CHAPTER 5-Painful memories

"What are you talking about" Sage demanded.

"Just what I said, dear girl." Slade said with a smile hidden under his mask.

Sage shivered at him calling her, 'dear girl.' "Don't call me tha…" She didn't finish her sentence, before everything went white. Memories she thought she had hidden, buried, destroyed even, came back to her now.

"You've got to do something soon." Someone said from behind a door.

"Do I?" Another voice answered.

"SHE IS THE CAUSE OF OUR PAIN, MISERY AND SUFFERING, WHILE YOU ARE TRYING TO PROTECT HER FROM HERSELF, YOU ARE LEAVING YOURSELF AND ANYONE AROUND YOU VULNERABLE." A woman yelled at another person.

"Shhh, she'll hear you." Another woman desperately tried to quiet the other woman.

"See, here you go again. You're going to have to tell her someday, or something dangerous will happen."

Loud noises were outside, Sage and, her mother were inside of a small room.

"Sage you have to leave here." Her mother was telling her.

"Why?" Sage asked not understanding.

"The people here don't understand you."

"What's there to understand?"

"Your, .. umm, your abilities."

"What abilities? I thought I was normal like everyone else."

"You are, for now, it's just, that, you have, powers that you have yet to grow into."

"I don't understand…"

Her mother pushed her down a small hole, that was apparently an entrance to a small tunnel, and closed to hatch.

When she was in a the tunnel, she heard more loud noises, and what could only be described, by an 8 year old as someone, really big, breaking down the door.

"Where is she?"

"I don't know who you're talking about."

"Yes you do. Where is your daughter?"

"Why, do you need to know?"

"You are not going to tell us are you?"

"No, you catch on quick, for being such a dunce."

"Fine, I didn't want to do this but, you leave us no choice…"

Sage cringed at the sound that came next…

A gunshot rang through the air, followed by a blood-curdling scream.

Silent tears streamed down her face has she ran through the tunnel, she knew her mother was gone.

The memories dissipated. Sage fell to her knees. Everyone, except Johnny Rancid and the Teen Titans, approached her. Sage looked up, her eyes a swirling mixture of red and black, bore into each of them, but they continued to move closer and closer until they were a foot away. Beast Boy ran to help, but he and the other titans were blocked by 50 of Slade's robot, 'groupies' and a scorched Johnny Rancid.

"BACK OFF!" The Titans, the robots, and Johnny all stopped fighting and looked over to where Sage once was. Now, it was occupied by a huge fireball, and in the middle was Sage. All of the villains ran screaming, because they were on fire!.

Finally the fire died, and once again Sage fell to her knees. This time Beast Boy ran to her side and hugged her. She was surprisingly cold, you know, for just being in a fireball!

This time Slade himself came down, to strike when she was vulnerable. Beast Boy stood up in front of her, arms out, to protect her.

"Leave her alone."

"Why would I do that, when she harbors amazing powers?"

With that they started fighting,

Sage looked up startled, no one had ever tried to protect her before. Beast Boy was thrown to the side by Slade, and didn't move.

"BEAST BOY!" Sage screamed.

She looked at Slade with anger in her eyes. She stood up and threw fireball after fireball after fireball, at him.

"Leave me, us alone." She said fiercely.

Meanwhile, Robin, Cyborg, Raven and Starfire continued their fight with Johnny and the robots. But they just seemed to keep coming and coming. Beast Boy was finally getting up from where he was thrown. He turned into a lion and ran back to help, biting Slades' back. While Beast boy was fighting Slade in the shape of a lion, Sage was running at him head on, full force She jumped into the air right before she reached him. She flipped over him and caught his kick and punch, before he could hurt BB. She sent him flying with a kick of her own, and ran after him. She started fire punching him in the gut.

"That's for the first painful memory, that's for the second painful memory," she screamed as she puched him, "This is for everything," punch, "this is for hurting Beast Boy," punch.

Finally, Beast Boy grabbed her arms before she ended up killing him. Tears were streaming down her angry face. She struggled for a few seconds, and started struggling even harder when he started getting up. Robin, and the rest of the titans, were about to bring him down again, but more robots came and let him escape. Sage turned around into Beat Boy's chest. She saw Slade running.

"I'll get you for this Slade." She whispered.
