Okay, I'm SO happy that there are other T&BB fans! Yay! It's so great. And thanks for the reviews. Well, here's the next chapter!
Chapter 2: Jailbreak
Terra woke up on her jail bed the next day. Her cheeks were sticky from her tears. She had a pain in her side because the bed was old, shanty, and hard. She cried herself to sleep on her side so her side hurt. But that wasn't the pain she was feeling. She was feeling the pain of rejection. She was sure that Beastboy would forgive her and take her in, but he completely and totally rejected her. She was shot down and it hurt. She had come to know Beastboy as a funny, cute, kind, cool guy. But when she saw him before, he was completely different. He was angry. And he was angry with her.
Terra tried to get up, but she couldn't. All her pain was shooting up and down her body. More tears rolled down her cheeks. Suddenly, she heard someone speak to her.
"Aw, is little baby girl crying?" a big guy ask in a teasing voice. It was the man in the cell in front of her. Terra stayed silent.
"Oh, are you sad that your boyfriend dumped you?" another guy asked. Then, all of the people started making fun of her and teasing her. Terra stayed silent as more and more tears rolled down her cheeks. All of her pain came rushing back into her, plus more. Now, the pains of all of the mean jokes, cruel laughs, and mean guys teasing her were felt.
"Maybe your dumb little boyfriend dumped you when he found out what a crybaby you are!" another guy yelled. Then, Terra's eyes turned yellow. She stood up and looked at the people in the cells.
"THAT'S IT! JUST SHUT UP AND LEAVE ME ALONE, YOU JERKS!" Terra screamed in rage. All of the people's smirks disappeared. Suddenly, rocks flew up from the ground everywhere. Terra crouched down and held her head. No, I'm sure I learned to control my powers. I learned. Slade taught m-, Terra thought, but then stopped.
"Slade! You tricked me!" Terra yelled. The rocks started zooming up from the ground even faster. They broke most of the cell doors and broke through the walls and ceiling. Terra jumped on to a rock and flew away. She flew away from the jail. She went to a rocky valley nearby; the same place she had met Beastboy and the Titans. She landed and sat down in the very spot she had met them.
"They befriended me and I betrayed them for an evil man. He taught me how to control my powers – or so I thought. He claimed that he taught me, but he actually just gave me that suit. It gave him the power to control me. But then how did he control me when I wasn't wearing the suit? How did he control me while I was with the Titans? ... Well, it doesn't matter now. He lied to me and told me that I learned to control my powers, but it wasn't me controlling them. It was him. And when I took it off, I couldn't control my powers anymore. He couldn't control my powers anymore." Terra explained everything out in her mind.
"They befriended me and I betrayed them for someone who tricked me and lied to me. I can't believe this..." Terra thought. She looked at her hands. Then, she aimed them at a boulder that was in front of her. She tried to pick it up and it worked. She smiled. Then, the boulder broke and fell. Terra frowned.
"I can't do this by myself. I need help, but no one will help me anymore. I've betrayed everyone; the good and the bad. Both won't trust or believe me anymore. Not after what I did." Terra said in almost a whisper. She remembered every time her powers had gone crazy, and every time someone tried to help her. And she remembered how each time this happened, she would end up alone. She would end up hated by everyone. She would end up as an unwanted person.
She remembered when she met the Titans. She remembered how they all got along and had fun together. Then, she had run away because she thought Beastboy had lied to her. And while she was away, Slade got to her. He got to her and trained her.
"Why? Why did I agree to go with him?" Terra asked herself. But she knew why. It was because she was alone. No one took her in. No one, but Slade. She remembered training with him. But all that was really happening was her suit doing whatever Slade wanted. Then, she had to go back to the Titans Tower. She had to find out about all of their strengths, weaknesses, techniques, skills, flaws, security codes, and any other information she could get. She had to find out about it all and give it to Slade. Then, she remembered her last night as a Titan. The night she went out with Beastboy. He was her best friend and she let him down. She remembered the look on his face when she told him. She remembered the mixture of anger and sadness in his eyes.
Tears trickled down Terra's cheeks. It seemed like she had cried a lot since that day. Then her eyes turned yellow again. A boulder went flying at her. More boulders came zooming up and flew around. Terra tried to dodge, but pressure was building up inside her and she knew she was about to pop. She tried to calm down for her dear life. If she didn't, she would crush herself.
Terra tried to remember the good times; the happy times; the times when she and everyone hung out. She remembered when she shopped with Starfire, meditated with Raven, trained with Robin, played video games with Cyborg, and her most treasured times with Beastboy. She remembered when she went to Ben's (the diner) with him. And when they went to the amusement park. She remembered all the good times.
Terra finally calmed down. All of the rocks fell to the ground and Terra arranged them around to make something of a bed. It was hard, cold, and not comfy at all, but it was all she had. Terra lied down in it and tried to sleep.
Meanwhile, the Titans were at the tower. They were relaxing while they didn't have any crimes to take care of. Robin was training, Raven was meditating with Starfire, Cyborg was playing video games, and Beastboy was, well, he was just sitting around.
"Uh, Starfire, I'll be right back." Raven said, as she walked towards Beastboy. Starfire nodded.
"Okay." She said. Raven walked to Beastboy.
"Are you okay?" Raven asked.
"Yeah, I'm fine." Beastboy said, barely even looking at Raven.
"No you aren't. You haven't told a joke all day." Raven said. She wanted to make Beastboy smile, but he just turned his head away.
"Listen, I'm fine." Beastboy said again.
"You know, we didn't actually have that pizza we wanted yesterday." Raven said. Beastboy looked at her.
"Want to go?" Raven asked.
"You know what, Raven? No, I really don't. I just don't. I don't want to eat right now. Maybe I don't want to tell any jokes right now either. I just don't want to, so leave me alone!" Beastboy yelled. Raven was silent. She turned around and walked back to Starfire. She went into her meditating state and acted as if nothing had happened. Starfire knew she shouldn't ask.
Suddenly, the Titan alarm went off. Everyone got up and looked at the TV. There was a video showing rocks shooting out of the jail. Then, a girl flew out on a rock. It was Terra. Everyone was silent. Robin looked at Beastboy, then back at the TV.
"It's her. Titans, go!" Robin yelled. And they were off. They went to the jail. There were criminals running around everywhere. Terra was nowhere to be seen.
"Titans, collect all of the criminals. We'll go after Te-... her afterwards." Robin said, looking at Beastboy's depressed face.
"It's okay. She's a criminal now. She's just like any other bad guy." Beastboy said. With not another word, the Titans went to collect all of the crooks that broke out of the jail. They rounded them all up.
"That's all of them." Cyborg announced.
"Let's go after Terra now." Raven said in a harsh tone, not even caring about Beastboy. Just hearing her name made him feel even worse.
"We'll split up. Cyborg, search the west side of town. Starfire, search the east. I'll go south. Raven, Beastboy, search the north." Robin commanded. Everyone went to search their side of the town.
Raven and Beastboy were up by the valley. They weren't speaking to each other. They were just searching. Suddenly, they saw her. She was sitting on a pile of rocks. Her cheeks were wet with tears.
"Terra?" Beastboy asked. Terra looked at them.
"Beastboy? Raven?" Terra asked. She tried to fly on a rock, but it fell to the ground before she could get on it. Her powers were getting worse by the minute. Raven tied her in a black, telekinetic hold. Terra tried to get away, but she was too afraid to loose control of her powers.
"Please, let me go." Terra pleaded.
"No. You let everyone out of the jail. You're a criminal and always will be." Raven said. Terra shook her head.
"No! I, I didn't mean to! I lost control of my powers and it just... it went crazy. I didn't mean to!" Terra explained, but they didn't believe her.
"We know you have full control of your powers." Beastboy said. Terra shook her head.
"No! Slade was controlling me to control my powers. Trust me!" Terra yelled. Beastboy didn't reply. He walked towards her.
"Don't go too close to her! She might be tricking us again!" Raven warned, but Beastboy didn't listen to her. He stood in front of Terra.
"Are you telling the truth?" Beastboy asked.
"Of-course, she isn't!" Raven yelled.
"I didn't ask you!" Beastboy yelled, looking at Raven. He turned back to Terra.
"Is it true?" Beastboy asked.
"Yes! I don't work for Slade anymore!" Terra said.
"I don't trust her." Raven said again.
"Let's ask the others. Let's see what they think." Beastboy said, looking back at Raven.
"Fine!" Raven yelled. She kept holding Terra in her telekinetic hold and flew up. Beastboy turned into a bird and flew up. They gathered the rest of the Titans on the roof of the Titan Tower.
"You found her!" Starfire yelled.
"Yeah, but listen to what she has to say." Beastboy said. He looked at Terra, indicating her to talk.
"I don't work for Slade anymore. I don't. I broke away from him and I have no intensions of betraying you again. I'm sorry. I was alone and confused so I went with him. But I got away from him. Please, I want your trust back. I want your friendship back. Please. I need your help." Terra pleaded.
"So you don't work for Slade anymore?" Robin asked.
"No! I don't." Terra yelled.
"I don't know." Cyborg commented.
"I don't trust her." Raven said.
"Please. I'm sorry for what I did before." Terra pleaded.
"She sounds like she is telling the truth. Maybe we should trust her. Maybe we can believe her." Starfire said. Raven shook her head, furiously.
"She sounded like she was telling the truth before, but she wasn't! I don't trust her!" Raven said, harshly. There was a very long silence.
"I hate to admit it, but Raven's right. We can't trust her. At least, not yet." Robin said, breaking the silence. Terra looked down sadly.
"Maybe she is telling the truth." Beastboy said, sticking up for Terra.
"She just let everyone in jail run free! She's just as evil as ever. This is probably part of Slade's plan!" Raven yelled.
"No! I'm not with Slade anymore!" Terra said.
"Then why did you start that jailbreak?" Robin asked.
"I-I didn't mean to. It was an accident. I told you before, I can't control my powers anymore!" Terra yelled.
"You can't?" Cyborg asked.
"No, I can't. Slade was controlling my powers with a suit. It wasn't me. Then, I took it off and I lost control." Terra explained.
"No! She's lying!" Raven yelled.
"Calm down, Raven! You don't have to be so hard on her! Put her down!" Beastboy yelled.
"No! She'll just run off!" Raven yelled.
"Just put her down, Raven." Robin said to Raven.
"No! You don't understand!" Raven yelled, as her eyes glowed. Her hold tightened on Terra.
"Raven, I'm sorry. I am." Terra yelled, as she felt herself being squished very slowly.
"You heard the girl! Just put her down." Cyborg said.
"No! You don't get it!" Raven yelled, as she began to lose her temper.
"I'm sorry! I am!" Terra yelled, as Raven tightened her hold. It started to hurt Terra.
"What did she do that was so horrible?" Starfire asked. The suddenly, Raven stopped. She put Terra down and let go of her telekinetic hold. She turned around and took a few steps forward.
"She betrayed us." Raven said, calmly, but still very angry. Everyone was silent.
"I'm sorry, Raven. I really really am! I don't what else to say." Terra tried to apologize again. Raven didn't say anything.
"Rae, she apologized. Let it go." Cyborg said. Raven turned around.
"Whatever. I don't care." Raven answered. Terra smiled. Then she turned to Robin.
"So you'll forgive me?" Terra asked.
"I never said that." Robin said, trying his best not to sound mean. Raven smirked. Terra looked down.
After all that, they still didn't trust her. She wasn't even sure if they would ever trust her again. Raven, of-course, hated her. They were best friends and she let her down. Robin also wasn't sure about trusting her. None of them were. Terra sighed.
"I won't do it again. I won't. I left Slade and I never want to go back. I'll do everything in my power to undo my wrongs. I'm sorry." Terra said in almost a whisper.
"I want to believe you, but something tells me that you're up to something." Robin responded. Terra was in shock. She stepped back a bit.
"What?" she asked, hoping that she had heard wrong. But she heard it correctly.
"We are very sorry. But we..." Starfire started, but then looked at Terra's rejected face. She couldn't bear to finish her sentence.
"What she means, is that we can't just trust you without proof." Cyborg said. Terra stepped back even more. Raven smirked again. Beastboy tried to walk towards Terra, but she kept moving away. Then, with a tear falling down her cheek, Terra's eyes began to glow. Rocks started flying everywhere. Some of them almost hit the Titans. Terra stepped back even more. She was at the end of the roof and was about to fall.
"Aaaaaaaahh-" Terra yelled when she was about to fall. Then, Beastboy grabbed her hand. Terra wanted to hug him, but she hit his hand away and fell into the water.
"Terra!" Beastboy yelled. He was about to jump in when Raven stopped him with her telekinetic hold. Beastboy turned around.
"I have to save her!" he yelled.
"She was lying! She just attacked us if you haven't noticed!" Raven yelled. Suddenly, a rock flew into her and she let go of Beastboy. He jumped into the water as a fish.
"Raven! Are you okay?" Cyborg asked, helping her up.
"I'm fine!" she yelled, slapping his hand away. She started sending other boulders that were going to hit her, away. One was about to hit her again, but Cyborg blasted it away.
"I don't need your help!" Raven said as she sent other rocks away. Another one was about to hit her and Cyborg blasted it away.
"Yeah you do!" Cyborg yelled. He kept helping Raven out.
Meanwhile, Beastboy was searching for Terra. He finally found her and brought her to land. He put his ear to her chest to see if she was still breathing. I have to open the airway, but I-I-I...oh all right! Beastboy thought. He slowly put his mouth on hers and began to breathe in. Suddenly, she opened her eyes. She pushed him away.
"Terra! You're alive!" Beastboy yelled. Terra looked at him and sent a rock flying at him. She got up and tried to jump on a rock. She was about to fall off, but she grabbed the edge. She flew away like that.
"Terra... she attacked me..." Beastboy said, in almost a whisper as Terra flew away.
