Authors Note:
Hello everyone! Here's another new chapter!
Just so you know; we have combined Raven and Beast Boy's chapters into one. Why? The stories we wanted to tell with them where too short.
Also, I am surprised no one commented about James' Harem 2. Oh well.
James' Harem
Chapter 33: Raven and Beast Boy Year 1
A calm, feminine figure sat cross legged in a large fancy looking white building. She was flouting lightly, reading a book. She had blue bob-cut hair, wearing a blue/black costume with a golden belt, laden with deep red rubies. Raven, the daughter of Trigon, was studying. She would grow stronger. She would surpass his control over her, she would become a powerful sorceress. The Titans would be victorious
"Raven, do you require nourishment?" An elderly voice spoke from outside the building's door.
"I am fine." She said simply
"Very well." The voice answered and left, leaving Raven to study
Raven was flipping through book after book 'Knowledge...A mountain of knowledge...And I still need to learn more.' She thought to herself, using her magic to speed-read 'I need to grow stronger. I am still an ant compared to him.'
'Maybe you need to calm down?' One of Raven's emotions asked her, this being Happy
'NO! We need to get smarter!' a crazed Intelligence yelled
'Yeah, I KNOW! But your glasses are getting fogged up from overwork.' Happy answered
'D-Don't yell, please.' Timid flinched as she covered her face in fear
'FOR KNOWLEDGE!'
*on Earth*
Down in Jump City, there was a green-skinned individual wearing a purple and black jumpsuit. He smiled as he sat in his office, going over paperwork 'Man, I can't believe how much I'm doing.' He thought
"Mr Logan?" His lover smiled, walking into the room
"Yes, Ms Wilde?" Beast-Boy responded with a chuckle
Coming through the door was a red-haired girl with tiger ears and tail swinging free, wearing a blue shirt and jeans "We're closing in half an hour." She explained
Beast Boy sighed back in his chair and flexed his hands "Good to know."
"Are you okay Gar?" Summer asked with a frown, rubbing his shoulders in worry
"Yeah...Just...Just missing my friends, that's all." Garfield answered. She frowned, kissing his neck. Garfield smiled and held her hand. "I'm glad I've got you...And the others." He whispered sincerely
Summer smiled and kissed her gently "What do you want to do now?" She asked
"You help everyone close up; I'll finish my paper work." He nodded
"Okay." Summer nodded. "I'll be back soon."
BeastBoy nodded and kissed her, smiling 'I love my mate.' He thought as he left. 'I love ALL my girls. How long has it been?' He looked at his calendar curiously.
Six months. The Titans have been separated for half a year
It was weird, true, he had some trouble with some bank robbers and small-time villains, keeping up with his training...But most of his time was devoted to his girls and the club
"Sir, we've heard about something strange going on." One of the girls said as she walked in
"What's wrong, Sophie?" Garfield asked, getting out of his chair
"Apparently some... thing has been spotted sneaking out of the ocean and breaking into stores." Sophie explained
"Alright; are the others okay?" He asked as he followed her
"We are." She smiled "It was just some info we heard from the guests."
"Good. You and the others stay safe; I'll go check it out." Garfield answered
"Thank you." Sophie answered, kissing his cheek
Garfield chuckled with a smile. Garfield finished his paperwork and once the club was closed he met up with the girls "Okay, so tell me everything you girls know about this mystery creature from the lake." He asked/ordered
"Alright, first there's been sightings of...SOMETHING, coming out of the ocean. Not many people caught a good look at it." One of the girls spoke
"There are reports of a strange creature breaking into stores and stealing things that were found at sea." Another added
"Okay, what sort of 'things'?" Garfield asked, trying to get a clear picture
"Just... Things." One shrugged
"Old cups. Pieces of sunken ships. Rocks. Stuffed fish." Another explained
"Stuff you get from the ocean as gifts?" He answered
"Stuff that were found on the seafloor." Summer corrected
"So we've got a connection: a sea creature taking back ocean floor stuff." Garfield answered "The question is: why?"
The girls shrugged
"Well, the shops are close to the waterfront...maybe the thing will attack the next one along the pier?" Garfield asked
"Are you going to check it out?" Summer asked
"Yeah, I am." He nodded. He kissed them all, going into the back and getting changed 'Note to self: get some lip balm.' He thought, turning into a bird and flew off to the pier. He flew around the water front, his keen eyes scanning across the land 'Thank you 360 vision.' He thought as he screeched among the other birds, landing on an aerial to search around. He was doing his best to gather information 'Okay, Just need a clear sight.' He thought
*with Raven*
Raven was currently meditating. She was trying to calm her emotions. In front of her was a very VERY dangerous boo.k This was a Forbidden Level tome, something that she was nervous about using but she... She needed the knowledge to seal or destroy Trigon
To destroy the man who birthed her.
But this could twist her... Turn her into a monster
The risks seemed to outweigh the rewards, if this worked she'd become even more powerful, if it didn't...she'd be just like her father
She closed her eyes, shaking gently
'I can't fail. I-I have to do this.' She thought to herself 'I have to.' Using her powers, Raven began to absorb and learn the spells and magic within the tome. Waves and ribbons of arcane eldritch lore penetrated her mind through the gem in her forehead. She gasped and clenched her teeth in pain, her eyes glowing with anti-light. The magic radiated within her, flooding her being with power.
*In Raven's mindscape*
The emotions all yelled in pain, falling to their knees in pain ESPECIALLY Intelligence "It-it's too much!" Intelligence cried out
"My head!" Happy cried
"It hurts! It hurts!" Timid screamed
"Need. To. Keep. G-going!" Brave called out
"It fucking hurts!" Rage roared in pain
Soon, a hissing sound crawled into Raven's mind. Like a giant serpent, slithering and sliding in Raven's mind. The ground began to crack as well "It's him!" Intelligence cried out
"We-we've got to hold on!" Brave called out. Happy just continued to cry and shake
"Poor girl...trying so hard." The slithering his of the serpent continued to decimate Raven's mind. "But ultimately pointless. You think you can change destiny? Change who you are? WHAT you are?"
"I know I can!" Raven called through tears, still standing despite the pain
"Look at you. A witch's daughter...with a demon heritage. There's NOTHING you can do!" The serpent hissed
*with Beast Boy*
"Dang, how did I do this on stake outs?" Beast Boy asked himself. He sat on a roof, bored as hell. He then remembered back when it was him and Cyborg, laughing and keeping each other company. He smiled, remembering the video games and the pizza and the meat/tofu arguments "Heh...Good times. Not long left buddy." The green hero smiled "... I miss all of them." He sniffed sadly, before his ears caught something...Something like a reverse-splash. He looked up and saw... A thirteen year old with long black hair wearing a blue scale like shirt? "...Okay? That's new." He told himself as he flew down, trying to get a better view. Looking close the teen seemed to have gills, looking around cautiously. The teen seemed to be looking around the ocean gift shop before he ran inside 'What the heck?' Garfield thought as he flew down. He frowned, following the teen. The blue clothed teen was looking around trying to find something and the store was a wreck "Whoa, he must've been looking for more ocean stuff." Garfield whispered "Hey now, AquaBoy." BeastBoy joked, turning back to human
"Huh? Who're you? Why're you here?" 'AquaBoy' responded, turning around looked at the hero Although he spoke in a language that BB did not understand
"Err...No speako Sim-Speak?" Garfield responded "Oh well." He shrugged, charging into battle
The AquaBoy backed up in shock and leaped over Beast Boy... And fired water from his hands
Beast Boy spluttered as he was shot back into a wall with the jets of water flooding his face "The hell?!" Soon, the black haired and blue suited individual left, leaving Garfield all wet "Oh man!" He groaned. He ran out of the store, trying to catch up and hoped that he could get dry in the process, but the guy was already in the ocean "Damn it. I could follow but...Wouldn't be worth it." Garfield shook his head "Gak!" He yelled in pain as he was slammed against the wall suddenly "Hnn! Wh-What the-?" Garfield asked. He blinked and looked up slowly, seeing a... monstrous shadow that quickly jumped into the water after it roared at him "What...The hell?" He gasped
*with Raven- in her mind*
Raven was struggling to keep her emotions in check, she felt herself becoming corrupted by the darkness and the evil voice in her head. The serpent was breaking up her mind-space, the EmotiClones and her like a resistance as they ran for their lives but some had already been taken. We find Raven and several clones in a small 'camp' around a fire "I...I can't believe we're all that's left." Love frowned
Raven was silent, looking at what members of her emotions where left
Love, Brave, Intelligence, Anger, Fear and Raven herself. Six... six. That was ALL that was left. Out of everyone in her mind...they were all that's left.
"We're going to fail... we're going to loose..." Fear whimpered
"It's over. Fucking over!" Anger snarled, punching the ground
"There is no way to get out of this! None!" Intelligence whimpered as she flipped through a book, one of her glasses lenses being heavily cracked
"We...We've got to stay strong. The others are fighting." Brave answered
"James...James..." Love whispered
"James and the others would not give up." Raven said calmly
"Yeah, James wouldn't give up." Love answered, thinking on their lover.
"... true." Rage nodded with a slight growl
"But what can we do? That this is nearly unstoppable." Intelligence spoke
"They are like zombies... monsters..." Fear mumbled
"We have to...We've got to think of something." Brave answered
"I know we can beat that thing and save them." Raven nodded
"Have you got an idea, Raven?" Anger asked, her hands raising from the ground
"No Ragen." Raven rolled her eyes, using the nickname James called her "But I know if we keep looking and trying we WILL find a way. We ARE Titans."
Love giggled gently at the nickname. "Hmm. Yeah."
"We are and will." Brave nodded. They all smiled lightly... when they heard a mad laugh fill the room
"It's here!" Fear cowered in her cloak
"She's here." Raven nodded, the girls quickly putting the fire out and hiding themselves in the darkness
"One, two, one, two. Where ARE you~?" The voice sung as it was coming closer "Come on, don't you want to play~?"
Fear was shuddering in Brave's arms, trying to stay quiet "Pour girl." Intelligence mumbled
"I should kill her!" Rage snarled lightly
"No, she's still a part of us." Raven answered
"Besides, if she grabs you then you're doomed." Intelligence reminded
"Grr...!" Anger growled and held her tongue
They all looked up, seeing the shadow pass over their area for a few seconds. They remained quiet, keeping their tongues...And they relaxed. The figure had left
"Happy." Raven whispered in slight fear 'I can't believe you turned...One of the first to fall.'
"Maybe we aren't the only ones left." Intelligence said after a few seconds
"Yeah, there's got to be others. We can't give up." Brave agreed "Maybe we got split up!"
"But can we risk searching?" Timid asked
"We'll be in eyeshot. We won't be too far." Intelligence answered
"Who said we're even going?" Rage snarled "If we go out looking for others we will be a walking target!"
"What ELSE are we supposed to do?" Love asked
"We can't stay here." Raven nodded
"Then let's move!" Brave answered. Rage snarled lightly, the girls gathering their gear
"No matter what. We stay together." Raven spoke "Understand?"
"Yeah." The remaining emotions answered, even as Rage sounded annoyed
*With Beast Boy*
Garfield was back at the club a week later, having not made much progress "Damn...I can't believe I've been losing all this." He frowned, sitting in his office. He'd lost against that blue guy twice since their last encounter. He had a hurt arm and wounded pride...It wasn't good for him
"Garfield?" Summer asked gently
"Huh? Oh...Hey." Garfield smiled sadly "You okay? Is everyone alright?"
"Yes, you've just bee quiet the last few days. I was worried." she nodded
"I'm...I'm not...strong." He frowned
"What?" Summer blinked, going over to him "Don't talk like that!"
"I keep getting my ass kicked." He huffed
"So do the people roughing up the girls." Summer answered
"How am I supposed to help people if I can't beat this guy?!" He frowned
"Maybe you are thinking about this the wrong way?" She suggested
"Huh?" He blinked. "Wh-What're you saying?"
"You're going and being a muscle head." She said simply
"And that's not working for me." Beast Boy frowned
"So be smart." She smiled
"Yeah...Not my strongest suit." Beast Boy admitted, even as he smiled "But I do have an idea."
*With Raven*
The group had been whittled down when they were hiding. Anger had been taken, sacrificing herself so that the others could escape. It had shocked the others but they had to keep going "Come on. We need to find shelter." Brave spoke
"But there's nowhere to run!" The voice of Rude mocked from the shadows
"RUDE!" The group gasped, seeing their fellow emotion ... And she was not alone as Happy, the light blue clad Calm, the brown clad Sloth and the recently turned Rage. All of their skin had been turned red, just like Trigon's, and their clothing was rather... different. They all had clawed fingers and sharp teeth, their upper faces clad in a grey feather-designed helmet which covered down to their noses with no holes for eyes. The helmets almost looked like some kind of mind control device. They were all clad in sleeveless grey jumpsuits, the suits having lines of their colour going down their body from their necks to their legs in a straight line. They were all wearing knee-high leather heeled boots with spiked bands around their ankles. They were wearing elbow length black gloves that only covered their ring and middle finger leaving their thumb, forefinger and pinkie uncovered. And finally they all wore a 'cape' of feathers in their colour that reached their ankles. They all moved like animals, nearly crawling as they walked towards them
"Oh no!" Love gasped
"Damn it." Brave clenched her teeth
"We were so close." Timid whimpered, hugging her grey cloak
"Don't worry crybaby, you'll love this." Rage snarled lightly with a grin
"Hmm!" Timid flinched
"You've lost." The controlled emoticlones spoke in unison
"No way!" Brave snarled, taking a step forward
"Huh?" The Emoticlones asked
"You guys go." Brave ordered, cracking her neck
"Brave, wait!" Timid called out
"GO!" Brave shouted "NOW!" Timid, Love and Raven left, lifting themselves using their magic while Brave began to take the clones on "Bring it! Bring it!" Brave yelled, punching and kicking at the corrupted emotions as they attacked
"Grr!" The clones growled, trying to grab them
"Come on, bitches!" Brave called out. 'Anger, I'm gonna pay you back.' She was doing her best, doing her full badass best
"Ha!" A controlled Anger roared and reached out to Brave
"No you don't!" Brave snarled, grabbing the controlled emotions wrists and holding her back as Anti-Light shot out all around them
"GAH!" The controlled emoticlones screamed, getting blasted away
Brave panted, falling to her knees as she smirked "Ha...Ha...G-Gotcha back." Brave commented as she was going to get overwhelmed. She used up all her energy on that blast, glad she winded them as well
"That wasn't nice." Happy snarled as she crawled towards Brave, teeth bared
"Just get it over with... You bitches." Brave spat with a glare. The four let out an inhuman screech as they all jumped at Brave, covering her like lionesses eager for food as they began to bite into the now screaming Brave
"Brave!" Timid cried in Love's arms as Raven got them out of there
"There was nothing we could do." Intelligence sighed, the four now far from the ambushed sight
"What do we do now?" Love asked, holding Timid in her arms
"We keep going to my library." Intelligence nodded "... Force a reboot."
"Force a-? You mean resetting my mind?" Raven snapped
"We BOTH know it is the only option." The yellow clad Emotion Clone snapped simply
Raven frowned, she didn't want to do this...she'd lose everything about her last six months. She cast... Basically 'save' spells every few months, making protected backups of her mind. Rebooting her mind would have rip apart EVERYTHING she was so the spell would restore her "Let...Let's go." Raven frowned. She would be back to stage one. She would have to relearn every new spell again... She was so stupid! 'Why didn't I foresee this?' She frowned 'I had to be desperate and risk this stupid idea.' They had to keep moving, they had to get to her internal library. She or Intelligence needed to get there
They needed to stop this
*With Beast Boy*
Beast Boy was once again waiting. He was going to get this guy...or whatever was giving him grief but he was gonna be smart 'Come on buddy...where are you?' He thought. Seconds later the blue armoured figure emerged from the sea 'Alright. Gotcha.' He thought. He jumped down, turning into a squid
"Huh? HEY!" The figure gasped in their own language and struggled against the squid Beast Boy only now... Garfield could understand him!
"I can understand you!" Garfield gasped
"Get off me!" The teen snapped
"Not until you tell me WHY you're doing this!" Garfield answered, tightening his grip "And why can I understand... You're an Atlantan!"
"Yes, I am an Atlantean. Now release me!" The man answered "I am Garth of Atlantis and I command you!"
"No way, dude. I need to stop you from wrecking these stores." He answered
"I am trying to STOP the thief you moron!"
"Y-...You're STOPPING a thief?" Garfield asked as he let go.
CRASH!
Both teens where sent flying, crashing into a wall by the large brute from before "Ow..." Both Garfield and the blue costumed being groaned. They both looked up slowly at the behemoth "Oh...Shit." Garfield gasped
"Exactly." The Aqua Lad nodded, the two jumping to the side
"The hell IS this thing?!" Garfield asked, landing on his feet
"He is called Baratos." The teen called "An Atlantan super thief. He sees everything under the sea as his property so when he discovered the surface world has been taking stuff they recover he came up here to steal it 'back'."
"Oh, great." Beast Boy answered
"Aqualad." The Atlantean thief frowned, glaring at the blue suited being "KILL YOU!"
"Move!" Aqualad ordered, jumping out of the way of Baratos' attack.
BeastBoy quickly turned into an eagle and flew out of the way, dodging the attack 'Okay, 'Aqualad' good. 'Baratos' bad. I can live with that.' He thought swooping down to attack Baratos from behind... by turning into a T-Rex and roaring
"Wh-What the?!" Baratos gasped as a song screamed on the radio
"I'M A MOTHER FUCKIN' T-REX! AH-HA-HA-HA!"
TAIL TO THE FACE!
Baratos was flung into a wall, like a bitch with Beast Boy racing at him to ram his head into the villain proclaiming "FUCK YOU BITCH! I'M A MOTHER FUCKIN' T-REX!"
"Huh." AquaLad smirked as he jumped down, water swirling around his hands and forming swords
"ARGH. Bloody creature!" Baratos snarled, pushing back Beast Boy
"Just go back!" AquaLad yelled "This is not your world!"
"And neither are the treasures these THIEVES stole from OUR people!" He roared "They stole MY treasures!"
"Dude. Get a LIFE!" Beast Boy answered, swinging his tail and threw the guy into another building "You're not the king of the world!"
Baratos groaned as his body was caught under rubble.
The heroes smirked, fist bumping lightly "Nice job, thank you." Aqualad spoke
"Same." BB nodded "Sorry for not thinking about going fish and talking."
"It's fine...Do you understand me now?" Aqualad asked, blinking since Beast Boy was now in his human form
"I'm keeping the fish-part of my brain active, yes. But maybe you should learn English." Garfield laughed
"Hmm...A second language WILL be useful." Aqualad answered
"Yeah." Beast Boy nodded, pulling out a spare Titan's Communicator
"What's this?" Aqualad asked
"A communicator. If you need help, gimme a call on this." Garfield answered "And a few others."
"Hmm...Thank you. I will take Baratos back to Atlantis to be judged." Aqualad answered. "It was good to meet you. But...I don't know your name."
"Garfield Logan, Beast Boy." He smiled
"Garth, Aqualad." Said hero answered with a acknowledging nod.
"Of Atlantis, I worked that out." Gar joked
Garth chuckled and grabbed Baratos, heading back to the ocean. "Get stronger, Garfield Logan."
'Yeah... Get stronger.' Gar thought with a sigh 'Gonna have to work on that pep talk.' He thought, heading back to the club
*with Raven*
Raven, Timid, Love and Intelligence were almost at the memory library, they were going to undo this mistake. They were entering the building, slowly and silently 'Please...Please, no evil emotions.' Timid thought in worry
'Nearly there.' Love thought
'Don't think negatively, don't think negatively.' Intelligence thought as the group had approached the door
'So close.' Raven thought... Then they heard several sets of laughter as the walls began to crumble
"No!" They gasped seeing their last hope fall
They saw the large snake monster coiled around the building, hissing lightly "Too bad...Ssso sssad." The snake hissed. "You've come ssso far."
"It's not over yet." Raven glared
The controlled emoticlones began to swarm the remaining group. They were laughing evilly. They were crawling on the ground and over bookshelves like lizards, a swarm growing closer and closer
"Hey!" Timid yelled, shooting a blast of dark-light at them "Follow me!" She yelled, taking off flying as fast as she could
'Timid.' The group thought as they followed Timid. They nodded and ran, knowing they had to get there
"Run, Run, Run...you won't get far." The serpent hissed "Get them."
The emoticlones crawled and then ran after them, even if most had chased after Timid. The remaining emotions and Raven raced through the library. They had to stay safe and get to the reboot section
"Come on!" Intelligence yelled as they ran
"We're coming!" Love answered, shooting anti-light at their enemies, hoping to gain time.
"Don't run away!" The controlled emoticlones called out, seemingly coming through the walls. It was like something from a horror movie, they could almost hear the heart pounding music
"Keep going, keep going, keepgoing!" Timid cried. She was flying as fast as she could, trying to lead the corrupted emotions as far away as possible
Intelligence, Love and Raven carried on through the library, heading to the reboot section. They HAD to succeed. Suddenly a bunch of EmotiClones jumped out and pinned Love go the ground "GAH!" Love screamed as she was becoming corrupted
"LOVE!" Raven and Intelligence called out
"R-Run! RUaaaa-ha-ha-ha-ha!" Love ordered before becoming fully corrupted and was driven insane. She was being bitten, almost like they were vampires or zombies, as her body and clothing morphed and changed
"Come on!" Intelligence pulled Raven
"Love." Raven cried as she was dragged away
"We'll save them, Raven. P-Please, keep going!" Intelligence answered "Come on!"
The two continued through the winding staircase, going deeper into the library hoping to find the reboot spell. They were going to fix this. Timid yelled as she was finally pinned, crying "L-Let me go! Let me go!" Timid cried
"Don't worry, you'll love it." Happy grinned, kissing her
"Hmm?" Timid whined as she felt Happy's lips on hers, feeling the corruption flow through her and then more clones began to bite her
"AHHHHH!" Timid screamed, echoing through the halls
"Timid!" Raven cried at the noise of the gentles of her emotions, as well as hearing the screams of Love as the two were being turned into monsters
"We...We've got to keep going." Intelligence panted "Come on... We're nearly... There..."
Raven was panting heavily, she could feel the corruption affecting her, she was afraid. All she could feel was fear
"Almost...Almost there." Intelligence panted, running on fumes now... And she was tackled by Brave
"Intelligence!" Raven gasped
"GO! GO!" she screamed
Raven did as she was told, not looking back, hearing Intelligence's screams fill the corridor as she raced off. She was crying, her shoes clicking as she ran 'Hurry up.' she thought
"Raven~" The monster's voice sung darkly. "Ra~ven..."
'Nearly there! Nearly there!' she thought, entering the small room with a red button in a pedestal 'There it is!' She panted, going to it ... Only for the giant red snake tail to burst through the wall and block her "Mother!" Raven screamed in shock. She fell on her ass, the EmotiClones all entering the room
"You're sssurounded. Nowhere left to run." The serpent hissed
"No..." Raven whimpered, looking around cautiously
"Can't run, Raven." The Emoticlones chanted
"You're ours now." Timid hissed with an insane grin
"Everyone..." Raven frowned, feeling helpless
"You'll LOVE it." Love grinned before she laughed at her joke
"*Burp*." Rude belched and smiled
"You'll feel at peace Raven." Intelligence smirked as she walked out of the crowed of clones, the latest corrupted clone
"I...N-No. I won't be beaten." Raven answered, feeling SO MUCH of her twisted and changed. She closed her eyes, crying as the monsters grew closer and closer "Everyone...I-I'm sorry." Raven whispered. She listened to the wind, closing her eyes in defeat while she held her head high
In the wind, however, she heard music and a few words flouting in the breeze
'When there's trouble you know who to call.'
'H-Huh?' She whispered to herself
'From their tower, they can see it all.' The wind continued
"... That's right..." She whispered, opening her eyes as they glowed with anti-light "I am not alone! I am NEVER alone! Which is why you can not win!"
"Huh?" The emoticlones and the evil serpent gasped as they saw her acting like this
"Starfire... Smiling and bubbly... Always happy..." Raven said with a smile "She helped me open up... She made me laugh... She helped me express joy..."
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Happy screamed as she fell to her knees, a pink aura sparking around her while the other Emoticlones' eyes widened as they baked up
"Wh-What?" The snake gasped
"Robin...Tough and willful...Our leader." Raven began to step up "He helped me stand tall... He lead by example... He let me accept my nervousness... And show my courage!"
Timid and Brave both began to scream, falling to their knees as grey and dark green sparks covered them respectively
"S-sstop! I order you!" The snake snapped
"Beast Boy...Beast Boy made me laugh, despite being so annoying." Raven admitted "He is rude... Dumb... Arrogant... Lazy... All aspects I hate to see in myself... But thanks to him, I no longer push them away."
Rude and Sloth followed suit of the other emotion clones, sparking in orange and brown respectively
"Cyborg...Smart. Intuitive." Raven continued "He drive me to become smarter. To expand my knowledge on everything. Like a big brother, supporting me."
Intelligence began to glow brightly, the yellow aura surrounding her
"Stop! I command you!" The snake tried to lunge forward at Raven
"Terra... She was manipulated... Twisted... Forced to hurt us... But she never meant to..." Raven said sadly "In a way she taught me the pain of trusting someone... And the reward of not losing your hope in others."
The light blue cloaked Raven followed suit, the sparks and screams like the others
An aura of white appeared around Raven, the snake monster hitting it face first as it protected her "Nooo!"
"Jinx." Raven sighed "She... She taught me jealousy... She was the subject of my secret anger... As, even though she was almost never around, she felt closer to James than I did... And she made me feel like I did not matter to him."
A lime green light emerged from one of the emotions, shattering through the corruption
"Bumblebee... Blackfire... Both powerful and strong... Both with pains that run deep..." Raven listed off "You could say... They helped me understand compassion."
A dark blue cloaked emotions yelled as it to sparked
"... And my father." She snarled "There is only one thing he EVER taught me... Rage... Hatred... Anger... Which my friends helped me to both accept and control!"
Rage began to glow a burning red, the aura cracking out through the corruption
"... But James..." She smiled gently, sighing lovingly "He... He awoke something I had not felt since my mother died. Love."
Love began to crack open, the loving purple aura shone through the corruption, the emotions were being free from the monster's control. They were all on their knees, crying in pain
"All these people made me who I am... Helped shape me." She said, standing tall "And you...You. WON'T. Break me! These are MY emotions! This is MY mind!" She yelled, the emotions slowly fading away into particle and flying into her... While the books of the library began to spin around her
"NO! No, impossssssssible!" The serpent hissed in shock, seeing the power of magic and Raven's emotions combine into her.
"... I thought you were familiar." Raven said as her cloak and leotard turned white slowly, like water washing over her body and cloths "You are a low class demon. A vampire of the mind and a soul. Ancient texts refer to you as 'Goth'. Someone I learnt about when I was 9, long since forgotten. Said to hide in dark, ancient texts ready to take advantage of those searching for knowledge."
"Damn you! You little WHORE!" Goth snapped, launching at her.
"Your words mean nothing to me." She said, slowly clenching her hand. A glowing white hand appeared out of nowhere and clenched the snake demon by its throat, holding it still
Goth struggled, trying to free itself, but it couldn't get free "NO! NO! NO!"
Raven became a large white energy raven, calm and not reacting "Not so big now, are you?"
"Wh-What isss that? What ARE you?" Goth gasped in shock
"I am Rachel Roth! I am Raven! This is my soul self, my ultimate spell!" She roared, facing at the demon "NOW BEGONE!" In a blinding white energy, Goth was evaporated from Raven's mind.
This caused a chain effect, leading her attack through her mind and attacked the low-level demon IN the tome he was trapped in.
