Jaw set Beast Boy stalked down the rode. He had said he would be here. Where was he?
Suddenly a dark robed figure stepped out onto the road.
"You did well Madule. Leading us right to them was a brilliant plan."
Beast Boy squared his shoulders, and kept stalking right towards the creature, breathing hard.
"Do Well to This!" He shouted, pulling his fist back, and punching the figure, square in the hood where it's face was located
Instantly energy smashed him to the ground, and Beast Boy was surrounded by more hooded figures, that grabbed him by the arms, holding his head off the ground.
"That was not a wise thing to do Madule. And, leading us to them was indeed a brilliant act."
Beast Boy revolted. "I did no such a thing you bastard!"
"Of course Madule. Just like you didn't murder your own girlfriend." The hooded figure laughed mockingly.
"No.." Beast Boy wispered. The yell ripped from deep inside of him. "I didn't!"
"I can see you didn't change Madule.."
"You thought that you forcing me to carry out your shit would make me be more like you didn't you. Well, your wrong!"
"No Madule. You are like me. You just don't.. Realize it yet..
"I never have been.. And I NEVER WILL BE!" Beast Boy tried to lunge forward at the hooded figure again, but the figure simply lifted it's right hand, and spoke.
"Concedo Vehenimun."
Two words from the figure, and Beast Boy was on the ground rolling, clutching his chest, and crying out in pain.
The figure waited until Beast Boy was silent, and glided over to him.
Standing over Beast Boys limp form, the figure put it's hand a foot over his head.
Beast Boy felt himself succumbing to the power that this creature had over him.
"What do you want from me? You have already taken everything.."
"Ah, no Madule. The ones who call you Beast Boy.. "
"Don't hurt my friends!"
The figure smiled wickedly under it's hood.. "Yes, Madule. I knew you had it inside of you. A weak spot. Who knew?" The creature said each word slowly and effectually: "For the former Teen Titans. "
Beast Boy struggled to his knees. "Leave them out of this! THEY DID NOTHING!"
"I will take everything from you Madule."
"I have nothing to give you."
"You have them. You have... Raven.. "
"You touch her.." Beast Boy said, his voice lowering until it was barely audible, and his fist clenching tightly, drawing blood from his own palms.
"And you will what?" Asked the creature an amused smile on it's face. "Defeat the one who made you what you are?"
"I DO NOT WANT THIS! I never did. I hate it. I hate you."
"Hate is good Madule. Keep hating whatever you like. But know this, my child.."
The creature grasped Beast Boy by the chin and forced his head up.
"You. Are. Mine. All you power is mine. Andyour 'friends,' are most likely all dead right now."
Beast Boy couldn't believe it.. He wouldn't.
"Liar!" He yelled.
"Have I ever lied to you Madule?" The figure said in an amused tone.
"You lied to me in the first place. I don't believe you!"
The Figure let out a sigh, and turned away. "If you choose not to believe. So be it. I will be seeing you soon Madule. I have great plans for your future."
And then he was gone.
Raven awoke with a start. Roan was standing over her, sweat was on his forehead, and he was whispering her name.
Flinging her feet over the side of the bed, she stood.
"What is it?"
"Miss Raven, I promised Garfield I would keep you safe. That is a promise I 'tend to keep. You have to git. Now!"
Raven stared at him in confusion, sleep still clogging her mind.
"Miss Raven, I letcha sleep all this day, I thught that Garfiel' would be back by now.
He sayd thet if he dittin return, I should send ya on yur way. He tole me ta tell ya to git to 'Da Tower' whever that be. He say if he dint be back by new, it already behgun."
Raven thought threw the jumbled words he had just announced, and once she had figured out what he said, turned to him. "What? What had already began?"
"Dunno Miss Raven, he jes telld me to tell ye to git. Git to 'Da Tower.'
Raven shook her head.
"I am going to find him Roan."
"But Missy Raven, he telld me thet you would probbly say thet, he telld that you wont be ab'l to find him.
Raven took a deep breath, and let it sift through her teeth. She contemplated her options.
She probably should go back to the Tower, to tell the others what was going on.
She knew one thing.
Beast Boy was one of the few people with the capability to complete whatever task the Veihn had their minds set on.
They were going to use him for something.
Raven turned to Roan. "I understand now, and I must go warn my friends, But-. But what about you?"
Roan looked down. "Miss Raven, I will be all right. Jes go back to 'Da Tower' like Garfiel' said?
Raven nodded, and without realizing it tears were welling up in her eyes.
"Thank You Roan." She said, ducking her head in embarrassment.
He gave her a toothy grin. "You need not be thanking me Miss Raven, now go on, git."
Raven turned, and started for the door, taking one last look at the old man, she stepped outside
Pulling her hood over her head she levitated. She pictured Beast Boy's old happy go lucky face. His jokes that she had always thought were stupid, in a funny way. The Beast Boy that had begged and pleaded with her to play 'stank ball.' They had taken that Beast Boy. He was gone. But they wouldn't have the one that had returned to them. "Let's go." She said in monotone, as she soared through the air, feeling only the light rain pelting her face, as she tore through the air, and the wind ripping at her cloak.
A/N: R&R People. Oh, and also, while I was reading a person's fanfic, I came across a webbie address that she had on one of her A/N's. I checked it out, and it's basically a petition to couple Raven and Beast Boy in the fifth season (or in any season to come), or at least give them more air time together. I, for one, signed, so I think that if your reading this right now, YOU SHOULD SIGN AS WELL. I COMMAND YOU- I- I mean.. If you could sign that would be just lovely. Peaches and Cream. Here is the address: http/
note- I will be leaving this Saturday for a week and three days, but I am almost positive that I will update before then.
