When they arrived at the library Raven suddenly felt a sense of peace .all the tension she had been carrying around seemed to melt away. She loved books, their gently bound covers and scent always had been there for her.
The library was silent when they had arrived only a few people in at the moment which was normal for this particular library, until Raven recognized one of them.
It was the old man from her book shop! He sat in the next to the "Obscure titles" section exactly where the book that had cast the spell was located. Jinx, Beast Boy and KF were already over there not ones to dawdle and breathe in the library, but Raven took her time making a small detour to talk to the old man.
When he saw her his wrinkled face crinkled into a smile.
"Hello my dear," he said when she was close enough "I was wondering when I was going to see you here."
"Why?" asked Raven "How would you have known we would come looking the book."
"Well you bought my special book on your last visit," he said with bitter sweet smile "Nothing good has ever come of that book."
Suddenly before Raven could ask him what he had meant by that, one of the other patrons of the library yelled "Fire!" and sure enough there were large red and orange flames coming from the direction her team had gone in.
When she surveyed the room it seemed all the civilians had gotten out except for the old man, he was trying to save the books.
Quickly she grabbed him and teleported out outside, then left him outside calling 911, as she went back for her team.
As she ran throughout the burning library screaming her friend's names, she wouldn't lose them too.
When she had covered the entire library, she realized they had already left but before she could teleport out a giant beam of wood fell on her and knocked her out.
And there Raven lay in the middle off a burning library.
Meanwhile outside of the library Beast Boy, Jinx and KF were watching it go up in flames, when they had found the book they were looking for. It was an old tome with bound with green leather and it had yellowed pages.
Then they made a stupid mistake. They should have realized it shouldn't have been this easy, when they had taken the book off the shelf eagerly the entire section including the book had burst into flames. Obviously Mackenna didn't want anyone tracking the spell. Jinx had dropped the burning book, but thinking quickly and moving just as KF ripped out a page knowing it was their only hope of finding the other.
'How are we going to get out of here!" yelled Beast Boy "The entrance has been sealed by the fire, She obviously doesn't want us to get out."
"Like this," said Jinx as she fired a hex bolt at the brick wall behind them. It collapsed revealing the outside. Quickly they stumbled outside, coughing as they went.
As soon as they had been checked over by the paramedics (well BB and KF had, Jinx had refused), Beast Boy Began searching for Raven, she had been in the front of the library of course she had gotten out. She had to be there was a gas mane in that library it could blow up at any moment.
Except Beast Boy couldn't find her familiar, dark silhouette anywhere, with a shaking hand, he grabbed his communicator to call her. He listened to it ring…no answer and his blood ran cold. Quickly he turned on the emergency tracker that KF had installed for him.
On it was her personalized blue raven sign…inside the library.
He ran back to KF and Jinx "WE HAVE TO GO BACK IN!" he yelled at them almost manically. When they stared at him cluelessly, he continued "Raven's in there!"
He didn't bother wait for them he just sprinted towards the burning building, he was almost there he could save her.
Suddenly a pair of arms wrapped around his waist, when he turned around it was KF holding him back, "Why are you doing this!" yelled Beast Boy "She's in there, she needs my help,"
"If you go in there Beast BOY, you'll die and there's no way you can help her or your friends you're dead," said KF while struggling to hold him back.
"Don't throw your life away!" said Jinx
"She is my life," said Beast Boy and then he finally broke free from KF, but before he could take a step closer the library exploded and along with it went Beast Boy's heart.
