Although Raven was many, many yards from Terra's statue and her sisters, she was beginning to feel large amounts of heat flowing from the cave. She twirled to the others, "Do you feel that?"

"It's hot!" Beast Boy cried, yanking on the collar of his uniform. He couldn't imagine how the sisters could stand such heat; he was roasting and they stood so far away. He turned to Cyborg, "Cy', how hot is it in there?"

The robotic man clicked several buttons on his left arm before saying, "It's 112 degrees out here. My sensors can't tell how hot it is in there." He pushed another button, clearing the information away. "Probably about twenty plus degrees more in there." He cringed, how could they stand such heat? Could they stand such heat?

Time seemed to whistle past Beast Boy so incredibly fast he could hardly believe it was nearly twenty minutes when Cyborg said, "Sensors say it's normal temperature again."

"Really!" the shifter asked, trying to run in, but the robotic man, stopped him.

"Hold your horses, lover boy." Beast Boy stopped and waited while the others walked in. He wanted to run up and see if Terra was released, oh he wanted it so bad! Surprisingly the others were not as enthused. Unable to contain his glee, Beast Boy ran ahead to the statue...but it was no longer there.

Instead Terra half stood and half leaned against the wall. He gasped and tried to run toward her, but tripped. He looked down to see the three sisters lying unconscious on the ground. Fyra was the one he saw first. Deep bleeding cuts started at her fingers and pulled up her arms. The Aqua's skin was cracked and in looked like all of her fingers were painfully broken. The last was Skyla. The oldest was still conscious, but gasping loudly for breath she couldn't seem to grasp.

Raven and the other showed up and looked down at the sisters. "Are they dead?" Starfire asked quietly. Testing a pulse, Raven crouched down and placed her hands to Fyra's neck. Her flesh only touched Fyra for a second before she recoiled sharply.

"She's freezing!" Raven pointed out, again testing for a pulse. Luckily there was one, but it seemed like every degree of warmth had been sucked from her body. She turned to Aqua and looked upon her cracked skin. The water throughout her body had been dried up. "I get it," she said, looking at the others, "Their powers sucked everything out of them."

"Terra..." Beast Boy whispered, watched the girl collapse beside Skyla. Tears were streaming down her face and she ignored his words, and began to stroke her sister's hair, who's breath was still fast.

"Do you...forgive me, Sister?" she breathed, on the verge of passing out. "Can you forgive...me for what I...did?" The rest of the Teen Titans looked at each other; what had she done?

Skyla, who was still unable to speak, only slowly lifted a hand, wiping away the hair from the right side of Terra's hair for merely a second. That second, however, was all she needed to see that Terra's silver earring still hung in her ear.

She gave Terra a slim smile, saying through harsh whispers, "Now I...do..." she told her before laying back on the stone, falling into a torturous unconsciousness. Terra, who had gotten all the information she needed, also fell down beside her, dead to the rest of the world.

F-f-F

Beast Boy had taken on teradactle form and took off toward the tower, holding Terra's wrists tightly within his feet. Starfire had chosen to take young Aqua and flew off behind Beast Boy. Cyborg placed Skyla in the T-car and asked if Robin and Raven wanted to drive too, but they refused. Cyborg shrugged and took off after his two flying friends.

Raven had told the others she would care for Fyra, but still hadn't picked her up. Instead she bent down and pulled her orange hair from her right ear, examining the earring. The scene with Skyla and Terra kept playing over in her head. What had Terra done? And what was the significance of this earring? Robin had also thought something strange was going on and came over to kneel beside Raven. "What is it?" he asked as she ran her fingers over the small surface.

"Sterling silver," she commented, "Symbols of some kind over the whole surface...and no way to take it off." She looked up at him, her brow furrowing. "There's a cut in her ear and allows the earring to stay in the same place and only move a little. There's no clasp or anything, it looks as though it was melted on her ear." Robin leaned in closer to see if she was telling the truth. And she was.

"The only way she could have taken it off was to weld it...or cut her ear," she continued, looking at Fyra's hands, which had stopped bleeding, but still red with blood. She stood up and spoke, "Azarath Metrion Zinthos," bringing the unconscious Fyra into a black bubble to float beside her. "I don't like this, Robin. Something about this whole thing is wrong."

They walked out of the cave in silence for awhile and Robin tried to piece together the reason for the sisters' arrival. "Neither do I..." he told her in a whisper, but Raven still heard it.
