CHAPTER 6: Hallucinations
The rain pitter-pattered on the wind of titan's tower. The winds violently blew every thing in its path. The thunder rumbled through the sky. The lightning ripped the sky. And then the alarm rang through the tower, warning them that there was trouble afoot.
Beast Boy's eyes snapped open as the alarm sang it's song of danger. And the lightening sang along to its horrid tune. He sat up in bed and looked around for a little bit. He looked over at Terra who was just beginning to wake.
"What's going on?" She questioned.
There was trouble, but he didn't know what to do. The titan's wouldn't dare let Terra come and Beast Boy really didn't want her to come, since she was still incapacitated. She was going to have to stay at the tower…alone.
"Terra, there's trouble. You'll have to stay at the tower, okay?" Beast Boy informed.
Terra was about to answer, but before she could he was already out of the room. She hurried up and got up out of bed and raced off after him. She came into the hall way and ran her way to the stairs. But before she even set foot on that first step a memory flashed in her head "NEXT TIME USE YOUR FULLY FUNCTIONAL BRAIN TO GET DOWN STAIRS, like I don't know use the ELEVATOR!" That memory saved her from a replay of a painful experience. So she went over to the elevator. She pushed a series of buttons and the elevator towed her down to the first floor. She ran into the living room to find that they were already gone.
MEANWHILE…
All of the titans were riding in the T car and every thing was dead silent and the only thing that could be heard was rain.
Raven looked over at Beast Boy, who was dead quiet (which was pretty weird). She could tell what…or who he was thinking about and she didn't even have to read his mind to figure that out.
"Hey…you don't have to worry about her…she can take care of herself." Raven said with comfort, putting her hand on his shoulder.
This action made him shiver a little. Just a couple of hours ago they were at each others throats and now she was trying to help him? This really puzzled him. Maybe it was because he was her friend, but she pushed him around a little because of Terra. He shook the thought from his head.
Suddenly the car violently jerked forward as some thing had stopped them…It was cinderblock!
MEANWHILE…
Terra wandered around the tower trying to remember which way every thing was.
"Let's see… the gym, the evidence room, Cyborg's room, Slade…" Terra stopped dead in her tracks. She thought back on what she had just seen. Slade? It wasn't possible. Slade was dead. He couldn't be here. Terra looked back at door next to Cy's room… nothing.
She sighed with relief. It was just an illusion in her head. But when she turned around she ran into some thing…something hard and cold. She was afraid to look up, but when she did she saw a man, dressed in black with a Halloween like mask. His devilish eye was ten times more than Satan's. The man gave her nightmares and he paralyzed her in her tracks. This man…was Satan and his name…was Slade!
"Hello my dear…remember me?" Slade taunted.
MEANWHILE…
Beast Boy cringed in pain as he hit the ground with full force. That was the fourth time he had been thrown down like this. He had had enough of it. He morphed into a tyrannosaurus rex and charged. With muscular power her rammed cinder block hard, but apparently not hard enough. Because he got right back up again and jabbed Beast Boy hard in the scaly gut. When the rock fist hit him, spit came flying out of his mouth. And being the large creature he was the spit could weigh up to gallons.
Cyborg was trying to lay a sonic cannon on cinder block, but just as he was about to a large, heavy feeling rain drop hit him, causing him to fall back and missing his fire. But then he learned that it wasn't actually rain, it was slobber.
"EWW! Man, I thought it was raining out not drooling." Cyborg exclaimed.
Beast Boy hit the ground once again. His vision began to blur and his mouth tasted of blood. It was as it felt like his life was slipping away. But some how, he managed to get up, as if some strange force was pulling him up, pushing him to go on. He looked Mad., madder than the mad hatter. He turned into a cheetah and sprinted towards the giant rock man. He sped by so fast he could hear the wind whistle as he pasted. It whistled to him "Keep going and never give up! A girl needs help back at home and only you can help her. Now fight until the end." Was what the wind told him. He leaped up into the air and pulled a surprise. He turned into a mammoth and slammed the walking rock down to the ground.
MEANWHILE…
Terra ran frantically through the halls. Her breaths were short and rough. Her hair followed behind her head. Her pupils in her eyes were shrunk. Her face was pale with horror. Her heart raced with her…and won. Her adrenalin was stronger than ever and every thing in front of her was going blurry
She took a turn and leaned against a wall, attempting to catch her breath. Her head was throbbing and her side was screaming with an aching pain. The crazed lunatic was still after her. He was trying to make her miserable and take her away from here, take her away from Beast Boy.
She then felt some thing heavy and hateful on her shoulder and it wasn't her conscience. She had this eerie look in her eye, because she knew what was perched upon her shoulder. She slowly turned her head to her left to find a hand which was attached to a man of hate.
"My, my, it certainly has been a long time hasn't it, Terra Markov. It was just 2 years ago that you betrayed every living soul in this city. Are you ready to do that again?" Slade questioned.
"NO!" Terra screamed and with that she ran off some where else in the tower, hoping to escape the horrible nightmare that was Slade.
MEANWHILE…
Starfire threw Robin at cinder block, so he could assist BB in combat. Cyborg and Raven too joined in, but before they could get more violent. Beast Boy ended the battle. He turned into a triceratops and shoved cinder block off the edge of a near by cliff. BB turned back to human form and stood there for a minute. His eyes well concentrated, his hair matted against his forehead, and is clothes soaked from the rain.
"Are you okay, BB?" Cyborg asked in concern.
Beast Boy didn't answer.
"Let us go home now please?" Starfire suggested.
"Starfire's right we need to get back home, it's raining and Terra is still back at the tower." Robin reminded.
They all walked off to the T car, with very tired expressions. Beast Boy looked serious and he stayed that way through the whole ride home.
THE LAST MEANWHILE… (Sorry about all the meanwhile.)
Terra crawled on the floor of the second hall way. Pain became unbearable. And she felt like life was slipping through her fingers. She could taste blood in her mouth, but if she coughed nothing but spit would come out. Her power felt weak and her hope felt steep. Slade had gotten her. He got her long ago. He beat on her until her bruises became scares. She could barely keep her eyes open. She weakly lifted her head to find Slade in front of her. She could care less right now, she was on the verge of death and she didn't care if she died or not.
"Now dear child, you shall pay the ultimate price, for your tolerance of being my apprentice!" Slade boomed. He picked her up by the neck and threw her into the wall.
The jolt of pain rushed through her veins. And her world went pitch black! Complete darkness consumed her and loud commotion was heard outside of her one colored world. She was lost in her true dark world, f o escape and no return. She was suffering a slow and painful death, one that she never wished to experience. She heard a mighty roar outside her world. Then she thought that she saw a green blur approach her. But it was just a hallucination. It felt like an eternity in the dark. But then a light showed through her eyelids, which made her eyes snap open
"Are you okay, T?" The first person questioned. The first person was Beast Boy, who sat at the edge of her bed, right next to her.
"What…happened? Where's Slade?" She questioned. She sat up in bed to find it wasn't just BB in the room, but Raven as well. Raven stood in the dark corner of her room.
"Hallucinations." Beast Boy answered simply.
"What?" She asked.
"When we left you, you kind of went nuts and started to see Slade and feel him as well, which caused you to pass out." Raven answered blankly.
"Oh! Well that makes sense, but I thought I was dead?" Terra added
"Nope, old T can live through more than a couple of scrapes!" Beast Boy said with enthusiasm.
She couldn't believe it, she lived through it. And it was all a hallucination? How was it possible? She could fell it and every thing; she could feel life slipping away from her gloved hands. It just didn't make sense.
Suddenly Cyborg came crashing into the room with a big smile and a booming yell
"MOVIE NIGHT!"
Okay, im sry for all of the meanwhiles in that chapter, this story is about to reach it's climax, so prepare yourselves!
