A/N: Okay, here's chapter eleven. Because starting today I have to get up at six a.m. every morning for school, my midnight writing sprees are now dashed. So chapters will probably come more slowly. Sorry.

Major props to my reviewers. Where would I be without you guys?

Carolyn Carissa Sydney: Thank you! I'm glad you like it! Update your story soon!

TK FoX: Thanks! I did consider having him beat the living crap outta her, but like PsychoMindGames said, it's too soon. He'll beat her when we get to part 2, don't worry. And you're reviews don't waste my time; I love reading them.

Angela: Thank you! It just seemed like the proper punishment to me. Glad you liked it!

Io Europa 2010: Thanks! Yep, she's pretty pissed-off, which is always fun to write.

Disclaimer: All I own is the plot… wait, I'm just adding stuff… so, no, I own nothing.


Chapter Eleven: One Down

Terra POV

"Hey guys. Miss me?"

With a yell, I sent a hailstorm of small rocks straight at their precious T-Car. The five of them jumped out of the way, leaving me to smash it to a pulp. When the assault was over, I grabbed the chunk of pavement I used to make them wreck and smashed it down on top of the car, too. No more trips to the diner anymore! Now that their car was squashed flat, they had no escape. I made the pavement below me break off, and I shot straight at the Titans.

"Titans, GO!" came Robin's signature yell, and they were off. All five were charging straight at me. No problem. Skimming the road, I formed a large crack in front of me. A pillar shot up from the end, shooting Raven and Robin out of sight. The others continued charging, Starfire sending her starbolts, but a simple boulder knocked her flat. Cyborg now aimed his canon at me and fired, breaking the pavement beneath me in half. I chucked the broken piece right back at him and Beast Boy. It hit Cyborg head-on, but Beast Boy managed to jump out of the way. He changed into a hawk and flew towards me. He changed back to human form and hauled himself up onto my rock, hanging on for dear life.

"Terra, stop!" he yelled desperately. "We're your friends!" Friends? You think we're still friends after you treated me like the dirt under your bed just one week ago? I glared at him harshly, still hurt by his words.

"I don't have any friends, remember?" With that, I gave him a nice, friendly upper-cut that sent him flying back down to the street below.I flipped off the rock, which continued soaring, and headed over to where Robin lay, having been knocked out earlier. I smiled viciously. This is going to be like taking candy from a baby. I made two rocks hover over Robin, waiting to crush him flat. Before I could pick their leader off, Raven came up next to me, levitating a rock of her own.

"Don't make me hurt you," she said fiercely. Her, hurt me? Yeah right.

"Don't make me laugh," I replied with a sarcastic smile. I took control of her rock and sent all three boulders hurtling at her instead. The impact sent her flying down the street. I felt an arm swing at me, and turned to face Robin. We took swings at each other energetically, but neither of us made contact. Within seconds, Cyborg joined Robin in his attack. Two on one? Come on boys, that's not very nice. With two swift kicks, they were both thrown off in opposite directions. Robin was up at charging back at me in seconds. I sent up a very jagged rock wall in front of him that stretched far down on either side of the Boy Wonder. I smiled triumphantly. Suddenly, the section of wall in front of me exploded and sent me flying. It was those damn exploding discs!

I'd landed right next to Cyborg. "Sorry, kid," he said, raising his sonic-cannon. It's not gonna be that easy, Tin Man. I Stabbed the ground with my hand and a huge glowing crack shot across the ground beneath him and Robin. It's exploded under their feet, sending them both flying through the air.

I glanced over at Raven who was still dazed from earlier. Easy target. I raised a huge boulder above her, ready to crash it down on her. I almost crushed her flat, but Starfire grabbed it using her alien strength, and chucked it back at me. Using my powers I sent it straight back at her. She used her starbolts to destroy it, and shot her eyebeams straight at me. There was no time to counter, and I was hit. I crashed into the wall I'd created, slightly dazed but okay.

Starfire's the sweet, sensitive one, not to mention naïve. She'll be easy enough to fool. I slumped my head, eyes closed, pretending I was knocked out. Sure enough, within seconds, I heard her voice above me.

"Terra?" she said in obvious concern. I waited a few more seconds before shooting my eyes back open.

"You always were easy to fool," I told her truthfully, and the pavement below her exploded as I shot jet of mud out, sending her flying. I stood in pain, but hid it, instead just brushing off dirt from my uniform. I looked over at where she had landed. Within a few seconds, the team had assembled, all of them shooting me death-glares.

And then, something really weird happened. I felt like I was going to faint, but I somehow stood firm. Then, without me trying to do anything at all, glowing cracks began appearing in the pavement all around me, and more power shot through the cracks. Then, without warning, two huge mud-monster things shot up from the ground in front of me, facing the Titans. Right after they appeared, the strange feeling went away. I looked away from the mud-men and stared at my hands in mild shock.

"Whoa," I said to myself quietly. "How did I—"

"You didn't," came Slade's voice from my earpiece. "I did."


Slade POV

Things were going well. I was watching the fight from my monitors. Terra's fighting techniques were good, and her style was excellent. What was more, all five of them were holding back, obviously reluctant to hurt their old friend. Nevertheless, I wanted things to work faster. I hadn't told Terra about the suit's ability to let me control her powers, so it was obviously a shock for her. Time to explain before she thinks she's gone mental.

"Your new suit is more than a fashion statement, my dear," I spoke into the microphone. "It is a sophisticated neural interface that gives me direct access to your nervous system." In my mind, I could just see her asking 'In English, please?' Simplified version. "Your power is my power. My strength is your strength. We are connected Terra, as master and apprentice. We fight as one!" I finished dramatically.

Once again, I activated the control device, and together, we started controlling the mud-like creatures. They attack the Titans fiercely at our command, giving Terra and me the upper hand. I controlled what she did less and less as each minute passed. Though I gave her a few prods in the right direction, she was soon controlling everything on her own. That's my good little girl. The Titans were failing, and they knew it.

Things were soon getting very bad for the Titans. No matter what they tried, they couldn't beat the mutant mud creatures. As I continued to watch the scene, Robin stepped up and held up one of his discs.

"Titans! Fall back!" he yelled,throwing the disc at Terra. She raised an arm to block it, but it was merely a smoke bomb. She instantly broke her concentration as the smoke engulfed her. She couldn't see a thing, and she was coughing harshly. I have to get her out of there. I took control again, sending a pillar up from below her that shot out of the cloud of smoke. I looked over at the monitor that showed what she saw through her camera-contacts. The Titans were retreating under the cover of a smoke screen, except for one. Beast Boy stood alone, staring up at Terra in disappointment. After a few seconds, he headed into the fog as well.

One single attack isn't going to work. They fight far too well together as a team. Once they got their wits together again, they'd fight with full force together, which no villain, save myself, could stand up against. The best course of action was to divide and conquer.

"Terra," I said into the microphone. "Excellent work. Obviously, they'll have gone back to the Tower to strategize. You're not ready to fight them by yourself on your own. So we'll have to split them up. Understand?"

"Yes," she replied, a little sharply. Probably angry that I said she can't fight them. I chose to ignore it for the moment. We had work to do.

I thought quickly. "Now, I want you to come back to the base and pick a few things up. Be here in five minutes." I shut the microphone off, and waited for her return.

She was there within minutes, looking serious. She wants them defeated as badly as I do. I stared at her for a few moments, taking in her messy hair, numerous cuts, and other signs of just emerging from battle.

"Are you seriously injured?" She shook her head. "Good, now listen carefully. Take these three discs," I held them up, all marked with my insignia, "and go to the prison and release Plasmus, Cinderblock, and Overload. Make sure you trip the alarm. Then, place one of these discs on each of their chests. I will take it from there. Stand by and wait for further instruction. Understand?"

She gave me a funny look. "Who're Plastic, Blockhead, and Overdrive?"


Once she knew what to do, Terra completed the task with no problem. The alarm was tripped, and it sent a signal to the Tower to inform them of the trouble. The neural remotes for the three were online, giving me complete control of the three of them. I sent Cinderblock outside a deserted warehouse, Plasmus to a chemical factory, and Overload went to a high-security testing facility. While my control enhanced their fighting skills, they still used their own techniques to fight. Robin and Starfire headed off to take on Cinderblock, Cyborg and Beast Boy took Plasmus, and Raven went to get Overload. Everything is under control.

Raven defeated Overload in hardly anytime. I knew that he'd go down first, so Terra was ready. Merely seconds after Overload was changed back into his 'chip' form, Terra had taken over.

Terra POV

This is what I'd been looking forward to the most, defeating Raven. The stupid witch, I hated her the most, with Beast Boy at a close second. Preparing to the flood the room, I made the pipes along the wall start shooting out mud. With hardly any effort, I hit her in the face with a shot of mud, sending her flying into the wall, covered from head to toe with the mud. The dude Overdrive, or whatever Slade called him, floated away.

Raven got up, glaring at me fiercely. "Terra." She said coldly.

"Raven," I said calmly with a slight nod.

"Traitor!" she said harshly, raising a fist.

"Witch," I said coldly, and we both charged.

I soared forward on a wave of mud and headed straight for her. She flew up at me as well, and we met as I jumped off the wave. We struggled for a bit, and then the evil witch pounded her foot in my face. I went crashing down into the mud, and came up covered in it. Why, you filthy little… I rose up on a column and hit her with an aerial attack, sending us both beneath the muck. We both grabbed hold of each other's necks, but we both held firm. I finally got her off of me, and stood up out of the mud. I reached down and pulled her up by her hair. But using some of those damn powers of hers, she blasted me off of her. She then turned and pounced on me, shoving me under the muck. Oh, come on. I can control this stuff. I parted the mud around me, letting me breathe, and then sent a huge bubble up at Raven, knocking her off of me.

I bent down I boiled small rocks, and shot them straight at the ceiling, planning to pelt her in an aerial attack. Raven ripped a piece of the metal wall and positioned it above the rocks, stopping them, and shot the panel at me. I made a wave of mud come up above me and hardened it, making a shield. The impact shattered it, but I formed the shattered pieces into a fist and shot it straight at her. She used her powers and cut the fist down the center. She then started concentrating her powers somewhere else. I looked up just in time to see a huge technical thing falling right above me. The blow sent me flying into the mud.

This is getting ridiculous. Before I went under, I'd managed to see where she was. Once again moving the mud away from my nose and mouth, I used my powers to raise a large mud-mallet above where Raven was hovering. Smirking, I sent it straight down. I loud cry told me that I'd hit my mark, and I rose up out of the mud. Raven resurfaced a few seconds later.

"You know, Raven, I never liked you," I said sweetly. She glared at me.

"I never even wanted to know you! You may have fooled the others, but I always knew you were a liar." Oh, bull.

"Oh, really?" I asked sarcastically. I began to get the mud off my suit, rolling it into a ball. "Is that why you let me live in your house, and steal all your secrets, and—"

"Shut up!" she yelled harshly, sending a wave of mud at me. I easily stopped her.

I heard static. "Good, Terra," came Slade's voice. "You know her weakness. Exploit it." With pleasure. I rose up on one of my rock platforms, making the ball of mud off my uniform spin around.

Time for some taunting. "Your not mad, are you, Rae," I asked in a mock concerned voice. "Oh, better be careful. Beast Boy told me all about your little temper tantrums." That should get a rise out of her. I formed the little ball of mud into a horribly grotesque version of Raven face.

"Anger is pointless," she said in a monotone. Damn it. Didn't work. "My emotions are under control." Not for long.

"Nyeh, nyeh, nyeh," I said in a sing-song voice, and raised a hand. "'Anger is pointless'" I made that 'blah blah' gesture with my hand, and I made the mouth of the mud-head do the same. "And you're calling me a liar?"

She rushed at me again in a clear rage. I made a fist shoot up and grab her ankle, causing her to trip. She landed in a crouch, head bowed. I caused some smaller rocks to line up, making a small staircase from the platform to Raven. I walked down it leisurely.

"Come on, Raven. What hurts the most?" I asked her, forming a small ridge and walking down it. "That I tricked you? That I nearly took out you team?" I now began making the mud come up around Raven, hardening quickly. I crouched down next to her. "That everyone liked me better than you?"

"Stop it," she said harshly, the mud around her shoulders now. Oh no. This is too much fun.

I smirked, pleased with what I was doing to her. "Or was it that deep down, you really believed I was your friend?"

And then, it happened. Raven suddenly had four red glowing eyes, and she shot out of her rock-cocoon, towering above me. She looked positively demonic. She started chucking everything in sight at me; panels from the walls, computer junk, and other technical stuff. I had to back to the other side of the room, flying on a rock to avoid her.

"I TRUSTED YOU!" she was screaming. "WE TRUSTED YOU! WE GAVE YOU EVERYTHING AND YOU TREATED US LIKE DIRT!" She was really close now. I made two mud arms come up and grab her shoulders before she reached me. I stared at her in horror. What is going on?

"Finish her;" came Slade's cold voice. With effort, I made the arms force Raven back into the mud. Right before she went under, her eyes went back to their normal violet, and she looked terrified. And then, she went under. For a split second, I felt a hint of regret. But it didn't last. I looked down at her in satisfaction.

"Who's in control now?"
