WeaselChick: My brain returned to the topic at hand! Didn't take that long...Right. Now, this one starts after the Titans tell Drake all that has happened to them, cause I don't feel like writing all of that down again.
And now, some things about Drake: Drake wears a cape. It's orange, has a dragon on the right shoulder of it, and the dragon's fire wraps from his right shoulder all the way to his left shoulder and down his left arm. He also wears one of those things that Rorek(the magican from the show) wore. Yeah. He only wears that cloth thing up when he's fighting.
Drake sighed. There's so much they don't know about Thorn, he thought as he unlocked the eight locks on his door and opened it. I suppose I should start with him first.
The Titans entered the dark hallway in single file.
"Dude," Beast Boy said. "why is it so dark?"
"Sorry," Drake replied. "I believe that the kitchen light was what broke earlier." He reached beside the door and flipped a switch. "Better?"
Beast Boy nodded, and the Titans looked around his house. Seeing nothing in the are they were standing in, Robin and Cyborg walked into his study while Raven picked up the book he had gotten the spell from. Drake moved forward to take it from her, but Starfire and Beast Boy (he having nothing better to do) blocked his path.
"May I inquire as to why there is a shiny red diamond placed in the center of your forehead?" Starfire asked, hovering in front of him.
"It-" Drake began before he felt the side of his cape yanked to the right.
"Dude!" Beast Boy exclaimed. "This dragon looks so real!"
"Let go of my-" Drake was once again cut off.
Raven pushed Starfire aside and thrust an open book under his nose. Drake glanced over the open page and then looked at Raven. "Now, Raven-"
"Why," she snarled. "do you have my personal information and a page of pictures of me in this book?"
Drake sighed, snatched the book from her and flipped the page. "The same reason I have this man's personal information and a page of pictures of him," he told her, holding it out to her.
Starfire gasped. "That is friend Rorek!"
Drake looked at her. "You know him?" he asked, turning the book back to him. When she nodded, he sighed. "I guess I shall have to wait to tell you about Thorn. For now, I suppose I should tell you about myself, yes?"
Robin heard his remark about Thorn, and pulled Cyborg out of the study. "What do you know about Thorn?" he asked Drake.
"Later," Drake said, closing his book and handing it to Raven. "I shall tell you when the young Rorek is here. And no more questions," he added before Beast Boy could ask another question. "Now go sit in my dinning room. I have six extra chairs in there, and I believe my food is done." Just as he said this, his stove beeped.
"How did you-" Beast Boy began, before Drake pushed him through the kitchen.
"Just sit down, no one ask me any questions until I am finished eating, and Raven, could you put that book on the bookshelf behind you?" Drake told them, opening the stove.
The Titans, except Raven, looked at each other, then seated themselves at his table while he ate standing up, his back facing them.
"Now," Drake said after five minutes, turning to face them. "I suppose I should start with Starfire's question." He paused, and thought, red magic enveloping his hood and pulling it off of his head as he did.
"Dude!" Beast Boy said. "You have powers like Raven!"
Drake closed his eyes and gritted his teeth together as the red diamond on his forehead glowed brighter. He took a deep breath, then opened them again. "Anyway, I am three-quarters demon. My father was a full demon; my mother a half-demon. The diamond on my forehead houses my father, who is very powerful and would kill me in an instant if anyone was to set him loose, and he gives me my powers and my health, for I am somewhere around 5000 years old. That is probably the most important thing you should know about me. Oh, and my powers tend to go haywire sometimes. Actually, quite often. But I am learning to control it, so it's not as bad as it used to be. And, my magic is so powerful that I can't show any emotion. If I do, something will explode."
"Man," Beast Boy muttered. "you're weirder than Raven."
Drake nodded. "Yes. By a lot. Anymore questions?"
"Why is this book entitled 'Brother No More'?" Raven asked, turning the book to face him.
"It's a book full of spells of how to revive lost brothers," Drake explained. "I was using it to try and restore my brother for the sixteenth time. Every time I try to, it doesn't work. Of course, it could be that hewas killed by Malchior," he added in aftertone.
"Malchior?" Robin asked.
"You mean-" Cyborg began.
"Yes, my brother is the great magician Rorek," Drake said impatiently. "I am his older brother, now can we please continue on to something else?"
"Rorek is your brother?" Robin repeated.
Drake shut his eyes again as he began to feel anger filling him. "Yes," he muttered. "I've already said that, so-" He stopped, feeling his power starting to overwhelm him. "Leave," he told the Titans. "Now."
"But-" Robin began.
"Now!" Drake said angrily. "Leave now!" He opened his eyes, which had turned from silver to red, and his red magic consumed them all and transported them outside. Drake dropped to his knees as soon as they were gone and put his hands to his throbbing head. Father's trying to break loose, he realized, running a finger across the diamond. It was shaking and generating more power than he could withstand. He shut his eyes when it became to much for him to hold back.
----------------------
Raven watched as Drake's house began to shake, and she immediately put up a shield around her and the other Titans.
Drake's red magic broke through the walls of his house and his roof, blasting up into the air before forming into a monterous fire-breathing dragon. Giant wings spread from its back and a long tail twirled through the air. It roared, turned its dark red eyes to the Titans, then shrunk back down into the broken home.
Raven let down her shield and the Titans moved quickly over the rubble to find a shaking Drake sitting on his knees where his dinning room used to be.
"Drake," Robin said, concerned. "Are you okay?"
Drake nodded. "That," he said, looking up at them. "is what happens when my power goes haywire or gets to strong for me to hold back." He struggled to his feet, with some help from Cyborg, and eyed the Titans. "It was in the form of a dragon because that is the form that my father chooses to use, and also because I am able to shape-shift into any species of dragon I wish to."
Beast Boy's eyes lit up. "Really? Can you do it now?"
Drake shook his head. "No. I'm to worn out to show you what my dragon form looks like. You remember how you said the dragon on my cape looks real?"
Beast Boy nodded. "Well, that's what I look like in dragon form. Now that my house is destroyed, may I live with you?"
Robin nodded. "Sure. We could use all the help we can get."
Starfire grinned and flew towards Drake, stopping just short of him. "This is most glorious!" she exclaimed happily. "A new friend is always welcome!"
Drake eyed her. "You're resisting an urge to hug me, aren't you?"
Starfire grin turned sheepish. "I shall hug you later, when you are not as 'worn out' as you say you are right now."
Drake nodded. "All right then. Can we go now? I feel faint."
Cyborg nodded and picked him up by his cape's hood. "No problem," he said, carrying him out to the T-Car. "You can relax in my baby. Just as long as you don't drool on her seats."
Drake stared, confused, as Cyborg tossed him gently into the backseat of the T-Car. "That isn't quite what I-"
"Relax!" Cyborg told him, climbling into the front seat. "Raven can get herself back home with her magic, can't ya, Raven?"
Raven sighed, rolled her eyes, and disappeared in her raven form as the other Titans climbed in.
WeaselChick: Ain't Cy nice? Just picks him up and throws him in the car. In case anyone didn't notice, Star and Cy are the hardest ones of the Titans for me to portray. Well, if you didn't notice, you know now. I have to be very careful when I write Star's lines to make sure I don't make her sound non-Starish. Enough of my ranting! Reviews and things!
