Bohusk were gone from the room, on thier way to take revenge.
**************************************************************************************
"Are you sure she's in here?" Beast Boy asked as he and Bohusk manuvered around a cavern just outside the city limits of Jump. Many stalagmites pertruthed from the ground, making it hard to walk.
"Yes. The answer to the riddle that mother fucker gave is icicles. This is the only place for 300 miles for temperatures cold enough for them." Bohusk explained. The further they went inside, the colder the air around them became. Once the two were several hundred feet below sea level, the walls around them were iced over and the ground very slippery.
"She's close." Jhonen whispered, able to see hisown breath. He put a hand to the far wall and grinned. "Or, she could be right here." He retracted his only to ball it into a fist and thrust it through the thick wall of ice. Once enough ice was broken away, he and his partner were able to climb into a dark and freezing cold cell. A silouette sat a few feet away from them.
"Nessa." Bohusk said with small tears on the edges of his eyes. He moved closer to see that it was indeed, his Vanessa. She sat on her knees with her wrists bound by anti-magic chains that connected to the wall. Her white cloak and the sleeves of her blue top were gone, and her skirt had one long rip in it. If it were just a centemeter higher, it would fall off of her. Bohusk moved her long violet hair from her face to discover her skin had turned blue!
"She's hypothermic!" he screamed to Beast Boy. The hazel eyed boy wrapped his girlfriend in his camo jacket and raced outside as fast as his two feet could carry him with Gar close behind.
