"Beast Boy, for the last time, leave me alone!" shouted the dark haired preistess of Azarath.
"It's
that time of the month and you know it. I need to be alone and
meditate, but evertime I try to find any peace, you show up wanting me
to try some tofu or make me laugh. Well get this and get it good. I'm
not laughing", fumed Raven as she stalked off toward her door; her
stride less than confident.
"Man BB, maybe you should take it
easy around Rae. I mean, you don't know what she goes through during
those monthly cycles. I've read that it really takes alot out of a
person", explained Cyborg as Beast Boy joined Cyborg on the couch to
watch television. Beast Boy stared out the window at the bay, watching
the carefree seagulls flying overhead. As he looked into the water, he
could see the fish swimming around the dark blue water.
Beast
Boy decided that Cyborg was right. He did bug Raven alot of the time,
but it wasn't because he wanted to be a pest. Quite the opposite, he
very much wanted Raven to notice him. But she couldn't. Even after
explaining about Trigon and how dangerous it would be for her to fall
in love with anyone, he still couldn't believe that Raven was totally
unable to show affection for him. After all, he wasn't just anyone. No,
he was Beast Boy, and he never had trouble getting anyone's attention.
Of course, having green skin made it easier, but still he couldn't
understand why Raven constantly shot him down. Beast Boy started
napping as he thought back and reiminised about some of the other
people in Raven's life.
Well, first and foremost there was
Malchion. He seemed like Raven's knight in shining armor. He was
perfect for her in every sense of the word. Like her, he was magical.
He was also held captive by magic must the same way Raven was never
free because of Trigon.
The thought of Trigon made Beast Boy's blood
boil. The terrible atrocities that abomination did to Raven were just
awful beyon words. Beast Boy wasn't much on religion, but he swore that
there was no God out there that would allow something so despicable and
vile as Trigon to exist.
However, Beast Boy soon grew weary of these thoughts and drifted into a fitful sleep. His dreams twisted and turned, constantly rehasing the ways he and Raven were different. How Raven was always tidy and clean, while Beast Boy was a slob. How her room, while scary, was uncluttered, with everying in its place. How there were times at night when he would lie awake and here her crying out, as if in pain. And how the next day Raven would wash her bed sheets and blankets, not saying a word to anyone and skipping breakfast. He knew she was going through womanly things, but knew they were personal and for once, he didn't bother her about it.
Beast Boy soon began dreaming about what being a female would be like. His mind played with him in various women's clothes, trying on dresses and eyeshadow. At one point, he looked into a mirror and screamed. His skin had changed from green to a Starfire like shade of pink. Beast Boy was puzzled. He started wondering if his brain was trying to tell him something, but he couldn't put his finger on it. He looked at his hands and saw long, slender fingers with ruby red polish. They seemed to sparkle like the sun. At this point, Beast Boy told himself there was no way this could be real and that he would wake up soon. He stood up and started to walk away from the dressing table he was seated at when a figure approached. At first he couldn't tell who the person was becuase there was a black aura around them. But then she spoke.
"Beast Boy, wake up. Come on Gar, this is important. You must wake up." Slowly the voice grew louder and light seemed to seep in from somewhere. Beast Boy slowly sat up rubbing his head.
"Woah, dude what happened?" asked Beast Boy in a strangly high, feminine voice.
"Actually we were hoping you could tell us BB", said Robin as he helped Beast Boy sit up.
"You were still asleep on the couch when Cyborg went to bed, so he put you back in bed. Said you were mumbing something about dresses. When you didn't show up for breakfast this morning, I came to see if something was wrong. And, well, it looks like there is", explained Robin slowly.
Beast Boy looked into Robin's eyes and saw that the Boy Wonder seemed afriad about something.
"Well, what's wrong. I just have a frog in my throat or something", replied Beast Boy with the same strange voice.
Just then Raven walked into the room carrying a mirror. "Beast Boy, look in the mirror", said Raven coldy. Beast Boy looked at Raven and saw the same scared look.
"Ok guys, what's the big prank?", asked Beast Boy as he turned his head to look in the mirror. Beast Boy looked in the mirror and screamed.
"NO! NO! This is SO not happening. This is a dream. Please tell me this is a dream. No, not a dream a nightmare!", cried Beast Boy as looked at his friends hoping they would vanish and this was all the result of a bad tofu dog.
"I'm sorry Beast Boy, it looks like you've turned yourself into a girl", replied Robin.
Beast Boy looked at his hands and saw the same ruby red fingernails staring back at him. He promptly fainted.
