Knight and day
Chapter 1- A troubled mind
Raven sat alone in her bedroom, as she spent most of her time doing. She had argued with Beast Boy, and during that argument he called her creepy. A fairly mild insult, but she knew he was right and it affected her deeply. It had been nearly a year since she had last been referred to that way. When it happened, she ended in accidently releasing an ancient and evil dragon from a cursed book. The dragon Melchior had tricked her, convincing her that he was a dashing hero from the book and that they could be together, but it was all a lie. Now, here she sat. Raven had always told herself how the right man would come along, the kind of man who could appreciate her for who she was. She sighed and laid back in her bed, despairing. She was beginning to lose hope that her knight in shining armor would ever show up. She fell asleep. In her dream, an armored gauntlet lay idle on a table. A hand, whose attached body was cloaked in shadow, reached down and slipped into the gauntlet. The limp fingers filled with life and wriggled a few times, as the mysterious wearer tested the fit. Then,his fist clenched, and there was darkness.
