Ok to clear some things up Crag is 18 and Kathryn just turned 17, Raven is about 19. The bar Crag works at is owned by his dad, and thanks to some friends Crag got a fake ID and a fake certificate saying he's certified to serve beer since his dad needed the help. So I think that's it. Ohh and the flashback will be in the normal POV.

Chp. 6- Breaking Hearts, Breaking Minds.

Crag sighed for what seemed the hundredth time that day, business was slow as it always was during the afternoon. Only a few people were in there having a late lunch or whatever. `I wish Kathryn would come in, then I'd have someone to talk to at least.' He thought. "Hey Crag while your standing there doing nothing, go take out the trash." Mr. Shaman said, "Yes Sir." He replied and sighed again and went to do the task. He walked out the back door into the alley and threw the two bags into the dumpster. He sighed again and smiled as he thought about last night on the way home.

Flashback…

Crag and Kathryn were sitting in the car waiting for his parents to come back out with dinner for all of them. Kathryn snuggled closer to Crag sighing contentedly as Crag held her closer. "I love you." He whispered and gently caressed her cheek. She smiled, "I love you too." She whispered, "With all my heart." She added. Crag smiled and reached into his pocket. "Kathryn, I ummm…you know I would do anything for you right?" he asked. Kathryn looked up at him, "Yes a course I do. Why?" she asked. "And that I would do anything to protect you." He said, Kathryn sat up and looked up at him, "Yes I do, why, what's wrong?" she asked worriedly. He gently took her left hand and slipped something on it. When Kathryn looked down, she gasped.

Crag had slipped his high school on her ring finger. "Crag…I-I…" he placed a finger over her lips. "I love you Kathryn, with all my heart so much that it hurts when your not around. I want to spend my life with you and you alone." Kathryn's eyes filled with tears as he said this and a small smile graced her lips. "Now I may not be able to buy you a diamond ring or go to the fanciest restaurant to give a proper proposal but, I can you give you my unconditional love." He smiled. Kathryn shook her head smiling, "I don't care about any of that. All I care about is you." She said. "So is your answ-oomph" Kathryn pulled him down into a soft loving kiss. When they broke apart, Kathryn was still smiling gently. "Take that as a yes Mr. Crag Shaman." She said. He slipped his arms around her waist, "Indeed I will, the soon to be Mrs. Kathryn Shaman." They snuggled together again as Crag's parents came out of the restaurant.

End Flashback…

Crag smiled at the memory. It was official Kathryn was his fiancé now, and no one, not even Raven, could change that. "Crag, we need to talk!" a familiar voice said. He turned around shocked then smiled as his fiancé stood there. "Hey Katy I was-" he began. "I didn't come here to make conversation!" she snapped. Crag was taken aback at Kathryn's harsh response. "I merely came to tell you I'm leaving." She said, "Ok for how long?" he asked. "Forever, I'm never coming back." Kathryn said. Crag opened his mouth, but then closed it not knowing what to say. "Oh come on, you thought I loved? Honestly, I never have liked you! Raven and me had been planning on sending my dad to jail for years. I just needed someone with money to get me an attorney for when he finally cracked!" she said. "But when we meet up with Raven-" he was interrupted, "It's called acting! How else could I have made you fall in love with me, when I'm really in love with Raven? Your more thick headed than I thought!" Kathryn said.

"Fine you want to be with that freak go ahead just give me back my ring!" he hissed, "Gladly." Kathryn said reaching into her pocket pulling out the round metal, then tossed it to him. He caught it easily. "Just answer me this, why'd you accept when you don't even love me?" he asked, "Acting Crag, acting. Well I `d sat it's been a blast but, it hasn't" Kathryn said. Crag narrowed his eyes and stormed into the bar slamming the door. "Yes, very good." A voice said from the shadows. The girl smiled at Raven and pulled at her blonde hair pulling it off allowing long black hair to fall to her waist. She cleared her throat and took out blue colored contacts to reveal hazel eyes. "Thanks, glad that's done but people are right…blondes do have more fun." She said and pulled out a walkie-talkie, "Phase one complete is phase 2 underway?" a crackle came from the other end, "Yes, she's on her way now. Will call with directions when she leaves over and out!" and with that the line went dead. Raven smirked, "Well then lets go Sara." He said and the two disappeared into the shadows of the alley, leaving it quiet and empty.

*************************************

I walked down the street looking around for the building I was searching for. `Damn were the hell is this place?' I thought `I hope I'm reading this wrong' I stopped in front of a run down one-story building. `Yep this is the right place' I thought going up to the door. I walked in coughed as thick smoke surrounded me. "You all right?" someone asked me, "Yeah it just surprised me. Oh would you happen to know where I could find my friend, Crag, I was suppose to meet him here." I said, the guy smiled and it made me feel uneasy, "Yeah he's been waiting for ya. Come this was." He said as he led me through a crowded room. I felt self-conscious as eyes followed me, a few people walked up to me but backed away with wide eyes, as if they were scared. `That's weird' I thought.

I followed the man down a back hallway, and walked into one of the many rooms. It was dimly lit and I could barley make out the faces of the people in there. He led me over to a couch and motioned for me to stop, he went over to the person and whispered something. He came back over and told me to stay right there, then yelled for everyone to get out of the room. When the door shut the man on the couch stood up, "About time you got here!" a harsh familiar voice hissed. "Crag? Is that you?" I asked, "Who the hell do you think it is?" he snapped back. My eyes widened, "Hey there's no reason to get snappy!" I yelled back, "Oh will you just shut-up? Honestly you are so annoying!" he said.

My mouth dropped open `what the hell is wrong with him?' I thought, "Lets just get to the point why you're here! I want you gone!" he said, "Gone from here, gone from my house, gone from my life!" he hissed. I shook my head, "No y-you don't mean that." I said holding back a sob. "Yes I do, I realized I didn't love you after I proposed. I was getting lust and love confused. I don't love you I never did love you so I want you out and gown from my life permanently!" he said. I held back tears `no I must be dreaming I must be!' I thought. He held out his hand, "I want my ring back." He said, I narrowed my eyes to cover my hurt. I pulled off the ring he gave me and threw it at him. "Fine, I'll be by to pick up my stuff later. Have it your way I'll be gone before night!" with that said I ran out crying. Crag stood there smiling taking off the blonde wig showing brown hair. His blue eyes showing no emotion. He took a walkie-talkie from his pocket, "Raven…yeah she left…no she didn't notice…right" he smirked and walked out the door.

*************************************

I ran down the street tears falling freely. `Damn you Crag, I hate you!' I thought, I stopped on the bridge that crossed over the creek. `I was lost before I met you' I put a foot on the concrete rail `I found myself, had a reason to live when I found you,' I hoisted myself up `you're the reason I stood up to my dad!' I stepped closer to the edge `the reason I had to live to the next day, now your gone what else is there?' I thought I was dangerously close to the edge one-step forward I would be washed away in the fast moving water, one-step back meant life. `Dear god,' I began to pray `if I'm supposed to live please let someone save me. If not please let me die.' I closed my eyes, before I could move a pair of arms wrapped around my waist and pulled me back into something hard. I turned my body and clung to chest that I buried my face in and cried. The person didn't say anything, they waited patiently rubbing my back saying soothing words.

When I stopped crying I looked up at my savior, I didn't try to run, or back away. I smiled a sad smile, "Thank you for saving me......Raven."
