Beast boy put his hand beneath the pillow and grabbed the picture when he pulled into view it was a picture of Raven smiling. He was lucky that he got the picture it was so worth being beat up for and thrown out a window and you wonder who did that. Beast boy smiled and put the picture next to his bed facing him. Beast boy started crying and fell asleep with a smile on his face and with tears on his face.

Next Day

Beast boy woke up to sound of birds singing he looked over to see what time it was but there was no clock he groaned and walked up to the window he looked and saw the sun rising. It was beautiful just how the sun rise was like at the Tower he smiled and remembered how Raven would always watch the sunrise he imagined her next to him but he was interrupted by a voice behind him. When he looked it was Karai "Gāfīrudo it is time" Beast boy nodded and followed Karia they went behing the school and walked up stone stairs when they reached the top it was flat and there was a big house and everyone that went to the school was there with their masks on and was sitting behind three people that were bowing toward Sensei Wong Beast boy walked over and did what the other three did. As he did this Sensei Wong picked up one of the three people that were sitting next to him "It is your time choose wisely and remember you won't be judged" The boy nodded and walked into the building after a minute he came out wearing the bat mask "Why have you chosen this" Asked Sensei Wong the boy then said "I am blind and I need to find my way" Said the figure. "Shit shit shit shit" Beast boy said in his head "What am I going to do now I can't do the same thing because everyone may think I copied him" Beast boy wasn't paying attention after he didn't know that it was his turn next and when it was he didn't know what to do. "It is your turn Gāfīrudo choose wisely my son" Beast boy was taken aback by what he said he had never had someone call him their son.

Beast boy then found himself walking into the house but when he did it was dark and the only light was a candle in front of the masks on the wall he looked at all of them but he didn't know what to do he started crying and thought that everyone would think that he was weak and a child but something caught his eye he turned to the right and saw something glitter. He walked toward it and when he came to it his eyes widened it was a mask but it was black and it kind of looked like Slades mask but It was completely black and the top was cut off so you could still see his spikey hair. Beast boy put the mask to his face and the mask pretty much grabbed his face and when it did this Beast boy started screaming but his screams couldn't be heard he fell over and watched as his whole body was engulfed in black when it was all over he looked at himself.

He had black amor on that looked like the Dark nights uniform and the mask was sealed on his face he tried to take it off but it wouldn't come off he was scared it was scary he suddenly found a mirror where the mask was he grabbed it and looked at himself he had black hair now and his eyes were black now as well he couldn't see through his left eye because it was covered and so he could only look through his right eye "Man I look like Slade and that isn't even funny but you have to admit it does show off my muscles more" Beast boy laughed he headed toward the door.

when he came out everyone gasped and froze in place he heard people talking about the shadow and he thought that mask was a bad one so he ignored it and went toward his new master his new leader but he was quickly stopped when he was in front of his Sensei "Gāfīrudo why have you chosen this mask" Beast boy froze he didn't know what to say but somehow he was able to find something to say "Sensei I found it in the dark in the shadows and I'm in the shadows I'm in the dark and I need to find my way out to the light" Sensei nodded his head "Well done my son well done"

Beast boy sat down in the crowd of people that were now his brothers and sisters. After there was a party for the new brothers and sisters, beast boy was getting annoyed because people kept calling him Shadow or by his real name and after a while when someone called him by his real name he acted as if he was going to kill them and they stopped calling him by his real name but they still called him shadow.

"Kage Kage" Beast boy turned around and saw a group of girls calling him he wondered why all the girls won't leave him alone he was about to walk away until he saw Karai with the group of girls he walked over and all the girls kept calling him shadow "Kage Kage can we train together" "Kage you don't want to train with her train with me" He then was being swarmed by the girls and he was quickly pulled away when he was far away from the girls he looked to see who grabbed him. It was Karai "Gāfīrudo are you ok" "Yes Karai I'm fine are you ok you look like you're ready to kill"

(Right her is when I start calling BB SHADOW SO DON'T FREAK OUT BB IS NO MORE ITS NOW SHADOW BB=SHADOW)

Karai then realized that she wasn't wearing her mask, she put her mask on but Shadow stopped her and pulled off her mask "Don't hide behind your mask Karai" Karai just stared into Shadows eye she didn't like how it was black now she missed his green eyes and she thought he looked like a pirate with only one eye to see but she was happy that she could see all of masculine body now. "Karai I need your help I can't remove my mask and I scared that something is wrong" Karai just put her hand on his cheek and kept it there. "Gāfīrudo there's nothing wrong with the mask it's how it works come with me I will tell you more about it cause I can tell your confused by it" Shadow nodded and followed Karai into her room she pulled out a big book and pulled to a page showing a man in black.

"Your mask is ancient Gāfīrudo it has powers that you can ever imagine, it can heal you it can help you it will protect you until you reach your full potential" Shadow looked at Karai "What do you mean it has powers like it has a mind of its own" Karai nodded "It is a part of you now people say it only shows is when it is needed most and when you die or pass away or if you don't need any more it will vanish and wait until someone needs it" Shadow couldn't believe it "It came to me because I needed it" Karai just nodded "But" Shadow looked over to Karai "But?" "But it will be against you as well" "What do you mean it will be against me" Karai looked at Shadow "It is dangerous it can kill you if you use it for wrong doing, but we won't have to worry about that because Sensei says that he sees a good man in you" Shadow looked at Karai "Thank you Karai you are a good friend" Shadow got up and went to look for his Sensei.

Once Shadow found Sensei Wong he was in deep meditation "Sensei I am sorry for bothering you but I need to ask you something" Shadows Sensei opened his eyes and looked at Shadow "Of course my son what Is it" "Well I have to ask you something about my mask" "What do you need to know" "Karai told me that It can be dangerous" "Yes it can so you need to learn to control your anger because the masks power is to strong you can hurt someone even if you didn't mean to" "Well how do I control it" "Well you are going to have to meditate like me so you can channel the power and the energy" Sensei Wong stood up and walked over to him. "You start meditating now" Sensei Wong sat shadow down and showed him how to meditate and in no time shadow was meditating "Gāfīrudo whenever you have the spare time use it to meditate. Do you understand my son?" "Yes Sensei I understand" Sensei Wong stood up and walked out of the room leaving Shadow to meditate.
