[glow=DarkGreen,20,3000]It's been ages since Raven last visited his home town of York. Things have changed, new buildings, new everyhting. But one thing remained the same, McKently Castle, located near the Moors. The palace was surronded by mystery and still stood to this day, after being passed down to others in the McKently family, with a few add ons and tear downs. Locals told of the history behind McKently Castle. Of how a thirteen year old boy named Crispin James McKently, this always caused Raven to smirk whenever someone mentioned his name...it made him feel glad that his name was not lost to history, went crazy one night in the summer of 1014 and killed his Mother, Father, and younger sister before locals found him "Dead" in the gardens of the castle. It has since been passed to others of the McKently clan, and the room where the murders took place...demolished. Locals believe the palace to be haunted by the whole family, including Crispin. THAT always made him fight back laughter. Raven sighed as he neared the palace and walked past, glancing over at his old, much changed, home before walking to York Minster Abbey. He enters the Abbey and walks through it and towards the Cemetary in back, stopping near four graves. His sister, Mum & Dads, and his. "Oh Elesabeth. I am so sorry for what I have done. I know Mum & Dad will never forgive me but..." Raven stops, having overheard some noise behind him. "Tell me who's there, and you might not get hurt." He warns, not turning around.[/glow]

"My name is Missy, and i would prefer not getting hurt." She said in a light tone. "I didn't mean to interrupt or anything, so please...continue."

[glow=DarkGreen,20,3000]Raven sighs and stands up, his black hair covering his eyes breifly. "I won't hurt you. I just thought you where a hunter or slayer." He says kindly. "And...I've said the same thing tons of times before. I was going to say 'I know Mum & Dad will never forgive me but you will. You where never mean.' my family owned that palace down the street." He says with another sigh, a tear rolling gently down his cheeks. Every day & night he thought about that place. He dreamed for years to head back & visit and now...he regretted it, to many memories. He sighs and looks back at the Graves. "Mine's right next to Elesabeths, right over..."He points to it. "there." He says to her. "I'm Raven by the way. Would you like to see my old palace?" He kindly asks her, wiping his tear.[/glow]

"Sure" Missy said quietly. She looked down at the graves that Raven had just pointed out. "I'm sure that at least she forgives you, even if your parents don't...."

[glow=DarkGreen,20,3000]Raven smiles. "She would be one to forgive even the most harsh person." He says with another smile as he opens the door to York Minster Abbey and waits for Missy. "It's weird, so much has changed since I last been here. And yet, so much has not. My rooms on the top floor of the castle in the tower. Very cool room." He says with a smile as his voice echos throughout the abbey.[/glow]

Missy smiles and follows him up to the castle. "It's really nice. And a lot bigger than my house...."

[glow=DarkGreen,20,3000]Raven exits the abbey and turns left once he walks down the stairs, heading straight to his castle. "Thanks. It has loads of secret entrances & exits, hidden rooms, rubbish like that." He says with a smile. [/glow]

Missy smiled. "Why is that rubbish? I love things like that, mysterious. I love the unknown."

[glow=DarkGreen,20,3000]Raven shrugs. "It's not that I don't like it or anything, I just think it's Rubbish because it's real easy to get lost." He said as they enter the gate leading to the castle.[/glow]

[glow=DarkGreen,20,3000]Raven smiled as they neared the door to the palace. "It has been years since I was here. I wonder what has changed?" He asked, removing a key from his pocket, which he uses to unlock the door. "And I used to get lost for hours, simply for fun at times, exploring the hidden rooms." He said as the door creeked open. Raven enters first and grabs a candle from the shelf and a candle holder, unaware the castle had electricity. He lights the candle and smiled, spotting the portrait of himself wearing old style clothing. "I hated that blue shirt, and the ruffled collar. Those pants where uncomftorable and to bloody tight. I hated having to stand there, arm resting on that chair. And my hair made me look like a twat. One thing I didn't like was standing there for all that time, hours on end in this room, while he painted me." He said with a sigh as he walked even deeper into the entrance hall, turning and walking into the family room. "I guess this is what you'd call a Living Room. We'd stay in here, relaxing. The murders took place over near the Kitchen behind that door. The servants quarters we called it. They tore it down years ago. Upstairs is my parents room, and a few spare rooms. Mine was in the tower where those stairs are." He said proudly as he led her on the tour. [/glow]

Missy looked around in awe. She felt strange as he pointed out where the murders took place.
