A Thousand Years

by LostOceanKit

Raven was once a 17 year old witch, who was happily in love. That is until Malchior, one of the darkest and greatest warlocks of their time attempted to court her and was rejected. His rejection became her worst nightmare as he lay a curse on her to live eternity alone with no chance to ever be reunited with her love. What happens when he misspeaks the spell for another? BbRae

1. Prologue

So I am currently in the process of redoing Teen Titans Karaoke Night. I'm not happy with it and I want to try doing it a different way. And I'm working on chapter two of Just A Toy. I'm going to write out a couple chapters before I post a chapter. And hopefully get farther along that way. This story I've got a pretty good jest of it in my head and I know what I want with it. I just hope that this one becomes as popular as Just A Toy.

This story is an AU story. I've been getting into more AU stuff lately. I like where this one is coming from. I plan on posting parts of the song as I go. The song is called A Thousand Years Part 2 by Christina Perri.

The female parts will be on the chapters with Raven's POV/side of the story. The male's parts will obviously be Beast Boy. The duet parts will be in Third Person.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed coming up with the ideas for this story.

The names for everyone in this are as followed(As are the pairings for the story):

Raven- Raven Roth
Beast Boy- Garfield Mark Logan
Bumblebee- Karen Beecher
Cyborg- Victor Stone
Starfire- Kori Anders
Robin- Richard Grayson
Jinx- Janette Willis
Kid Flash- Wallace West
Terra- Tara Markov
Aqualad- Garth Matthews

Pairings:

BbRae
CyBee
RobStar
JiKF
TerAL

So on with the story! Oh yea, Azarath is a country in this story! BTW:

Flashbacks

DISCLAIMER: I don't own Teen Titans or A Thousand Years part 2. If I did, we would be in like season 15 or something lol.

Prologue

Quick and light footsteps could be heard running down the marble hallways of the Azarathian Temple. The young woman ran as fast as she could. Something didn't feel right. Raven knew that something was horribly wrong and it scared her. It was supposed to be a good day. This was supposed to be her wedding day to the man she was so madly in love with. As she ran, she felt the tears rolling down her checks. Her hands bunched the front of her gown as she ran, making every effort she could to not trip over her gown.

It didn't take long for her to reach her destination, as she spotted the large gold doors to the alter room. With one hand, she forced the heavy doors open and burst into the room. She stopped, eyes widening in horror at the sight before her. At the end of the alter, was the almost lifeless body of the man she loved. She felt the tears rush quicker down her face and the uncontrolled fury as she looked at the figure standing before his gasping and bloodied body.

"You!" She snarled as the fury and rage grew. The man hovering over her love smiled with a malicious grin, eyes dark with amusement.

"Yes, me." He mocked. Malchior rested his hand on his hip as he watched the young woman come closer to her would-be husband. "I told you." He sneered. "You'd regret it if you wouldn't accept my offer."

Raven gathered the man into her arms, whispering softly to her dying love. "I'm so sorry, Garfield." She held him close, running her hand through his hair softly. "I love you so much." She spoke softly as the tears continued to come. He smiled softly and painfully, lips parting to reply. She shook her head. "I know, love. Don't speak.."

Garfield chuckled weakly. "I love you, my angel.." He whispered anyway. She choked back a sob, nodding." I know." She replied softly as, his eyes closed and he took his last breath. Raven gently laid his body down and stood. "I will kill you, Malchior." She whispered just barely loud enough. He laughed.

"You think a little girl like yourself can kill me? The most powerful dark warlock in the of the world?" He mocked. She growled, grabbing the sword that lay beside Garfield. "Oh my darling girl, you must understand. You are only dreaming." Malchior laughed. "I'm not yet done with your wedding gift though!" He said happily. "This was just the first half of my gift!"

Raven's eyes narrowed. "What do you mean?" She demanded. He grinned coldly.

"I offered the chance for you to be mine. My one and only love, but you rejected me." He sighed. "So now, you shall live for eternity alone. With no love of your own. Never to be reunited with your Garfield in death. No matter what you try, you will not die!" He laughed. "How does that sound, Raven? To know that you will never be able to die, leaving you never to see him again!"

Raven's eyes went wide as Malchior started to chant a spell softly. She looked at her love before whispering softly to herself before she lunged forward and swung the sword in her hand, slicing the silver haired warlock's head off. As his head fell, she dropped the sword to the ground and moved to stand over her dead lover. She dropped to her knees and gathered him into her arms, burying her face into his neck as she sobbed.

She wasn't entirely sure how long she had stayed there but at some point people had come in search of the young woman. They had found her, lying beside the body of Garfield, holding tightly to him. It had taken much convincing to release his body, but when she finally did, her mother had pulled her into her arms and taken her away to their home.

It had taken some time but when Arella finally got her daughter to speak of what had happened, the woman had been brought to tears herself. Arella brushed her fingers through Raven's hair before tipping her head up to look at her.

"My darling daughter, do not give up hope. From the sound of what you have told me, he misspoke the spell he had intended to set on you. He set a spell that simply set Garfield's soul to be reborn until you are both reunited." She spoke softly. "You are immortal but once you are reunited with your love, you will be able to live eternity together."

"How can you be so sure, mother?" She whispered, tear streaks down her face. Her mother smiled. "I have set that spell myself to help a dear friend once before." She answered. "The words were exactly as those he spoke."

"S.. so there's still a chance for me to be reunited with him?" She asked, pleadingly. "This is no jest is it?" She demanded of her mother. Arella laughed softly. "Yes, child. There is still hope for you both to reunite."

Raven's eyes widened as she embraced her mother once more. "I am grateful for that hope, mother."

Arella smiled. "Of course, my daughter. Now rest, my beautiful daughter." She whispered, softly as she stroke her daughter's hair. Raven nodded softly, moving to get into her bed. She sighed softly and closed her eyes. She had no idea of when she would possibly be reunited but she hoped it would not take too long.

As Raven lay in her bed, her mother(in another room) whispered a spell softly, casting immortality on herself so she could remain with her daughter as Raven searched for her mate.

Arella finished quickly and climbed into her own bed, eyes closed. "Do not fear, my darling girl." She whispered. "We will find your love. I don't know when but we shall find him."

So there was the Prologue to the story. I figured you all would like to know the backstory of what happened to her. I hope you all enjoyed it. I know I had fun writing it! I will be working on the actual first chapter as well as chapter 2 of Just A Toy.

Until later, everyone! Bye
