Switched
"I feel – well my body just feels so... bizarre" murmured Beast Boy to himself under his breath. Slowly regaining his consciousness to the hazy surroundings around him. His vision became more deteriorated and scrunched his face by the bright hue of white which overwhelmed his weary eyes. He tried to make out the mysteries silhouette in front of him but the more he tried to solve the conundrum the more his head started to hurt. The sudden feeling of faintness and uneasiness flushed through his veins making his body feel fragile and woozy. He groaned out curses and clutched firmly onto his head at the new pounding headache and squeezed his eyes shut. The changeling slowly blinked a few times as his body and psyche moderately assimilated to the surreal feelings around him.
He delicately massaged his temples in hoping to cease the pain but soon perceived his hands were no longer a deep shade of verdant nor recalling to ever have long silky straight sombre purple hair. Was he dreaming? Hallucinating? Or trapped in someones illusion? His subconscious mind was suddenly engulfed with anxiety and dismay, causing the nearest chair located to detonate into small fragments by a coal-black energy due to an uproar of emotions. The changelings eyes rose in angsty by the sudden explosion which ensued more items to split in half. Did Raven do that? Where was she? So many thoughts swarmed through his mind. Why did he felt strange as if he wasn't in his own body? Something wasn't quite right and he couldn't put his finger on it. His eyes darted off examining and analysing what he was seeing - a dark blue cloak that was hanging off his shoulders and a black leotard outfit which hugged the slim feminine body perfectly.
Strange... This is not what I wear... Nor having a slim small body.
His eyes wandered off into the figure in front of him, getting a vivid image to which he was now looking at - a large well-built muscular green physique.
Wait. What?
"Oh, you finally decided to wake up" spoke the green figure in Ravens voice. The changeling eyes narrowed in dubiety. He couldn't believe he was looking at himself speaking in Ravens voice. Beast Boy was ninety-nine point nine percent sure he was dreaming or at least hallucinating. This couldn't be true. This couldn't be real life. No this couldn't...
"Raven what on earth did you do?" Demanded Beast Boy.
"What? You said you wanted to know what's it like to have my powers" retorted Raven.
Shit. That's right. He recollected the moments of him bombarding Raven of what was it like to have her powers and to physically become her. Just to take a glance of what's it like to be the 'princess of darkness'. The moment of Raven chanting a spell flashed through his eyes and the rest was just a blur.
"Yeah but I didn't mean to literally switch bodies!" He blurted in vexation. Beast Boy was drowned in chaotic emotions which caused the small wooden table to splinter into millions of pieces.
A distressed Beast Boy spat "Raven how do I control your powers? Before I break more stuff... Hurry!"
"Beast Boy… Calm. My powers are controlled by emotions. The calmer you are the more you'll be able to control my powers" ensured Raven. "Just concentrate on nothing but your breathing, it'll help to calm you down"
Beast Boy listened and started to concentrate on his breathing. Inhaling in and out, slowly trying to adjust and to be one with her powers. "Peace. Love. Tranquility." He softly muttered to himself. "Peace. Love. Tranquility." He repeated as if it became his own mantra. The changeling could feel his rapid heart beat and muscles relaxing.
"Rae do you how long this will last?"
"About two hours" spoke a smiling Raven. It was the first time he had seen her properly smile and showing a tint of her emotions. Although it was strange sight to grasp because he wished to see a smiling Raven in her body. But to hear the jovial tone in her voice was just enough for the changeling to cherish.
"I guess you like being me huh Raven?" He said while wiggling his eyebrows. "You want me to explain how I use my powers to turn into animals?"
"No need I figured that out own my own"
"Well then, I guess I kinda figured out how to use your powers... we could both have fun with our new powers for two hours" smirked Beast Boy.
