Ch.15 A Game of Chess
A titan…that's what they were called. That's when they all trusted each other. That's when they had a cool headed leader, a techno machine, a powerful alien, a beautiful gothic friend, and a funny short green changeling. But, now all they are a group of 5 people who can't work as a team, defending there city, and there world. Teen Titans are suppose to work together to save there city, but they can't even save themselves; because they all have suffered one mans cruelty. A man so evil, so inhuman that he killed his own wife in front of his little daughter and then slaughtered her to. A man so cruel that he killed hundreds of teens and children, and was prosecuted by a judge that set him free because had money on his side, and in his pockets. A man so dark, that he was killed by the parents of the deceased, and called it un-justice. This man has destroyed the Titans from the inside out, and he doesn't even care. Now a group of lost heroes, are determined to destroy the person that had annihilated there team, and there city, with his right hand, and a bag of tricks. This could be the biggest battle, the Titans have and will face. This is nothing more than the power of justice in the hands of children. This is America, and all that it stands for. This is one long ass speech that has a purpose. Its purpose is to show you that even though there hearts are shattered there spirits will always live on.
That is what Beast Boy read on the wall in his mind. He had seen it change before his eyes. It was magical that he could even think of something like this, he heard Evangel smile at the site in front of him. Maybe this green boy just might have a chance. But one thought still lingered in the emotions mind.
"Master…why did you try to commit suicide?"
Beast Boy's body snapped around. He couldn't believe what he just heard. Was this thing really his emotion? If he was then he would have known why…but then again, he didn't know himself.
"Well, now I don't understand why, but I think it had something to do with the Beast inside me."
"You mean anger? He only broke out because of the chemicals and you know it, so do the Titans."
"No it's not that…it's the fact that the Titans have and always never trust me because of what I couldn't control. They haven't been acting the same around me, I felt depressed, angry, sad, alone. All those emotions kept piling on my conscience and I couldn't take it."
"You know I know you best…and that wasn't the reason why the Titans didn't feel comfortable. Think about it this way, what would you do if one of your team mates lost control like you did. What would you do when he became normal and was around you?"
"I would treat him like normal?"
"You know you're a terrible liar. You would be afraid of them, because you didn't want them to lose control and hurt you or themselves again. They were just thinking the most human emotion ever. They were being couscous and safe, because they now you're a boiling pot ready to explode with the right punch."
Beast Boy thought about the words of his emotion and sat down in another chair, he didn't think of it that way, now that he thinks of it, he didn't think at all. He would have never thought of putting it that way, how did his emotions gets so smart. But while he was thinking his body was moving.
"Sir, your body is moving!"
Beast Boy snapped his fingers and a screen appeared. The clock in his vision said 5:00; he had only 2 hours to think of an escape plan before the attack would begin. His heart began to beat hard. He kept thinking but then an idea came to his head. He focused hard in front of him, he tried to make the object in his mind and then it appeared in front of him, a single simple plain white door with a silver handle and a keyhole.
"That your escape plan!" cried Evangel.
"Yep, what do you think?"
"I…I…I think, I think you're a complete numbskull but this just might work."
Beast Boy smiled and turned the doorknob in front of him, he pulled but it wouldn't open. He needed something more.
"I think you need a key."
"A key? A fucking key? That's your answer! What kind of a key do I need."
"A special one, why don't you make one."
Beast Boy huffed and made a perfect size key for the door, he grabbed it and placed it in the lock, he turned and pulled, still nothing.
"You need a special key to open the door to your mind Beast Boy. Once your there, you can escape and we emotions will help you defeat him with your team. But first you need to find your special key."
"What does that mean?"
"When the time comes you will know."
"God damn, I hate you and your damn puzzles."
Beast Boy walked over to his seat and sat in it, watching the movement in front of him.
In the real world, the Titans were preparing to go to the club, Robin was busy arming his belt and body with dozens of weapons, and he wasn't going to be un-prepared for the battle ahead.
Cyborg was in his room, he was looking at a picture of him and Bumble Bee that he kept on his desk near the one with Jinx. He never knew how lucky he was to have 2 beautiful friends, both of them he loved so deeply. His mechanical blood boiled and fizzled. He was going to kill whatever bastard killed Bee; he was going to get his revenge.
Starfire was in her room, sulking, she did not know what to feel. Anger about her friends death, happiness she got to kiss Robin and finally get to show her emotions for him, or sad that all her friends were falling apart.
Raven was simply meditating, but she was going to try and enter Speedy's still unconscious body, he maybe in a coma, but some how his mind was controlled, like Brother Blood's mind control. But he was in a maximum security jail, far away from Jump City, Steel City, hell even Gotham. She still found no way in his mind; he was completely shut like a bank vault.
Beast Boy, well he was just peachy, he sat on top of the tower and watched the sun set; he could feel the friendship dieing in the team. He smiled and let Freddy feel there pain, he shuck his head and laughed as well. He was going to kill the rest of the cops down in the club, but it was too risky. The two of them both were waiting, waiting to strike against there friends like a pack of wolves.
"2 more hours, then I will have my body back and I can finally live to kill!"
Kruger watched as less and less people looked at the bodies, hell they crossed the street and ran; now all that was left was the damn cops. They were waiting for the Titans, but they began to lose hope if they were coming. When 7:00 struck, only 5 guards were left, he was going to leave them, they would make the biggest scene, and that's what he wanted. A big scene of people to watch there beloved Titans fall to his claw, one by one.
In hell Slade sat on a large throne like chair. With Trigon behind him, smiling showing his rotten, blood covered, and sharpened, fangs. He was worried though, what if Kruger failed, what if he succeeded in killing all the Titans?
"Tell me Slade, what will happen if he kills my daughter?"
"Do not worry master, even Kruger's not that stupid, he knows the girl is a valuable item, for now."
Trigon rubbed his massive forehead and looked up again.
"And if he does kill all the Titans and sends us to earth then what? Will you really give him his body back?"
"Of course not, he is too dangerous to our mission if he does have his body and immortality. You see, I am hoping he doesn't kill them, because I want the pleasure of taking there lives. You see, when I told him he would have all his powers, I meant he would have ALL his powers, muhahahaha."
"What does that mean?"
"You will see Slade, he is nothing but a knight in our game of chest, and the Titans are well in check, and you, my king, are well protected by your pawns."
Trigon sat back into a fiery chair and rubbed his head again, he was very worried about this plan, he couldn't see any flaws, but he knew there had to be a catch.
In the living world the Titans had begun there trip to the slaughtered club, Robin, Raven and Cyborg sat in the T-car. Robin was too frustrated to drive his R-cycle. But no body talked at all, they seemed to be uncomfortable about what was going on, Raven was sweating and freezing at the same time. She felt a true evil near her, but she was not in stored for what was about to happen. Starfire and Beast Boy flew over head. Beast Boy had placed his claws in a back pack and buried it inside the T-car. He watched the metal vehicle zoom passed late night traffic, and the watched the alien girl fly ahead of him. He couldn't wait to slit each of there throats on his own. But the inner Beast Boy could watch hopelessly with a riddling emotion, a vision censored T.V and a doorway to freedom that doesn't work. This was not going much as he had planned.
