Chapter 2
The tide came in slowly, splashing up agesnt the rocks that lined the island shore. The silver and gray dabbled moon hung up above and gave the lake its silvery reflection.
A gloved hand scanned the top of the water, not touching it entirely but it was enough for the water to ripple under it. The hand took its self back to the body it was attached too and placed it's self on the knee.
Beast Boy watched the waters ripples grow larger and larger then disappear. He had ignored the others for now; his mind was too full to talk to anyone at the moment. He was growing up, he had learned a lot. Learned how to be a leader, and how to push himself farther. He learned the hardships of being a hero, and the rewards of it. But, now was he learning something new? The pain in his chest was more then any other pain he had felt for a long time. It was worse then the burses on his body from fights, it was deeper. It was heart break. It swelled inside his chest so he thought he couldn't breathe sometimes. It stung at certain memories and put a lump in his throat.
Beast Boy looked up at the night sky. A few stars where visible out here, being farther from the bright city lights. Even though it hurt, almost everything seemed to be reminding him of 'her'.
FLASHBACK:
I'm bath boot! No uh Boy Beast!" He had stuttered.
"Beast Boy?" Terra asked with a tint of laughter in her voice
"Eep!" At the sound of his name coming from her mouth he had a sudden feeling in his gut that made him freak out.
"Dude! He's hilarious!" Terra laughed.
----
"You said you would be my friend! No matter what!" Terra had cried in the house of mirrors.
"Slade was right, you don't have any friends" He had turned his back on her out of anger and confusion. He was so confused at the time, and was feeling something a lot like now... what was it called? Heart break, that's it.
------
"You where the best friend... I ever had" Terra had whispered while in his arms for the last time. Her eyes watered with tears as she let go to do what she had too. He watched her for as long as the other Titans would allow, watched her drain her own power to save them all.
END.
Beast Boy sighed again not knowing what to make of it all, why did she want to forget them?
"She does not want to remember you" Slade had said.
But why? Why would she want to forget them all! Beast Boy just didn't know, he thought they had something, but as he had heard someone say before: "life is full of disappointments."
Tara slipped her tenni shoes on and walked outside. It was bed time for everyone in the house so she was the only one up. She needed fresh air, she needed to think.
Tara was greeted with the cool wind splashing onto her face, she didn't mind. It was getting hot in the house anyways. Her arms cradled her sides as she sat down on the porch steps. Her hair covered most of the scar on her face and no one was out this time on a school night. So she didn't worry about any unwanted visitors showing up.
What do you want? The voice asked.
I want a home, I want friends, and I want to forget everything I used to be.
You were right on the first few, now is honest, what do you want? It nagged.
Tara sighed, what did she truly want? She had a home, she had friends. But was that all she truly honestly wanted? What was missing? What did someone need in this world?
I want... I want love. I want control; I want to be who I really am.
You had a home, you had five wonderful friends, and you had love. Why did you leave it? What is here for you, Terra?
I had, I don't anymore! And I'm not Terra! I can't be that person anymore! I can't be-
Yes you can! You choose not too! You choose to forget! You choose to think they don't want you! Don't tell me you can't, it's never too late Terra, you still have a chance. You choose to ignore it. That scar says it all, you can run from what was and what could still be, but you can never forget what happened. The voice died down, leaving the words to sink into Tara.
Tara felt her eyes start to water, what did she want? What made this such a hard choice? What did she need? What was best?
She hung her head so it was held up by her knees which had come up to her chest, trying not to cry as she thought about those questions, and struggled to find answers.
