-Well, another day another chapter. I just finished watching "Aftershock Part 1 not yet 2. Don't ask why, and don't ask where I got Aftershock Part 1 either". I'm a little amazed that my other story, "Two Birds..." story has almost the exact plotline as Aftershock Part 1. Well, concerning the Terra arch that is. All the expected reaction to Terra's betrayal was there. Even Beast Boy defending her. Though my version, he is a little more, emotional I guess, and my treatment of Terra isn't as cruel. Still, seems the writers of the show had the same idea as me concerning Terra.
-As for Starfire, my intention wasn't to make her, unable to take care of herself. You need to remember that the last image that Robin and Cyborg saw was her attacking the somewhat indestructible Pyramid Head. Though I probably made her, appear too defenseless it was not my intention to make her that way. The thing was, I was thinking that since she didn't have to face the kind of violence and horror that is, Silent Hill, in real life, her reaction is, as is (in a way I guess, like that "Fear Itself", the episode where Raven got scared. It is also where I based most of Starfire's reaction in this story).
-Speaking of violence...the irony about this story and "Dangerous Love Affair" is, DLA is MORE detailed and violent then this story. Well, maybe more detailed, hence its R rating and this story's PG-13 rating.
-Oh yeah, and I recently came across a website that shows an official information book (translated from the original Japanese) about Silent Hill, its past and the characters involved. Oh yeah, and in a way, it DOES contain spoilers for this story if you want to know who Samael is, or Claudia Wolf that I will eventually tell you in this story (if you don't want to wait, you can check out the site. The website is on my profile. Also check out SH4Victim Files (if you want to be spoiled about Silent Hill 4: The Room). There, you could see where Pyramid Head came from.
-As for Claudia Wolf and Wolf's Rain...I actually didn't realize that at first. What an amazing coincidence. But nope, no connection to Wolf's Rain whatsoever.
-Also, I'm writing this chapter at the same time I'm writing the chapter 7 for "Two Birds...Part 2". Not something I normally do. I know, not exactly info you need to know, but...since I'm telling you, I will also tell you my reason. I want to get these two chapters out of the way, so that I can work on Chapter 3 of my Eva fic. That story needs a major shot of originality that it currently doesn't have (my plan is to follow the official episodes to a point, when it becomes EXTREMELY different. Problem is, I think I followed the official story a little TOO much). Since I have these two in the pipeline first, I'm going to begin them first too.
-Well, after another long author notes rant, sorry again. On with, I hope is an even longer chapter...
Alternate Brookhaven HospitalIts bad enough that the hallways are completely dark without the aid of a flashlight. Now they have to deal with this. Terra and Beast Boy simply blinked in disbelief as they see, with the help of Beast Boy's flashlight, they could see the corroded walls, and a hallway covered in blood.
Terra gulped. "I've...never seen something this horrible before! I mean, I've seen in horror movies and stuff, but not in real life!"
Hearing this, Beast Boy turned to Terra. "This is the first time you've been to the 'other world' isn't it?"
"The 'other world' Beast Boy?" Terra started to shake.
Beast Boy nodded. "Yeah. The world we just left, that would be the more normal world. And let me tell you, if you thought those monsters and stuff out there was bad, it is waaaay worse here."
Terra gulped.
Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. Beast Boy's radio filled the room.
Beast Boy and Terra jumped. Beast Boy lowered the volume of his radio. "Heh, sorry." He then changed into a tiger ready to pounce on anything that was coming their way.
Terra took a sort of karate stance at whatever was approaching them.
They see nothing.
Yet the static was inching closer and closer.
Beast Boy looked from side to side, then behind him. He still saw nothing. "What gives?" That was when he noticed something odd. 'Did I just see...' Beast Boy winced as he tires to get a better look at what was approaching them. There seemed to be some sort of distortion. Ghost maybe? 'Oh man, I hope it isn't that.' No, not exactly. More like, an image distortion like it was cloaked. Cloaked. Beast Boy's eyes widen in terror. "They're invisible!" Beast Boy changed into a dog. "Maybe if I..." He sniffs and then changes back into a tiger. His mouth puffs up, before swallowing whatever content threatened to be unleashed in his mouth. He turned greener then usual. "All I can smell is blood."
Terra has her mouth wide open. She stared at the near empty hallway in front of her as, whatever they are, came closer and closer.
"Ehhh." Like a baby's cry, the monster sounded.
From time to time, the distorted image seemed almost whole. From what Beast Boy and Terra could gather from what is approaching them, they appear to be small children. In their hands, there appears to be some sort of device. Like...a knife.
Terra brought her hands in front of her as she used her power to summon...wait, nothing happened. Terra's determination faded as realization hits her. She looked down at the grated floor and saw only blackness below. "There's nothing rocky here. My powers are useless!"
Beast Boy started to sweat. "Oh no!" Suddenly, he sees one of the creatures near Terra. "Terra, get on!" Beast Boy is still in his tiger form.
Terra turned to Beast Boy for a second, then hops on his back. One of the creatures made a slice at Terra. Lucky for her, she escaped on Beast Boy's back, unhurt.
Beast Boy turned around and knocked the invisible monster to the ground. With full claws, he spun around and clawed another one. He clawed another one behind him. Blood, or what he thinks is blood, splashes on the wall. But the more then attacks, the more these kinds of monsters approach him.
Terra, seemingly defenseless, can only watch as more and more invisible baby monsters approached them with what seems to be an endless stream. "Beast Boy."
"Stay on my back Terra. I won't lose you again!" Beast Boy continued to slash at the endless stream of monsters. 'Even if it is the last thing I do.'
Streets of Silent HillRobin narrowed his eyes. "What do you mean by paradise Claudia?"
"You are all witnesses." Claudia continued in her neutral tone. "This world is simply the beginning. A world, devoid of man!"
"Hey, what's wrong with men? Can't get a date?" Cyborg got in her face.
"Um Cyborg, I think what she meant is a world without any humans." Though Robin nearly chuckled at Cyborg's mistake. But Robin instantly stopped himself from doing that. 'If this is her version of paradise, that must mean that SHE is somehow involved in all of this.'
Cyborg blinked in embarrassment. "Oh, um...I knew that. I was just testing you."
"It doesn't matter." Claudia stopped herself as if to realize something. "While this might not be the time when it is fully unleashed, it is the beginning."
"Beginning? Beginning of what? Paradise? What?!" Robin was getting annoyed with Claudia's riddles.
Claudia seemingly ignored Robin's question. "The 'Hand of God' is at work here. With Raven guiding it to the ultimate conclusion. She may not be willing, but in the end, she will fulfill her destiny." Claudia turns and starts to walk away.
"Raven? Hand of God? Destiny? What destiny?" Robin stormed at the disappearing woman. "What the heck is going on here!" Claudia disappears in the mist in front of him.
"You know, I'm starting to regret not blowing her away with the shotgun." Cyborg walked up next to Robin, who seems ready to take on anything that comes his way now.
"That Claudia woman knows more then she is letting on." Robin looked ahead into the foggy streets. "But right now, I want to get to Starfire. While I'm certain she could handle most monsters in there, if that Pyramid Headed freak shows up again, she is going to need all the help he can get."
Cyborg nodded. "Sooner the better."
Brookhaven Hospital"Take that!" Starfire kicked the nurse monster to the side. "And that!" She kicked the monster in the head, decapitating it. Starfire looked at the mess she made. "They are just evil monsters. Monsters with no feelings. I should not be concerned with their safety."
Loud moans sounded from the distance. Her radio goes crazy.
"And these monsters keep coming!" Starfire stepped back. She again used her powers to light the hallway. 'Have to get away, have to get away.' With one arm in front of her as a light source, Starfire flew in the opposite direction until she hits the double doors. She banged at the doors, but to no avail. Whatever evil consumed this place doesn't seem to want Starfire out of it. She frantically looked around the darkened hospital. The monster nurses and doctors kept coming closer and closer. "There must be a way out!" She spotted the stairs leading up to the second floor. She flew towards the stairs at maximum speed.
Once there, Starfire looked around. She is in another darkened room. "Do they not have lights in this place?" As she looks up, more monster nurses approached her. "Eek!" She blasted the nurses back. She prepared another strong starbolt and released it. Boom. Another set of monster nurses and doctors are destroyed. But following right behind them is another set of nurses and doctor monsters. "I can keep doing this. There must be a safe place for hiding in this horrible place." Though somehow, the word safe, and this place doesn't seem to match. But there is no harm in trying. Well, okay, maybe there is some harm in trying, but given the circumstances, it is better then attacking wave after wave of monsters. Looked at the hallway. On each side are doorways. 'One must be monster free.' If not, she could just blow them away she suppose. 'But I have never killed so many beings before!' Especially when it is not for food. Somehow animals for food, isn't the same as these monsters. Especially since many of these monsters, appear to once be...human. The nurses, the doctors, and the monsters that she fought in the streets of Silent Hill, they all seemed like they were once normal people. And the babies, the babies are the worst. Starfire shuddered at that thought. 'Who can be so cruel to corrupt beings too young to understand?' While on Tameran, her species had many enemies to battle she herself was not involved in actually fighting them. And while she tried to reason with herself that these monsters deserve to be killed, it still bothered her. The very thought did not sit well with her. Though what it had to do with sitting, she had no idea. But ignoring that, if it was the only way to survive was to kill a Tameranian shipload of monsters, so be it.
She tried the first door on the right. Locked. She tried the second one, locks. Next to her, the monster nurses and doctors are dangerously close to her. "Grrrrrrrr." She sliced the monsters in front of her. Unfortunately, it did not kill them as a few of the monsters, some sliced diagonally, all continued their pursuit towards Starfire.
Before they could reach her, Starfire tried another door. This one opened. She quickly entered, and slammed the door behind her. She sighs in relief. "Phew. I believe I am safe from..."
She looked at the room. There are beds on both sides of the room. Suddenly, as if on cue, creatures all began to moan. They also got up from their position. These monsters though, from what little light there was, they seem to have VERY massive claws and teeth.
"...damage." Starfire finishes.
Alternate Brookhaven HospitalBeast Boy slashed at the monsters. Wave after wave, after wave, all came towards him. Beast Boy's arms and legs are full of scratches. Trickles of blood are coming out of the wounds.
"Stay back!" He sliced another monster. "Ahhhhhh." But another one stabs him with whatever object he is using.
Terra was terrified. "Beast Boy. I'm going to..."
"NO! I'm going to protect you. No matter what...Aggggh." Another monster stabbed Beast Boy. Beast Boy grimaced in pain.
"I can't just let you be hurt." Terra's eyes started to water.
"And I can't let you sacrifice yourself for me either!" Beast Boy continued to whack invisible monster babies away. "At least I can still fight back."
"I am not a weak girl you know!" Terra yelled at Beast Boy. "I can take on a few."
"No Terra!" Beast Boy screamed back as he continued to swat baby monsters back. "Not while I..." Another monster slashed at Beast Boy. "Ahhhhh."
"Beast Boy." Terra saddened even more.
A black power engulfed the area. Tons of tiny screams engulfed the hallway, before everything fell silent. Even Beast Boy's radio stopped sounding.
Beast Boy simply blinked. "Huh?" Then realization hits him. "Black power."
A shadow started approaching Beast Boy. "Need a little help there Beast Boy?"
His smile was getting bigger and bigger with each second. "RAVEN!"
Brookhaven HospitalRobin slammed his foot on the door. "What's with these doors? Are they made of two ton steel of something?"
Cyborg used his sonic cannon on the door's window. The window shatters. "Well, at least the windows can still shatter. Though that doesn't help much when the window doesn't even fit my hand."
Robin nodded. "There must be another way in."
The door creaked open.
Robin and Cyborg stared at the opening door. "Huh?" They said in unison. A big question mark appeared above their heads.
After a few seconds of being stunned by the new revelation, they both snapped back to reality. Robin scratched his head. "Okay. Guess we can enter now."
Robin and Cyborg entered the room. Well, after Robin SLAMED the door open. Robin took out his Bo Staff out and elongated it for effect. Cyborg followed with his sonic cannon ready. Cyborg has the shotgun to kill monsters. But since Starfire is somewhere in the building, Cyborg didn't want to take his chance and accidentally hurt Starfire.
Both Cyborg and Robin scanned the room. They saw the reception area in front of them. To the right, with the help of Cyborg's mini-flashlight, they see the pharmacy. To the left, they saw the director's office. So far, no monsters are in sight. And luckily, their radios are not sounding, yet. They looked from side to side. Then they decided to take the left hallway. Down that hallway, they looked from left and right. They first checked the Director's Room. They find a normal office. Desk, papers, but nothing that catches their eyes as important. Second, they try the meeting room door. Locked. Now, on to the bathrooms that was next to the meeting room. First bathroom the go to was the woman's bathroom. POW. Robin kicked the door open.
Cyborg rubbed his head. He whispered to Robin. "Ummmm...I know its dangerous and all but, could you just..."
"Save it until we get to Starfire." Robin frowned at Cyborg. Cyborg decided he should keep his mouth shut for now. After that little confrontation, Robin stared into the bathroom. "Watch out, there could be monsters here." He stepped into the bathroom. Each step echoes through the tiled bathroom. If there are monsters here, then the radio isn't telling them. They check each stall. Nothing. After coming to the last stall, both decided to head back. "Starfire's not here."
Now to the men's bathroom. Cyborg decided to open the door first. The radios go crazy. Some sort of monster with long claws came running towards them. Cyborg blasted the monster back to the ground. The monster, momentarily stunned, got right back up. Cyborg takes his shotgun out ready to blast it, when Robin came in and jumped kick the monster. "Idiot!"
Robin started bashing the monster on the wall. Broken mirrors and tile fell to the floor. Water started squirting out of the destroyed sinks. Robin took his Bo Staff and bashed the monster's head. The monster retaliated and sliced the Bo Staff in half. Undeterred, Robin elongated the Bo Staff again to its full length, and continued to bash the monster on the side. Once the monster was on the ground, he bashed the monster's head with his foot until the sound from his radio dissipates. Robin panted as he looked at the work he just did.
Cyborg walked up to Robin. "Hey Robin! I didn't decide to take this shotgun just so YOU can get in front of it. I could've blasted your ass by mistake!"
"Well I guess you should be careful." Robin didn't like the tone of Cyborg's voice.
"Be careful? I am being careful. It's YOU that should be careful!" A vein seemed to be popping from Cyborg's head.
"Me be careful?" Now it seemed Robin's vein was popping. "There was a monster, there was a threat. I took care of it!"
"Yeah since you apparently wanted all the glory!" Cyborg got his face even closer to Robins.
"Glory? From what? Are there any witnesses here? I'm doing this so that I can survive!" Robin got even closer to Cyborg. In fact, their faces were touching. Robin pushed into Cyborg's face and vice versa.
"Same here pal!" Cyborg was now pushing Robin's face back. "I'm also doing this for my friends. Except I can't do that if you are in front of me with a DANGEROUS WEAPON! Unless you want to take yourself off that list!"
Both growled at each other.
"Grrrrrrrrr." Robin and Cyborg pushed each other off.
"This isn't helping." Robin finally returned to a voice of neutrality. "We can't be fighting over this. Not now, and not here."
Cyborg nodded.Their radios go crazy as loud moans filled the hospital.
"Just stay out of my way and there shouldn't be any problems." Cyborg readied his shotgun.
"Just watch yourself, and know who you are targeting." Robin got out and prepared for the onslaught coming at them.
Alternate Brookhaven Hospital"Raven!" Beast Boy hugged Raven. "Where have you been? We've all been looking for you!"
"I've been around." Raven took her hood off for the moment. Raven noticed Beast Boy's condition. "Beast Boy, here, let me help you." She took out a stone and brought it close to Beast Boy.
The wounds on Beast Boy all started to disappear. "Wow, what is that thing?"
"It's a healing stone." Raven noticed Beast Boy was about to speak, but stopped him. "And don't ask how it works, where I got it, or anything. Just accept it as it is." 'Too bad I didn't find this until after I helped Starfire. Still, Starfire should be fine since the wound she had wasn't major.' Raven mentally added.
Terra walked up behind Beast Boy.
"Oh, and as you can see, Terra is here!" Beast Boy beamed as he gestures towards Terra.
Terra and Raven stared at each other.
Beast Boy's smile disappeared for a second, before returning. "Ummm...aren't you going to like, high five each other or something? Hehehe. I mean...its Terra..."
"Hello traitor." Raven looked at Terra coldly.
Beast Boys eyes went wide in disbelief.
"Witch." Terra stared back at Raven, equally coldly.
"Ummmm...Raven, hello!" Beast Boy, runs out, and gets a blackboard (where, I don't know. He just gets it). "Don't you remember..." Beast Boy quickly drew a volcano, Slade, Terra's suit, robots, Terra, stoned Terra, the other Titans, the plaque, and Slade in lava.
Terra and Raven continued to stare at each other. Seemingly ignoring Beast Boy.
"...you see, Terra did betray us. But it was because of this guy..." Beast Boy points to Slade. "And yes, she...sort of choose to betray us. But still, yeah she sent all these millions of robots, and yeah she sorta kicked our butts, but that was all in the past. After all, she was controlled by this guy!" He points to Slade again. "With this suit." He points to the suit, which he labeled Evil mind controlling suit. "It took a lot out of her, she fought against Slade in the end." The Slade in the lava is labeled Good Riddance. "Fought against that suit. Now it did create a volcano but..."
Raven decided to stop Beast Boy's rambling. "I know what happened Beast Boy." She continued to stare at Terra.
"But she isn't a traitor. Not anymore." Beast Boy seemed lost at Raven's reaction.
After a few more seconds of silence, Terra decided to break it. "I guess you believe I belong in this place."
Oddly, Raven's expression seemed to soften a bit. "I admit I still don't exactly trust you yet. Even with your sacrificial heroics." She paused a bit before continuing. "Also, I would be lying to you if I said I was surprised to see you here. However, you, or most people do not belong here." She turned towards the darkened hallway. "I will help get both of you out of here."
Beast Boy beamed. "Thanks Raven!" Beast Boy was about to hug Raven again.
Raven brought her hand in front of Beast Boy. "One time is enough Beast Boy."
"Oh, hehehe." Beast Boy scratched the back of his head, before something that Raven said, kind of bothered him. "Wait a minute, what do you mean that you weren't surprised that Terra is here?"
"I might explain later." Raven seemed to be trying to form a dimensional portal. She appeared to be struggling. "Damn! To much interference here. Must be a boss monster in the area."
"Boss monster?" Beast Boy gulped. "I don't know what this has to deal with you unable to do what you were just doing. But whatever you were just doing must have been a good thing, and this boss monster interfering and all, isn't a good thing."
"It isn't good." Raven shook her head. "I was trying to form a dimensional portal back to the normal Silent Hill, but because of the telekinetic power emanating from this monster, I can't do it. But with my help, you and Terra, we could all join up and destroy this monster."
"Ummm...Raven..." Raven looked at Terra. "Ummm...about my powers...you see..."
"Here, use this." Raven handed Terra a pipe.
"A pipe?" Terra looked at it. "This is all I get to fight with, a pipe?"
A vein seemed to be popping out of Raven's head. "It isn't like I had time to look for a better weapon. Besides if you wanted to, you could've used your bare fist. Now follow me if you want to live." Raven continued in the darkened hallway of the alternate Brookhaven Hospital.
Terra and Beast Boy looked at each other for a second, then back at the now retreating figure of Raven. Moans sounded behind them. Both decided that they should follow Raven, and quickly since she seemed to be a rush.
Brookhaven HospitalRobin and Cyborg both slammed their fist at incoming monster nurses before they could slash at them. Cyborg blasted an incoming monster nurse with the shotgun. The monster doctor lost half of his head before falling to the floor. He continued to twitch while he is on the ground. Cyborg stomped on the monster. A crunching sound is heard throughout the darkened hallway.
Robin wiped some sweat off his brow. "Once this is over, I'm going to take a nice loooooonnnng bath."
Cyborg sighed in relief. "When this is over, I'm am never going to watch another horror movie."
They heard what sounded like an explosions.
Robin and Cyborg stared at each other. "That must be Starfire. Come on hurry! It sounds like she might need help!" Robin and Cyborg started racing up the stairs. Cyborg reached the second floor where the sound seemed to be emanating.
A flash dropped Cyborg to the ground.
"Ehhhh." A monster doctor nearly slashed Cyborg's eyes (well, maybe just his human eye) out. With Cyborg on the ground, the doctor tripped on him and fell.
"Ahhh." Cyborg pushed the monster back up. The monster fell back. As soon as Cyborg got up, the monster follows suit.
Bam! Robin kicked the monster down again using the Bo Staff as leverage. He took out a birdorang and started bashing the monster in the head continuously. Finally, the monster seemed dead.
Cyborg scratched his head. "I guess I should be thanking you."
More explosions and more sounds came from a nearby room.
"Don't thank me yet. We still to help Starfire!" Robin and Cyborg all headed to Examination Room 4.
Examination Room 4Starfire ducked as she sensed a massive bed heading towards her. She blasted in the direction of where the monster was. The monsters appeared to be huge hairy bearish monsters. Though the face looked quite human. Too human in Starfire's eyes, and they have huge claws on both arms. And I do mean huge.
A huge claw slashed some cabinets above Starfire. Starfire kicked the first monster in front of her, and quickly flew past him underneath. As that one fell, the second one slammed its body into Starfire. Lucky for Starfire, its massive claws hit the wall behind her. Unfortunately, she is still pinned by the monster. Starfire powered her eyes and blasted the monster. The monster now sports a hole in his throat. Starfire kicked the monster off of her. She was about to move forward when a bed came screaming towards her. "Eek." She sank instantly as the bed crashed above her.
Another massive claw, this time, towards the ground where Starfire is at, came at near lightning speed. With quick reflexes, Starfire instantly got out of the way. She continued to blasted the forth monster with starbolts. This stunned it for a while. Starfire decided to power up and powerful starbolt when the first monster jumps up. She blasted the half-powerful starbolt at the monster, sending it back again. Blood gushed out of that monster's newly created wound. Wham! The fourth monster recovered from Starfire's starbolt attack, and slammed Starfire into a nearby wall. Starfire landed with a thud. She shook her head. The monster was quickly coming back. This time, the massive claw was coming straight at Starfire's chest. At the speed it was coming in, she might have been able to move to avoid death, but not without a massive wound. Starfire decided to try her luck and dashed out the way, hoping she wouldn't have any major damaged.
Today seemed to be her lucky day. Or night. Or whatever.
BOOM! Cyborg blasted the monster back with his sonic cannon. The monster crashed into the back wall. He took out his shotgun and started blasting the monster away. Damaged, but not dead, the monster got up and started to lunge at Cyborg. Cyborg rolled to the side where Robin jump-kicked the monster back. Once on the ground, Robin lodged an exploding disk on the monster, and hopped out of the way. After a few second...BOOM. The monster is now in many little pieces.
Robin wiped some sweat off his brow. "Glad that's over."
Starfire crawled out of her hiding place. "Robin?"
Robin heard her voice and turned to her. "Starfire?"
"Robin!" Starfire rushed out from her hiding place and, with her famous crushing hugs, hugged him. "I am so glad that we are united!"
Robin patted Starfire in the back. "And...I'm glad you're alive."
Starfire pulled back. "Are the others..."
Robin sadly shook his head. "Still missing. Though we have gotten into contact with Raven and Beast Boy. So, I know they are alive. But, we don't know where they are."
Static filled the room.
Cyborg cocked his shotgun. "This is great and all, but we're far from finished here."
Robin and Starfire ran out of the room.
"They just keep coming!" Starfire placed her hands near her face.
Robin nodded. "Don't worry Star. Whatever happens, we will get through this, I promise."
As they reach the hallway, they see the monster doctors and nurses ahead of them.
"Everyone ready?" Robin was in his karate stance, holding a Bo Staff.
Starfire and Cyborg nodded.Cyborg was about to fire the first shot, when the radio static started to dissipate.
Starfire, Robin, and Cyborg blinked in confusion. "What just happened?"
A young child walked through the hallway. The doctor and nurse monsters seemed to disappear.
Starfire, Robin, and Cyborg simply stared at the scene in amazement.
Alternate Brookhaven HospitalRaven, Terra, and Beast Boy sprinted towards down the hallway.
"I can sense it here." Raven looked around. 'That monster is somewhere in this area. Now...'
CRASH! The panel next to them fell. Raven, Terra, and Beast Boy all turned around.
Two massive lumbering monsters were in front of them. The monsters have huge arms. Their skin appeared to be inside out.
"Ick. Talked about your bad skin day." Terra readied her...pipe.
"Ruff." The monster slashed his arms. Raven flew into the air, Beast Boy scrambled to the side, and Terra ducked under the monster's attacking arm. The arm left a creator on the nearby wall. The monster lost a little balance on his failed attack. Terra decided this is her chance and so she whacked the monster with all her force using the pipe.
"Take that!" Cling! The pipe bounced off of the monster. Terra stared at the damage she inflicted on it. Or more appropriately, the lack of damage on it, like none at all. "Ummmm..."
The monster turned around with his many eyes and stared at Terra.
Terra waved. "Ummm...sorry?"
The monster brought his massive arm around. Beast Boy turned into a Tyrannosaurus Rex and grabbed the monster's arm using his massive jaws. Beast Boy twisted his head, ripping flesh off of the monster. He spat out the contents. "Yuck, they even taste rotten! More reasons why I'm a vegetarian." As he is saying this, POW! The monster used his free hand and swat Beast Boy, as well as Terra, to the wall.
The monster started lumbering towards the pair. The monster raised his good arm for another attack. He was unable to move however, as a black power engulfed it.
"Want something to kill, first you have to through me." Raven used all her strength to control the monster's arm. The monster, somewhat peeved with this, spins with all his might. This was enough to loosen control of Raven's power. Raven quickly sets up a shield as the monster slammed into Raven. Each attack seemed to weaken Raven's hold. Another lumbering monster rushed out behind her as the first monster continued to attack her. Raven sensed the second monster, dropped the shield and strife to the left of her.
"Grrrra.....aaaaaaahhhhhh." The second monster received the full blunt of the first monster's attack. This crushed its chest in. One down, one to go.
Raven used her power to pick up the panel that the monster busted through with. "Azerath, Metrion, Zinthos!" She sent the panel at amazing speed towards the monster.
"Grrrrraaaaaaaa...." The first monster is now sliced in half by the massive metal panel.
After taking a breather, Raven turned to Beast Boy and Terra. Who are still on top of each other. Beast Boy though was back in his human form. Seeing that the battle is over, they get up from their position.
Beast Boy waved at Raven. "Thank..."
"Don't thank me yet. We still need to get out of here." Raven started running towards down the hallway.
"Hey, wait for us!" Beast Boy and Terra yelled in unison as they both started sprinting after Raven.
After a little run, they came across a door. Raven opened the door. "After you two."
Terra scratched her head. "Uh hehe. Maybe you should..."
Raven narrowed her eyes. "Get in."
Terra's eyes widened for a second then returned to normal. "Okay okay."
Both Terra and Beast Boy entered the dark room. Beast Boy lighted his flashlight to see what is around. Raven followed and closed the door behind her.
The room seemed completely empty. Except for a strange porcelain doll in the center. The door seemed, freaky. It looked old, and the scalp seemed to be made up of many different parts. No hair whatsoever. Around the doll's neck, there seemed to be like a spike collar or something. Freaky. There are holes on the fall wall. It appeared to be a massive door. But how do you open it?
"Well, guess that the end of the line for us. Now I guess this is up to you Raven. So, how do we get to this boss monster?" Beast Boy gave a wide grin to Raven.
"I haven't a clue." Raven's response caused Beast Boy and Terra to face fault. Raven rolled her eyes. "It means that we need to check this room though." She grabbed Beast Boy's flashlight. Raven started to scan the room.
As she got further from Beast Boy and Terra, their side began to darken. "Aaaaaahhhhhhhh. I can't see, I can't see. There might be a monster here to kill me!"
Terra tried to calm him down. "Um...Beast Boy..."
Raven felt like another vein is about to pop. "There are no monsters here. You have that radio to tell you that."
"What makes you think that the radio is any help?" Beast Boy continued to panic. "Maybe some monster can make it not work?"
Raven is getting tired of this. "Terra, his Beast Boy for me."
"Okay." Terra slapped Beast Boy in the back.
This seemed to get Beast Boy's senses back. "Uhh...hehe...thanks."
Raven shakes his head. As she scans the wall, she sees an inscription. "What's this?"
The inscription reads, All I wanted to do was fit in. All I ever wanted to be is beautiful! Make me beautiful and I will show you the way. Raven thinks for a bit, then turned to the porcelain doll. "Has to do something with that doll." She approached the doll.
Beast Boy and Terra are back within the light since they were standing near the doll. Raven examined the doll. She sees a small hole on the top of the dolls head. "What does this mean?" Then she looked at Terra. She sees Terra wearing a comb. "Hmmmm. Beast Boy, Terra, did either of you come across some kind of hair accessory, or a jewelry of some sort?"
A light bulb lighted above Beast Boy. "You mean like this?" Beast Boy took out the flower pendant.
Raven looked at the pendent. "This is it. Now, to make this doll beautiful."
Beast Boy shook his head. "Ummm...I don't think a little pendent would..."
Raven rolled her eyes for what felt like the hundredth time. "That's not the point." She put the sharp point of the pendent into the hole. After a few seconds, nothing seemed to happen. "Now what?"
Terra decided to chime in. "Maybe it is defective?"
The spikes started to quiver.
Raven's eyes widened. "GET DOWN!"
Raven, Beast Boy, and Terra instantly got down and the spikes shot out from the base of the dolls neck. The spikes are now long poles.
Beast Boy looked at the poles. "Whoa."
The poles started to bend. The poles bended up that lifted the head of the doll. The poles are legs. Like a spider, the doll moved towards the wall with holes. The legs bended back filling the holes one by one. Soon, the legs reached their maximum depth, and the head rest on a depression that they didn't realize was there. The massive door started to open. Creeeeaaaak! They looked into the room, all they see is darkness.
Beast Boy gulped. "Guess we should get this over with."
They all arrived at the room. Nothings there.
Beast Boy is peeved. "What gi..."
The ground panels' fell, sending the three down to the bottom.
Raven landed in a crouched position, apparently ready to strike. Beast Boy rolled to the side. Terra landed with a thud. The ground started to rumble.
Raven jumped ahead in front of the rumbling ground. "That must be i..." Raven heard a loud siren in her head. "No! Not now!" She held her head as if she is in pain.
Beast Boy and Terra both looked at Raven. Beast Boy tried to reach out to Raven. "Raven?"
Raven fell to the ground. "Not now." Raven started to disappear.
Now Terra started panic. "Raven, what's happening?"
Pow! A huge sandworm popped out of the ground.
"Raven!!!!" Beast Boy rushed to get Raven.
Raven disappeared as the sandworm consumed the area where she was.
