CHAPTER IV

Raven P.O.V

A strange feeling comes over me as we enter Nevermore. Something's off, and I'm afraid to find out what. Beast Boy just sat there, astounded at the appearance of my mind. Right now, my mind is cluttered, which means the 'scenery' has changed since the last time he was here. Instead of floating rocks in an endless void, theres a dark forest. This is going to be harder than I anticipated.

"Uh, Raven. What happened to the floaty rock thingies? How do we get anywhere now? My plan might be ruined!" He was starting to pace around, and I couldn't take much more of it. Luckily, I noticed a figure in gray walking slowly towards us. Beast Boy noticed too, because he said,

"Hey isn't that Timid? I thought she lived in a maze." By the time he said this, she had gotten close enough to hear us.

"I'm sorry about the sudden change in scenery! I didn't know it was gonna happen, I swear! Don't get mad." She started to shake and cower, but Beast Boy just walked over and put a hand on her shoulder.

"Hey, its okay, nobody blames you. Its okay. Would you be able to tell us where Knowledge is? We need to see her about something important. You can come too if you want!" He offered her his hand, and I was surprised to see her take it. She smiled... Well timidly, I suppose. Then she slowly started to lead the way, never letting to of Beast Boy's hand. I have never seen Timid this out of character. Usually she just cowers and doesn't speak. Now, I'm not certain what she's doing, but it isn't being overly scared, that's for sure. She starts to apologize for all of the things I've done. And, strangely enough, I'm starting to feel a little guilty for treating Beast Boy the way I have. Even now, after everything I've ever done to him, he still tries to help me in any way he can. It makes me feel... Different. I'm not sure what yet, but different nonetheless. Timid has stopped outside a bright open field, and I can only guess what's going to come next...

Beast Boy P.O.V

I can't believe how much Timid has to apologize. I wonder if Raven actually feels that way. Wait a minute, what happened to all of the trees?!

"Raven... Where did the creepy forest go? And... Oh, it's Happy, isn't it." I start to walk forward, then I notice Timid start to tremble when I let go of her hand.

"What's wrong? Are you okay?" I reach out and grab her hand again.

"I'm scared, I've never been this far from my domain. I don't think anyone likes me." I see tears in her eyes, and since she's a part of Raven, it hurts me.

"Hey, its okay. I'll be right next to you the whole time. I'm sure they'll like you." I give her a hug, and she seems to perk up a tiny bit. At least she stopped crying. While i was helping Timid, I didn't notice a flash of pink right behind me.

"Hey BB! Whatcha doin?" I jumped at least three feet, and Timid started to cower again. I look up, and see Happy floating upside down.

"Hey! Why'd you scare me like that. Now Timid's crying again! Why would you do something like that?"

I'm yelling now, and I notice Raven try to hide a smirk.

"What?! You think this is funny too? Well, at least i made you smile. Even if I had to be scared ten feet into the air to do it, hehe." I start rubbing the back of my neck awkwardly, and I see Timid in a fetal position on the ground. I feel bad, like its my fault this happened.

"Hey, don't be scared, we were just playing around. Happy wasn't trying to hurt you. We all like you, and wouldn't want you to believe anything else." I crouch down to her level when I say this, and hold out my hand. She slowly takes it, and we start on our journey again.

"Hold on, I have an idea!" I turn into a kitten, and climb into Timid's arms. She starts to relax, apparently an unconquerable feat in Raven's eyes. She just walks along silently with us, and I laugh mentally at her face. She has a look of confusion, and amazement. Happy keeps talking, and taking us towards Knowledge. I'm only focused on the real Raven's face. I never realized before how beautiful she is. Its almost like, when she's here, she can express her true self. The one that shows true emotion. It makes me happy, to see her so bright. The. I remember why we're here in the first place, and I start to focus once more...

Raven P.O.V

I can't believe it. He made Timid do it again. He made her do something different. Happy just keeps talking, apparently oblivious to what just happened. I see Beast Boy turn into a kitten, and lay in Timid's arms. I notice that he's staring at me, and I can't help but blush slightly at the attention. I can read his emotions, and he's happy, and content. Maybe its because Timid stopped crying. Maybe its because I can actually smile here. One of the things he tries to make me do on a daily basis. Something so insignificant, but dangerous if I do it. The slightest change in my emotional demeanor can cause explosions all around me. But here, I can do whatever I want, and not have to worry. While in my thoughts, i didn't notice anybody stop, and I ended up walking into Happy.

"Hey, watch it silly! We're just at Brave's place, noticing to shoulder check me about!" Only she can say something meant to insult someone with a smile and cheerful tone. We walk into Brave's domain, and it looks like a karate dojo. There were katana's on the walls, and dummy's set up throughout. I notice Brave attacking them, and destroying them. She looks up, and yells

"Hooah! Bout time ya got here. I was starting to get bored. Hey, you brought Timid with you! Maybe i can get her to spar with me!" That comment made Timid start to shake in fear, and Beast Boy changed back to himself.

"Why do you all make fun of Timid? Its not her fault she's afraid of some things! I hate to see anyone cry, and you guys do it like its your job. She's a part of you, just like Knowledge, Happy, Rudeness. All of them. The least you could do is treat her with the same respect you give each other!" Beast Bog was mad. I saw Timid trembling again, and Brave actually apologized. Usually she's arrogant, and just wants to kick anything that moves. Beast Boy is really starting to confuse me. He's able to do something that I have never been able to do before. He's changed my emotions, and I'm not sure how I feel about that.

"Can we please get on with the journey? Beast Boy, you said you had a plan. Can we do said plan BEFORE the world ends?!" Brave jumps up and leads on...

Beast Boy P.O.V

Wow. Raven's pissed. Its kinda funny actually. I actually stick up for her, and she gets mad. I don't do anything, she gets mad. Its confusing, but hilarious. I swear, I'm changing her emotions, and she's not happy. What's next? I make anger love me? NAH! Well, Brave seems to just want to talk about destroying things, and fighting. Timid just keeps apologizing for everything, and Happy just laughs about it all. Its strangely comforting to see everyone here. I'm sure I'm just going crazy before the end of the world, but I'm going to try, with all of my power, to make sure she doesn't lose this battle. Even if I die in the process. Brave stops, and points at a huge library. I do a double take.

"Who needs that many books?!"

"Hahahaha, she's always so serious, maybe she should hang with me for a day! Maybe she'll come out once in a while!"

"Man, she doesn't even make an effort to try to spar with me!"

Throughout it all, Raven just looks at us, and if stares could kill, we would be so far under the ground, China wouldn't even cut it. I turn to her and say'

"Hey Rae, don't worry. My plan should work, no matter what happens to me. I don't want you to suffer any more. You've lived 18 years dealing with the thought of world destruction being your fault. You need to be able to experience the fun things, like Stankball! And life as a whole. Now lets to to the library! Never thought I would actually say that in my life, heheh."

We start towards Knowledge, and I realize I might not make it back from this adventure. At least Raven might be able to survive this whole ordeal. That's enough for me to keep walking towards the end...
