I give you all permission to beat me upside the head. I am so sorry that chapter 7 has taken so long. I had a really hard time with it but now it's here! I never thought I would make it this far. Anyway thank to all my wonderful reviewers. You guys are AWSOME!!! One quick note, bolded text is Raven's emotion talking, Normal is the real Raven. Hope you like this next chapter.
Disclaimer- I do not own the Teen Titans. I only own the idea for this story. No suing please.Raven blinked! She was in her mind but it looked very different from the last time she had been here. The sky had a noticeably blue tint to it. Soft grass carpeted the rocky path. There were even flowers growing here and there. Raven was shocked. Ever since her father had been defeated her mind had been slowly becoming less dark, but these changes were drastic and sudden. Her mind hadn't looked like this a few days ago.
"What is going on?" Raven wondered aloud as she poked at the grass with her foot. Yep it was real alright. "Okay, why dose my mind look like something from Star's room?"
"Because," said a soft voice right behind her. "You are changing."
Raven whirled around and came face to face with herself. Only there were a few differences. This Raven's cape was a deep crimson color and the jewel adorning it was a green heart shaped emerald. Her hood was thrown back showing off her slightly flushed face. It also showed that this Raven's hair was longer than the real Raven's. The crimson cloaked Raven's violet hair was lightly curled and it almost reached to her hips. Further more this Raven wore her cloak differently. It was thrown back over her shoulders so you could see her entire petite figure.
"Hello Raven." The crimson cloaked emotion smiled at the very confused Raven. "I bet you are wondering why I am back. Well you know better than anyone why I am here."
"No!" Raven almost growled at her stupid emotion. "You were locked away with Rage after that incident. You shouldn't have been able to leave. I am going to make sure you never bother me again." Raven tried to summon her magic but it just wouldn't come.
The emotion shook her head sadly. She was hoping that Raven wouldn't be so stubborn this time around. But it looked like she was going to have to do this the hard way. She waved her hand at Raven. Raven suddenly found herself sitting in a small white chair. In front of her was a table that contained two mugs and a steaming tea pot.
"Would you like some herbal tea?" The other Raven was sitting directly across from her with a big grin on her face. Raven sighed. Her magic wasn't working for her and it looked like she was going to have to listen to her emotion whether she wanted to or not. "Raven? Look I know you don't want to admit that I exist. I also know that you are as stubborn as a mule and that what I am about to tell you may not be to your liking, but just hear me out okay?"
"Fine," Raven growled. The emotion smiled even wider and then handed her a steaming cup of herbal tea. "Can I ask you a question before you start?" The emotion looked surprised but she nodded. "Will any of this help get Beast Boy back?" Raven blinked hard trying to stop the tears from coming even though nothing would be affected here. She felt a gentle hand on her shoulder and looked up to see the emotions standing next to her. The emotion smiled tenderly and squeezed Raven's shoulder.
"That entirely depends on you Raven." The emotion went back to her chair and sat. "Now I have broken free from my bonds because even though you are feeling me you refuse to admit it. Because of your denial you can't access you powers and you won't be able to till…."
"Till I admit that I am feeling you," Raven practically growled. Her hands were clenched on the edge of the table. Suddenly she shot out of her chair, knocking the table over and sending the full tea cups flying into the face of the emotion. "YOU ARE LYING! I CAN'T FEEL YOU. STOP TORMENTING ME WITH YOUR SAPPY LITTLE ILLUSIONS. SOMETHING LIKE YOU IS NOT POSSIBLE FOR A DEMON LIKE ME!!"
The crimson cloaked emotion sat staring at her lap. Tea ran down her face like tears. "I think its time you left. I can see that this conversation is pointless at the moment." She looked into Raven's irritated face and smiled a small sad smile. The emotion waved her hand at Raven's feet and a black portal opened below the teen. Raven felt her body being sucked out of her mind. "Raven." Raven looked up to see the emotion staring at her. "If you really want to help Beast Boy then I would think carefully about how you feel, demon or not." Raven vision was rapidly becoming darker. She couldn't see her emotion anymore but her words repeated in her head endlessly.
Want to help Beast Boy.
Help Beast Boy.
Beast Boy!
I'm sorry it is so short. I had a really hard time writing this dialogue between Raven and her emotion. Sorry if it sucked. Anyway I promise that the next chapter will be up much sooner. Since we haven't seen Beast Boy for a while it will mostly focus on him. Thanks for sticking with me. Please review and tell me how I can improve. Please!!! ;) Till next time this is Alika Jones. Peace out.
