VERY IMPORTANT NOTE! Some evlish this chapter looks like normal words but are not. The pronunciation of the word will be in ( ) next to it.
Mîr missed dinner and luckily no-one worried. BeastBoy however was ignoring all his friends and ate in his room, only returning while the other titans ate to play video games.
"He seems quite mad." Star said placing her dish in the sink. Raven rolled her eyes and went to sit and read. "What troubles him?" Star continued sitting next to Robin.
"He's still pretty upset about Terra I suppose." He said.
"We all miss her." Cy said over by the sink. "That doesn't give him permission to mope around though and be a snot to Mîr." Star nodded her head but looked over to the spot where he was gaming. She sighed and stood.
"It is late." She said. "I will see you all tomorrow." She waved goodnight and left the room. Cy finished the dishes and went to play with BB; Robin looked over and saw Raven looking slightly worried.
"Raven?" He said walking over to her. "Is something wrong?" She was looking at a scroll that had what the Boy Wonder assumed to be evlish written on it. Raven looked up at him and motioned for him to sit.
"I was just looking over this." She said handing it to him. She pointed to a large drawing in the center of the scroll.
"This looks Mîr's necklace." He said. Indeed it did. The necklace Starfire had marveled over was quite odd. It was a silver dragon claw that that grasped a smokey white stone. This drawing looked like it a lot but had some strong differences. This necklace seemed to have a blood-red stone, not a white one, and there where markings all over it.
"I hope its not." Raven said taking back the paper. "This scroll depicts this necklace to be one of the most dangerous weapons to ever be forged, its powers are unknown it was said to be lost over 500 years ago." She pointed to some of the evlish. "There, it says: Sereg sarn en man (Q, mahn) aha (Q, ah-hah), ross (rohss)nwalme (Q, nwahl-may)
on ruth. Dagor mae slime maethor." She looked up at Robin to see him really confused. She sighed and translated. "Blood stone of pure rage, rain torment on anger. Battle well moonlight warriors." She sighed as she finished.
"What is that supposed to mean?" Robin asked as she rolled the scroll back up.
"My guess is that it is a riddle to how the necklace works." She said placing the scroll aside. "There is a lot more evlish on this I can't read; I'll have to ask Mîr tomorrow if she'll translate it for me." She looked over at the two gamers, BeastBoy doing a victory dance due to his latest victory. She smiled and shook her head, then stood taking the scroll. "I'm turning in early tonight. See you tomorrow." She turned and left. The inscription on the scroll troubled Robin. What if there was more to this thing thing that met the eye.
The next morning Starfire went to wake her new friend. She smiled happily as she floated down the hallway towards her room. "Mîr" She called happily. "Please awaken friend! It is morning and it is…" She opened the door to see that Mîr was clearly not there. "Friend?" She said again looking around. All her things seemed to be I there correct spot but then Star noticed the window. It was open; she floated over to it and gasped. There was a small pool of blood on the rim and it was slowly flowing down the wall.
Star ran down the hallway towards the living room where the rest of the titans where. She came screaming into the room, causing all her friends to jump. They all came over and took her over to the couch where they sat and listened to her story. "Mîr is not in her room, but I fear she is horribly injured!" She cried on Robin shoulder.
"What makes you think that Star?" Cy said beside her.
"There is blood on the window sill!" She cried. The titans looked around in shock and all rushed to Mîr's room. They all gasped when they opened the door. There sat Mîr on her bed, not a scratch on her. "Friend!" Star cried as she rushed to there side. "You are uninjured?" She said fling in circles around her, looking for injures. Mîr looked horribly confused.
"Um Starfire I'm fine." She said nervously, pulling her right handed sleeve over her wrist. "Did I miss something?" She said looking at the other titans.
"Star said she saw blood on your window and was worried you where hurt." Cy said going over to the window.
"Oh I just cut myself." Mîr said showing a small cut on her hand. "I'm fine though." Cy nodded at Robin to confirm that the window was clean and he and the Boy Wonder left. Raven looked at Mîr and walked over to her.
"Mîr," She said. "I have some evlish scrolls I need translated. Would you mind helping me?"
"No not at all." Mîr said. "Where are they?" A few minutes later Starfire, Raven and Mîr where all standing outside Ravens room, Cy had warned her that Raven was very particular about who went in her room and it was unlikely that she would she the inside of it. Raven opened the door and headed in, Star behind her. Mîr stood planted outside, not wanting to get Raven angry. Starfire noticed this very quickly and tapped raven on her arm.
"Friend Mîr, why do you not follow?" She said.
"Well, um, I'm just respecting Rae's privacy." Mîr said.
"It's ok." Raven said. "You can come in." Mîr slowly walked into the room, looking around in amusement.
"Sorry, it's kinda dark." Raven said referring to the small amount of lighting. She walking over to a chest of scrolls and took out a key to open it.
"No, it's very nice." Mîr complimented. "I fell more comfortable in the dark anyways. Unless I'm in the middle of no-where and am lost." Ravens smiled at the joke. She unlocked the chest and began to pick out a select few.
"Mîr," Star began. "We are to do the 'training' today. Would you wish to join us?" Mîr's heart leaped at the thought of training with the titans. All the things she could learn all the things she could teach them. But she remembered what her purpose was…
"I'm not to sure that would be a good idea Star." She said sadly. "I should be packing and planning where I should be going next…" Star's head slumped over and she nodded. Raven soon came over with her hands full of scrolls, she lead the too into the living room where they found all the boys playing a new game. The girls all sat down as Raven began to organize the scrolls. "Hay Star," Mîr began. "You might find this boring soo…" Star nodded her head in understanding and flew over to the couch to watch.
"Ok, here." Raven said handing her a small parchment. "There are two words I'm confused on. Astaldo (Q, ah-stahl-doh), and Avari (Q, ah-var-ee)." Mîr took the parchment and looked it over.
"Well, Astaldo means Valiant and Avari means unwilling." Raven nodded her head and continued threw the scrolls for 30 more minutes before both girls where tired and bored. Both where so busy for the last 2 minutes that they didn't see Robin walk up in front of them.
"Raven." He said suddenly causing booth girls to jump. "Sorry, um, its time to go train." He reminded. She nodded her head and her and Mîr began to pick up scrolls. It took them awhile before all where all rolled up and put back in there propose places in Raven's room.
"Thanks again." Raven said as she locked the chest. Mîr yawned and stretched.
"No prob." She said. She headed for the door when Robin stopped her.
"Mîr, would you like to come and train some today? I would like to see what your powers can do." He said. She smiled evilly and for some reasoned nodded yes…
