CHAPTER 7: Kill Me Now!

They followed Cyborg downstairs to the living room. The only sound in the tower that could possibly be heard were whispers from downstairs and the pitter patter of rain. Cyborg happily trotted through out the tower. Movie nights always got him so excited. Normally Beast Boy would be on the same boat with him. But tonight he was just somber.

'This is serious, Terra saw Slade? Maybe it was just a side affect…yah, it must have been, and I mean…She just having issues with her past. I think a movie night might cheer her up.' Beast Boy thought to himself.

Terra felt lost again. She was lost in great turmoil. Why was she seeing Slade? Why did they bring her back into the snake pitted world? Why was Beast Boy being so nice to her? And why was Raven in her room? All of these thought flushed through her head.

Terra jumped out of thought and realized that they were on the 2nd floor. They all had stayed silent for 7 floors, which kind of concerned her. So she thought she'd ask a question.

"So…where's Robin & Starfire? She asked sounding casual.

Every one snapped out of their trance and smiled at her question (Except Raven).

"You mean Romeo & Juliet? Oh…there downstairs, cuddling up some where." Cyborg answered.

"Yah, ever since they hooked up, Rob and Star have been inseparable." Beast Boy claimed.

"It took them forever…but they got together. Raven added.

"Finally!" Terra muttered to herself

Every one slightly giggled (once again except Raven).

Raven thought to herself. 'She's taking my place…Every one likes her better. Does that make me a bird that was shot down and was forgotten?' The painful thought haunted her, like a horror movie. She could think of several reasons why they would like Terra better. And this was the list of the following

Terra isn't creepy

Terra doesn't have to meditate

Terra is more energetic

Terra is more fun.

People love her personality.

she's pretty

She gets along better with people

And she's not the daughter of a demon

That was the end of her list. She kept thinking about it over and over again. But when they reached the living room, she lost track of thought.

"OH! Ya'll check it out, look who's on the sofa! Cyborg pointed out.

Robin and Starfire both sat on the sofa talking, just about normal things. They noticed Robin slowly inching his arm around her (like the guys in the theaters do when on a date), but the continued talking.

"Ooo, this is too good to pass up!" Cyborg said while pulling out his video camera.

Raven had enough of his insolence. She walked over to him and ripped the camera off his shoulder.

"Give them some respect!" Raven ordered.

"No! That could sell millions on the world wide web!" Cyborg notified.

Raven didn't care; she didn't like her friends getting embarrassed.

The four teenagers approached the couple. Raven tapped Robin on to the shoulder and gave him the video camera.

Every body took a seat some where in the vacant room. Every thing was quiet…to quiet. Thankfully Cyborg pushed movie night into gear.

"Okay BB, It's your turn to pick the movie night flick. And please don't pick Shrek again; it gets pretty old after the millionth time! Cyborg stated.

"Hey, I am green, can you imagine how insecure it feels to be the only green guy in the world. I mean it's only natural for a guy to want to be with his own skin color." Beast Boy protested.

They stared blankly and impatiently at him. Cyborg's stare turned into a glare, which gave Beast Boy the signal to go get a movie, Sit his butt down in a chair, and watch the motion picture.

Beast Boy jetted up the stairs, but before he did he gave Terra an uncertain glance. He wasn't sure if she was ready to be alone with out him, after the whole Slade fiasco some thing would surely dig through to her skin, which would reach her heart and pierce it with its deadly poison. But he had no choice, he ran up the stairs hoping every thing was going to be okay.

Terra could feel the tension in the room. All of the eyes staring at her, making her feel smaller each time they blinked. It seemed as if that same black world that engulfed her was surrounding her again, to where she was lost with out a light to guide her. It felt like there was no love in the room and it felt like the world was dissolving before Terra Markov's eyes of blue. Her world was a bad one and she was happy to see it dissolve into microscopic particles. Ever since the Titans brought her back she just wanted her life to stop. She wanted to be free of her heavy burden. And she wanted to be loved again…By Beast Boy. She wanted a world full of people who love her for who she was and except her for her mistakes. Though she couldn't see it…Beast Boy was that person for her world.

Starfire and Robin would occasionally whisper to each other, which made Terra highly suspicious.

Raven glared at her with a bitter hatred, which could hurt even the evilest of villain's feelings. Her lavender eyes glowed like a wild fire in a forest. And the mark on her forehead seemed to brighten with anger and hurt.

Cyborg was mainly staring at all of them, watching the couple whisper, watching Raven glare at Terra. And he watched Terra slowly fade into a panicking state. It was mass chaos in the Titans Tower. He could tell that things were about to get ugly in the sombering room of silence.

Terra slowly got up out of her seat. But before she could take a step, Raven pushed her back down into her spot.

"Where do you think you're going?" She questioned.

Terra didn't answer. She was afraid to answer any thing could be used against her and it could lead to a fatal fate. Terra's expression looked helpless and scared. But she didn't want Raven to know that she was scared, because if Raven knew about Terra's fear it could possibly let her use it to her advantage.

Raven could sense her fear. She could here her screaming for mercy, but Raven didn't want to show mercy. Raven was ready to go full throttle.

Raven used her powers and lifted the coffee table and held it above Terra. Raven was ready to end both Terra's and her self's pain.

The coffee table was lunged at Terra. But as it inched closer, Terra jumped out of the chair and onto the floor. The table crashed down next to her. Now she laid on the floor, in what seemed much greater danger.

Raven saw the disadvantage that Terra had, she wouldn't be able to get up fast enough in order to dodge the next attack.

Raven lifted the chair in which Terra had sat in and aimed.

Terra had to think fast if she was going to escape this predicament. And as the chair started to fall, she had a plan. She rolled over across the floor, until she was out of target range. The chair had hit the floor missing Terra by 2ft.

MEANWHILE…

The green teen was in his room looking for a video, but he was disrupted, by a pandemonium downstairs. He knew what was happening and he had to stop it before it got far too out of hand. He forgot all about the movie and shot out of his room as a cheetah. Hoping that the one he loved was going to be alive by the time he got there.

LIVING ROOM…

Terra stood up and faced Raven. She had to let her fear drop, she had to be brave. Her emotions were about to come spilling out like a gasoline leek. And most of the emotions were tears. She screamed a scream of anger and sadness. She tried to summon her powers, but they didn't come. She didn't understand. Why weren't her powers coming to submission? She lost control…When she turned to stone; she had forgotten how to tame her power of earth.

"Looks like you're out of power." Raven pointed out.

Terra backed away and the half demon teen approached her. Raven was about to attack, but Cyborg jumped in and grabbed Raven and held her tight. Starfire and Robin were standing up and stood in attack mode.

It was as if a boxing match. Starfire and Robin were the referees, Cyborg was the police man, and Terra and Raven were the boxing contenders.

Raven struggled to break loose of Cyborg's tight grip. She some how kicked free from him and charged at Terra.

Terra couldn't move, all of this chaos had glued her to the floor. Every emotion inside of her was screaming 'Get out of the way. And her anger and depression was yelling and pleading 'Kill me now!' She didn't know what emotion to follow, so she was paralyzed.

Raven, decided not to use her own power, she wanted to use her fists this time. First it seemed that Raven had slipped, but it was apart of her plan. When she was on the floor, she swung her leg around and knocked Terra down by the ankles. Terra was now on the floor render less. Then Raven got up and kicked Terra in the side.

Terra was trying to hold in her screams of pain and emotion. She was holding it in, but it was still slipping away. Terra got up, and stood her ground. Her emotion was about to explode, with many colors.

Raven jolted towards her, her fist glowing with a black aurora, her fists balled tightly, and she was going to give it her all.

Terra waited for impact, knowing if she dodged it then it would come back to haunt her. The sharp pain of the burning fist nailed her in the shoulder. She felt not only the force of pain, but the force of tears now streaming out of her eyes.

"STOP!" Terra screamed. With that she did the only thing she could do, she ran. She ran to the front door, hoping to escape every thing in her life…Even Beast Boy.

Just as Terra ran out the door, Beast Boy came down the stairs and turned back into human form. He saw the blonde run out the door and he heard her piercing cry of halt. He glared at Raven knowing that she was behind Terra's freak out of madness. Then he ran to the front door hoping to catch up to Terra.

"TERRA, WAIT!" He yelled.

Terra kept on running even when he yelled to stop. She wanted to be with him, but she only caused him pain. She wanted so many things that she once had. But now she just wanted to get away from it all. She wanted to break free of her haunting memories. She wanted to escape from her lala land of terror. She wanted to escape the people who badly abused her. She just wanted to escape from life.

She ran outside in the pouring rain. Her clothes were drenched with water. Her hair was matted together. Her eyes filled with the fury of desperation. Her sobs got heavy at every step she took away from her old home. She wanted to leave behind her memories of the tower. But she could never forget.

Attempting to escape everything that caused her pain and turmoil, she tripped and felt flat on her face. But she didn't try to get up. She just wanted to lie there and die. She tightened her fists and sobbed even harder. The rain pounded onto her body. And it felt like it was washing her away.

Beast Boy ran in the rain and he saw Terra lying on the ground, which really concerned him. He ran as fast as he could. He ran to her side and kneeled down next to her. He could see her body trembling. He felt the erg to do some thing he would never do. He picked her up in his arms and hugged her tight.

She knew what he was doing, but she was blinded by tears of misunderstanding. She wanted to die, she didn't deserve life, she didn't deserve friends or family, and she didn't deserve Beast Boy.

Beast Boy held Terra close. He was here for her. He was listening to her sobs and then he heard her talking…talking of disbelief.

"Kill me…now…" Terra choked in between sobs.

Beast Boy practically went deaf at her words. Even in the loud booming storm he could see her tears and hear her heart.

"Just kill me now, Beast Boy. I don't want nor deserve to live, so…just kill me…" Terra sobbed again.

Beast Boy shook his head in tolerance. The beautiful girl…in his arms was crying because of life. Life scared her. She had nightmares every night about life. And it slowly drove her insane. She was so misunderstood and all she needed was someone to hug her when she was scared, someone to guide her, someone to catch her when she falls, and someone to love her despite mistakes. He was that someone. He loved her and he was every thing she needed right now.

He soon remembered the rain that dropped from the sky. He decided it would be better if they went inside and talked. He didn't want her getting sick.

So he got up with Terra in his arms and started back to the tower.


Hey ya'll so it's been really entertaining writing this story and I know some of you are hating me for making Raven and Terra fight, but it will get better. I can have them fighting forever. And i'm a little hyper today and I don't know why, maybe it's because it's my dog's birth day. He's 5 now. But any way plz R&R
