THIS CHAPTER IS DEDICATED TO YE!!!!
Chapter 4: Trigon's Daughter
Azar turned around. "And this is Raven....I am training her."
Raven blushed slightly, but smiled a small smile, and a flower wilted.
"Oh dear, yes, we will have to work on that." Azar said, but smiled sweetly.
"Uhh I'm Be-Garfield. Garfield Logan." Beast Boy bowed.
"Where are you from, Mr. Logan?" She asked.
"Earth...I'm here accidentally and all...." He didn't think it wise to tell a woman of Azar's standards all about how he's from the future and all....
Azar didn't even ask Beast Boy(Garfield) why he was green.
"Are you in need of shelter?"
"I guess....I don't know how long I'll be here....but I don't want to burden you with my presence...." Garfield froze. He didn't even know he could use big words like burden and presence!!! (Shows you how...erm...you know....dumb...he is...)
"Oh no, no, that's fine. Do stay for a bit. At least for dinner and/or a spot of herbal tea."
Garfield smirked. 'So THAT'S how Raven started liking Herbal Tea...'
Azar turned back to Raven. "Do you want to show this nice young man around?"
She shrugged, then nodded.
'Dude....she's quiet....' Garfield thought.
"You two go on now, I shall go get dinner started..." Azar went inside.
"Uhhhhhh hi?" Garfield said to Raven, extending his hand.
Raven eyed it, then looked up at Garfield, blushed lightly, and looked back down. "Hi"
"How old are you?"
"10....how old are you?"
"14"
"Wow...you're 4 years older than me?"
"Yep.'
"Wow.....hey, want to see my room?"
"Sure"
"Okay." Raven smiled, and led Beast Boy into the palace.
It was HUGE.
Paintings of what Bea-GARFIELD thought were famous poets, artists, scholars, etc. of Azarath's dark and mysterious culture.
Raven led him up a marble staircase, and down a long winding hall. Then she stopped a door with the name 'Raven' on it.
"This is my room..." she said, and opened the door.
Once again, Garfield was in pure AWE. The room was HUGE, DARK, and reminded him of Raven's room in the tower.
Exotic prints on Raven's bed....a rug like a pathway to her bed, dark bookcases filled with hundreds of magic books, strange statues, and of course, lying on a desk, her meditation mirror.
"This is my bed...OH! And this is my bookcase! And....these are my statues of the Gods!" Raven seemed excited to show off her room to Garfield.
Garfield looked around. "This is a pretty cool room you got here."
"I thank you."
His gaze fell upon a diary. The same diary that was in the 15-year-old Raven's room. "Is that your diary?"
"Yes," Raven replied. She was tidying up her bed and making sure all of her books were straight and dusted.
"Ohhhh."
An idea filled Beas-GARFIELD!(stupid aliases)'s head. The diary brought him here....maybe it could bring him back?
He silently reached for it. He was on the first page when he was sucked in and saw Raven as a 5 year old. So...that must have been her first diary entry!
The first page read:
'October 29 Year of the 94th
Dear Book of Empty pages,
I introduce myself as Raven Metrion....'
First page had no swirling portal.
He was about to turn the page when someone grabbed the book out of his hands.
"What are you doing?" Raven asked.
"Ummmmmmmmmmmmmm stealing shampoo from the bathroom?"
She glared at him. "Don't touch this book....please."
"I-uh I'm sorry, Rae..."
"Rae?"
"Yes...."
"My name is not RAE. It's RAVEN!" she snapped.
And suddenly, all of her books fell out of the bookcase.
Raven gasped, and immediately bent down to pick them up.
"Ohhh I'm sorry, Raven" Garfield said.
"I...guess it's alright....would you mind helping me please?"
"Sure."
And they picked up the books.
The last book on the floor, which Garfield picked up, was the familiar 'Book of Azar'.
"That's my most treasured book," Raven said, noticing how Beast Boy was looking at it.
"Wow...."
Then he looked around again, and saw a picture of a beautiful woman with dark curly hair and deep blue eyes sitting on Raven's desk.
"Who's that?" Garfield asked.
Raven looked at the direction he was looking, and realized he meant the portrait. She sighed. "That's my mother."
"Your MOTHER?"
"Yes...Arella..."
"Wow....where is she?"
"Somewhere on Azarath. Or Earth maybe. She's from there."
"So I've heard..." Garfield said, remember what the five year old Raven had said.
"Azar met me and offered to take me in to help me learn to control my powers..." Raven explained. "So my mother gave me up....I don't know if I'll ever see her again...."
Garfield touched her shoulder. "Don't worry. I'm sure you will."
"Azar's been a better mother than my mother ever will be..."
"Well I-"
"Raven!" Azar called.
"Yes?" Raven called back.
"Would you please run to town and get us some fresh vegetables? Garfield may go with you!"
"Alright."
Raven looked at Garfield. "Would you care to join me?"
"Of course!" he replied.
------in town----
As the duo walked down the dark streets (Though Raven said it was only about 3:00 pm), Garfield couldn't help but notice people staring at them, and whispering to each other.
"Um....I presume they don't see many green people 'round here?" Garfield ask.
Raven didn't reply. She opened the door to a store called 'MARKET'. Garfield followed.
Upon Raven's entrance, people froze, staring at her.
Raven ignored them, and went to the fresh vegetable area. The vegetables looked like the ones on Earth....just...mutated.
She picked up what looked like a mud-covered asparagus, and two 'rotted' potato things.
Garfield grimaced at them, and as they turned around, people were still staring.
Raven sighed, and put them on a counter, and handed the cashier a large black coin.
The cashier handed it back. "Just...take them...please.." he said in a frightened voice.
Raven looked down, then took the bag and left. Garfield was staring at rotted potato things muttering "GROSS" and then followed her.
"Heh, people here are strange..." he commented as he walked alongside her.
Once again, Raven was silent.
She turned a sharp corner and walked down a dark alleyway.
Garfield looked confused, but followed.
As they walked down the alley, 3 boys jumped out from behind three trash bins.
Raven stopped suddenly.
"Well, well, if it isn't TRIGON's daughter!" One boy shouted, and the other two laughed.
Raven looked down.
"Daddy's little girl STEALING to get by again?"
She continued looking down, and Garfield could hear her murmuring "Don't lose control, don't lose control."
Apparently, the others heard her too.
"Awww are we making you mad?" The third boy asked.
"Gonna bring TRIGON among us?" The second asked.
"Apparently, Azar's training aint good enough for ya!" the first one said.
Raven clenched her fists.
Garfield quickly touched her shoulder, and stepped in front of her. "Leave her alone!"
"Why should we listen to a green midget?"
"Cause I said so."
The boys laughed.
Raven looked at Garfield.
Garfield smirked at her and then said "I warned ya."
He turned into a giant green T-Rex, a creature that Azarath's never ever seen or heard of.
The boys gaped at him, then ran off screaming.
Garfield turned back. "If they ever bug you again, just remember, you're better than them."
Raven was looking down. "No, I'm not."
"What!? Of course you are!!!"
"No, Garfield. I'll never be better than them. For I am Trigon's daughter. I'm a sin and a danger to my planet..." she said quietly, trying not to 'on Rae...VEN, it's ok. To me, you're better than anyone." Garfield knelt down and hugged her.
Raven hugged him back, and for the first time, nothing exploded. Raven mentally noted this....
"Let's go back," Garfield said.
Raven nodded, and slipped her hand in his.
This action shocked Garfield, but he smiled.
And they walked back to the palace.
