Ok I know I should continue with Colors of the Rainbow but…I just had to get this out…This is an Raven x Robin fic so you have been warned. Its set in Robins pov for now although I don't think I'll be continuing this…its up to you guys! This fic is based on the poem "Annabel Lee" by E.A.P enjoy!
I stood there in her dim lilted room…I couldn't comprehend the fact that she was gone-gone- and I never felt so utterly alone in my life. It was as if she had disappeared no trace of her existence was anywhere…except here. In her room and I had never felt anything else sooth me as her room did it was just filled with her essence filled with…Raven.
Although there was no sign on her I knew what had happened…The prophecy had been fulfilled Raven had carried he duties as the gem and suffered the dire consequences to save us…me. Somehow I couldn't believe she was gone… I was enraged and charged at Trigon gave him everything I had…we all did. It wasn't enough that was when we found out she had gifted us with a present a parting gift if you will her last effort at putting a stop to her father. Needless to say it worked but at one very big cost. We lost the bravest soul I would ever know a person so selfless and pure that she gave up her very essence just so we would have a chance. So here I am in her room at night while the world is sleeping peacefully in their homes. I look around the room and something comforts me…I smelled something…lavender I realized. HER smell…and I couldn't stop the tears from escaping my already blood shot eyes. I threw myself at her bed practically assaulting it. It was covered, smothered in her sweet smell that I just wanted to drown in it. As I hugged her pillow I felt something hard a book? I inspected it closer and realized it wasn't Ravens book but her diary. I raised shaky fingers at the clasp and it reviled beautiful cursive handwriting just like everything about her she was just simply beautiful. I flipped the pages to her last entry it read…
Dear, Journel
Today will most likely be my last entry. If anyone of my deer friends is reading this just know this I love you all…and I will miss you terribly. If only fate had seen things differently. Cyborg you were the big brother I never had I truly will miss helping you fix your baby but know that I will always love you big brother. Beast boy even if we have never really been that close you kinda grew on me…and I did like your jokes even if I never showed it. Star fire you were like a sister to me and I hope you don't cry to much just remember all the good times we had.
I love you all,
Raven Roth
I had to stop there and collect my thoughts. What about me? Did she not care to bud me farewell? After all we went through. I though she would atleast reflect some of my feeling but…. Than piece of purple paper with my name on it brought me out of my thoughts. It was folded and was serving as a book mark. I unfolded it slowly and it read…
Dearest Robin,
I'm so sorry I wasn't able to tell you sooner… but I love you. No not in the Cy kind of way or in the BB kind of way or even in the Star kind of way for that matter. The truth is I am in love with you-utterly. In every sense of the word and more -so much more-. In the way that I want to grow old with you, kiss you, murmur sweet nothings in your ear…comfort you as you would me. Life has a way of showing us the thing we desire most and then denies us the simple pleasure…
Annabel Lee
It was many and many a year ago,
In a kingdom by the sea,
That a maiden there lived whom you may know
By the name of Annabel Lee;
And this maiden she lived with no other thought
Than to love and be loved by me.
I was a child and she was a child
In this kingdom by the sea:
But we loved with a love that was more than love-
I and my Annabel Lee;
With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven
Coveted her and me.
And this was the reason that, long ago
In this kingdom by the sea,
A wind blew out of a cloud, chilling
My beautiful Annabel Lee;
So that her high-born kinsman came
And bore her away from me
To shut her up in a sepulcher
In this kingdom by the sea.
The angels, not half so happy in heaven,
Went envying her and me-
Yes!-that is the reason as all me know
In this kingdom by the sea
That the wind came out of the cloud by night,
Chilling and killing my Annabel Lee.
But our love it was stronger by far than the love
Of those who were older than we-
Of many far wiser than we-
And neither the angels in heaven above,
Nor the demons down under the sea,
Can ever dissever my soul from the soul
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee
For the moon never beams, without bringing me dreams
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;
And the stars never rise, but I feel the bright eyes
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;
And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side
Of my darling-my darling-my life and my bride,
In the sepulcher there by the sea,
In her tomb by the sounding sea.
By: Edgar Allan Poe
I know you can find a way, you always do. I hope to see you soon. And your right there is always something you can do.
With all the love that I posses,
I remain yours,
Your dark angel.
So she did love me. This alone brought a smile to my face. But what did she mean I would find a way? Was she trying to restore any hope to my broken heart? Right then I made my fallen angel a promise. I would forever look for a way to bring her back. I would not rest until I saw those big violet eyes of hers. Whatever it took…she was worth it.
To be continued…
Ok I don't know if this was any good…I hope it was so R&R guys! Tell me if I should continue.
Lots of love!
