Chapter 2

Adventure.A magic Prince & Princess

It had been almost a few years since befriending Raven and I made a good choice. We never got bored of each other. You would think we would get into a big fight a least once but that didn't happen.

"I wonder why that is," I thought aloud.

Raven turned her head towards me raising an eyebrow. "Why what is?"

"Why we don't fight. Sure we can get on each other's nerves but we don't have huge arguments."

She started to snicker then pfft at me. "We do. It's just your so into not having a fight you avoid conflict at all cost," she complained.

Was she right? Probably? I should not try to be so careful. For as long as I can remember I was extra careful not to slip up with my powers afraid a conflict would arise and I would be rejected. I felt safe around Raven because we are both mutants and can easily accept each other. Look I'm a ten year old boy worrying about this when I should thinking about kid stuff.

"Let's just go somewhere far. Have an adventure," I suggested walking towards Raven.

She was up in an instant with a big smile stretched across her face. "Far? Like away from the mansion far?"

"We can go exploring deep in the mysterious forest."

Before I knew it she quickly grabbed her jacket and started to run pulling me along by the hood of the jacket.

The forest away from the mansion was more beautiful it was untouched. To some it was creepy but that actually helped keep people away from the mansion. It also helped that I put into people's heads that there was an evil ghost who would eat you if you dare entered this forest. The mansion was Raven and I only place where we could do and say as we pleased just be ourselves.

"This is horrible! We cannot return home until we find that treasure." Raven shouted throwing her little arms up.

"Don't worry we will just have to search high and low," I said playing along as I jumped on a boulder.

"Professor we cannot let those people down"

"I wouldn't dream of it my assistant"

Grabbing a stick she drew a map and the task we would have to do to find the treasure.

We had completed almost all the task we just had one more task to go.

I grabbed Raven shoulder and pulled her behind the tree.

"What's going on?" She asked confused.

"Do you see that guy over there? The tall man with crazy red hair and a beard. I told her"

She had caught on to the imaginary person I was thinking of "Your right how are we going to get past him?"

I closed my eyes thinking of a plan but when I turned to my side Raven was gone.

"I know your there and I got your friend." The crazy red haired man called out stepping towards me.

Raven was a good at this she could become a great actress. Even if she couldn't turn physically into a man with crazy red hair I still have believed she was one if I closed my eyes.

I ran for my sword and so did the red haired man. We both grabbed it at the same time swinging the swords until they clashed. We battled hard neither of us giving up. I was caught by surprise when I was pushed to the ground. The man stood above me pointing the sword at my neck. I quickly grabbed for another stick using it as a sword. Then with one quick movement I knocked his sword out and sprang to my feet with the sword.

Taking the sword I rammed it between the side of the stomach and the elbow pretending to stab him.

"This ends now!"

"NOOOOOO!" The man shouted falling on the floor.

I stood there as a watched Raven still disguised as the man pretend to die for at least five minutes. If she did become an actress she would have to work on her dying skills. She turned back into herself running towards me.

I quickly ran up to hug her. "I'm so glad you're ok my assistant."

Let's go get that treasure." We both said in unison.

We turned around and stopped dead in our tracks right in front of us was a little girl. She looked about to be around the same age as me. I should have been focusing to hear other people. I can fix this but before I could utter another word she screamed with excitement."

"It's a magically prince and princess, She squealed with a huge goofy grin.

Raven and I both looked at each other I didn't need to read her mind to know we both knew this could be trouble.
