Yes, I know. It's been Waaayyy to long for an update with this story. I had writer's block. Ya know how artists "paint themselves into corners?" Well, I wrote myself into one. And, now (one) review answers: (This is sooooo exciting, because I thought nobody would review. Yay!)

DarkRavenna:

Thanks for the Review. I'll try to say some more about Beast Boy's new look. I thought that might add an interesting twist to the story. ( I mean, come on, just to say he could not change into another animal would be sooo boring.) And here's the update. I also want to say I really like your story, Collecting the Pieces of a Broken Mirror. Keep it up!

And now, on with the fic!

Chapter Four: Control.

Disclamer: I don't own the Teen Titans. (This applys to Ch.1-3, too. Sorry, I forgot to put it on Ch.2 and 3. Well, It's here (maybe not there, though) now. )

Beast Boy grew up sky high in a matter of seconds. Raven stood on the grown, dumbfounded. 'No wonder I scare people when I get like this,' she thought.

"YOU WENT THOUGH THOSE MEMORIES?" Beast Boy growled in Raven's evil voice.

Raven was a a big dilemma. Beast Boy's body could now pick up girls easily with the brown hair and blue eyes, but did absolutely nothing in the way of crime fighting. She did a back flip to avoid a dark energy tentacle from grabbing her from under BB's cloak.

"THOSE MEMORIES WERE PRIVATE! YOU WILL PAY," Beast Boy continued to growl. Beast Boy used his dark energy to grab Raven and spin her around in mid air, then throw her against the wall.

"Where are the others when you need them," Raven said to herself. She quickly jumped out of the way of a dark energy ball flying towards her.

This went on for several minutes. During that time, Raven started to think. 'Beast Boy is to good with my dark energy to have just learned it.' She thought some more about that. It didn't hit her until Beast Boy started to change back.

"I see you and your evil side have gotten aquatinted," Raven sarcastically stated as BB stared to shrink back to normal size.

"That was just freaky. I wanted to destroy everything in my path. But hey, you looked at my memories."

"all right, I admit it wasn't a great idea. But I think I figured out something. You were doing waaaayyy to good to be using my powers for the first time. And there's only one thing I can think of."

"Which is?"

"Well," Raven started. "You see, I'll always carry Trigon with me. He's an emotion, anger. My powers are on a fine line between DNA makeup, and mental compactly. As we have witnessed, they seem to be more on the DNA plain, or else I would still have them."

"That still does not explain how I became four eyes though."

"Well, anyone could unleash enough emotion to trigger my alter ego.(?) With me, Trigon was always on the verge of disaster, so I had to keep him in check. Of course, being too happy, like Starfire, is dangerous, too. As long as you keep a low emotional output, lower than Star's, you should be all right." She paused. "Let me tell you, no one is as emotional as Starfire."

"So in other words, sense I lack Trigon's evil presence, and Star's happy-go-lucky attitude, it's easier for me to control your powers?"

"Exactly," Raven replied. "But, one more experiment. Pick up that chair over there, with dark energy."

Beast Boy looked uncertain, but attempted it.

"Lets see, umm, Azarath Metrion Zinthos?"

The chair not only lifted of the ground, but started doing loop-de-loops in mid air.

"This is Fun!" Beast Boy grinned at Raven. She couldn't help but smile. The happy moment ended, though, when random things started melting or exploding around the room.

"We'll still have to work on that, but as long as you keep the emotions to a minimum, it'll be all right." Raven frowned. "Now if only I had your changeling (Spelling?) powers, the Titans would be ready to go."

"Maybe...no," she continued.

"What?"

"Didn't your parents inject you with something that got that disease that only animals have survived from to go away, and if i'm not mistaken, that gave you your abilities?"

Beast Boy sighed "I don't particularly like to talk about it, but, yeah, it did."

"What was it?"

"Animal DNA."

"Then, could we draw blood from another animal, and get your powers back?"

"No. It isn't that simple."

"OK, did they leave you any directions if that disease ever came back?"

"They only left me with one thing."

"Which was?"

"Check your utility belt's right side pocket."

Raven dipped into the utility belt. What she pulled out, though, she didn't expect.

It was a locket, and inside was a picture of the Logans.

"I'm sorry, Beast Boy."

"S'okay, it's just that I still miss them, and sometimes wish they were here."

They stood there for several minutes.

Then Beast Boy spoke up. "We might as well just get on with it. There dead, and no amount of sulking is going to bring them back."

Raven was about to close the locket, and put it pack in the utility belt, when the picture fell out.

Behind the picture was the tiniest bottle that she had ever seen. It was only about a centimeter tall.

And inside of it, a green liquid swirled.

"Beast Boy, come look at this."

Raven took out the tiny bottle with the utmost carefulness, and held it up. Then she noticed a note on the back of the picture in the locket. It read:

Animal DNA sample

For use in case symptoms of the Animalias decease. (work with the name)

Emergency Use ONLY.

Last Supply.

"This seems like an emergency to me," Raven said.

About an hour later, the two had analyzed the sample. There study concluded that this was, in fact, the DNA they needed. It was also still good, after being stored in that bottle for so long.

"Yep, I remember. My parents always did everything top notch," Beast Boy stated as he pored the liquid into a seringe.

"Just try to keep it steady, don't let it hurt to much," Raven said, with a almost scared look on her face.

"Awww, is wittle Waven scared of a little shot?" Beast Boy mocked. "Geez, Insults sound good in you voice.

"You want to run that sentence by me again, Bub?" Raven grabbed Beast Boy's cloak, and pulled him towards her.

Beast Boy had gain control over Raven's powers pretty well by now. He attempted something, not sure if it would work. He turned his eyes red, and spoke in Raven's demonic voice, like he was loosing control. "Who' s powerless here?" He growled.

"Beast Boy! Calm down!" Raven said shrilly.

Immediately, Beast Boy, almost on cue, went back to being calm.

Raven was awestruck. She almost never could keep control like that. Switching back between her regular and demonic sides? Controlling Red Raven? She was, well, very impressed.

"How did you do that?" She asked.

"Well, I kinda just found my center, and then mind controlled my evil side," He answered.

"You—I can mind control?"

"Sure, I just thought of something happy."

Raven thought about it. That was here problem; she almost never thought that something happy would link to a mind control ability. Heck, she never even thought she had a mind controlling ability. The more she thought about it, though, the less she was convinced. She decided to see if Beast Boy was telling the truth.

"Mind control some outside of your head."

"Ummm..OK, if it i'll make you believe me.

Beast Boy thought of something really happy. 'Lets see, come here Cyborg!'

Raven and Beast Boy waited. After a few minutes, Cyborg entered the room, looking like he had been drugged. He walked up to Beast Boy. "Hello Raven." He said in a monotone voice. "Where is the Tofu salad?"

Beast Boy grinned (evilly). "Second shelf in the fridge, Cy."

Cyborg then proceeded to get the salad out, open the container, and start eating it.

About half way thought the salad, Beast Boy let his control over Cyborg's mind go.

"How did I get downstairs—and more importantly, why the heck am I eating Beast Boy's TOFU SALAD!!!" Cyborg then got an evil look on his face. He turned slowly and faced Beast Boy, who had his hood up and was whistling.

"Why did you do that, Raven?"

Beast Boy was about to respond, when Raven cut in (The real Raven).

"Hey Cyborg, she plays a pretty mean joke, huh?" Raven said, in perfect Beast Boy dialogue.

"Yeah, she does BB."

Beast Boy leaned against the wall, and looked at his fingernails. "New mind control trick. I must have done pretty good to make you eat Beast Boy's tofu."

His voice was dripping with sarcasm, and he sounded just like Raven.

Cyborg couldn't get mad at Raven. I mean, come on, she's RAVEN (Nevermore, remember?).

"Well, don't do it again," He huffed.

Cyborg was about to walk out of the room. Beast Boy smiled at Raven. Raven got the message, and knew just what to do.

"Ya know Cy, Slade plays a pretty mean trick, too," Once again, in perfect Beast Boy dialogue.

Cyborg turned around. "How so?"

"Well, you remember, earlier, when Slade switched me and Beast Boy's bodies."

Then it all came back to Cyborg.

"SAY WHAT!!!???"

He turned to the real Beast Boy.

"Your gonna wish you hadn't done that, Beast Boy." Cyborg set his systems at 110.

Beast Boy continued to look at his nails. He rubbed them on his cloak.

"Ok, Cyborg, you win. But before you kill me, I have three parting words."

"Which are?"

"Azarath, Metrion, Zinthos!" With that, the robotic parts of Cyborg got incased in dark energy.

"What the?" Cyborg said as he flew out of the room. "Your gonna pay for that you little grass— less stain!"

Then with a wave of his hand, door closed, and locked.

"That was evil." Raven laughed.

"Yes! I got you to laugh! And see, in a longwinded demonstration, that's mind control for ya."

"Very impressive, Beast Boy. I hate to admit it, but you just may control my powers better than I. Still though, if you had an evil demon in your head, well—"

"Well, I don't, so, moving on, you ready to see how you handle my powers?"

Beast Boy motioned towards the shot sitting on the counter.

"Do you're worst."

"Ok, then."

Beast Boy picked up the shot, full of the green swirling liquid. He walked towards Raven, but he didn't see the salad that Cyborg had spit out on the floor.

He slipped and fell.

Raven watched in horror as the shot went into her, now uncontinence, body.

So, how was it? Ok, I hope. If anyone got confused, I got tired of the "he" or "she" thing. So, I started calling them by their minds, not their physical appearance. Also, up until the time Beast Boy tell Cyborg that he's not really Raven, Anything CYBORG thinks or does is referring to Beast Boy and Raven based on physical appearance. Hope I didn't confuse you TOO much. Please Read and Review!

Thanx,

PS- I'm also sorry for anything the spell check got away with. (Or I misspelled.) I had a fight with my computer on the word "uncontinence" it's still not spelled right. Poor me, not noing how to spell.
