Chapter 7
Caught in a Spider's Web
A smiled escaped the girl's face. She was sitting on a pile of rubble, singing an old tune her mother sang her when she was a little girl. She was wearing black leather leggings, a low-cut red top, with black punk boots and a long blood red cape. A raindrop fell, and rolled down her cheek. She laughed as it cooled her down. "Where would you like me to start with?" asked Beast Boy. He was holding a large grey boulder. "Start over there.. I must find my gun!" she demanded. She grinned, when she saw the boy struggle. "Put your back into it." she stated. She flicked her hair out of her eyes. The faded scar across her forehead was now more visible. Valery scratched her arms. They were turning a light shade of white. Paler than usual. Bits of skin fell of her scaly arms. She moaned when she saw dots of blood on her arm. "Faster!" she screamed with terrified eyes. Beast Boy turned into a T-rex and began to use his tail to smash stones and rocks.
"So, how did your Aunt die?" asked a curious Starfire. "Well.. My mother was trying to save her clock and the miners. They were stuck underneath some rubble. But she her cape got caught in the machine, that crushed the rubble. She lay unconscious, and my Aunt tried to save her. But the miners got out.. Not them. They both died.. The only thing that survived was my mother's clock." replied Delyla, as she held up the clock. It ticked softly, as the car wheeled around corners, and pass cars. One of the Ravens from outside, probably Knowledge, tapped on the car's window. (Raven was sitting the car, while her other-selves were flying outside.) "So where did you and your sister live?" she asked, as Delyla rolled down her window. "Well we were only ten, so we were forced to live in Home for Orphans." she replied sadly. She remembered the sad times in that horrible place. Children bullied them, and the careers didn't even do anything. "Are you two twins?" asked a curious Cyborg. "Yes, we're twins but we have different fathers." she replied. "Is that even possible?" asked Robin. Starfire and Delyla nodded her head. "Cyborg could you please drive faster." demanded Raven, while staring at Cyborg in the rear-view mirror. He nodded. "Rae loves the grass stain." whispered Cyborg. "What?" asked Raven, even though she knew what he said. "Nothing.." he gulped. Robin, Delyla and Starfire laughed as a few Ravens outside nodded their heads. Rain splattered the windscreen, this will defiantly not be a good day.
Valery hid underneath a truck that had been turn over. The rain rolled down her legs, but it never hut her head. "Beast Boy are you nearly done?" asked Valery. She pulled her cape around her body. "Nearly." he replied. He was back in his normal form, and the rubble looked like a small opening to a cave. "Not long til we're reunited my love." she said, while snuggling into her cape. "I hope you're having fun." said a voice. Valery rolled her eyes. "Go away Slade!" she commanded. "But I want to have fun too." he replied. He stood beside of Valery. "Yes but you'll ruin my plan, so fuck off!" she shouted. "I don't think so B.W." he whispered. He grabbed hold of her elbow. "You're so cruel." said Valery calmly. Slade grinned. A small spider crawled onto his shoulder. He flicked it off, with his finger. "But every spider must wither away." he stated, while disappearing into the air. Valery rolled her eyes, and Beast Boy walked over. "I've done it." Beast Boy said. Valery stood up from the ground. She began to laugh, as she entered the cave. "Keep guard." she instructed. He nodded his head, while continued her walk down the cave.
Raven flew down onto the quarry, Beast Boy glared and turned into the Beast. His green fur swished in the air. "Beast Boy." cried Raven. She stood in front of the one she was in love with. He roared and charged towards her. She did a summersault in the air. "Please stop! I don't want to hurt you!" she shouted. Robin, Starfire, Delyla and Cyborg stood behind Raven. "Friend Beast Boy! We are your friends, not your enemy!" shouted Starfire desperately. The other Ravens floated down and formed a circle around the beast and the beauty. Azarath Metrion Zinthos, they all chanted. "Garfield please." pleaded Raven, as the beast lodged forward. A white ball of light erupted from the Ravens. The ball of light bounced of the boy, where his heart was. The light blinded everyone.
"Rae?" asked Beast Boy sweetly. His clothes were torn, and was just covering his underwear no more. Raven blushed. "Thanks for believing in me." replied Beast Boy. He kissed her on the lips. Everyone awed. The green boy stared up, and almost fell over when he saw the other Ravens. "What happened to you?" he asked. Knowledge laughed, and Brave giggled. "Someone had a emotion overload." snickered Love. Raven glared at them all. "Where's Valery?" asked Robin sternly. "She's in the cave." said Beast Boy angrily. He took hold of Raven's hand, he smiled. Raven blushed. "Not anymore." laughed Valery. She was holding a black capsule. It had a bluish green liquid inside of it. "Valery, why are you doing this?" asked Delyla desperately. "I knew you had evil in you.. But not this much!" shouted Delyla. She took a step forward in front of her sister. "You fool! I am not your sister!" she spat. She pressed a button on her capsule. She changed into Delyla's dead Aunt. "Auntie Esme?" asked a very shocked Delyla. "Yes, my dear. It is me." she said coldly. "But, what.. How?" shouted Delyla. "I survived the cave-in. And the only reason I went in there, was to receive this." replied Aunt Esme, while holding up her prized-possession. "But you let mum died.. And where's my sister?" asked Delyla, who was confused as a headless chicken. "You ask too many questions, my child." she said coolly. Delyla bit her lip. Her Aunt has been alive all this time. Yet, where was her real sister. "I'm sorry, but you'll won't be seeing your sister ever again." commented Aunt Esme. "What!" screamed Delyla. Cyborg placed a reassuring hand on her shoulder. "I killed her." she replied. "I'm not so sure about that!" shouted a voice. Everyone turned.
The real Valery stood in front of everyone. She was holding a small red gun. Her was a mess, it was splattered over her face. Like the drops of her own blood did. She limped beside her sister. They hugged and tears fell down her face. "I'm guessing your plan never worked." said Brave. Esme glared. "She left me in the desert. Good thing, I survived the knife wound." stated Valery. Raven smiled softly at her. Thank you, she mouthed. Valery nodded her head. Esme chuckled, and pressed her capsule and sprayed it on the ground. Four large tarantulas snapped their pincers towards the superheroes. "Teen Titans Go!" shouted Robin. Everyone got into their fighting modes. The two sisters however went for their Aunt.
"You're not getting away with this!" shouted Delyla. She turned a dial on her clock, and everything went slow. She smiled and walked over to her Aunt, who was only blinking. She placed electric handcuffs around her wrists. Time started again. "You bitch! You're just like your mother!" bellowed Esme. "You know I felt sorry you.. But now I've realised you've been jealous of Mum's success, since she married my dad!" shouted Delyla. She spat on her Aunt's shoes. "Family means we love each other no matter what.. That includes faults, and mistakes." whispered Valery. The Teen Titans smiled, as they destroyed the last beasts. "I think it's time for a large pizza." giggled Starfire. A couple of Raven's nodded, along with Cyborg. "I'll go with you two, to the Prison for Villains." commanded Robin. They both nodded their head.
Esme was guided to a stone prison cell. It's walls dripped with slime. The guard locked her in the little room. She rolled her eyes and sat down on the bed. Her tattoo went quite well with her orange Prison Cell jumpsuit. "I warned you, Black Widow." whispered Slade. He was standing in the shadows near the tight small window. "Oh shut up, and help me get out of here." she stated furiously. "Only, if you listen to what I tell you." commanded Slade. He quickly stood beside Esme, and held onto her arm. It began to turn red, and go bright blue. "Okay.. Okay, Slade!" she whispered. He cleared his throat, and released her arm. "Let me think for a minute." replied Slade.
