Raven lent against her door, she could here a muffled snarling on the other side. He was still out there, she new he would not leave. She could sense his constant fury, with a single tear drifting down her cheek she turned back to her dark room, her bookshelf's where shattered and books were scattered all over the floor. In the centre of the far end of the dimly lit room her circular bed, decorated with a dark ornate headboard, lay on its side her purple-blue sheets in torn piles on the floor. She used her magic to flip her bed upright and felt her legs give way as she collapsed onto her bed. How could she have let this happen? Raven knew that Robin and Starfire wouldn't be back for a couple of weeks, and she would not last that long. Without the ability to meditate, she simply closed her eyes and tried to forget, let time pass, spend her last hours at peace. But a wretched sniffling echoed from outside the door and she new that if he didn't leave he would be destroyed too, and she would not let that happen. Determined to save the person that had made her life special she levitated to the door. With a pause she doubted whether he would be able to get away in time, but sat least he could be warned. She pushed the button next to the door and it slit open automatically, looking down she saw his green wolf form lying down in front of her, his eyes staring furiously down the corridor.
"Beast Boy" she said calmly, the wolf's ear twitched but otherwise no recognition came from him.
"Please change back so I can talk to you" a snarling growl was his only reply.
"You know you cant stay here for ever" she pinched her fingers to stop her voice trembling, there came no reaction. Suddenly more annoyed than concerned she slammed the door behind her and levitated over him to face him.
"I didn't want to do this but…" abruptly her eyes glowed red and a black bubble surrounded the wolf and lifted him of the ground, he starred around afraid and confused.
"You leave me no choice!" she yelled and suddenly the wolf shifted back into a human form and a large chair appeared under him. He was then swiftly dropped onto it and her dark magic taped him to the chair. Her eyes cleared as her feet landed back onto the ground, she frowned at Beast boy and covered her body with her cloak, her eyes locked on his.
"Listen, you need to evacuate the city!" she knew soon tears would be streaming down her face so she pulled her hood up "they need to be warned, innocent people could die". He refused to look at her; he continued to shift form, straining against the magical tape, but it held. This continued for a few minutes, he refused to give up, snarling, grunting, hissing, barking and squawking he wouldn't stop, she new that. Without a sound she extended her arm and cupped his green head in the palm of her hand, he stopped changing, now in human form, and stared up at her "please, I scared" tears fell from her face "don't make me anymore scared". He looked up at her, sadness burning out of his eyes; she hated to see him this way. So miserable, but still holding on to any hope he had left.
"Terra, think of Terra, she needs to be warned, just leave me" Raven pulled her hand away but Beast boy took her hand in his "No" he said, they stared eye to eye, "I'm not leaving you".
"Yes…you are" with one swift movement her powers produced a portal in the floor, "say goodbye to everyone for me" she said, trying to smile through her ocean of tears.
"No!" Beast boy struggled with newfound rage "don't you see, I don't care about Terra its YOU I care about" he yelled, eyes fierce. She suddenly felt something emanating from him, from herself, she knew she loved him and wished to be with him, but if he stayed, he would die.
"I'm sorry," she whispered than softly kissed him on the forehead and her hands glowed in black circles as her magic picked up the chair, sending Beast boy through the portal. She closed it and collapsed in tears. He was safe, she smiled, but she was not.
