Memories – Chapter 1
"The girl you want me to be is just a memory. I'm just a girl who has a geometry test next period and hasn't studied," she said, then a group of kids walked by, and she was gone.
Four years have passed since then. Every night I wake up in a cold sweat in remembrance of that day. I still can't believe she said that. She was Terra. She didn't want to admit it, but she was. I just needed some way to show her. No. There was nothing to be done. She was gone and I knew it. Some crazy things had happened while the Titans were away. Maybe that was one of them. Cyborg said that an earthquake might have hit and destroyed her statue of a body.
I hear that noise the doors make when they open in the tower.
"It's that thing that hit the city on… uh… that day…."
"I'll be there in a while."
"You sure you're okay? You haven't been the same since, well, you know."
"Just say it! You don't have to act like I don't remember or that I want to forget it all! I just want to have a normal life and you treat me like I've gone insane! I know I'm green, I know I'm different than I used to be, and I know that I'm perfectly sane! If anyone's got problem's it's the rest of you for thinking there's something wrong with me! Now get out!"
He ran out with almost unnatural speed and strength. It was the first time I'd gotten angry, truly angry, at anyone for a long time. It probably scared him so badly that it fueled him to run so fast. I was going to prove to her that she was Terra.
I looked up her face on the internet, hoping to find an address and maybe even a name. All I found was an address. 42 Pilot Ave. I would go there tonight.
Terra. The name rang out like a giant, crystal bell in my mind. Every night I woke up in a cold sweat, thinking about what that green kid had said. Maybe he was right. Maybe I was a Titan. No. That was impossible. I remember high school. There was no way I would've forgotten being a super hero, but remembered something so boring as high school. There was a ring on the doorbell. I quickly threw on some more presentable clothes over my night gown and answered it.
"No… It can't be you. I'm not some girl you knew named Terra."
"Just give me one more chance. If I'm wrong, I'll never bother you again," said the green boy I hadn't seen in four years. Then an image suddenly flashed in my head. It was me. I was wearing a shirt with a T in a circle on it, and shorts. My eyes were yellow, and a rock was hurtling toward someone.
"Okay, you've got one last chance."
A/N: Well, that's it for now. I'm not sure if this will be a long one or maybe a two- or three-chapter deal. Please review. I like getting feedback, whatever it is. Flame me for all I care, just show that you took the time to read it.
