Chapter 4 The Demon Explores

Razgriz finished her breakfast pancakes, smiling all the while and feeling true happiness with her new friends. She stood up and took a deep breath and in her Russian accent, "Is it alright if I… speak with Raven before the rest of your questions? I do not mean to… avoid them."

Robin looked at Starfire then over to Cyborg, then spoke with a smile on his face, "It's fine Razgriz, we have time. Ravens room is on the floor above this one, it has her name on the door." Razgriz smiled back and nodded before turning around and walking down the hallway and into the elevator.

Cyborg walked over to the table with his breakfast in his hands, "I wonder what she wants to talk to Raven about…"

Starfire said one thing that Robin was thinking, "Perhaps it is about… Trigon?"

Robin responded, "Maybe… But it could be about her emotions. I don't think Raven can help her too much with that since she's been hiding them for so long. Unless she finally opened up to Beast Boy, that sort of thing would make her a little more open about her emotions. But they'd tell us if something like that was happening between them."

Razgriz enjoyed the elevator ride up; she decided it gave her a weightless feeling. The food and water had refreshed her as much as resting did the night before which helped to put her in her current good mood. When the elevator stopped on Raven's floor she walked out and stood there as the elevator door closed. For some reason she felt some sort of fear, although it was unlike the fear of the basement that she had experienced earlier. She was guessing it was something she knew as a form of embarrassment but knew it was called something else. She continued to stand there for several more minutes and thought to herself, 'Hopefully Raven can help me. I'm not sure how much more of these sudden emotions I can handle.'

In Raven's room:

Raven is meditating like she always does when she feels like relaxing, floating cross-legged above her bed and repeating her mantra. But something is different this time, very different for both of them. Beast Boy is sitting cross-legged next to her, not floating of course but repeating Raven's mantra with her.

For the first time in a long time he felt completely relaxed. Once he realized this he was surprised at how well meditating actually worked. He and Raven both stopped chanting at the same time, took in a deep breath, held it in, and slowly let it out. Raven opened one eye and looked at Beast Boy, "… Gar…"

Beast Boy opened his eyes and looked over to her, "Yeah Rae?" He was hoping she enjoyed meditating together as much as he did.

Raven looked away and spoke a little shyly, "Thanks… For trying this with me…"

He smiled widely at her, feeling pleased with himself, "No problem. I've actually always wanted to try this… I just didn't really know how to ask."

She decided to look back at him to smile, "Really? We can do this whenever you'd like. It was very… different, but not in a bad way." She cocked an eyebrow at him, "Wait a minute… You're not going to ask me to try that tofu or anything are you?" She now had a menacing look on her face.

He was starting to recognize her sarcasm a lot better in the past week, "Of course not… But if you think you want to try it…" She only responded by staring straight into his green eyes. This always made him blush and she knew it always made him forget about whatever they were talking about.

He halfway came out of his daze to say in a hypnotized voice, "Hey… I said 'if'." He smiled and went back into his mesmerized blushing state. He felt Raven's warm hand place itself on his hand then felt his heart speed up for a second. Just as their eyes began to close they heard a very slow knocking at the door. They both snapped out of their dream state of mind, startled by the knocking.

A muffled Russian voice came through the door, "Raven? It is Razgriz, may I…enter?" The demon stared at the door with 'Raven' written on it as she heard a few noises inside.

Raven got up from the bed and composed herself, "Razgriz? Just a second." She walked over to the door but stopped halfway to look at Beast Boy with a worried face. The way he smiled at her told her that he understood, he stood up and walked over to the door with Raven.

As the she opened the door Razgriz smiled at the two of them, "Good morning… friends. I was hoping I could speak with you about something Raven... If you have time."

Before Raven could answer, Beast Boy started to walk out and said smiling, "Well I'm going to get some breakfast ready." As he passed behind Razgriz she smiled again, "The pancakes are…" She laughed for a second to herself, "…Good."

Raven looked a little sad for a second then returned to her normal face, "Yeah Razgriz, I can talk. Come on in, have a seat somewhere." Razgriz walked in and sat down on the bed as instructed. After a moment Raven walked over to the bed and stood near Razgriz, "You wanted to talk about something?"

Razgriz took a deep breath seeming hesitant when she spoke, "I… was hoping that you could… help me with my emotions. I remember Beast Boy saying you could help me with things having to do with emotions." Raven crossed her arms and looked away sounding a little annoyed at Beast Boy, "That was something called sarcasm. Gar… Beast Boy was trying to be funny…" A small smile suddenly found its way to the side of her face.

Razgriz found this amusing and confusing, "You are… bothered by him... But you are happy because of him as well?" Razgriz tilted her head to one side.

Raven suddenly noticed she was blushing at the comment and quickly turned around, "It's complicated between me and Beast Boy… It would take a long time to explain. But I guess you could say he…makes me smile…" She smiled and felt happy at the thought. She turned back around a few moments later as soon as she felt her face cool off.

Razgriz suddenly remembered why she was there to begin with, "So…are you saying that you cannot help me with my emotions? You seem to…know yours well." Her plain expression changed to a depressed one.

Raven sighed and sat down next to Razgriz, "I've been struggling with my emotions ever since I knew I had them. They're tied to my powers and if I lose control of them or even feel too much of something I could end up breaking something… Or someone." Raven didn't know why she was telling this to someone that she knew for such a short time, "It's only been about a week since I started being more open to people, well to a person, with my emotions…" Raven was a little shocked that she let that last part out and hoped Razgriz wouldn't figure anything out. She hadn't even told her best friends that she and Beast Boy are together, not yet.

Razgriz smiled a little, "A week of letting out emotions is…much longer than my experience with them. Everything I am feeling…it is all a little overwhelming… confusing… and… and…" She felt sadness enter her and her eyes began to water, "To be honest… I don't know how much more I can handle."

Raven felt a strange need to help this person, this new friend. Maybe it was her atmosphere that reminded Raven of herself at some point in time, or maybe it was being more open with Beast Boy that made her want to help. Whatever the cause was she found herself holding the crying demon, her new friend, in her arms trying to comfort her, "I'll help you… Anyway I can Razgriz."

Razgriz felt warmth in her heart as Raven cradled her. She pulled away and took another deep breath, "Thank you my friend… I feel much better… I do not know why, perhaps it is simply being around a… friend, but I feel better…" Her sudden change in emotions had her confused once again but for the moment it didn't matter to her.

Raven gave her a small smile in return, "Why don't you start by telling me about what you've been feeling lately?" Razgriz nodded and began to tell her everything she had started to feel during her day at the Tower. She became excited in some way whenever Raven would name the emotion that Razgriz could only describe; there were many of these. When she recited the fear that she felt when peering into the basement she felt the same fear overtaking her mind once again. The fear quickly subsided with a few words from Raven, which Razgriz found very impressive. Actually, she found everything Raven said impressive and also extremely helpful.

There was one thing that Razgriz had been wondering the most about since she first awoke. She sounded a little afraid as she asked, "Raven… What is… What is… Love?" Raven stared at her for a moment with a plain look on her face, then looked down to the left blushing with a smile as she thought of the one she loved. Razgriz tilted her head and actually smirked for the first time in her human life, "Are you… 'in' Love?" Raven didn't want to say anything to anyone yet, but she found herself slowly nodding to Razgriz, "You must tell what it is like, please, I beg you!" She moved closer to Raven with eagerness and a smile on her face.

Raven was a little relieved she didn't ask who she was in love with, "Well… It's sort of hard to describe…" She looked towards her window, "It's like… like being free." Raven closed her eyes and let out a sigh. She hadn't realized just how in love she was until that moment and it made her feel wonderful.

Razgriz placed her hands on Raven's hand and smiled, "I feel… happiness for you my friend! So much so that I am moved to tears! I can see that you… feel many good things for this person… I can only… 'hope' to some day feel this way about another." She gave Raven a deep look of happiness to which Raven could only smile back at, "I thank you for talking with me friend, and helping me." She stood up and Raven did as well, "I… Wish to know more but… I think this will do for now. I do not wish to learn so much that I will forget." She gave a brief soft laugh.

Raven gave her trademark small smile, "Honestly… I didn't think this would go so well but… Anytime you want to talk with me, just let me know." Razgriz nodded and started to walk to the door but stopped before taking more than a step, "What is it Razgriz?"

She slowly looked back at Raven, "There is one more thing I wish to ask." She spoke very normal, "What is a 'Kiss'?"

Raven found herself blushing a little, "What do you mean?" She was a little confused as well, she didn't known anyone her age that didn't know what a kiss was. Then again Razgriz is in a unique situation, and was probably a lot older than Raven to begin with.

Razgriz went on casually, "I heard Robin saying something to Cyborg about it when I was in the…medical bed. They were in the hallway and I remember hearing Starfire's name when they mentioned the word 'Kiss'. A few moments later I saw Starfire and Robin…make contact with their lips just after one of them said something then the word 'Kiss'. Is it another means of… 'good' communication like a hug is?"

Raven took a breath, trying to stall for time as she looked for a right answer. Finally after almost a minute, "I…guess you could say that… It's… Well it's something you do when you like someone."

Razgriz still had a plain expression on her face and spoke in a plain voice, "Oh… I think I understand Raven, thank you." Razgriz moved toward Raven, who looked at her confused for a second. As Razgriz leaned her head towards Raven she suddenly realized she should have said 'It's what two people do when they like each other'. Raven backed her head away and tried to say something but it was already too late, all she was able to blurt out was "Mmph!" as Razgriz thrust her mouth onto her open one.

It lasted only three seconds, but seemed like hours of agony and embarrassment to Raven. Raven, frozen with shock, with wide open eyes saw someone at the door. His jaw would have been on the floor if it wasn't attached to him and his skin looked a lighter shade of green than normal. Raven found that she couldn't speak, she couldn't even blink for that matter.

Beast Boy came to the room to tell Raven he had made her some breakfast but stood outside of the door when he heard the two of them still talking. As soon as he heard Raven's explanation of a kiss he opened the door as quickly as he could, too late of course.

Razgriz turned to the side and put a finger to her chin, "Hmm… That was…somewhat amusing. It is hard to describe, for a moment I felt…something like the center of my chest moving in to my throat… It felt 'good'… How strange." She noticed someone out of the corner of her eye and completed her turn towards the door, "Oh, hello Beast Boy… Your face is different and your skin is lighter… Are you… 'okay?'" She obviously had no idea that she had just kissed someone's girlfriend.

Beast Boy finally broke out of his shocked phase and shouted angrily, "Razgriz! You're not supposed to do that!" His tone changed to a normal one suddenly, "Well some girls do," His tone went back to angry, "but that's a Whole different ball game!"

Razgriz tilted her head at him, "Human girls are not suppose to kiss human girls?"

Beast Boy sighed and walked forward a little more towards Razgriz, his angry tone had disappeared, "Well, that depends…but what I meant was that me and Raven---"

Razgriz interrupted him immediately, her plain voice was replaced by an excited one, "Oh! I see now! Thank you Beast Boy." Before he could say another word or react in any way their new friend grabbed his head and kissed his open mouth. His green face turned completely red and his eyes widened, meeting Ravens wide eyes just behind Razgriz' shoulder.

She backed her head away and let go of his face. Again she put a finger to her chin, "So strange… The same feelings and emotions almost… Maybe I should explore this more later." She began to walk towards the door, "Robin wanted to ask me more questions sometime soon, I believe he wanted the two of you there as well, I wish for the two of you to attend. I will go on ahead… Thank you again my friends." She walked out of the room as if nothing out of the ordinary had happened.

The two were left alone staring blankly in each other's eyes, both of them with open mouths and the same look of alarm, shock, and dismay frozen on their faces. The door closed automatically and seemed to jolt Beast Boy out of his state, he nearly jumped into the air and spoke with a speed he didn't know he had, "Ididn'tkissherShekissedmeyousawitIdidn'twantto!" Raven's face finally returned to a semi normal look, she didn't say anything. Beast Boy calmed himself a little but looked at her worryingly, "Raven… Are you okay?" He himself didn't feel okay. A girl just kissed him in front of the one person on this earth he loved. She must feel the same way… He thought to himself.

Raven found herself breathing rather quickly. She dived at Beast Boy who immediately returned her grasping hug. They held each other in their arms, both seeking comfort and affirmation of themselves after this strange and unexpected experience. Raven loosened herself from Beast Boy just enough to lunge at his lips. The warmth was there, the love, the feeling that was there last week on the roof. It made them both feel complete, it made the awkwardness left by Razgriz fade away for the moment.

To Be Continued.
