So yeah, this is the next chap. This one has a lot of dialogue! Partly because Terra is telling her story with the Titans to Brian. Oops I don't want to give it away! So read!

No matter how much I wish I did . . . I do not own the Teen Titans.


Telling her story

pt. 1

When Terra and Brian entered Terra's room, Beastboy quickly flew in and placed himself on the wall where he couldn't be seen. He knew that spying on Terra was a bad thing, but his jealously took the best of him.

When Brian saw Terra's room his jaw went agape.

"This room is amazing!" He said looking around the desert themed room.

"Thanks, the Titans made it for me when . . ." she trailed off, remembering that at that time she had been working for Slade. Her expression quickly changed. Her smile faded and she went and sat down on the bed. Brian noticed that Terra's mood had dropped.

"Ter, you alright?" Brian asked while putting a hand on her shoulder.

"Yeah, fine." she lied.

"Terra, I've known you all my life, and I know that something is wrong, so spill." Brian said, obviously not giving up that easily. Terra sighed and began.

"All right, but promise that after I tell you that you won't be mad at me, or think any less of me."

"Terra how could I ever think that about you?" Brian asked her.

"Trust me, you could." with one last sigh she now began her story, "Ok, so after I ran away from Springs City I went to a lot of towns. Trying to help out and do good. You know like I used to. But my control over my powers was growing worse. I was afraid of what my powers could do.

One day I was being pursued by this giant scorpion thing, I led it into a trap, crushing it under a huge rock." she paused for a couple seconds.

"Ok I follow you so far." Brian said.

"All right. Well the Titans had seen the whole thing. They invited me to stay at their place for while. It was funny . . . Starfire made this alien food, everyone told me not to eat it, but I did anyway. It was the greatest thing I have ever tasted. And I totally made a mess of their bathroom." Terra said with a giggle.

Beastboy was still on the wall, listening to Terra tell her story, from her point of view.

"Well that night I went out on the shore and was skipping rocks. After a while Beastboy came out and sat next to me. He soon found out about my lack of control. I made him promise not to tell anyone. Well the next day the team wanted to see what I could do. I was pretty shaky but good none the less. Then the Titans alarm signaled there was trouble. There was a break in at this diamond mind. I tried to keep control of powers as I fought. But I couldn't, a whole bunch of rocks from the ceiling broke loose and baried Beastboy. I was so afraid that I ran. When I was running I saw Slade. So I followed him. Thinking that I had him cornered, I made a wall of rock trapping him. But it turned out he had trapped me. He threw a explosive disk at the other end other the tunnel, there was no way out. I started to attack him. But of coarse I wasn't strong enough. When I thought that he was going to finish me off, he showed me my butterfly clip, and put it my hair. He said that he had been watching me for a while. He knew my secret, he knew that I only hurt people. He knew I was afraid and sought control over anything, no matter what the cost. He offered to teach me. To be my mentor. He told me that Beastboy wouldn't keep my secret, that he wasn't really my friend. By that time I had lost all of the control I had left. And Slade left me there. Before I knew it rocks were flying around me and I was floating above the ground. Suddenly I felt someone grab me, it was Beastboy. He had lunged into the swirling mess that I had created. He held me and told me that it was ok, that he was there, and that he wouldn't tell anyone what happened." she stopped for a while to let all the information sink in.

"This Slade character doesn't sound to great." Brian said.

"Yeah he wasn't. Any way. The next day I was going to leave and be on my way. But the Titans wouldn't let me go. They said that they wanted me to become apart of their team. I was so happy. But then Robin said that he knew that I had trouble controlling my powers. I dropped the communicator that they had given me. I yelled at Beastboy, thinking that he told my secret. And then I ran, ran away from everything. Ran to Slade."

"Why did you do that?" Brian asked confused.

"I was lost Brian. I didn't know what to do. Slade offered me the thing I wanted most, control."

"Sorry, I'll let you finish your story now." he said.

"Ok. So after a while Slade found me and asked me if I still wanted control. I told him that I did. It was going pretty good at first. He taught me some hand to hand combat, and how to channel my anger and emotion into my powers. He told me doing that would make me and my powers stronger. After a while I was good, really good. I think it scared him, you know, me being stronger than he had anticipated. So he started using brute force. If I would fail he would beat me. He would use me.

One day he told me to go back to the Titans and spy on them. To give him their secrets, codes, and weaknesses. He told me that I owed him. At first I protested to such a thing. They were my friends, and I didn't want to hurt them. But he beat me, saying that I didn't appreciate all that he had done for me. By the time he was done I was in so much pain that I just agreed.

So I went back to the Titans, I told them that I wanted to be a Titan again. But they were hesitant at first. They remembered that I didn't have control of my powers the last they saw me. So I proved to them that I could. Raven was still suspicious though. And she had good reason.

Slade had made these huge worm type things. He said that they would bring down the tower. He told me that if I wanted to be accepted into the Titans I would have to prove myself. So that's what I did. When the Tower was sinking I stayed and tried to stop it. Raven told me to go and leave it, but I wouldn't go, because I knew if I did that Slade would beat me more than he ever had before and that the Titans' home would be gone all because of me. Then Raven did something I never expected, she stayed and helped me. Together we saved the Tower. After that I was a Titan. That's when they showed me the room that they made for me. Which is this one." she said looking around the room. Brian didn't say anything, he just sat there and listened.

"I really loved being a Titan, having a home, being in control. I started to think if I was on the right side or not. By the next couple of weeks I had helped them stop other villains and save many people. But I was also going insane, I wanted to be with the Titans, I really did. But Slade he helped me, saved me from myself. I was so confused, I didn't know which path to take.

One night Slade e-mailed me, he told me that we would strike that night. he told me to unlock the defense system so his robots could get in and destroy the Titans. So I did.

But Beastboy . . . he was the greatest friend I had out of all the Titans. He was so understanding, and when I was with him I would forget about Slade. So I decided to lead him away from the Tower. To leave the others. So I took him everywhere. I showed him some places that I had been to. Then we came to an amusement park. We had the time of our lives there. When we were on the Ferris wheel I was going to tell him all that I had been doing, that I had betrayed them. But I wanted to help them, I wanted to go back to the Tower and help. But before I could say anything Slade came along. I was so scared that I didn't know what to do. Then Beastboy attacked Slade. He was attacking with such . . . anger. Finally I told him to fly, then I made a huge opening in the ground and the ferris wheel was rubble.

We ran into the house of mirrors. I was frantically trying to find Beastboy because we had gotten separated. But Slade found him first. He told Beastboy that I was a traitor, that I was working for him. Beastboy was enraged, he told Slade that he was lying. I couldn't stand it anymore, so I told him that it was true. Brian you should of seen the look on his face, I felt like dying." Terra stopped to regain herself. Brian saw the tears glistening in her eyes, and how she fought to restrain them. Brian went and put a comforting arm around her. Though Beastboy was not all too pleased about this action, he wasn't mad. He knew that Terra needed comforting, and since he couldn't right now he thought it better to be Brian than no one at all.

"Terra it's ok. We all make mistakes." Brian comforted.

"But Brian you don't even know the worst part." she said trying to hold back the sobbing

"Than tell me. I promise I'll be your friend, no matter what." Brian told her. Terra looked at him. She remembered that those words where the exact same words that Beastboy had said to her. Would Brian not keep his promise like Beastboy did that night everything came into the open, the night that she needed Beastboy most, the night that she betrayed everyone?


O.o

I kind of like the ending to this. I wasn't really planning on making this a two part thing, but my brain is on the fritz right now :P I mean with all the exams and such. So you will have to bear with me. I hope I didn't drag the first part of the story on too long, but I didn't want to leave out anything important. So if I need to cut back a bit on the details, please tell me! Any way, thank you for reading and please review!
