Zantetzuken: Chaptire 1
Beast Boy was running through a field of tall grasses and flowers of all sorts. The bright sun painted the landscape in brilliant yellow light. The wind in his face, he felt the sight tinge of it cooling his green skin. As he ran in what seemed eternal paradise, he came across a figure with hair as golden as the stars in the heavens. Beast Boy approached the figure, and it turned around to show Beast Boy a girl of unequaled beauty. The girl, who eyed Beast Boy for a moment, suddenly showed a bright smile, which was perfection at its finest. Beast Boy, left there speechless for a moment, suddenly regained his voice.
"Hi," he said nervously, "I, I, I'm called Beast Boy."
"Hello there," said the girl, "names Terra, and I've lived here for as long as I've known."
"That must be wonderful!" said Beast Boy. "Can you show me around?"
"Sure," she said with a girlish giggle, "follow me."
Terra then ran with Beast Boy, showing him the various plants, animals, and other wildlife. They found a pond, and began to throw themselves in it, their inhibitions taken over by joy. The two spent the happiest moments of their lives together that day. At the end, the two new friends found themselves on top of a grassy loft, enjoying the last moments of the sun for the day.
Terra turned to Beast Boy, who was immediately glued to her eyes, in their entire brilliant blue.
"Beast Boy," she asked softly, "promise me, no matter what, that we can always be like this, together."
"Of course," he said, drawing closer, "I will never leave you. I will never give up. I will never forget." As he was about to reach her lips, two giant gauntlets arose from the ground, and grasped Terra. The two hands then raised her in the air, out of Beast Boy's reach. Beast Boy tried to transform to help her, but his powers didn't respond.
Beast Boy, at the shock of his powerlessness, found himself thinking the strangest things.
"It's just like then, I couldn't do anything then. I was completely useless, powers and all." He turned his eyes upward at the screams of Terra, who was slowly turning to stone. Before she was completely petrified, she spoke to Beast Boy her last words.
"You were the best friend I ever had..."
"TEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!" screamed a frantic Beast Boy, and jolted from his bed, onto his head on the floor of his room. Silent, he laid there, tears now flowing from his eyes. He glanced out the window; the pale moon shining the only light he felt was in his world right now. After a couple moments, Robin and Cyborg, who were the ones with the adjacent rooms, opened Beast Boy's door, to find their friend in his current condition.
"My man," said Cyborg, a hint of excitement in his voice, "you ok? I thought someone had busted into the tower again."
Beast Boy picked himself up and dusted himself off. "I'm ok," he said softly, "just, just a bad dream is all." After that, he exited the room.
"Beast Boy, where are you going at such a late hour?" asked the Boy Wonder.
"I'll be back soon, I just need some air," he said, and with that he went downstairs and exited the tower into the night.
It was an hour's journey to the center of Jump City. It was here where fate decided a sacrifice was needed for all to continue living in peace. Beast Boy walked a stone bridge to where this sacrifice took place. There, on a pedestal, was the girl in his dream. She stood there in time; a monument to all she gave so others could live. She was truly one of the Heavens. Beast Boy knelt there, saying a silent prayer for his lost companion.
No, companion was too weak a word. Terra was truly something special. When she first met him, it wasn't the usual display of disgust and fear he got from other girls. No, she laughed, she laughed at him cause she thought he was funny. It was then Beast Boy knew he wanted to go farther. That night at the carnival, he thought he would surely get to tell her. No, to show her how much he grew to care for her over the few months they had together. It was not to be, as Fate took her away once, and then forever when she sealed herself within the volcano.
"Terra," he said, "if you can hear me, wherever you are, I want you to know you have not left my mind for a second. I, I feel so useless the more I think about it. I was blessed and cursed at the same time the day I got my powers. My neighbors shunned me, and then I was given a new family: the Titans. But at the same time, the one I wanted to help more than anyone else I've met, was taken from me, and I was powerless to stop it. The Titans said we would look for a cure, but I can't wait any longer! I need to see you. I need to touch you," he walked up to the statue's face and touched her lips, "I need to show you. Terra, my mind is made up; I'm getting you out of there right now."
Sorry if that seems a little short, but I like to ease into a story. Anyways, heres the usual for the start of one of my stories.
