( chapter one of my teen titans story :: darkstorm :: )
Raven sat on the chair quietly , normaly by this time she had started speaking .
( oh i hadnt seen you here dear reader im sorry if your confused . this is my teen titans story involving raven , and an oc by the name of ultimor . its already started so enjoy the show )
ultimors somewhat somber tone always seemed to make her happy but he wasn't speaking either . he was too busy shelving books at the moment " damn .. i am missing the last book then i can sit with you " . raven looked around and saw a small black book with a strange insignia " here it is .. didn't know you had a book on the lost arts " . he turned around to see her bending over to pick it up , her tight body suit fitting to the contours of her body . he normaly wasn't the type to admire someone as beauty was shallow and faded with time , he thought quietly " if she wasn't my closest and only friend .. " . she stood back up and tossed him the book " you know i can read minds right " . he winced and placed the book in his pocket " sorry my minds in a place i would rather not have it " . raven nodded and sat down " so is mine , i think i might be in love .. bleh " . ultimor sat down as well " so whos the sorry son of a bitch " , raven loved the way he put that . he knew that raven was rarley sunshine and cheer that whoever she was in love with would have a hellova time getting her to open up . raven muttered " i dont know him , hes been assisting the titans for weeks now and i must say hes got me kinda choked up " . the somewhat dark man let out a groan " ugh that's one ive never worked with myself , ive found love to be a weak emotion " . raven gave a nod of agreement " i have as well but with my emotions more active i cant help it , im glad you came into my life to help me sort things out " . he almost blushed " raven im just a simple shopkeeper and a fellow darkened soul , the day you came into my shop may be the first time in 10 years ive smiled " . raven was now blushing her com unit went off " hate to break up this little lovefest but i gotta fly " . ultimor made a gesture " you knoweth where the door is , save the day well my friend " .
she flew from the shop quickly to the scene of the titans fighting cinderblock . she dropped to the ground and spoke quietly " what did i miss " . robin said angrily " never mind that .. titans go " , the group launced their attack but to no avail they were getting stomped . beast boy spoke quietly " when did he get good " , cy replied with " dunno dont care we are gonna need some backup " . raven kipped up and thought " he usually appears when im in danger " . she faced the block headed creature and somberly said " gimme your best shot " . the hard stone creature launched a punch as raven braced for a flight to the next town . the contact never came , she opened her eyes to see him . the man who had saved the titans many times now , but mostly for her . the masked soul muttered " geez are you tryin to get yourself killed " then launched the block headed monster into the ground knocking him silly . he faced the gothic young woman and tilted his head " soooo are you doin anything Friday night " . the girl blushed and spoke quietly " ok romeo chill " , he let out a scream and fell to his knees " ahhhh gah " . raven looked morbidly afraid at a creature in the distance " what the " . the creature had fire red hair , stood taller than most , and had smoke flowing off its hand . its raspy voice spoke " darkstorm .. at last i find you " , the warrior stood up his now exposed back to raven and removed his shirt . a large marking covered his back , navadrian text with the salvia kou . this was no regular human with powers , he was navadrian born . the boy looked at the flare demon and made sevral handsigns " uwn ete twas fenedio quedo sangalo " . a large spell circle entrapped the fire creature . the boy fell over " damnit .. cant breathe " , he placed his cape over the back of his head and popped his mask off throwing it . the voice from under the cape spoke quietly " young woman .. i believe you know the rest of this spell correct " . raven nodded and made one hand sign " keldalouk selvio torian " .
the demon vanished into a void in the ground . raven knelt beside the young man who was now passed out " i want to see .. who you are " . the other titans protested especially robin who wore a mask himself " raven dont , he doesn't want us to know who he really is or he wouldn't wear that mask " . raven sighed and sat down beside him " your right robin .. im sorry its just i wanted to see him " . a voice spoke " but you already have seen me " , she fell back alittle " ahh your awake " . the boy stood up with his cape draped over his face and head " bird boy grab my mask for me please " . robin did as told tossing it to him , the boy handed the mask to raven " i wont be needing this anymore .. why dont you keep it " . he threw the cape down from his face and head and looked at her " look familiar " . ravens jaw dropped " no .. " , the boys somewhat pale face glistened in the sunlight , his blue hair and eyes followed suit . she was sprawled out on the ground " so all this time " , he nodded " yea im sorry for not telling you sooner " . she sat up again " that's not much of a big deal .. i knew there was something about you i had seen before " . the young man nodded " yes but this is the only secret ive ever kept rest assured " . raven sighed " ok ultimor i trust you and you know that " , the titans looked puzzled trust was hard to come by with raven . if she trusted him then by proxy they should be able to , raven gave him a hug then realized she just gave him a hug and pulled away blushing as red as a beet " um sorry just got caught up in the moment " . the dark heart of ultimor warmed some as he whispered " tis ok milady .. my offer still stands for Friday night tho " . raven spoke just as quietly " sounds like whats the word .. fun " , ultimor helped her to her feet and their hands met for some time . then their eyes were the next to meet , and it wasn't all that akward till ultimor moved his hands and blushed " . beastboy chimed in in song " ravens got a boyfriend ravens got a boy... " , he felt a boot in his stomach " you best know your roll son " . beast boy looked up " dude .. your fast " , the boy walked away quietly " so what " .
raven quietly walked by his side " thanks .. ive always wanted to kick the crap outta him " . the boy nodded " for some time after terra dissapeared you wanted to kiss the crap outta him if i remember correctly " . raven blushed " he was alone as was i " , the boys somber tone continued on " hey im guessing that that was before i knew you " . raven nodded and awnsered " yea it was , i guess im really happy to see that your just like us " . ultimor looked serious " was that an invite of sorts " , raven blushed " you have powers and your a hero worthy of trust .. i would love to see you a titan " . ultimor was now blushing " as long as i dont have to wear tights .. skin tight plus goth does not make a pleasant sight " . raven bapped him in the back of the head " im a goth and my outfit is kinda revealing ... hippocrite " . ultimor laughed " your a lot better looking than me " then he realised he had just focused on looks and sighed " yea you win i guess im distracted " . raven looked at him thinking " poor thing guess i still got him pegged hehe " .
- about a week later -
ultimor was settled into a somewhat small room , he didn't like large rooms for some reason . a confined dark space was plenty for him , and dark it was . his new room rivaled ravens in dark red and black paint , a full bed with black covers , a dark dresser with a small tv , a radio/cd player with a large cd collection , and of course various and sundry books . he had left his bookshop in the care of a close friend who was a darkened soul . he looked around and reached in his pocket placing a book on the dresser " im just glad raven didn't read this heh " . he quietly placed a sign on the door that read , chamber of darkness .. knock first .. if no awnser keep knocking im reloading .
he quietly walked over to ravens room and knocked , the door slightly opened " what is it beast .. oh hey ultimor " . ultimor bowed and smiled " may i come in or are you like me that way with the nobody comes in my room " . raven almost laughed " for you ill make an exception " , she slid open the door alittle as he scooted in and then closed it behind them . he took a quick look around " now this is dreadful .. love it " . raven blushed alittle " glad you like it , may i ask why you came over " . he muttered " just wanted to see how you roll kinda , but since im here whatta ya say we do alittle studying " . raven nodded " i would like that .. very much so " they sat together with various spellbooks looking at eachother , studying was about to become the last thing on their minds
