Terra's Return

Chapter Five: Trouble

It was three days since Terra had said Beast Boy's name. It would've been a good thing, except that she still didn't remember him. If so, why did she know it was him?

The answer came the next day. It turned out that the others had been teaching her all their names, and she was able to recognize any of them at anytime. This is was a big disappointment. At least 81 percent of her memory had been restored, but she still didn't remember any of them.

It was still unclear why Raven continued to help, even after the argument with Beast Boy, and by the plain fact that she never trusted Terra and never will. They were too busy to notice, with fighting crime and fixing Terra was their top priority.

Her memory was at about 87 percent maximum when the problems started.

Let's start from the beginning of that day when they had all woken up, eaten breakfast, and then went down to work on Terra again. She was still quite normal, though she hadn't acknowledged the fact of who she was, what she had done to them (In Beast Boy's opinion, that was a good thing.), and she had no way of using her powers. Plus, which shouldn't have to be told, her memory was not restored.

It was around 10:53, when the alarms went off, indicating that the city was in trouble. They left immediately, locking Terra in the basement so she couldn't escape.

Terra tried her best to get out of the basement, but they had locked it very well; it was Raven's powers responsible her the fail-safe trap.

Completely along, she decided to just wait until they came back, and then escape. Ever since they had revived her, she tried to do nothing else but try to get away from the horrid prison and experiments she was put under. She had no luck, therefore it would be awhile before they would let their guard down.

She started to wander around the huge basement, trying to find another way out. The air vents, maybe, if there were any.

The thing is that there were, and she had managed to pull them open without any trouble. She started to crawl in the moment the Titans came back down.

"Where is she?"

That's when they noticed the open air vent and banging noises. They all ran to the vent.

"Someone's gonna have to crawl in there and get her," Cyborg said.

At that, all eyes turned towards Beast Boy.

"Fine, I'll go," he said before morphing into a rat and scurrying through the vent.

"Do you know where the vent ends?" Robin asked.

"There all end out of the Tower," Cyborg said.

"What about this one? Where does it end exactly?"

He paused to think before answering.

"Since we always experiment down here, the vents lead all the way to the junkyard."

How convenient. All the vents end near here, and this one just coincidently lead outside the city.

"Well, we'll get to the junkyard while Beast Boy goes after her."

They headed outside to cut her off.

Meanwhile, Beast Boy was still scurrying through the vents, running as fast as his tiny rat legs would take him. How far had she gone in the last five minutes?

Then, he finally saw her. She was just ten feet away. Immediately, he morphed back into his normal self.

"Terra!"

She turned around quickly. For a moment he thought she would come to him, but she only started to crawl faster.

He morphed back, catching up with her, and morphed again. He started to grab her arm.

"Terra, would you-"

He couldn't finish his sentence. She had hit him with her elbow, sending him farther back in the vent tunnel.

The end of it was finally near, as light shone through several slides.

She opened it and ran out. She was free finally!

Her freedom lasted for about nine seconds before the Titans recaptured her. Raven had put her in another dark bubble.

Once Beast Boy came out to see they got her, and sighed in relief.

That was a close on.

Now that they knew the dangers of letting her free roam the basement for new exits, they decided to keep her in the cage until she was cured.

It was on this day that regained memory of her powers.

This made an easy escape, since she was in the basement, she could just move the rock from under the tiles and use them to break the lock. After this, she got out, ran up the stairs to the basement and opened it. Apparently, seeing that there was no threat if Terra was in the locked cage, they left it open.

It was an easy escape. She was all by herself and no one would be able to stop her. She would be free at last. Free from experiments, free from the horrible prison, free from those fools they called her "friends". Nothing could stop her. Except for one unexpected thing.

As she walked through the common room, she heard someone's voice. It was a voice that she was unfamiliar with. No at all the voice of the Titans. It was more of a dark, computerized voice.

"Terra, Terra," it kept repeating.

She looked around and saw nothing. Every time she heard the voice in place, it would move. It was like this for about one minute before she saw someone. It wasn't the Titans of course. It was much worse.

At sight of the person, she begin to get a migrain. There was a very sharp pain in her head every time she looked at the person. She fell on the floor and began shake viciously. The pain had become too much for her.

Finally, the Titans came back, and saw her vibrating on the ground. Beast Boy ran over to her, trying to calm her down, but it didn't work. The pain had already taken over her.

Suddenly, without warning, she stopped vibrating. She wasn't even moving anymore.

What just happened? Beast Boy thought to himself.

Finally, after like two weeks probably, I have updated. And after some thinking I found this similar to the movie Godsend. You probably didn't notice because you haven't seen the movie. But still, send your reviews. Sorry again, because my other story is taking place, and since it's a humor fic, it takes up a lot of your time. Thanks!
