Okay, for this chapter, I wrote myself a basic overview of what happens. I found that makes it easier for me to write it out since I'm not wasting time on thinking of what's next in the chapter. Heck, I was able to type both this, and the second chapter to The White Stick because of it! So I'm sticking to this plan in the future!

Anyways, I again loved all the feedback the last chapter received! I'm glad that the last few or so chapters have been breaking at least ten reviews! This is a consistency I do like to see when I write! It also makes my Annual Mailbox Time all the more interesting for me!

So, let me know what you thought! And like I said in the first chapter, let me know if you have any ideas you'd like me to use in the story! HornedGoddess, your idea for having Rage and the Beast frolick together, that will be coming up soon! And also, I finally followed through with your review to my BBxRae week. And made a story for 'The White Stick'


Mailbox Time!

Golem XIV: Yeah, that part made me smile too, but in an evil way. I love cat fights between Raven's emoticlones. And of course. The names only apply to what they represent the most. Yet, Timid can be brave herself at times. While Happy can also be sad. Raven will be in for quite the shock when she makes the connection. Anyways, enjoy the chapter!

Lilfitz04: Oh yeah, things are going to go down soon! Was it Beast Boy that did that? Yep, the fight was hilarious in my opinion! Enjoy this chapter as well for me Wyatt!

swemanD47: If only they had made it into an actual Teen Titans Episode. That would have been really hilarious to see!... maybe I should send it to TTG? *shrugs* Anyways, hope you enjoy this chapter as well man!

Foamsatmouth: Hey, there are some words I don't really use. Unfortunately, that one word describes all to well what all the girls in my class were like. So yeah, that is one word I will wholeheartedly approve of. Especially for a certain bitch in this story. (LOL) And oh boy, I can't wait to see what happens in your stories Foamy! Hope you like this chapter dude! It ends with a thonk!

.Stranger.13: I see you really enjoyed what I had Timid do there! I almost died laughing at my job when I thought of that part! So many people gave me strange looks, but oh well. You might be disappointed for who really carved out the alcove, but in a way, I think you'll still like it! Who could Raven possibly be crushing on... (MUWHAHAHAHAHA I HOLD THE POWER!) not sure where that came from. Anyways, enjoy the chapter dude!

Latisha McPeanuts: Thanks! I hope you think this chapter is great as well! Or even greater than the last!

HornedGoddess: I think I'll have to go into a little more detail about that next chapter. Anyways, I hope you enjoy this chapter of the story! And like I said in the Author's Notes up above, 'The White Stick' is now being worked on! Hope you find it!

Azarath Cat: Hey, Prologue said a shortening list of friends, and a growing list of enemies. Do you think I was kidding when I wrote that! Anyways, that last line was mega cheesy. But I was tired. And I really just wanted to get it done. So sorry about that. I hope you enjoy this chapter though!

RPGPersona: With her attitude towards Beast Boy then, she'd almost certainly have no hope. Since he hasn't proven himself with defeating the Brotherhood of Evil and all. Yeah, Affection did guilt Raven. I found that part to be extremely hilarious! Of course the penny is worth a lot. It's from Beast Boy after all. If you were told you were crushing on someone you could barely stand, wouldn't you go crazy too? Unless you figured it out on your own. I think Cyborg is still fixing up the Tower. While the non-fliers of the Young Justice are taking a much needed break. The real question is, where the heck are most of the Justice League?

LIONESS STEPHANIE: I hope this was fast enough. Because quite honestly, I have a major headache by this point from all the writing I did the last couple days. So please, don't expect the next one to be within the next few days fast. Maybe a week? Hopefully sooner if this damn headache goes away! Hope you love the chapter though!

Bluedog197: Once again, another review that brings a smile to my face. I'm wondering if Zatanna should be killed off in this story to atone for her sins (Smiles evilly to self). And no, the Justice League wouldn't take her side. Since altering the minds of others is a really big no no in their opinion. She better hope she never is caught. Hmmm, if I'm a wizard, I predict you'll like the next part in this story! Literally! Now, here's a cookie to eat along with this chapter. Don't get all the crumbs over whatever you use to read this though!

Chapter Nine: What the Beast Wants


The big green grizzly bear let out a small roar as it woke up. The ground beneath it felt hard and rough to it for some reason. There was a loud pitter patter sound coming into its sensitive ears that was really annoying. Kind of like its alarm clock back home. But it never went off, unless Robin turned it on for it when there was early morning training the next morning.

Robin could be very sneaky like that.

The bear reached out with its claws, wanting to shred that annoying alarm clock to bits. Only to scratch against something hard.

'OW!'

Finally, the big green bear opened it's bright green pupiled eyes. It expected to see its room back at Titan's Tower. Its alarm clock on the floor, blaring at it to wake up and start the new day so he could go to early morning training or whatever the heck Robin wanted it to do this early in the morning.

Imagine its surprise then when it saw itself lying down on rocky ground. Which explained why it didn't feel like it was on a mattress (which honestly, the bunk bead would have probably collapsed from his weight if he was on one). Then the bear saw that it was facing a similarly rocky wall. Then his sense of smell came back, and he recognized that this certainly wasn't his room. It smelled too good for it to be that. It rolled over, and saw the ceiling was rocky too.

The bear shifted back into a small lanky green boy. Dressed in his classic Doom Patrol uniform. Beast Boy sat up and looked around himself in confusion.

"Dude… where am I?" Beast Boy said out loud. He wasn't expecting an answer.

"We are in a cave. About one hundred miles north, and sixty-eight miles to the east of where our old den was." The Beast said to him inside his mind.

"Wait, why are we in a cave?... Man, the last thing I remember was flying in my eagle form into a large dark cloud, and then…" Beast Boy trailed off. What had happened after that?

"About that cloud master. Did you know that you flew into the largest and most powerful rain storm to ever hit this side of the continent?' The Beast asked him in a humorous tone.

A memory flashed by his eyes. Of himself, flying through gale force winds as rain pelted his bird form body. Then how tired he had been from having no sleep, and from flying so long in that condition…

Beast Boy looked towards the entrance of the cave. And saw that said storm was still going on outside. It looked even worse than it did in his memory, now that he was on the ground.

"Okay… that could help explain why I still feel so tired... but how did I get us here if I was about ready to collapse from exhaustion up there dude?" Beast Boy asked, as he continued to look outside the entrance at the raging storm.

"Well on the way here, you were starting to pass out from exhaustion, so I might have… taken the wheel of the ship as you'd say it."

Beast Boy should have gotten angry at that. The Beast had taken control without his permission. But honestly, he was grateful the Beast had done what he did. Who knows where he would have been if the Beast hadn't done that.

"Well I guess if you hadn't done that, then I would be in the middle of a mud pit on the ground right now. So like, thanks I guess."

The Beast seemed rather pleased with that. Then something seemed to have caught his attention. "Hmmm, it seems like our mate has been out of her mirror for quite some time now." The Beast again spoke from inside his mind after a moment.

Beast Boy didn't even bother with trying to correct him. The Beast could call her whatever it wanted to for all he cared. Just as long as Raven herself never heard any of it. Beast Boy turned around in the cave to see if he could spot Raven or not. He decided to think his replies now since he didn't want Raven to think he was insane talking to himself.

'Where do you think she is? Because I don't see her.'

"Look at the indent in the wall on the left master. You can't miss it." The Beast said in his mind.

Beast Boy focused on the left side with his eyesight, and found an alcove that had completely missed his eyesight before. It looked pretty deep and smooth, unlike the rest of the cave. It was definitely made by someone. He looked more closely through the darkness, and saw Raven sleeping in the alcove. Her violet strands of hair framed her peaceful looking face. Beast Boy subconsciously found himself staring.

"Master, are you there?" The Beast asked.

It shocked Beast Boy back into reality. 'Yeah, I was just studying the alcove, that's all.' Beast Boy thought, with a bright blush forming on his face.

"Sure master. Studying the alcove." The Beast said with a sarcastic tone to its voice. Beast Boy slightly growled to himself out of irritation.

'Anyways, how did you know that alcove would be there for her? Or was it just a lucky guess?' Beast Boy asked, wanting to change the subject.

"It wasn't. After I landed us here, I saw there would be no comfortable place for our mate to sleep. So I went ahead and used our claws to dig that out."

Beast Boy looked down at his hands. Surely, even with his sharp claws, he would have hurt himself digging out all that rock. 'How did you manage to dig that big thing out without hurting me in the process?' Beast Boy asked.

"I… wait. I remember the pain from almost ripping out several of our claws. So I had to change us to a grizzly bear after we were done since they're such heavy sleepers. That way we wouldn't feel the pain as much while we rested up. It still hurt like a wolf biting my paws though."

Beast Boy looked to Raven again. Making sure to keep a platonic viewpoint inside his mind. 'Maybe Rae healed us up after she left her mind.' Beast Boy suggested. It seemed like the most plausible choice. Then he paused as he thought. 'Wait, if I was out of it, how did she know it was safe to come out?'

'Don't worry master. I made sure that after the alcove was made that she got the surprise you had for her.'

'So you think she recognized the penny?'

"Would she be here now master if she didn't?"

'Hmmm, that's a fair point I guess.' Beast Boy looked at the sleeping empath a second more, then looked to the right of the alcove. Where there seemed to be something resting on a small rock.

'Say, isn't that the pouch she was carrying from before?' Beast Boy said, while pointing to the rock.

'It looks like it, but maybe we should leave it alone. You saw how our mate reacted when you grabbed for it last time.' The Beast tried to warn Beast Boy.

The curious part of his mind was making Beast Boy move towards the pouch. Along with the sense to retrieve his and Raven's packs from it. So he could see what Cyborg had packed in the emergency packs. Maybe he had food in them too. He was getting hungry.

'Master! What are you doing! Do you really want to anger our mate again instead of wait for her to handle her own stuff!' The Beast shouted inside his mind.

'Well Beast. There's nothing to do out here at the moment since we're stuck in this cave. And you know what boredom does to me. Besides, I doubt Rae would appreciate being woken up herself to grab two packs from her pouch. So we have to like, do this ourselves so she can sleep.'

'Alright, if you're going to just anger our mate out of boredom again, I'm not going to be at fault for warning you.' The Beast said.

'C'mon, aren't you curious as to how it even works?' Beast Boy thought as he grabbed the pouch and moved silently over to the other side of the cave.

'No. Since I can already see what the outcome of this foolish endeavor is going to be.' The Beast said angrily inside his mind.

Beast Boy thought for a moment. He didn't want his Beast to make him feel guilty later. So he had to think of something to win him over. When he thought of something.

'What about if after I grabbed the packs, I grabbed something covered in her scent for you. Like maybe, an article of clothing.' Beast Boy thought.

The Beast stayed silent, and Beast Boy wondered if he had retreated into his mind or not. Then… 'Fine. But if we get caught, I'm not going to be at fault for this.'

'I knew you would come to see things my way.' Beast Boy thought smugly to himself. Before he opened up the pouch. Only to see himself staring into a dark abyss.

'Ummm… don't human pouches usually have a bottom to them master?' The Beast asked.

Beast Boy didn't answer. He reached his arm into it as far as it would go. Yet he still felt nothing but air, no matter what may he moved it. 'Dang, this is so cool, but I wish I knew how it worked.'

'Maybe we should just put it back master. I mean, we could always go back to sleep and wait for our mate to wake up to explain it to us.' The Beast tried to suggest.

'Nah, I'm too curious to go back to sleep now… I just need to find out how this works... this pouch seems so familiar to me, but why…'

'Master. We're just wasting time now. Who knows when our mate might-'

'Wait! This pouch is just like the one from the movie! That one the girl carried it around with her everywhere!' Beast Boy suddenly thought with glee. He pulled the memory of it up for the Beast so he'd understand.

After the memory, the Beast sounded skeptical. 'Are you certain calling an item from it would be as simple as that? You don't even know any magic master. Only our mate can do it, and from what I know, she certainly doesn't say stuff as simple as that in her spells.' The Beast said.

'Well, only one way to find out…' Beast Boy thought. As he waved his hand over the pouch. In a style similar to a wizard.

"Accio emergency packs." Beast Boy whispered aloud to the bag. Before he looked into the inky darkness.

At first, nothing happened. 'Okay, it didn't work. Can we-' The Beast started to say.

Bam!

The two packs came rocketing up from the pouch and hit Beast Boy in the face. Cutting off the Beast as Beast Boy felt the pain of the impact from the packs bruise his nose.

Yet, somehow, in his mind, he was jumping with joy.

'Ha! It worked! I can't believe it worked! I can't believe she had a pouch based off of Harry Potter!' Beast Boy thought as he tried to stay silent in the real world. He felt his nose, and was thankful he didn't feel any blood.

'Great! Now that that's out of the way, put the freaking pouch back before she wakes up master!' The Beast shouted inside his mind. Almost giving him a headache.

But success was clouding Beast Boy's mind. If he could call for the packs, what else could he call for? Feeling mischievous, Beast Boy opened the pack wide again.

'But didn't you want something of Waven's Beastie.' Beast Boy thought in a taunting manner. The Beast rolled his eyes at his master's childish antics. Then smiled mischievously as he thought of exactly what he could ask for.

'Why yes, I actually did master. Thank you for reminding me about that part of our agreement.' The Beast said, getting ready to make its once in a lifetime demand.

'Okay, shoot.' Beast Boy thought.

'Her undergarments.' The Beast said in a sure voice.

Beast Boy seemed to have forgotten how to breathe…

The Beast started to wonder if he had broken his master with the request…

Finally…

'WHAT! ARE YOU FETCHING INSANE! RAE WOULD KILL ME IF SHE EVER FOUND OUT ABOUT THAT!' Beast Boy shouted so loudly into his mind. It caused a ringing sound to fill the Beast's ears.

The Beast smiled smugly despite the ringing in his head. 'What master. You asked me what I wanted from the pouch to agree to not guilt you for this. I thought you even agreed to grab me an article of her clothing in the first place.'

'But I meant like her hood! Or her cape! Not… what you're asking for!'

'Are you really too childish to just call them a bra or panties master. I mean, you already have seen our mate without her clothes. So why can't you say those two simple words.'

'Will you stop bringing that up!' Beast Boy thought as the memory tried to come into his mind again.

'Get me at least one of those two, and I might.' The Beast said.

Beast Boy groaned to himself. 'Rae is going to kill me…'

'Our mate might just do that if you stand there holding her pouch any longer.'

Beast Boy took a deep breathe. Then looked to see if Raven was still dead asleep. She was. 'Well, here goes nothing.'

"Accio bra." Beast Boy whispered. Before he looked into the pouch.

A minute passed... then two... then five…

'Dude…' Beast Boy thought in shock.

'Maybe you said it wrong…' The Beast said in an unsure voice.

"Accio bra." Beast Boy whispered again. As he stared into the depths of the pouch.

Five more minutes passed. And again, nothing happened.

'Accio panties.' Beast Boy tried. In a slightly louder voice. Maybe it would help if he said it a little louder.

Ten minutes passed…

'Oh my gosh…' 'Holy animal kingdom…' Both thought at the same time. Beast Boy found himself looking over to Raven.

'She doesn't have… so that means…' Beast Boy was thinking in shock to himself at the unexpected discovery.

'Ahwooooooo! Ah! Ah! Ahwooooooooo!' The Beast was wolf whistling loudly inside his mind. He had made the connection at the same time as his master. And boy was he happy for it.

'You know what, I think I'll just put this back now… and forget what happened here…' Beast Boy thought as he dumbly started to make his way back to where the pouch had been before.

'Thanks for the mental image master! This is far better than an article of clothing!' The Beast shouted before he continued to wolf whistle inside his mind.

'What! I'm not thinking about anything!' Beast Boy thought.

'Oh trust me master, I can still see it very clearly!' He said, as he brought up the mental image Beast Boy now had of Raven in his mind.

'Ga!' Beast Boy thought in shock. There was no way he could be thinking of Raven in that way! Especially when that wasn't what showed in her costume!

In the real world, he didn't see a small rock sticking out of the ground. Which his big toe conveniently hit. The big toe, such a lovely thing. The most important in keeping your balance. Yet hurts like hell when you hit something with it. Like sidewalks, chairs, beds, or in this case, a stupid rock.

Beast Boy's shock was replaced with pain. "Ow!... Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow! OW!" Beast Boy yelled as he started hopping around on one foot. The pouch he was holding flew up into the air. Almost hitting the ceiling, before it slowed, and then floated slowly back towards the ground. Unnoticed by Beast Boy.

Beast Boy was still hopping on one foot and screaming bloody murder. He was being even louder than the storm outside at that moment. "Stupid rock! Stupid toe! Like who puts a rock in cave for innocent green toes to strike against!" He was yelling when he realized two things at once. One, he was making far too much noise for a person to sleep. And two, the pouch wasn't back in its spot. Now that he thought about it, he didn't hear it hit the ground either. Or the ceiling fifteen feet up.

Beast Boy looked to the alcove, where the sleeping Raven had been. Begging for his vision to not be the case.

Her eyes were blazing white, her blue cloak trailing around her like an angry wave. She was floating in the air in front of the alcove. The pouch was in the air beside her, floating with the help of her powers. Her face seemed to be on the verge of breaking into a deep rage with the glare she was giving him. Yet, he also couldn't get the fact out of his mind that she was only in her costume at the moment. It might haunt him for the days to come.

'I'm so dead.' Beast Boy thought.

'I told you so.' Was all the Beast said as it retreated into his mind. He'd come back later, if his master was still alive that is.

'Dude! Not cool!' Beast Boy thought. As he was literally shaking at the knees. If Raven's glare from the time he tried to grab the pouch before could kill, he was surprised that the one she was giving him now hadn't sent him down to the bottom pit of hell yet.

"I thought… I told you… to keep your… slimy… green… hands… off... my… mother's... pouch." Raven said in a slow, quiet, yet creepy monotone. So as to keep her emotions at bay. This also made Beast Boy start to cower in front of her.

"Eh, heh heh, I don't think you phrased it like that Rae." Beast Boy said in a high voice.

A tendril of power lifted Beast Boy up into the air so he was face to face with her. He audibly gulped as he could now clearly see all the anger she had in her eyes. Even though they were now glowing white.

"I know I can't kill you Beast Boy… Since you and I are now fugitives from the League… and as much as it pains me to admit this… I might need your help in the future in avoiding or fighting off the League... but if you ever… ever… touch the only thing my dead mother gave me again…" Raven again said in a slow monotone.

"Alright! Alright! I get it! Don't touch the creepy bottomless black pouch again or else you'll put me into it!" Beast Boy screamed in a scared tone as he curled up into a ball while in the air.

Raven continued to hold him up in front of her. But her eyes had stopped glowing out of anger for the moment. She briefly wondered to herself why she had been mad, but not like rage mad. Then she shook the question in her mind aside.

"Now, what did you take from my mother's pouch?" She asked in the same threatening voice.

He gulped again while curled up. "Only our emergency packs Rae! I swear, that's all I took from them! I was feeling hungry! And I knew that Cyborg must have packed something for us in them!" He quickly shouted. He wasn't lying, technically. He would have to though if she asked if he tried to take anything else out.

Raven looked behind him. The packs were laid on the ground by where he had laid. There was nothing else by them. It almost made her sigh in relief. "How did you know how to grab those from my mother's pouch?" She had to ask, with a little tint of curiosity in her voice.

Beast Boy uncurled from his ball a little at the change in her voice. "I… well… I just looked at it… and it looked a lot like one I saw in a movie… so I thought that it worked the same way."

Her face became flat. "Let me guess, Harry Potter?" Her voice was flat.

"Wait, how would you know that? I thought you weren't that interested in movies?" Beast Boy had to ask, as he uncurled himself from his ball completely.

Raven had to roll her eyes. "Because maybe I read the books that came out before the movies."

His face became confused. "So, the movies were based off a book series?"

'Azar… he really should read something other than comics for once.' "Yes Beast Boy. The movies were all based off a book series." She said in a slightly irritated tone. Before she started to rub her forehead.

'I can't believe he managed to unravel three straight hours of meditation in the three seconds it took for him to wake me up.' She had to think to herself.

"That's… kind of cool… I guess." Beast Boy said to himself.

"Now, did you take anything else out that I should be aware of?" Raven asked.

Beast Boy shook his head. Making sure to keep his emotions calm as he did so. Raven finally let out a sigh of relief at that.

"Alright. Since it was only the packs. I think I could forgive you this time…" Beast Boy started to relax in her grip. When her face hardened again. Making Beast Boy squeal in fear. "However, that is your second strike involving my mother's pouch Beast Boy. One more, and I'll gladly show you just how bottomless this pouch truly is as you suggested." She said in a threatening tone. Beast Boy gulped again.

"Yes Rae! I won't touch it again! I swear by my parent's graves!" He said quickly to agree with her.

Her hardened face stared at him for a second longer, wondering why he swore on his parent's graves. Were they dead or something? She again brushed the thought aside, before she turned around to walk up the distance of the cave. She dropped Beast Boy onto the ground as she did so.

She was getting a headache, she was hungry, and felt another good round of meditation was in order. She'd handle her meditation first. Before she went back to see what was in her pack. Hopefully there wasn't any tofu in it.

She walked as far as she could away from Beast Boy before she got into the lotus position and started her meditation. She would have floated, but there was a chance she'd hit her head on the ceiling since it was lower back here.

Beast Boy was still at the front near the entrance. Feeling guilty for what he had done. Raven's pouch was again on it's rightful perch, but this time he ignored it. He sadly made his way back to the emergency packs he had grabbed from the pouch.

'Dang it, I shouldn't be trying to piss her off. She is right. We're both fugitives from the League now. And we'll need to be able to work together if we want to survive…' He took a look at her small form in the distance. Able to still feel the anger she was harboring through his animal senses.

'Besides, even though the Beast exaggerates it. I do like her a little bit. Maybe not as much as Terra. Or maybe a little more. I'm still not sure what to think about her. But regardless, I do like her. And I can't have her just hate me...' He thought.

He opened up a side in his pack. It was slightly bulky there from where he had stuffed a few of his possessions in. He pulled those out, keeping them out of view as he slipped them into his belt. Next to where his drawing book still was in one of its pockets.

He took a look at Raven again. What could he do to get her to not be mad?... Maybe the trick he used with Starfire...

Raven was in her spot, still trying to meditate. But her own anger was just getting in the way of her finding her center. No matter what she tried to think of, she couldn't get rid of her own anger. Up ahead, a small rock was encased in black, before it was chucked deeper into the cave. Yet, Raven felt the amount of emotion she was feeling should have leveled the cave.

What is it with him that just makes me want to just… Argh! Focus Raven! You need to reign yourself in! Just let go of the anger… let it go… let it go…'

Another rock was encased with black. And thrown against the cave wall. 'Argh! It was so easy last night! So why is it so hard now!' Raven thought to herself.

'Maybe because you are trying to rid yourself of the wrong emotion?' Knowledge suggested to Raven in her mind.

'What do you mean?! I'm mad at Beast Boy! What other emotion could I possibly be trying to feel at this moment!?' Raven shouted angrily inside her mind.

'Are you sure it's Beast Boy you're mad at?' Wisdom said this time.

Raven found herself cut short at that. She was mad at Beast Boy. At least, she was supposed to be. He had touched the only gift she had ever received from her mother… who had never really been a mother… and he had only grabbed their packs… and then it looked like he had been setting it back right after she had…

Raven's eyes grew wide. 'I'm mad at myself for overreacting, aren't I?' She asked.

Raven could have sworn she heard cheering going off inside her mind at that. 'People normally call it guilt, but in a way, yeah. You're mad at yourself.' Knowledge spoke inside her mind above the cheering of the other emoticlones.

'Okay… how do I get rid of it then?' Raven asked. Having not really personally felt guilty before. At least on a scale like this…

'Simple, you only have to say sorry to him… and you have to sound like you mean it.' Knowledge added to the end.

'But if I tried to sound sincere, couldn't that level the cave?' Raven asked.

'Don't worry about that Raven. He's lived with you long enough to know what even the slightest change in your voice means. To him, that alone will mean you're sincere.' Wisdom said.

Raven took a deep breathe, and exhaled slowly. 'Okay then. I hope you girls are right?'

'We represent your Knowledge and your Wisdom Raven. Of course we're going to know what's right.' Both said at the same time.

Raven started getting ready to get off the ground. When she felt something furry brush against her right hand. Almost shocking her as she finally opened her eyes and looked to it.

There was, ironically, Beast Boy. Sitting on his hind legs. Looking at her with wide eyes.

In kitten form.

At first, Raven flatly stared at the kitten. Even though in her mind, Happy was shrieking like crazy over how cute he looked doing 'The Face.'

"Meow." Even the meow was cute.

'Looks like he wants you to forgive him too.' Wisdom said inside of her mind.

Raven was staring flatly into those big green eyes. She had wanted to say sorry, but the sight of him, for some reason, just made her want to go insane or something. She couldn't tell if she was mad at him again, or what. It was just so confusing. And his cute little form wasn't helping!

Finally, Raven did something that was truly unlike her.

She lifted up her hand and started to scratch the kitten behind its ears. The purr she received in return almost caused her to smile. And then she picked up the kitten, and set it in front of her, so she could stare at it.

"Look, Beast Boy. I know you probably came over here as a kitten since it's your way of saying sorry without angering me... But, I'm the one that should be apologizing to you." She said, a small note of sincerity in her voice. The kitten tilted its head at that.

"You only grabbed my pouch to grab our packs from it. And I shouldn't have gotten mad at you for that. And it's been what, one, two days since we last ate."

The kitten raised up two of its claws on its right paw. Raven nodded at that. "Two days, I'd say we didn't have any water, but that storm out there speaks otherwise to me." Raven said a little sarcastically, as she pointed at the faraway entrance. Before she sighed. "What I'm trying to say Beast Boy, is I'm sorry. I overreacted with you about that pouch, and it's not like my mom really showed me that much love anyways… So... Do you think, that you could forgive me?" It was mostly monotone, but with a strange hint of begging to it.

The kitten was looking up at her with wide eyes. Was this really Raven, being the one that apologized to him. The mind inside the kitten was almost in shock. Then it suddenly started to pur really loudly. The emotions of happiness coming off it almost overwhelmed Raven's senses. Little did she know, a small smile had formed on her face at it.

"I take it you accept my apology." She said sarcastically, but with a hint of playfulness to it.

The kitten looked up at her again. And then started to morph back into Beast Boy. Who looked like he was going to say something.

Thonk!

Beast Boy crumpled to the ground unconscious. Apparently, in his state of happiness, he hadn't realized just how low the ceiling really was. And now, he was out cold. Having hit his head on said ceiling.

Raven first stared in slight shock at his body, before she knew it, she was chuckling at the sight. And almost giggling at that. It was almost too funny. 'Okay, now that was funny.' She had to think to herself.

'Beast Boy should take up physical comedy more often.' Knowledge noted.

Finally, Raven hauled her emotions in, not noticing how this time, nothing had happened. Not one thing had been moved.

She floated both Beast Boy, and herself over to the entrance. There she laid him in the alcove and healed his head. So that way he would at least not wake up with a splitting headache later.

She then debated if she should go through her pack yet or not. But then felt that she should finish what she had wanted to do first. And again got into the lotus position. Where she floated into the air to start her chant.

With the guilt out of the way, Raven reached her center.

All the while, she still had the small smile on her face.


Author's Notes:

Well, finished this up, and the second chapter to 'A White Stick' on the same day. Had a good load of time the last three days to write. Hopefully that streak will continue.

Anyways, hope you liked. My favorite had to be his shock at not getting those two items he called for the Beast. And as to what Wisdom and Knowledge did, remember back in Chapter Two, what they were doing. Yeah, like I said, they will be the ones helping Raven to sort through her emotions.

So… what do you guys think? Only thing I can ask now? Other than to favorite and follow this. Also, make sure to read 'The White Stick.' I promise you that it will be good!

Till Next Time
