Mantra Two: Shroomfield | Family Time

[sarcasm_andbooks]

[Raven hadn't thought much of eating mushrooms for a snack. She was out for a walk when it starts to take effect. And it all starts when she hears what sounds like chanting off in the distance.....

The gem was born of evil's fire.
The gem shall be his portal.
He comes to claim. He comes to sire.
The end of all things mortal.

And the world falls apart. 

Only it's different from last time. Some people seem to be statues like before....but there are people walking around. Some of them familiar looking.

A. Around Town: There is a girl walking around town with a hood pulled up over her head, arms drawn close against her. Like she's hiding from the world. She's also trying to get somewhere as fast as she can and isn't watching where she's going. Watch out, she might just run straight into you.

B. Library: How did she end up in here? Well she thought she saw someone she knew at ran in. Suddenly the place seems filled with chanting. Raven is clutching her arms as she leans against a table. She looks like she's in a great deal of pain.

C. Her house: She made it. 360 Topper street. She's standing on her lawn, looking around in utter shock and horror.]

No....this isn't possible. ....He can't be back....this can't be real.

A.

Oof!

[Sara stumbles back when Raven runs straight into, but manages not to fall down. Worried, she leans in.]

Are you okay?

[sarcasmandbooks.livejournal.com]

[Raven however stumbles but tries to hide even more in her jacket, clasping her arms even tighter against her as she get's her balance back. As though she's trying to hide something on her arms.]

No...No. This isn't real.

[And she looks up to see...]

.....Starfire?

[strayprincess.livejournal.com]

...No. I'm Sara.

[She glances down at Raven's arms, frowning, wondering what the other girl could possibly be trying to conceal there.]

What isn't real? What are you talking about? Are you going to be okay?

[alienfromkansas]

[Hey, he recognizes her. She helped him when he was shrunk, she was one of the people that helped him get back home.

...Wait why is she coming right at hi- ooph there we go. He manages to hold her so they don't fall to the ground, though.]

Uh, are you alright? What are you running from?

[sarcasmandbooks.livejournal.com]

[She wrenches herself out of his touch though. Almost falling back but manages to steady herself in time. She looks up at him.


In sheer and utter terror.]

How are you here?

[alienfromkansas]

Well, I'm pretty sure everybody in this city is asking themselves that question, but that's... not what you mean is it?

Kid, what's wrong? What are you so scared of?

[Peering at Raven as he heads home from work he looks around, then looks at her]

I dunno, but its not your job to make sure the lawn is mowed, right?

[sarcasmandbooks.livejournal.com]

[Looks over at him and then takes a step backwards.]

.......when did you get here.

[boostedfailure.livejournal.com]

Uh, was just walking by actually. Uh, going home from work. Why?

LIBRARY

[webball.livejournal.com]

[Peter sifts through the bookshelves, looking for history books, town ledgers, old blueprints, anything really that has to do with the town and its inception. But he slams down the last book he pulls out: the 12th freaking book on biology in a row. What kind of useless library is this!?]

He looks up when he hears a table nearby rattle and sees a pale girl clutching her sides in obvious pain]

Uh... Hey, are you alright?

[sarcasmandbooks.livejournal.com]

[Holding onto her arms she turns and then quickly fips her hood up, as though trying to hide her face. She looks like she's trying to hide herself inside that jacket.]

It's nothing...

[webball.livejournal.com]

Are...are you sure? I haven't taught an actual class yet, but I'm a teacher... apparently...

So you can... you can trust me. If anything is wrong.

[Well... That's his public service/teaching duty for the day, whether she accepts his offer or not.]

A. Around Town

[equal-shots.livejournal.com]

Oof--

[Kid should watch where he is going. Everyone seems to be acting oddly today, and he isn't sure what to make of it. Regardless, he pays the price for being focused on the architecture of the town. He realizes he's bumped into her rather hard, and frowns.]

My apologies...Are you okay?

[sarcasmandbooks.livejournal.com]

[She get's up off the ground and quickly pulls her hood back up, as though she thinks there's something she needs to hide on her forehead. /there's nothing there.

She then stares at him.]

....Beast boy? .....when did you get here?

[equal-shots.livejournal.com]

[He tilts his head as she quickly pulls the hood back over her head, curious.]

I think you've mistaken me for someone else. I am Death the Kid, not Beast Boy.

C! placeholder since I'm in school.

[notasidedick]

[There's a light touch on her shoulder. He doesn't want to alarm her in anyway.]

Raven...? You aren't looking okay. Did something happen? [He's concerned. He hasn't seen Raven look this terrified in awhile...since...well a long time. At least for him.] I think we should sit down.

[sarcasmandbooks.livejournal.com]

[She looks over and then almost flings herself away, how quickly she backs up.]

Don't touch me! Don't ever touch me!

[And yes Dick, she's staring at you with a dark murderous look, on edge, ready to attack....today is not a good day.]

How did you get here? You're supposed to be dead!

[notasidedick]

Woah! Woah...Raven? [Oh. Okay. Why is he supposed to be dead? Today sucks and nothing makes sense.]

Raven? Calm down. I'm just trying to make sure you're okay. I didn't piss you off somehow did I?

[Angry younger teammate is not good. Especially when it looks like she's ready to take him down for something he probably didn't do.]

[gogoboots]

[She had just stepped out onto the porch when Raven arrives. She blinks when she sees the girl standing there, stepping down onto the first step of the porch]

Raven? Everything okay?

[sarcasmandbooks.livejournal.com]

[Raven turns around. Annnnd for once actually see's a normal person.]

Alright? Look around. Does this look alright to you?

[....well yes Raven. To her it would.]

[gogoboots]

[That gets a raised eyebrow]

Well no. But that's because we're trapped in the 1950s. Otherwise everything looks the same as it always does. What's going on with you? [She doesn't know Raven all that well but this is a lot different than the behavior she's seen in the girl these past couple weeks]

(Tara's just stumbled out of her house, afraid and confused beyond measure. Her not!dad is freaking out in the house, and she herself has no idea why. They had just had breakfast (mushroom omelet) when he suddenly started yelling and moaning about someone before he completely flipped out and started hiding in the cupboard. Tara herself has been seeing things, but they aren't on the same level as scary as her house mate must be experiencing. The hallucinations to her are nothing more than blurred images, and the voices are too faded to clearly make out what they're saying. But she sees a flash of green skin, something black and orange, and she can tell by their voices that they're angry. She's still scared about what's going on.

So when she sees Raven on the lawn just standing there, she immediately runs over. She's a Teen Titan. She should know what to do.)

Raven!! You have to help me!

[sarcasmandbooks.livejournal.com]

[Raven turns and then.....]


Terra?

[brbgoing2russia.livejournal.com]

Uh, Raven? What's with the....

[sarcasmandbooks.livejournal.com]

[Looks over and backs up even more. Still holding onto her arms. She looks terrified.]
