Disclaimer: No, I do NOT own the Teen Titans.


Chapter Eight: Slasher
Terra was pleasantly surprised to see Raven, she was not expecting anyone in the hall at such a late hour. This was just the time Terra had been waiting for, no one was around to hear them talking. Terra smiled evilly as she walked down the hall towards Raven.

Raven, on the other hand, would rather be any where but down this halls. She was going to try and ignore her, but when Raven spotted Terra's cruel smile she knew that any effort to avoid the evil girl would be futile. She made sure to refrain from any eye contact with the menacing blonde. Raven passed her and breathed a sigh of relief, which she soon came to regret.

"Hey Raven, I've been meaning to talk to you." Raven stopped in her tracks and slowly turned around to face the girl that had addressed her.

"Yeah? What do you want?" Raven tried to sound as cold as possible.

Terra's devilish grin grew much wider. "You know Raven, know that I am back the Titans really don't need you around anymore. I mean no one likes you and you have no real friends, what is the point of sticking around here? You should just end your pitiful existence, they is really no reason for you to go on living this lie."

"You don't know anything, you are the one who doesn't belong. You don't know anything about me or the Titans," Raven hissed back. Her blood began to boil and she tried her best not to lose control.

"I know that Beast Boy loves me, he just told me the other day." Terra now had Raven exactly where she wanted her and now it was time to go in for the kill. "Face it Raven, Beast Boy loves, me not you. I don't blame him, who could ever love a witch like you? They are all just afraid of you. You cause them pain every day, Raven, you are a monster."

"Shut up!" Raven yelled. She became blinded by anger.

"Do you enjoy causing them pain? If you truly are their friend you will kill yourself now and stop their suffering. You are a demon who doesn't deserve to live." Terra knew her plan had worked, it was only a matter of time before she would be free of the witch.

"No," Raven whispered. Her anger slowly melted into sadness and she tried her best not to cry. She couldn't let Terra have the satisfaction of seeing her cry. Her eyes burned and then a lone tear escaped, rolling down her pale cheek. She knew everything Terra had said was a lie, why did it get to her like this? She felt so weak. Raven turned around and ran right to her room, as several light bulbs shattered behind her. Terra also noticed the glass of the giant window next to her had large cracks running on over it's normally smooth surface.

Terra once again had that demonic grin on her face as she turned around and happily strolled down the hallway towards her room.

Her room was dark except for the moon light that shone through the large window. Terra was about to turn on the lights when she noticed a shadow in front of the window.

"Hello?" she wasn't sure what the shadow was and fear began to engulf her.

"Hello Terra," the creature had a deep booming voice that could make anyone's blood run cold. "I have been watching you for some time now. I must say Terra I am most impressed, you really have a way with words."

"Who are you?" Terra asked trying her best not to sound scared.

"They call me Slasher," he was very tall and rather slim.

"Why are you here- what do you want?"

"I want the same thing you want Terra, for Raven to be gone," he said it in a bit of a chuckle.

"Why are you here?" Terra's question was blunt.

"Because I want you to get rid of her for me and I will help you."

"Why do you want her gone?"

"So many questions, they will all be answered, in time. But first, I must know if will you help me? If you do I promise that she will never bother you again and once she is gone I will leave."

Terra considered it, "I will work with you."

"Excellent. I will keep in touch and until then, don't do anything without my orders." The shadow then disappeared.

The next day Terra walked into the main room with a huge smile on her and a bounce in her step. She was greeted by Beast Boy, sitting on the couch, and Cyborg, in the kitchen making breakfast. Starfire and Robin were over at the table quietly discussing something.

"Hey, why are you so happy?" greeted Beast Boy.

Terra hopped over the back of the couch and plopped down next to her boy friend. "Cause you are all mine," Terra said playfully, while cuddling with him.

"I knew that. The ladies can't resist the pointy ears," he wiggled his ears after the statement, which was equally playful.

Terra giggled, "You're right." Terra pushed her lips against his in a passionate kiss.

"Hey do you guys mind?" Cyborg asked from the kitchen, seeing their public display of affection made him feel very awkward.

They stopped for a moment to speak. "No!" they yelled in unison and continued what they were doing a moment ago.

Right at that moment Raven walked through the hydraulic doors. Her eyes grew wide when she saw Beast Boy and Terra kissing so passionately.

Cyborg immediately spotted Raven when she walked in. "Hey Rae, I didn't see you last night. Everything all right?"

Raven didn't respond she just whipped around and dashed back through the door.

"What was that about?" Cyborg asked out loud.

Terra and Beast Boy had taken a break and were currently watching the televison screen. "I have no idea," Terra lied to her team mates.

"Perhaps I should have 'the talk' with her," Starfire joined the conversation.

"That wouldn't be a bad idea Star," Robin agreed with the alien princess.

Starfire nodded at Robin before flying through the doors Raven had just exited.

Starfire quickly reached Raven's room and didn't hesitate to bang on the door. "Raven? It is I Starfire. I wish to talk to you," Starfire said through the door.

Raven had been crying, something she never did and knew she shouldn't, Terra's words were still ringing in her head. Raven wiped away her tears and pulled up her hood as she walked over to the door and slid it open to see an overly cheery Strafire. "What?"Raven asked, her voice was extremely cold with no hint of emotion, which would take most people years to master.

"May I come in?" Starfire tried to become more serious and suppressed a little squeak that was bound to come out.

Raven looked over her shoulder, her room was thrashed from her unruly powers. She knew how dangerous it was for her to cry, but she couldn't help it. Terra's words had cut Raven like a sharp knife.

"It's kind of messy in there, can we just talk in the hall?"

"Okay." Raven stepped out and shut the door behind her.

"What do you want?" No one could have guessed Raven had just been crying.

"Is everything alright, Raven?" Starfire asked with concern in her voice.

"Why wouldn't it be?" Raven requested suspiciously.

"Well you have been staying in your room more than normal and just this morning you ran out of the room of living."

"I just... I haven't been feeling very well lately," she figured it wasn't a total lie.

"Are you sick?"

"Uh... a little," Raven knew she couldn't get sick, but she figured Starfire probably didn't know.

Raven was a good actor, but Starfire knew she was lying. "Raven, you can trust me. I won't tell anyone if you don't want me to."

"I am fine," Raven growled.

"I do not mean to anger you, Raven, I am just concerned. I am sorry."

"It's okay, Starfire, I will be fine. I'm probably just tired," Raven's voice softened.

"If you are certain, but if you do want to talk, I am here."

"Thanks, Starfire," right after she thanked her Starfire caught her in her infamous death-grip hug. "I... can't... breathe..., Starfire."

Starfire squeaked and released Raven, "My apologies friend, I did not mean to harm you."

"It's ok, just please don't do it again." Starfire began to blush and fidgeted nervously. Raven just turned and reentered her room without another word.

'I don't want them to know what Terra said to me. I don't want them to worry. Terra will just lie and manipulate them like she did before, anyway. I can't let them find out that I love Beast Boy, if I actually do.' Raven thought as she slipped back into her room. She leaned against her door and slowly slid down so her knees were in front of her chest. She sighed and set her head on her knees.

"I can never tell them, especially Beast Boy," Raven promised.

Starfire knew Raven had been lying, she may be naive sometimes, but she wasn't just plain stupid. What was Raven hiding form them? Starfire needed to know.


A/N: Okay that talk between Raven and Starfire seemed kind of weird, please tell me what you think. It just didn't feel good, I really struggled on that part. I hope you liked Slasher, he will appear a lot more in this story. I have been updating pretty much every day, but I don't know if maybe that is too fast, tell me what you think. REVIEW DAMN IT!

Ravenmasteroftele: Who knows, maybe we could team up to enslave the human race and can become master of this insignificant planet. That has always been a dream of mine.

Yokie: Terror, I like that, that is a good one. My friends and family often tell me I am evil, too. So I am used to it. :)

DreamHaunter: Don't hate me cause I am brilliant, hate mecause I am annoying.

Bb-and-raven-rock: The story shall only get better, I hope.

Anjeli: If I write any faster my fingers might catch on fire:)

FAINTbattleCRY: We start at sunset tomorrow. Oh wait, we probably don't even live in the same state, maybe even country. Hmm... We should probably figure out how this is going to work first.

Monitor Supreme: There you go, you get a villain. Slasher is a little lame, but he was all I could come up with. And I didn't plan on my story having any weather vanes in it, but you never know.

KuroNeko1392: At least someone appreciates my cliffhanger. Just review when you can. YES!
