Hiccups

Chapter Five: Something Wicked This Way Comes

On with the fic: Hehe You'll like this…

The Past:

In front of them, Rage's chains broke with out any resistance. Her face grew ruthless, and a maliciously taunting smile graced her features. She grew twenty times her normal size. Her skin which had been as grey as the others', now turned red with evil. Sharp devilish horns grew from her head, and her nails became like a cat's claws. Trigon had fully taken Rage…all over again.

Raven's hiccups had done the worse thing possible. They had set a possessed Rage free to kill everything and everyone that was stuck within the mirror.

The Future, err, I mean Present:

The emotions, Beast Boy, and Raven were all paralyzed with shock. Beast Boy was beginning to regret ever playing that trick on Raven. Although it had helped him get closer to her; maybe it hadn'tbeen his best move.

Beast Boy's eyes widened slightly as he noticed a large black orb swallow them. Then in a flash, they were in a totally different surrounding. Raven slowly pulled away from Beast Boy's shoulder, her face was a bright red, and she was sweating slightly from exerting herself in transporting them. She gave Beast Boy a cold glare, which he didn't know why she was directing at him, and strode over to her two emotions.

"You two, go and gather the other emotions. I'm holding a meeting." She commanded, her voice hash and nerve wrecking. She pointed a finger in a random direction and, terrified, they both disappeared.

"Raven, what was that all about?" Beast Boy asked, still staring at the placewhere Affection and Happy had been.

She gave him another one of her frosty glares and started to pace. "I just called a meeting with my emotions." She snapped. Beast Boy sweat dropped.

"Ah, I heard that part." He said softly, throwing a hand up and scratching the back of his head.

"Beast Boy." She stated, uncharacteristically quiet. She stopped turned around to face him. "Rage is too strong this time." She went on, ignoring Beast Boy's protests. "I know I have an extra emotion then before, but with these hiccups," she glared at him, "they're just making me too weak to fight her. I mean, what if I hiccupped in the middle of our fight and sent all of my emotions to an entirely different area, excluding myself and Rage? What would happen then?" She only sighed.

This was an entirely different side of Raven Beast Boy had never seen before. This time she was actually showing him her emotions, or at least she was trying.

"Hey, it'll be okay." He said softly. He walked over to her and hesitantly turned her chin to look at him. Raven was glaring at him. He instantly jumped back, laughing nervously. His face then turned serious, "I mean it Raven, I'll help you no matter what." She gave him a small nervous smile, one he had never seen in his life, and nodded.

Then "Hiccup."

Both turned around in surprise, nothing was happening.

Then they both turned as they heard small tentative footsteps coming closer. A Raven stood behind them. This one had on a grey cloak and looked as if she was going to be sick. Her face was very green and her cheeks were an awful grey. Obviously Raven's hiccups had ruined the health of Timid.

"They've all gathered now." She announced, her voice weak from trembling. Apparently Raven had a thing with the flu.

"Go, I'll be there in a moment." Raven nearly yelled at Timid. Timid obligingly scattered. Raven then turned around on Beast Boy, who jumped back in surprise.

"Well, what are you waiting for?" She asked him, her voice once again emotionless. Beast Boy then trotted after her and went into a niche hidden by sharp, pointed rocks.

All of her emotions, Happy, Affection, Timid (who's illness seemed to be fading), Brave, Rude, Knowledge, andWisdom, were gathered around in a large circle. There was a large empty gap between Affection and Happy where Raven and Beast Boy sat.

"Nice job Raven, you let Rage out!" Rude butted in before anyone else began to speak. Her cloak was orange and her face was twisted into a boorish smirk. Raven's eyebrow began to twitch with annoyance.

"Well actually it was my fault." Beast Boy spoke up in Raven's defense. They all turned to look at him. "I scared her and made her get the hiccups." He said pathetically while Happy just laughed.

"It was a really funny joke." Happy said to the other emotions.

"That's not why I called this meeting." Raven interjected hotly.

"I know. It's because of Rage." Knowledge said softly. All the emotions turned to her and nodded.

"Right, there's no way I can defeat her." Raven said unhappily. "She's too powerful for me now that I have the hiccups." All the emotions sighed.

"Maybe we can figure out a way to get rid of them." Affection stated as she straightened up, proud of her idea.

"We've tried everything I've thought of." Beast Boy said softly. "None of my ideas have worked."

"That's not surprising." Rude put in…rudely. Beast Boy's shoulders only slumped farther down.

"That's not true Beast Boy's done a lot of things to help us…he, uh…why he…well he, he was there after we got our heart broken by Malichor." Affection stated, after she grasped for something to prove Beast Boy's loyalty.

Raven suddenly looked like someone had thrown a stone in her face. "That's enough!" She yelled. The straw had broken the camel's back. "Let's focus on the now, please!" She asked, not really asking but more like demanding.

"Hiccup!" Raven sighed, exasperated, as a large boulder suddenly exploded. Now it was getting old.

"Well there has to be something we can do." Knowledge said, more to herself than anyone else. Beast Boy only kept quiet. Right now, he was more interested in watching Affection and Happy. They were both staring at each other and looked as if they were talking…though he couldn't see how.

"Hey I have an idea!" Happy cried throwing up her hand in victory. "Why doesn't…" But Happy didn't finish her sentence. Affection, who had been biting her lip in thought, suddenly jumped across Raven and Beast Boy and slapped her hand hard across Happy's mouth. After that, all that could be heard was a muffled screaming.

"You know, I just remembered that Raven, ah, dropped her, ah, thing, out back where you two were. Beast Boy why don't you go and get it for her." Beast Boy sweat dropped while he gave Raven a confused glance. She in return seemed just as bewildered as he was.

"I never…" Raven began to say.

"Oh, yes you did, and trust me, you're really going to want it back." Affection made sure to open her eyes wider motioning them towards Beast Boy. Raven seemed to take the hint, and quickly turned to Beast Boy.

"Uh, yeah Beast Boy, I really need it. Do you think you could get it for me?" She asked, while giving him a very rare smile. Beast Boy immediately brightened up.

"All right, I'll only be back in a minute." He stated, and then got up and left. After Raven was sure he was a good distance out of hearing range she turned on Affection.

"So what's so important that Beast Boy can't hear it?" Raven asked. This peaked the other emotion's interest. They quickly turned and around to face Affection. She blushed at the attention and cleared her throat as she finally let go of Happy. Happy fell to the ground, gasping for breath.

"Well Happy and I were having a silent conversation," everyone guessed that had meant they were talking inside of their minds, "when Happy made a very good point. She was just about to tell you when I stopped her."

"Well, why did you stop her and make Beast Boy leave?" Rude interrupted.

"Because Happy's point would have embarrassed Raven for the rest of her life, or until she finally gets some sense to admit the truth." She mumbled the last part but it was still loud enough for the Ravens to hear.

"Get to the point." Raven said, her voice slow and dangerous. Affection sweat dropped.

"Right, well she told me that maybe the best way for you to get rid of your hiccups would be for you…"

"To be scared again!" Happy piped up as she began to spin around the circle. Raven stared at the two emotions in shock. Be scared again? She supposed that made some sense.

"That's amazing." Wisdom spoke up for the first time. "I can't believe the two of you thought of that before me." Happy and Affection sweat dropped.

"Gee, thanks, I think." Affection said, chuckling.

"Ah, but why did Beast Boy have to leave?" Timid asked, barely above a whisper. All the emotions became quiet and turned their attention to Timid. Timid just blushed.

Everybody became quite as they heard a soft eep noise. After that though everything was quite, so they turned their attention back to the subject at hand.

"Yeah, why did Beast Boy have to leave?" Rude asked.

Affection blushed and started to mumble something.

"What's that?" Knowledge asked.

"I said…" Affection trailed off as there was a loud thudding sound. Almost as if a body had been dropped unceremonious against the ground. All of the emotion's ran out of the alcove in time to see Beast Boy slowly pick him self up off the ground. One of Raven's ravens was standing on the ground and giving Beast Boy the evil eye. Beast Boy just sweat dropped.

"Beast Boy, do you think you'll be able to not get to any more trouble if I go and speak with Affection alone?" Raven asked, slightly glaring at him. Really, she had had enough of his stupid games. Now all she wanted to do was get rid of her stupid hiccups, leave her mirror, and kill Beast Boy.

Beast Boy nodded and watched as the two Ravens slowly walked away.

"Beast Boy, are you a peeping tom?" Happy asked from out of nowhere. All the other emotions started to crack up in laughter. Sometimes Happy could embarrass a person, even when she didn't know she was doing it.


Beast Boy wasn't an idiot, though many people would say otherwise. He had known that they were just trying to get rid of him. He especially figured it out when he got there and the whole y place was empty. Not to mention they had never told him exactly what they wanted him to be looking for.

He had decided to go and see for him self on what they were talking about. Once he heard their voices he immediately stopped short. Now he would be able to figure out why they wanted him gone so impatiently. It was Affection's voice he heard first…

"… embarrassed Raven for the rest of her life. Or until she finally gets some sense to admit the truth." Affection was obviously mumbling the last part but again, thanks to Beast Boy's wonderful ears, he heard every last word.

"Get to the point." Raven said, her voice slow and dangerous. Beast Boy shivered, glad for a change that it wasn't his voice that was making her so angry.

"Right, well she told me that maybe the best way for you to get rid of your hiccups, would be for you…"

"To be scared again!" Happy piped from out of no where. Beast Boy was suddenly glad to hear her voice. He had been a little worried that Affection was still covering her mouth.

"That's amazing." A voice spoke up for the first time. Beast Boy had a sneaking feeling that it had to be Wisdom's. She hadn't spoken since he had been around her. "I can't believe the two of you thought of that before me."

"Gee, thanks, I think." Affection said, chuckling.

"Ah, but why did Beast Boy have to leave." Timid asked, barely above a whisper. Beast Boy blinked, he had been thinking the exact same thing.

Suddenly he had the sneaky feeling of somebody watching him.

Beast Boy quickly turned around, but no one was there. He looked left and right, but there was still no one around to look at him. Sighing, he turned around to listen to the conversation again.

"Yeah, why did Beast Boy have to leave?" Rude asked. Beast Boy leaned forward a little. The tension was high all around him, soon he'd find out the answer. Then…

"Eep!" Beast Boy strangled his yell and turned around to see a raven at his feet. It stared at him and then began to peck at his feet. Beast Boy rushed backwards but stumbled on a rock and fell. So much for finding out why he was sent away.

"Beast Boy, do you think you'll be able to not get to any more trouble if I go and speak with Affection alone?" Raven asked, slightly glaring at him. He only sweat dropped. Great, he's gone for what, a minute, and all ready he's on her bad side again.

Beast Boy nodded and watched as the two Ravens slowly walked away. Really, could his day get any worse?

"Beast Boy, are you a peeping tom?" Happy asked from out of nowhere. All the other emotions started laugh. Yep, Beast Boy had been wrong. Things could get worse.


Everyone had settled down once Raven and Affection had gotten back. After that, the meeting itself only lasted a few more minutes. Everyone had come to the conclusion that the only way to get rid of Raven's hiccups…was to scare them out of her. The only problem now, was how to do that.

Affection and Happy were whispering amongst each other. Knowledge had somehow gotten her hands on a book and was looking something up, and Wisdom was reading over her shoulder. Rude was just ignoring everyone else, while Timid seemed to be thinking to herself. Raven was also thinking but not about hiccups. She was thinking about her and Affection's earlier conversation.

Start of theirConversation:

"So why did Beast Boy have to leave?" Raven asked, as soon as they were a good distance away from the others.

"The thing that Happy was going to tell you…It had a lot to do with Beast Boy." Affection said while she pretended to be engrossed with the ground.

"Beast Boy?" Raven asked, unsure on where their conversation was heading.

"Yes, Beast Boy." Affection stated patiently, as if she were teaching a five year old how to ride a bike. "As much as you like to admit it, Beast Boy is just as much a part of us as we are of him." She gave Raven a knowing look, which threw her off more.

"I have no idea what you're talking about. Now will you stop beating around the bush and tell me what the hell I have to do to get rid of these damn hiccups!" Raven stared, seething at her, while Affection only sweat dropped.

Neither of the two Ravens seemed to notice the raven that had scared Beast Boy so much was standing not too far from them. Its head was tipped to one side and it seemed to flutter its wings in surprise, and then happiness. Then, without being noticed, it slipped out of everyone's thoughts, and flew back to where it had come from.

End of Conversation

"I've got it!" Beast Boy yelled triumphantly, startling Raven out of her thoughts. "Okay, plug your ears with your index fingers. Then plug your nose with your pinkies. Then hold your breath for twenty seconds." He nodded his head encouragingly. Raven and all her emotions stared at him.

"I am not doing that." Raven said sternly.

"Oh come on, it won't hurt." Beast Boy pleaded, turning into a cat.

"Kitty!" Happy exclaimed. She ran forward and hugged the green cat to her chest. She swung back and forth while cooing at Beast Boy.Meanwhile, Raven stood in shock and anger. Affection, seeingthis, quickly ran to Happy's rescue.

"Happy, put Beast Boy down, you're going to strangle him." Happy sweat dropped and did as she was told. She backed away, and Beast Boy turned back to his normal self; he was a slightly bluer color, but all and all he looked okay.

"Please Raven?" He asked scooting away from Happy and giving Raven puppy dog eyes…without turning into one. Raven gave a sigh as if she were about to do the most disgusting thing she could think of, and did what he asked. Beast Boy counted and when he reached twenty he nodded his head. Raven slowly let go of her breath.

"Are they gone?" Happy asked excitedly. Raven shrugged and for a moment everyone was silent.

"Hiccup!" Everyone fell over while Beast Boy, against his will, was turned into a salmon. He flipped around a moment and then turned back to himself.

"Why does everyone seem to deem it fit to suffocate me today?" Beast Boy half asked and half yelled. Everyone just stood up and sweat dropped.

"Well, Beast Boy's no longer allowed to give us any more ideas." Rude said ignoring the outraged look Beast Boy had on his face.

"I've got an idea." Wisdom spoke up. Everyone turned around to face her. "Why don't we have Beast Boy try and scare Raven." The others nodded in agreement. That sounded like it might work.

"How do you want me to do that?" Beast Boyasked, trying to think of an idea that would scare Raven.

Suddenly a shriek pierced the air. Looking around, they realized Timid was screaming. Beast Boy suddenly ran up to her and grabbed her by the shoulders. She didn't quit screaming so he shook her, which threw her out of her spell.

"Timid, Timid, what's wrong?" Happy asked running up to the two. Timid didn't say anything, she was quivering in Beast Boy's arms but wasn't looking at him, but past him. Everyone turned in that direction.

Rage stood there. She was still twenty times as tall as the other Raven's and she had a wide grin across her face. She looked as if Christmashad come early. On her shoulder sat a fat black raven.

"I know your little secret Raven." She taunted. Her voice was oddly distorted and it sounded more like a man's then the actual Raven.

"Secret?" Affection whispered. Her eyes widened and she turned to see that Raven was glaring at Rage.

"You know, a little birdie told me." Beast Boy's eyes widened. The raven on Rage's shoulder. It had been some sort of spy. He abruptly let go of Timid's shoulders and turned to look angrily at Rage. No, not Rage, Trigon. He would pay dearly for what he did to Rage…and Raven.

"I won't allow you to even carry out that theory of yours Raven." Rage said, laughing as if this was all a game. "You can try and try, but it'll never happen." She roared into laughter, she then quickly shot out a yellowish orange laser-like beam. Everyone jumped away in time.

"Hurry Raven, go and finda way to get rid of your hiccups. We'll try to hold her off as long as we can." Knowledge said throwing an arm behind her, as if she were pushing them farther away.

"No, we won't leave you guys to fight by your selves." Beast Boy yelled watching as Timid tried to hide behind a rock while Courage ran forward, towards Trigon.

"You have to Beast Boy!" Courage yelled. "If Raven can't get rid of her hiccups then we won't be able to defeat Trigon." She dodged one of Trigon's laser's and ran closer, trying to get a good shot at Rage.

Raven ran over to Beast Boy and grabbed him. Then she transported them a good distance from the battlefield, though you could still see the fight, they wouldn't be hurt if things got too much out of control. Raven panted slightly and leaned heavily against Beast Boy.

"Raven you shouldn't have done that." He said, softly chiding her. "Now you look like you can barely stand on your own two feet."

"I'm fine." She said roughly, and she pushed her self hard away from him. She wobbled a bit but stood on her own.

"What was Rage talking about Raven?" Beast Boy asked, ignoring the hurt in his heart.

"What are you talking about?" She questioned, avoiding his eyes and instead watching the fight between Trigon and her emotions.

"The secret, Raven. She was talking about how some little secret that wouldn't work." He said, somberly.

Raven's eyes fell to the ground. She couldn't tell him. No matter what, she wouldn't tell him. If what Affection had said did happen…she could destroy the city without a thought. She could kill humanity. Everything would be ruined if she gave in. She couldn't do that. She wouldn't, but Beast Boy was still waiting for an answer.

"Raven?" Beast Boy whispered, realizing that she was having and inside conversation with her self.

"She didn't mean anything by it." Raven yelled, throwing her hands over her ears to block out Beast Boy's voice. She closed her eyes and waited for Beast Boy to let it dropInstead, she felt his arms envelop her. Pulling back slightly in alarm, all she could do was stare at Beast Boy in wonder.

His own eyes were wide with realization. He didn't know what had came over him, but all he wanted to do at that one moment was hold Raven and let her know that she was safe.

Raven felt like she wanted to slap him. She wanted to pull away, slap him, and then run for her life. But she couldn't bring her self to do either.

She knew the consequences, she knew what would happen and yet she still let him hold her. Her eyes began to burn and she longed to rub them, but Beast Boy still had a hold on her, and she definitely did not want to break that connection.

"I know what happened between you and Malichor was a horrible thing." He said staring sadly at her. "I know it really hurt you and your emotions."

Her eyes widened slightly at his sudden tender moment. Was she hearing all right?

"Affection told me that you're scared to be loved again." Beast Boy said kindly.

Raven's eyes widened and she threw a heated glare in the direction of the fighting emotion.

"I promise I'll never do that to you." Beast Boy all but whispered. Raven's mouth fell agape. What did he just say?

"I know that you must have thought I was in love with Terra." Beast Boy stated his eyes slightly glazed over. "But all that was…" He groped for a work, "was puppy love." He dropped his hands lower until they reached her waist.

"I could never love anyone as much as I love you." He stated.

Raven's eyes grew larger than dinner plates. All she wanted to do was run. She started to struggle in his grasp, but somehow he expected this and only tightened his grip.

"Oh, no you don't. You aren't leaving until I get a response." He said, a hint of laughter in his voice.

"Beast Boy you'd have better let me go or I'll…" She didn't get to finish as he abruptly laughed in her face.

She then struggled harder. She was scared. She couldn't let this happen. She pressed with all her might against his chest which, sadly she admitted to her self, was fairly well toned.

"Beast Boy I swear…" But she never got to finish. She felt it coming. It reminded her distantly of a swarm of bee's in the middle of her stomach, and they somehow wanted to come out.

Her eyes widened and her face, once again, turned paler then it should've been. Beast Boy knew immediately about what was to happen. They both turned and looked over at the fighting emotions.

Courage looked to be injured but she was still fighting. Wisdom and Knowledge were trying to work together but Rage seemed to know exactly what they were planning. Rude was using telekinesis, and was picking up large rocks and throwing them and Rage but it seemed as nothing was harming her.

Happy and Affection seemed to be dancing around Rage, trying to get her attention away from the others. Even small, frightened Timid was fighting. Beast Boy could almost make out the tears on her cheeks.

Raven couldn't help but feel fear enter her. She couldn't let these hiccups continue, but if she did what Affection told her to…she'd be leading on Beast Boy and could end up flattening the city. She could feel the hiccup get closer and closer to her mouth. What should she do?

Beast Boy decided for her.

He slowly bent his head at an angle and stopped watching her reaction. She hadn't yet noticed. Well that was a good thing for him, because once she came to her senses, she would kill him.

Then without a second thought, he leant forward, and captured her lips with his.

Raven felt a tingling feeling. She turned her head to face Beast Boy's and at that precise moment they're lips met. Raven felt fear well up into her. Flashes of what she could do and what she might have already done slipped though her head.

But then, Beast Boy slowly ran his tongue along her bottom lip and that thought was whipped out of her mind. All she could now focus on was Beast Boy's wonderfully soft lips, and the way he kissed her. It was as if he truly meant that he was in love with her.

He then gently pulled away from her. Her eyes stayed closed and she was now relaxed in his hold.

"I'll never hurt you." He whispered.

Raven's eyes shot open, looking into Beast Boy's own green ones. Her eyes began to brim with tears. For now she would believe him. Because he wasn't Malichor, he was Beast Boy.

He was her Beast Boy.
