Here it is! The next part of my story. It's been a while since I last updated, I've had major writers block, but I'm fine now. The creative juices are flowing

Chapter 14: The Plan

Beast Boy listened to the plan, nodding, but didn't really pay much attention. He felt so strange. It was like he was in two places at once, and technically, he was. His spirit was there in the warehouse, but his body was walking around somewhere outside, helping the Combiner.

He could feel everything the monster was feeling. He could feel his feet moving, and feel a monstrous roar escaping his throat, but when he looked down his feet were firmly planted on the ground, and he couldn't hear any roaring.

He looked back up at the group of Titans who were still discussing the plan. He looked over at Raven, who seemed to have noticed his discomfort and was looking at him comfortingly.

She looked at Robin, and seeing that he was telling Starfire her part of the plan right now, walked over to Beast Boy.

"It's an awkward feeling to get used to," Raven told him knowingly. "Hopefully we'll be back in our own bodies soon."

"Yeah," he replied. She looked at him sympathetically; she was more used to the feeling than he was. Most likely he felt like it was going to be like this forever. Surprising herself, she reached out for his hand. Her hand went right through his, and luckily he didn't seem to notice.

"Raven and Beast Boy, you two are going to need to go into the monster's mind and try to take control of the body," said Robin, turning his attention on the two looked at him.

"I'm not sure we can do that," replied Raven.

"Why not?" asked Robin, in a tone that said he didn't want to hear excuses.

"The Combiner used our worst qualities to create the monster. That means we both have to take control of our personal demons, except now the demons are stronger… just like our bodies," Raven explained.

"You must try," said Starfire, pleading. "If you do not, the Frightful Combiner will be victorious. That would not be very nice."

"Starfire's right. You have to at least try, or our plan won't work," added Robin, watching them closely.

Rave still looked doubtful.

"It's OK," said Beast Boy softly. Raven looked at him and they made eye contact. "We can do it together."

Raven found herself getting lost in his green eyes. They held so much fear, comfort, sincerity and… and something else she didn't recognize, but decided it seemed like a good thing.

"Good," cut in Robin, pulling her attention away from Beast Boy. "Everyone knows what they're doing?"

Everyone nodded and Robin smiled a bit.

"Great. Titans, GO!"

Cyborg and Alice ran towards the door that led up to the house. Starfire grabbed Robin's hands and flew them both in the direction of the monster.

Raven flew up a bit, but stopped and turned around when she noticed that Beast Boy hadn't moved. His face was scrunched up in concentration.

"Raven, I can't change into any animals!" Beast Boy told her, trying to hold down his panic.

Raven nodded knowingly.

"You're powers were in your body. You won't be able to change into anything until you're back in your body."

"But then how do I fly? How am I supposed to get there?" a look of confusion spread across his face.

"Just close your eyes," she told him, and he did as he was told. "Now imagine your body lifting up in the air. Imagine losing all the weight in your body and floating around."

"This is pointless, nothing is happening," complained Beast Boy, opening his eyes. Raven raised an eyebrow. Beast Boy looked down and noticed that he was hovering at least five feet off the ground. His eyes widened and he smiled. He leaned forward a bit, and floated closer to Raven.

"You're doing well," she told him. He watched her mouth carefully and could tell she was suppressing a smile.

"Don't," he commanded. She looked at him questioningly. "Don't try to hide your smile, it's too pretty to hide."

She blushed and smiled a bit, but almost instantly the blush died and her face became emotionless again. She turned away and started flying upwards and in the direction of the monster.

"Come on, we need to go," she told him.

Beast Boy looked at her in confusion, wondering what he had done wrong, but followed her silently.

Cyborg raced down the street in the T-Car. He was going way faster than the speed limit allowed, but a combination of his good driving skills and people moving out of the way when they recognized the car prevented them from getting into any accidents.

Alice stared ahead, not even blinking at the blurring scenery.

It wasn't long before they stopped in front of a familiar building. It was the science laboratory. They jumped out of the car and ran into the building. They ran up one set of stairs and into a lab room.

"OK, what do you need?" asked Cyborg, looking at the shelves of medicines and chemicals.

Alice looked around and quickly found what she was looking for. Picking up the bottles, she turned and they both ran back to the car.

"Why do we need those anyway?" asked Cyborg as he drove in the direction of downtown Jump City. "They other monsters changed back just from the glass."

"If we don't inject this into them right after they change back from the glass… they won't make it," replied Alice, looking down at the container and syringe in her hand.

"I thought the dog and bear cub survived, though. They weren't there when we left," Cyborg glanced at her quickly before looking back at the road.

"Even if they were fine for a few hours, they won't last that long. There genetic structure has already been tampered with to merge them… their bodies wouldn't be able to handle it. They'll, for lack of better term, explode," her face mirrored Cyborg look of fear and disgust.

"How is that stuff supposed to prevent that?" asked Cyborg doubtfully. "You can find it in any science lab, it's nothing special," he pointed at the glass container in her hand.

"Not yet," she replied, pulling a small vile of clear liquid from her pocket. "Once I add some of Frank's test serum to it, presumably, it will keep them together."

Cyborg still looked doubtful.

"How can we be sure?" he asked the girl.

"We can't, you're just going to have to trust me. I read his research and I have enough science knowledge that I figured it out," she told him. "I've been reading Frank's books since I was seven," she added, noticing Cyborg's questioning look.

Cyborg nodded and looked back at the road. By now, it wasn't hard to figure out where they were going. They just had to follow the path of destruction and terror.

Robin and Starfire caught up to the monster quickly.

The Frightful Combiner had brought the monster downtown to reek a bit of havoc before going to City Hall to give his demands. Better that he give them a taste of what the monster could do before threatening them with it.

Starfire and Robin dodged a car that was flying towards them, twenty feet above the ground.

The monster itself was about 10 feet tall, but seemed bigger since it was now hovering above the street. It used its dark powers to throw cars and every once in a while it changed into roaring animals for a split second, to scare away the people foolish enough to stand still around it.

Starfire flew towards the monster's back and let go of Robin when they reached it. The monster turned around when it felt Robin's weight of its back and reached back with one of its clawed paws. Robin dodged the paw, but didn't fight back. He was just a distraction until Raven and Beast Boy took control of its mind.

While Robin kept the monster busy, Starfire flew around. She helped people who had gotten trapped under the cars and mailboxes that the monster had thrown around. She also carried the injured bystanders out of danger.

Raven and Beast Boy arrived soon after. They looked at the scene around them before Raven motioned for Beast Boy to follow her.

They flew towards the monster, which was no longer struggling with Robin, but was surrounded by smoke from one of Robin's smoke bombs.

Raven led Beast Boy until they were both standing right in front of the monster. Beast Boy felt almost like his sprit body was being tugged towards the monster… his real body. He resisted the urge with difficulty, but when he looked at Raven he saw that she seemed to be resisting it too.

"Close your eyes," directed Raven, taking a meditative position. Beast Boy followed her lead. "Concentrate on your body. Don't let yourself be pulled towards it yet though, or else you won't be in control at all."

Beast Boy followed her orders determinedly. When he pictured his body in his mind, the tug felt almost impossible to resist, but somehow he prevented it. After a while he felt a strange sensation flow through his body. It felt like he was immune to anything. The pull continued, but not as strong.

"Now let yourself be pulled in," commanded Raven. Beast Boy gave into the tugging and felt himself fly into the monster's body. He opened his eyes and was met by complete darkness.

Hope you enjoyed this chapter. I'm not sure when I'll be able to update again, I've been getting a lot of homework already this year, but I'll try to update as soonasI can... or feel like it.
