She melted right into the kiss, deepening it, and no one else in the world was there. No one else, of course, except Malchior.
Normal POV
The two titans pulled apart. "Raven!" roared Malchior. His face was twisted into a fuming snarl, hands curled into shaking fists. He began to charge towards Raven and Beast Boy, rage written all over his face. He lunged forward and stretched his hand out, a gleaming red beam shooting out of his palm. It raced ahead and came dangerously close to hitting BB's face, but he was saved from the beam of death by Raven, who had shoved him out of the way, forcing him to land with a thud on the stone floor. "RAVEN!" Beast Boy screamed, as the beam collided with the dark girl. He stood up swiftly and rushed towards the cloud of smoke. To his relief, Raven was shielded under a dome of her own black magic; she covered her face with her hands. The dome receded and Raven stumbled backwards, landing in the changeling's strong arms. She rubbed her temples for a moment and then stood up, waiting for the smoke to clear.
She and BB watched Malchior walk toward them with a menacing glare on his face, his fists glowing with the red beams of energy.
"Raven! Get behind me!" Beast Boy ordered, giving her a hard stare. "No! I won't let you get hurt again!" she pleaded. The changeling squeezed her hand in reassurance and stood in front of her, preparing for the worst. But the worst never came…and neither did death. Instead, Malchior pointed at Raven and her body seized up, her outline glowing a light blue. Her muscles made her move reluctantly towards her evil husband, as much as she struggled and tried to fight the impulse. "Raven! What are you doing?" Beast Boy asked, grabbing for her wrist. As he did, Raven's outline glowed a brighter blue, making it so that her teammate couldn't stop her, or even touch her for that matter.
The telekinetic looked fearfully at her glowing body, and she was forcefully pulled to her husband's grip.
Beast Boy tried to move. He had to stop Malchior from controlling her. He tried to move, he really did, but as he looked down, he noticed that his feet were stuck to the floor. Malchior didn't talk as he looked at the shape-shifter's shocked reaction. He just smirked evilly, as he held Raven in his arms as tears streamed down her face. He spun her around by her shoulders and tilted her chin up as Beast Boy watched in horror.
"My sweet Raven," he growled. "Don't you get it? You can't resist me."
With that said, the wizard/dragon's hand turned a steel-hot white color. Raven's eyes widened. The last time Malchior had used that white hand thing on her, she woke up in the morning not knowing why she was in her chamber with her hair and clothes disheveled, all memory lost of the night before. Nine months later she gave birth to Angel, and she knew she had been brain washed that night (eww, where did that nasty little piece of story come from? Idiot brain.). "NO!" Raven shrieked, trying to pull herself away from her twisted husband. Struggle as she might, the white magic zapped her squarely in the forehead, and her real self…her common sense…was pushed to the back of her mind. (And her eyes were glazed over as well)
"RAVEN! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" The changeling's shriek (Man. The people in the castle must think screaming and clouds of smoke are part of every day life or something). Raven couldn't recognize it. It was just another scream, something she would be used to.
"Why Raven," said Malchior mischievously. "Aren't you going to show you're little friend what you think of me?" Raven looked to Beast Boy. "My friend? I have no memory of him," she said. Beast Boy's eyes widened. She didn't remember him. "But I certainly have memory of you," she purred, wrapping her arms around Malchior's neck. "Ah, where were we?" the wizard asked, smirking at Beast Boy, but keeping one eye on the brain-washed Raven at the same time. "I think I know," said Raven seductively, placing her mouth on top of Malchior's. (A/N: gags)
Beast Boy ground his teeth together and his hands clenched into fists.
So, said a voice in his head. You're just gonna stand there and watch that monster take your woman? You know that you want to tear him into little pieces. After all, he's got his lips all over her. Doesn't that make you angry?
It did make him angry. That little voice was right.
In a scream of rage, Beast Boy got his legs un-stuck and charged at Malchior, morphing into a lion. He leapt at the wizard and extracted one of his claws ready to rip the wizard to shreds, when he was suddenly shoved to the floor. Shaking his head to get the circulation flowing again, he looked up and saw that Raven was standing in front of Malchior with her hands glowing black.
"You keep away from him," she growled at Beast Boy, balling her hands into fists. "Raven! What are you doing?" BB yelled to her, his voice a mixture of confusion and rage. "Protecting my husband," she hissed, an orb of black magic forming in her fists. She raised her arms and charged at the changeling, attempting to nail him with her magic of doom. "AHHHHHHHHH!" screamed the changeling, Raven's powers missing him by a hair. He dove for the ground as Raven threw another ball of magic at him, again barely missing him. He smashed head first in to the stone wall and wobbled on his feet as he tried unsuccessfully to stand. His inability to stand gave Raven the upper hand as she raised her right fist and threw her magic ball thing whatever at the shape-shifter, this time nailing him straight in the chest. Beast Boy crumbled to the ground, unconsciousness threatening to take over.
When the changeling awoke, he was surprised to find himself chained to a stone wall that was located for some weird reason in the dining hall. "Comfy?" asked a voice. Beast Boy looked down to see Malchior standing there with a big smirk on his face. "Oh yeah, I'm just peachy. Could you make these chains any tighter?" he said sarcastically. "Well, that could be arranged," Malchior said thoughtfully, stroking his chin. "But right now, you have a visitor. Raven?" The wizard stepped aside to reveal Raven. Instead of her regular castle attire, (which was a black dress with blue thread and a royal blue headdress. Oh crud, I forgot to mention that, didn't I?) she was wearing a crimson red dress that went past her ankles and flared out at the bottom. The sleeves ended at the tip of her shoulders and were in the shape of flames tinted with orange.
"Well," she hissed. "If it isn't the shape-shifter, the one who tried to destroy my husband. I suppose all actions have to have an award, so…"
To the shape-shifters horror, Raven pulled out a longbow (how did that get there?) and aimed it at his heart.
"Raven…" Beast Boy murmured, his eyes wide. "Say goodbye," she muttered, and drew back the string (anybody know what that string on the bow is called? Anyone?). "RAVEN! STOP! YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING! MALCHIOR IS CONTROLLING YOU'RE MIND!" the changeling shouted, struggling through his chains. "Quit badgering me with your lies!" Raven was ready to let go of the arrow and watch it plunge into the changeling's heart (she's still suffering to Malchior's mind control, remember?) when…
"Mama? What's happening?" That voice. Raven recognized it. "Mama, why are you holding that bow?"
Raven's eyes grew wide and her hands trembled, dropping the longbow. Her eyes lost the glazed look to them, and she turned around to see a terrified Angel standing in the doorway. "Angel," she murmured, rushing to her daughter and picking her up. "Oh, what have I done?" Raven cried as she turned to Beast Boy, and then to Malchior. "Raven," Malchior growled. "Pick up that bow right now!"
Raven glared at him and clutched Angel tighter. "No," she said flatly and turned to Beast Boy. Her hand began to glow black and undid the chains around the shape-shifters wrists and ankles. It seemed that everything was going to be alright for the time being, but Malchior didn't give up that easily. No, he had more tricks up his evil sleeve.
He stooped down onto his knees and clutched his hands together. His body began to shudder violently, gigantic purple wings sprouting from his back. His skin turned scaly and mauve, and claws emerged from his hands and feet, along with the tail that came out of his…tailbone. His eyes were no longer their icy blue color, but a bloody crimson. With a raucous roar, Malchior's true self was revealed.
Gaspeth! What will happen next? Review and we'll find out, won't we? YESSSSSSSSSSSS!
