Regret flickered across Raven's face. "I do act upon my feelings too swiftly sometimes," she admitted. Too often.

"But I am trying to be better about it," she said. "Right now my every instinct is to flee from my friends, and go far far away to protect them. I have done that before in the past. I fled Azarath to protect it, though that was in vain. And when I felt my father's power reaching out for me, I tried to leave Fandom out of fear of what I would do."

What Jono had said about her always running away still stung, though she knew it was true, even though the words were born of an unnatural anger. "I want to run now, but I have not," she said. "The dreams I have been having now are so dark and terrifying. I cannot allow them to come true."

Spending so many weeks as her evil future self had shattered her confidence in herself, that she could control the dark side of her. The future seemed to hold nothing but blood and death now.
