Part I
"All is going according to plan." A man said, only his silhouette visible. The room was dark, only one torch in the center and a monitor in the wall provided light. He chuckled as he watched the screen on the wall next to him. "They're practically playing into our hands. They don't even know that they're being played like puppets! How fun."
"I wouldn't get cocky if I were you, Armegeddon. I know the Titans better then the two of you. They are very resourceful."
"But so are you, Slade."
"True. I do keep them busy with my android copies, but not even I have enough money to keep making them. All the banks in the US wouldn't have enough money to make even two of them, Sirus."
"What do you suppose we do about this problem then, Slade?"
"Face them head on. Beastboy is a key member of the Titans. I'm glad you were able to possess Terra at the right moment, when that menace Fate gave her those two choices. If she had chosen to go back to her old life, we all might as well have jumped off a cliff. With Beastboy out of the picture, Fate occupied with other things, and Terra enjoying her new life, this city, and this world, is ours."
"So… we just sit back and wait?"
"No. We will attack from time to time… but our men will do the work in the time in-between."
… … … … …
"Hey Tara!" Two girls ran up to the former Titan, Terra.
"Hey guys." She said, sounding a bit sad as she spoke.
"You seem sad, what's wrong?" The red-haired girl asked.
"Nothing. We're going to be late for class. Let's go." A face peaked out of a brick wall, totally unseen
"So she is no longer happy? Did I not give her what she wanted?" It was none other then the mysterious creature the Titans were fighting, Fate. "Why does she cry in the midst of the happiness I gave her? What more could she want?" The creature stepped out and morphed into its true form: a man in a black cloak with his face hidden. Only to green eyes were glowing where his face would be. It held a gold staff with a gold ball with silver wings on top of it. "Soon you pain shall cease… the way you want it to, or not. Forlorn Soul, your peace will come soon."
… … … … …
"Maybe she just doesn't want to remember." Those words echoed in Beastboy's head.
"Beastboy, Trouble." Beastboy was silent. "It's Slade." Beastboy seemed to jump up.
"I'm on my way."
END CHAPTERCliffhanger! How will this battle affect Beastboy? What is this Fate guy talking about? All will be answered in Forlorn Soul, Part II. It will be up sometime tomorrow, seeing how I can make a three-page chapter in one half hour. So, no worries. Your wait shall not be long, two days at most.
