I'm baaack.

Thank you to all those who have reviewed. I got three for my last chapter. Thanks to twilightdemon and random girl. To Clown-less Dreamer: Raven is several years younger. Experiences in her future will harden her.

I obviously don't own Teen Titans. If I did I wouldn't be writing here and I wouldn't be canceling after the show after this season. Yes you heard me they're canceling it. Nooooooooooooo.

Here's something that needs to be remembered by all. From now on I will refer to all characters by there age on Astralis. 1000 earth years 1 Astralis year. If I say someone is 15, they're 15000 earth years. If they came from Earth then they are aged by earth years. That is, all my original characters and Raven are measured in Astralis years while the Titans and other earthlings are measured in earth years. Review and tell me if there is confusion.

Now, on to the story.

RAVENANDBEASTBOYFOREVER

Memories of Astralis: Part 2

Raven was in a state of shock. Once again, Sally had turned her life upside down. she was currently being dragged down a hall by said person off to meet, well, she didn't know. Sally dragged her down the hall and turned down another. This one had picture of previous Star Queens, Raven noted absently. Sally continued to drag a reluctant Raven down the hall.

They stopped at a door midway down the hall. There Sally turned to Raven. "Okay I know this is a lot to happen to you in one day. I only ask you to do this one last thing. This is the team rec room. Everyone is in there, including your new part time charge. I'm going to introduce you to them and them to you. You can stay after that or I can show you to your new dorm. You'll share it with me." Sally looked at Raven to see if she was holding up.

"I'll be okay." Raven spoke in her monotone, trying to keep cool. Then it hit her. "my new charge! You mean the Star Princess is in there?"

"yeah she's in there, along with her little brother. Don't worry, they're just like other teens our age. Except for Helios having a horn in the middle of his head."

Before Raven could say anything else, Sally knocked once on the door and then opened it. The room was fairly large and held a pool table, a few couches and a TV. ( a/n yes this is supposed to be thousands of years ago but lets say they were much more advanced.)

9 teens were scattered around the room. Raven recognized Damean and the others that she had met at Sally's house. There were also 4 young women and a young man that she did not know. Damean was playing pool with the other boy while Jenna and two of the other girls watched. The curly haired girl along with Judeth and one of the other girls were reading. Jen was watching the TV. They all looked up when Sally and Raven entered.

"Everybody who doesn't know, this is Raven. She's going to be joining the team." There were a number of hellos and nods. "When I introduce you who Raven doesn't know, nod, wave, do something so that Raven sees who you are. Over there in purple with the really long black hair is Trisha, codename Pluto." The tall fair skinned girl reading nodded. "Watching the pool game is Michelle, codename Neptune in blue with the short straight brown hair along with her cousin Maura, codename Uranus with the really short blond hair." The two girls, both medium height and lanky nodded as they were introduced. "Prince Helios is over there with the horn in his skull."

The tall young man with the white blonde hair smiled before quickly saying, " don't bow or anything, that get really old after awhile." The smile and the almost carefree way that he spoke confused Raven. In fact, the entire royal family, at least the ones she had me, confused her.

Seeing the confusion on her face, Helios smiled again, saying, "Let me guess, thought that royalty would be more aloof?" At her nod he added, " you're just seeing how we act in private. In public we all need to act a little more formal."

Still confused but willing to let it go for the moment, Raven turned to Sally saying, " You said—"

Sally interrupted her, "yes I did say that the princess was here. Look again."

Raven looked around the room of smiling eyes, eyes that seemed to share an inside joke. Slowly, each head in the room turned to look at—Ashley? A smile spread across the young woman's face. Then, slowly, she began to change. The once bound up curls lengthened and fell around her face. Rich brown eyes turned green while a coronet materialized on her head. Sitting where the Guardian had sat was a young woman who bore a great resemblance to the queen.

"This is Princess Carina," Sally said.

Sorry about the short chapter. I'm having a few plot/ character/ my time issues. Review. Help and criticism are welcomed.
