Just once..

I'm hoping just this one time Raven is able to save himself with his abilities without having to be rescued by that gangster viper. I know the onus of this story is Raven's continuous bad luck, but he has survived this long, so he must have some survival skills other than throwing his ass at people. I won't mind after escaping this situation he runs into Vetally again, I just want to see some other (non-sexual) kind of survival instincts from him.
