Disclaimer: I don't own Teen Titans, but I got a chance to interview Scorpio for you crazed fans! Corny, I know. But I think it was enjoyable. I had to take her out of the fic for a while, so you guys owe me.

Me: So, Scorpio--may I call you Scorpio? Or do you prefer Rella?
Scorpio: Scorpio's fine.

Me: Right. Scorpio, OK. So, in the fic, Beast Boy has a huge crush on you, and well... a lot of peeps think it's the curse. Is it?

Scorpio: -moving uncomfortably- Um...That's...kind of personal. I don't really know if he does or not. Not yet anyway. Is that a problem?

Me: NO! NO! Of course not, I'm sure many of our fic's boy fans have a crush on you. Isn't that right, boy fans?

Boy fans: -blush- Err...

Scorpio: -moving uncomfortably again- Can I leave now?

Me: Anyway, so you come from Saphiria, is that correct?

Scorpio: Well you did make the fic, I suppose you should know.

Me: I don't remember making you so sassy.

Scorpio: -eye roll- Can I please leave?

Me: OK, so, Cyborg doesn't really do much in the fic, right? Can you explain your relationship with Cyborg?

Scorpio: Yeah...he's fine. Really friendly. He just teases BB too much, for stupid reasons too.

Me: I see. And Raven. It is true that you wanted to go to Azerath. Did she say anything about that?

Scorpio: What? That was in my journal. How would Raven now something like--

Me: WELL! OK, that's the end of today's interview...

Scorpio: But what about my journal--

Me: On to the next chapter!

Chapter 19: Truths Untold

He looked about him, his muscles tence and his fists clenched, prepared to fight whatever would come his way. But there was no one, no one in the dark hallways, no one within seeing range...

But something caught his eye in the end of the hallway. He turned slowly, his heart racing, only to find...

Scorpio, smothing an orange cloak with yellow sleeves down her hips, sighing slightly. He wanted to run to her, to hold her, to tell her that everything would be OK, to be her hero.

But he was not crazy.

He transformed into a cat and started running towards her as quietly as he could, his green paws padding the carpet below him. When he was about a foot away from him he transformed back into a human, smiling broadly and searching her face.

Since when were her eyes blue? He thought to himself. And since when did she had that smirk on her face--

He didn't have time to think. "Beast Boy!" She cried in whisper, and then without warning swung her arms around his neck, holding his body close to hers.

He was shocked, but it had always been his dream to have her love him, at least...since she had come. He accepted the hug, holding her a bit under her shoulders so she wouldn't get the wrong idea. He was surprised at her cocky mood, her open and intense personality, and the way she was holding and looking at him...

She let go, not blushing at all, watching what Beast Boy would do next. He moved uncomfortably under her eyes, what was she expecting? More?

"I missed you," she said in whisper again, her hands still on his shoulders. She moved closer to him, her body cold; resting her head on his chest. She looked up. "Did you miss me?"

He could feel his face flare in red and pink. Of course he had missed her, but not this her. What happened to the shy, beautiful, emotional girl? Where was she? And who was this open imposter who hadn't blushed once since their embrace? Or said anything of escape?

"Y-yea---yeah I m-missed you," he stammered. "I-I m-missed you a l-lot..." Shame rattled his spine. This was not Scorpio. Not the Scorpio he knew and missed.

"That's good," she said, smirking as she trailed her fingers off of his chest. "Then kiss me."

"Umm...what?"

"Ki--" Something cold landed on her head, something like...water? A large drop of water had fallen down and splashed her head, cold and unforgiving as it went down into her eyes. She bent over a little bit, wiping her eyes and blinking them a few times, moving from under the leak.

She opened her eyes again and looked at Beast Boy, his whole body blushed in red. And, as he noticed, her eyes had returned their usual murky dark black color, like the fur of a camel, iris viens stringed together and held tight with mystery. Her face went hot, realizing that she had not yet fully recovered from her scorpion transformation since Beast Boy's arrival, and she remembered everything that had just happened.

She moved away from him, her face growing reder by the minute. "Oh..um...Beast Boy...I'm so sorry, I'm really, really sorry. I...seriously I'm really sorry...Oh God..." she whispered, shaking her head, waiting. Beast Boy had read about Saphiria and he had known what she was under, a curse of her own. It was not she whom had offered the kiss, not the human soul that occupied her and caused her to be so wonderful, but the Scorpion soul who longed for all of the 8th house...

"I'm really, really, really sorry, Beast Boy," she said again, her face not losing its scarlet color, her eyes staring at the ground. "I really didn't mean to...uhm...make you...to touch...er..."

"It's OK, really," he said, feeling the red of his cheeks die down. "I'm just glad I found you here. We have to get out." He felt a calm rush come over him. They would finally be free. She would finally be back with him at the Tower.

She shook her head. "Not yet. I have to find Jet. We have to bring him with us."

Jet? JET! He was the one whom had saved her, not that bastard. And what about all of the dreams? The way he looked at her, the biting kiss he had laid on her neck, her blood oozing down from his touch, her eyes pleading him no more. "What?" He said, speaking his mind. "Why don't we just get out of here?"

-----------xXx---------

The Titans were now infront of a large tin box, Cyborg complaining about the frequency of the inside.

"What are we going to do, Robin? Stand her and wait for this frequency to jam my wires? Agh!" Cyrbog clenched his fists. "We need a plan."

"I have a plan, Cyborg," Robin told him over his mouth piece. "Raven will take me and Starfire in, and you'll drive the T-sub back out to the harbor. When you get my signal, come down and get us."

Cyborg smiled dispite his pain. "Sounds good, man. Just hurry it up!"

Raven nodded and a black aura covered the threesome, then moved inside the tin box. Cyborg smiled to himself and drove the T-sub out of the water.

------------xXx-----------

"It's a very long story, Beast Boy. And we don't have time. It's crucial that we get him. He's part of Slade's plan to destroy the city." Scorpio was still blushing, despite the fact that Beast Boy was calm and that nothing else had happed since her Scorpion soul had embraced him. That was Scorpio, and Beast Boy smiled to himself.

"Do you know where he is?" He asked her, looking around him.

"No, I don't. Last I remember he was chasing me down the hallway, and after that...nothing..."

Beast Boy felt his muscles tence. He was chasing her... "He was chasing you? And you got away? That's great! You must be really fast--"

" No...no...see that's why I...I had to transform...to get out of the cellar...and he was chasing a red scorpion on a red carpet..." she smiled and blushed at the memory of leaving her clothes behind her. "That's why I'm wearing this, because--" she stopped. "Well...uhm...nevermind. We just need to find him."

Beast Boy nodded. "Any chance you can transform again? 2 small scorpions are better than 2 clumsy humans." He smiled at her, happy she was back. But he knew she couldn't.

"I can't," she answered coldly. "I just...I can't do it twice in one day and it's...very difficult for me to change. It's easy for you though. If you can transform into something small and I can call the Titans from here, we'll be even. I just need your communicator"

He reached in his pocket and gave it to her. "Wish me luck."

"Good luck," she said in her velvet whisper. "And be careful. Think small."

He nodded and transformed into a chipmunk, running around the opposite corner. Scorpio opened the flap of the communicator and called Robin.

-----------xXx-------------

The black aura lifted from Starfire and Robin, both of them squinting at the heavy light of the bulbs and candles. There were in a large, concrete room, no windows or anything, but plenty of bulbs.

A ring came from Robin's pocket and he grabbed the communicator from his belt. Scorpio showed up on the screen.

"Scorpio!" Robin said. "Scorpio, can you hear me? Where are you?"

"I can hear you, and I don't know where I am. Where are you?" Scorpio's face blurred on the screen, probably a result from the high frequency.

"Scorpio! Scorpio!" Robin shouted at the communicator as he watched the screen go black. He flipped the cover back on and shook his head. The last words he had heard were "Slade" and "Beast Boy".

He turned to Raven and Starfire, who had looks of worry on their faces.

"Please...our friend Scorpio is...OK?" Starfire asked crossly. "She is unharmed?"

"I don't know," Robin offered. "But the signal was coming from in here, the map showed it. Wherever Scorpio is, we at least know that she is in here." Robin looked at the communicator again. "But we won't be able to use these." He put the communicator away in his pocket. "Let's go."
