Okay then, last time I left yall with a cliffie. And if you didn't realize it was a cliffie, well who asked you? Also, the last chapter didn't hold as much humor as I wanted it to. Oh well, you win some, you lose some!
Chapter 8 Freaksville Pt.2
"Whoa." they both said again.
Raven's room had undergone major plastic surgery since the last time they had seen it. The walls were now painted a hideous hot pink. The bed had disappeared underneath a heap of tofu waffles ("So that's where they went!" BB said). A pile of dirty diapers were piled in a corner ("I wonder who used them." Cyborg murmured). Stacks of old magazines, empty soda cans, AOL CDs and tape dispensers were scattered over the ground. On the far wall the words "BITE ME" were written in mustard and the ceiling and floor were covered in bubble wrap. But the one thing they could not miss was a giant mountain of glowing green glob in the corner.
"It looks like Starfire went on a "cleaning" spree in here." Beastboy said stepping carefully over a dirty purple sock.
"Spread out." Cyborg said. "Find that mirror before Raven comes barging in here to blow us all up."
"The nerve of her, breaking our privacy!" Beastboy exclaimed.
The pair stepped, crawled, rolled and jumped all over in Raven's room. As the minutes passed, the two Titans became more and more frantic.
"Found it!" Cyborg gasped, crawling out from under Raven's bed.
"Under there?" Beastboy questioned, bending down to look under.
"I wouldn't go in there if I were you. I think the green blob had a bad case of diarrhea under there." Cyborg said.
Cyborg straightened up. "Alright then. It's time."
Beastboy paled. "You mean..." he whispered.
"Yep. We're going through the looking glass." Cyborg held the handle of the mirror. "Beastboy? Beastboy get over here!"
Beastboy was standing near the green glop. Tentatively, he stretched out the finger and poked it. Beastboy flinched and waited for devastating results. Nothing happened. He sighed and relaxed.
"GRRRRRRRRRRRROARWL!!!!!!"
BB screamed and ran over to Cyborg.
"Ready now?" Cyborg asked.
Beastboy nodded and gulped. The pair touched the glass with their fingers. A smoky black hand rose out and grabbed the pair of them. It pulled them into the mirror.
Beastboy and Cyborg were thrown viciously to the ground. The two immediately picked themselves up.
"Stick close to me." Cyborg said. "Yep, this place hasn't changed a bit."
The surroundings were enough to make you wet your pants. The sky was black and over the edge of the maroon ground, the beyond was endless and black. The trees were spiky and black and out of the little caves and holes were glowing red eyes.
Cyborg looked down. "You know, when I said stick close to me, I didn't mean we were gonna be conjoined at the hip."
Beastboy was clinging to Cy's leg with arms, legs, neck, ferula, pelvic bones and all. He slowly detached himself, but still clasped Cyborg's hand.
Cyborg rolled his eyes. "C'mon man! We gotta find out what's wrong with Raven!"
Yanking his hand out of Beastboy's grasp, Cyborg set off at a trot. Beastboy followed close behind, looking warily at the glowing red eyes all around. Cyborg suddenly stopped beside a tree.
"Hey. You seeing what I'm seeing?" Cyborg muttered, squinting ahead.
"What? What do you see?" Beastboy stepped next to Cy, forgetting all fears. Maybe that wasn't such a good thing. Beastboy accidentally brushed against the tree. With sudden shrieks and calls, the crows erupted from the tree. They hovered in the air, then dove toward Beastboy. Beastboy screamed and ran around in circles. The crows followed, pecking at BB and yanking his hair.
Cyborg stepped away from the tree, unaware of the wreckage going on behind him. A little way ahead was a glowing red ball. And inside the ball was...
"Raven." Cyborg breathed.
Behind him, Beastboy screamed and squealed, trying desperately to fight off the territorial crows. Cyborg turned and saw Beastboy's trouble.
"Beastboy! Do you gotta bug those crows every time we come here?" Cyborg sighed.
He activated his sonic cannon and blasted the crows away. In an explosion of feathers, the birds that were left retreated to their trees, still watching the intruders. Beastboy threw himself at Cyborg's feet, sobbing in relief.
"Get up man! Tell me what you see there." Cyborg pointed at the red ball.
Beastboy got up and squinted. "I see...Raven?"
"I thought so." Cyborg said. "C'mon!"
The two titans set off, running as fast as their legs would carry them. In no time, they were at the ball. Raven floated inside, eyes open and staring.
"Wait a sec!" Beastboy said. "If Raven's in here, who's out in the Tower?"
Cyborg sighed. "It's not Raven in the Tower. It's Raven's emotions. Don't you see? For a while, Raven had these mood swings, and we all agreed it was normal. Then, Raven was acting weird 24/7. That was when the switch was made. He got Raven in here, and sent Raven's emotions out there."
Beastboy frowned. "But...who's he?"
Cyborg looked at the ball. "Trigon."
Okay then, I'm done! Logging off!
