Chapter 12: War of a Demon!
The early morning sun rose with a calming light, while the ocean waved its cheery greeting to the world. Birds paraded with joy, summoning a beautiful serenade of music. A young woman lay nestled within her sheet, breathing to her own rhythmic sound. Stirring, the girl stretched her arms above her head.
"Get up!" Raven growled, shoving her green fiancé across the bed. Groaning, Beast Boy immediately hopped out of the comforting abode. Glancing at the clock, Beast boy glared at the flashing red light. It was only 5 o'clock; Raven knew that he didn't get out of bed that early!
"S'up?" Beast Boy questioned, giving his fuming fiancé a confused look. Crossing her arms and glaring, Raven began to wake the other Titans. Grumbling, the Titans crawled out of their homestead. The beds gave groans of protest, as the team pulled themselves onto the floor. Still giving Raven a curious look, Beast Boy's memory finally served a purpose.
"I have to get ready!" Beast Boy squealed, lunging at the closet. Flinging the door of the closet open, Beast Boy hurled his sabotaged clothes out of its safety box.
"It took you long enough to remember, your own wedding!" Raven scowled, marching over to the bathroom door. Her beautiful white dress hung on a hanger, begging her for acceptance. Pulling her brand new dress off the hook, Raven almost allowed herself to smile. Almost.
"Get a move on!" Raven cried, staring at the other Titans. Robin appeared to be awake, but Cyborg wore a look of the utmost fatigue. Rushing into the bathroom, Raven locked the door behind her. The other Titans began to prepare for the wedding, as well.
Eight Hours Later...
The reception had gone as planned; thus, Raven was extremely pleased. Sitting upon a flat stool, Raven watched her friends dance upon the sandy floor. Raven wasn't sure that people would like the overly sandy floor, but Beast Boy had remained persistent. Sipping a glass of bubbly champagne, Raven saw Beast Boy begin to dance with a giggly blonde. The girl had arrived with Karen, and Raven automatically assumed that they were close friends. Scowling, Raven turned herself away from the gory sight.
"Hey." Karen greeted, catching Raven's eye. Surprisingly, Karen actually seemed fairly upset about something.
"Hello." Raven mumbled, feeling a twinge of anger. Because of Karen, Beast Boy had his arms around a the blonde girl.
"Your jealous." Karen smirked, ignoring the scowl that was implanted on Raven Roth's facial features. The scowl deepened, causing Karen's smile to widen.
"Don't be ridiculous." Raven said maliciously, as her eyebrow twitched frighteningly.
"Her name's Christina. We used to be best friends, but now she has a habit of stealing boyfriends." Karen stated, fixing her dress. Ignoring Karen, Raven tried to hide the resentment she was feeling. The blonde girl's expensive clothing shimmered, and silver money clung to her upper breasts. Cursing the blonde, Raven turned her attention back to Karen.
"Have you seen Cyborg?" Karen questioned, giving a sad sigh. Sighing, Raven pointed towards Cyborg's metallic figure. Turning around, Raven saw Christina drag off a reluctant Beast Boy. Licking her lips, Raven tailed them. Hiding behind a stone cylinder, Raven made sure she was out of their view.
"I really should, be getting back to Raven." Beast Boy stuttered, as Christina wrapped her hands around his neck. Scooting away, Beast Boy attempted to struggle to his feet. Yanking him downward, Christina pressed forward.
"Don't you find me attractive?" Christina asked, smashing her lips against his. Yanking away, Beast Boy shoved the girl off of him. Wiping his mouth, he gave Christina a disgusted look. Raven felt four eyes creep upon her face; her self control had begun to slip.
"WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT? I'M MARRIED!" Beast Boy hollered, marching away. The blonde girl stared after him.
"This is war." Raven whispered, crackling her knuckles. Staring at Christina, a angry expression remained on her face. "You will pay."
Walking back towards that wedding party, Raven wandered across Beast Boy. His body lay curled in front of the ocean, and his face was buried in his hands. Sadly, Raven began to amble towards her green haired husband. Noticing her presence, Beast Boy jumped in surprise. Guilt crossed his face, and Raven watched him begin to stutter. A faint crash was heard in the distance, causing Raven to glance at the ocean guiltily.
"I…I have something to tell you." Beast Boy whimpered, keeping his eyes focused on the distant horizon.
"What?" Raven questioned, knowing exactly what he was going to say. The wind picked up, bowing the sand across the floor. The pollution in the sky caused the sun to have a eerie red glow, causing everything around them to be vibrant.
"Did you see that blonde girl?" Beast Boy questioned, his voice shaking like crazy.
"Yes." Raven said, fixing the hem of her dress. Its white texture had begun to turn yellow, and Raven wondered whether she should continue to stroll around in it.
"It was a accident… She kissed me! You have to understand, Rae! She kissed me! I would never leave you, and I would never cheat on you. I swear it!" Beast Boy stuttered, his voice growing purple from all the pressure. Pulling her dress underneath her, Raven placed her hand on Beast Boy's shaking shoulder. Giving her a pleading look, he clasps his hands together.
"Please… I need you to say something." Beast Boy cried, staring at Raven's pale face.
"I believe you." Raven whispered, as she squeezed his shoulder with more strength.
"You do." Beast Boy squeaked, his voice resonating surprise. The water continued to slosh upon the shore, making a cadenced noise.
"Yes." Raven whispered, not dwelling on her prolonged response. Leaning forward, Beast Boy wrapped his arms around Raven.
"Thank you." Beast Boy whispered, nuzzling Raven's purple hair. Allowing Beast Boy to engulf her in butterfly kisses, Raven leaned into his embrace.
"I appreciate your honesty." Raven whispered, feeling the familiar tingle in her stomach. Smiling, Beast Boy continued to stroke her purple hair. A rustle in the trees caused Raven to jerk around, and Raven realized that Christina was heading back to the party. Not noticing Raven's inattentiveness, Beast Boy continued to jabber.
"The wedding hasn't gone exactly as we planned. I'm sorry, Rae. I wanted to make everything perfect for you." Beast Boy said, staring at Raven unhappily.
"Yeah." Raven whispered, burying her head in Beast Boy shoulder. "Should we go back to the party?"
"I guess so." Beast Boy stated, hanging his head in guilt. Using her powers, Raven levitated to her feet. Grasping Raven's hand, she and Beast Boy trucked back to the wedding party. Reaching the party, Raven saw the blonde girl chatting with Karen.
"I'll be back." Raven whispered, kissing her husband goodbye. Glancing at Raven questionably, he watched Raven march off. He recognized the look on Raven's face, and he knew what it meant. He defiantly didn't like where this was going. Noticing Cyborg, Beast Boy marched over to his good friend. Sadly, Beast Boy hung his head in shame.
"What's wrong, grass stain? It's your wedding day!" Cyborg cried, as he gobbled down a platter of food.
"I don't want to talk about it." Beast Boy sighed, his chin sinking to his chest.
"Man! What did you do this time?" Cyborg questioned, as he appeared to be on the verge of hysterical laughter.
"I don't want to talk about it." Beast Boy repeated, taking a bite out of a ordure. His stomach lurched forward, and Beast Boy spit the food out of his mouth.
"Is Raven upset?" Cyborg asked, as he began to get more serious.
"I'm not sure. She didn't look surprised, when I told her about it." Beast Boy said, shaking his head in confusion.
"She probably already knew." Cyborg smirked, his eyes dancing. The floor shook, as the guests skipped on the dance floor. Realizing the truth of his statement, Beast Boy managed to allow his face to fall even farther. Cyborg's human eye dilated, while watching Karen dance in the sand. Her dark hair bounced maniacally, her eyes shown with the light of a thousand moons.
"Why don't you ask her to dance?" Beast Boy questioned, watching Cyborg's face. A empty filling engulfed Beast Boy's stomach, and he was dieing for Raven's company. Why did this have to happen, Beast Boy thought.
"Nah. Their isn't enough time." Cyborg stated, smirking happily. A look of confusion crossed Beast Boy's face, and the lights that illuminated the party began to shut down. Looking at the sky, Beast Boy noticed that the stars shown brightly in the sky,
"What is going on?" Beast Boy questioned, looking around at the exterior. The guests appeared to know what was going on, judging by the look on their knowing faces.
"You'll see." Cyborg laughed, as Beast Boy's eyes grew wide with shock.
