It was a dark and stormy night in Jump City and Titans Tower was just as dark, but amongst

the sleeping Titans, someone wasn't who they appeared. After gaining the Titans trust Terra had

felt no pleasure. This was the only way she could get her parents back, and she would do

anything to save them, even betraying her new found friends. So as she crept downstairs and

exited the tower her heart felt drained by the weight of what she was about to do. She felt no

pleasure in betraying them it was just something she had to do it. The H.I.V.E had used her and

now Slade was doing the same. She was just a tool, nothing more, yet she had truly felt that it

was different with the Titans. They had actually cared about her and not just her powers, they

had even accepted her when she had been teetering on the brink of utter destruction. Whether

she could truly control her powers or not they had been able to look past that, and really trusted

her. Beast Boy especially, Terra found that of all the Titans she most cared for Beast Boy he

was the one that made this the most painful thing she would ever do. These thoughts drifted

through her head as she made her way to Slade's headquarters a stream of bitter tears drifting

behind her.

Raven awoke with a start something was wrong she could sense it. Letting her mind drift over

the tower she mentally prodded each of her sleeping friends consciousnesses. Yet one was

Missing, Terra. *Where is she* Raven thought to herself as she searched for Terra's psychic

trail. When Raven found it she knew immediately that they had been betrayed. Her Psychic

scent stunk of apprehension and fear. The stink of a betrayer. *How could I have missed this*

Raven thought inwardly, reminiscing on the past events with Terra. The apprehension and fear

had always been there but Raven had discounted it, as Terra's fear of her own powers. Now

she felt sick and on the verge of erupting into uncontrollable anger. She stroked the Jewel in the

center of her forehead and chanted quietly to herself as she rushed to wake her team mates. She

had to hurry the trail was already growing fainter. *Robin, Starfire, Beast Boy, Cyborg wake up

we have an emergency!* she mentally shouted to each. Knowing this would let them know how

dire the situation was as she never invaded their minds without reason. She hurried to the main

living area where she waited as each of her team mates rushed into the room.

"What's going on Raven?" Robin asked as he skidded to a stop.

"Hey, Where's Terra?" Beast Boy asked as he rubbed his eyes.

"Good question", Raven said coolly. "She has betrayed us."

"No way! Terra would never do that to me... I mean us!" Beast Boy shouted angrily, "you've

never trusted her! How do you know that's what she did?" Beast Boy dropped to the floor and

pounded his fist down in anger. Robin reached down to pat his friend on the shoulder but Beast

Boy pulled away.

"Beast Boy she knows, Raven knows, I know its hard for you to accept, I mean its hard for us

all, but we have to trust Raven." Robin said as he tried in vain to ease Beast Boy's anger.

"Robin, there is no time for this the trail is already fading we must find her." Raven said as she

turned her back on her team mates. "We have to go."

Robin turned to the rest of the Titans, Starfire was embracing a now sobbing Beast Boy.

"She's right we have to go come on Titans." Robin said quietly, as he turned to go after Raven.

Starfire and Cyborg lifted Beast Boy to his feet. Beast Boy wiped his tears and bit down on his

lip as he followed after his friends.
