Hey, guys. Sorry that took so long. I had a rough week, because my family suffered a loss last weekend. It's been sad, but I'm slowly getting back on track. So, here I am with the next chapter. I promise it won't take me as long next time. Enjoy guys.

March 13, 2010- 8:45 P.M. Titans Tower Hallways

Robin held his girlfriend's hand as they sped down the hallway. The lights flickered and Starfire whimpered as the alarm began to go off. "WE HAVE TO FIND CYBORG AND RAVEN!" Robin exclaimed over the alarm. Starfire nodded and followed Robin closely as they continued to run down the hallway. Robin stared at the end of the long hall, where the lights flickered on and off against the metal wall. Robin blinked, seeing a silhouette of a person standing in the light. But, as soon as the lights went off and back on, it was gone. Robin stopped, causing Starfire to slam into him and sending them both toppling to the floor.

"What is the problem?!" Starfire yelled, the alarm as loud as ever. Red lights then began to flash in the hallway, making a strobe light effect. Robin panted and looked back at the wall, sighing when the silhouette did not appear again. "Robin!" Starfire yelled, nudging him.

Turning his head, Robin replied, "Nothing, Star." The two stood and began to run towards the Commonroom again. Turning and sprinting through the sliding doors, Robin headed straight for the windows. "Come on!" He yelled. Starfire watched as Robin hit something on the control panel, shutting off the alarm. Pointing to the window, he said, "We've got to get out of here. The sooner we do, we can find Raven and Cyborg and get help!" Starfire nodded and floated to the glass windows, rearing her fist back and punching the glass.

Robin cringed, expecting the glass to shatter. However, both teens were surprised when the glass didn't budge. "What?!" Starfire whimpered. Robin's eyes widened and the two ran back into the hallway. As they turned the corner, Robin bumped into some bulky and large. He grabbed his chest and looked up, exclaiming, "Cyborg!"

"Man, we gotta get somewhere safe! The whole place is locked! We're trapped!" Cyborg yelled. Raven, who was behind him, gestured for them to follow her as they ran down the next hallway. "B's whack!" Robin followed Raven down the hallway, turning and running down the stairs to the basement.

Starfire exclaimed, "Why the basement?!"

"It's where he came from!" Raven yelled back. She gestured for the three to run down the stairs, quickly closing the door behind them all. As they reached the familiar metal door at the bottom of the steps, Raven saw Cyborg reach for the handle and swing it open.


March 13, 2010- 9:15 P.M. Basement

"Shut the door!"

"It's shut man! Turn off the lights!"

"You will attract him to us!"

"Would you kindly shut up!?" Raven rubbed her temples and Starfire looked around, tears beginning to run down her cheeks.

Starfire let out a small sob. "I am scared!" She admitted.

"Me too..." Robin sighed. Cyborg frowned and Raven dropped her hands and slouched.

Raven whispered, "We have to keep quiet until I can figure out how to get Leviathan out of Beast Boy's body."

"Who?" Cyborg queried, staring at the darkness where the Empath would be standing.

With the box still in her hands, Raven replied, "That's the name of the demon. He's extremely hard to defeat and I'll be lucky if I have any chance of beating him without anything to hep me."

"Aren't you half demon?" Robin asked, now holding Starfire in his arms.

Raven shook her head. "Yes, but it's not that easy."

"We should just hang low and let Rae think," Cyborg said. The team sat down, leaning on the walls as Raven stared at the box in front of her.

There's got to be something I can do... I suppose the fact that we're in the basement, which is where he came from, is helpful. But, what can I do? I promise we'll save you, Beast Boy.


March 13, 2010- 10:45 P.M.

I'm so scared. I can't breathe. I can't move. I can only see what's in front of me. I see- what' its name?- Leviathan's hands touch the walls as we make our way down the hallway.

"Let me go!" I scream in my head. Leviathan doesn't respond, he simply raises a fist and punches my face. I cringe, feeling the punch, but unable to stop it. "STOP!" I whimper. Leviathan raises both hands, scratching my face. I feel warm liquid covering my cheeks and I know I'm bleeding. I'm helpless. I won't make it through and I can't do anything to save my friends either...

Raven. I can't stop thinking about what happened in my room. I had no control over what was going on, but I kind of liked it. I'm going to miss her. Before this all ends, I want to be able to say one more thing to her. Just one more thing. What? I don't know, dude. I just know that I'm not coming back and I want one last moment.

Another punch. "OW!" I cry in my mind. Leviathan laughs, filling my ears with my own laugh filled with an evil twist. With another whimper after another scratch, I stay silent.

I have succumbed.


March 13, 2010- 11:55 P.M.

"How have we stayed down here so long?" Starfire whispered to Robin. Robin shook his head and shrugged.

Cyborg replied, "Maybe he can't find us."

"That would be nice," Robin nodded. "But, it knows everything. It's probably trying to wear us out."

Starfire frowned and brought her knees to her chest, watching Raven sitting cross-legged with the box in front of her. Suddenly, she sat up straight, eyes wide. "That's it..." Raven whispered. "It's so simple."

"What?" Robin queried.

Raven opened her mouth to explain, only to be cut off. A bang suddenly caused them all to jump. The darkness was illuminated by the single light in the center of the two junk piles. Raven gulped and watched as Beast Boy's body- still possessed by Leviathan- emerged from the darkness and stood in the center of the pool of light. The four stood up and faced Leviathan. Beast Boy's face was even bloodier and had more bruises than before- as if Leviathan had beat him up.

"Beast Boy..." Raven whispered. Robin's eyes widen as Leviathan laughed, the sound filling the cold basement. The five stared at each other before Raven stepped forward, leaving the box on the floor. "Beast Boy, I know you're in there."

I'm here! I'm here!

Raven nodded and walked closer to the green figure. "Let me see him," she commanded, her voice now strong. The team behind her cowered in fear, confused as to what their friend was thinking. Leviathan twisted his face and narrowed his eyes slightly. "Now," Raven hissed, raising a fist covered in black energy. Leviathan reared back, as if frightened of something. Suddenly, Beast Boy's voice comes out of his own body.

"Raven! I'm here!" Beast Boy paused and reached for his throat, grabbing it in shock. "Raven?" He whispered.

Dropping her hand, Raven ran over, throwing her hands around Beast Boy's neck. "Beast Boy, listen, he's still in there."

"Raven, I need to tell you something!" Beast Boy exclaimed. Raven leaned back and watched Beast Boy look down at her, his green eyes wide. Raven raised an eyebrow as Beast Boy leaned down, crashing their lips together. Gasping, Raven shut her eyes and melted into the kiss.

Once the two parted, Raven whispered, "We have to focus on getting him out of you... Listen, I'm going to do something and you have to make sure that once you feel in control, grab that control and push him out. I need you to do this for me." Beast Boy nodded and Raven's lower lip quivered. "It'll be okay," she shakily said, more to calm herself than her companion. Cyborg, Robin and Starfire stood back, eyes wide with confusion.

As fast as Beast Boy was there, he was gone. Red eyes suddenly stared down at Raven and she felt the arms push her back onto the ground. "So, it begins," all of the Leviathan's voices laughed simultaneously.
