Chapter Two

 Synopsis:

Ever wondered what would happen if one of Raven's emotions was released into the real world? Well, when Raven decides to squash her love (and lust) for Beast Boy, things get a little wacky... Lust is sick of being ignored and forgotten, and so Lust captures Raven in her own mirror, and goes out into the Tower for a little freedom. Sound good? Keep reading to find out what happens!

Introduction:

Like I said before, Flames Bad. If you hate my fic so much, tell me how to make it better instead of whining! I won't be offended if you said: 'you could have done this more clearly,' or, 'this part did not flow well'. God, I'll fix it! Just don't whine! I HATE whining!

Disclaimer:

I do not own the Teen Titans. If I did, Terra would be a member, but she wouldn't be in love with Beast Boy. Raven and Beast Boy would have several romance scenes during the series, with a few for Robin and Starfire too. Cyborg would stay the kick-ass robot he is.

Dedication:

To Laura, Tara, and Aero, my best friends, and to Alex, another best friend, who has helped me with this fic a lot. Also to all the Raven and Beast Boy supporters out there.

Hint For Chapter Three:

Raven goes into her mirror to find out more about what's going on with this new emotion, and is thoroughly annoyed by Happy.

Quote Of The Chapter:

"No need to stare," she said in a low purr. "You've obviously never met Lust and Love before, have you? I take it you can tell which of us is which?"

Meanwhile, inside of Raven's magical mirror, all chaos ensued. So much chaos, in fact, that all of Raven's different personalities and emotions had gathered to try and fix it.

Knowledge was the Master of Ceremonies. The yellow cloaked Raven tucked a lock of hair behind her ear, adjusting her glasses sagely before raising an eyebrow at the iridescent myriad of multi-hued Ravens around her. She sighed, slammed shut the dusty tome that she had been delving into, and licked her dry, cracked lips. The others were all silent.

"I think that you all know," Knowledge said, "why we've called you here. We are all here to. . . er. . . welcome two new emotions to Raven's mirror." Happiness shot Knowledge a broad smile, which the yellow Raven seemed uninterested in.

Timid nervously looked around, trying to catch a glimpse of the newest additions to the mirror. Meanwhile, Rage was crouching in a corner, muttering something under her breath as her red eyes scanned Knowledge menacingly and malevolently.

"Just get on with it," shouted Annoyance. "Beast Boy is about to wake us up, and Raven will be needing me."

"It's because of Beast Boy that we're here," said a silky, alto voice. A different Raven, her skin as pale as snow, stepped forwards and pushed her way through the crowd easily. Most of the other Ravens were too shocked to oppose her as she pushed by them. She was dressed in- much to the surprise of the other Ravens- rather revealing undergarments that were covered only by a see through slip.

This new Raven smiled coyly at her fellow emotions. Behind her trailed a nobler looking Raven, dressed in a white and flowing garment that flowed down to her slender ankles. The girl had a pleasant, warm smile hovering about her lips and her eyes twinkled with anticipation and excitement. She looked happy, full, whole. . . the first Raven cocked an eyebrow at the astonished looks that were cast in her direction.

"No need to stare," she said in a low purr. "You've obviously never met Lust and Love before, have you? I take it you can tell which of us is which?"

Knowledge shot her a glare. "We're not stupid, Lust. Now be quiet. Just because you've appeared in this mirror doesn't mean that the balance of power is going to change!"

"On the contrary, my dear. . ." Lust's voice trailed off. "I rather think it will. My sister and I will be taking over from now on, I'm afraid. Even though you Knowledge, and your sister, Reason, might have been the rulers of Raven's mind since her birth, I'm afraid that you've just lost your power over her. Even though she might not know it, she's in love. And wherever Love goes. . . Lust comes too."

Knowledge's glare intensified, and a second Raven quickly separated herself from the crowd, standing beside her sister. This Raven was also known as Reason, and was a sister to Knowledge. Knowledge and Reason both glared firmly down at the two new twins- one in a black, lacy bra and thong and the other in a simple, flowing white dress- that were now opposing them.

Knowledge nodded at Reason, grateful for her gesture of support. Lust shook her head at both of them.

"You know that you're helpless, don't you?" She asked, her face the picture of mock pity. "You know that once my sister and I take over, there won't be anything to stop us. I can easily dominate all of you, and I know for a fact that I can control my sister.

"You'll have to defeat Timid first!" Reason growled. "And Timid's so depressed and withdrawn that she'll never let you take power! She'll never let you, the most outgoing and whorish of us all, put her in a position of humiliation. She'll be too embarrassed to let you seduce Beast Boy." Rage opened one red eye, and then turned away. Unless there was going to be a fight, she wasn't interested in the goings-on.

Lust smiled seductively. "Oh, I don't think Timid will be too much of a problem..." To her surprise, her sister, who emitted a small, nervous coughing noise, interrupted. "What?" Lust snapped rather hastily.

"A small bit of your power is acceptable, dear sister," Love said calmly and breezily. "But too much will throw everything out of balance here in Raven's mind. Knowledge will be dimmed by our power, and Reason will be cast out completely. Raven is a sensible woman, but we're going to change everything in her life. . . we'll have to be careful, or she might do something that will hurt us all. . ."

Lust snarled. "My own sister! I can't believe you, Love! That's it, I'm going to get away from here and find a place in this stupid mirror to make my home. But I warn you, once I gain a foothold in Raven's mind, the balance of power WILL change, and you will all bow to my power. Love and I will take over this pitiful girl, and you will all pay." And then, the angry Raven stalked off.

Love, however, remained behind. There was an awkward silence. After a few tense moments, Love decided to break it.

"Listen," she whispered to Knowledge and Reason, "I'm going to help you. There is one way to keep Lust from getting too much power. We will have to get Raven to accept that she loves Beast Boy. She doesn't even know it yet, so that makes everything more difficult. If she does admit and accept what she's feeling, Lust can only use her power when both you and I say so."

The girl smiled warmly at Knowledge and Reason. "You two will have to accept me as one of you, though. I'll have to have an integral part in Raven's daily activities. Hopefully, Lust will come under my dominance before something terrible happens. . ."

But, if Lust didn't gain power, why would we be writing a story, eh?
