Chapter 1
"We want you back Terra." In a tiny room in a small yet overcrowded high school, a small green-skinned boy in a purple and black suit could be seen following a beautiful blonde girl wearing a white shirt and tie.
"Good to know." The story of these two could never be fully explained with words – but to sum it up – the second they met – it was love at first sight, however the girl's insecurities led her to betray the boy and his team – leaving him heartbroken. In a final act of selflessness, the girl sacrificed herself to save the city – or so it appeared. Months later the boy found the girl at this small high school, and at first she denied her name, but eventually it was forced out of her. He had thought once she said, "Yes I'm Terra," she would come back and everything would be perfect again. But she didn't come back.
"Jesus Terra, do you have to be so cold?"
"Do you have to be so annoying?"
"Terra please – we miss you."
"Uh-huh, and I got friends to talk to." She walked off, joining remarkably similar people in conversation, in her remarkably boring life. Turning her head, she merely smiled as she saw him walk off – hanging his head in disappointment.
Beast Boy walked through the Titan Tower's door (Oh ya, did I mention she, he, and the team are all superheroes, oops – well that probably explains the whole "sacrifice to save city" thing). His teammates were all in front of him – staring at the TV set. Unbeknown to them, their smiles destroyed him, "Why can't I get over her? Why can't I be like them?" He sourly thought to himself. The routine that went on had happened nearly every day for the past year – they paid no attention to him, instead stuck to their video game, as he walked up the stairs, head still hanging.
Once he heard the door slam, Cyborg, a half robotic teammate, spoke up, "Are you guys sure he'll get over her."
Raven, another teammate who was given telekinetic powers through the god Azarath, replied, "He just needs some space Cyborg."
The others, Starfire, a red-headed alien, and Robin, a small but powerful fighter, stayed quite.
Terra, now at her home inside a cave, now winced as she realized how harsh she had been. Her intentions were truly good – she was trying to save the team – but sometimes – especially when Beast Boy came – she just wanted to go back, if they were willing to pretend she belonged couldn't she? "No." She told herself confidently.
