A/N: I do not own the Teen Titans and I frankly have no idea if I really want to, hehe. This is a whole lot of work, please review in recognition of the hard work I've put in this piece. I hope you enjoy,

The Possession: Aftermath

Energy coursed through the craft's systems as it powered up its failsafe device. About ten dimdacs (a unit of time equal to about twelve years) earlier that failsafe device would have exploded with a savage force powerful enough to obliterate half of the planet. The blast was so powerful because the High Council felt that if a prisoner was to escape it may cause far more damage to the entire universe than just one planet. They finally realized their mistake when an entire planet was held hostage with one such device by a group of terrorists. After defusing that situation by assassinating the terrorists with their elite Hunters, who specialized with the Grabzillan Straight Blade……, they decreed a law against such failsafe devices.

In the recent past to find a sufficient failsafe research was done into the subject and yielded the Stacgon Disassociating Field Generator. This generator was bonded to the craft and linked into its systems. The effect it had upon the craft and its occupants was to destabilize their particles and break them down while keeping them catalogued in its memory. Then the unit transported the ship and those inside to the home world, Ragnark, where they would be reassembled and the situation would be analyzed. The reason this system was not used for all travel was its cost, its energy expenditure and…..its danger. Sometimes every particle would be perfectly aligned and everything would be right, other times it would result in terrifying monsters or simply horrid corpses. The lucky ones were reassembled improperly and died of organ failure. Another danger of this system is there was once a situation where while going back to Ragnark the Disassociating Field Generator system accidentally caused the supernova of a sun in a populated system. As the system and the particles it transported passed by the sun it disrupted the delicate and powerful fusion process the sun used, causing the destruction of that whole system. Extended and wide use of this system may lead to another disaster.

A recent addition that was included in the craft currently burrowed in the wreckage of Titan Tower was a feature that affected self aware species minds. The effect that it rendered was purging the minds of those within a certain radius of their capability to store what was currently in their short term memories in their long term memories. Essentially it made it so the past 20 to 40 minutes of their life didn't happen to them, in their memories that is.

Beast Boy did not witness the silent and violent destabilization of the craft. His back was turned as he held Raven in his arms; he was absorbed in the absolution that her embrace offered. The two interwoven forms of Raven and Beast Boy slumped over as a shockwave of force that was barely visible washed over them.

"I love you Raven…." Beast Boy whispered as he saw the previous events unfold in his mind. His eyes rolled up into his head as he surrendered to unconsciousness; he felt a surging sense of loss as the words he said to Raven were purged from his mind. "Please remember……" barely escaped his lips as he finally fell into the darkness before him. The wave of force moved outwards from where the craft was and affected each Titan in the same fashion. Their memories of all events happening after they awoke to investigate the noise were quickly and cleanly wiped from their minds.

Raven woke up feeling a weight on almost her entire body and she couldn't quite figure out what it was. She could smell a scent that she almost recognized but she couldn't quite reach a conclusion. One thing she was sure of though was that she liked it. Her arms were already loosely wrapped around what was on top of her but she pulled them taught and made more pressure between them. For a reason she couldn't remember she was laying on a hard cold floor but she didn't care; she was holding a warm and soft thing that had a scent that she could breathe for an eternity and never need anything else. She didn't know why she needed relief or comfort but she did, she realized as she moved her head up and rubbed her face on the warmth of what she was holding. She was so focused on the mystery of what or who was lying on top of her that she didn't notice for a while the pain in her body. Awareness of the damage to her form slowly crept into her consciousness as she held the thing and was comforted by it as she cringed from the pain. Propping her right foot on the ground she got enough leverage to switch positions with it and was now laying on top. She opened her eyes and was surprised to see that she was laying on Beast Boy; she was even more surprised that she didn't get up, she didn't want to. She just laid down on him once more and held onto him, feeling his warmth seep into her. What's the matter with me, she asked herself as she lied on top of Beast Boy, feeling things for him she had never consciously acknowledged existed.

Robin came to consciousness slowly as if rising from the depths of a black suffocating ocean. His entire body was aching and bruised as he mentally assessed the damage to his body. He had no idea what happened to him but he didn't need to know; he'd trained himself long ago to not dwell on why something happened, just that it did. As he did his mental checklist he became aware that someone was lying on top of him. He could almost tell who they were; he could smell their scent, one he'd thought about many times. The realization hit him like a ton of bricks (he hadn't yet ruled being hit by a ton of bricks out being the reason why he felt like he did) that Starfire was lying on top of him! His left hand felt like it had been hurt pretty badly and he began to stretch it, lightly clenching then relaxing it. He did this for a few moments while he thought about what exactly was going on when he noticed something.

"Friend Robin, what are you doing?" Starfire asked as she looked up, entrancing him with her amazing green eyes. Combined with the distraction her brilliant gaze offered as well as his injured body it took him a moment to realize what she was talking about. He glanced in horror at his left hand and found it with her chest resting upon it, yet it continued to lightly clench and then relax…….WHAT! Robin's mind screamed in terror and embarrassment as he finally removed his hand from her chest, amazed at how stupid he had been. Robin's eyes closed unconsciously as he remembered what it felt like….WHAT! his mind screamed as he tried to fight off the feelings overwhelming him. "I never told you to stop Robin," Starfire said as he battled with the memory, "I was simply asking what you were doing….." she trailed off as her eyes gazed at him. She unsteadily got to her feet and then gained her balance; she had only hit her head and wasn't hurt badly, by….whatever happened to them all. She leaned down and assisted Robin getting up. Both of them just then noticed the wreckage strewn about the surrounding area. After gawking at the damage they noticed they hadn't released the grip they had on each others hand but both continued to hold on, blushing madly. Holding hands they looked in unison over to where Raven and Beast Boy laid and noticed their position. Apparently they weren't the only ones drawn together by whatever ordeal they'd been through.

Raven felt the arms around her tighten as Beast Boy awoke and pulled her in tighter and closer. He breathed her scent in as he brought his face to her neck and rubbed his lips and face from below her ear to her shoulder, sending excited shivers down her body. Beast Boy moaned lightly into her neck as he ran his hands up and down her back, feeling her curves and pulling her to him. Consciousness came to him as he realized that it wasn't a dream; Raven was really lying on top of him!

"Raven, not that I'm complaining…..but why are you lying on top of me?" Beast Boy asked, never taking his lips from her neck and sending more shivers down her spine. As his lips moved on her neck he could feel them peck and kiss her neck, an irresistible urge he couldn't control, and he felt her shiver and her breath catch in reaction. Beast Boy levered himself up to a sitting position with surprising strength. He got up and helped Raven up as they both surveyed the surrounding destruction with wide eyed horror. They too kept holding hands after they'd finished standing.

Robin and Starfire had watched all this occur between Beast Boy and Raven and were not shocked at all when they kept holding hands as well. Knowing smiles formed on both couples faces at the sight of the other couple; they all knew the other two getting together was a long time coming.

"Where's Cy?" Beast Boy asked as he noticed the mechanical man was not present.

"I don't know, fan out and search Titans." Robin said as he resumed command and they began to search for their fallen comrade. They finally found him after about twenty minutes of searching and found him totally shut down. "Let's go get his backup power cells. I think that once we get Cyborg up and running again he may be able to get the cameras running and that may give us a clue about what happened here." Robin said as they uncovered Cyborg, brushing dust and debris off of him. There was a tight tension as they went to get the power cells, they all were very nervous about what had happened. What would the recordings reveal Slade's return, Trigon's resurrection, the attack of Blackfire, or maybe some primal beast escaping from within Beast Boy and attacking his beloved friends?
