Beast Boy was running. Not from a monster, not from a villain but from his friends. They were worried; it was only natural for them. But if they did they'd be doing more harm them good.

"Come on man! We only want to help!" yelled Cyborg.

"You guys want to help? Then stay away and let me do this!" shouted Beast Boy.

Beast Boy then ran into the Jump City Swamp. Who knew they had a swamp?

Just before Beast Boy jumped into the water his friends saw him change into a frog.

"Now we'll never be able to help our friend." Said Starfire sadly (A/N: Try saying that ten times fast.)

"Come on, how hard can it be to find one frog in a swamp?" said Cyborg.

They trudged through the water and when they passed some trees they found a whole breeding ground of frogs.

"Okay this may be a little harder than I thought." Said Cyborg.

Elsewhere…

"I don't see why I have to track down the little runt." Said Mammoth unhappily.

"What are you complaining about barf brains? Your name is Mammoth so I thought you would like it in there." Said Gizmo through a HIVE communicator.

"Just because my name is Mammoth doesn't mean I like to live like one!" said Mammoth making the midget hide behind Jinx.

"Headmaster said that the freak had an evil side in him and he wants it." said Jinx.

"You mean that Beast thing? I know Headmaster told me I had to attack the freak on his que exactly but there is no way how I'm attacking him knowing it might bring that thing out!" said Mammoth.

"Quit being such an idiot! Headmaster already said it wasn't the beast; it has nothing to do with the beast! This is something…else." Said Jinx now realizing she didn't know what they were after.

With Beast Boy…

He had changed back to normal and was now in the hollow of a tree. He then sat and started to meditate. No one and I mean no one knew Beast Boy could meditate. He had more in common with Raven then she would ever know. But the only difference was that Beast Boy wasn't going inside his mind. No. Beast Boy was going inside his very soul.

His eyes then turned white not unlike when he's an animal. And Beast Boy then went inside of himself.

We now see that inside Beast Boy he is standing in front of a large steel door, I mean this door was as big as the Titan's front door. It looked as if it were built to keep something inside.

"Sigh. I never thought I would have to open this door." Said Beast Boy.

He opened the doors and it turned out there was like twenty other doors similar to it behind that one. Beast Boy kept walking and the doors opened as he came in.

After the final door opened up Beast Boy saw another Beast Boy in a cage. But the other Beast Boy looked dark and evil and dwarfed our favorite elf. (A/N: Sorry couldn't resist the puns.)

"You've gotten a lot bigger since the last time I saw you." said Beast Boy.

"Times change, things change, people change." Said the evil one.

"You want to explain to me how you got control again!" asked Beast Boy seriously.

"Ever since that incident with the helmet I've been growing stronger each and every day." Said Evil. (A/N: let's just call him evil.)

"That was a long time ago since the Doom Patrol destroyed it." said Beast Boy.

"Yes but the demons you changed into still live within. And they give me power." Said Evil.

"You got out once and I put you away! And when I put you away you stay put got it!" said Beast Boy.

"Maybe I wouldn't be so restless if you let me out once in a while!" said Evil.

"Dude! That's way too risky!" said Beast Boy.

"Let me out!" shouted evil.

"Never!" shouted back Beast Boy.

Meanwhile outside…

Mammoth had found Beast Boy.

"Found him. Uh what do I do now?" asked Mammoth.

"According to the headmaster you're supposed to bring him out of his meditative state." Said Jinx.

"Um okay. How do I do that?" asked Mammoth.

"I don't know! Hit him!" said Gizmo.

Mammoth then punched Beast Boy through the tree.

Inside…

The entire place started to shake and Evil's cage toppled over opening the door. Evil leaped out of the cage and pounced on Beast Boy. Evil then wrapped his hands around Beast Boy's throat. Beast Boy tried to throw him off but to no avail.

"You can't beat me! Not here! Not alone! Not anymore!" said Evil trying to choke Beast Boy.

"Who says…I'm in here…alone?" said Beast Boy choking out the words.

Snap.

"ROOOOOOOOOAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRR!"

Evil was then tackled by the Beast Within. The Beast then started to pound on Evil but Evil managed to kick him off and back flip away.

"Since when was he here!" asked a surprised but angered Evil.

"It's like you said Times change, things change, people change. At first I thought he was just another version of you. But now I realize that all he wants to do is help. Although he does still need to learn the difference between friend and foe!" said Beast Boy sternly.

The Beast then gave an uneasy smile and rubbed the back of his neck.

"And with his help I'll beat you!" said Beast Boy determined.

"Stupid, stupid, stupid Gar. You should have learned by now that for every good, there is an evil." Said Evil.

Snap.

Then what should come out but another Beast Within. Only this one looked evil and was black.

Both Beast Boy and the Beast Within were stunned. Which unfortunately was their down fall as the Evil Beast drop kicked them both into the cage that Evil escaped from. Evil then slammed the door shut and welded it.

"Now! I banish the both of you to the inner recess of the soul! Never to return!" shouted Evil.

The cage then fell for what seemed like an eternity.

Two hours later in the swamp…

Starfire spotted something in the water and pulled out her Titan communicator.

The other Titans came over and found out it was a body.

"It's…Mammoth." Said Raven.

"He's half dead." Said Cyborg.

Then Starfire spotted something green.

"It is friend Beast Boy!" shouted Starfire happily.

She flew over and hugged him.

"Oh friend Beast Boy we were…" started Starfire.

But what was presumably Beast Boy elbowed her in the face right to the ground.

"Yo man, what is your problem BB?" asked Cyborg.

"She was only worried about you like the rest of us! You should be ashamed of yourself Beast Boy!" said an angry Robin.

The shape shifter didn't even flinch.

"Friend Beast Boy?" asked a worried Starfire.

"No. I'm not Beast Boy, and I'm not your friend." Said the changeling with an ice cold voice.

"What are you talking about? Of course you're Beast Boy." Said Raven.

Beast Boy turned around and showed them he had glowing red eyes.

"Beast Boy doesn't live here anymore." Said Evil.

Me: "Cliffhanger! Oh did that send chills down your spine? Hope it did. See ya next time I update."
