07. COLD
Terra decided the cold had become comforting to her.
Slade's lair, despite the machines, was freezing.
The cold helped numb her: mind, body, and soul. It helped her forget what she'd done.
Hanging onto the cliff by fingertips, Beast Boy said, "Terra, you can't."
She only replied, "Watch me."
Ironically, she had to watch him be submerged by the darkness, taken away from her. At the time she felt no pain, but looking back... He may have been in physical pain but her pain was far worse. "I'm sorry," she whispered softly into the night.
She had become comfortably numb.
