"Hey!" my sister screamed. "You are not leaving this house until you dump the dirty water on those hobos outside!"
I live in a two-story house, not big, but not small either. I was on my way out the door when my sister saw the water still in the bucket by the window. We have it there in case another beggar tries to get into our house by window.
"No. That's rude." Although I snicker a little at the thought of a dirty old beggar being covered in water in this freezing cold weather. I can't help it, I'm a demon spawn. My name is Leonika. I'm sure you have all heard of my sister, Raven. She's part of the Teen Titans. Robin, Beast Boy, Starfire, Beast Boy, Cyborg, Beast Boy, my sister, and Beast Boy. Oh, and there's also Beast Boy. Wait, I already said that. Sorry, I kind of like him.
I love everything about him! He's hilarious, plays video games, my favorite color is green, tofu is AMAZING by the way, he's messy, which is like, totally adorable, AND- he cares about the environment! GO VEGETARIANS! Anyway, most of those are the reasons Raven HATES him. She thinks he's annoying! He can get a little clingy to her, but, that's fine. She just has to learn to deal with it. Also, he does talk to her a lot, and sits by her door for hours complaining how he never gets to see her, and jumps around and gets really excited when he does see her, and- WAIT! Oh, no! He's IN LOVE WITH HER!
How is this possible! I don't know how or why he would like HER! I'm the one who does everything with him, and hangs out with him, and actually DESERVES him. UGH! I can't believe this…
Well, anyway, that's what I was thinking about when my sister and I had this argument. After she tried to say something else, I had already started through the portal I created. When I closed it on the other side, I was at the window of the Teen Titans Tower in Miami, Florida.
"Hey! Leonika! What up?" Beast Boy greeted me from inside the tower. I ignored him as I blasted through the wall and flew straight to Raven's room. As I searched for her hand mirror, I heard BB at the door.
"Um, Leonika? Not such a warm greeting back there. What's wrong?"
"Shut up and go away!" I yelled, standing with my nose close to the door.
Silence. I heard footsteps walking toward the East Wing, toward BB's room. I sighed and flopped on Rae's bed, hoping that a little lie-down would help me sort out my thoughts.
Why did I do all that instead of talking to him face-to-face. Actually, more of a face-to-fist would help me feel better. Um, no. Never mind. I'd rather talk things out. As I started toward the door, I noticed the mirror peeking out of a slightly open drawer.
Hmmm… Maybe I could just- no. BB first, then mirror. But then, curiosity took over. I ran to the dresser and pulled the smooth, perfectly shaped mirror out of its compartment. As I rubbed my thumb on the edge, I found myself standing in the now familiar place. Raven's mind. I skipped over to her first emotion section, happiness. As I walked under the stone arch, the setting changed into a land of cotton candy, flowers, beautiful trees, and pink. LOADS, of pink.
"Raven! Raven!" I called out. Soon, I saw a pink-cloaked Raven standing in front of me.
"Hey, sis!" she happily cheered.
"Hey, Rae," I said gloomily. Raven frowned.
"What's wrong?" she asked. I told her the whole story. About BB, my realization, everything.
"Oh! You think he likes me. Well, I can assure you, he doesn't."
"How do you know that?"
"Not supposed to tell." And she disappeared.
