Teen Titans:
Chapter 9: Terra's Diary
By: Big Guv
As Beast boy looked at the first page, he saw a drawn picture of
Terra and saw the words written under it, "Terra's Diary".
Terra's Diary: If feels funny having a diary, but my two friends at school
said that I should have one for I can write about anything I can't talk
to anyone about.
After reading that much, Beast boy wondered if he should invade her
privacy, but quickly got that out of his mind as he hoped for a clue
to her whereabouts.
Terra's Diary: I remember the day that I finally got out of my prison.
A small Earthquake happened, but this time it wasn't because of me.
It just happened out of nowhere. As the Earthquake went on for a few
seconds, I hoped that I would fall and my prison of cement would
crack enough for I can move and break it myself, or either just shatter
completely without harming me. Eventually I did fall, falling with my
forehead hitting the ground. But, nothing shattered, nothing cracked,
nothing happened. If I could of opened my eyes at that moment, I think
I would of shredded tears cuz I lost all hope in living. I just wanted to die
instead of suffering like this.
As Beast boy read and read, he thought about the day she was imprisoned,
but then quickly got back on track as he continued to read with a sad look
in his eyes.
Terra's Diary: It felt like days went by as I laid on the hot ground
not to far over all the lava that flowed through the cave. As I laid there,
I just wished that I fall in, but never did. It was hard for me to keep my
sanity while I was prisoned inside that shell. When I wasn't thinking about
much, I past my time with singing songs in my head, and thought about
movies that I use to watch. Til this day I still wonder how I survived
without food and water.
As Beast boy turned the page he read something and thought of someone
who was linked to her becoming flesh again.
Terra's Diary: One day as I laid on the hot ground, I herd footsteps inside the cave.
I hope that they came my way and saw me on the ground, but I also hoped that
they wasn't Slade's foot steps either. The footsteps got closer and closer and
stopped on the side of me. Even though I wasn't free of my prison, I was
happy because that showed me that their was hope of escaping.
Not to long after the footsteps stopped, I felt a hand rub
down the back of my head down to my neck.
I hoped and hoped and hoped for it to be
Beast boy, but I kinda knew it wasn't.
Beast boy scooted to the foot of the and sat there as he kind of had
a feeling to who it was.
Beast boy: "Slade..."
He then continued to sit there as he read more in Terra's Diary.
Terra's Diary: As the hand reached my neck, I then felt something
slowly pierce a small hole through the solid cement that surrounded
my body. As it slowly and easily went through, I then felt a poke in
the center of my neck. It felt as if it was a needle, but... but a needle
can't go through cement. But somehow, this kind did, and it went
right into my neck injecting something inside me.
After the injection, it felt as if the heavy cement prison around me
was not gone, but I still couldn't move.
The needle left my neck and then another one entered my right arm
drawing blood. It hurt, but didn't take long for them to pull out the
needle. I then herd him take two steps back and then said,
'Thanks for the blood sample...Terra.' From the voice, I knew it wasn't
Beast boy, and I knew it wasn't Slade. It felt like more days past
as the heat within the cave entered the two small wholes that
guy left. As the heat entered, it felt as if the cement was cracking from
the inside because of the heat, and it was. Hours after hours I herd the
thick cement crack and felt it crack in certain places like by my legs,
my arms, and my face. After a whole day or two, or probably three,
the my prison was now ready to break. Barley able to move, I moved
my arms and legs little by little and continued to push the cement.
Hours past and I was exhausted, but kept going at it until I herd
something drop. It was a piece of cement from my left arm.
As that piece fell, many others fell after it until I was finally free.
As I pushed off the hot ground with my hands, all or the other
pieces along with dust fell to the ground from my back and head.
I looked with a smile on my face and as I looked up, I saw a light
leading to the outside world that I long missed. The first person I
wanted to see was Beast boy, but knew if I did that, all I would do
is cause trouble for him. And Slade... If Slade found me, who knows
what he would try to do to me. As I finally looked at myself, I saw that
the gear that Slade attached to my body was also gone. A little rusty with
my powers, I summoned a boulder and jumped on it as I made it quickly
toward the light. As I went up toward the light, I made a promise to
start a new life. Go somewhere that Slade would never find me.
And making it for Slade could never find me, I'd have to stay
away from Beast boy...I miss him. I finally got up to where the light
shined through a whole and summoned another boulder to hit it and
make the whole where the light was bigger for I can escape.
Everything went as planed and I was free. I reached the surface and
jumped onto it as I laid on the ground for a minute, laughing and crying
can't believing that I was finally free. I then pulled myself together and stood
up. I looked over to my right and saw the city I once stayed. I told myself
not to go back there, but I couldn't help it. I had to go, maybe because I didn't
want to be too far away from Beast boy, hoping that I'll see him again one day.
As I headed to the city, I looked back and saw the huge whole I created and
decided to cover it up with boulders for no one could see it. I then looked straight
and saw a carnival. It was like a ghost town, no one was there. And there was
a huge place with the name up top, 'House of Mirrors'. I didn't like it, the place gave
me bad memories of the one me and Beast boy once went to. So I quickly left without
looking back as I headed to town. Well that's All I'm writing for today, I guess
I'll write more another day.
Beast boy turned the page hoping for more to be in the diary
but nothing else was written inside.
Beast boy: A house of mirrors? The last time I saw Slade was at
the last house of mirrors Terra and I went to. Is there a connection?
I have to find out, I need to go and I need to go now!
A hour had finally past and Robin went and knocked on
Beast boy's door.
Robin: "Beast boy, you in there?"
The door then automatically opened as Robin stepped into the room.
Robin: "Beast boy?"
As he stood still for a moment, Robin then felt a breeze coming from
his right. He then looked right and saw that the window was open and
realized that Beast boy had already left.
Robin: "Darn it Beast Boy!"
As Robin walked up to the window, Raven quietly walked up behind him.
Raven: "I'm taking it as Beast boy left."
Robin: "Why...why would he go after Slade alone?"
Raven: "Probably because he believes that he needs to do this himself."
Robin: "..."
Raven: "Don't forget, Slade wants him to go alone. If we went with,
who knows what type of danger Terra would be in."
Robin: That's it. I understand what you've plained now,
but where did you run off to?
Raven: "Robin?"
Robin: "We leave to find Beast boy on the double, can you go let Cyborg and Star know whats going on for me Raven?"
Raven: "...Right."
As Raven left the room, Robin stayed for a minute to try to find a clue to where
Beast Boy went. As he let his eyes search the room, he saw that the diary he past Beast boy earlier was open, and saw the last paragraph what were written.
Robin: Good job Beast Boy.
As Robin finally found out where Beast boy was headed, the rest of the
Titans joined Robin in Beast Boy's room.
Cyborg: "Yo Robin! We herd"
Robin: "Good."
Cyborg: "But where are we going to look?"
Robin: "I know where he's going."
Cyborg the put a serious look on his face as if he was ready for action
Cyborg: "You ready?"
With the rest of the Titans getting prepared for evacuation, Beast boy
already stood in front of the House of Mirrors.
Beast boy: Slade's here, Terra's here too, I just know it.
Beast boy then walked to the front door and looked up to
see that it was starting to rain as he saw lightning and herd
thunder in the sky.
Beast boy: "Here I come Terra, I will save you... I promise."
