Okay, this chapter is basically about Terra getting Byrnes back to Titans Tower. Everyone wakes up, and hears about the battle and stuff. I'm not good at these so here ya go. (I dont own teen titans either!


Safe

Terra and Byrnes arrived back at Titans Tower shortly after they left the battle site. Byrnes was lying unconscious on the boulder from his wounds. The boulder floated down to the roof of the tower. Terra jumped off and then gently lifted Byrnes down onto the roof then flung the boulder into the sea. She carried him into the main room, where everyone was sleeping, and Slade's minions had deactivated Cyborg. There was no sign of them there now, so she laid Byrnes down on the couch, and tried to reactivate Cyborg.

"Stupid crap, turn on!"

She smacked Cyborg in the back of the head and his eyes opened.

"Cyborg?" Terra asked, making sure he was really back.

"Yeah, and don't slap me like that again." Cyborg said jokingly

"Gotcha." Terra tiredly replied.

"How long has everyone been out like this?" Cyborg asked, looking around the room at all his sleeping friends.

"Ever since we left and Slade's minions raided the tower. But I don't think any damage was done." Terra said as she took a seat in the big recliner chair.

Cyborg did a scan on the tower, and nothing was damaged or stolen. He then scanned all his friends, and estimated they would be out another few hours. He then did a scan on Byrnes, and the results were not so good for him.

"He has many broken ribs, internal bleeding, damaged skull, a severe concussion, dislocated shoulder, many muscle strains, and a deadly loss of blood. He's going to be out of commission for a while." Cyborg said as he read over the results of his scan in the hospital room.

"And Slade's still alive." Terra said.

"It's ok. We'll go after him again once everyone gets better."

"No it's not. Byrnes almost had him beat, and I could have killed him, but I rushed back here because I knew Byrnes was hurt bad."

"Well you did the right thing, if he had been left like that for much longer, he would have died." Cyborg said sadly.

"I know Cyborg...I know." Terra said as walked towards her friend and wrapped her arms around him.

He placed a hand on her shoulder as she hugged him. She was looking at Byrnes's beaten and bloody body the whole time.

A few hours later, the rest of the titans woke up. They were all dizzy from the sleeping gas, and didn't know what had happened. They didn't know about Byrnes's fight with Slade, or about his condition.

"What's going on?" Beastboy asked during a big yawn.

"You guys have been sleeping." Cyborg replied.

"What happened?" Raven said as she approached Cyborg, knowing that something had happened while they were sleeping.

"Ask Terra." Cyborg said as he pointed to Terra, sitting in the dark corner Raven usually occupies.

Raven slowly walked over to Terra and looked her in the eyes. She removed her hood, so she could look at Terra better.

"What happened?"

"Yeah, what was going on while we were sleeping?" Beastboy asked as he and the others walked over to Terra to hear the story.

Terra told them the story, all of it, in great detail. Telling them about their experience with death was hard enough. And telling them that Byrnes almost died again was just as hard on her.

"I'm sorry guys, I got to go." Terra said as she ran towards her room.

"He tried to defeat Slade all by himself?" Starfire asked confused like.

"And those dream creatures." Robin added.

"Well he killed all of them, so that's one less problem we have." Raven said.

"But Slade's still out there." Beastboy added.

"We'll deal with Slade later, we just have to worry about Byrnes's condition right now." Robin said.

"I hope our new friend will be ok." Starfire said

"Me too." Raven said, as she walked away from the group, towards the hospital room.

As she entered the room, she saw Byrnes laying on a bed with a life support system hooked up to him. His ribs were heavily wrapped in bandages, as well were his arms and back. He had stitches on his forehead. His arm was in a sling. He had many scars on his body now. One going up his chin, and many more on his back. A small stream of blood started to run from his mouth. Raven put her cape to his chin and wiped it up. She then ran her fingers through his now cleaned blonde red hair. She didn't know what she was doing, she just drifted off. Raven pulled a chair up and sat down next to him.

Terra soon entered the room as well. She pulled up another chair and sat next to Raven. She looked Raven in the eyes, and Raven gave her the same look back. Then they just sat there, making sure Byrnes would be ok.

Later that night, Byrnes opened his eyes to see both of the girls sitting by his side, sleeping. A smile crept across his face, as he blacked out again.


Okay, there it was. And...since Terra and Beastboy are in Titans Tower together, and kiss must not be far off, right? Well, it might be a few chapters before i get to it, because i want to make it all climactic and meaningful and stuff. But there's tons and chunks and way more where that came from, so stay tuned...lol. R&R thanks, peace
