So here is the next chap. I hope you read and enjoy!
And I do not own the Teen Titans.
Faith and hugs
Beeeep . . . Beeeep . . . Beeeep . . .
The heart monitor was the only thing making a sound in the plain, white, infirmary room. Beastboy and the other Titans were all the room. Starfire and Robin were on the tiny couch that they brought into the room. Starfire was sleeping and had her head rested on Robin's shoulder. Robin was awake and though very tired did not fall asleep. Cyborg was in a chair at the computer monitoring Terra's heart rate, blood pressure, and other such things. Raven was by the window looking out into the starry night sky. The rain was hitting the window lightly. It was a beautiful night, but no matter how hard she tried, Raven could not come to enjoy it.
Beeeep . . . Beeeep . . . Beeeep . . .
Beastboy was in a chair right by Terra's bedside. His hands were placed atop hers. Her hands felt cold against his warm ones. If the heart monitor wasn't there, beeping every time her heart beat, you could not tell that she was even breathing.
Beeeep . . . Beeeep . . . Beeeep . . .
Beastboy wanted all of this to be over. He wished that he could wake up from this nightmare. He wanted to go back into his fantasy world, where the only thing that went bad was the nondairy cheese. But this was no fantasy world, and he had to accept it. He had to accept that Terra could easily die right now. He had to accept that not everything is perfect, and bad things happen to good people, reason or no reason.
Beeeep . . . Beeeep . . . Beeeep . . .
Beastboy's stomach growled. Cyborg looked over at him. He had never seen Beastboy this way. Sure when Terra was stone Beastboy was sad. But both Beastboy and the rest of the team knew that she would come back, that they would have found a cure. Unlike last time, there was no hope of getting Terra back if she died, and they all knew it.
"Hey B, why don't you get something to eat with me? We could eat that tofu stuff." Cyborg asked in hopes that it might get Beastboy to think about something other than Terra. Starfire awoke and was hungry herself,
"Yes, I am very hungry myself." she answered quietly.
"Good idea, I think we can all use something to eat." Robin said getting up from the couch. Beastboy didn't tear his gaze away from Terra when he answered.
"No thanks. Not hungry."
Cyborg, Robin, and Starfire then left the room. They didn't want to pressure Beastboy into anything right now. Raven was still at the window. She turned around slightly to look at Beastboy. She never knew that Beastboy could act this way. When he held Terra in his arms, and was begging her not to leave him, it stunned Raven. She didn't know the two felt so strongly about each other.
Beeeep . . . Beeeep . . . Beeeep . . .
Raven walked over to Beastboy. "Beastboy, I'm going down to make some tea. Will you be ok here alone?" she questioned. Beastboy simply nodded. Raven started out the door. She stopped and turned around. She didn't like seeing Beastboy this way.
"Beastboy . . ."
He looked up at Raven and said very quietly "Yeah."
Then Raven continued, "don't loose faith." and with that she walked out the door.
Those words stuck in Beastboy's mind. 'Don't loose faith'. The words kept ringing in his ears. He didn't pray all that much, but he believed that someone was up there watching over him and Terra. He closed his eyes, he grabbed onto Terra's hands with both of his. He didn't know if this would work, but faith was the only thing he had left to offer.
"God, or somebody up there, if you can hear me please let Terra be all right. Please, if anyone is up there, answer my prayer." and after saying his prayer he opened his eyes and waited. Waited for any sign that, whoever it was that was watching over Terra, heard his prayer.
Beeeep . . . Beeeep . . . Beeeep . . .

In Terra's mind
"Beastboy! Raven! Somebody!" Terra frantically screamed, while trying to find someone that could help her. She wondered around the canyon for some time now, and so far she had no luck of finding anybody. She was she was lost, she was alone, and she was scared. There was no wind, no smells of a cool breeze, no sign of life anywhere. As she sighed a sigh of defeat, she went and sat down on a boulder.
"Where is everyone?" she rhetorically questioned. Then she felt a cold chill in the air. She wrapped her arms herself and started to shiver. Then a voice came out of nowhere, it was dreary and seemed almost ghostly.
"Waiting for you." the voice said, not changing it's tone throughout it's sentence.
"What? Where. Who are you. And what do you mean, "Waiting for me." Show your self." Terra commanded looking around to try and spot the owner of the mysterious voice.
"We're waiting for you Terra." the voice then said again.
"What do you mean? Who are you" Terra asked the cold voice.
"Wake up Terra, we're waiting for you. Wake up."
Terra then recognized the voice, it was Beastboy. "Beastboy! Beastboy where are you!" then everything disappeared. The canyons and rocks slowly drifted away. The blue sky disappeared. It was totally black. Terra couldn't see in front of her. She reached out her hands.
"Help! Beastboy, please help me!" she started running, she didn't know where she was going, all she knew was that Beastboy was somewhere. She tripped and tumbled over. She got to her hands and knees. Her hair fell in front of her face. She started to cry. She was so lost, and she didn't know where to go, or where anybody was. Then she heard Beastboy's voice again.
"Don't cry,I'm here now."
She looked up and Beastboy was there. He had his 'everything is perfect' smile across his face. He held out his hand. Terra took it, and he helped her up.
"Beastboy, you came." Terra whimpered.
"Of coarse I came. You didn't think I would just let you be lost forever did you." He said while hugging her. When they let go of each other Beastboy got a serious look on his face (not something you see everyday).
"Beastboy what's the matter?" Terra asked him.
"Terra you need to wake up. We're all waiting for you." then he walked her over to a massive sized opening. It was pulling them in towards it. It was some sort of black hole.
" Beastboy, what is this?" Terra asked looking again at the giant hole sucking in air like a vacuum.
"This is how you get home." Beastboy said while pushing her closer.
"What, you expect me to jump into that thing. No way, no how, no . . ."
"Terra, this is the only way." Beastboy interrupted.
"But . . ." Before she could finish Beastboy took her hand.
"Do you trust me?"
"Yes of coarse I do." she answered. And before Terra could do anything more she found herself being pushed into the giant hole. She screamed as she plummeted downward, she then could see something coming into view. She saw a girl in a bed, and a boy sitting by her side. As she fell closer and closer she realized that it was her in the bed, and it was Beastboy that was by her side. She continued to fall until she landed inside the Terra that was on the bed.

No longer in Terra's mind
Terra awoke with a jolt. She sat upright and was gasping for breath. She put her hand on her heart, she felt the quick and heavy beats. She looked around the room. She saw Beastboy next to her, asleep in the chair. She smiled and she put a hand on his should and shook him lightly.
"Beastboy, Beastboy."
Beastboy gently opened his eyes. When he saw Terra awake he practically fell over.
"Terra, you're awake! You're all right!" after he said this he reached over and hugged Terra. He gave her a bone crushing Starfire hug. Terra was still sitting in the bed, and she found it hard to breathe with Beastboy hugging her so tight.
"Beastboy . . . air." she managed say. He quickly let go of her and blushed a bit.
"Uh, sorry. I'm just happy you're awake. You had me so worried."
"Sorry I had you worried. Um . . . where are the others. Wait what time is it?" she intrigued.
"They went down to get something to eat about twenty minutes ago, so I would guess they are still eating. Raven should be up here any minute though. And last time I checked it was about five in the morning."
Just then Raven walked in the room. She almost dropped her tea cup to the floor when she saw Terra awake. Thankfully she caught the cup with her powers before it hit the ground. She walked over to Terra and stood there for a couple of seconds, then she gave Terra a light huge. When she did she said,
"Thank you, friend." then Raven let go. She pulled up a chair and sat down. She took tiny sips of her tea.
Terra was touched by the three words Raven said. First off, the last time Terra sacrificed herself, Raven didn't say 'thank you'. And another was that Raven had never really thought of Terra as a friend before. Up until now Terra was always just a 'teammate' to Raven. Now Terra knew that Raven considered her a friend.
A couple minutes later Robin, Starfire and Cyborg entered the room. When Starfire saw Terra she immediately flew over to her.
"Oh, friend you are awake!" Terra braced herself for yet another bone crushing hug. But to her surprise Starfire's hug was gentle and soft. Robin walked over to Terra.
"Good to have you back Terra, you gave us quite a scare." after Robin had said this Cyborg went over to the computer and checked on everything.
"Well, everything seems to be back to normal. But you will probably feel a little drained for a couple of days.You're lucky to be alive. Those Nanotrilites really took it out of you." Cyborg finished.
Terra then remembered Slade's probes. "Are the probes still in me?" she asked.
"Nope, I killed em' all. When Slade told us what they were and how they worked, I was able to find a way to kill em'." Cyborg answered her.
"Cyborg you rock." Terra said while giving Cyborg a high five.
"All in a days work." Cyborg bragged.
Terra looked down at what she was wearing. She noticed that she had on a hospital gown. (And no, it wasn't split in the back). Terra then swung her legs over the side of the bed. She stood up, but was very wobbly. Robin and Starfire helped stabilize herOnce she had her balance she turned around and said to her friends
"I am going to change into some real clothes."
Then they all got up, and they all went out of the room and to their own rooms.
Ahh! This chap sucked! I don't know what I was thinking when I was writing it. But it is too late to start over, so I guess you guys will have to suffer. Ok I know I said this would be the last chap but it was so long I had to split it into two.So now there is one more left
