Look back in Anger

Keeping a low profile, on the face of it, sounds like quite a difficult task. Especially in a big place such as New York. It also makes it more difficult being a half Azerathian-half demonic gods daughter. Yeah, that makes it hard. Not being able to feel or express any emotion or else it could split the world into also makes this whole keeping a low profile thing very hard. I have to meditate everyday and remain completely neutral to anything. Should I get upset or angry, the very fabric of reality will start to break and ultimately bring around the apocolypse. yeah.....awesome.

The only place that seems to be 'alright' and I use that term loosely, is an area called Bushwick. It's relatively near New York City. It's also run down, dirty, falling apart and a ruin. The place where I live, is a small flat looking out over some barren wasteland spray painted with graffiti. It's hardly charming but it it's depressing enough as not to worry about about getting happy or joyous.





So, the daily meditating, keeping emotion under control and the depressing local area all contribute to the reason I've managed to keep under cover and out of sight of any sort of government organisations. Now a days people or other species with inhuman abilities is not such a rare thing anymore. SHEILD being the biggest organisation to watch out for. I'd rather keep off their radar. Ever since the start of the Avengers a few years ago theyve been near enough scavenging the planet to find anyone they can. I'd rather remain independent and somewhat rouge. It gives me an edge I like to think. So, I've told you all this apart from my actual name. The only name I've ever known has been Raven. Since I was cast out from Azerath to save it burning Ive been living in earth. I will say the naïve and somewhat brain dead people that inhabit earth make an interesting change of pace to the huge mobs that used to hunt me down on Azerath baying for my blood. They were not nice people back there. In fact it's down to them I can't feel any sort of emotion at all. They removed all crude emotion so I wouldn't destroy the dimension when I was a child. I feel permanent pain but, having your soul ripped to shreds and having barriers put up in your mind to try and maintain some form of control in there, will do that to you.





And back to earth. So now I'm hoping you can understand my predicament. I'm trying my best to go unnoticed by everyone, I have no attachment or relationship with anyone here, I'm trying not to tear the earth in two but yet, there seem to be some people that can't wait to flaunt their "I'm better than you" power. Yes, I'm referencing that twat Tony Stark here or 'Iron Man'. That whole conference he did really fucked it up for the rest of us. The whole "Truth is, I am Iron Man" and then he sets up the Avengers? Prick. Now SHEILD have agents practically on every street looking for people, although strictly speaking I'm more a demonic goddess, like me and hoping to bring us in to fashion us into soldiers to protect the earth. I've already been modified into a soldier once, to protect Azerath before they decided I was too dangerous, and I will not have some half life, pathetic, snivelling, grovelling, lowly species tell me to protect them. Here have no idea the damage I can cause. I could wipe out their entire race before they even knew what was going on. So now, you have a brief outline and explanation of who I am, what I can do and the position I find myself in.

Notes

Hi, so I've taken to writing Avengers stories now. I've written others before but this is my first Acengers one. Like I've said, I think, this will be a mild DC crossover but by that I only mean Raven from the Teen Titans ,bc she's my favourite ever superhero closely followed Hawkeye and then Thor, and there will also be a character based on Starfire which will also feature my friend Keren seen as she likes being written into my stories. Anyway that is the extent of the DC-ness. Thank you.
