Ch 6-Boring Day

I'm sure you guys are itching with anticipation on the upcoming events. I won't keep you guys any longer.

The days seemed to form together. There didn't seem like anything could separate them. The days were long and suffocating. The royals were held up in meetings majority of the time. There didn't seem like there was time for any breaks.

Raven spent most of her time meditating in her room. She felt like it was pointless to even leave. It wasn't like she had anyone to talk to anyways. The only people who talked to her were Richard, Kori, and Diana. Bruce talked to her on rare occasions. The others pretty much keep to themselves. Roy still held a grudge over her. Of course she could care less about what he thought.

She escaped into her mind to relax. Nevermore is what she called it. She got it from Edgar Allen Poe's poem called 'The Raven.' It was one of her favorites. When she opened her eyes she was standing on a floating rock.

The sky was black and there wasn't anything for miles. There were these birds that had four red eyes perched on branches and rocks. Raven quietly began walking forward. The rocks moved forward creating a path. Passing through the archway the scenery changed. It showed a patch of flowers stretching wide. A soft hum could be heard up ahead. Walking up closer she could see a pink cloaked figure sitting in the patch.

"Happy," Raven monotoned.

The emotion looked up and smiled wide at her. "Hey Raven. How's it going?"

"We need to talk."

"About what?"

"For starters why did you make me wear that horrible cloak?"

"What? I thought it would be a nice change for you. Didn't Richard like it?"

"That's not the point."

"Why are you getting mad? You needed to look nice for your date."

"It wasn't a date."

"If a man asks a woman out then it's a date."

"He didn't ask me out. It was his mother that made the note and signed his name."

"Hey! A date is a date."

Raven was slowly getting a headache from talking to this emotion. It was real tiring trying to talk sense into this. "Just don't take over again."

"Sure thing Raven."

Happy went back to humming and picking flowers. Raven just shook her head and walked away. She knew Happy's word wasn't that good to uphold. Making her way through another archway she was back where she started except for the maze. The walls were about sky high and there was no way around it. Going through she made it to the end. The scenery then changed. Raven was now standing in a library. There was nothing but rows and rows of books.

Down one row stood a yellow cloaked figure. Raven made her way down and stopped by the figure. Intelligence looked up from the book she was looking at.

"What brings you here?" Intelligence asked.

"I need you to watch over the other emotions so they don't take over my mind again."

"Not a problem."

Raven closed her eyes and opened them to be back in her room. She couldn't afford to have her emotions messing with her subconscious while she was here. Raven needed to keep her distance for when she left.

A knock came to the door. Getting up Raven cracked open the door to see Alfred standing there.

"Yes," Raven said.

"King Bruce would like to speak with you."

Raven lifted an eyebrow at that. She couldn't possibly understand why the king would want to speak with her. It wasn't like she was planning on staying or anything. Quietly she followed Alfred to the king's study. Knocking…a deep 'come in' sounded from inside.

The study was big with a bookcase to the right and a sofa to the left. In the middle sat a large oak desk with two chairs in front. Bruce sat behind the desk looking over some documents. Alfred bowed slightly and left the room. Raven went over and sat in one of the chairs waiting for the king. Bruce looked up once he was finished with the documents.

"You wanted to speak with me," Raven said.

"Yes…I wanted to talk about your parents."

"What about them?'

"Well…for starters…your mother was known as an enchantress."

"Yes she was."

Bruce gave her a stern look. He didn't like the way she could dismiss this. This was something that needed to be taken seriously. Kori was now a part of the family and something like this could ruin her reputation even if they're not related. Raven needed to understand that.

"You don't see a problem with this?"

"To me no. Everyone else seems to. And why do even know this?"

"I had some of our spies dig up some background information about you. It's quite interesting. I'd have to say. Especially when it concerns your father."

"Why the sudden interest in my life?"

"Particularly I wouldn't give it much thought, but it does when it concerns my son."

"And why would it concern him?"

"You know what I mean. I see the way he interacts with you. This could jeopardize this country if your relationship goes any further."

"For there to be a relationship there'd have to be one to begin with. We're only friends."

"Don't play dumb with me. Just make sure you don't ruin him. You're dismissed."

Raven got up from the chair and left the room. She was beyond angry at this point. She couldn't believe what he said to her. Right now she needed to be alone so she could rain in her emotions. Making sure the coast was clear she teleported to her room. Once inside Raven grabbed her mirror and transported inside her mind.

Everything was in total chaos. Timid was crying uncontrollable being comforted by Intelligence. Brave was breaking everything in sight. Anger was going on a rampage while the other emotions were trying to rane her in.

Taking deep breaths Raven tried to calm down. She continued to chant her mantra. Soon everything started to settle down and get back to normal. This wasn't good at all. She needed to leave as soon as possible. She couldn't afford for this to happen again.

A boring day turned out to be not so boring. A lot seems to be happening with Raven. I wonder how Richard would take her leaving.

A/N: I figured you guys would want another chap as soon as possible. The next time I update will probably be next week since I'll be on Thanksgiving break.
