Chapter 12: Ideas and Destruction
"In titans tower both Beast Boy and Raven were talking in their room about the events that had happened earlier that day in Ravens mind. "Raven, what do you think that knowledge meant when she said that it was up to me to choose between my wife and friends or our daughter?" He asked worried about the fact that he might lose his friends and wife or just his daughter.
Raven looked at him sadly. "Beast Boy, if you have to choose, I want you to choose our daughter."
"Like that is fair to everyone else and I don't want to lose anybody especially you or our daughter. I want to be with you forever. Raven, for once I am going to admit that I have never been so terrified in my life."
"Beast Boy, I am scared to and I never thought that I would ever have the chance to have a family at all and now that I do, I don't want to lose them. You have to promise that this will not be brought up to the others, ok."
"Sure, but what do we do Raven?" Beast Boy was now crying very hard.
"Beast Boy, you have every right to cry right now so go ahead." After saying that, Raven sat next to her husband and cuddled with him. After a few minutes Beast Boy stopped crying and thanked Raven for staying with him.
Then they both walked out of the room and straight to the common room to find that all the titans were there watching T.V. and talking. Then Beast Boy and Raven went to the couch with the others and sat down next to each other. Then Robin spoke up. "We have been wanting to talk to you two about the Terra incident. Is that ok with you?" They nodded their heads and the conversation continued. "Beast Boy, Raven, Cyborg and Starfire feel that you miss Terra and I agree with them."
Beast Boy was the first to speak up. "No Robin, I don't miss Terra but I don't like the fact that she sacrificed herself for no reason." Then Raven spoke and said the same thing.
"Well, I have a theory." Everyone stared at Robin wondering what this theory was. "I think that since none of us have actually seen Terra except for you two then maybe you're going through the same thing that I went through with Slade. She isn't really there but you two are obsessed with her in one way or another and now you see her every where." Though that theory sounded good to Starfire and Cyborg, Beast Boy and Raven weren't buying that theory at all. "So, what do you think?"
Beast Boy spoke again but this time with a theory of his own. "Ok but let's think of it this way, what if she never did die and she had a ploy? What do you think of that Robin?" All the titans except Raven had a look of awe.
"So what you're saying is that she came up with a way to trick Slade?" Cyborg said still shocked that Beast Boy came up with a theory at all.
"Yes Cyborg; that is exactly what I am saying. I don't have a clue how she did it without being seen but that is the only explanation." Beast Boy said proud that he outwitted Robin but didn't show it off.
"So Beast Boy, why would she do that and not tell us?" Robin asked and waiting for Beast Boy to reply.
"I can't say but something is really wrong with this whole situation with Terra. Raven agrees with me that something doesn't feel right. End of this discussion. Then they left leaving the other three titans on the couch.
"Robin, what do you think?" Cyborg asked
"I think that the two of them may be right about this and it scares me. Let's keep an eye out for Terra." Robin said ending the topic.
Meanwhile in Slades lair, Slade was thinking of a way to lure the titans out quickly to show the titans a taste of his newly found powers. Then he thought of something. 'I know exactly what to do.' He said to himself then he rushed out of his lair and to the police station. He quietly bolted steel planks onto every exit possible on the police station or as quietly as you can with steel planks. Then as he headed to the power box he heard yelling from the inside and the first thing he cut was the phone line then he cut the power to the alarms and just in time to as the alarm started but quickly died. As for the garage to the station, he used a ton of other cars and made a blockade in front of the garage door. "This will cause less trouble for me later on." Finally after finishing that, he started destroying buildings so that the titans could see him from their giant window.
Back at titans' tower, Robin and Cyborg were playing videogames when a big explosion was heard. Robin got up and looked out the window as another explosion went off. He saw Slade blowing up multiple buildings. "Titans; emergency!" All the titans rushed into the common room. Everyone, it's Slade and this time he is blowing buildings apart. It's time to take him down once and for all. Titans Go!" He said and everyone was off. They got to the city and most of the buildings were destroyed and bloody bodies were everywhere plus some lamp posts. 'Where are the cops?' Robin thought when they got to the area Slade is in. "Slade, where are your little buddies?"
Slade turned around and gave a wicked smile that was hidden behind his mask. "I was hopping that you would show up. If you want to know where my so called buddies are then let me show you." Robin and the titans were looking around for them but didn't see anyone. Slade jumped up in the air and shot beams of light that the titans weren't expecting and hit Starfire, Cyborg and Robin but only knocked out Cyborg and missed Beast Boy and Raven. Before the titans could react Slade had already teleported behind Starfire and Robin and knocked those two out. "Now for you two." He tried the same thing that he used on Starfire and Robin but failed.
"Slade, I know what you did to the other two. You used a power spell, that's why you got Mumbo and Dr. Light on your side so that you could take their power from them and as a result kill them by turning them into dust." Raven said full of anger.
"Very clever Raven, very clever but you're off a little. You see, the power spell was a bonus to escaping, so you see, I really did need help to escape. So the fight begins."
