Well, I've done it! I have started another (supposedly) long fanfiction story:p
And this time it is featuring the two lovely females of the Teen Titans: Raven and Starfire (Koriand'r for those who have read the comics!)
This has actually been sitting in my Notebook for some time so I'm a little further along than most of my other stories…I guess-
Needless to say, I hope you all enjoy this little story that will have elements from the cartoon and comic.
Disclaimer: TITANS GO!! …come on guys…please…(dolls face plant and fall over)…damn! I don't really own the Teen Titans…so leave me alone!
ON WITH THE STORY
"Mumbo Jumbo!"
Millions of birds suddenly flew out of the black top hat and attacked the boy in front of the magician. Yellow cape swirling, the boy in green and red cartwheeled out of the way only to have to dodge again when the birds turned around.
Quickly, the leader of the Teen Titans, Robin (who else would wear a traffic light), let loose a barrage of smoke grenades confusing the avians and causing them to fly away.
As Robin was taking care of the birds, his teammates had their own opponents to face off with.
Green and blue energy blasts were being released by Starfire and Cyborg against snaking vines and a giant lion respectively. Cinnabar red hair whipped and snapped as the golden orange Tameranean ducked and dodged the strangling vines.
Below her, Cyborg grappled with the huge lion. Metallic arms shined as the young African American lifted up and threw the lion towards the vines that had almost caught his flying teammate.
No longer occupied, both teen turned towards their leader and he signaled them to go after Mumbo, who was currently facing off with the dark mystic and green changeling of the team.
SOME TIME LATER
"Uhh? So…what are we supposed to do now!?"
Beast Boy threw his hands up into the air, confused and baffled by the situation the Titans now faced.
Said situation gurgled happily and wriggled around in the only other female's arms. Bright emerald green eyes looked down into pure amethyst and smiled.
"I believe we should go back to the Tower because, as Mumbo has said, this will reverse itself if given time."
With that, Starfire gently rose into the air, still cradling a babyfied Raven close to herself, and started towards home, leaving the boys to do as they wished.
The half metal boy simply stretched and yawned.
"Well, seems Star has the right idea y'all. Not much we can do now except wait."
Cyborg ambled over to his own 'baby' and climbed in, starting the engine. Beast Boy shrugged and followed his pal into the car; too tired to fly home after the battle with Mumbo Jumbo.
"You coming Robin?"
Tearing his eyes from the night sky and the slowly retreating figure in the sky, Robin also headed to the T-Car.
"Yeah. I'm coming."
Once they were all strapped in, Cyborg roared down the bay side street heading towards the giant T-Tower on the island in the middle of the bay, heading home.
Floating softly through the air on the way to their home, Starfire took the chance to speak to Raven.
"I do not know if you can understand me right now Raven but I just want you to know that there is no need to be worried or frightened about your present state. We will take care of you until this wears off or until you are old enough to counter this spell yourself."
The Tameranean Princess smiled gently into the solemn face of her friend receiving a small grin in return. But the grin faded quickly as baby Raven began to shiver from the cool air over the ocean.
Screwing up her face in discomfort, the young Azarathean began to cry softly but soon ceased as Starfire wrapped her tighter in her cloak and held her closer to her warmth, humming a lullaby quietly.
"Hush little Raven. It's going to be alright."
Raven calmed down being lulled to sleep by the warmth of another and the vibrations she felt from her caretaker's humming. However, it was still far too cold for such a small being with only a cloak to cover her small frame.
Starfire noticed the shiver was still present and was worried because she knew if she flew faster Raven would get even colder and could possibly become sick. That was something the Star child did not want to happen, so she had to think fast for another way to get Raven warmer.
Raven sensed Koriand'r's troubled thoughts through her empathic abilities and even though she was pretty much asleep, the now little sorceress felt a need to comfort her best friend.
"Sta-bots."
Frowning sleepily at how her words didn't come out right, Raven tried again.
"Sta-bolts warm."
Kori had stopped right over the water about five and a half miles from Titan's Tower when Raven first spoke, fascinated that even so young, her beloved friend could speak.
Even if it wasn't quite perfect.
"Raven…are you sure?"
Deep violet eyes pierced all encompassing emerald as Raven nodded seriously.
"Twy."
Raven scowled at how her words wouldn't come out right. Starfire giggled silently, not wanting to anger Raven and nodded. Still suspended above the smooth motions of the bay waters holding Raven securely, Koriand'r closed her eyes and concentrated on her power.
Using the meditative techniques she learned from her teammate, Starfire brought that fiery warmth to the surface slowly and focused it not into her hands or eyes, but throughout her entire body, keeping it at a low heat so Raven wouldn't be burned. Finally opening her now glowing green eyes, Koriand'r looked down at Raven and smiled ever so happily at what she saw there.
The new burst of constant warmth had chased away the lingering cold that had shrouded the two and put Raven right to sleep nestled in the Tamaranean's slightly glowing arms, against an ample chest. A very faint, content smile graced the sleeping girl's features and Starfire was struck again with the knowledge that a smiling Raven is a very beautiful one…or at least cute in this case.
Starfire resumed the flight home, once again humming, and didn't cease even after she had landed on the roof. With the now fast asleep mage snuggled tight to her, Koriand'r opened the door that led inside while still glowing an eerie green and didn't bother turning on the hall lights since her power illuminated just enough to see the dancing shadows follow along the wall.
As the two females of this Titan group neared the door that connected to the common room/living room, the male voices from inside grew louder and Starfire hesitated to enter but did, risking the chance that Raven might be awakened.
And awakened she was!
The moment before the door swooshed open, a hyper green monkey was already scrambling its way across the room to greet the females and to get a better look at Baby Raven.
Starfire had to admit that it wasn't all Beast Boy's fault for waking a sleeping Raven because Cyborg and Robin both came over right on BB's tail; Cyborg to exclaim over how small Raven's gotten and Robin to discuss the battle and future plans now that Raven is basically out of commission.
Starfire didn't know what really woke Raven up first: the noise, the sudden movement around her, or the tenseness of Star's own body against Raven's; but Star did know that having two out of the three boys suddenly snatch her from her warm and soothing spot within Star's arms only to be passed around non-stop really…upset Raven.
Violet eyes narrowed in anger and annoyance even as they began to tear up and her face scrunched up as she cried out loudly.
Cyborg and Beast Boy were startled and tried to get Baby Raven to stop crying by making goofy faces at her and rocking her. Needless to say, that didn't really work…in fact, it only made things worse.
Raven had had ENOUGH! She realized that in her baby state she still had her teenage mind but her tiny body and crystal clear emotions made her realize that:
1.She had little to no control over her powers
and
2.She wanted to be with Koriand'r and she meant NOW!!
With a very loud wail, Raven's powers were released from her little body, which glowed white outlined in black like it does when she used her powers as a teenager. Seemingly blind white eyes locked onto the two offenders as shadows started to engulf all three of them.
Cyborg and Beast Boy were terrified.
"RAVEN!! Please don't! I want to LIVE!!"
"Come on Rae! We didn't mean any harm!"
A small but very demonic smirk was their answer as the cloaked bundle floated itself away from the two boys. A sudden flash of light and the boys were nowhere to be seen. Awestruck (and a tiny bit scared) Robin and Starfire watched.
When only Raven was left, Starfire moved towards the mini-sorceress and was met half-way by Raven who looked at her with her normal violet eyes even as the last of her power faded from her body.
Raven had seen Koriand'r walk towards her and decided she wanted to be back in those warms arms now, so she floated over to the golden orange skinned alien holding out her tiny baby arms and smiled slightly in happiness that soon she would be back in that nice and soothingly warm embrace.
Raven wasn't aware that she was making little happy gurgles as Starfire smilingly reached out and enfolded Raven once more in her arms, but Kori and Robin noticed, eliciting a very ecstatic smile from one and a puzzled frown from the other.
Unaware of Robin's presence, Koriand'r giggled, making Raven do so as well when Star nuzzled against Raven's face and neck, blowing little bursts of air to tickle the small mage. Unlike Beast Boy's and Cyborg's slightly rougher handling, Koriand'r gently rewrapped Rae in her cloak while continuing to keep her in a happy mood.
A happy mood which increased to outright giggling when the green changeling and half metal boy came in sopping wet and smelling like dead fish.
Beast Boy threw a disgruntled look at the laughing baby.
"Yeah, yeah. Real funny Raven."
With that he morphed into a dog and shook himself, getting Cyborg even more wet.
"Yo! Grass Stain! Quit it! Thanks to Rae, I'm already gettin' rusty! I don't need to short circuit!"
Then the one brown eye and unblinking red eye focused on the laughing baby in Star's arms.
"Man, Rae! When you grow back up you so owe me!"
Raven finally quit laughing and said goodnight to the two waterlogged boys.
"Night Cy…Night BB."
Those baby words had the magical effect of putting smiles back on the boys' faces and they bid Raven a goodnight as they went off to get cleaned up for bed.
"Aww, Goodnight Raven."
"Night Rae. Night y'all."
But before the boys could reach the door that led to their rooms, Robin called them back for a moment.
"Wait guys! Where is Raven going to sleep? We can't put her in her room when she's this young."
"Kowi."
The quiet voice of the baby was heard through the silence as everyone tried to think of the best solution.
"What Raven?"
Gazing out at everyone with deep purple eyes, Raven tried to elaborate as best she could given how limited her ability to form words now was.
"Rwae goh with Korwi."
Koriand'r looked down at Raven.
"Are you sure Raven?"
Locking eyes with the Princess, Raven nodded emphatically.
"Yes."
Starfire smiled and turned her gaze back up at the boys.
"I believe that this is settled. Goodnight everyone."
Turning to the left, Starfire and Raven went through the sliding door that led to their rooms leaving the boys to do as they wished.
