Chapter III
Back to Life
Slowly, Beast Boy set Terra down, standing up himself. He apprehensively stepped towards Raven, who still faced the other way. He reached out his right hand, resting it on her shoulder. "Rae, your mark will never leave, will it...?"
"No."
He just stared at her, wondering. Wondering about all the pain she had gone through, the decisions she had to make, the sacrifice to save her friends and bring down her father and Slade. The fact that she had lived her life without freely expressing emotion, though that was slowly changing now. That mark was a scar to torment her forever, remind her every time she looked into the mirror of what she was, what horrors she was capable of creating, what she had brought to this earth. She had conquered destiny by a hair strand, but was still unknowing of what to come; was she also destined to hell?
Raven slowly turned back about. Beast Boy smiled. "You know, I don't think that's the mark of demons," he began, "it's the mark of deceiving fate."
"Thanks"
"Bring her back Rae. No one cares about a silly red symbol. It means gibberish anyways..."
Raven giggled. "Alright"
Beast Boy couldn't help but feel really good right then. Raven laughing? She was changing so much lately, as Trigon's influence became weaker and weaker. She could loosen up and have fun without worry of blowing anything up now. It was a relief to finally see her happy. He had learned just before the Hellday incident of her affection towards Robin, now she could love without fret.
Raven stared down upon Terra, finding it disturbing to see the energetic and lively person she once knew cold and quiet. "I, I think I know what to do. It's going to have to be completely silent so I don't lose concentration..."
Beast Boy replied with a nod. Feeling slightly scared of the lifeless body before her, Raven placed her hand on Terra's forehead. She closed her eyes, thinking deeply to find the magic inside that she needed. Beast Boy watched in amazement as a silvery mist of power enveloped Raven's hand, searching for the lost soul. He cautiously came forward, witnessing the miracle in awe, leaning next to Raven over Terra, looking between both faces rapidly. When he felt a touch.
Terra's hand was moving ever so delicately, reaching for someone. Beast Boy immediately bent down, making eye-level with her hand, holding it dearly. "Terra...!"
With a gasp for air and a cough of dust, Terra's eyes opened. "Wha-?"
"Oh my gawd! Terra!" Beast Boy yelped, immediately glomping her.
Raven grinned, obviously proud of her handiwork. "Welcome back."
