Chapter 23 - Scars

Silence filled the room, and Raven calmed her breathing to slower her heart rate. Lucas, Emily, and Chloe started at Raven waiting for her to say something.

" Hey, guys. " Raven said, feeling a little awkward since only silence was in the room and everyone was staring at Raven.

" Well, this is awkward. " Chloe said, standing between everyone and walking over to Raven to make she was OK.

Chloe hugged Raven's side, glad that she was OK and that no one was hurt. Raven looked down at Chloe and smiled down at her, and hugged her back.

Emily and Lucas remain in silence, watching them both, Emily was slowly rubbing her hand with her thumb as it felt a bit sore.

" Please, give it me straight. Who's hurt? " Raven said, looking up at Emily and Lucas looking very serious.

Lucas quickly shifted his towards Emily and looked back at Raven. Chloe let go of Raven and moved to the side.

" What happened? " Raven said, in serious tone, looking at both Lucas and Emily waiting for an answer.

" Electricity jumped out of your skin and shocked me. " Emily said, trying to make it look like there isn't much pain.

Raven got off the medical bed and stood in front of both of them and forced her eyes to glow her Galaxy Purple, and all of Raven's surroundings turned black except for anything with heat had the colour of white meaning any fire or body heat would have the colour of white in Raven's vision.

Raven looked straight at Emily, and she was a bit scared by Raven's glowing eyes but stayed completely still.

Raven looked all around Emily, trying to find where she got hurt, and finally found where she was shocked by finding a red mark on her hand and the reason why Lucas didn't see anything from the first time is because you can't see the true mark with human eyes.

Raven turned off her glowing eyes so everything would go back to normal and sign and spoke.

" I'm sorry, didn't mean to hurt you and don't touch me when I'm like that and where you got hurt, Emily. Don't act like it's not painful. You're only lying to yourself, but I can heal it with my Blood. " Raven said with no emotions.

" No, you have been losing a lot of Blood and were just passed from something just a few minutes ago. " Emily said, thinking that the reason why Raven passed out is from blood loss.

" Fine, but if that gets any worse, you are welcome for me to heal because it was my fault, and I was the one who did it. " Raven said, walking back to the bed to sit on the side.

" I'm sure Emily will be fine. She's tougher than she looks, and Plus, Emily's a healer so she would have something to help. " Lucas said, in confidence, chloe slowly approached Raven.

" Are you sure you're OK? The lights were flicking while you were out. " Chloe said, holding her own hands, hoping to get the truth.

" Yes, I'm fine. I have only been actually hurt once since I got here, but I promise I won't get hurt again as long as I'm here. " Raven said, crossing her fingers, keeping the promise.

' Chole really has taken a liking to Raven. Who knew that the shy little girl would take a liking to the scary Goth Girl. ' Lucas thought, smiling along with Emily.

Chloe had happiness on her face and hugged Raven's head, giggling with a smile.

Raven hugged Chloe back with happiness on the outside, but something else on the inside, Chloe felt the softness of Raven's hair but felt something on Raven's neck, and she poked it.

" Ow, please don't poke there. " Raven's said, placing her hand over where Chloe poked her. Chloe slowly let go of Raven and backed away a bit, titling her head.

" What? What's wrong? " Emily said, moving over to the both of them and looking straight at Raven waiting for an answer.

Raven stayed silent and moved her eyes to look away and that Emily walked to Raven's side and her hand on Raven's head to make her tilte to side, keeping her head from moving and used her other hand to move Raven's hair away to reveal a scar.

" Is that a scar? It looks like a claw mark. " Emily said, titling her head in confusion, same with Chloe and Lucas.

" Should I go? I'm not really doing anything, and should I tell Nick about this? " Lucas said, slowly making his way to the door.

" If you want, and if you want to tell Nick, you can. " Emily said, still looking at Raven's scar on the side on her neck.

Lucas nodded and opened the door, exiting the building, closed it, and walked away to his house.

" Can you let go of my head, please it's aching. " Raven said because she wanted to get everything over with.

Emily let go of Raven's head and pulled up a chair from the side and sat in front of Raven, and Chloe sat next to Raven on the bed.

Raven was staring at the floor, and her eyes were blinking rapidly like a code.

* ... .... --- ..- .-.. -.. / .. / - . .-.. .-.. / - .... . -- ..--.. / -... ..- - / .. ..-. / .. / -.. --- / . -- .. .-.. -.-- / .-- .. .-.. .-.. / .- ... -.- / -. --- -. ... - --- .--. / --.- ..- . ... - .. --- -. ... / .- -. -.. / .. ..-. / - .... . -.-- / - . .-.. .-.. / - .... . / --- - .... . .-. ... --..-- / .-- .... .- - / .-- --- ..- .-.. -.. / - .... . -.-- / -.. --- ..--.. / .-.. ..- -.-. .- ... / .-- --- ..- .-.. -.. / .--. .-. --- -... .- -... .-.. -.-- / -.. --- / - .... . / ... .- -- . / .- ... / . -- .. .-.. -.-- --..-- / .-- --- ..- .-.. -.. / -. .. -.-. -.- / -.-. .- .-. . ..--.. *

Both Emily and Chloe noticed the blinking, and Emily gestured Chloe to flick Raven on the ear to bring her back. Chloe did what Emily asked, and Raven was back in the room them.

" What? " Raven said, holding her ear where Chloe flicked her.

" Why do you have a Claw Scar on your neck? As someone who cares about you, I need to know what happened. " Emily said, holding her hands together.

" It's hard to explain, and if you are about to ask about one of them one, I might as well show you all of them. " Raven said with a sad expression.

Emily and Chloe were stunted by Raven's words, and she got off the bed and walked into one of the bathrooms and closed.

" What is she doing? " Chloe asked Emily, wondering what's going to happen.

Emily placed an unsure expression on her face and stated, thinking about what Raven said about all of them.

A few seconds later, Raven opened the door, not wearing her jacket or shirt, and bandages covering her chest still wearing both of her Gloves, relieving her the top of her covered in scratches and scars.

Both Emily and Chloe saw Raven and stood up, staring at her, Chloe placed her hands over her mouth in fear, and Emily did the exact same and removed her hands.

" What the hell? "
