Chapter Twelve: Helpless
"Azarath Metrion Zynthos…." Raven chanted letting out a slow breath. She had been meditating the entire day. When she had woken up feeling troubled for a reason she was not sure of she knew she needed to focus to see what was setting her off like this and with each passing hour this troubling feeling had gotten worse and worse. It was now around eleven at night and Raven's internal alarm was going crazy, but she was completely unsure why.
Something was blocking her from figuring out what was wrong; it was like there was a time gap obstructing her from finding an answer but she knew something bad was going to happen and it was going to happen soon. The fact that something was blocking her from finding an answer was not the only reason she wasn't able to find a solution; her mind had been wandering all day as she stayed secluded in her room, only leaving for food or tea.
Every time the subject of her thoughts was the exact same thing…or person in her case. Ever since she had woken up she had to struggle not to think about Beast Boy. Things have been worse since she came to realization earlier as well. Her emotions were running rampant within her and she had to try hard not to break anything when a fond thought of the green skinned boy came to mind.
Raven would not admit that she was falling into a crush like a school girl and she was not going into what she called a Starfire relationship. This was something entirely different. She knew what was bringing them closer and closer everyday and that was the twins; her daughters.
Raven never thought she would ever be able to call them her daughters and be comfortable with it but she was and she wasn't afraid to admit it.
"Ugh…" Raven grunted shaking her head. She sighed and took in a deep breath. "Azarath Metrion Zynthos…"
She focused in and tried to find the source of the bad vibes she was receiving but just like earlier that day all she saw were the twins. This puzzled her. How could the twins possibly be a threat….or maybe they were the ones being threatened.
Raven's eyes snapped open and widened in fear. Her shadow engulfed her instantly and she was gone.
"Galiana are you awake?" Ravenna questioned softly as she nudged the still form of her sister. Galiana cracked an eye open and rolled over to gaze at Ravenna who had a distressed look on her face.
"I am now. What's wrong? Bad Dream?" She questioned in a voice hoarse with sleep. Ravenna shrugged her shoulders while waving her hand in a so-so manner.
"Sorta, it was more like a bad vibe. I saw us and we weren't safe." Ravenna explained. "I was wondering if you'd meditate with me so that I could get a better look."
"Oh c'mon Rae, how many times do I have to tell you? We are fine and nothing bad is gonna happen." Galiana scolded propping herself up on her elbows. Ravenna still looked unsure and fiddled anxiously.
"Please Galiana I just want some reassurance!" Ravenna pressed. Galiana sighed in defeat and sat up in bed, getting into the lotus position for their meditation. Ravenna did the same and sat across from her. They interlocked hands and began to chant.
"Azarath Metrion Zynthos…" They said in unison. The soon began to levitate and they both began to focus. Ravenna focused closely in on the bad vibe she had received. Her chakra began to faintly glow and at that moment a face appeared in both their minds.
Their eyes snapped open at the same time and a cold chill swept through the room.
"You saw her…?" Ravenna trailed off.
"Blonde hair…" Galiana described.
"Blue eyes…" Ravenna added.
"Just your typical dictating world dominator." Another voice added. The sisters looked in the direction of the voice and gasped. There she was standing right before them. She was smiling maliciously and her blonde hair covered over one of her eyes as she tilted her head. Her hands glowed yellow illuminating the room to some extent. "I like to call myself a typical American though…"
"You're…" Ravenna trailed off in pure shock.
"The ultimate evil? Yea that's me. But my friends call me Terra." She said in mock friendliness. Galiana nudged Ravenna and gave her a look.
"What do you want with us!?" Galiana asked forcefully. Terra chuckled and hid her glowing hands behind her back.
"Me? All I want is some simple revenge." Terra growled through grit teeth as she pressed a button on her wrist while her hands were still behind her back. A large white flash of light blinded the twins before everything just went dark for the both of them.
"Beast Boy!!" Raven yelled as she pounded on his door. She had been pounding on it for the last five minutes with no sign that Beast Boy was awake. She finally gave up and did what she always did. She fazed through the door not caring what she stepped on as she made her way to Beast Boy's bed and began to shake him harshly. "Get up you green dork!" She ordered.
Beast Boy groaned as he rolled over in his bed. He clenched his eyes shut tighter and Raven grit her teeth. She had no time for this. She lifted her left hand while her other hand pinned him down and her left hand glowed dangerously with its dark aura.
"Beast Boy if you don't wake up right now, so help me I'll…" She trailed off to let him imagine his own punishment. He slowly cracked his eyes open and sat up as Raven removed her hand from him.
"Jeez what's the emergency? It's nearly midnight." He muttered as he rubbed one of his eyes. Raven narrowed her violet ones at him.
"The twins; I think they might be in trouble." Raven said. At those words Beast Boy became more alert. Her stood to his feet and automatically reached for a uniform.
"What makes you think that?" He asked as he hastily got dressed. His tone was as serious as hers now.
"I had a bad feeling in me all day and right now it's strong." She said as she headed for the door. He followed her after he had successfully gotten dressed within thirty seconds. It didn't even matter anymore that raven had been watching him the entire time.
Once they were outside his room Raven summoned up her shadow and it swept away the both of them only to have it drop them off at the door of the room they had officially gave to the twins. Raven didn't hesitate to open the door and what she saw didn't make her happy.
The room was silent and the beds were empty and unmade. Raven felt her heart drop and a lump formed in her throat.
"Where are they?" She questioned clenching her fists.
"Oh no…" Beast Boy muttered grabbing her shoulders trying to calm her down. "No, no, no…Raven its okay." He said pulling her into him from behind. He gripped her tightly and rested his shin on top of her head. "Raven…"
"WHERE ARE THEY!!" She screamed. Her powers caused all the windows to shatter instantly and many items began to explode. Beast Boy cringed but still held her tightly. She spun around and wrapped her arms around him burying her face into his chest. This wasn't the first time he had seen her cry but it was the first time he'd seen her so helpless.
Ooh dramatic or at least I thought so. This was a very interesting chapter to write so I hope you enjoyed it and hold onto this because this will probably be the only update for a while. Thank you for reading and Pweez review!
