Chapter Three: The Sensual Instigator
(Nevermore)
“I don't recall setting you and your two other sisters free,” Raven said sternly.
“I'm afraid you're wrong Raven,” Reason interjected, “Your reading of Beast Boy's journal was the catalyst that freed these three emotions you kept deep inside your heart for so long. This is the result of what you deeply felt when you took Beast Boy's words into your heart. You started feeling the contained love you already developed for him, the sealed desires to do things with him and believe or not, you also starting having lustful feelings for him which was why you were staring at him earlier while he was exercising in the training room. It was YOU from your own heart who released these three emotions.”
Raven clenched her fists and let out a small growl from her mouth in the refusal to believe the truth Reason was telling her straight, causing Timid to shy away a bit.
“Hmph,” snorted Envy with contempt having her arms crossed over her chest, wearing an aqua green cloak, “I wished all of us could be just as capable of explaining things like that with such clarity. It's not fair!”
“Oh please,” remarked Cocky, who was clad in a reddish brown cloak, “I can do just as good a job as Reason, if not better!”
“You may think so,” Timid said nervously, “But for what it's worth, Raven's doesn't look pleased with Reason now.”
Rudeness, wearing an orange cloak, belched loudly with a grin on her face, “I know, and from the looks of it, things just might get interesting now.”
“On the contrary,” Kindness argued, who was clad in a light bronze-colored cloak, “It would better if more respect and meekness were shown.”
“Whatever,” Rudeness answered with disinterest.
“Is this meeting over yet,” asked Boredom, clad in a dull dark gray cloak.
“Didn't we told you it was no use lying to yourself sweety,” Lust said with a victorious smile.
“That we did,” replied Desire, “But unlike Lust, I have different agendas and goals I wish to fulfill with friends and all, including Beast Boy! There's so many things that you refrained yourself from doing over the past number of years that you missed on feelings and fun sensations you could have treasured. Yes you've convinced yourself that it was for the good of all, but was it healthy to perpetually deny yourself joys and fun times you could have experienced with friends, allies and Beast Boy?”
“In case you've forgotten,” Raven interjected, “My powers are dangerous and are affected by what I feel for anyone or anything! That's why I refrained myself from feeling emotions! I believe Love made that point crystal clear already!”
“Yes she did,” Desire continued, “But if I may, I like to bring up another point. Your powers are also affected when you deny what you feel. Wasn't that so after what happened when you and your friends watched that really scary movie Beast Boy rented a few years ago? You denied you were afraid, so as a result, that denied fear took form and started terrorizing Titan Tower, and it wouldn't stop until you admitted to yourself that you were afraid. My point, you learn to handle and control your powers better when you accept what you feel. In the past, however, you did allow yourself to participate a few activities your friends were engaged in and nothing blew up, correct? And during that time Malchior was around, you were displaying emotions WITHOUT blowing up a single thing. You were in complete control then. In fact, you were even humming to yourself and Beast Boy saw this, am I right?”
Raven wanted to counter Desire's argument, but found that she couldn't come up with anything to say. She knew her words rang a bell of truth to them, several bells for that matter.
“Be that as it may sister,” Lust cut in, “But I have plans of my own I seek to fulfill solely with Beast Boy. And trust me, I'm more than willing to see them thru with that gorgeous green hunk of man.”
Raven definitely didn't like the sound of her voice no more than her proclamation.
“Whatever it is that you're contemplating, you will NOT see them thru,” Raven warned sharply. Smirking seductively, Lust walked over to Raven while moving her hips side to side. Soon they were face-to-face with each other with Raven's eyes being narrowed.
"My dear Raven,” Lust answered assuredly, “You can only delay the inevitable for so long, but I promise you that I'll make a new woman out of you yet.”
Femininity, who was clad in a dark shade pink cloak, looked at Lust questionably. She went over to Love and stood next to her.
“This new version of Raven is a real loose cannon,” Femininity commented, “And seeing that she came from Raven's heart like both you and Desire, it's clear that she will make quite an effort in carrying out what she seeks to accomplish.”
“Yes I'm aware that,” Love replied, “What holds true is that wherever love for a person is directed, Desire and Lust will follow. And since Raven has affections for Beast Boy, Lust will capitalize on it.”
Femininity continued, “Well whatever Lust has in mind in regards to “making a new woman” out of Raven, I for one would like Raven maintain her self-respect and dignity.”
Love nodded in agreement before she stepped forward towards Lust.
“Lust that's quite enough,” Love spoke. Lust turned to Love and replied, “C'mon Love! You know as much as I do that it's about time us three sisters change how things operate around here! I for one am tired of the dull, sensation-less and unfeeling life Raven forces all of us to live under! The time for change is now!”
“Uuh,” Lazy, wearing a dull whitish blue cloak and using it as a blanket while resting on a flat cushion and pillow, tiredly cut it, “Will this change require much work and effort?”
“Pleasurable work and effort really,” Lust replied with a grin.
“I'm warning you Lust,” Raven said sharply, “If you step out of line, I'll-”
“You'll what,” Lust cut in, “Bind and hand-cuff me...Now that I think about it, it sounds like a little kinky fun I wouldn't mind doing with Beast Boy you know.”
Raven winced at the thought.
“Lust stop instigating trouble,” Love advised, “Yes we will help change things around here, but we'll do so with the help of Femininity, Knowledge and Reason.”
“You can't be serious,” Lust scoffed, “Those stiffs are as fun as a cold bath.”
“Sounds more like the kind of fun that you're currently in need of,” Sarcasm remarked.
“Look who's talking,” Lust snorted as she turned to Sarcasm, “The one who mostly has jokes and snide remarks to make on Beast Boy as if there's no other person to talk about.”
Sarcasm frowned and blushed, wanting to say something, but decided against it. Turning back to Raven, Lust stated tauntingly, “You lust and dream about Beast Boy. You do so almost every night. I know, because I'm living testimony to it.”
“Back off,” Raven warned.
“You want him and I know you do,” Lust taunted, “Hell, even Happy and Bravery are more than ready to go a few of rounds with him! No doubt Cocky thinks she could last longer than any of us here!”
Happy, Bravery and Cocky kept quiet as they pulled their hoods over their heads to hide their blushing faces.
“You've been here for a short while and already I can't stand you no more than I can tolerate Rage,” Raven stated with a risen voice.
“When you read from Beast Boy's journal that he sees you as beautiful, you felt feelings unlike any other. It went far beyond what Malchior said of you. And personally I don't know what you saw in that fucking bastard who used and played us like a harmonica. He was the total opposite of Beast Boy. And after all the things Beast Boy has done for you, after how he's been there for you during good and bad times, I think it's time you've shown him your appreciation.”
“Lust,” Love called out to her sister.
“When Beast Boy sees the changes in you my dear Raven,” Lust continued totally ignoring Love, “I'm certain he'll love what he sees with the want to be with you all the more. And when he does decides to have you in his bed, know that we all will gladly go along with it whatever he wishes to do with us."
Raven slapped Lust in front of the entire assembly. Everyone gasped. There was a short moment of silence as they waited for what might happen next. Lust simply rubbed her left cheek and looked over at Raven who was giving her a death glare that would have frightened anyone else.
“Shit,” Bravery cursed, “I'm the bold one here, but damn! I remember when Rage stepped up to Raven in strong defiance and look what became of her.”
“Shut the fuck up,” Rage commanded darkly to Bravery with an inhuman voice. Bravery only looked at her mockingly with no signs of fear.
“You're telling me,” retorted Timid while cowering from Rage's anger behind Bravery in spite of the fact that Rage, the four-red eyed embodiment of Raven's pure hatred, anger and vicious maliciousness, was obviously cuffed and bounded with locked chains.
“You too scared to do anything...,” replied Lazy as she yawned and shifted to the other side of the cushion she was lying on, “...I just don't feel like doing much of anything...work related.”
“You may deny it now or even tomorrow,” Lust answered with a smirk while caressing where she was struck, “But the truth is the truth, you can't deny it forever. Lately you've stole a few glances and stared at Beast Boy here and there, admiring how he's now taller than you and has physically changed and matured over the years. Even earlier today you were staring at Beast Boy with wonder as he was exercising. If anything, bookworm Knowledge kept tabs about this.”
Raven looked over at Knowledge who slightly lowered her head, trying to hide a blush that was creeping out. Turning back to Lust, Raven looked back at her with an expression of annoyance and frustration, and asked, “Is pleasure and sex all you think about?”
“Just the right question to ask of someone named “Lust”,” remarked Sarcasm with a smirk.
“Shut up,” Raven sternly said to Sarcasm.
“Sarcasm did ask a valid question Raven,” Lust answered back mockingly, “But I figured that you of all of us should the answer to your own question. After all, every essence of me is part of you. So the question to be asked of you should be: is pleasure and sex all YOU think about?”
Raven was now feeling more irritation from Lust than she had earlier.
“Lust,” Desire now stepped in after her long silence, “Don't you think you've said enough for one day?”
“Actually,” Lust replied, “There are a couple of more things I wish to share with all of you.”
“And that would be,” Knowledge asked.
“Knowing you Knowledge,” Lust said with a smile, “You might want to take notes, so pull out your pen and notepad.”
“Why,” Reason asked.
That was when Lust started describing in detail about how mature, big and strong and handsome Beast Boy became over the years. She also went onto describe how the feel of his skin and strong body against Raven's would most possibly feel like. Her choice of descriptive words, complemented with her mixed voice of softness and longing, about his physique from head to toe and how his body would possibly feel like caused Raven and all of her other personalities and emotions to blush bright red.
“Wow,” exclaim Happy with a bright red-face.
“Fascinating,” was the only word Reason was able to voice out with a blush glowing on her cheeks.
“Such a colorful vocabulary,” Knowledge commented with a bright red blush on her face.
“Thanks,” Lust stated after overhearing what her fellow emotions said, “I know you all liked what you've heard as much as Raven have, although she won't let herself admit it.”
“Are you finished,” Raven asked in a monotone voice, forcing the blush on her face to die down.
“Far from it girlfriend,” Lust answered seductively, “I have yet to begin my plans for you and the rest of us, all of which involves that delicious Beast Boy we want so badly.”
Raven cringed at the tone of Lust's voice and at what she was contemplating.
I think it's time I've gotten out of here. I think I've spent too much time finding out what's going on in my mind for one day, Raven thought as hurriedly chanted her incantation, transporting herself back to her room where she originally was...
Opening her eyes, Raven found that she was back in her room.
“Horny little hussy,” Raven said aloud in disgust to no one in particular, “I CAN'T believe that she's a part of me! Just the thought of it makes me nauseous...I really ought to find others means of calming my emotions.”
I'm sure Beast Boy would be more than willing to help you out with that, a voice in her mind said slyly, After all he did help you deal with Rage and Malchior.
Raven sighed in irritation knowing from whom that voice came from.
“Love, Desire, and Lust...” Raven said to herself in an undertone, “Why do I suspect that those three will bring me grief?”
Perhaps you're just afraid to experience and accept new emotions and desires. Just give it some time. With the help of Knowledge, Femininity and myself, you'll grow to accept and control these new emotions.
This voice was obviously Reason's.
“Seems unlikely,” Raven replied unconvinced in an undertone.
