Necronom hezbarek mortyx! MALCHIOR [NARRATING.]
: And so it came to pass that I, Malchior of Nol, did lay siege to the dread dragon, Rorek.
[GROWLS.]
[GRUNTS.]
But it did seem the power of Rorek was greater than my magics could defeat.
And as the foul beast struck [ALARM BLARING.]

[MUSIC BOX PLAYING CHEERY TUNE.]
Ah, cool.
Look at that bunny.
[ALL CHUCKLING.]
[ALL SCREAMING.]
[GASPING.]
[SCREAMING.]
Cardiac, you're under arrest! [BEATING.]
Titans, go! Starfire, launch! [STARFIRE YELLING.]
[GRUNTING.]
T.
rex takedown! [GRUNTS.]
[GRUNTING.]
This has gone on long enough.
Azarath, Metrion, Zinthos! [GRUNTS.]
[BEATING.]
Dude.
Way to take him apart.
[FLATLY.]
Can we go now? [TIRES SQUEALING.]
MALCHIOR [NARRATING.]
: But it did seem the power of Rorek was greater than my magics could defeat.
And as the foul beast struck [KNOCKING ON DOOR.]
[CLICK, THEN TAPE SQUEALING.]
[KNOCKING ON DOOR.]
Hey.
When we got home, you kind of ran to your room and locked the door.
Anything you wanna talk about? [FLATLY.]
No.
MALCHIOR [NARRATING.]
: greater than my magics could defeat.
And as the foul beast struck, I [KNOCKING ON DOOR.]
[FILM PROJECTOR WHIRRING, FILM SQUEALING.]
[KNOCKING ON DOOR.]
I have journeyed to the mall of shopping and discovered the joy of earthly hair ornaments.
Do you wish to? No.
[SIGHS.]
MALCHIOR [NARRATING.]
: And as the foul beast struck, I summoned the forces of my enchanted book.
Aldruon enlenthra nalthos sola narisnor! And with a curse more ancient than foul Rorek himself, I [KNOCKING ON DOOR.]
CYBORG: Yo, Raven! BEAST BOY: Dude, open up! [STOMPING.]
[BOTH SCREAM.]
[FLATLY.]
What? We're here tonight with an exclusive offer.
A once-in-a-lifetime chance to get in on America's fastest-growing sports sensation The hot new game we just made up BOTH: Stankball! [BALL PASSING GAS.]
[SNIFFS.]
Woo! Wanna be referee? [FLATLY.]
Go away.
But please? Everybody loves a good game of Stankball.
And we need a referee to play the lightning round.
No.
[BOTH GASP.]
Oh, Raven, come on! Why can't you just have fun like normal people? Why are you always locked in your dark room reading your nasty old books? Why do you have to be so creepy? CYBORG: Forget it, B.
Leave her alone.
I'm not creepy.
I'm just different.
And I wish there were someone around here who understood that.
Someone I could talk to.
Someone more like me.
MALCHIOR: There is.
[GASPS.]
MALCHIOR: Ow.
[GASPS.]
Uh.
Did you just? MALCHIOR: Speak? Uh-huh.
I did.
And then you dropped me on my spine.
Oh.
Sorry.
Books aren't supposed to talk.
True, fair maiden, but I am no book.
I am a man.
Malchior of Nol at your service.
The wizard who faced the dread dragon, Rorek? The wizard who defeated Rorek and who is trapped within these pages by the dragon's final curse.
Trapped? But that battle was almost One thousand years ago.
And I've been waiting for someone to find me ever since.
Raven I've been waiting for you.
[GRUNTS.]
The curse is strong.
I'm sorry.
I don't think my power can break it.
I know.
But perhaps we could just talk? MALCHIOR: Stankball? You're joking.
RAVEN: They wanted me to referee.
Smashing.
You must be the luckiest girl in the world.
And this Beast Boy sounds like an absolute genius.
[CHUCKLES.]
That's funny.
You're funny.
And you're the best thing that's happened to me in a thousand years.
Then you don't think I'm creepy? Certainly not.
You are dark.
And darkness is often misunderstood.
But I feel like I understand you.
I feel that way too.
[YAWNS.]
It's late.
You should sleep.
Do you promise you'll still be here when I wake up? I promise.
Mm.
Mm.
[ROOSTER CROWING.]
[CLUCKING.]
Hey, Raven.
Um, it's, like, almost noon, and you haven't come out of your room.
So just in case you're mad, I'm gonna go ahead and say, sorry I called you creepy last night.
Raven? MALCHIOR: Perhaps if we're quiet, he'll just go away.
[RAVEN CHUCKLES.]
Um, Raven.
Is everything? Hi.
Um you were laughing.
And I thought I heard Is there someone in there? [FLATLY.]
Just me and a really good book.
Oh.
Well, I just wanted to make sure you were okay.
Better than okay.
Way better.
Sorry, Malchior.
He won't bother us again.
Malchior? Who's Malchior? I've never even heard of this spell.
Where did you learn it? It's in the Galyan Scrolls.
You've read the Galyan Scrolls? And the Mornal Archives and the Stones of Sur.
I've been trapped in a book.
Not much to do but read.
I think it's almost ready.
Good.
There's just one more ingredient.
A lock of hair from a beautiful girl.
Beautiful? I truly appreciate all that you're doing for me, Raven.
I might not know how to break the curse, but at least I can get you out of that book.
[BLOWS.]
Thank you.
You're welcome.
[GASPS.]
Silly me.
Of course.
I remain bound to the book.
Because the curse is still in effect.
Indeed.
If I am ever to be truly free, well, it would require magics of much greater power.
Then teach me the spells.
I wanna help you.
I wanna learn.
To break this curse, I must teach you more than just a few simple spells.
I must teach you everything I know.
The Book of Nord.
The Endrial Verses.
The Romanomicon.
The Bersian Chronicle.
More than 6000 pages of spells, charms and incantations.
That's a lot of reading.
Those are just the basics.
Now, for more powerful magics, we turn to the works of Oreadin the Strange.
[CHUCKLES.]
And let the energy flow through your entire body.
Feel your thoughts giving it power and form.
Good, Raven.
You've [GASPS.]
Almost got it.
You know there is a better way.
[CLICKING, BEEPING.]
[CLICKING & BEEPING STOPS.]
[SIGHS.]
[RAVEN HUMMING.]
Um hey, Raven.
Haven't seen you around much lately.
Yeah.
'Cause she hasn't left her room for a week [GRUNTS.]
I, uh, like your new look.
Thanks.
So when do we get to meet this friend of yours? Soon.
I am unable to wait.
Beast Boy has told us much about the Malchior, and how he remains trapped within a book, but Now, how would Beast Boy know something like that? [CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY.]
I may have kind of been, uh, a fly on the wall in your room.
Funny.
You look more like a rat to me.
[MAGIC CHIMING.]
You morphed me.
How did you do that? [ALARM BLARING.]
Titans, move! [RAVEN HUMMING.]
Hey! We gotta go.
[CRICKETS CHIRPING.]
[HEART BEATING LOUDLY IN DISTANCE.]
[SCREAMS.]
[GASPS.]
Oh, man.
Hand-to-hand.
We don't wanna hurt her.
Don't worry.
We're gonna get you [SCREAMS.]
[GRUNTS.]
[GROANS.]
This time, when I break you, stay broken.
Necronom, hezbarek, mortyx! Raven, careful.
The girl.
[YELLING.]
[WHIMPERING.]
Raven, stop.
I can't! [SCREAMS.]
Hang on.
[GRUNTS.]
[GRUNTING.]
[WHIMPERING.]
[GIGGLES.]
Ugh.
What is wrong with you? It's dark magic.
You've been teaching me dark magic.
Is it dark, or is it simply misunderstood? Like you.
True.
The spells I've taught you are very powerful.
There are those who fear power, so they call it dark.
But for people like us, such distinctions do not exist.
Without these spells, we can never truly be together.
Enchanted pages or no, I'm still trapped within this book and you're still alone.
Is that what you want, Raven? To be alone? No.
My sweet Raven it's time.
The incantation just as I taught you.
Hezbarek etmorane gost wenthen verbis nex in obrium bispendrule paran sic cortus rex! [GASPS.]
[SCREAMING.]
[GROWLS.]
Malchior.
[GRUNTING.]
You changed it.
Malchior wasn't the wizard.
He was a No! [GRUNTS.]
[GRUNTS.]
[GRUNTS.]
Raven.
[CRASHING.]
He lied to me.
He lied.
And I gave him what he wanted.
Come on! Raven, are you? Please.
Just get out of my room.
[ROARS.]
[GRUNTS.]
[GRUNTS.]
[YELLING.]
[GRUNTING.]
[GRUNTING.]
[SCREAMS.]
Azarath, Metrion, Zinthos! [GRUNTS.]
[GRUNTS.]
[GRUNTING.]
Huh? [GRUNTING.]
Oh, dear.
You're not going to cry now, are you? I know it hurts.
But you'll just have to accept the truth.
It's over.
I got what I wanted, and I don't need you anymore.
It's not over.
Not yet.
[LAUGHS MANIACALLY.]
Sweet Raven.
You can't possibly hope to defeat me.
I taught you everything you know.
You taught me spells.
But I just learned a curse.
No! Aldruon enlenthra nalthos sola narisnor! [SCREAMING.]
[LOCK CLICKS.]
[KNOCKING ON DOOR.]
BEAST BOY: Raven? It's me.
Look, I'm sorry.
For what? You're not the one who No.
I'm sorry that he broke your heart.
I know it was all a lie but he was the only person who ever made me feel like I wasn't creepy.
And don't try to tell me I'm not.
Okay.
Fine.
You're way creepy.
But that doesn't mean you have to stay locked in your room.
You think you're alone, Raven but you're not.
Uh Uh [GRUNTS.]
Woo-hoo! Stankball! [GROANS.]
CYBORG: Now, hold on, Raven.
Don't Oof! [RAVEN CHUCKLES.]
