I don't own the Teen Titans
Okay, here's the next chapter. This concludes the main storyline. But that just means I have to write a concluding chapter, or possibly a chapter that expands some more of the story. Sorry for those of you who were looking for that RavenxOC action. I'm kinda busy right now, so I'm just gonna slap that in the sequels, which will only appear if you write reviews to commend my work, and show me that at least someone reads this stuff.
"Do you not understand that we can help you?" Starfire continued to plead, trying to find any way to turn the boy from his path. "You do not need to do this. I know you have suffered a terrible fate, but it was not the fault of my friends. That Ricks man was the one that killed Sarah, and you have had your revenge."
"Are you that stupid?" he asked in a hurt tone. "He wasn't a man. He was a robot, a puppet, put in place to fool Sarah, and people like you.You just couldn't believe me." He continued in silence no matter how much Starfire persisted.
Robin and the others had begun to head back to Titan's tower, hoping they could better track Starfire from their sensors there.Their communicators, unable to detect Starfire's because of some sort of radio interference, had been put away. When they reached the tower, they saw Starfire lying in front of it, obviously unconscious.
"Now you can understand what it feels like to lose the only thing you live for," Grey began, looking at Robin.
"Dude, it's not like Robin and Starfire are even going out. What kind of sick world do you live in that makes it worth anything to kill her?" Beast Boy asked, trying to reason with the ever more unstable Grey.
"You fools don't see it, and you live around each other. I saw it after the first day. I heard your heart rate jump and your steps become heavier when you referred to her. I watched as you looked for her, and felt your rage. You couldn't hide it if you were asleep." He began to raise his hands to deal the final blow to the girl. The Titans charged, Robin taking the lead. Grey simply leveled them with is hand. There was nothing they could do, they were completely at his mercy.
"Just tell me what you want," Robin pleaded, "I'll do anything, just don't kill her."
"The only thing you can give me, is your pain," came Grey's cold reply.
Something about the scene and the dialogue had struck a chord in Grey. He had almost faltered in his last sentence, and Raven was beginning to pick up faint traces of a memory playing over and over again in Grey's head. She began to see how she could use this to her advantage. She quickly morphed the dirt and rocks in what she saw in Grey's memory.
"Wha- What's happening," Grey said as he saw the scene materialize around him.
Beast Boy took his chance, transformed into a mole, and dug his way over to Starfire, making a tunnel large enough to drag her through while Grey was distracted. Grey, however, had become far more than distracted. The memories he was beginning to have were too much for him. He began to tear at everything with his powers.
"Get out of here," Raven said to Robin, "I'll keep him busy while you and Cyborg get Starfire."
Grey ripped at the scene, the tower, the ground, at Raven, and through the air. The destruction multiplying with each swipe.
"Nooooo," he'd begun to scream.
Raven saw that there was nothing she could do to stem his rage, so she braced Titan's tower with her powers, preparing for the worst.
With one last primal scream, Grey's powers exploded across the Titan's tiny island, consuming everything. Cyborg, Raven, and Beast Boy watched, hoping that the Tower would survive. Starfire had begun to stir, and awoke to the sight of a crying Robin. Something in Robin had snapped. Something about Grey's words, and his plight, had left Robin unsettled, and he finally knew why. He loved Starfire, and he couldn't stand the thought of anything like what had happened to Grey and Sarah.
"Why are you crying Robin," Starfire asked dazedly.
"I'm just happy that you're still alive," Robin said as he hugged Starfire.
Raven and Beast Boy returned to the tower, hoping to be able to salvage something. However, nothing would need to be salvaged. It seemed as though the explosion had done no damage. All that was left was a twenty foot wide crater, with Grey curled up inside it. He was convulsing, and was a sickening shade of white. A strange hum filled the entire area, as the Jump city police hauled the boy off to prison.
