"EMOTIONS" - A MISTAKE CAUSED BY BEAST BOY CAUSES RAVEN'S EMOTIONS TO FLEE FROM HER MIRROR. IT'S UP TO THE TITANS TO GET THEM BACK WHILE BEAST BOY LOOKS AFTER A LESS THAN NORMAL RAVEN.
"EMOTIONS"
It was a normal day in Titans Tower, well as normal as it can get for five super power teens. Having these gifts meant control and responsibility. This was more true for Raven than others. Her powers meant control of her emotions. Sometimes it was difficult to maintain the emotions in side her but Raven's mirror helped a lot. This mirror was the gate-way to her emotions and helped contain them.
It was morning and Raven was in her room floating above the ground, cross legged, in the middle of her bedroom. Her eyes were closed and he blue cloak waved behind her as she meditated.
Raven's meditation was cut short this morning as the green teen know as Beast Boy ran inside her room. Raven's eyes narrowed and her lips were in the form of a frown.
"Beast Boy, what are--"
Beast Boy's face held a look of panic and he grabbed her shoulders. "Raven, please. You gotta hide me from Cyborg."
"What?" Raven shook her head. "I don't care, out of my room. Now."
Suddenly there was a knock on the door and Beast Boy froze.
"Her, Raven. Can I talk to you a minute?" It was Cyborg.
Beast Boy folded his hands together and he silently pleaded with her. Raven sighed and walked to the door. She would help him this one time. The door opened with a swoosh and Raven looked up at Cyborg.
"What?"
"Oh, hey, Raven," Cyborg said with a big goofy grin. "You wouldn't happen to have seen Beast Boy did you?"
Raven saw him peering into her room and decided to end the conversation. "No."
With out as much as saying a 'good morning' or 'goodbye' Raven closed the door in Cyborg's face.
Beast Boy changed back into human form after hiding in the form of a green fly. "Thanks, Raven. I owe you big time."
"Just get out of my room before I make you regret ever knowing me." Raven said darkly.
Beast Boy smiled sheepishly and opened the door, ready to leave but stopped in his tracks and a look of fear came on his face.
"Stank ball!" Cyborg yelled, throwing the smelly ball of socks at Beast Boy.
Beast boy ran back in the room and Raven watched in terror as the two boys ran around her room. Her patience was wearing thin. "STOP!"
Beast Boy who retrieved the ball from Cyborg threw it back at him but upon hearing Raven yell, Cyborg stopped and shrunk to the ground in fear. The ball continued it's course and Raven's eyes widened in fear as it hit her dresser, making all her belonging's fall to the ground, including her mirror.
The mirror fell to the ground as almost as if it was in slow motion before finally making contact with the floor and breaking into three pieces. The room was filled with a white light as the mirror glowed. Eight strikes of color fled from the broken glass and out the tower.
-
A furious yell was heard throughout the tower emitting from Raven's room. In fact, it was Raven herself doing the yelling. This could only mean one thing; she was upset. Upon hearing her yell Starfire and Robin rushed to her room, only to see Beast boy and Cyborg against the wall, fear written all over their faces. Raven advanced towards them, her hands glowing with dark power.
"Raven," Robin said. "What's going on?"
"These two... idiots," she snarled. "They broke my mirror."
"It was an accident!" Beast Boy shrieked.
"Please, Raven, explain," Starfire said. "Why is it you wish to destroy Beast Boy and Cyborg for breaking your mirror? Can you not just buy another one?"
"You don't understand, Starfire," Raven said as her hands fell to her side. "That mirror contained my emotions. With it broken their..."
"Their what?" Robin asked, leader mode kicking in.
"Their out, free to do what they want."
"Well, can't we just round them up?" asked Cyborg.
"We can," Raven said, picking up the three pieces of the mirror. "But we'll need these."
"Alright. Titans, move--"
"I can't go."
The team looked at Raven. She sighed.
"With my emotions out I won't be much help. I won't be able to control myself like I normally do."
Robin nodded in understanding. "Me, Starfire and Cyborg will head out to the city and bring back your emotions."
"All they need to do is make contact with piece of the mirror." Raven said.
"Hello!" cried Beast Boy. "What about me? What am I supposed to do?"
"You can stay here with Raven to make sure she doesn't loose control." Robin said.
"Why me?"
"Why him?"
Both Raven and Beast Boy spoke at the same time.
"Beast Boy, it's your fault we're in this mess," Robin pointed out. "Raven... try not to kill him."
"No promises."
Robin, Cyborg and Starfire ran down the hall, Starfire taking flight into the city and Robin taking his motorcycle. Cyborg jumped in the T-car and sped down to the city. Once everyone disappeared from sight Beast Boy rubbed the back of his neck and turned to Raven.
"Listen, Raven. I'm really sorry about breaking your mirror."
Raven said nothing in reply.
"Aw, c'mon, Raven, forgive me," Beast Boy begged. He couldn't stand it when one of his friends were mad at him. Especially when it came to Raven. The last thing he wanted was to ruin their growing relationship. "Please."
"I'm giving you fair warning now, Beast Boy. Since my emotions are on the loose I will be... moody."
"Hey, it's okay," Beast Boy said with a smile. "The others will have you fixed up in no time." He heard a sniffle. "Raven?"
"What if they don't find my emotions?!" Raven cried, tears falling down her cheeks. "Then everyone will be mad at me! I should have taken care of my mirror!"
More tears fell from her eyes as Raven ran down the hall to the living room. Beast Boy's eyes were the size of dinner plates. He had just experienced Raven being timid.
-
Robin raced down the streets of Jump City on his motorcycle. His eyes glanced around briefly as he passed down the street searching for any sign of a cloaked girl. Suddenly, he stopped as he saw a girl who looked exactly like Raven dressed in a grey cloak. Robin took of his helmet and got of his motorcycle, making his way to the girl.
"Timid?" Robin asked, guessing it was her since she had tears forming in her eyes.
"Robin?" she asked, wiping her eyes. "Is that you?"
"Yeah, how'd you know?"
"I'm apart of Raven," she began to tear up at the name of Raven. "Raven!"
She started to cry uncontrollably and the tears started to come out like a waterfall. Robin tried to calm her down but it didn't work. People began to point and stare.
"Hey, you wanna get back to Raven right?"
Timid stopped crying and rubbed her eyes. "Yeah..."
"I can help," Robin toke out the piece of mirror from his utility belt and held it out to her. "If you touch this you can go back to Raven."
Timid seemed apprehensive at first but held out her hand to the mirror. She was engulfed in a white light and pulled back into the mirror. Robin put the piece of mirror back into his belt and got back on his bike. One down, seven more to go.
Mean while, back at the tower... Beast Boy and Raven were in the living room. Raven was still crying uncontrollably and Beast Boy was doing his best to make her stop. His best wasn't good enough.
"Come on, Raven, cheer up. There's no reason to cry."
Raven suddenly stopped and faced Beast Boy. "You got that right," she said, her mood suddenly changing. "Because I don't cry."
"But you--"
"You wanna start with me little man!" Raven said as she pushed him.
Beast Boy backed away as Raven approached him. "No, I was just thinking--"
Raven blew a strand of hair out of her face. "I know what you were thinking, you were thinking you're better than me. Well guess what, you're not!"
"I never said I was!" Beast Boy yelled, ready to pull out his hair.
"That's it! You and me, right now!" Raven yelled as her hands glowed with power.
Down town, Cyborg walked the streets of Jump City, his eyes looking down at his arm. Using his technology he was trying to find any form of Raven with in the distance around him. As it turns out, he didn't need his locator as a girl dressed in a green cloak was in front of him. Cyborg instantly knew how she was.
"Courage!"
She turned around to face him with a wide smile. "Cyborg! What's up?"
"I'm glad I found you," Cyborg said. "I need you to go back to Raven."
"No can do," Courage said with a shake of her head. "I like it out here. I wonder why Raven never let me out."
She began to walk away but Cyborg stepped in front of her.
"Where'd you think you're going?"
"Duh! I'm gonna explore the city," she punched her fist together. "Maybe beat up a few bad guys."
"Oh no," Cyborg shook his head. "You're going back in the mirror."
Courage grinned up at him. "Tell you what, if you beat me in a fight I'll go back.
"But I don't wanna--"
Cyborg was cut off as a fist connected with his jaw, sending him flying.
Back at the tower... Beast Boy was a mess. His whole body hurt due to the beating that Raven had given him. He rubbed his back as he stood up from the floor and could have sworn he heard a crack.
"This is why I stick to video games," he mumbled. "Ow."
"Beast Boy."
"AH! Please, Raven, no more!" Beast Boy shrieked in fear of her hurting him again.
"Beast Boy, I am so sorry." Raven said as she pulled him into a hug.
Beast Boy's face began to heat up and he blushed a cherry red. "Uh..."
"You're hurt," Raven said as she noticed the bump on his head. "Let me heal you."
Raven's hands began to glow with power and suddenly Beast Boy wasn't in any more pain.
"Thanks, Raven."
Raven smiled at him. "You're welcome."
Beast Boy, he had never seen Raven act so kind.
"How about I fix you up a tofu snack while you play video games."
Beast Boy's smile got even wider. These mood swings had their perks.
Back in the city... Starfire didn't know how long she had been flying but she couldn't stop searching for Raven's emotions. It was her duty as a Titan and as Raven's friend to help. Starfire's eyes looked at the ground below her. She gasped in delight when she saw a girl in a purple cloak in the middle of the park. The girl was surrounded by a small batch of young children. One of the kids seemed to have fall and scrap their elbow and the look-a-like of Raven was healing the cut. The cloaked girl smiled at the children and waved goodbye as they went to go play.
Starfire landed and saw the whole scene. By judging the scene before her Starfire instantly knew this was Kindness. Starfire approached the girl. "Kindness."
Kindness looked up and offered Starfire a kind smile. "Hello, Starfire. Lovely day isn't it?"
"Oh yes," Starfire agreed. "It is truly delightful."
Kindness stood up and faced Starfire. "Is there something I can do for you?"
"Please," said Starfire as she took out the piece of mirror she had been carrying. "I need you to return to Raven. She needs you."
"It would be wrong of me to reject someone in need," said Kindness. "Ok, I will return to the mirror."
"Thank you," said Starfire as she held out the piece of mirror in her palm. "This is very generous of you."
Kindness smiled and touched the mirror, disappearing from sight and into the mirror. Starfire took out her communicator and flipped it open.
"I have obtained Kindness," Starfire said as a image of Robin appeared. "I trust you have faired well."
"Doing just fine, Starfire," replied Robin. "Keep looking. There still is five more emotions."
Starfire nodded her head and closed her communicator before taking off into the sky.
-
The car on the screen made a quick turn before it crashed into a wall. beast Boy groaned and threw himself back on to the sofa. He wasn't the best video game player but he was better than others. But even the best had trouble playing the game with an occasional distraction.
What exactly was Beast Boy's distraction?
Raven.
Every time he would play the game she would poke at him and repeat over and over again that she was bored.
"Beast Boyyyyyyyy! I'm bored!"
Beast Boy looked at Raven. He had no idea she could be this... annoying.
"Listen, if you're bored why don't you play a game." Beast boy suggested, trying to reason with her.
"Can't."
"Why not?"
"Too tired..." Raven said with a yawn.
Back at the city... Cyborg rubbed his back. His whole body was aching. Courage was quite the opponent, never backing down. She was hard to beat but Cyborg managed to pull a sneak attack with his sonic cannon. She wore him down but Cyborg knew he couldn't quit. All he had to do was go inside the T-car and recharge real quick, then he could continue with the search.
Cyborg reached the T-car and opened the door. He climbed in and started the car but before he could make a single move he heard something coming from the back of his car. Cyborg turned around and saw a look-a-like of Raven wearing a orange cloak. She yawned and took another slice of pizza from the box resting besides her.
"I know you are not eating food in my car!" Cyborg shouted. He paused. "What are you doing here? How'd you even get in?"
"Pizza place was crowed... saw your car... used my powers...," Laziness then yawned and burped. "I'm so tired."
"Hold up just a minute, you can't go to sleep in my car!"
Back at the tower... Beast Boy's eye twitched in annoyance. Raven kept poking him and poking him. He couldn't take it. Finally, she poked him one to many times. He turned to her, his temper aflare.
"What!? What do you want?! I know you're bored already! You don't have to keep telling me! Would you just leave me alone!"
Raven's expression was in a state of shock as she shrunk away from him, looking hurt. Beast Boy instantly felt guilty.
"I'm sorry, Raven. I just..." he reached out to put a comforting hand on her shoulder but she pulled away.
"Stay away!" Raven yelled as she got up and ran to the kitchen.
"Raven, I said I was sorry," Beast Boy said as he stood up and walked over to her. "I didn't mean to yell."
He took a step forward and she ran to the other side of the kitchen. Raven picked up a frying pan and threw it at him. Beast Boy ducked and looked at the pan on the floor.
"Raven, what's--" he turned his head around to look at her and a pan connected to his face.
Back in the city... Robin chased after the girl with the brown cloak. He had no idea how fast this girl could run until he had approached her. Robin was looking for Raven's emotions when he finally came across one. He took a pretty safe guess that it was Fear, seeing as she was running away from him. Robin reached out his hand and grabbed her wrist. Fear turned around and kicked him in the leg, disappearing down the alley when he let go of her wrist. Once Robin got over the pain he followed. It was a dead end.
Robin approached Fear slowly, being careful so she wouldn't attack him again. "I only wanna help."
Fear turned to face him. "I don't like it here. I wanna go home."
"I can help you go home," Robin took out the mirror and placed it on the ground, stepping a good distance away. "If you touch that you can go home."
Fear looked up. She stepped closer to the mirror, being cautious. She looked up at Robin as if looking for reassurance and he nodded, letting her know it was okay. She touched the mirror and disappeared in a white light. Robin picked up the mirror, five down and three more to go.
Back at the tower... Beast Boy held up his hands in surrender as he tried to get Raven to calm down. She was going through one of her 'mood swings' and suddenly became afraid of Beast Boy. She had thrown many cooking utensils at him and finally had run out of things to throw at him.
"C'mon, Raven. It's just me. There's nothing to be scared of." Beast Boy said softly.
Raven stood up straight and looked at him. "I know that. Not only are you a fellow Titan but you pose no threat to me at all."
"Huh?"
"Your powers are of no match to mine. The chances of you succeeding in a battle against me is slim."
Beast Boy was shocked. "Are you calling me weak."
"Of course not," Raven said with a wave of her hand. "You're just a lesser being in my presence."
Beast Boy's jaw hit the floor.
Back in the city... Cyborg had managed to track down one of Raven's emotions in the library. He walked in and was less than surprised to see that it was empty. Cyborg looked around and spotted a girl dressed in a yellow cloak with glasses on her face. She was sitting at one of the tables with a mountain of books surrounding her. It didn't take a genius for someone to figure this out. Cyborg made his way over to the girl.
"Hello, Cyborg." said Wisdom as she turned the page in the book she was reading.
"How'd you know it was me?" Cyborg asked, a bit amazed that she knew it was him without even looking.
"I sensed your presence and knew you would be looking for me. You are here to send me back inside the mirror correct?"
Cyborg nodded. "Yeah."
"Very well," Wisdom said as she closed the book. "I'm done here anyway."
"Wait a minute," Cyborg said. "Are you saying you read all these books?"
Wisdom nodded. "I could not find an intellectual in which to have a conversation with so I spent my time reading. I'm disappointed in you, Cyborg. I would have suspected someone of your standards to find me much sooner. Perhaps all those," Wisdom shuddered. "Video games you play have taken a toll on your brain."
Cyborg grumbled. "Just get in the mirror."
Back in the tower... Beast Boy fell to the ground feeling exhausted. Raven's mood swings were draining him and he didn't know much longer he could survive.
"Come on, Beast Boy!" Raven shouted, jumping up and down on the couch. "Let's play some more!"
"How about we play the quite game." Beast Boy suggested. It was a lame attempt to get Raven to quite down. Raven's happy side was really beginning to annoy him and he really wanted to rest.
"Oh, Beast Boy, you're so funny," Raven began to giggle like a school girl. "I know, how about we have a tea party."
Beast Boy began t bang his head on the couch.
Back in the city... Starfire continued to search the park for any signs of Raven's emotions. She stopped and scanned the area with her eyes, looking from left to right. Starfire gasped with delight when she saw a girl in a pink cloak laying down on the grass.
Happy was resting on the grass twirling a yellow flower in her hands. The park was a beautiful relaxing place and she felt at peace here. She sighed in delight as the warm sun light washed over her.
"Happy?"
Happy opened one eye and looked up. She smiled and sat up. "Hey, Starfire! What are you doing here? Wait, wait, don't tell me... You're here looking for a hot guy aren't you?"
Starfire blinked in confusion. "Hot guy," Starfire repeated, unsure of what that term of slang meant. She would have to ask Robin what that meant later once the mission was completed. "Happy, I must ask something of you that is of the utmost importance," Starfire said as she took out the mirror. "I need you to return--"
"Oh no! I'm not going back in there," Happy said, crossing her arms in defiance. "It's so boring. There's no malls of candy shops... I'm not going and you can't make me."
Starfire took a moment to think about the situation before coming up with a plan. "What if I was to get Raven to visit the mall of shopping more often?"
Happy smiled. Being the happy side of Raven meant she liked the girly things. "You would do that?"
Starfire nodded and happy embraced her in a hug.
"Thank you so much, Starfire," Happy said as she pulled away. "I'm ready to go back now."
Seeing as how Happy was ready Starfire held out the piece of the mirror. Happy was engulfed in a white light before being sucked into the mirror. No sooner than that happened, Starfire's communicator began to beep. Starfire took out her communicator and flipped it open. Robin appeared on screen.
"Starfire, we have trouble."
-
Beast Boy had thought dealing with Raven's other emotions were hard enough but it was clear to him now that he thought wrong. So far he had dealt with all of her emotions, all but one. Rage. Dealing with Raven's other emotions were a walk in the park compared to dealing with Raven's rage.
Raven's eyes began to glow red as she used her powers to throw Beast Boy across the room, slamming him into a wall. Beast Boy fell to the ground with a thump and moaned in pain. He struggled to pick himself up.
He was at a complete lost at what to do. He couldn't fight her. It was Raven. She wasn't doing this on purpose, her emotions were out of control.
"Come on, Raven. It's me, Beast Boy," Beast Boy pleaded, hoping he could get through to her. "You don't really want to hurt me."
"I think you're mistaken...," Raven said darkly as she lifted up her hand, pointing her dark magic at Beast Boy. "I do want to hurt you."
"Well then, I guess that gives me no choice...," Beast Boy said as he stood up on his own two feet. "But to run!"
With that said Beast Boy rook off down the hall with Raven chasing after him.
"Come back here!" she yelled, throwing a energy blast at him, hitting him in his rear end.
Beast Boy jumped and ran faster. "I hope the others finish up soon!"
Little did Beast Boy know that the others were having just as much of a hard time as he was.
Back in the city... Robin, Cyborg and Starfire had surrounded Rage, not that she seemed worried due to the expression on her face. She smirked as her red cape blew in the wind.
Robin narrowed his eyes. "Titans, go!"
They attacked at once. Starfire attacked using her starbolts, Cyborg used his sonic cannon and Robin fired a series of exploding disc. Rage was quick to defend herself. She quickly called up a force field that blocked all the attacks sent at her. Rage smirked and threw her arms out, casting the force field away and sending the energy towards Cyborg, Starfire and Robin.
It was a direct hit and the three Titans were sent hurtling towards the ground. Not one of them seemed to notice that the three pieces of the mirror they were carrying fell to the ground.
"You call yourselves heros, pathetic," Rage snickered and looked over at Robin. "No wonder why Starfire dumped you, you're weak." Rage flicked her eyes towards Starfire. "You're a fool, it amazes me that you still have friends." Rage turned her attention towards Cyborg. "You... I don't even want to waist my breath on you."
The three Titans glared at her and stood silent. Rage took a step forward and raised her hands before her, her hands glowing.
"Once I get rid of you three I'll turn my attention towards the other two." Rage said as she stepped closer.
The three pieces of the mirror began to glow and before Rage could attack a shield of white power shielded the Titans. Rage stepped back and gasped as she was surrounded by Raven's other emotions.
Wisdom crossed her arms and looked down at Rage. "Rage, enough. It's time for you to stop fighting and to return to the mirror."
Rage narrowed her eyes and clenched her fist. "I don't want to go back and you can't make me."
"Is that a challenge?" Courage asked, ready to fight if needed.
"Listen, Rage," Laziness began before yawning. "None of us wanted to go back but we had to. It's how things work."
Rage crossed her arms in defiance.
"Aww, I think someone needs a hug!" Happy said as she went closer to Rage.
Rage stepped back. "Okay, I'll go back! Just don't hug me."
There was a blinding light as all of the emotions disappeared into the mirror. Once they were gone the mirror glowed and reconnected itself into one whole mirror instead of it's former three pieces.
-
The day had finally come to an end and the night sky engulfed Jump City. After a long exhausting day the Titans were ready to call it a night and get some rest. Robin, Cyborg and Starfire had all retired to their rooms, ready to get some sleep, but Beast Boy and Raven were still up. Beast Boy was walking Raven to her room and they both stopped outside of her door.
"So, um... Raven, about today," Beast Boy began, rubbing the back of his neck while he spoke. "I'm really sorry."
"I'm sorry too," Raven said after a short pause. "I didn't mean to be so much trouble today."
"Right, well... Good night."
"Night, Beast Boy." Raven paused and kissed his cheek quickly. She then disappeared into her room just as quickly.
Beast Boy smiled and began to walk down the hall towards his room.
"Beast Boy?"
Beast Boy stopped in his tracks and looked back to see Raven poking her head out. "Yeah, Raven?"
"If you ever come into my room again or break my mirror I'll make sure to lock you up with Rage for a month."
With that said Raven closed her door. Beast Boy chuckled.
"At least she's back to normal."
