Lost Inside
Chapter Seven: One huge step back
By Everclueless
Author's Note: Okay, people. If you're wondering why I seem to not know any names of pizzas, it is because I hate pizza and ever since I first tasted it and hated it I have refused to go even four metres near a pizza place.
Also, I'm not good at writing up any…battles…
And Mystery Person?
MP: Yes?
You can't kill me
MP: What makes you think that?
I'm already dead.
MP: …
You can go away now.
MP: You can't tell me what to do.
Oh can't I? I am the author. You're just a figment of my imagination that I've put on paper.
MP: Shut up! Shut up! SHUT UP!
Whatever… mutters… loser…
(()) Story (())
Cyborg yawned, stretching. He creeped quietly through the corridors and entered the main room. He was relieved to find Beast Boy was not awake – he wanted REAL meat today.
He opened the refrigerator to find it empty. Cyborg fully woke up. His eyes widened.
He lifted up the fridge and tipped it upside down, shaking it as if something would fall out.
He didn't care about Beast Boy getting to cook today anymore.
"WHERE'S MY MEAT! WHERE'S MY STEAK? WHERE'S MY RIBS! I'LL KILL WHOEVER TOOK MY MEAT! GAH!" Cyborg quickly raised the fridge threw it behind him.
There was a crashing sound.
"…Ow" a voice cried out in pain.
Cyborg turned around with bloodshot eyes and saw…Stephanie being somewhat squished by the refrigerator.
Stephanie stared at the crazy looking Cyborg.
"Um…a little…help please? Refrigerator equals heavy" Stephanie groaned.
Cyborg calmed down enough to get the fridge off Stephanie.
After a short period of silence Stephanie piped up.
"Um…just wondering…what's wrong with you? I mean, what's wrong?" she asked.
"The fridge is empty…" Cyborg muttered.
"The fridge is empty? The fridge is empty? THE FRIDGE IS EMPTY! YOU THREW A FRIDGE ON ME BECAUSE IT WAS EMPTY!"
Cyborg stood on the spot, frightened beyond words. After a few minutes, he recovered and retorted.
"FOOD IS A NECESSITY! IT'S MUCH MORE IMPORTANT THAN WHETHER YOU LIVE OR DIE!"
"THAT'S REALLY KIND! GET YOUR PRIORITIES RIGHT YOU F'ING LOSER! AND DID YOU EVER THINK ONCE THAT IT IS POSSIBLE THAT IF YOU HAD BOUGHT MORE AT THE SUPERMARKET THE OTHER DAY, THEN THERE WOULD STILL BE FOOD YOU JACK A--! "
Beast Boy, Raven and Robin watched on the sidelines.
"Do you think we should interfere?" Raven asked.
"Nah, this is too amusing" Beast Boy and Robin said in unison.
"Typical boys." Raven grumbled.
"What was that?" Beast Boy turned.
"Nothing" Raven muttered, angrily.
"Is everything alright?"
"Yes"
"You sound like you want to kill someone right now. Are you about to kill someone?"
"Maybe" Raven murmured, walking over to Cyborg and Stephanie.
"Guys. SHUT UP!" Raven screamed, breaking three light bulbs.
Raven calmed down and the two fell silent.
"Why don't we all just go out for pizza for breakfast. Afterwards we can buy more food for the fridge"
"Sounds good to me" Beast Boy called out.
"Pizza? For breakfast? That sounds a bit…..odd….." Robin said.
"What's wrong with having pizza for breakfast dawg? Cyborg asked.
"It seems more like a meal for lunch or dinner to me…" Robin murmured, "Besides, would the Pizza place even be open this early?"
"It's open twenty four hours a day, c'mon let's go!" Cyborg said.
The titans started to walk down the stairs to the T-car.
"Um…" Raven started, "What about Star?"
$$ PIZZA PLACE $$
"And your order is?" the serving lady asked.
"The most vegan-like pizza of course" Beast Boy said in a fake posh voice.
"Ignore him" Cyborg said, "We want the one with most meat toppings."
"My friends are being silly. Friend Cyborg and Friend Beast Boy and I all really want a pizza with the topping of mint frosting!"
Robin leaned back in his chair.
"Does this happen every time you guys go to the pizza place?" Stephanie asked him.
"Yeah, pretty much"
Stephanie watched the three titans; and saw the serving lady back away and run to take another table's order.
She chuckled lightly.
Robin slouched and leaned on his elbow.
"Guess we won't be having breakfast anytime soon" he sighed.
Robin quickly straightened up.
"Something wrong?" Raven asked.
"I think I heard something"
"Relax. I'm sure you're just being paranoid." Raven told him.
Robin turned to Stephanie, to see that she was gone.
"Hey where'd she go? Raven do you know where -" Robin turned around and saw Raven's seat empty, too.
He saw that the three arguing titans were still arguing.
"GUYS!" Robin got their attention "Did any of you see where Raven and Stephanie went?"
"Nope, sorry man" Robin turned to Starfire.
"Sorry, friend Robin, but I saw nothing" Robin turned to Beast Boy, to find he was gone.
"Beast Boy?"
He turned back and Cyborg and Starfire were gone too.
"What's going on!" Robin yelled.
He was suddenly yanked from behind and quickly tossed onto the street.
Robin landed face first.
He stood up fast and brushed himself off, recovering.
Looking around, he saw his friends in combat with some guys that were fully dressed in black. There was a small strip cut off of their material black masks, revealing their eyes.
Each had a sword or a sharp knife.
Robin could see Raven fighting three, Beast Boy fighting two, Starfire fighting three, Cyborg fighting four, and in the distance, he could see Stephanie trying to fight one of the assassins with…a softball bat. She was failing miserably.
Suddenly, Robin went flying into a brick wall. He held his throbbing head and turned around to see an assassin.
Pulling out his Bo staff, he charged at the assassin and began battle.
"Azarath Metrion Zinthos!" Raven chanted, blasting one of her assassins.
It flew through a building's window and she telepathically moved its body out of the building. The assassin lay on the ground groaning, half of its clothing torn.
An assassin swiftly sneaked up on Raven and attempted stabbing her. Raven managed to turn and block the attack.
Angrily, she lifted him up with her powers and threw him into a building.
She eyed the last assassin shaking in fear. She quickly sent him flying.
Starfire threw Starbolts at her foes. They managed to keep one down.
The other two kept chasing after her and trying to stab her.
Starfire flew up into the sky where they couldn't reach her.
She rapidly shot the remaining assassins with her eyebeams, but it didn't seem to affect them at all because of their clothing.
An idea came to her.
Starfire shot the assassins with her eyebeams again; except this time, she aimed for their eyes.
As the attack reached its target, the two assassins screamed and dropped onto the ground; clutching their eyes in pain.
Beast Boy charged at his attackers as a bull. Quickly, one of the assassins jumped on top of Beast Boy and stabbed him in his back.
Beast Boy shrieked in pain; jumping up and down.
His agony caused him to run; making him trample over the assassin that wasn't on his back.
He managed to shake the other assassin off.
The assassin was confused as to why Beast Boy wasn't dead. He soon realised that his knife was blunt as he had forgotten to sharpen it.
Beast Boy was furious. Turning into a T-rex, he grabbed both assassins and shoved them down his throat.
Cyborg saw Beast Boy do this and was shocked.
"You're a vegan and you're also a cannibal. That makes no sense!" Cyborg shouted.
An assassin put a bomb onto Cyborg while he was distracted.
Cyborg ran around; Beast Boy grabbed the bomb off Cyborg, with trouble, and ate it.
An exploding noise came from T-rex BB's stomach and he let out a belch.
Cyborg focused on his four assassins, blasting two with his sonic cannon and then proceeding to bash up the other two.
Robin hit his assassin mercilessly with his Bo staff. The sound of bones braking could be heard. The assassin screamed in pain.
Robin walked away from the terrorized assassin to his team mates.
It was only then that they noticed that their friend was in trouble.
"Go away, you retard! AWAY!" Stephanie yelled at the assassin, hitting him with the softball bat.
The assassin quickly got out his sword and with a swift movement, chopped the softball bat into twentieths.
"Um…nice retard? He...he…" she chuckled nervously.
Angrily, the assassin charged.
"Get BACK!" She shouted angrily, pointing at the assassin.
Black fire spiraled out of her finger tip and danced around the assassin; roping themselves around him; burning and strangling him.
The assassin fell to his knees and the fire rope disappeared.
The assassins, apart from the ones Beast Boy ate, huddled together and threw down a smoke bomb.
When the smoke cleared they were gone.
The titans stared wide eyed at Stephanie.
"I have powers" Stephanie said, the news sinking in "I HAVE POWERS!"
"And interesting powers at that" Raven commented, "I've heard of blue fire and silver fire but never black fire. Plus, you seem exceptionally gifted with them; you can control something wild and make it strangle your foe like a vine except the vine is made of fire"
Stephanie grinned an evil grin and turned to Cyborg. She pointed her finger and shot her fire rope at Cyborg, laughing.
"HEY! WHAT'S THIS ALL ABOUT!" Cyborg screamed before the rope went tighter; causing him not to be able to breathe.
"Payback for throwing a fridge on me!"
The fire rope went out and Stephanie started breathing heavily.
She passed out.
$$HOSPITAL$$
"Ugh…" Stephanie groaned, opening her eyes.
She heard yelling in the room. She decided to listen in so she wouldn't be noticed.
"Gah! I was worried about her having a concussion when I first caught her when she was falling! Why didn't I scan her for a concussion? Why didn't I ask for a doctor to check?
BECAUSE I'M A NAÏVE MORON!" She saw that the source of this voice was a boy with a mask on and he was wearing a yellow cape.
The boy turned to face Stephanie and his eyes widened.
"…You're awake…" he stated.
"Oh good, friend Stephanie, you're awake!" a girl with long red hair said happily.
"Why do you care?" Stephanie said, "And who exactly are you?"
"Um hellooo? It's us. The teen titans. Your friends. Remember?" a green boy waved his hand in front of her face.
"Teen Titans?"
The teen titans were silent.
"What's going on doctor?" a girl with a monotonous voice asked a guy wearing a white jacket and a headband with a light on it.
"It seems to me that her concussion was so bad that just after the time she originally got it; after when she fell from the sky, her personality was being altered from the concussion. Now that we seem to have gotten rid of the concussion for good, her personality is like what it was before she got any concussion; before she fell from the sky. Unfortunately, all memory of when she had the concussion seems to have been erased and she still seems to have amnesia" the doctor explained.
"I have amnesia?" Stephanie asked.
"Yes" a big person who looked part robot answered, bluntly.
"…I fell from the sky?"
"Yes"
"…What was I like while I had a concussion?"
$$ JOURNAL$$
O.O
This is weiiirrdd .
The…teen titans explained to me how I fell from the sky and how because of the concussion I did all these weird things.
They also told me what I did. I can't believe I blew up a car.
Then, they found this in my supposed room. They said that they had made me write in this yesterday when I still had the concussion. I read through it and so now I know a bit about what I was like when I had the concussion. That doesn't really matter though because that wasn't really me. I want to know about the real me's life.
I hate amnesia. I don't remember who my family is or who my friends are or anything.
I didn't even know what I actually looked like until I looked into a mirror.
I wonder why the robot guy…Cyborg…keeps giving me weird looks like I'm going to murder him or something. I asked the girl called Raven and she said that I shouldn't worry about it and that it didn't matter.
Probably the freakiest thing I found out today was that; I have powers.
$$ SOMEWHERE$$
"Well. This is interesting. Once again she has forgotten everything. Perfect. However; she now has gained a power and that poses a threat to our plan."
An alarm sounded off and the room flashed red.
One of the two shadows in the room ran to a wall with many television screens showing parts of their hideout.
"Boss, a mysterious figure has broken in! He's trying to get our special treasure! What are your orders?"
"Send the assassins. Send the hounds. I don't care, just kill him."
The other shadow walked up to the many screens to see the intruder.
The intruder had a black cape and was wearing black clothing. He was wearing a mask and on his chest was a letter.
