Chapter 5: Feeling of Uselessness.

BeastBoy sighed as he stood in the common room, unheard by anyone. His thoughts were wondering what things would happen today, to make him get another visit from someone from another dimension, or whatever. Trying to think too hard about it made BeastBoy's head hurt, so he tried not to dwell too much on it, even though he couldn't help it. And all these hints about there being someone close by that could be the one who loves him. He kept trying to figure it out, but he always got a headache within five minutes, and was always forced to abandon his train of thought.

The day was a normal one, with the typical happenings inside the tower. Nothing interesting, save for a point in time where Robin drank straight from the faucet of the sink for about five minutes after having tried another dish of Starfire's. Other than that, nothing happened, although Raven did come up and ask him something.

"So, BeastBoy...did...you get the help you were looking for?" she asked concernedly. BeastBoy looked over at her.

"Yeah. Yeah, I'm fine now." he said truthfully.

"Well, that's good. I...didn't want to have lost you." she said, and walked out of the room without a further word. BeastBoy stared after her with confusion, but forgot about it when the alarm began to sound. There was a disturbance at the park, and the Titans were off.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It was Plasmus, looking as hideous as ever. It seemed like he was just doing total mindless destruction, but that seemed typical of all villains. Starfire took Robin by the arms, and flew him up to where he threw some discs at Plasmus, which stuck in his body and exploded, spreading his oozy body outward, but he just remade himself. Cyborg and Raven combined their powers as a powerful blast of energy, but it had about the same effect as Robin's discs. BeastBoy tried his hand at charging down Plasmus as a bull, but it didn't work. Plasmus saw him coming, and blasted him with enough ooze to send him flying far back, into the lake. BeastBoy had to turn into a fish, because the ooze was heavily weighted in the water, and he would have drowned if he hadn't turned into something with gills. It took him what felt like forever to get the ooze to fall off of him and get out of the lake. By the time he had returned, the battle was over, and Plasmus was back into his sleeping human form, and most of the Titans looked pretty badly beaten. Robin had death glares in his eyes.

"Took your time, didn't you?" he said menacingly. "Sometimes you're really useless, you know that?" he finished scathingly, and walked away, still covered in ooze. BeastBoy stared after him, a look of strained anger on his face, which eventually turned into a look of resignation. Unaware of Raven's nearby presence, he turned his arm into a panther claw, and aimed for his wrist, ready to end it. Before the claw reached his wrist though, a powerful black energy encased his arm, and pulled it away. Looking over, he just realized that Raven was there. She looked on the verge of tears.

"BeastBoy...you promised me. Please, why do you want to do that?" she asked sadly. Hearing her voice sound like that tore at BeastBoy's heart, so he knew he should tell her.

"Robin just said it. I'm useless. One hit, and I was out of the fight for the entire match. If I can't get through a fight without surviving one hit, then why should I be on a team of heroes?" he asked.

"I told you, BeastBoy. Robin's an idiot who has to take his anger out on someone if his precious pride is damaged, even if he's the one who damaged it. All that ooze on him? It hurt his appearance, one thing he's proud of, so he had to take it out on you, instead of letting go of all his pride. Don't listen to him." she replied. BeastBoy stared at her, and sighed.

"All right. I won't listen to Robin anymore. This time is the true time. I won't try to cut myself." he said, and Raven released her powers' hold on his arm, and let it fall to his side. "Thanks, Raven." he said, and turned into a hawk to fly to the tower, and immediately headed to bed afterwards, as it was already late at night.

BeastBoy's Dream...

A familiar blackness was all around him, and he waited. Then he heard voices.

"BeastBoy?" asked Colette.

"Can you hear us?" called Aeris.

"Yeah. I can hear you fine." he said.

"Good. Remember what we said." said Aeris.

"Please, don't give up!" pleaded Colette.

"All right. Good bye." he replied. They said good bye, and BeastBoy heard a voice behind him.

"Turn around, pal." it said. BeastBoy turned around, and saw the biggest crowd of people he'd seen so far. There were nine in all. He recognized Goku was back, standing next to a man as muscular as him, with black hair like his, but its spikes stood up so much straight and taller, and he had a look of boredom on his face. There was a group of four giant turtles, all wearing a different colored bandanna on their head, as well as a different letter on their belts. They all stood on their hind legs. Behind the two groups was a group of three, consisting of a tall boy with brown, slightly spiky hair, holding what looked like a giant key. There appeared to be a large dog, standing on its hind legs, though there was a feeling of humanity on him, wearing a suit of armor. There was also a very large duck, wearing a wizard's garb, and holding a staff.

"Uhh...there sure are a lot of people here this time." BeastBoy said, trying to sound casual.

"Yup!" said Goku happily. "I didn't expect to be here again, but that's all right. This here is Vegeta." he said, pointing at the spiky-haired man next to him, who merely made an acknowledging nod.

"I'm Leonardo." said the turtle with the blue bandanna. "This is Raphael, Michelangelo, and Donatello." he said, pointing at the ones with the red, orange, and purple bandanna in turn. They all said their greetings when he called their name.

"And I'm Sora." said the kid with the giant key. "This is Goofy and Donald." he said, pointing at the dog, then the duck.

"Hiya!" said Goofy.

"Hello." said Donald.

"We're all here to help you through this new feeling of yours: The feeling of uselessness. You felt it not long ago, correct?" said Goku. BeastBoy nodded.

"Well, it's not right to think you're useless. Nobody is." said Sora.

"That's right. If you are in a team, and work hard to be a part of that team, then there's no reason to ever think you're useless." said Leonardo. "Take us, for example. We may be turtles, but we've worked as a team, and saved our city countless times, but only by working together. Each of us has skills that exceeds the others, making our combined skills a great power."

"Yeah!" exclaimed Goku. "Me and Vegeta know all about combining our skills. Let's show him, Vegeta!" he said hopefully. Vegeta turned to him.

"Kakarot, that was not part of the deal!" he exclaimed. "I don't want to humiliate myself again!"

"Ah, come on, Vegeta. Don't be such a stiff. Just this one time?" Goku begged. Vegeta scoffed.

"All right, just stop begging me. The Saiyan race has been disgraced enough already." he said, and walked a few feet to his left, and Goku to his right. They made a stance with their arms pointing out in opposite directions, then slowly moved their way sideways, while moving their arms over their head, to where they pointed at each other.

"Fuuu--" they began. Then they stood straight, their outer legs going over their inner to bend towards each other, after moving their arms, with their hands now balled into fists, pointing away.

"--sion!" they yelled. They then leaned their bodies to each other, making one arm over their other, with one finger pointing from each hand, and made their fingers touched while they leaned sideways, to make their fingers touch.

"HA!" they yelled. As soon as their fingers touched, a brilliant flash of light happened, and when it cleared, where Goku and Vegeta did that strange ritual, stood a new person, whose hair reminded him of Vegeta, but it was gold now, and had the facial features of Goku, although his face was serious now.

"I am neither Goku nor Vegeta. I am...Gogeta!" he said, in a voice that sounded like Goku and Vegeta speaking at the same time. "So you see, our powers have combined, making us immensely strong. Without this power, we wouldn't have been able to stop a great evil from destroying our world." said Gogeta.

"And that's one thing that happened to us." said Sora. "With the help of these two guys, I was able to save not only my world, but several other worlds that had been devoured, or were in risk of being devoured, by beings of darkness known as The Heartless. If it wasn't for these guys, we wouldn't have done it. I would never have gotten as strong with the Keyblade as I am now." he said, indicating the giant key he held.

"So as you can see, nobody in a team is useless. You have skills that have saved the team a number of times, I'm sure." said Leonardo. BeastBoy thought. He did indeed help Raven during the trouble with the Beast, as well as helping the team from Adonis. He did convince Thunder to stop the trouble he and Lightning were causing. He defeated the entire army of evil Tofu, too. As he thought, BeastBoy realized he wasn't as useless as he had thought.

"Yeah, you guys are right. I don't know what keeps coming over me." he said.

"Anybody can be consumed by dark feelings. It takes a real powerful person to overcome them, even with help." said Gogeta.

"Yeah, I was onced consumed by darkness, but I got out." said Sora.

"Well, now that you have learned, our work is done." said Leonardo, and BeastBoy was enveloped by that bright light, and was out of bed before he was fully awakened, wanting to see what was here this time.

He found a drawing of two people doing a familiar little dance, which resulted in a picture of one person. There was also a giant key, and four differently-colored bandannas. Smiling, BeastBoy left his room, no longer feeling useless.
