AN: Ok, this is still short, but do I care? No! Why? Because the next chapter is too long for my tiny brain to handle! Other than that…. Apparently Cyborg is my lesbian lover, sorry Raven :P (and thanks a lot Ashlee for confusing me! I have a male lesbian lover now!)

Heart of Stone: Chapter II

Beastboy stirred, hissing in pain as he did so.

"I would lie down if I were you, you're still not completely healed," said a calm voice. He looked up and saw a girl with black hair with red streaks pulled back into a ponytail and garnet red eyes. She was wearing a headband with a symbol of healing stitched into it, a black collar attached to a black cape, a black skirt and lace-up top, black boots, black wrist bands and a belt with a knife attached to it.

"Wai- wha- where- who- why am I not dead? Who the hell are you?"

"The name's Garnet, and you were," the girl said nonchalantly as she placed a hand over his wounds, healing them.

"What! I'm just confused now," he said with a goofy look on his face. "Say, how long was I out for?" he asked.

"About twenty minutes."

"Whoa, I was expecting to hear somewhere between 6 months and 30 years!"

The girl laughed, but then looked at him sternly. "I was there, saw the whole thing, and it didn't look like an accident. Why did you do it?"

Beastboy, deciding to ignore the question, asked her, "What else can you heal?"

"All but stupidity and broken hearts," she responded, smiling at him kindly.

"Really? What about…" he trailed off as he began to think about Terra again. "Can you heal someone who has been turned to stone?"

"Hmmm… well, I've never encountered it, but I can always try."

"Really!" exclaimed Beastboy excitedly. "Come on!"

"Huh? Wha? Bu? I never agree! What the hell…." She complied and followed him out of the building that Beastboy was assuming was an apartment building.

"Get on my back," he ordered as he transformed into a cheetah. Garnet did as he said, hanging on tightly as he dashed into the direction of Terra's resting place.

The others were out searching for Beast Boy. Starfire and Robin were asking people for anything that may help their search.

"Excuse me, sir. Have you seen any green animals recently?" Starfire asked a middle aged man.

"Yeah, I saw a dog earlier, now that you mention it."

"Really? Where?" Robin inquired anxiously.

"A couple streets over, about half an hour ago, hit by a car in front of the book store."

"Thanks a lot!" Starfire said quickly, already flying off in that direction, Robin running behind her.

They reached the location yelling, "Beast Boy!" but saw no trace of him.

"He's probably ok, that man must've been mistaken," Robin said to Starfire in attempt to comfort her.

"Yes, but where can our friend be?" she asked no one in particular.

Garnet and Beast Boy were standing in front of Terra's stone form. Beast Boy was looking up at her hopefully, but Garnet was looking at the plaque.

TERRA

A TEEN TITAN

A TRUE FRIEND

So they're Titans, are they? Garnet thought as she got an idea.

"Umm.. Listen, healing uses up a lot of energy. This time it'll cost you a small fee: your soul."

Shocked, Beast Boy went silent. With his soul, he would be her slave practically. "Deal… I'll do anything to have her back."

Garnet placed a hand on Terra and they were surrounded by a blue light. Slowly, starting at where Garnet's hand was, stone began to turn to flesh. Finally, Terra was back to normal.

The small girl's form collapsed, but Beast Boy caught her. Terra looked up at him, smiling.

"Beast Boy!" she shouted happily, but before she realized it, she was consumed into a hug.

"Terra! You can't even begin to imagine how much I missed you."

"Sorry to break this up, but our deal?" came Garnet's voice from behind him. Beast Boy stood up and nodded.

"What is she talking about?" Terra asked, but he didn't respond.

Garnet placed a hand on his forehead, although nothing appeared to happen. As she left, she said, "Until we meet again." Then too quietly to be heard, "which won't be too long."

AN: Well, what do you think so far?
