Raven and Chung followed Twilight to her home so she can study Raven and help him control his anger,just in case Raven's Rage took over again ,Chung will have to use his potion against him,Chung hope's he doesn't have to use it to fight his friend.

Raven and Chung went inside Twilight's home,both of them just looked at the room,It looked like she lived in a library.

This is a bit odd,why did she live in a library? Raven thought.

"Well,we're here." Twilight said.Raven and Chung still stared at the room."Is there something wrong?" Twilight asked."Oh um,I never thought that you actually live here, at a library." Raven responded.Twilight raised an eyebrow."Is that a problem?" Twilight said."No it's just we never expected that you lived at a library, that's all." Chung said."Okay..." Twilight said.Twilight grabbed some books from the shelf."Hmmm." Twilight said, staring at the book. Twilight went page to page on the book , trying finding an answer.

"Raven." Twilight said.

"Yes?" Raven said.

"Were you always like this?" Twilight asked.

"What do you mean?" Raven responded.

"Were you always angry?" Twilight said.

"Um,well......." Raven said,trying to find an answer.

"Yes." Chung spoke.

Twilight turned to Chung."How would you know?" Twilight said.

"Because he's always been like this before he was at his first class change." Chung said.

"Class? You mean he had learn his moves?" Twilight said.

"Well not exactly,he wanted to choose the path of using his Nasod arm so he chose Over Taker and then he got his final class change which is him." Chung said pointing to Raven.

Twilight saw Chung's point,Raven looked like a tall muscular killer,Chung knew Raven's past but he rather not tell Twilight.Raven has been through a lot of pain then Chung.In Chung's view, he might look like a killer, but in the inside, he is a nice person, but in Twilight's view ,he's a creature who can snap at any minute.He went to great leader to horrifying killer.

Raven nodded his head in agreement.He knew that everything that Chung said is true.

"I'm guessing you had a rough past." Twilight said.

Raven nodded and looked at floor."I'm sorry." Twilight said.Raven looked up and finally spoke."It's okay,it's not your fault." Raven said."Well can you tell me what happened?" Twilight said."I can't it's just too.....painful." Raven said.Twilight looked at Raven with a concerned look."I see,it's okay if you don't want to tell your past.From the looks of it,you've been through......Hell." Raven said, finishing the sentence.

Twilight was just stood there,she didn't know what to respond back so she just moved on. "Anyway,have you lost any love one's?" Twilight said.Raven couldn't help but let out a tear.Twilight saw the tear drop off Raven's cheek,She felt bad for saying that."As you can see Twilight,he's been through a lot of crap." Chung said, putting his hand on Raven's shoulder. "I see,Chung.How long has this been going?" Twilight asked."Like for three years." Chung responded."I see,Chung can you come outside for minute?" Twilight said."Sure." Chung said.

Chung followed Twilight out the door."Chung ,it seems that Raven is suffering from the lost of his love one's." Twilight said.

"Is that the reason why Raven's Rage took over earlier?" Chung said.

"I'm not positive about that,all I know that he's suffering and he need's somepony to help him control his Rage.

Chung,was there anything else that happened with Raven's past or life?" Twilight said.

"Not that I know of." Chung said.

Twilight let out a heavy sigh, but then something came up in her head.Twilight gave Chung a big smile."What is it Twilight?" Chung said.

"I happen to know a certain zebra who can help Raven." Twilight said smiling.

"Well what are we waiting for? Let's go!" Chung said.

"Wait!" Twilight said.

"What?" Chung said.

"I insist you stay here,I want only me and Raven coming to her hut." Twilight said.

Chung let out a heavy sigh."I guess that's the best for him,all right,I'll stay." Chung said.

"Okay good,I'll get Raven and we'll be back in like ten or twenty minutes." Twilight said.

"Ok,be safe." Chung said.

"Don't worry,I will." Twilight said.

Twilight went inside her home and went to get Raven.

"Raven!" Twilight shouted.

"Yes?" Raven said.

"We're going to Everfree Forest." Twilight said.

"Wait,what if monsters try to hurt us?" Raven said.

"Don't worry,after what you did to the forest,they probably are too afraid to fight you." Twilight said.

"Seems reasonable enough,ok let's go!" Raven said.

Raven followed Twilight out of the house and went to Zecora's Hut which is in Everfree Forest.

                                                             Zecora's Hut

Zecora was busy making a potion in her hut when she suddenly heard a knock on her door,she went to answer it.Zecora open's the door.

"Hello Zecora!" Twilight said.

"Please do come in! So we can begin." Zecora said.

Twilight looked at Zecora with a confused face.

"Wait,you mean,you know why were here?" Twilight asked.

"I am like a mind reader, let's hope your friend isn't a bleeder." Zecora said, joking around with Twilight.

Twilight ignored Zecora's joking and moved on.

"Anyway,since you know what's going on,where do we start?" Twilight said.

"First I must look into his head,I hope I don't misread." Zecora said.

Zecora went up to him,waiting for a response.

"I guess you want me to tell you why I've been angry?" Raven said.

Zecora nodded her head.

"Well it started back a few years ago in Velder Kingdom,I was a commoner and I tried to work hard to become the Captain of the Crow Mercenary Knights.Some were supporting me and other's were jealous of me.But one day,I was framed and sentenced to prison,my friends,comrades and fiancée went to rescue me,but it didn't take long when they were all surrounded by Velder soldiers and slaughtered one by one."  Raven said.

Twilight let a tear,so did Zecora.

"Your story,it brings us to tears,is that why you were angry for all these years?" Zecora said.

"Yes,I was so furious." Raven said.

" So you had a will,is that why you had to kill?" Zecora said.Raven didn't give a response back.

"But was your arm always like that?" Twilight asked.

"No,but I was getting to that part,want me to continue?" Raven responded.

Zecora and Twilight nodded their heads.

"Anyway, just then, a Nasod figure appeared in front of me,offering a contract for rebirth and power,I would conquer Velder and have revenge on the ones who caused my suffering,I agreed, then blacked out.

I awoke in a Nasod capsule, with devices attached to various parts of my body.I had a prototype Nasod claw or arm, I became the leader of the Velder Rebellion and I blindly fight to destroy the kingdom I once protected.But then I met Elsword and his friends,they reminded me of my duty to protect the people I once loved.And that's when I decided to join Elsword and his friends to find the Missing El."  Raven said.

"What's the Missing El?" Twilight said.

"It's a large crystal." Raven said.

"Did you ever find it?" Twilight said.

"No." Raven said.

"Oh."  Twilight said,scratching her head.

Zecora went towards Raven."I can see why you have so much Rage,it's like an anger tiger in a cage." Zecora said.

"You could say that."  Raven said.

"You must control your anger or you'll put everpony in danger." Zecora said.

"Zecora's right,you have to control your rage,we can't help you control it, but you can." Twilight said.

Raven's eyes grew big. "You mean I have to control it,on my own?" Raven said.

"Yes, but we know you can do it." Twilight said.

Raven nodded his head."Okay,I'll try." Raven said.

"Good." Twilight said.

Twilight turned to Zecora."Thank you Zecora for helping us." Twilight said.

Zecora nodded her head.Twilight and Raven were ready to head out the door,Twilight went out,while Raven is talking to Zecora.

"Thank you Zecora,you've really helped me,I appreciate it." Raven said.

Zecora nodded her head,Raven was about to walk out of the hut but Zecora said one last thing to Raven before he went.

"Your mind needs to adjust,controlling your Rage is a must." Zecora said.

"I will,thanks." Raven said.Raven walked out of her hut,Twilight and Raven went back to Ponyville,Zecora let out a smile and went back to her duty's.

                                                       The Golden Oak Library

Chung was inside Twilight's home,he was pacing back and forth,Chung never seemed this impatient before.

Suddenly ,a purple Dragon came into the house,Chung got out his Silver Shooters and pointed them at the Dragon.

"Hey! Don't shoot!" The Dragon said.

"Who are you? Why are you here?" Chung said,questioning the Dragon.

"I'm Spike,Twilight's assistant,I live here."

Chung puts his Silver Shooters away."Sorry about that,Twilight never mentioned having a dragon here."

"It's okay,who are you?" Spike asked.

"My name is Chung."

"Are you one of Raven's friends?" Spike said.

"Yes,you know Raven?" Chung asked.

"Yes,Twilight was talking about him yesterday,but I never saw him face to face." Spike said.

Chung chuckled.

"What?" Spike said curiously.

"Nothing." Chung said.

Spike raised an eyebrow."So,what can you do?" Spike said.

"I can use my Silver Shooters and my Destroyer to do heavy damage." Chung said.

"You mean that giant cannon on your back?" Spike questioned.

"Yes." Chung said to the little green,purple dragon.

"Oh." Spike said.

"Now let me ask you a question." Chung said.

"What?" Spike said.

"Are you Twilight's pet?" Chung said.

"No! What makes you say that?" Spike said in a curious tone.

"It just came to my mind,sorry." Chung said.

"It's all right." Spike said.

Spike looked at Chung with a strange look on his face."What?" Chung said.

"It's just...........nopony wears that much armor on." Spike said.

"Trust me,where I come from,you have to wear armor." Chung said.

"Hey have you seen Twilight?" Spike said,changing the subject.

"They went to talk to some Zebra in Everfree Forest." Chung responded.

"Oh, you must be talking about Zecora." Spike said.

"I suppose so,Twilight never did say what her name was." Chung said.

"Do you know when they're coming back?" Spike said.

"They'll be back soon." Chung said.

Suddenly,someone knocked on the door."Speak of the devil." Chung said.Spike went to answer it.

"Hello Spike! Surprise to see you here early." Twilight said,entering her home.

"Very funny Twilight." Spike said.

Spike was about to close the door but was stopped by Raven's Nasod arm.

"AHH!" Spike shouted.

Twilight turned around"Don't worry Spike, it's just our friend Raven." Twilight said.

Raven went inside.Spike eye's grew big,Raven looked like a tall dangerous monster."Sorry little dragon." Raven said.

"My name is Spike."

"Sorry for scaring you Spike." Raven said.

"I wasn't scared." Spike said, mumbling to himself.

"So,how was the trip?" Chung asked Raven..

"It was great,Zecora told me to that I have to control my Rage." Raven said.

"Let's hope you can do that." Chung said,putting his hand on his shoulder.

"Don't worry,I feel better already." Raven said.

"Well Raven,since I trust that you can control yourself,you can go back to Fluttershy's home." Twilight said.

"Ok,thanks for the help Twilight." Raven said.

"No problem,Have fun at Fluttershy's!" Twilight shouted.

"I will, wait, what about you Chung?" Raven asked.

"I think I should stay here with Twilight,I trust you Raven, now go have fun." Chung said smiling.

Raven smiled back and headed out the door.

                                                           20 Minutes Later

When Raven finally got there ,he noticed some that Fluttershy's windows's were cracked,Raven was worried sick,he ran towards the door,it was locked and she wasn't answering.

"Fluttershy! Fluttershy are you in there?!" Raven shouted.

Raven kicked down the door,he saw that her house was a total mess,book's on floor,the couch was ripped and the table was broken in half.Raven couldn't believe his eyes.Raven went upstairs,her bed was ripped,and so were her pillow sheets.Raven didn't know who would do such a thing to a nice and cute creature.But judging that half of her stuff and furniture was clawed and ripped apart.Someone really wanted her gone or dead,Raven knew who was responsible for this attack.

"Gilda."
