A/N Okay so I was shopping for Christmas gifts online and I got my sister the Swan Princess. I have always liked that movie so I thought I'd make a BB/RAE story based on one of my favorite animated movies. Love, my downfall or my savior fans I will be interchanging between this story and that story.
Disclaimer: I don't own the Teen Titans or the swan princess
The palace of Tharaza was more crowded than usual. In the center of the room was an infantile girl. She was surrounded by people from all over all coming to offer their many gifts.
She was crying loudly not liking the noisy people surrounding her. A young boy walked down the aisle that led to the girl after being prodded by his father multiple times. Halfway there the youngster turned to his father looking for reassurance. His father smiled at him and he proceeded towards the crib. When he arrived he looked over the side standing on his tiptoes. He was unable to see over it still so he lifted his hand over the side and dangled his hand over shaking the small gift he held.
He felt the gift start to be yanked on and let go. The babe stopped wailing. Knowing his gift had been received he began to withdraw his hand from the crib. Suddenly a small soft object grabbed him.
The infant had managed to grab the hand and pulled it towards her face. She snuggled her face into it as if it was a stuffed animal and fell asleep.
After a long while the small boy's father walked to the crib wondering what was taking his son so long. When he saw what was the cause he smiled widely. He walked over to the crib gingerly freeing his sons hand while trying not to awaken the babe.
The young boy walked next to his father not knowing his father had just made a crucial plan for his life while he was preoccupied with giving the necklace to the little princess. All he knew was he was returning to his castle in Arenul. He had delivered the gift and was leaving it in the small hands. Almost certain he would never see the gold chain with the hand carved obsidian Raven charm which sported the emerald gem on it's chest again. He was never more wrong in his life.
5 years later
"Mom where are we going?" young Raven asked.
"We are going to a place known as Sabet it's a distant land that you will go to every other summer. The king and I are very good friends."
"Oh" Raven said staring up at her mother with tinted purple eyes.
Arella smiled at her almost six year old child. "Do you see the land over there honey."
"No, I do not mommy."
"There are sea gulls flying over it."
"Oh yes now I see it mommy."
"Well that is where my friend lives I think you will like him and his child."
"Oh he has a daughter I am very happy now I don't like the thought of going somewhere without another girl my age."
"Well actually he has a son."
Raven shifted uncomfortably at this remark. Boys had always been mean, rude, intollerable, insufferable and complete jerks around her. Recalling times when princes or sons of rich men had come to the palace. She had been pushed in the mud by a prince from some neighboring land. She had also been shoved by a dukes son. And some emperors son had stuffed a frog in her pillow. She shook the hatred of boys off to answer her mother. "Either way it should be... an... um... experience I will not forget in the near future.
After she spoke the sentence she remained quiet and looked out to th sea. Her dress flapped in the wind. It was a beautiful light purple dress with loose long sleeves.. It had a dark purple bust. Shoulder cuffs and collar. A gust of wind blew at her face and the cursed little girl held a hand to her black head piece.
Yes, the young princess was cursed by an angered fairy. The fairy had fought with her mother before giving Raven her gift and she was cursed to odd almost uncontrollable powers. This was one of the reasons her only friend was Starfire a foreign general's daughter. Her father was at war with one of Tameran (Starfire's home planet) and Tharaza's warring lands. He had asked the queen to watch over Starfire. He also informed her of another daughter that had been captured by the warring land. Starfire (which was her translated name) also had odd powers after being tested on by some warlocks. Why they were testing on her Starfire proclaims she did not know being that she was so young when it happened.
Raven felt the boat shake violently and grabbed onto the deck railing attempting to not fall off the ship. The boat stopped shaking and gave Raven a moment to regain her composure. I hope this boy is different than the others especially since I have to spend every other summer with him.
"Ah King Marcus so very nice to see you again."
"Same here Arella. It has been so long... 5 years I believe."
"That would be correct."
Raven began to walk down the boats ramp her long purple hair lashed at her delicate pale face. When she felt her feet were on sturdy ground she guided her defiant hair out of her face and yelped breaking a nearby vase. A boy about 1 or 2 years older than her was standing in front of her about an arms length away.
The boy was most peculiar his skin was an unnatural shade of green. His hair gave off a similar effect. His eyes were a charming green color. He wore a black cape with a collar that wrapped around the back of his neck and partially covered his face. Underneath that he wore a purple T-shirt which had a loose long sleeved shirt underneath it. The shirt had a long body and a belt wrapped around his abdomen. His pants were tight and black in color. Before Raven could back away from the boy. He grabbed her hand and hesitantly kissed it. Raven yanked it away. The boy turned around and started violently rubbing his lips. This was going to be an ... Interesting summer.
The boy turned back around to the girl. He bowed and said "Pleased to meet you. My name is Garfield."
Raven curtsied and scrunched her nose. "My name is Raven. I am so VERY happy to be here."
"I think we'll leave you two lovebirds to play." Arella and Marcus ran away. Garfield pretended to gag and raven stuck her tongue out.
"Ok first of don't touch me, talk to me or came in a 5 foot radius of me." Raven hissed.
"I wouldn't want it any other way."
Arella and Marcus looked out the window to see their two children talking. "It is working out perfectly." Jacob exclaimed.
"If they get married our two kingdoms will be joined. You know that right."
"That was exactly what I was thinking."
Back to Garfield and Raven
"Aw man our parents are watching." Garfield walked up to Raven and offered her his hand remembering what his father instructed him to do. Raven shoved him and he fell in the pond. "That's it I don't care pop's say. You made me mad."
Raven and Garfield gave each other vehement glares. Garfield changed into a fox this took Raven by surprise not knowing he had any advantage at all being a scrawny boy. Quickly shaking off the feeling she felt a sudden anger and her powers lashed out at the boy sending him towards the lake again. She turned around and gave a triumphant smile not noticing a splash was never made. Suddenly a small green lizard was crawling on her face. She backed up and fell in the lake herself.
The lizard which had escaped the water turned into Garfield. He laughed uncontrollably at the drenched girl in the lake who had a lily-pad atop her head.
