There is some magic in this chapter! I DO NOT BELIEVE IN MAGIC OR FOLLOW SATAN! I just thought it would be cool to put a spin on things NOOOW here is the second to the last chapter of…
Sky High 2: To Walk a Hero's Path
Raven looked into the eyes of her father, waiting for her life to flash before her eyes. How cliché she thought never thought I'd have a life to reflect on. The truth is, she never had a life until she went to Sky High and met all her friends and the most special person she would ever meet in her life; Warren Peace.
A silent tear came down on her cheek as she thought about him. The memory of him still warmed her inside her heart letting her know that her resolve to be cold until the end was crumbling into pieces as more tears fell down her face. Her mother would've called her soft, Coach Boomer would've had a field day, but she knew Warren, Warren would comfort her until the last minute… The last second…
Lord of Shadow walked towards Raven, his eyes demanding his power at the ripest moment. It would all be over soon.
He gently raised his hands to cradle Ravens face close to his.
"Are you ready?" The Dark Lord asked. Raven couldn't speak; she was frozen in place being slowly devoured by the Lords eyes. A simple nod was all the movement she could manage.
The Lord of Shadow smiled a dark undeniably evil smile and freed Ravens face to take a few steps back to the Receiving Circle a few meters from her Circle of Sacrifice. He raised his hands into the air and spun around in his own personal Heaven while Raven watched in her personal Hell. He set his hands down next to a woven bag and traced a star with the bag as the center.
"Obey these words of power
Watchers of the threshold
Watchers of the gate
Unbar the guarded door
Obey this command of this
Servant of power…"
Raven opened her eyes as wide as they could go. She felt her powers being drained as she realized what her father was doing.
"Blak Magick…" The Lord of Shadow spoke with a sinister smile on his face as he winked.
"There has been unfairness done to me"
The purple light shot out through the cracks of the grounds and all around the Lord of Shadow and Raven. He looked up and raised his hands loving the scent of power beyond our world was controlled by him. He laughed an evil shrill as if he had already absorbed Ravens power. Which in some ways he did; half of Raven's power had been spilled into the air allowing whoever to take control over it.
"Any last words my lovely daughter?" He cried out. Raven stared in horror and slowly looked down. All the faces of the ones she had grown to love flashed before her eyes.
Goodbye… Everyone…
With the silent farewell she closed her eyes.
"Funny… I was about to say the same thing to you!" An all too familiar husky voice rang out in the sunset. Raven's eyes snapped open.
"Who do you think you are you insolent pest?!" The Lord of Shadow yelled out.
"Warren. Warren Peace." The voice rang out again and the sound of a fist made contact with flesh sending the Lord of Shadow into a temple wall. Raven lifted her head up to see the one person she would have never thought to see again.
"Warren!" She cried out with happy tears splashing off her face. Warren turned to smile warmly at her. He made his way toward her when Raven saw something behind him.
"Warren watch out!" The Lord of Shadow threw himself at Warren causing them to fly towards Raven. She braced herself for impact when someone grabbed her waist and suddenly she felt like she was weightless.
"Will!" She called out looking at her savoir. Will smiled down at her as they made their landing on the ground. She turned to see Layla, Magenta, Zach, Ethan, Jetstream and the Commander entering the scene.
"Guys! You're all here! I thought you…"
"We knew you and Warren didn't steal the cloak by your own free will" Magenta said
"And we definitely knew that you would never turn your back on your friends." Layla concluded. Raven began to tear.
"You guys…"
"No time for make ups we gotta a very high level villain out there! We're gonna need all of us to do it." The Commander said. "Let's get going."
"Wait!" Raven stopped the movement. "I know how to stop my father!" Everyone listened. "You need to get him in the circle I was in and get him into the chains I'll do the rest."
"You sure it'll work?" Jetstream asked.
"I'm positive. My father was using blak magick to summon out my powers and I can use the same magick to put them back." Everyone nodded and the Commander took charge.
"Alright let's get him into that circle!" He commanded.
"Well give you enough time to get into place. Get ready." Jetstream told Raven. She nodded and started to run.
It won't be so simple… Just to get them back… Raven thought He'll always try to get them back even though I'm not at the level he would want. She ran faster as she thought. He has to be destroyed… For everyone's safety… not just mine…
Raven was struck in the side by an all too familiar knee.
"That was always the problem with your fighting skills Ray-ve. You always thought too much!" Kathy punched Raven right in the stomach and sent her flying into a stone bench. She heard someone call her name but didn't register who it was. She groaned as she got up, coughing up blood in the process.
"Aww. What's wrong Ray-ve? Can't get a hold of how a real human feels when she gets kicked into the dirt?!" Kathy said coming closer. Raven struggled to get up but her legs wouldn't move.
Move… just… MOVE!
"Sorry Kit Kat." Raven said smiling a sadistic smile as she limply stood up. "You're so last year…" Kathy screamed and charged at Raven. Raven's eyes glowed black and purple and shot as much as she could of black fire at Kathy. Kathy burned in the fire shrilling an ear shattering cry as her body turned to dust. Raven slumped to her knees, her breathing staggered.
"Kathy… I'm sorry..."
Warren and the gang were having a lot of trouble handling the Lord of Shadow Magenta and Ethan had been long since knocked out from the first hit and Zach had to take them to safety which just left Jetstream the Commander Layla Will and himself.
"Will!" Layla said trying to put a hold on the Lord her vines were beginning to break and everyone knew she couldn't last much longer. Someone had to think of a plan to move him into the circle.
A circle! That's it!
"Will! Get Layla's vine and wrap it around Shadow!" Warren yelled at his super powered friend. Layla gave Will her vine and wrapped it around.
"Layla pull! Mr. and Mrs. S push with me!"
"Good thinking Warren!" the Commander called as the pushed the Lord of Shadow finally into the ring.
"Layla hold him down just long enough to put the chains on!" Will called out to his love.
"I'll try!" Layla promised. Her vines wrapped around the Lord of Shadow while he struggled. Will cuffed him into the stones and stood.
"We did it!" Will proclaimed. The Lord of Shadow began with a low grumble then it slowly morphed into a full out laugh.
"You stupid fools! You really think these chains can hold me?!" He pulled against them to the point of cracking. Everyone faltered.
"They won't but this will!" A small be powerful voice sounded in the night. The Lord of Shadow's eyes bugged out from their sockets.
"I call upon the Ancient Ones from the great abyss to do my bidding I invoke Cuthalu, God of Anger and the creatures of the underworld hear me now…"
"No!" The Lord of Shadow roared as the chains constricted him with the power he had first summoned that was now taken away. He looked in fear for the first at his greatest strength and now worst fear.
"There has been unfairness done to me"
Raven Star
The purple light was now turning into a lavender color and everyone had to take a step back from the Lord of Shadow.
Layla had a bad feeling about this. She had read many books concerning the dark arts. (Just in case her mother sold herbs in certain types and quantities that looked suspicious) She also read into energy colors and she couldn't remember the color purple… Until now.
"Purple means Power gaining…"
That would make sense because her father wanted Ravens power…
"The four watchtowers shall lay their eyes and minds
There shall be fear and guilt and bad blood
There shall be submission and no pity"
The energy taking over the scene turned into black with shred of dark and light shades of purple like they merged together in the spell…
"Black… Destructive…" Layla's eyes widened and she ran toward Raven.
"You can't Raven! There has to be another way!"
Raven paused and looked over to Layla sending her flying into Will's protective arms.
"There is no other way Layla!" She glared. She looked at Warren who stood there knowing somewhat now what Raven intended to do.
"I love you." Warren whispered.
Raven continued.
"Bones of anger, bones to dust
Full of fury, revenge is just
I scatter these bones, these bones of rage
Take thine enemy, bring him pain…
"Warren you can't let her do this!"
"She knows it's the only way…"
"Warren you don't understand!" Layla cried tears on her soft face. "She's going to kill herself to kill her father!" Warren snapped out of his trace.
"I see thine enemy before me now
I bind him, crush him, and bring him down
With these bones I now do crush
Make thine enemy turn to dust…
"I thought she was going to give up her powers."
"No Warren! Blak magick means destructive power! She'll kill herself if she finishes the chant!" Layla screamed.
"Torment, fire, out of control
With this hex I curse your soul…
Warren started for Raven.
"Thou shalt be blinded by the fear…
Damn those memories…
Raven remembered the first time she met Warren his "Don't mess with me" attitude and how he tried to light her ass on fire.
"Blinded by the pain…
She remembered the way he looked into her eyes and saw through her into her and never wanted to let her go and feeling the same about him…
"Blinded by me…
Bound by me…
Cursed by me…
She heard her name ring out into the night as she looked her father straight in the eyes.
I'm not afraid of you…
"Raven!" Warren ran as fast as he could.
I'm not afraid to die…
"RAVEN!! NOO!"
I… I'm afraid… to leave you behind
She saw the familiar flashes of faces she loved and grown close to hold against her heart. Landing on the last person she would ever see and the first person she would ever miss.
"RAAAAVEEENN!!"
I'm sorry Warren…
"So may it be!"
