I AM SOOOOOO SORRY! I haven't posted for long ass time so here is the much awaited wait for the next chapter. And everyone wanders who Raven is getting with, the only clue I am giving away is that its one of Terra's brothers. Now here is a warning there is some comedic sense in this chapter, but other than that it is pretty serious.
Terra stood in one of the backrooms of the chapel letting Raven fix the train of her dress. There were butterflies in her stomach and she felt like she could throw up at any second, but she kept here breathing calm and sat down once Raven was done. She was afraid at how Starfire was going to do her make up but Raven kept reassuring her that she wasn't going to let the Tamaranian Princess do anything too...drasstic. Durring the process the blonde girl had fallen asleep the quiet orchestra music filling her ears from the Alter Room. Slade sat in the sitting room of her dressing room reading a book on how to be a good father-in-law, and next in his stack was how to be a good grand-father. She remembers the morning she revealed that she was already pregnant.
Flashback:
Terra sat in her bathroom starring at the tiny stick in her hand with wide panicked eyes her breathing becoming erratic. She knew this was going to happen since she realized that she was one week late on her period. Hiding the test in her pocket she snuck out of her room and went into Beastboys, he was sleeping face first in his bed snoring slightly, it was of course 3 in the morning when she decided to sneack into Starfires room and take one of the alien girls' pregnancy tests. Crawling over to his bed she slightly shook him awake.
"Terra? Its three in the morning is everything alright?" He asked coming to alert in an instant.
"BB...I'm pregnant." She said her eyes watering up as the silent sobs began to surface. Beastboy pulled her onto the bed and hugged her close rocking her side to side making shushing noises.
"Come on lets go wake everyone up." He said leading her down to the OPS room and sat her on the bed. Beastboy covered his eyes as he slammed his hand down onto the emergency alarm button. The one no one was allowed to press unless it was a dire emergancy. Terra blinked at her soon to be husband and smacked her forehead using one of the couch pillows to hide her face. Raven was the first one to appear her face looking murderous.
"Beastboy!" She growled then looked at Terra seeing the girl hiding her face.
"We have something to tell everyone...it's important." Beastboy stated as everyone pilled into the room. Slade had taken his place next to Terra who only scooted away from him.
"Okay whats going on?" Robin and Slade both asked. Terra stood from her spot and walked over to standing next to Beastboy. Everyone starred at them patiently.
"Well you see neither of us expected this to happen and was hoping it wouldn't have until after the wedding...And well we're being responsible by not hiding it..." Beastboy began.
"OUT WITH IT GREEN ONE!" Slade snapped.
"OH FOR GODS SAKE! I'M PREGNANT!" Terra shouted, Cyborg began chocking on the coffee he sipped down, Starfire squealed in happiness, Raven's mouth dropped before she erupted into a fit of laughter, Robin looked at them then just went back to his room. Slade's eye twitched before sending at least 20 of his robots after Beastboy. Terra felt refreshed after getting it off her chest and went back to bed only to be woken up a few hours later with morning sickness.
"Terra are you alright?" Came Ravens voice.
"I'm not ready for this Raven...I'm not ready." Terra cried her shoulders shaking as tears dripped from her eyes.
"I know you're not ready, but you've got your entire family backing you up with this. And none of us are going to leave you for a second." Raven promised sitting beside the young girl rubbing her back.
End Flashback:
"Terra you need to wake up...it's almost time." Raven shook the girl, the blond opened her eyes to see that her father had picked her up and they were carring her towards the alter.
"I can walk you know." She said growchly yawning.
"Yea well I know how you are on heals and there is no way I am chancing the baby getting harmed from you tripping." Slade stated darkly, Terra narrowed her eyes before pinching him on the chest causing him to drop her. Terra landed on her feet perfectly and began walking.
"She acts just like how her mother was when that blasted woman was pregnant with her!" Slade growled.
"I wander whose fault that is! You impregnated her!" Terra shouted at him turning to him with dark eyes.
"I pity your husband." Slade joked only to get a boulder flung at him.
"I AM NOT BITCHY!" Terra screamed kicking Slade in the knee.
"YOU ARE SO TO BITCHY! YOU ARE WORST THAN YOUR MOTHER!" Slade shouted back at his daughter yanking on her ear.
"LET GO OF ME YOU EGOTISTICAL PSYCHOPATHIC FATHER!" Terra screamed again somehow managing to get a hold of Slades other hand in her mouth.
"GOD DAMN IT TERRA STOP BITING ME ALREADY!" Slade ordered her.
In the alter room Beastboy and Robin looked at each other and shivered, they dared Terra's grandfather to come and ruin this wedding...no one would be escaping alive if they did. Jon, Chris and Michael all slapped there foreheads when a loud crash was heard from the hallway and Slade screaming at Terra some more.
"Dude...I pity you right now." Cyborg laughed, Beastboy sighed and stood waiting as the screaming and arguing got louder. He noticed that Terra's bad temper was always aimed at Slade and not himself. That thought made him beem with pride. She had only been pregnant for a week and her mood swings were already out of control, so far Jump City has been hit with 200 earthquales due to it.
"If you do not calm down Terra I am taking you home!" Slade shouted.
"I FUCKING DARE YOU, YOU CONTROL FREAK! THIS IS MY WEDDING AND NOBODY AND I MEAN NOBODY IS GOING TO RUIN IT SO QUIET DOWN AND PRETEND TO BE HAPPY OR SO HELP ME GOD I WILL CRUSH YOU!" Terra screamed, everything went quiet, the Priest looked utterly scared by now.
"WILL THE BOTH OF YOU SHUT UP ALREADY YOU'RE GIVING ME A HEADACHE! AND SLADE DON'T YOU DARE MAKE YOUR OWN DAUGHTER GO INTO PREMATURE LABOR OR SO HELP ME GOD I WILL KILL YOU PERSONALLY!" Raven screamed out finally.
"I thank god that this is a small wedding." Robin groaned seeing Titans East and Few other of their close Titan friends shift and silently laughing at Slades misfortune. Soon everyone was calmed down and the Wedding March Song was being played. Beastboy beemed happily as he watched a visibly annoyed Slade walking a triumphantly looking Terra down the isle. Starfire had the hugest grin upon her face while Raven looked stressed from all the emotions she was being bombarded with.
'Don't worry Raven it'll all be over soon.' Beastboy thought.
'Oh I hope so or I'm going to skin alive your wife and your father-in-law both for disrupting my calm mind!' Raven said telepathecally back.
'Oh come now Raven, its not that bad!' Malanna interupted, everyone just ignored her. Terra was handed off to Beastboy with no interuptions, Slade was still a bit annoyed. Cyborg sighed in relief when the preist began the ceremony.
"And do you Beastboy, take this woman..."
"I do." Beastboy answered happily.
"And do you Terra, take this man..."
"I..." Terra began to answer when the ceiling above them gave out and army of stone monsters appearing. Beastboy sheilded Terra everyone waiting and watching the area behind them as the dust began to settle. Richard stood there with his arms crossed an army of earth monsters and Geomancers behind him.
"You have got to be kidding me!" Terra whined being pushed to behind Beastboy and Slade.
"This is a private wedding Richard...you are not invited!" Slade hissed pointing at the un-aging man.
"Oh come now Slade, she is my grand-daughter, how could I not see this momentous occasion of the disgrace getting married!" Richard laugh.
"She is NOT a disgrace grandfather...but YOU are!" Jon shouted taking his place next to Slade.
"Of course the three moronic triplets side with the two faced abomination." Richard laughed dryly, Jon went to attack him but Slade grabbed his shoulder stopping the boy from doing anything.
"What is your real intentions?" Slade asked his visible eye narrowing.
"I warned you all that I would come for her if you did not kill her. Now, I will defeat you all and take her anyway." Richard snickered stepping forward, a black shield shot up and separated him from them.
"That will not be happening!" Cyborg shouted aiming his ray blaster at Richard.
"Yes, we will not let you kill our friend!" Starfire growled her hands glowing with her starbolts, her eyes glowing green.
"Who ever said I wanted to kill her now? Malanna has been fully released and that is something I can use." Richards' voice echoed darkly, everyone froze when they realized what was going on.
"Beastboy get Terra out of here...NOW!" Robin yelled, Beastboy turned into a lion forcing Terra onto his back and ran out a back door.
"Landlures after the green one and fetch my grand-daughter...Men attack and make sure they don't run to help their friends...I'll be waiting and this time there better be no failures!" Richard hissed and fazed into the earth disappearing.
"Damn...we are so royally fucked!" Jon hissed running out and attacking on of the other Geomancers.
"Slade what should we do about Beastboy and Terra?" Raven shouted sending a church bench into some of Richards soldiers.
"Lets hope they get away...because as of now, they're on their own." Slade replief regretfully. Beastboy and Terra escaped into the mountains just out of the city running from the earth moving creatures.
"What the hell are those things?" Beastboy shouted keeping a tight grip on Terra's hand.
"They're called Landlures, they were created with the Geomancers DNA. Which ever element is out there...there is most likely a Landlure for it, at least only one of the other elements. The earthy rock Landlure Creatures have been the only ones thus far to survive this far! They're hard to take down, but not impossible to kill." Terra explained easily keeping up with Beastboy.
"How do you kill them?" He asked.
"Radiation." Terra said solemnly.
"Damn...well then I guess we keep running." Beastboy said pushing himself faster making sure Terra was able to keep up. They suddenly had to skid to a stop when a group of the Landlures appeard out of the ground in front of them.
"Beastboy I hate to say this, but because of the baby...my powers are limited." Terra confessed hiding behind her almost husband.
"Raven explained it to me already...we can't beat them can we?" He asked.
"The possibilty is very slim BB...I've never fought them before." She answered him.
"Then stay safe, if you get captured I swear...I will get you back!" Beastboy swore wrapping his arm around Terra's waist pulling her close to him and meshed his lips onto hers. Terra kissed back eagerly before she was pushed back into crook in the mountain cliff.
"Run Terra...and don't look back...NOW!" Beastboy yelled turning into a T-Rex and attacked the creatures, tears came to the blonds face as she blindly slipped through the crack and into a cave running down the cave hall. Some of the Landlures followed closely behind her. Didn't last as long as head hoped he would when he told Terra to run, they had easliy learned his moves and attacked his weaknesses. And once he was knocked down they all went after Terra, he tried to stand to go after them but he fell back down to the ground his vision blurring. The ground he laid on soon shook violently.
"BEASTBOY!" He heard Terra's scream before his world went black. Starfire flew over the mountians, bruises covered her skin where it was exposed. She spotted Beastboy the second his green hair came into view.
"Beastboy!" Starfire yelled flying down and kneeled beside him.
"They got her...those fuckers...got her." He managed out letting the red head help him stand.
"Yes...we have already aquired that knowledge after the earthquake. Right now though we need to get you back." Starfire said drapping his arm over her shoulders and flew into the sky back towards the tower.
"Oh my god Beastboy!" Raven yelled running over to him and began healing his wounds.
"Well I guess I was mistaken...someone was injured." Michael said pushing his fingers through his hair.
"What...are they...going to do...to her?" Beastboy breathed out forcing himself to stay awake.
"I'm not sure at this point Beastboy, but I know for sure that her unborn child is in more danger than she is." Slade explained standing from the couch and walked to the oversize window.
"What do you mean?" Robin asked looking up from the computer.
"When my wife was pregnant with Terra, Richard had tried everything in his power to create some sort of accident that could possibly cause her to miscarriage. If I know Richard and I know he had not yet changed, he will force her to get abortion or worst chance with killing Terra knowing Malanna can only heal either Terra or the baby...not both." Slade explained then turned to Robin darkly.
"Please hurry it up and find my daughter." He unintentionally hissed.
"On it." Robin answered and began typing away.
'Why do I have a sick feeling that we're already too late.' Raven thought letting Beastboy fall asleep with his head in her lap.
In Russia Terra laid on the dirt ground laying in her own puddle of blood fresh tears still falling from her eyes. I croocked dagger laid a few meters away stained with her own blood Richard stood not too far off. He stood there smirking at her.
"Don't cry my dear Terra, we've cured at least one part of your disgrace. Now all that's left is to cure you of Malanna. She has cursed you." Richard said soothingly walking over and knelt by Terra smoothing her tangled blond hair.
"...she is not a curse...you are." Terra whispered, Richards eyes narrowed in anger before yanking her up by the roots of her hair and threw her into the stone cave wall. Terra kept her blanace keeping herself from falling back to the ground. Her fingers dug into the wall.
"No Terra you are the curse. You have always been the curse of this family! YOU are the reason why my daughter is dead, you KILLED your own mother young lady! Don't you understand that yet?" RIchard shouted pointing at her. Terra stood their her back still facing the man, her blood staind hair covered her face hiding the tears which silently fell.
"You're the reason why a MONSTER was almost brought into this world. I did you a kindness by disposing of that vile thing! Now if you will excuse me I have some preparations to attend to." Richard hissed and fazed through the earth around them. Terra turned her head to make sure he was gone.
"Malanna?" She chocked fighting back sobs.
'I am sorry Terra...but I couldn't save both of you.' Malanna answered, Terra let the agonizing sob escape her throat. Slowly sliding to sitting on her knees she tangled her fingers into her hair crying. She sensed no escape from the room as she looked around it. She was trapped inside a pocket somewhere within the colony her grandfather ruled. Terra closed her eyes and pushed the psych of her mind outward searching for Ravens. The Titans were arguing over how they were going to find Terra and rescued her when Raven fell silent and collapsed, Cyborg catching her before she hit the ground.
'...Raven?...' Terra aked appearing before Raven in the Empaths mind.
'TERRA! Oh my god...are you alright?' Raven asked running to the girl hugging her.
'No...I'm not okay! I'm locked in one of the colonies prisons here in Russia...He killed my baby...I can't do this Raven...I need Beastboy before I fall apart.' Terra cried burrying her face into Ravens chest.
'We're coming to get you...all of us are. So don't you worry.' Raven soothed shushing Terra.
'I want to speak to my father before my mind forces me to sleep...is that possible?' Terra asked her body shaking.
'Of course...everything will be black for a while. I'll force him to sleep and then he should appear soon. I'll give you both some time alone.' Raven explained before opening her eyes seeing everyone towering over her.
"Was it Terra?" Beastboy asked.
"Yes and Slade you were correct...Richard did kill the baby and right now I need to force you to sleep...She needs you...She needs her father." Raven explained slowly. Slade nodded his head following Raven to the infirmary where he laid on one of the beds letting Raven connect his mind with Terras.
When the images were clear he saw Terra sitting there hugging her knees crying loudly. He walked over and sat next to her letting her cling to him when she swung her arms around his shoulders.
'It's okay baby, daddy's right here.' He cooed in her ear running his hand down her hair.
'I need you to come and get me daddy...I need your help.' She cried her body shaking with the sobs.
'I know and the second you fall asleep and I wake...we're coming to get you. I swear it, Richard won't get away with this. He hurt you Terra and I swear I will not stand back and let this go any further!' Slade swore kissing the side of Terra's head. Terra soon calmed down and just sat there in her dads lap.
"I have this feeling I'm going to loose you." She whispered letting him rock her.
"Just remember I will always be in your heart." He reminded her Terra smiled.
"You tucked me in, turned out the light
Kept me safe and sound at night
Little girls depend on things like that" Terra's voice trembled taking deep breaths.
"Brushed my teeth and combed my hair
Had to drive me everywhere
You were always there when I looked back
You had to do it all alone
Make a living, make a home
Must have been as hard as it could be
And when I couldn't sleep at night
Scared things wouldn't turn out right
You would hold my hand and sing to me" Terra sang her voice slightly trembling from all the emotions swelling up inside her.
"Caterpillar in the tree
How you wonder who you'll be
Can't go far but you can always dream
Wish you may and wish you might
Don't you worry, hold on tight
I promise you there will come a day
Butterfly fly away
Butterfly fly away, butterfly fly away
Flap your wings now you can't stay
Take those dreams and make them all come true
Butterfly fly away, butterfly fly away
We've been waiting for this day
All along and knowing just what to do
Butterfly, butterfly, butterfly, butterfly fly away
Butterfly fly away
Butterfly fly away" Slade sang with Terra watching as she slowly faded from their connection as he mind finally fell asleep. Slade smiled to himself before opening his eyes.
"Well...do you know where she's at?" Raven asked everyone watched him.
"We're going to Russia, we are going to attack Richards colony and we are going to rescue my daughter...Get ready to lead the way Michael...cause you're leading us there." Slade ordered and soon they were all readying themselves for battle.
'Hold on Terra...We're coming to get you!' Beastboy thought.
