Summary

The one where Raven and Azazel find each other before they both find Charles.

The boy who had been sleeping in Charles's bed was watching her with one pale blue eye, as the other was hidden beneath a tangle of bandages that covered a third of his head. His skin was bright red and in her shock at the sudden flood of light and his unexpected presence she thought, He's bloody all over, and it would only be much later, once she'd had a chance to control her panic, that she would realize that it was only his skin – that that was the way his skin was, just a funny color, the same as hers was. A tail lashed speculatively at his side.

The boy was frowning in a way that seemed very cold to Raven, and that scared her. It all scared her – the surprise of finding that she was not alone in the big house, the way he looked, that harsh frown – and she felt her disguise slipping away, the scales flipping over like a cascade of cold water, leaving her grown tinier and blue and she saw his uncovered eye widen, saw astonishment and then recognition in it, saw his lips part to say something, but by then she had turned and was running.
