The maze was complicated, walls a bluish grey. Once in the maze one could not blast their way through it or fly out of it. That would defeat the maze's purpose. The maze was large and extremely complicated, and was riddled with dead ends. The walls of it were tall, easily ten feet or so. Far too high for a normal person to jump. It had a slight eery feel to it, as most things she created with her magic tended to have. The walls were solid, thankfully. Raven have been worried that she would pull them up wrong and they would be fragile.
Throughout the maze different versions of Raven were sprinkled through it, alternately making their way towards the boy in it, or waiting for him to come to them. They were all there, and they knew it. They just had to make sure they ran into Seth before Rage did.
Being true to form, pink Raven made her way to Seth first. He was in the very center of the maze. She giggled lightly, alternating fromt he heels of her feet to the balls of her feet in a simple motion. "Hi There! I've been looking all over for you!" She said with a giggle.

Now away from the part of his mind that was collapsing Seth felt much better, stable and less afraid while was good since there seemed to be a pink robed Rachel giggling at him "Um Hey?" Seth looked about at the maze. She had sent him here to protect him from whatever was going on.
Returning his attention to Pink "I'm Seth, who would you be?" This pink robed Rachel was not acting like the Rachel he knew at all even if she looked exactly the same. Body language as well as attitude was totally reversed more or less. Running his hand along a wall of the maze the boy was actually impressed that she had created this inside his own thoughts "Shes really something huh? Um You are.....I can see this being slightly confusing."
Confusing was a bit of an understatement, whatever Rachel was, the guys with guns and that stupid Dr Light who started all this off in the first place. Was this all to do with him? No, that didn't make much sense as Seth would never have done this to himself or dressed up Raven in clothes like that if it was a dream.

"I'm Happy Raven. Or at least that's what Cyborg and Beast Boy call me!" she said with a giggle. She looked watched the boy as he admired the maze. Raven had really made this one like timids. Happy Raven had to admit she was impressed too, though she knew that pulled the emotions in here with it was not her intention.
"Raven more or less accidently pulled her emotions into the maze when she created it. We have one like this in out head and if I'm right there's a particularly nasty guard at the end. Though I'll doubt you'll want to get out of here until she gived th Ok anyways." She explained. Her words ran together quickly as she spoke. She was a little excited. She'd never been inside someone else's head before and it was sooo cool. She wondered where the other emotions were at the time. She could really use wisdom to help her explain what all was going on here. She was the happy emotion and was therefore not the best at explaining thing. All of the others were such slowpokes sometimes. She wasn't sure who to expect next.

"Happy Raven?" Seth couldn't help but grin, the pink girl was contagious "Raven is Rachel right?" he asked still looking about but soon had his full attention back on Happy Raven "Its very weird seeing you smile so much, she must hide you away pretty well."
Ok, Seth mused to himself. Rachel was some sort of magic person and had trapped him in a maze inside his own head but had accidentally left part of herself in here with him. A happy part it seemed, he couldn't help but feel a bit smug that that was the part she had left to look after him. Granted it probably had nothing to do with him but he did like the idea that she had decided that was the bit to share with him.
"We can't stand about here though, shes trying to help me. I really should be trying to help too." Seth said thoughtfully though truthfully he had no idea how he could help but the idea of just sitting about waiting wasn't his sort of thing.

"Yep!" She said with a smile. She didn't know really how to explain to him that Rachel was more of a false name than a Raven was, but she was sure someone else could do it better. She looked around, still no sign of the others. She wondered breifly if the others got caught up with rage or something. It hadn't been trying to take control of Raven lately so it shouldn't be too hard to manage.
"Well....Raven wouldn't like it if we were to let you out of here, but i guess we could go looking for the others." She said with a giggle, as he suggested they do something. Then, if she needed them they would be all together in one place. Besides it might be funny for him to see the rest of Raven's personalities. She giggled lightly at the though.
"Well come on!" She said, skipping towards a pathway. She was pretty sure it wasn't the way out, but she did know that one of the others was in this direction. When he didn't follow her right away, she turned to look at him, stopping her skipping. "You said you wanted to do something so let go!" She said.

"looking for the others? You mean theres more than you here?" Seth said moving after the pink robed one "I can see this getting weird but cool all at the same time." It was insane watching Raven skip, if there had been one thing that he would have said the goth girl would never do it would be skipping. It just was so out of character for her yet there was something about seeing her so carefree that was uplifting. "So if I am getting this right, your the part of Rachel, Raven...that makes her happy? Does that mean that you know all the stuff that makes her smile, cause some hints would be really good to have!" Seth smiled and did his best to keep up with the skipping pink madness "Is that allowed? Cause I'd really like to see her smile more. Though now I'm worried she might see that as cheating or something." Scrunching up his face in thought Seth considered the thought that it might annoy Rachel that he got insider information.

Another robed figure decended behind them, landing carefully. "Raven must supress her emotions to some degree. Her abilities can become out of control if she lets herself to feel without hesitation." It was a yellow robed bespectacled version of Raven. Wisdom. She looked towards the pink robed emotion who waved to her.
"It's not as bad as it used to be though." Happy said with a cheerful tone. She was quite glad that Raven was able to feel to some degree now. Before most of her emotions, especially the positive ones, were regulated greatly. As she became friends with the Titans and destroyed Trigon they had been let out far more often. It was something that pleased her greatly.
"Happy seems to have a good idea for once. It would be good to gather as many of us as possible before we run into rage." Wisdom warned. She had a strange feeling that this was not going to be fun if they were unable to locate some of the more fight-ready emotions before they found rage.
"Gosh why do you have to be such a buzz kill. Finding the rest of us is going to be fun!" She said, hopping up and down quickly. Wisdom looked around the maze quizzicly. She took a left, not really sure how to get through the maze. She was knowledge but the maze was not her domain. Happy took Seth's hand and skipped after Wisdom, hoping the emotion had a better idea of where they were than she did.

When the next Raven showed up Seth tilted his head trying to work out which one this might be, was sort of like meeting the cute seven dwarves minus the beards and mining. Feel without hesitation, Seth had to wonder what that might mean but now that he gave it a bit of thought "The lights in the coffee shop, she did that by accident. Guess I have to be careful where I say shes cute huh?"
With the Pink one now holding his hand he couldn't help but feel a little self conscious, she was holding his hand. Raven was holding his hand, OK not quite her but close enough. The first time he had ever held a girls hand and it was the happiest part. What made it worse was the fact he knew that he had to be focused on what was going on inside his own head. He really hoped that the real Raven was OK.
"I'm guessing Raven angry is a really bad thing then?" That would make sense, it seemed that her repressed emotions were stronger and far more lively than say the ones she indulged like the yellow one which Seth guessed was her intelligence or something like that.

"Rage sometimes has fits. She takes to form of Raven's father and tries to take over. You met Dr. Light. Well the reason he acted that way towards Raven, was the last time Rage threw a fit she couldn't supress her. She sort of drove him insane without realizing it. He tends to sort of curl up into the fetal position and ask to be thrown in jail" Wisdom explained. She knew Happy would not approve, and neither would Timid but the logical part of her felt she needed to explain these things to him. He needed to know what he might be up against. None of them knew how Rage would react to being outside of Raven's head.
"At coffee there were lots emotions that were running haywire!" Happy said with a giggle, as if she thought it was funny. "I was let out a lot, but I wasn't the only emotion in control." She added.
"Timid, Happy, Affection, and I were all there all at once and her destroying things, well that hasn't happened in a while." She said. Wisdom was being careful with what she was saying. She didn't want to give away anything Raven would not be comfortable with.

"Raven's father?" Seth said confused "Doesn't he live far away or something, was he abusive?" That would explain why part of Raven used it against her.Bad memories or something, though it was clear from the other two's reaction that Rage was something best avoided. Was probably best he took their advice.
The grin on his face when Happy and Wisdom told him about who else had been present for the coffee date was unmistakable but the teen felt it best to not mention anything more on the subject. He'd rather speak to the full Raven about it then the separate parts. "Ok, so we have to find Timid, Affection and which others still? Will they all find us or do we have to hunt them down somehow?" Seth had the feeling Timid could be tricky to find but the others he hoped would be along like the yellow one had, just sort of appeared. "How many of you are there?" That was probably something worth knowing too, his natural curiosity eager to find out just what made up Raven.

"Timid, Affection, Bravery, Rudeness, and Sloth. Eventually we'll need to make sure Rage isn't doing anythign unsavory here as well." Wisdom said. "But it's best to avoid Rage until we have our numbers gathered." She answered.
"Some are coming to us. But it's best we try to meet them in the middle. Some we'll need to get. Sloth and Rude most likely." Happiness said with a giggle. "Which means we'll get to hang out for quite some time!" She said, excitement in her tone. She enjoyed the time she got to spend with Seth. It made her...well happy. Not that she could be any other emotion.
"We should find Timid next. She knows this maze better than anyone. Out of ease Raven fashioned it after the one Timid creates in her own mind." Wisdom explained. She wasn't sure if Timid would come to them. She would be uncomfortable and likely fearful outside of the confines of Raven's mind, but also she was in a familiar space. She knew this maze inside and out.

"Sloth and Rude." Seth said out loud, those really didn't seem like they could be part of the girl he knew but then he didn't really know her that well. "Wait what can Rage do in here, this is my head...mind or something. I wonder if Rachel is having to deal with my Happy and stuff. That would be weird."
The thought of a pink version of him running about was quite funny. or a version wearing glasses and being all smart and logical. Part of him hoped not, Rachel might be put off if she was being harassed by a hyper Seth, though maybe the smart one could impress her. Inside the maze he actually felt safe and didn't feel the need to worry about the doors anymore. Was like they didn't effect him in the maze or maybe she had found a way to stop them and all he had to do was get out of here and meet up with the girl again.
"If you can sense some of the others, why can't you sense Rage?" Seth said slowly as the thought popped into his head. The thought of a pissed off Raven just appearing out of nowhere wasn't the nicest of thoughts.

"Rage is powerful, even outside of Raven's mind. While Raven is against doing anything to harm you or invading your mind in a way that would be not to your liking, Rage has no such qualms." Wisdom explained. "We all have some parts of Raven's power but Rage needs to be constantly suppressed with that kind of raw." Wisdom left out the word demonic, knowing that now was not the time to explain those things to Seth. "power she could hurt a lot of people, in this case only you and the other parts of your self. Rage would be able to get out though and cause mayhem."
"Buut I doubt you have the emotion clones like us. Silly." Happy Raven said
"Everyone's mind works differently. On a mental plane like this one, different parts of the mind personify because that's what is important. For you, I think it works differently." Wisdom said.
"Rage learned how to hide herself from us a long time ago." Timid said, appearing behind them, hiding fearfully behind Wisdom. "She doesn't show herself until she is ready to strike." She stuttered out.

Rage was starting to sound like a serious threat, the more the others seemed fearful the more Seth was hoping they met that one last or even not at all, that might be good. "Wait, are you saying that she could take over my body by doing stuff here?" That thought was pretty terrifying and something he really didn't want to consider thankfully another voice joined them. Giving Timid a wave he smiled, another emotion he really didn't think Rachel would have had, she seemed so confident and control hardly timid at all "Hey there, glad you could join us." The part about being so glad it wasn't rage was left out as he figured that might have sounded bad.
"You know theres something thats been puzzling me, not that you ladies...uh Rachel even don't have the legs for it but the outfit isn't what people tend to wear. Why are you all dressed like that, is it something to do with magic? Come to think of it, why was she fighting that Dr Light guy in the first place." Everyone had heard of superheroes except those stuck in a box for years or not given knowledge of them in-case it messed with the fake personality.

"Not exactly. She could reduce us, including you, to nothings and then leave your mind to control Raven's body completely." [/color]Wisdom explained. As she said this, Timid squeaked in fear behind her. "In numbers we'd be able to hold her off, as long as she hasn't gained enough power to form herself into Raven's father." She explained. "Which is unlikely because we've been happy lately!" Happy said jumping up and down excitedly. She giggled happily, looking over at Timid who she knew was not sharing her pleasant attitude. "Everyone wears clothes like these where we are from!" Happy added. "Raven is from another dimension. There, the cape and such is relatively normal there. Here, it's her superhero costume." Wisdom explained. "You're telling him too much. He won't like us anymore." Timid said nervously, tugging on Wisdom's robes.[/blockquote][/size]
