I'm back! This chapter might contain what had been interrupted by Slade in the episode "Betrayal". Yeah, you know what I'm talking about! (hint hint) Anyway...
The Almighty T.J. Blade: LOL! Snakes rock.
Scott Okragleski: You get...This giant cookie!

Chapter Eight: Part of the Team?
Terra and Beast Boy were lying on their backs in the grass, looking up at the clouds. A quiet breeze blew, moving the white water vapor along. It's strange how quickly a cloud can change shape. You can be looking at one shaped somewhat like an oval, and it'll even out and become completely flat while you watch it, and you never really notice until it's so thin that you can't see it anymore.
Terra pointed at one. "That one looks like a dragon."
Beast Boy pointed to another one. "That one looks like a rock."
"They ALL look like rocks!"
"Yeah, but that one looks like the ultimate rock of doom!" Beast Boy retorted.
Terra smiled. "This one looks like a horse."
Beast Boy looked at it and frowned. "Dude, that's totally a deer."
"What? It's a horse!"
"Hey, I know my animals!"
"Yeah right, you can't even tell a horse from a deer!"
Beast Boy stuck his tongue out at her. Smiling, Terra stood up and reached her hand out to Beast Boy, helping him up.
"Come on; let's get back to the tower." Terra turned and started to walk away, but something was pulling her back.
Beast Boy still had hold of her hand. She turned back to him and wrapped her arms around his neck. Beast Boy's arms were around her waist. Terra stared into his large, emerald eyes. God, how she loved those eyes! Their faces were almost touching. Terra leaned in, closer, closer…
A loud beeping sound and a flash of red ruined the moment. It was Beast Boy's communicator. They pulled away from each other and a second later the other Titans ran out of the Tower.
"Bank robbery!" yelled Robin. Raven gave Terra and Beast Boy a weird look, her eyebrow raised. Beast Boy quickly changed into a pterodactyl and grabbed Robin by the shoulders. There was no time to get the T-car. Starfire got Cyborg and they all took off.
Terra hesitated, unsure of whether to go. Beast Boy's dinosaur head turned and looked at her. Terra nodded and lifted off the ground on a hunk of earth.
They got there just in time to see a large robot taking all of the money out of a large vault. It turned and looked at them all with unseeing eyes. Fake eyes. It raised its arms and missiles shot out of them.
"Titans go!" shouted Robin. They all dodged the missiles, and began attacking the robot. Starfire shot it with her eye-lasers, but they only made it angry. At least it would have been angry if it were alive.
"Azareth, Mentrion, Zinthose!" (A/N. Did I spell those right?)
Raven sent several light posts flying at the robot, only managing to dent its armor. The battle seemed hopeless. If they stayed in one place too long, the robot would fire missiles. But they couldn't get in a good attack if they kept moving.
Beast Boy changed into a rhino and rammed into the robot with all his strength, knocking it to the ground. Terra quickly raised a large slab of rock and slammed it on the fallen robot, holding it down with all her strength. After several seconds, she lifted the stone, and found the robot crushed.
"All right Terra!"
A couple weeks later….
"She's proved herself several times."
"She's done that before."
"Come on, Raven. She's extremely powerful, and now that Slade's back we might need her help."
"What makes you think she won't help Slade instead?"
"What makes you think she'll betray us again?"
Silence.
"Terra."
"Yeah, Robin?"
"We've come to a decision, and we've decided to let you become part of the team." He held out his hand, which held a communicator.
Terra gasped. "What? I mean, I…you…I don't know what to say", she stuttered.
"Say yes!" said Beast Boy.
Terra closed her eyes and smiled, and took the communicator from Robin's hand.
Mwahahahaha! I'm so mean! Well, beware, the next chapter will contain lots of BB and Terra fluff (Phantom of the Opera music plays). Sorry if the fight scene sucked, but it wasn't that important to the chapter. Sayonara!
