Ello' welcome to my first fic. I wrote this part a while ago so, it's not quite up to par with my current writings.

Disclaimer: I do not own Teen Titans or any of the characters. And never will.


Rebound Nightmares

Part. 1


I will get out.

Never.

You can't keep me here forever.

I can.

I will get out you'll see.

Will not.

I'll never leave you alone.

You will.

I will prove you wrong.

You can't.

You'll put your guard down one day, and you'll see, I will be free.

Impossible.


It had been merely a week, a week so full of agony, it was killing me. It had been a week since my encounter with him. The sly dragon known as Malchior. Just the sound of his name made me grind my teeth. He betrayed me, in such a way that hurt so bad, it was un-real. I couldn't sleep anymore, couldn't think right, all because of him. But ever since I had encased him back within the boundaries of his book, he had been threatening me. He was somewhat of a telepath; he could be the voices in my head, his only form of communication. He would tell me he could get out, that the spell would wear thin, and he would escape. And truth be told, he was right. Lately he had been taunting me in a harassing voice, insulting me, weakening me so that the spell on his book would be weaker as well. He was succeeding.

The voice inside my head never ceased. Always taunting me, hurting me, breaking me. Threatening escape and life. No one knew my pain. No one understands. There was never a shoulder to cry on, no one who could ease my pain. They just didn't understand the torment I would go through, everyday of my miserable life. I was about ready to give in to his voice, let it take over and control me. Nothing seemed to matter anymore, not to me. My walls were wearing thin, allowing the chance of escape easier for him. But then I couldn't let him go…if I did… my friends would be no more. They could be killed, by only one blow from his powerful might. But do I truly consider them friends? If I were to doubt them like this, should I truly trust them? I was lost In my mind, trapped and caged by my own emotions. Malchiors terror could be seen in my eyes, my fear, my hate, my pain. My eyes could decipher any emotion I was displaying. Often, people could tell my mood by my eyes, and lately, my eyes had been dismal and glassy.

There was a steady stream of rain hovering over the city, creating a peculiar effect of reflection. The sky was grey, and everything seemed to be at rest. Thunderstorms had been predicted for tonight, meaning I would have a restless sleep. But sleeping didn't matter, because it was still day. The tower had become oddly quiet as well, a quiet I had grown accustomed to. But I didn't mind silence, in fact, I welcomed it. It gave me a chance to think , dream and wish. Not everybody liked to be alone and unbothered, but I did. I was different. And nobody understood my differences. I slowly drew my thoughts together, clearing my mind for meditation. I had to concentrate, push all my other emotions away. And focus on energy and control. As soon as this step was completed I could begin my chant. "Azarath Metrion Zynthos." The room I was in became a figment of my mind. "Azarath Metrion Zynthos." Surrounded by stars, flashing their brilliance in the black sky. I had entered my mind. "Azarath Metrion Zynthos." I was perched upon a single rock, alone in my mind, not to be disturbed. "Azarath Metrion Zynthos." In the name of Azarath. "Azrarth Metrion Zynthos." By the crystal of Metrion. "Azarath Metrion Zynthos." With the power of Zinthos. "Azarath Metrion Zythos." No one could bother me now. I was in my mind. But something faint was reaching my ears. Something was ringing, playing a tune. An oddly familiar song…a song of urgency. My eyes flashed open to reveal my communicator flashing madly, playing the single song. I quickly opened it only to find it revealing Robin's face. "We've got a situation down at the bank. Professor Chang has found the vault and is using his minions to break into it. I'll give you a link to the trouble that you'll need to follow. Be there fast. Titans Go!" His face disappeared, and soon revealed a map with a lone red mark to indicate where to go. I needed only a second to study it, and then I was off, ready for battle.


Sorry for it's shortness, future chapters will hopefully be longer. Well...hopefully some of you will review
