Infinity: Rising of the Soul Weavers

* Imagine Dragons - All Eyes *

***

ROOOAAARRRR!!!

Before Maria could finish her sentence or Kayla start her own, a loud roar deafened them as multiple types of skeletal beasts started to flood them like a mad ocean.

Even though Raven was still disoriented, the caffeine intake that\'s now rushing through her veins is doing its job, making her feel awake once more.

\'Kayla, we have a lot to talk about.\' Raven said to Kayla in her mind. \'I don\'t know what happened but I need to make sure you\'re all right. Give me a sec here please.\'

At that, Raven\'s figure flickered from the tree and reappeared on the ground near Camilla who was the closest to the attacking horde.

A faint ominous red flared in her eyes while her open palms were directed towards the mad monsters.

As if replying to a silent call, the ground opened in front of her as ghostly black tentacles appeared and wrapped around every single monster, swallowing them whole and pulling them into the depth of hell.

It all lasted less than a few seconds, making everyone question their sanity and whether what they\'ve just witnessed was pure imagination.

"There was about a hundred monsters, no?" Camilla asked, trying to understand the situation.

"I thought I saw about a hundred fifty... but yea something like that." Rain answer weakly.

"Oh..." Camilla was surprised, almost shocked, by the power the little Raven had just shown. Not that she couldn\'t have done it, heck she could destroyed a content in one go if given the time.

\'But that\'s the thing, the girl had one second to react and she just killed every single monster? what were they, C rankers? I\'m pretty sure I felt at least ten B rank monsters.\' she thought to herself in amazement.

\'That wasn\'t all but after her attack had stopped, nothing had remained. Absolutely nothing, not even a scratch on the ground! She\'s the ultimate assassin!\' Camilla thought as she remembered who Raven was.

"Thank you for saving me once more!" the silver girl said in her own language as a smile spread across her face, it was full with happiness and appreciation.

Of course she still had her chest uncovered so Raven just gestured at her own chest and looked down, red in embarrassment as well as fever.

Now that she wasn\'t feeling as confused and out of place, she could \'think\' once more. Up until this moment, she still had no idea how she drank that... \'caffeine\'.

It wasn\'t something she\'d do if she had her wits around. As a matter of fact, she almost doesn\'t remember anything past her transformation into the elf boy.

It\'s all just a jungle of blurry broken memories. Trying to remember anything would be like trying to reassemble a vase that\'s been turned into many little shards that got scattered everywhere.

Looking down at her bosoms, the girl tilted her head as if to question Raven, "you haven\'t drank enough though, please let-"

"No... No! It\'s alright don\'t worry about me, I\'m perfectly fine!" Raven said trying to keep her eyes on her feet to prevent her blood from rushing up to the corners of her brain.

"I really appreciate it though, it helped a little..." She would usually turn bright red at that, but she was already beaming like a fully bloomed rose.

She still remembers how she woke up to find herself staring at the girl\'s shiny silver eyes, and...

She just couldn\'t bring herself to believe that she\'s actually done what she\'s done.

Raven didn\'t want to remember any of the stuff she\'s done or said while in her dizzy state.

However, something that she could not remove out of her head was that she wasn\'t good with caffeine.

\'I need to go to the washroom!\' she thought as she bit her lower lip. \'But, how...?\' she instinctively glanced at Maya, and then at Maria.

That would be her first time as a girl and the thought added to her dizziness.

"Hey, Raven can you come with me for a second? I need to talk to you, err, in private." Maria said as she looked at the silver girl who just kept staring at her like a clueless infant.

Of course Maria had instantly understood that Raven needed to use the washroom, from her eyes and stance.

\'She still makes that same thing with her eyes whenever she needs to use the washroom.\' Maria had long learnt that whenever Draven suddenly shifts his eyes down at his feet, she should make an excuse and leave him be.

He\'d always take the opening and rush towards the bathroom. But now that Draven had become Raven, she needed \'guidance\' in that matters as her body was new to her.

\'And who\'s better at giving guidance to my own little daughter than myself, her dear mommy,\' she thought as a warm feeling spread across her heart.

"Uhm," Raven nodded slightly as she walked slowly towards her mother.

Seeing that, Maya walked in a fast pace towards the silver girl and handed her the baby so she could run after them. The girl took the baby and rushed after all three girls.

"Oi! I said in private, you lot leave us alone!" Maria yelled at them. Even though her tone was playful, her sapphire eyes weren\'t.

**gulp**

Both the silver girl and Maya stopped in their tracks, and swallowed loudly as they felt a shiver creeping down their spine.

\'Mom is too scary damn it!\'

\'crimson-purple girl...\'

Both girls had their own thoughts as they sat down defeated on the ground.

Once they were alone, Maria held Raven into her arms as she hugged her lightly. "I missed you so much," she said with tearful eyes and cracked voice.

"Even though we were so close, you felt so far beyond our reach. In every fight, you were the one to save us all. I\'m so sorry for being such a useless mo-"

"Stop, please mom," Raven said as she hugged her back relieving all of the pent up stress that\'s been clouding her mind and eyes.

"But do I take it you\'re not angry at me because of almost, you know, dying s couple of times?" Raven said trying to ease her mom\'s feelings.

"Angry? No, I was frightened..." The sincerity of her tone stabbed Raven in the heart multiple times in a row as tears appeared in her deep red eyes.

"But hey, I\'ll take my revenge hehe! Why do you think I brought you here?" Maria said with a sadistic smile in her face, turning Raven\'s tears to cold sweat.

For the next ten minutes, Maria had her fun as she explained to the rose in front of her about the human girl\'s body and how to perform multiple necessary tasks with it.

From using the washroom, to the monthly period and the such.

It was basically the small girly version of "son, it\'s about time we had that talk" and well, Maria had her fun teasing Raven.

Of course she couldn\'t extend it past ten minutes as she still needed to use the washroom.

"I\'m sorry your first time has to be in the woods, but here," Maria said with a sad expression as she gave Raven some pieces of baby wipes that she kept on her person as they were a good way to moisture the skin, and a hand sanitizer.

"I\'ll be waiting behind the tree, where I\'ll also keep watch, let me know if you need anything. Remember, take your time honey." she said with a smile that would usually cause some necks snap in order to watch her.

"Please," Raven said in a hushed voice and an embarrassed expression on her face, "I just need to... pee." all the while her eyes didn\'t leave her feet as she couldn\'t look Maria in the face.

But Maria didn\'t want her confident Raven to turn into this timid girl in front of her just because of a small change in her body.

"Listen here lil Raven," she said while cupping Raven\'s face with her hands, "I don\'t know what type of a f*cker the mayor was with you, but a b*tch like her can\'t be compared to a real mother,"

Raven was surprised as she heard Maria curse. Not that she doesn\'t, it\'s just really rare.

"Even though I\'m not your biological mother, I promise, I\'ll be there always by your side, teaching you and guiding you with every step you take, do you understand?"

"Uhm," Raven couldn\'t help but nod.

"Now, teaching my daughter about this stuff is only natural, please don\'t be intimidated, I need you to be my confidant and reliable little Raven, is that ok?"

"Yes, thank you... mommy" Raven said with a red face, only this time she succeeded in making Maria blush too.

"Now go before it\'s too late haha," she said as she pushed her towards a covered area, away from the group.
