Slade walked over to Terra with a remote of some type in his hands. "Well Terra, I think it is about time you are put to use." He said coolly
Terra glared coldly at him. "What're you talking about?" she more snapped then asked. Even though she was glaring, you could see she had both hate, and fear in her eyes.
Raven landed in front of the Tower door and pushed it open. "We're back," she said in her usual tone of voice as she walked in.
"Your powers, are about to charge one of the most powerful weapons known to earth" Slade said, grinning to himself again as he started to circle Terra with the wire filled helmet held behind him.
Terra's eyes widened slightly. She shook her head as best she could while strapped to this metal bed. "No…" she said. She closed her eyes. Why me? she thought. "What does it do?" she asked with a hint of fear in her voice now. She struggled once again, desperate to get away.
Slade grinned at her question then stopped his vulture like circling in front of her "This" He started, holding the helmet that was made nearly entirely of wires "Will drain the very earth moving power within you, and power up this" He stepped aside and a light flickered on to show a giant gun like machine. "And cause every type of destruction imaginable" He finished
Terra stopped struggling for a brief moment to listen. She stared at him, eyes wide in horror. "No…" she said again, more to herself. "No," she said louder and started struggling again. Tears formed in her eyes, and started running down her face as she continued struggling. "No! Let. Me. GO!" she yelled, still struggling. Tears fell faster as she realized she couldn't get out of this. There was no way out. Terra remembered Slade's words earlier. This area is shielded with a cloaking deceive. So don't get any hopes of being rescued. She let out a half moan, half grunt as she continued on trying to escape, even though she knew it was useless.
Slade walked over and stuck his face in front of Terra's "and who knows, if this proves successful, perhaps I should use it with your friends as well. Starting with the green one maybe" He said, the weaker her mind was, the easier it would be to drain her energy. Getting her this worked up was a good thing... for him.
Terra had closed her eyes and continued struggling. At the mention of her friends, her eyes snapped open. Her eyes widened at the mention of Beast Boy. "No!" she yelled. "Stay away from him!" Slade was so close… she wanted more then anything to just punch him in the face. She struggled again, only more then before. "No, no, no! I won't let you hurt him!" Tears spilled down her face still.
"Terra" Slade leaned back and stood up straight, towering over her "How will you stop me?"
Beast boy had been searching the hills for what seemed like ever. In his blood hound form his nose hardly ever left the dirty ground.
"Shut up, just SHUT UP!" Terra screamed again, louder then the last time she yelled at him. Much louder. She was getting desperate, desperate enough to scream for help, but didn't. She let out angry grunts and as she struggled again.
"Don't worry Terra. Draining your powers may very well drain your life, so I am sure you wont have to listen to me... much longer" Slade backed away so he wasn't visible in the dim light.
Terra stared after him, shocked. She didn't want to die! Her shock ended, and was replaced with determination to get out. She struggled again, but only brought pain to herself. She groaned as she tried to get her arms out. She whimpered as she told herself it was no use. She gave another weak, less confident struggle.
Beast Boy had been near giving up, until he had found a scent. He wagged his tail in pure joy then morphed human and grabbed his T-com "Beast Boy calling tower" He said into it, his voice filled with excitement
"Robin, we got an incoming call" Cyborg said as the giant screen blinked. "It's Beast Boy"
Slade looked down at the remote and helmet he held. He looked back at Terra. He would let her struggle and lose more hope a little longer before putting his plan into action.
"Do you think he's okay?" Robin asked. Dumb question, Beast Boy was probably fine. "Do you think he found something?"
More tears fell down Terra's face. She gave a few more pathetic attempts before closing her eyes and breathing hard from struggling for so long. Even though her eyes were closed, tears still managed to fall down her slightly reddened cheeks. Slade was right… no one was coming to rescue her.
"Dunno, lets find out" Cyborg pressed the button and let the call go through "BB? Everything okay?" He asked, looking up into the screen.
"Yea I'm fine" Beast Boy said, smiling "Hey I got Terra's trail, I'm up in the mountains" He said, wondering if he should ask Robin if he could go on ahead while the others caught up.
Starfire looked up at the huge screen, glad to see Beast Boy, and just as happy to hear he had found Terra's trail.
"The mountains?" Raven repeated.
"Beast Boy, you keep going, we'll be there as soon as possible," Robin ordered.
"Great! See you guys soon!" Beast Boy said still with excitement.
"Yo B, don't do anything stupid" Cyborg warned, though in a joking tone.
"I'll try" Beast Boy laughed "Beast Boy out" He shut his T-com then morphed back into the blood hound and fallowed the trail hurriedly. Terra was close! He was going to find her.
Slade walked over, it had been long enough. He placed the helmet on Terra's head then nodded at a bot who walked over to the key bored and typed in a code. Moments later needles came from the straps holding Terra down and pierced her skin and into her veins. "Oh and Terra" Slade said before walking off "it's been a pleasure working with you" He walked off into the shadows once more. The helmet started to flicker with sparks. It sent shocks into Terra's head, while the needles sent a sharp pain into her body.
"C'mon, let's go," Robin said, heading towards the door.
"Yeah, before he really does do something stupid," Raven half joked.
Terra started struggling again as Slade came towards her with the helmet. The thing looked lethal. She desperately struggled, but with no luck. She tried shaking her head, but it didn't work. Obviously. "AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" The needles punctured her skin and she screamed, screamed a loud, long scream of pain and agony. She heard Slade but said nothing. She clenched her fists, as well as her teeth together, but couldn't help but let out a half groan, half yell. "AHHHHHHHHHHHH!" she screamed again. End it! Please! Just end it! She thought desperately. It was pain, hot, sharp, piercing pain that was near indescribable.
The gun's battery part started glowing yellow as Terra's power, Terra's life, was being drained.
Beast Boy lifted his ears at the faint sound. He strained so hard it hurt his head till he heard it again. Screaming... Terra! He growled and started running, only half following the path. Moments later he could hear the screaming, though still muffled quite a bit. But he was at an iron door. Must be the place. He backed away then morphed into a T-rex and ran at the door head on, though unlike last time he had done this for Terra, he didn't care if he tripped any alarms. He morphed human and ran into the cave lair as soon as it had busted down. "TERRA!" He shouted, though not in sight.
Cyborg nodded and fallowed Robin, Starfire was almost ahead of both boys.
Robin ran outside. "Beast Boy said the hills. Cyborg and I need transportation."
Raven muttered her three magic words "Azarath Metrion Zinthos." And a ball of black energy appeared and flattened itself to a disk big enough for a person to stand on. She lowered it to Robin, who stepped on.
Terra breathed heavily, she could feel the life leaving her. She jammed her eyes shut once more. "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" she screamed as the persisting pain in her body kept coming. Terra thought she heard someone call her, but didn't think twice of it. "AHHHHHH!" It was getting harder to breathe, but she could still take in breaths without trouble. She was dieing and she knew it. She screamed again, it was a shorter scream this time as the pain built. The pain was towering over her and her will to live. Tears streaked her face again as she let out another pained scream. She couldn't take much more, this was torture. She didn't want to die! She had lived such a short and painful life. A thought of Beast Boy entered her mind, but was gone just as fast. If only she could've seen him again. Happy though. Like it was before. "AHHHHHH!" she clenched her teeth again and half moaned, half yelled again. Her breathing was being taken in deep gasps that hurt. Today was the day she was going to die. And she knew it. There was nothing she or anyone could do to stop it. She screamed again as one last thought of Beast Boy entered her mind. "It's never too late," He had told her. Never… say never she thought and screamed once more.
Beast Boy came into the room where Terra was held, along with the gun. But his eyes went straight for Terra. "Terra!" He screamed again and ran over after ripping the bots apart in record time. He looked over her helplessly. He looked at the helmet, then at Terra's pain filled face. He placed his hand on hers, he didn't know what he could do but wait for the others, or watch for Slade. Slade... Beast Boy would tear him to bits if he saw him.
Slade grunted to himself at the sight of Beast Boy. That little annoying green teenager was always getting in the way. He walked from the shadows, in front of Terra and Beast Boy "touching, really" He said in his regular tone.
Beast Boy whipped his head around to glare at Slade "Don't come any closer" He half warned, and half yelled
"Star, would you be able to take me?" Cyborg asked her.
"Of course" Starfire said happily then grabbed Cyborg's thick arms and lifted him up slightly to show she was ready to go.
Slade took a step closer, mocking B.
Beast Boy growled deeply. He was told not to do anything stupid, and the plan coming into his mind was only about half stupid, would that count? "I'm warning you; don't come any closer to her!" He yelled, his voice was deep from the growls.
Slade turned around as if to go, then turned around again in a turning side kick, knocking Beast boy into the wall.
Beast Boy yelped in pain before sliding down to a sitting position with his back to the wall. His head was throbbing from the headache he had just become home too. He leaned forward so his upper half of his body was supported by his arms.
"You, warn me. Don't make me laugh" Slade said, bringing his staff out. He was getting real tired of this Titan getting in his way every time it had something to do with Terra.
"Go away..." Beast Boy warned once more, taking his deep breaths with his head hung.
Terra heard Beast Boy and was filled with a sudden burst of hope. Although, it was gone in seconds as another wave of pain came over her. She screamed again, her eyes jammed shut in pain, but crying all the same. Her scream was cut short this time at her loss of energy. Her fists were clenched still; if she hadn't had been wearing gloves, her palms would be bleeding. She was shaking in both pain and fear. She heard something else now too, something that sounded much like the beginning of a fight. She opened her eyes for a second, immediately seeing Beast Boy on the floor over by the wall. She wanted to yell, 'don't hurt him' but it came out as more of a whimper, to a scream as another jolt of pain came.
Raven started flying in the direction of the mountains, bringing the disk with Robin on it with her.
Beast Boy looked over at Terra; he didn't know how much longer she could take this torture. He looked up at Slade with a face that said he was ready to kick some serious butt.
Slade stood there then brought the staff over his head to swing it down over Beast Boy's head.
"Stop…" Terra said weakly. Seeing Beast Boy get hurt only made more pain. She screamed as the pain came rushing over her again. Her scream ended in a groan. "Help..." she said in a half whimper. Another scream of agony broke through her. She wanted all the pain to end, right now. The machine wasn't only draining her life and energy; her will to live had come along with it. Her breathes had turned to short, sharp gasps. It was harder to scream, almost like the machine took more of her energy with every scream. She looked over at the yellow glowing battery, watching her energy fill up. Another yell of pain escaped her lips; she couldn't stop it from coming.
At Terra's last scream and Slade's staff being swung down at his head Beast Boy rolled to the side then stood up. This was dangerous, he didn't have complete control, but it was the only thing he could think of since the others didn't seem to be getting here fast enough. He closed his eyes as his body grew taller; his hairgrew as well till he was completely covered. His fangs grew to the size of his head. The claws grew longer, sharper, deadlier. His morphing ended with a beast like monster curled up. All at once his arms spread out and his wolf like head shot up into the air, allowing a howl that would send goose bumps to anyone.
Slade took a staggered step back, his first though; Aw crap
Raven finally landed on the mountain. She set the black disk Robin was on, on the ground, and looked around.
Terra opened her eyes slowly and stared at the scene before her. She stared at the Beast she knew to be Beast Boy before letting out another pained scream. Her scream ended in a groan and she gasped for breath. She looked down at her hands to about the middle of her arms. They were both numb. She couldn't scream anymore. All she could do was whimper, and groan in pain. Even more tears fell down her face; it was scaring her that she couldn't feel her arms. Her legs were starting to numb too. She was dieing.
Beast boy was snarling and growling as he took steps closer to Slade. He took a swipe with his giant claws at the masked man, but Slade jumped out of the way and gripped the staff tightly.
Slade ran at the beast formed boy and swung his staff at his head, and hit.
B was able to shake the slap from the staff off with ease. He only snarled in anger and then jumped up, meaning to land on Slade. But Slade knew this move well for he had done it before a few times and that it was justcomen sense to jump out of the way, which he did. Beast Boy landed with his curled fist breaking into the floor and leaving a dent.
"Okay... anyone know where we find B?" Cyborg asked, after Starfire set him on the ground, then landed herself.
Robin looked around for any sign.
Raven put her fingers to her temples and concentrated. "He's close," she said.
Another jolt of pain went through Terra's body and she jammed her eyes shut. She groaned and whimpered again, taking in sharp gasps of air. Her eyes slowly opened and she watched Beast Boy's form dent the ground before jamming her eyes shut again.
"Lead the way then" Cyborg said to Raven, glad she could pick up mind signals if he couldn't.
Slade jumped up into a jumping side kick, but Beast Boy caught his foot and swung him into the wall with a loud bang. The wall shook slightly from the inpact. Ow.
Raven led them through the mountain and into a cave finally. She looked around. There was something up ahead she could hear. It almost sounded like a fight. She looked over at Robin and he nodded. They kept going.
Terra's arms were completely numb now, and half of her legs. In fact, nearly her whole lower body was going numb. She jammed her eyes shut when another blast of pain went through her. Her eyes opened slowly and she looked over at the battery. It was three fourths full. She stared at it, watching her energy fill up as it was sucked out of her. As Terra noticed her upper body starting to become a bit numb, she realized there was one good thing about pain: it lets you know you're not dead yet. She was suddenly wishing she could still feel her legs and arms. Still feel the pain. She didn't want to die. She was getting weaker, and weaker.
Starfire almost flew ahead of Raven, she was eager to find both her friends, at the sound of fighting she got even more eager to find them.
Slade fell to the ground after Beast Boy let go, and grunted. He didn't like losing. He stood back up and got into his battle position.
Beast Boy growled, inside he was trying not to go full out; if that happened then who knows who else would get hurt besides just Slade. But he wanted to make Slade pay for what he had done and was still doing to Terra. He jumped and tackled Slade, trying to pin him to the ground.
Slade though grabbed the Beast's arms and struggled to throw him to the ground, then would be able to maybe get a hit. He finally brought his knee up into Beast Boy's gut. Then lifted his foot up and did it again only it was stronger, and more painful.
Beast Boy let go and recoiled, snarling again at Slade.
Slade ran at him, then jumped up and did a jumping roundhouse kick into Beast boy's chest.
Beast Boy was thrown back by the powerful hit. Pain now throbbed in his chest, and only made his beast side angrier. He landed on the control panel and made a dent in it.
The computer screen blinked then said "Cloaking device, deactivated"
Slade silently cursed himself for that move.
Cyborg looked around, hoping they found B soon, and Terra. His arm started beeping "Hang on guys" He said, then looked at the scanner on his arm in surprise. "I'm picking up BB's heart beat. I dunno how but I am" Cyborg looked up at the others. Both surprise and joy in his voice. With this and Ravens powers they would find the lair in no time.
Nearly Terra's whole body was numb. She slowly averted her eyes to look at the battery. She looked at Beast Boy. She tried to say his name, but it came out as nearly a whisper. "Beast Boy…" her eyes started closing. She tried to keep the open, but couldn't. It was getting harder.
Robin sped up. "C'mon, we have to find them," he said.
Raven sped up as she sensed them nearer then before. Much nearer. She had sped up so much Robin was running after her.
Starfire flew faster, glad for the speed up and Cyborg was behind the others and watching his arm blink faster as they got closer.
They came to the door Beast Boy had knocked down, "We are very near!" Starfire shouted with delight.
Beast Boy finally had to morph back human, he fell off the control panel and moaned. The morphing had taken a lot of his power. He hoped to god the others where almost here.
Slade walked over to Beast Boy slowly, now that he wasn't a threat, or as much.
Terra could only watch the scene before her. Since her entire body was now numb and she couldn't feel the pain, she didn't whimper in pain, or groan, but she silently cried. She could still feel her life being drained though, and it was getting harder, and harder to keep her eyes open.
Robin started running faster at the sight of the crashed down door. They were so close, he just knew it.
Raven flew faster after him, she didn't need to try and sense them, she knew they were close too.
Starfire flew a little ways ahead of the others. Her hand started glowing bright green so they where given light in the dark cave-lair.
Finally, the titans came into the room where Slade, Beast Boy, and Terra were. Robin first noticed Slade, then Beast Boy, then Terra. He scowled at Slade. He didn't wait to say anything to Slade before yelling, "Titans! GO!"
Terra heard what was going on, but very distantly. She couldn't tell whose voice it was. Her eyes drooped closed. She could still hear everything going on, but it was hard to open her eyes.
Starfire flew up as high as she could and started flinging star bolts at Slade who was taking steps back. Cyborg aimed his cannon at Slade then looked around and shouted "Guys be careful! We don't want to trigger anything"
Beast boy looked up when he heard Robin. "Bout time!" He shouted in a joking way. He sat up with his aching back to the control panel.
Robin whipped out a few electric disks. He threw them at Slade, and then ran at him.
Raven threw black energy balls at Slade, not watching if she missed or not. She mainly focused on missing Robin.
Terra tried to open her eyes when she heard everything going on. She slowly opened them and looked over at everyone. She looked over at the battery. It was close to being full. She made a half groan kind of noise, and her eyes closed again and everything she heard sounded distant as though it was far off.
Slade didn't want to fight, he knew he wouldn't win. The good solider knew when to retreat. "As much as I would love to stay and talk" He started, after dodging Robin. "I am afraid I have places to go" He pulled out the remote, it had another button. He pressed it and the lair started filling with smoke and flashing red.
"Destruction mode, activated" the computer said.
Slade waved mockingly at Robin then disappeared into the smoke.
Beast Boy started couching; his eyes and lungs were filling with smoke and fast. He got up with his arm over his mouth and started to where he knew Terra was.
The needles recoiled from Terra, the helmet shut down now that the whole place was going to blow.
Robin lunged at Slade, right before he disappeared, not that it did anything. He pulled his cape up a bit to cover his face.
"We have to get out of here!" Raven said with her mouth covered.
All the smoke really didn't help Terra's condition, she couldn't breath as easily. Every thing started going black and everything sounded even more distant. Seconds later her eyes closed again, and everything went completely black.
Cyborg coughed as he ran after BB to help.
Beast Boy ran to Terra's other side then morphed into a gorilla and ripped the straps holding her down with all his might. While Cyborg was on her other side, he ripped the one from her neck then got the last two on her ankle and arm. "Do you want me to-" Cyborg started but was cut off.
"I got her" Beast Boy had said after morphing back human. He slid his arm under Terra's legs and neck then picked her up.
Cyborg nodded at Beast boy "LETS GET OUTA HERE!" He shouted to the others.
Robin and Raven stood at the entry of the room, waiting on their two friends that they couldn't see through the thick smoke. When they heard Cyborg yell, they both ran out of the room, still covering their faces.
Starfire floated down, she held her arm to her mouth while she choked on the thick smoke. She lit her spare hand with a starbolt so Cyborg and Beast Boy could see the way out.
Beast Boy was about to run when something behind him blew. The explosion lit the entire room up for a split second; the smoke cleared but then was quickly replaced with more. Beast Boy had leaned his head forward and cringed at the explosion, still holding Terra tightly he started running with Cyborg right behind him. The smoke started filling his lungs as he had no spare arm to cover his own mouth with. He looked down at Terra; she needed something to cover her own mouth with. He stopped for a minute and before Cyborg could ask what he was doing Beast Boy leaned forward, his hand poked up from under Terra. He grabbed his glove with his teeth and ripped it off his hand. He then set it down on Terra's face and hoped it would be enough for now.
"B! c'mon!" Cyborg urged as another item started to turn a glowing red, hinting at it about to blow.
"Friend! Please hurry!" Starfire cried some where in the smoke.
Cyborg looked around then spotted a faint green glow, he took it for Starfire's starbolt "C'mon B, lets get outta here" He said grinning then dashed towards the light.
Beast Boy fallowed, taking glances down at the limp girl in his arms. Hoping they hadn't got here too late.
Raven and Robin waited and looked back into the room from the entry. They could see a green glow a little ways off. They both knew it was Starfire giving off light to the other two. When the explosion happened, both Raven and Robin covered their heads. "Beast Boy? Cyborg? Are you guys alright?" Robin yelled through the lair. When he heard Cyborg, he sighed a sigh of relief.
"Hurry, we have to get out of here!" Raven said again as smoke continued filling the room.
Starfire was straining her eyes from trying to see into the smoke to find the boys. Everything was blowing, and catching fire. More then smoke was now in the air. And too much of this stuff getting inhaled and it could prove to be a problem. "Friends! This way!" Starfire cried with joy when she saw them
Cyborg was leading Beast boy through the smoke when he heard Starfire. "Almost out" He mostly said to himself in relief. Another thing threatened to blow to pieces. Starfire was soon in sight, barley though.
"This way" Starfire said again, and started flying out of the building and finally with Robin and Raven. Cyborg was right behind her and Beast Boy bringing up the rear and couching like a smoker.
Cyborg looked down at his arm and ran a quick scan "We have to get away from here, this whole mountain side is going to blow" He said, looking up at Robin.
Robin stopped running as did Raven. Raven looked over at Robin and he nodded. "Azarath Metrion Zinthos!" Raven said, louder then usual but not quite a shout. A black energy bubble surrounded the six teens and moments later, they were transported somewhere else. The black bubble like barrier disappeared and the Teen Titans were all outside Titans Tower.
Beast Boy shivered, that transport thing always creeped him out when he was the one getting transported.
Starfire looked around at her friends then her surroundings then jumped up in the air "We are victories!" She shouted.
Cyborg looked towards the mountain, watching too see what would happen to it next. They weren't really far off, but far enough for safety.
Beast Boy looked down at Terra. His glove had some how stayed over her mouth. Since there was no need for it anymore he leaned Terra closer to his chest so he could move the arm supporting her neck. He reached over and pulled the glove off and just held on to it since it would be a little hard to put it back on at the moment. He looked back down at her then up at the others "Guys... what about Terra?" He asked, looking from one Titan to the next.
A loud boom echoed from the mountains. Cyborg looked a little harder and could see the rocky side of the mountain cave in. but after the gap was full the rest of the rocks and dirt slid down the remaining side and landed on the desert ground with loud banging noises. Dirt and dust rose from the desert terrain.
Robin had been about to answer Beast Boy when his attention was drawn to the mountain as well. He finally shook his head and looked back at Beast Boy and the unconscious Terra. "We need to get her to the hospital," he said.
"But, is there anything we can do?" Raven asked. "What if-"
"We can try," Robin cut her off. She had been about to say 'what if we're too late' and Robin didn't think that was the greatest thing for her to say at the moment.
"Beast Boy, you must be tired, do you not wish that I take turn in charring Terra?" Starfire asked, standing in front of Beast Boy.
Beast Boy looked down at Terra then back at Starfire. His arms where starting to hurt, but he wanted to help as much as possible. "No thanks Star, I got her"
"I am going to run ahead and get the hospital ready" Cyborg told them before running into the tower and hurrying to the hospital room.
Beast Boy looked at Raven then back down at Terra. He knew what she was going to say, he was thinking the same thing. He bit his lower lip then started for the tower
Robin watched Beast Boy go, a bit worried for the both of them, actually. He was worried about both Beast Boy and Terra. He looked over at Raven and they both started heading into the Tower after Beast Boy.
Starfire fallowed Robin and Raven then once in the tower lifted herself from the floor and started to the hospital
Beast Boy was jogging up the stairs by the time the others came in. He didn't want to run because he was afraid he would trip or something. He had that twisted feeling in his gut that told him to hurry up, His legs felt like noodles from the rushing state he was now in. He turned a corner and knew the hospital was too far away now. Cyborg would have everything ready and then Terra would get better. That was the thought going through his head.
Raven watched Beast Boy hurry up the stairs. For once, she was hoping her Terra's health. She didn't want to watch Beast Boy go through all that pain, and sorrow again. She couldn't stand to watch him go through all that again.
Robin was walking after Beast Boy. Not a jog, but not just a walk. More of a fast walk. He was wondering if they were too late. What if they hadn't gotten there in time? They had to though. They'd saved thousands of people before. If they'd saved thousands of people, they could save their own teammate.
"Were almost there" Beast Boy said. "Then after your better everything will be like it used to be" He said, wondering if Terra would even be able to hear him.
After what seemed all too long to Beast Boy he came to the hospital door. Cyborg had been considerate enough to leave it open, good thing too because B sorta had his arms full. "Cyborg" Beast Boy called as he walked in.
Starfire was just a little ways ahead of Robin; she decided to stop until he caught up. Her feet lightly touched the floor. She looked her shoulder at Robin then back down the hall. Her green eyes were filled with worry, and once again her fists had found there way to her chest again.
Cyborg looked over his shoulder at Beast boy. "Put her on the bed" He said then turned back to the computer he had been setting up.
Beast Boy nodded his head then walked over to the small bed. He set Terra down gently as if afraid she would break at the slightest quick movement. He gazed down at her angel face then looked over at Cyborg who was walking over.
Cyborg attached wires to Terra's head arms and chest so he could make sure she was still alive... even if he couldn't keep it that way for long he would try.
Robin ran to catch up with Starfire. He stopped running once he was caught up and kept walking. He didn't say a word to her though. He didn't know what to say. What if they had been too late? What if Terra really died this time?
Raven was walking behind both Robin and Starfire. She once again had nothing to say.
Robin came into the hospital and looked around. Cyborg was by the computer, and Beast Boy had already set Terra on the bed,
Cyborg looked over at Robin "She's alive… but just barely" He informed.
Starfire walked in after Robin then floated over next to Cyborg to watch the computers.
Beast boy stood there in the same spot. He had his back to the beds railing he had put up a minute ago. His arms where crossed and his head hung. "I should have gotten there sooner" He mumbled, glancing at Terra for a minute then back down at his crossed arms.
Raven came in last. She looked around the room. She didn't really like it up here. They were always there after something really bad happened where someone got hurt. Obviously, it's the hospital.
Robin looked over at Beast Boy. "You can't blame yourself for this. It wasn't your fault," he said. The last thing Beast Boy needed was to be beating on himself like that.
Beast Boy stayed silent. Why was it time seemed to go slower when you where worried? They had been up here 5 minutes tops, and to him it felt like hours. He felt helpless. Like now he couldn't help Terra in anyway and that made him want to scream. He wanted to help! But Cyborg was taking care of the computers... there was nothing else he could do but wait and pray Terra would make it. He glanced at her again. She looked weak and almost dead, He looked away again and closed his eyes and listened to the monitor beep at a steady rate.
Robin finally spoke up. "Maybe we should get some rest…" he suggested. There was nothing else they could do. Not really anyways.
All Raven could do was nod her head in agreement. She was seriously tired. And she needed to meditate.
Beast Boy again stayed silent, He didn't feel like talking to anyone right now. He was still convinced if he had only have gotten to Terra sooner, or at least have fought better she wouldn't be like this. He hoped Robin took his silence for saying he would rather stay up.
"Bed sounds most welcoming but" Starfire glanced at Terra "Shall no one watch our friend I fear the worst"
Robin looked over at Beast Boy. "You wouldn't mind watching her, would you?" he more said then asked. He already knew Beast Boy wouldn't mind. But, he asked anyways.
Beast Boy looked up at Robin "I wouldn't mind" He said. Sounded great to him.
Cyborg nodded at B "Just call me if anything changes or if you need some sleep" He said. "Don't be too hard on yourself" He said again then looked up at the computer one last time before walking out of the room and towards his.
"Pleasant night Beast Boy" Starfire said kindly then also walked out, though with some hesitation.
Robin nodded. "Don't beat yourself up over this," he said before walking out after Starfire.
Only Raven was left. She looked over at Beast Boy. "She'll be okay," she said before starting to the door. "Night Beast Boy," she added.
Beast Boy still remained standing there and not speaking a word. Though trying to take in there advice. It was hard though. With no one else to blame but Slade he only had himself to blame. He put a good deal of it on Slade but there was plenty to go around in his mind.
"Good end of day" Starfire told her friends quickly before turning around flying to her room where she plopped down on her bed and was asleep within half a second of doing so.
"Night Star," Robin said to her before heading off to his own room. He didn't bother to change. He pulled his boots off, and that was about it. He fell asleep seconds later.
Raven went to her room quietly. She said nothing to anyone. She closed her door behind her and lay down on her bed. She lay there and thought for a few minutes before finally falling asleep.
