Probably the best chapter so far! More BBXRae-Rae stuff~! But just a lil'!
DISCLAIMER: I do not own the Teen Titans at all! Only Libra and her mysterious mysteriousness...
Chapter 10: Unlocking Secrets
"Raven, can you access this Gem's powers?" Robin asked when all five Titans had gathered in the living room.
"I'll try," she said, "but don't get your hopes up."
Raven placed the Leo Gem in the palm of her hand and began to levitate.
"Azarath, Metrion, Zinthos..." she chanted repeatedly. To anyone else, she appeared to be meditating.
However, in her mind, Raven was delving deep into the Gem's magic.
Surprisingly, the Leo Gem wasn't full of dark magic, like it was originally thought, but just had unusual magic powers. The Gem was also full of memories, not Libra's, but another's. They were zooming too fast to be seen correctly, but most were of a girl with a shapeshifting ability like Beast Boy's, except that the animals were their original colors. One of the Gem's final memories of the shapeshifting girl was handing the Leo Gem to Libra. "Keep it safe, Libra." was the last words, blurred by speed.
"RAVEN!"
Beast Boy's sudden shout broke Raven's concentration. She was lying in Beast Boy's arms on the floor, unaware of how she got there. The other Titans peered down at her with a confused look on there face.
"You okay, Raven?" Robin asked.
"Yeah." Raven nodded before turning to Beast Boy. "You can let go of me now." she told him.
Beast Boy blushed. "Yeah, right. Sorry." he mumbled, letting go of Raven. It was comfortable in his arms, but Raven would never admit that. She stood up, brushing the dust off of her cloak.
"What happened?" she asked her bewildered friends.
"We think you activated the Gem somehow. While you were figuring the Gem's powers out, green wisps of magic began to strangle you. Thanks to Beast Boy's quick thinking, you didn't suffocate, though you did lose consciousness for a minute."
When his name was mentioned, Beast Boy smiled goofily and held up the Leo Gem by the broken chain.
"Talk about jewlery to die for." He said.
"Yeess... to die for..." Libra slipped out from under the door, her voice full of shadows and hatred. "That may be the case yet... Now," Libra held out her right hand. "I'll be taking my Leo Gem back, thank you very much.
"Not a chance." Robin said as the Teen Titans got into they're battle stances.
"You think I'm weak, don't you?" Libra hissed dangerously. "What you've seen thus far was a small taste of my power." Small shadow tendrils sprang from her feet and twisted in a tentacle-like way.
"Give me my Leo Gem, and everything will be fine. You still have two hours." Libra's voice purred, trying to persuade the Titans.
Beast Boy's hold on the Gem tightened. "Not. A. Chance." He stated slowly.
"It ends here, then. One of us will be down tonight. You Titans are powerful adversaries. But I know almost all there is to know about you five, and I will test your endurance like nothing before has." Libra's hood was blown back by an unknown wind, revealing cat eyes full of hatred and power. They glinted dangerously.
"The game ends here."
Robin nodded.
"Titans, go!"
