Raven Chain - Some Weight on her Shoulders

Probably the last Raven one for this weekend. After all, there is another chain that's just as big.

~@~

Raven was returning from another rough solo mission. Crime had been bad lately and thus the Titans having been having to split up for missions. Raven was sent on another solo as they felt she was the best to go out on her own to handle robberies and abductions.

"Doesn't mean it doesn't get tough." Raven remarked, looking at her cape which was a bit shredded after some nut with a knife tried to stab her. Still, he'd missed her thankfully, though 3 crimes in a day was starting to wear her down.

Suddenly, from out of no where, Raven erupted into pain as something hot struck her back....

Suddenly, from out of no where, Raven erupted into pain as something hot struck her back. She couldn't see the beam of energy or its shooter but as quickly as it hit, it ended as Raven fell to the ground.

Raven lay there on her hands and knees, the pain in her back mild as it blew threw her clothing and singed her back. Sense when did villain attacks cut threw clothing!? Still, as she lay there, trying to catch her breath as green smoke came off her back, Raven felt... funny...

After letting the pain subside, Raven opened her eyes, only to find, to her horror, her hands had seemingly begun to turn to wood! What was this!?

"This isn't right!" Raven said, getting a worry look as the same feeling in her hands seemed to be moving up her legs as well...

Raven's plyte grew worse as her arms and feet bagan to morph as clothing was ether destroyed or covered up, Raven wasn't sure which, as the wood crawled with a creeking rustling noise up her body. To add to that, her feet and hands were taking weird shapes as they bent and moved.

"Am I... becoming furniture?" Raven muttered, trying to move and make the magic or matter tech from having an easy time but she wasn't having much luck. What was Raven becoming?

Raven wasn't going to give up just yet. With what strength they could muster, she got back up onto her feet and attempted to use her own powers to reverse the changes.

Focusing all she could, Raven could feel her wooden hands and feet begin to reform back into what they should look like, even if they were still wooden. That was a start, but was it enough?

Apparently not as Raven began to kneel on the ground. Her legs would no longer move though atleast she didn't seem to be losing her human shape this time.

Raven cringed as her arms were forced upward to the sky as some kind of matter was being gather above her head. It looked like clay. What was going on?

Raven cringed as the wood consumed her body till only her face and some strands of hair remained. She couldn't free herself...

Raven's body soon stood still as she could no longer move period, not even her face now locked in a wooden stair as she hefted the now stone slab above her head, never tiring or feeling pain but knowing she had no way to get out of this ether.

Raven would have screamed if she could...
