"Are you sure this will work Raven?" Robin asked, his steel toed boots clicking on the metallic floor as he walked over to where Beast Boy laid, his obsessive need to monitor everything kicking in. I looked at him and nodded at him feeling only a little guilty as I spared him from the details of what would happen to me and beast boy if this went all wrong.
"Cyborg would you please read back my instructions to me" I whispered as I sat down and tucked Beast Boys head on my lap, running my fingers tenderly down his forehead feeling his skin burning up.
"You're going to try and break into BB's head and deal with the problem from in there, we are not allowed to remove your contact from BB, seeing as this could cause you to be permanently trapped there while at the same time we are to treat your body while you are in there as nobody here knows what's going to happen to it" Cyborg recited going over his medical equipment and going over everything one final time making sure everything that they might need is in reach and is operational.
"Don't worry friend Raven we will take care of your body while you go get our beloved friend" Starfire chirped smiling next to Cyborg "We know if there's anyone here that can do it…it's you"
"We believe in you Raven, now go get him" Robin said nodding and cracking a small smile
I looked each of them in the eye and nodded my head more determined than ever to bring him back safe and sound, now for them as much as for me "Thank you for believing in me" I whispered as I closed my eyes and took a deep breath and began to chant.
"Morf ym dnim ot sruoy
Morf ruoy dnim ot enim" and almost instantly felt my body fall into a warm but very dark embrace
(Inside Raven)
"so its agreed" a single shadowy body said, only to be met with a choruses of yes's, agreed's, and hell yeah's.
Okay than…this should prove to be most interesting the shadowy figure thought as she pulled up the hood on her yellow cloak and promptly disappeared.
(Inside Beast Boy)
When Raven awoke she found herself sprawled on the ground, surrounded by green as far as the eye could see, everywhere she looked it was plants or trees or vines or some kind of jungle greenery. She could even here a waterfall nearby splashing away merrily. She looked up and was not really surprised to see that it was a clear albeit green sky along with a green sun that shined just like any other celestial body.
"well…let's get this started" she thought to herself as she stood up dusting off her body and trying to decide which way to walk until she noticed a green and purple glow pulsing rather close, she knew that even though the glow seemed close, it could be some distance away, "well no point in loitering here" she told herself as she looked up and focused on her power…and noticed that she couldn't fly.
"That's not quite gonna work here Raven" a voice called from within the jungle "This is my mind and while you may still be able to use your offensive power the only things that can fly here are the things that have wings" a figure said as he walked up and stood at the very edge of the tree line, his body almost blending into the green.
"Beast boy" I whispered reaching out to him, until he started laughing, "no no no the only things me and that coward share is the same skin color, but if you really need to saddle me with a name, than u may call me…" he stopped and thought about it for a second "..Fortis" and with that, he lunged at her yelling "SHOW ME YOUR BRAVERY!"
Even as his fist connected to her chest, Raven realized she hadn't felt any of the pain she was expecting and considering how much force he had put into his punch she was quite surprised, until she looked down and noticed a hand sticking out of her chest clutching the fist mere inches from her own chest. She just watched as the emotion she called Brave pushed the fist back and climbed out of her Raven's body.
"Don't worry Raven" she said after seeing the intense look of anger on her face "all the emotions wanted to see if they could meet their counterparts in here" she turned around and faced Fortis, who had a huge smile on his face "It seems like we're gonna get the opportunity after all" she said as she started cracking her knuckles
"Don't worry about this one, you just keep going and save him, ill take care of this one" she commanded as she dusted off her green cloak and adopted a fighting pose
"Right" Raven said as she ran right past Fortis, his attention fully focused on bravery.
"Why are you doing this Fortis?" she asked as she ran to him and started throwing punches trying to catch him off guard and land a blow
"I don't have a choice beautiful" he said dodging every hit and making her blush at the same time "were being forced to do this by HIM" he said as he started throwing punches of his own "but I wouldn't worry about that right now considering you seem like you have your hands full" as his punched connected to her stomach "plus it seems Raven ran off to my brothers domain I hope she's smart enough to avoid his riddles and his accursed game of chess"
Brave chuckled and managed to deck him in the face "okay fair enough you've got my undivided attention even as she darted forward and slamming a leg into his arm, but he managed to deflect it and pulled her in close and pinned her against a tree she leaned forward and whispered into his ear
"I hope you know I don't plan on holding back" bravery said as she flashed forward, swinging a mighty blow at his face, only to have it blocked and having to block a blow to her solar plexus "I don't either, and I would consider it bad manners if u did" he said grinning as Bravery shifted her stance a little and spun as she lifted her leg in a roundhouse kick ending at Fortis's ribs, he took the blow with a grunt and grabbed her leg, twisting it sideways and spinning her into another tree with enough force to knock the breath out of her,
"He" she wheezed as she ran up and started trading blows with him, each one getting multiple strikes in as they broke apart and looked at each other, Bravery spitting the blood out of her mouth and holding her broken wrist against her chest and Fortis checking the number of ribs he had broken "…definitely 4" he said wincing as he ran his fingers over the fabric of his uniform which was an amalgam of greens.
Fortis looked at her and signed out loud as he looked into the sky "There is another reason I wanted to fight you Brave."
"And why is that" she asked healing her wrist and cracking it back into place
"I fight to know if I should truly put my trust in you to always cover my back and to fight besides me, to know how big or small the gap is between our strength, and well to be frank but because ive always wanted to fight all out against you" he said grinning even as he healed his ribs.
"that's a damn good reason" Bravery shouted standing up, "shall we finish this up than?" she asked
"Yeah, I'm at my limit anyway, and no matter how this ends, I've got my answer" he said straightening up and balling his hand "lets end this"
They both ran towards each other, fists up as Bravery connected with his chest, and Fortis's connected with her chest, each of them dealing massive internal damage and both breaking ribs and both of them falling to the ground and coughing up blood, both of them blacking out at the same time, and both of them with a huge smile on their face's as they held each other's hand their fingers interlocked.
so...was it better?
was it worse?
tellz me...
