Teen Titans: Saurian Surprise

Chapter Two

----------------------------------------------

Mischief and Mirrors

---------------------------------------------


Titans Tower

The Common Room


Raven was seated on the sofa, quietly reading a book to herself after some much-needed meditation. It had been a few days since the dinosaur arrived and brought into the mansion to live. The saurian creature, while not as destructive as one might expect, still did some damage to their home such as knocking over various objects. That included knocking over her cup of tea at breakfast and devouring a good portion of their food supplies.

However, none of that mattered to Raven, nor did it seem to bother her. What truly irked her the most was that the dinosaur was always seeking her company and attention, utilizing both affectionate and playful gestures in an attempt to reach out to her. It was almost like having a second Beast Boy around the Tower, always trying to make her smile or include her in all their activities. The only difference was that she could at least intimidate and/or threaten Beast Boy into leaving her alone, something that she couldn't accomplish with the saurian.

Speaking of the dinosaur, she was quite surprised that it didn't show up yet. The last time she had recalled seeing the creature was this morning when it was with Beast Boy, Cyborg and Starfire. She was just thankful that she was given some peace and alone time. It wouldn't last forever, this much Raven knew. And she was determined to take advantage of the situation. It would only be a matter of time before her friends and the saurian returned.

Skreeeeoongk!

Speak of the dinosaur, and it shall appear. Releasing a heavy sigh, Raven slowly lowered her book until her eyes could look upon a familiar, unwelcome saurian who had decided to disrupt her peaceful time alone. It was only a matter of time before it came to an end. She realized this, but it didn't mean she would cease her current activity just to acknowledge or cater to the saurian. She gave the Godzillasaur one last look before raising her novel back up in its original position, hiding her face from the playful saurian.

"Go away.", Raven orders in her usual monotone.

"Hey!", Raven gasped as the novel was plucked out from her hands without so much as a warning.

She instantly discovered the identity of her book thief, for it could only be that of the mischievous saurian. The creature held the novel gently within its toothy maw, its long tail swishing playfully back and forth as it stared at the gothic sorceress. She had to give the dinosaur a small amount of credit for such a risky move. Only Beast Boy was brave enough, or foolish enough, to take away one of her novels as she was reading it. Still, she was in no mood to be dealing with this. And with intent on getting her book back, Raven got off the couch, walked up to the saurian, grabbed the book within her grasp and proceeded to have a tug-of-war match with the dinosaur.

"Let go of it! My novels are not for you to chew on!", Raven demanded, digging her heels in to the floor as she struggled to free her novel from the jaws of the playful Godzillasaur.

Suddenly, just as Raven was beginning to pull with all her might, Godzilla Jr. releases his toothy grip on the novel. The result of this unexpected release sends Raven crashing to the floor, her very own momentum used against her. Upon righting herself in a sitting position on the floor, an exasperated scowl appeared on her features, her eyes narrowing into slits as she glared at the saurian looming over her. The creature merely lowered its head down, releasing a low playful growl and proceeding to nuzzle Raven's face affectionately with its muzzle. A few seconds later, unable to contain her suppressed emotional outrage any longer, Raven lets out an angry outburst that is directed solely at the Godzillasaur.

"Why can't you just leave me alone?!", Raven scolded harshly, violently pushing the saurian's head away as she yelled.

Godzilla Jr. releases a low, sorrowful cry and proceeds to take a couple of steps away from Raven, its head lowered as a sad expression adorned the creature's face. It was upon seeing the dinosaur's reaction did Raven's anger disappear, only to be replaced by guilt. She didn't intend to hurt the saurian's feelings, not in the least. She just wanted some time to be by herself. It wasn't the Godzillasaur's fault for wanting her attention and affection, two things that she wasn't particularly known often for regarding anyone or anything. She knew what had to be done, even if a part of her was reluctant to do so in this matter.

Rising to her feet, Raven walks over to the Godzillasaur and gently begins caressing its smooth, scaly muzzle with her delicate hands. The saurian perked up a little bit, a low rumbling purr coming from within its throat and chest as Raven continued to pet the dinosaur. She hated to admit it, even to herself, but she was slowly starting to accept the saurian creature's presence in her life.

"I'm sorry.", Raven apologized in a low, sincere tone of voice.

"There you are, Junior! I was looking for you. You were spending the quality time with friend Raven, were you not?", Starfire stated in proclamation as she entered the room, softly landing next to the saurian who eagerly greeted her.

"'Junior'?", Raven inquired with a raised eyebrow.

"We haven't decided on a name for him yet. When he accidentally knocked over Cyborg's car, Cyborg said I was to take Junior out so that he could fix his transportation unit without it becoming damaged again.", Starfire explains.

"So... you gave him a temporary name for the time being?", Raven asks, not really interested in the topic but entering the conversation for her friend's sake.

"Yes! Is it not glorious?", Starfire said, her voice joyful and optimistic as per usual.

"Sure. Whatever. Since you found Junior, you can take him away. I've spent enough time with him for today.", Raven replied, walking over to the couch and sitting down as she prepared to meditate.

"Follow me, little one. We shall go to my room where you and Silkie can play.", Starfire said, focusing her gaze on the saurian, understanding that Raven desired to be left alone at this particular point in time.

Godzilla Junior spares one last look back at Raven before following Starfire out of the room. On their way to the Tamaranian Princess' room, the attention of the saurian drifted toward that of a door to another room. Being naturally curious by nature, the Godzillasaur proceeds to approach. It is only when Starfire comes in between him and the door to the other room that Godzilla Jr. stops dead in his tracks.

"No, Junior. That is friend Raven's room. You cannot enter there. She would not be pleased if you were to enter it without her permission.", Starfire informs, persuading the saurian to follow her and stay out of the room of the dark sorceress.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Several hours pass by at Titans Tower, with most of the teens busy with their various activities. Beast Boy and Cyborg were playing video games in the common room, Raven was on the roof meditating, and Starfire was in her room taking an afternoon nap with Godzilla Jr. and Silkie. However, unknown to the sleeping Tamaranian Princess, Godzilla Junior quietly exits her room and proceeds to wonder and explore its adoptive home. During its exploration of the tower, the saurian comes across the room which had a familiar scent, a room that belonged to none other than Raven.

Curious and wanting to seek the dark sorceress, Godzilla Jr. nudges the door open and enters without so much as a second thought. He did not find Raven, despite the room carrying her scent within it, but he nonetheless was eager to explore these new surroundings. His nostrils inhale the scents that lingered in the room, his eyes exploring everything as he scanned the surroundings. Then, suddenly, something caught his fiery ember-hued eyes.

It was a mirror. A unique one that Raven had in her possession. It's far more than it appeared. It lay resting atop the stand, awaiting use from its dark sorceress. Curiosity intrigued, Godzilla Jr. cautiously approaches the stand before coming to a stop, his eyes gazing down into the mirror.

It was a mistake. The mirror began to glow with radiant light before dark energy tendrils reach out, grasping Godzilla Junior in several sets of ebony clawed hands. Panic finally sets in, but it was too late. Before he can even unleash a cry for help, Godzilla Jr. is pulled in to the portal within the mirror.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

An Island in the Pacific Ocean

Thousands of Miles from Jump City


From the ocean depths a titan of unimaginable power rises, his three tall rows of silver dorsal spikes splitting the surface of the ocean waves. Water cascades off of his armored, charcoal-gray flesh as he moves towards the tiny isle. His tail smashes down upon the waters of the ocean, creating waves in his wake. His footsteps shake the entire landmass, his bulk and sheer size like that of a living mountain.

No weapon can harm him, the humans and their most powerful heroes are nothing but insignificant gnats when compared to him. He is the most powerful, unpredictable and fearsome creature on the entire planet. Some claim that he is Death, destroyer of worlds. Others say that he is the right hand of God. He is the King of the Monsters. He is... Godzilla.

This island is his home, as much a part of his territory as the entire planet. And it is here where his only offspring, the only one of his kind, resides when he ventures off into the world. But something is wrong. There is no response to his presence, no sign that his child is near. Where is Godzilla Junior?

GRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNK!

The entire island quakes, almost as if a massive eruption is about to occur. The thunderous roar can be heard for hundreds of miles. Instinct and the determination of a father set in, causing Godzilla to return to the sea. He would find his son, their psychic link providing him the means to track down and locate his offspring. One thing was certain.

Nothing was going to stand in his way!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Skreeeeeeeonk!

Godzilla Junior crashes down to a rocky pathway after being expelled from the swirling vortex, his impact sending up a huge cloud of dust. Quickly rising to his feet, his fiery ember irises scan this strange place he found himself in. The skies were dark indigo, with floating planet-sized landmasses floating in the distance. The saurian releases several cries, attempting to call out to someone, anyone who would be able to help him find his way around in this place. The creature didn't receive any response.

Unleashing one final cry, Godzilla Jr. proceeds to wonder down the path, a sorrow whimper escaping out from his toothy maw. Moments later, he noticed something not too far away, causing him to increase his pace. Upon reaching the destination it is revealed to be a portal. Wary of his last encounter with the gateway through Raven's mirror, the saurian cautiously approaches the portal. Once he is certain that it isn't dangerous, Godzilla Junior walks through the portal. When he fully enters the gateway, Godzilla Jr. is surprised to find himself in paradise.

It was an island, similar to the one in the Pacific where he and his father live. However, being the intelligent saurian that he is, Godzilla Jr. immediately noticed and knew that this wasn't his island home. All the leaves and plant life was green and soft violet-purple in color, the sand beneath his feet was a golden mixed with soft purple, the waters of the ocean were purple-azure, and even the clouds in the sky were soft purple. This wasn't his home, but it was still very comforting to him. It made him think of his father, who was probably off searching for him at this very moment.

Godzilla Junior's thoughts are disrupted as his keen sense of hearing detects something, a sound similar to giggling coming from the beach. It couldn't be no more than several hundred meters away from his current location. And being the curious saurian that he is, Godzilla Jr. decides to investigate. He discovers a young woman sitting under the shade of a large palm tree, looking through a very large green book.

Moving in closer, Godzilla Junior decides to get a better look at the young woman. Upon closer inspection, it appears to be Raven. However, it is not. True, she did look like Raven and wore a hooded cloak, but her attire was of a soft violet instead of blue. She is one of Raven's emotions, known to the other emotions as Affection.

Affection stares down at a picture of Beast Boy and Raven at the fair, releasing a dreamy sigh as her fingers gently caress the spot where Beast Boy is pictured. She then kisses the spot where Beast Boy was pictured before closing the green book shut. It was then that Affection rose to her feet and turned, her eyes briefly widening in surprise only for them to return to normal as a gentle smile crossed her lovely features.

"Hello there. Where did you come from?", Affection greets in a soft tone of voice, taking a step towards the saurian even as Godzilla Junior took a hesitant step away.

"Don't be afraid. I won't hurt you.", Affection assures, her voice as soothing and gentle as a summer breeze.

Affection reaches her right hand out, allowing the saurian to intake her scent. Then, without hesitation, Godzilla Junior lowers his head close to Affection's face. He then resumes to gently nuzzled Affection with his head and muzzle, the gesture causing the emotion's smile to grow. This is the kind of attention and affection the saurian wanted from the real Raven, but for now he was more than willing to accept Affection as a temporary replacement.

"You're an affectionate one, aren't you?", Affection chuckles, caressing Godzilla Junior's jawline as she rested her forehead against the dinosaur's scaly skull.

It was at this precise instant that Affection thought of a brilliant idea. She enjoyed the presence of this saurian creature who entered her realm. Perhaps the other emotions would as well. And she knew exactly which emotion needed this kind of comfort. She would be very hesitant, even frightened at first, but Affection had a feeling that Godzilla Junior could be just what the emotion needed: a friend.

"Would you like to meet the others?", Affection asks as her violet orbs stared at the fiery ember eyes of the Godzillasaur, sensing that the saurian could understand her as he released his familiar cry.

Skreeeonk!

"I'll take that as a 'yes'.", Affection giggled, teleporting herself and the saurian to the next gateway to another emotion's realm.
Author's Notes

What's to come next chapter? Well, thanks to Affection, Godzilla Jr. is going to meet more of Raven's emotions, with Timid being the second emotion to meet the saurian. And don't worry, BBxRae fans! There is going to be plenty (a lot) of BBxRae goodness to come! For example, wait until Beast Boy is brought into the mirror with Raven... and has very interesting interactions with Raven's emotions. Don't miss out!

P.S.- Godzilla looks similar to Matt Frank's Godzilla: Legends design and/or the Heisei incarnation.
