Final Stand
It was easy for Beast Boy to creep into Raven's hideout. Getting out he knew would be the problem. It seemed as if she had sent every demon to attack and destroy group of survivors. Which probably wouldn't have been a very smart move if Beast Boy had brought someone else with him. Someone who could do a lot of damage. Starfire, for example. But not him. He knew that with Raven's advanced telekinesis, she could just simply pinned him to the wall and be done with him.
The green boy's nerves were getting the better of him. Now that he was here, maybe this wasn't the smartest cause of action. "I mean," BB whispered to himself. "What could I possible say that she hasn't already heard?"
"Indeed," Raven's voiced echoed all round him.
"Raven," Beast Boy voice croaked. "You knew I was here?"
"Of course," her voice sounded so cold. "Well then my dear friend, what is it you have come to tell me?"
Beast Boy was shaking. Until now he had never thought that he could be this afraid of Raven. He wondered if Robin had felt this way before…
Raven interrupted his thoughts. "Come, come now I don't have all day!" There was anger growing in her tone. The ground of which Beast Boy was standing began to shake violently.
"Please Raven, I not going to speak to your voice. I want to see your face," Beast Boy found a strength within him that he never knew he had. "You own me that much!" he shouted.
For a few seconds there was complete silence. Beast Boy whirled around, looking anxiously for any signs of the girl's presences. Then a dark mist appeared in front of him. It took the shape of a Raven before melting into the figure of a young woman. Beast Boy couldn't believe his eyes. She looked so different.
Raven raised her red eyes at the human. "I own you nothing, vermin," she hissed.
"Yes you do!" Beast Boy cried. "You took my friend away from me! And now I want her back!"
Raven chuckled to herself. "Little fool. Your friend is dead. Why are you the only one that can not accept that?"
Out of anger a green ram charged the demon, who merely flicked her wrists to send the creature flying back the way it had came. Beast Boy groaned as he picked himself up. The demon smiled, baring her fangs. She tossed her head to the right and Beast Boy was propelled upwards, smacking his body on the ceiling. Then he let out a gasp as Raven let go of him, sending his body plummeting to the ground. He landed with a loud thud.
"Raven," The green boy tried to stand but fell back down again. "I'm your friend. You have to remember me. You have to fight the demon,"
The demon snarled. "I've heard all of this before,"
"I don't care!" he yelled. "I know there's a part of Raven who still remembers who she is trapped inside of you. And I will find her!"
The demon seemed to be taken a back by the human's outburst, but it was only for a second. She smiled to herself. "While you waste your time, your friends are dieing. If you leave now, I'll let you die with them, instead of by yourself fighting for a lost cause,"
In response Beast Boy became a gorilla.
"So be it," the demon whispered.

"He did what!" Cyborg shouted at Terra. "Why didn't you try to stop him!"
Tears fell down Terra's pale cheeks. "I tried…"
"Trying isn't good enough Terra!" Cyborg yelled. "You could have stopped him. You should have! Or better yet, you could have told us the second he had gone. We could have all stopped him!"
Terra collapsed on the floor in a flood of tears. "I'm sorry. I'm so sorry,"
Starfire glared at Cyborg. The pretty alien girl lean besides the sobbing Terra. "It's alright Terra. It was not your fault," She ran her fingers through the other girls hair.
"I'm sure he will be fine," she lied.
"I'm sorry Terra. I shouldn't have yelled at you like that," Cyborg looked guilty. "It's just BB's my best friend…."
Terra gave a nod to say that she had accepted the Titan's apology.
"I doubt there was very little we could have done to stop him anyway," Wilson spoke, hidden in the shadows in the corner of the room. "The boy never really accepted that Raven was gone. This was bonded to happen sooner or later,"
Speedy raced into the room. "Cyborg we've got trouble! Check the monitors!"
Instantly Cyborg obeyed. After a few seconds, the screens blinked on to scenes of the city being ravenously attacked by hundreds upon hundreds of demons. The Titans stared in horror.
Starfire stepped towards the door, but she was stopped by Terra. "Where are you going?" the blonde girl asked.
The alien lowered her head. "To do what I must," she whispered.
"But that's crazy!" Terra gasped. "It's like suicide!"
"There are people out there, I must help them," Starfire raised her head. Her green eyes were met with hard glances.
"She's right," Speedy stepped forth. "We're the Titans. We have to help,"
The two Titans began to dart out the room when Wilson called for them to wait. They paused for a moment to hear what he had to say.
"Terra has a point. What good would you be to the city if you are all dead?"
Starfire shook her head. "We can not just sit back and do nothing!"
"I'm not saying that we do. What is suggest is that we try out that little gadget of ours now. Raven is the source of all this once she is dead then so will the demons be,"
Cyborg nodded. "He's right. But we can't all go and attack Raven. Some of us have to help those people out there," He pointed to the computer screens to show people running in terror.
"I'll go to Raven," said Terra quickly.
Speedy gave a look of worry. "I'm not sure that's such a good idea…"
Terra glared at him. "I can handle it!"
The Titans glanced at once another. It was agreed. Terra would go after Raven. The others they would try to hold back Raven's demon's for as long as they could. In the back of Starfire's mind images of her and Robin fluttered into her mind. No! She forced them away. Robin was gone. Robin was dead. All that remained of him was an empty shell. He was her enemy now. She would have to fight him. Fight him to the death.
