The Beast Returns
(This is my first fanfic ever its not perfect so don't pick at it this will be switching points of view between raven and beast boy enjoy)
Ravens P.O.V
I wake up in the middle of the night as I have done the past three nights for the same reason I am worried about beast boy. My heart is filled with regret for leaving him behind the titans and I have worked non stop for the past three days trying to find him. As I begin to drift back to sleep the loud sound of the tower alarm wakes me up, I spring up from my bead and put on my cloak. As I step out of my room I am nearly trampled by cyborg as he runs past my room,"Hey what's the hurry?" He turns around his gaze meeting mine, "We found beast boy raven," I nearly jump out of my skin," Good where is he, we have to go get him." Cyborg looks down there is a hint of sadness in his voice,"He's gone primal again raven." I nearly faint when I hear his words.
Flashback
Ravens P.O.V
"Beast boy how much longer do we have to sit here," I say bored out of my mind." We stay here until robin tells us we can leave he wants us to scout this place in case slade strikes." I sit down going back to my book, I flip through a few pages before slamming it shut, "Beast boy I will tell you once stop singing!" I say annoyed." Why don't ya live a little raven." I stand up wanting to slap him across the face. "How I got stuck on this scouting mission with you ill never know." I say enraged. I raise my hand getting ready to slap him then a shot rings out, I fall to the ground holding my arm the shot grazed my skin beast boy helps me to my feet, "Raven lets move we have to get out of here!" I look up and a small object falls from the sky beast boy pushes me out of the way just in time before it explodes. As I regain my senses the first thing my eyes see is beast boy trapped under a pile of rubble I run over to him attempting to lift the rubble off him, suddenly his hand comes up grabbing mine he looks at me weakly, "Raven listen to me I may not get another chance to say this I.. I lov," another explosion rocks the area the shock wave knocking me back. Beast boy looks up at me again with sadness in his eyes," Raven leave me get out of here now!" I turn away with sadness in my heart I turn back to him one last time," I will come back for you beast boy I promise."
This next part is from beast boys P.O.V but it takes place an hour before what happens in the first scene.
I wake up feeling like a freight train hit me it takes me a few seconds to gather my senses but I realize I'm being carried my slade's guard's. They carry me into a dark room its only then I realize my hands are restrained as are my legs as I look around I notice a dark figure moving towards me, "Hello beast boy," it only takes me a second to recognize the voice as slades. I look up at him with disgust, "What do you want slade." He looks down at me with a look of evil in his eye, "Simple I'm going to turn you into the ultimate weapon," I watched as he produced a small syringe," In this syringe is the same chemical that transforms you into your primal state," My eyes go wide I know what he is planning to do. "Even if you put me in that form slade you wont be able to control me ill rip you to peaces the first chance I get." He laughs in my face as if he was expecting my answer," That's why I have taken the time to make a few adjustments the chemical will not only transform you it will force you to comply with any orders I give you." I hang my head as he jams the needle into my arm I feel myself losing control over my body as I begin to transform. Its like I'm looking through the eyes of someone else and I have no control I turn to slade who looks at me with a smirk, "It seems to have worked perfectly its time I give you your first order." I feel helpless knowing he has full control of me I already know what he will order me to, he looks at me with evil in his eyes," Destroy the teen titans."
Ravens P.O.V
I am overcome with worry a million questions racing through my mind as we pile into the T-car the other titans are trying their best to south my guilt but its not helping any. Cyborg turns back to me as we drive off," Here raven maybe a little music will help you feel better." I watch as he turns on the radio and the song New York Minuet by the eagles is playing.
In these days when darkness falls early and people rush home to the ones they love you'd better take a fools advice and take care of your own cause one day they're here next day they're gone
Cyborg immediately changes the channel," Sorry raven lets try something else." He presses a button and The Girl From Yesterday comes on
The lights on in the window she's waiting by the phone talking to a memory that's never coming home she dreams of his returning and the things that he might say but she'll always be the girl from yesterday ya she'll always be the girl from yesterday.
Robin immediately turns the radio," Ok that's enough its not helping." Starfire looks at me attempting to comfort me," Raven what has happened to beast boy is not your fault."
I look over at her almost to overcome by guilt to speak," Yes it is star I left him behind I should have stayed and helped him." Starfire puts her hand on my shoulder," If you would have stayed we would have two missing titans instead of one." I give her a small smile as I pull my cloak over my head thinking how could I have let this happen.
Suddenly the T-car grinds to a stop, I step out feeling the rain hit against my hood I look out at beast boy who circles me getting ready to attack I turn back to my friends," Guys stay back I'm going to try to talk him out of it." robin steps out of the car," No raven we fight as a team." I look at him with a sorry look," I'm sorry this is something I have to do on my own." With that I raise my hand bringing up a force field that divides cyborg, robin, and starfire from beast boy and I. I turn to beast boy," Beast boy I know your in their somewhere please don't do this. My words don't have the slightest effect he runs towards me and slams me to the ground with one swipe of his claw.
Beast Boy's P.O.V
I am helpless to stop myself as I knock raven to the ground. I want to kill myself for what I just did. I am then forced to smash her into the ground with the full force of both fists. I pound her repeatedly with full force trying to regain control of my body. Finally it stops raven is lying on the ground in front of me beaten to a pulp. Slade steps out of the shadows clapping his hands," Very good now finish her then destroy the rest of the titans." On command I raise my fists above my head just as I get ready to strike I look down at raven she is staring at me with her beautiful eyes," Beast boy I know your in their I don't know if you can hear me but if you can this is not who you are your not some beast you're a kind gentle soul with a heart of gold and though I don't show it very much I have feelings for you." My resistance is stronger then ever I wont hurt raven my resolve is so great I am able to regain full control of my body and revert to my normal form. I turn to slade only to see that he is gone back into the shadows I turn my attention back to raven," Raven I'm so sorry I hurt you." She gently places her hand on top of mine," It wasn't your fault beast boy you weren't yourself it's me that should be sorry if I hadn't left you behind none of this would have happened." I grasp her hand but I feel strange like all my energy has been drained from my body then everything went black.
Ravens P.O.V a few hours later back at titan tower
I sit up analyzing my surroundings I realize I'm in the infirmary at the tower starfie is sitting in a chair but she springs up when she sees that I'm awake," Raven dear friend I am most glad to see that you are well." I look at her smiling slightly," Thanks star um where is beast boy is he alright." She smiles at me," He awoke a few minuets before you did friend." I stand and pull my hood over my head and head out to find beast boy I'm pretty sure I know where he will be. I walk down the halls until I reach the exit to the tower and sure enough their he is sitting by the shore. I walk up to him and sit down he looks at me in surprise," Raven how'd you know I would be here?" I give him a slight smile," Because this is where you came the first time you went into the primal state." He give me a smile," Hey rae." I smile he knows I like it when he calls me rae," Yes beast boy." He smiles at me," You know that song I was singing before we got attacked back on that scouting mission." I give him a slight nod and he smiles at me," I was practicing it because I wanted to sing it to you." I smile at him," Speaking of which their was something you wanted to say to me." He blushes a bit," Oh ya that um how can I put this rae." I give him a smile trying to put him at ease; I can tell he is very nervous. He puts his hand on top if mine and looks into my eyes," I …I love you rae." I smile at him and pull him into a kiss, as his lips are pressed against mine time seems to stop all around us as if nothing in the world matters. I pull away and smile at him,"And I love you too beast boy.' He smiles at me," Now for that song I was telling you about." I give him a smile and he begins to sing.
There's some things we don't talk about
Rather do without
And just hold the smile
Falling in and out of love
Ashamed and proud of
Together all the while
You can never say never
Why we don't know when
Time and time again
Younger now than we were before
Don't let me go
Don't let me go
Don't let me go
Picture you're the queen of everything
As far as the eye can see
Under your command
I will be your guardian
When all is crumbling
Steady your hand
You can never say never
Why we don't know when
Time time and time again
Younger now then we were before
Don't let me go
Don't let me go
Don't let me go
We're pulling apart and coming together again and again
We're growing apart but we pull it together pull it together together again
Don't let me go
Don't let me go
Don't let me go
I smile at him,"Beast boy that was beautiful." He smiles,"Thanks rae." He leans in getting ready to kiss me but then out of no where we hear a loud crash we turn around only to see a large crator right behind us.
