AN: Hello, my beautiful readers! I am back with another Teen Titans story. As you could have probably guessed from the title, this is a retelling of the movie Teen Titans Go vs Teen Titans.

Now, I'm going to be honest with you; I didn't like the movie. From clunky pacing to weak characterization, it only seemed to ruin the good ideas it had going for it (seriously, the Unkindness is like the coolest thing ever). Now, I will be telling this story StarlitDuck style. Now, I can't guarantee that it will be an improvement, but I will do my best.

Also, one last thing. To differentiate between the different versions of the Titans, I will be putting the names of the Go Titans in bold, just like I did with Multidimensional Love.

Anyway, on with the show! :)

Chapter 1 Alternate

Being half demon, Raven was no stranger to nightmares. The tantalizing and horrifying visions she would receive during the night hours often left her waking up in a freezing sweat. This happened so commonly that she had formed a habit that would help her with the aftermath of the dream; that being, she would get out of bed, put on her cloak, and start meditating on the floor. Meditating was the perfect way for her to deal with her thoughts. While meditating, she could put all of her feelings in a box and store them away for later.

And that was exactly what she was doing right now. Meditating, allowing the air to wash over her body as she kept her legs crossed and her eyes closed. She felt safe while meditating, she felt at peace. When meditating, she could deal with the horrors that scampered around in her head. She could tame them, to an extent. She could...understand them.

Raven grit her teeth at that thought. She didn't want to understand her dark side. It was...it terrified her. And the thought of actually exploring it terrified her even more.

"Azarath Metrion Zinthos," Raven uttered. She so rarely said her signature catchphrase now that it felt awkward on her tongue. Regardless, there was still a soothing quality to the words. It was like peppermint oil, or perhaps lotion, which was so smoothly lathered across the skin. "Azarath Metrion Zinthos."

Her demonic powers were in check, at least for now. She could relax, get up, and go out into the main room. That was what she did after meditating, regardless of what time it actually was. Raven picked herself up and floated out of her room.

It was dark, as it so often was. The moon shined through the glass of the tower, illuminating her surroundings. However, the moon was actually pretty low in the sky. Which made sense, as on the other side of the horizon, Raven could see a faint, yellow glow. The sun was staring to come up, and another day was just getting started for better or for ill. A new day meant new potential for crime, which meant Raven would have to get off her butt and fight it.

She hated fighting crime. She'd much rather goof off with the other Titans.

Speaking of the other Titans, Beast Boy was surprisingly awake. He kept his eyes focused out the window, directed up toward the glowing moon. Raven floated up to him, curiosity taking hold of her.

"Why are you up so early?" Beast Boy jumped back a little bit out of fright. Raven put her hand on his shoulder to reassure him. "I'm sorry I scared you."

"Nos nos, it be okay." Raven chuckled at his improper grammar. She had tried countless times to straighten his speaking patterns out, but he always seemed to fall back onto bad habits. It was comical; that's what it was.

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah." Beast Boy smiled and gently put his hand on hers. "If it's by you, I don't minds being scared."

Raven's eyes grew wide. She instantly backed away. "Woah woah, okay," she said. "Reel back on the love talk, BB."

Beast Boy blinked before looking back out the window with a downcast expression. "I's sorry. I just…"

"We've already tried dating once," Raven said. She narrowed her eyes at him. "And you fiddled things up."

"Yeah," Beast Boy said with a sigh. He chuckled. "That seems to be my specialty."

Raven crossed her arms. "It isn't a very good specialty."

Beast Boy's ears drooped. "You know, I wouldn't be opposed to giving this dating thingy another chance. I've changed, after all. I've matured."

Raven rolled her eyes. "You've matured like a rotten egg."

"But at least I've matured." He tried to wrap his arms around her, but she backed away. He sighed, finally admitting defeat. "Alrights, alrights. If yous don't wants to date, I can't force you."

"Thank you."

So, the two friends (friends and nothing more) stared up at the moon as it sank below the horizon line. Raven would certainly miss the full moon; it wouldn't look that beautiful for another month. There was something so special about the full moon to her.

"Raven?"

Raven cast a glance over to her green skinned friend. "What?"

"Do you believe in alternate universes?"

Raven blinked before snickering. "That's a random question."

"I knows. But I've been thinking about it a lot recently. I means...what if there were more Teen Titans? Like, what if there was another me running around somewhere, or another you?"

Raven couldn't help but snicker at that. "That's a pretty scary thought, all things considered."

Beast Boy cast her a glare. "It ain't scary! It's cool!" He smiled. "Just imagine if there was a Beast Boy out there who was a merman, or a magician, or a lamp!"

Raven raised an eyebrow. "A lamp?"

Beast Boy shrank back in embarrassment. "I don't know whys I said lamp. It's just the first thing that popped in my head." He chuckled. "Or, I guess, the third."

"Mmhm." Raven looked back out the window. "Actually, it is kind of funny that you mention alternate universes." She cleared her throat. "I actually had a dream about one."

Beast Boy blinked. "Really?"

"Yep. There were...other Titans. Other versions of the Titans. They were..taller. They were...cool."

Beast Boy smiled. "Seems like a pretty cool dream to has."

"It...it actually wasn't." When Beast Boy raised an eyebrow, she put her hand on the glass. "They...these Titans...they hated us. They thought that we were incompetent."

"Well, aren't we?"

Raven glared at him. "That's beside the point." She looked back out the window. "They fought us, and we lost. They said that we didn't deserve to be Titans."

Beast Boy chuckled. "Of course we deserve to be Titans! That's why we are Titans!" He got in closer to the shadowy sorceress. "Besides, if they are as cool as you say they are, then they should know that saying stuff like that most certainly is not cool. They would never make fun of us like that."

Raven sighed. "I guess you're right."

Beast Boy grinned and looked back outside, where the sky was starting to turn cyan. Raven bit the inside of her cheek before speaking again.

"And...that's not all." Beast Boy cast her a raised eyebrow, prompting her to continue. "That wasn't the part of the nightmare that truly terrified me. That part was...well, the part where I had been consumed by my demon half."

Beast Boy gasped. "What?"

"Yeah. In that part, I almost killed everyone, including those versions of the Titans." Raven shivered That was what haunted her. That was what caused her to quake in her boots. While the part where the alternate Titans wasn't likely to happen, the part where she could become a full blown demon and destroy everything that she came across definitely could. She didn't want to be a monster. She put her hand on the gem in the middle of her forehead, just to reassure herself. Reassure herself that she wouldn't become a monster. Reassure herself that she was safe from her dark side. "I don't want that to happen."

"It won't." Beast Boy put his hand on her shoulder. "You's got nothing to worry about, Rae Rae. Not while I'm here."

Raven blushed. Despite them being officially broken up, Beast Boy still insisted on calling her by the nickname he had personally crafted for her. It made her heart flutter more often than she was willing to admit.

"Thank you."

Beast Boy smiled in a way that actually did make him look mature. Grown up in a way, different. It was a difference that she wasn't used to, but one that she definitely could learn to appreciate. Honestly, she liked this side of Beast Boy. She just wished that he had shown it more while they were dating as opposed to embracing his greedy, immature nature.

Remembering this was what caused her to pull away. "I...appreciate it."

Beast Boy's face fell a little. Before he could say anymore and cement his place as someone worth dating, a blazing alarm went off. Red lights flashed throughout the tower, causing Raven's heart to pump like mad.

"Crime alert," she said. She turned toward Beast Boy. "Go get the others."

Beast Boy nodded and made his way toward the bedroom hallway. Meanwhile, Raven looked at the screen. She saw a ghostly figure. It did not have a body that was visible, but it did have clothes that were. It floated throughout Jump City, causing some of the citizens to shriek in terror at the sight of it.

"Gentleman Ghost," said Raven. She groaned. "Well, isn't this just my lucky day."

AN: So, the first chapter of this story more or less serves as a prologue to the actual story. I added it to provide more concrete characterization to both Raven and Beast Boy, as well as help their interactions throughout the movie feel more organic. As you saw, I also made Raven aware of the spell placed on her gem. I'll explain why I did that when I get to the chapter where she talks with Trigon.

Well, that's it for chapter 1. Chapter 2 will be posted soon enough. Please read, review, and have a lovely day! :)
