Prologue:
A scream bursted from her before she could try to hold it back. The earth under her shook with tremendous power that was new to her. She felt it flow within her... she felt a growing urge to just scream and let the power engulf her in some sort of fury. Tears started to run freely down her face as the blonde girl fell to her knees, trying to figure out what had been done to her. She felt the people watching her from the safety of a screen, they where waiting for this... watching her... like she was some sort of guinea pig.
She ran her fingers through her hair, trying to control this new found power... trying contain this new urge. But it overwhelmed her... and she gave another scream as the earth bursted up from awakening... before she passed out on the hot desert ground.
Terra's eyes snapped open as she laid awake on her bed, the alarm red 5:00AM in bright red numbers, and she sighed softly. Rolling onto her back she stared up at the ceiling... she had to get out of here.

The backpack was filled with more then a few things. But as some more where stuffed into the camo-colored bag, more where taken out. As the girl couldn't make up her mind just what all she would need. You would never have guessed she had done this a million times before. Put in the socks- no don't need more so take them back out. Fill it with food... but she could always 'pick some up' if she had to so that went out too.
With a frustered grunt Terra dumped the bag back out onto the floor of her boarding school room. The stupid city had put her in here, since dumbly they hadn't recognized her the prior month and took for an orphan.
Like it matters, She thought bitterly as she looked over the once contents of the backpack. The blonde sat Indian style, trying to figure out just what she should take. Maybe she should just leave it all here. After all it might slow her down. She might just need speed to save her life. Every second counted right now, and she had no one to hide behind if the wrong people found her out... Terra sighed and buried her face into her palms, trying to calm herself down before she went ecstatic. Her eyes peaked open through gaps between her fingers, looking down at her 'supplies' she ran everything she would honestly need in her head.
Another hour later and she was ready. Her light pack was leaning against the bare wall by the door, and the girl laid down on her over-springy bed. Her blue eyes stared up at the ceiling, trying to coax themselves into sleep. Terra would need her rest if she where to make the journey she was setting before herself. But never the less sleep did not come easy, and worries about her destination clouded her mind. It was a place she had been running from for a few years, it was what gave her the urge to find safety in the past... that is until she learned that no one could protect her but herself. Ah, yes. Life had taught her that lesson alright. She remembered being punctured with needles, and being forced to take meds everyday to keep her body from shutting down under stress. The painful days of training that had been forced on her... just to make sure her giving' powers worked. She also remembered most of her friends not living through those ordeals...
Terra remembered it all well.
After being sent to America, she was abducted and taken to a remote area to be tested on. All the other teens there had been orphans, and according to the public... non of them existed. The genetic lab, or Area 51 as Terra had heard it be called, was responsible for testing out new ways to 'create private government weapons'.
She shook her head, she had been located. Terra knew because she recognized that white monster from the other day. The geomancer knew the only way to be freed from them was to stop their organization, not to mention she had to get out of Jump City anyways. What with the Titans being back... she had to leave before anyone other than Beast Boy came looking for her. She heaved a heavy sigh and tried to get some sleep, this time her eye lids closed as her alarm clock ticked away at the minutes till she would make her Saturday night run.
All right Y'all. I am really hopeing for this fic, and think it will come out really well. But that is up to the people who read it x) The first chapter is still under some work, but as soon as I start the second one I will post it. As for the plot- who doesn't like to wonder what they do in Area 51? Jeesh xD There will be some Beast Boy Terra romance, and drama, but it isn't the main base of this fic. But I promiss some twists and turns later on, that non of y'all will see comming.
...Please Read and Review...
