Secrets told

Raven's room

Anna finished explaining to her friend about everything. How the people she works for sends her out in the world to save humanity from the supernatural. Save them from monsters, demonic cults that attack teenagers with cameras, evil boxes that contain a dark spirit inside, demons, and in one occasion she even fought a storm that was raining sharks.

After the explanation Raven lets out a small sigh and tries to process everything. From Slade coming back, to seeing her future, to now finding out the Vatican wants her dead, and the girl who saved her is her assassin.

"So, any questions?" asked Anna who is sitting near Raven's bookcase.

Raven slaps Anna's hand away from the bookcase. "I have a lot and I also request you stay away from my books."

"What? I like to read," says Anna as she walks towards Raven's bed. "So, what your questions?"

Raven decides to ask the obvious one. "If you were send to kill me then why did you save me last night?"

Anna knew that question was going to be the first one and answers honestly. "My bosses think your death will save the world, but their boss the Pope thinks there is another way. I agree with him and so here I am. To help you find another way to live without me putting a bullet through that pretty head of yours."

Raven ignores that comment and asks another question. "How does your organization know about me? I thought the people of Azarath were the only ones who know about this?"

Anna knew this question was also going to be asked and answers it honestly too. "They found inscriptions in a lost temple long ago that prophesied of the arrival of a demon from another dimension that will destroy the world. It also tells how that will happen when it's gem frees him and brings about the end of the world."

Raven looks on shocked that the Vatican all this time knew about that prophecy. She always thought the people of Azarath were the only ones who knew about this prophecy.

"So, they know who I am then?" asked Raven getting a nod as a response from Anna. "And the Pope wants you to help me? Why?"

Anna shrugs her shoulders. "I don't know why, but it doesn't matter. If he thinks there is a way then I will help you stop him."

"How?"

Anna leaves the room for a minute and comes back with her duffle bag. She opens it and shows Raven her toys. "We do it my way."

Meanwhile

Robin is in Cyborg's room to get the information about Anna. But what he finds is something that left him shocked.

"What do you mean there's no information about her?"

"What I just told you," says Cyborg who was as surprised as his friend. "I couldn't find anything on her. No birth certificate, no passport, no history, hell not even a library card."

Robin couldn't believe it. How can this girl not exist? There should be something about her. They got her DNA and fingerprints, which should get them something about her.

"Who is she then?"

Cyborg was unsure himself. He stayed up all night trying to find anything about this girl. He almost ran out of power when he did and still couldn't find anything on this girl.

"I ran her DNA to see if she's human just in case."

"And" asked Robin wondering what the results are.

"She's human, but…" Cyborg shows Robin the DNA of Anna. "It's different from our own. I mean it's human, but there's something else there. I don't know what it is, but I can't seem to analyze it."

Robin sighs in frustration. First they couldn't find where Slade is hiding and can't figure out who this Anna is.

"What do you want to do Robin?"

"I'm not sure," in truth he did have one idea left in mind, but it's risky. "I'll need to talk to Raven first about what happened last night and then we'll deal with Anna."

"All right, she should be awake by now," says Cyborg as he puts away his computer. "Should we tell the others?"

Robin shook his head. "Not yet, we'll wait until I talk to Raven. Hopefully she'll be able to shed some light on who this Anna girl is."

Raven's room

"So, your way of stopping Slade is to shoot him" Anna nods her head. "So you're going to kill him?"

Anna nods her head. "Yes and don't worry the guy is not human anymore. I think you already figured that out when you fought him."

Raven knew Anna was right. After everything she threw at him last night, he still kept coming. "So, what is he?"

"That doesn't matter," Anna cocks her gun. "What matters is for us stopping him from harming you or your friends."

Raven nods in agreement. "I should tell my friends about this."

Anna stops Raven from leaving. "Wait, I think you shouldn't tell them. At least until after I take care of Slade."

"What? Why?" Raven asked.

"He's too dangerous for them and I can't have them around since they would be a distraction," explained Anna who puts her gun away. "It's for their safety and it won't make you worry about them getting hurt again."

Raven did want to tell her friends the truth, but that would only get them to protect her. That means they would try to go up against Slade and fight to keep her safe. If they do that and they get hurt it will be her fault. Telling the truth is not worth them getting killed, especially if it's for her.

"So, you want me to lie to them?"

Anna shook her head. "I'm not telling you to. It's your choice, but for their safety it would be better if the truth was kept from them."

Raven knew what she had to do. She gets from the bed and walks towards the door, but not before turning her head over to Anna. "Are you going to stay?"

"No," says Anna as she grabs her bag. "I'll leave since I don't want them to suspect anything. However, if you need me then call me."

Anna hands Raven her cell phone number on a piece of paper. She puts it away and opens the door letting both girls out of the room.

Raven then decided to ask the girl one more question. "Can I ask you something else?"

"Shoot."

"Can you really stop him?" replied Raven hoping Anna can really stop this from happening.

Anna stares at Raven and smiles at her. "I will, I promise."

Anna leaves the room and gives Raven the chance to think about what she'll do. If she does lie to her friends and they find out they will probably be upset. On the other hand if she does tell them the truth they'll try to save her from someone they can't stop. He isn't like anyone they fought, he's a monster.

"Raven?" She hears Robin calling out to her and knocking on the door. "It's me. I need to talk to you."

Raven walks towards the door and opens it. When she did she wraps her arms around him and gives him a hug. Robin returns the hug and remembers they haven't see each other since the incident last night. He's glad to see she's okay and from his pov it seems she was happy to see him.

"I was so worried about you," says Raven who is relieved to see her friend again. "When I couldn't see where you were at the church I was afraid that you were…I'm glad that you weren't."

Robin understands her feeling and is relieved too. "I thought Slade kidnapped you when we found your communicator. I'm glad to see your okay…you are right?"

Raven breaks the hug and lets out a small sigh. "I almost wasn't if it wasn't for Anna. I take it you met her?"

It was Robin's turn to sigh as he nods. "She told us she saved you and she brought you back home. Did you talk to her?"

"Yes," replies Raven. "She told me she talked to you guys and that you were okay with letting her stay for the night."

"We did," replies Robin. "However, I wanted to wait until you woke up to tell me if she told you anything. Did she?"

"Not much," replies Raven who hates to lie to her friends, but for their safety perhaps it is for the best.

"Well, what did she say?" replied Robin.

Raven decides to continue with the lie. "Just that she's looking for someone and will be in the city for a few days."

"Did she say she was going to stay here?"

"No, she's staying at a hotel," replies Raven telling something true about Anna. "She gave me her phone number in case I needed anything."

"Why?" replied Robin.

He's glad they got her phone number, which means they can track it. Still, seems odd that she would give someone she just met her phone number, unless she's asking for a date.

"I guess she thought when she saw the state I was in that I would need someone to talk to." Raven soon regret saying those words since she saw Robin looks upset. "Don't worry, he didn't do anything to me. I was just exhausted after he chased me around the city."

"But why?" replied Robin. "Why did he come after you? Do you know about that symbol? And what were you going to tell me yesterday?"

Raven wished Robin didn't remember what she said to him last night. She was going to tell him the truth, but when Slade interrupted them there was no need. Now, she has a chance to tell him the truth. The question though is should she tell him or lie to him?

Raven makes her choice. "Robin, I don't know why he came after me. All I know is he tackles me to the tower and delivered his message, but I blacked out when he did."

"And then he threw you?" replied Robin as Raven nods giving him his answer. "Okay, well what about the symbol? Do you recognize it?"

Raven again lies. "No, I've never seen it before."

Robin sighs disappointed that she doesn't know about the symbol. He'll have to hope Cyborg finds something.

"Is there anything else you want to ask me?" replied Raven.

Robin did want to ask more about Anna, but since she is not going to stay in the tower then he won't ask. He could, but he'll have to deal with her later and focus on Slade.

"Raven, I'm sorry for not being there to help you. I promise though we'll find Slade and we'll figure out why he was after you," Robin forms a fist and punches the palm of his hand. "And we'll stop him together."

A small smile appears on Raven's face. "Thank you Robin."

Robin smiles in return and puts his hand on her shoulder. "Get some rest. You're safe with friends. It's over."

Once he left Raven close her doors and leans back against it. She falls to the floor and sighs. "What am I going to do?"

Will Raven tell her friends the truth? What else is Anna hiding? Is it a big secret? Or is it nothing at all? Find out next time to see what happens next.
