pxleno52 : She's not going to die very soon, and she'll probably not die ever in this story. But I can guarantee you by the end of the story, you will want her to die.

TerraxBeastBoyFan : Thanks for the support. Beast Boy isn't 'falling' for Ursula as it may seem. I believe it's the other way around. Ursula's following for him or at least just to get back at Terra for things even she might not be aware of.

PrincessAelitaLyoko : Thank you, not much to say here. But here is the next chapter :)

Rigmus : Thanks, once again for your continuous reviews :)


Tianimalz : Haha, thanks. Well, of course she will in the end. Always.

JesusTitanFreak : Beware for she is not what she seems :)

Nuclearchino : Thank you for the support and review. Hurray. Hope you enjoy this one.

Wow, I actually had this chapter finished like a while ago, I just didn't know why I decided not to upload it.

Anyways, the previous 2 chapters were foundation chapters, meaning they really hadn't anything to do with the rest of the story. Regrettably so is this chapter but it does move a little more fast-paced that the last two.

Oh, yea, and the reason I asked for your opinion on Ursula was because I want to make her extremely hateable which is what I'm going to do in this chapter. Obviously, I don't want her hateable just because she's making moves on Beast Boy, no, I want her to be despisable just for the sake of her attitude toward things. Hopefully, you guys will come around and see what I mean by Chapter 4.

Chapter III : Undermining Commences Pt 1

Tap-Tap.

"Just look at her…"

Tap-Tap.

"With her little smug face..."

Tap-Tap.

"Uh, Terra, she's smiling. And stop tapping the spoon, it's getting annoying."

"Cyborg, she's not only smiling at me, she's taunting me."

"Terra, she's just reading a book."

"Sure…"

"Uh, Terra, she's just staying here for a day. Why do you hate her so much already?"

"It's not that I hate her but it's just that…I…I…yea, you're right I hate her."

"Why, again?"

"Ahhh, I don't know, she's just so upbeat when there's nothing to be upbeat about."

"Terra, you can't blame somebody for being who they are. That's like saying you don't like her because she has brown hair."

"Cyborg, who's side are you on?"

"Nobody's. I'm just stating facts for you to sort out. And remind me why you're sitting on the kitchen table, tapping spoons?"

"Cyborg, what – look, Cyborg, she's getting up…"

"So?"

"She's coming this way…"

"Yea, Terra, I have eyes, er, - eye. I can see perfectly well is the point."

Walking past the two, Ursula waved to Cyborg. "Hi Cyborg. Hey Terra. What are you guys doing?"

"That's my question?"

"Uhh…okay. I'm going to go…to my room. Later."

As she faded out from earshot, I couldn't help but erupt into rants and sputtering of words.

"She-she-she has a room?"

"Yea…"

"I thought she was staying for a day!"

"Yea…thing is Terra, people need a place to sleep."

"Can't she sleep outside?"

"Well, we were going to have her camp out at the couches but Beast Boy offered her a spot in his room. And well, she agreed."

"WHAAAATTTT?"

"What."

"WHAAAAT?"

"Terra, I'm glad you have a great range of vocabulary words. Seriously, what."

"Beast Boy did what?"

"Beast Boy lent part of his room to her. I mean, I think that's unsanitary considering the conditions he lives in, but I guess Ursula isn't a neat-freak either."

Shaking my head in disbelief, I strolled over to the refrigerator and grabbed another cup of ice cream to put down my troubles.

"Cyborg, you know what people can do in the same room?"

"Uh…sleep in the same bed when they're tired? Uh…"

"TOGETHER."

"Huh?"

"People can sleep together, Cyborg."

"Oh – what, Ursula, what, Beast Boy, ooohhhh I see what this is about. You're jealous."

"No, I'm not jealous! I'm serious here. I'm actually concerned for Beast Boy's welfare."

"Terra, I can add two and two together. First, you don't like her for her upbeat attitude. Now, I don't see you talking about Starfire behind her back. Second, you hate her for sharing a room with Beast Boy. It's a nice gesture, that's all. Plus, Ursula and Beast Boy are different. Like she's so… you know… And Beast Boy's so… you know."

"Cyborg! Didn't you see how she was all close with Beast Boy the first time she met him? She doesn't even the know the guy!"

"Terra, I think you need to take a sedative. You're getting worked up about nothing."

"Oh, my, god, Cyborg. Don't you see? She's trying to steal Beast Boy from me!"

"Ah-ha! So this is about jealousy."

"Cyborg, just listen to me. I have my reasons and they're good ones."

Plugging up his ears and singing random notes in an effort to ignore me, Cyborg walked away.

"Ugh…guys just don't understand. I need to talk to a girl…"

Knocking upon Starfire's room, I waited patiently in front of it.

"Terra! Friend. Come in! Do you wish to talk?"

"Uh, yea, actually, I do."

"Good! I have not talked to you for so long! Please make yourself comfortable in my hospitalities!"

"Uh, yea. Starfire…"

"Hm?"

"What would you do…"

"Yes, I am listening."

"What would you do if a girl you barely knew started hitting it off really good with Robin."

Instantly, eyes glowing green in fury, her mood changed drastically and I knew, all too late, I had asked a wrong question to a wrong girl and a perfectly wrong time. Of course, Starfire didn't know what hypothetical questions were…

"WHO IS THIS GIRL?"

"Starfire, relax, it's hypothetical."

"Who is Hypothetical!"

"Starfire, I just want your opinion that's all! Calm down."

Motioning toward the door in her angered state, Starfire's rage seemed nightmarish and yet all so childish. So, she, too, was a victim to jealousy…

"I shall strangle this Hypothetical! She will not touch my Robin! Even better, I shall force-feed her Glumptious Bloreaters and watch her face suffer!"

"No, Starfire, wait!"

Already setted off, the last things I heard from Starfire was

"Hypothetical where are you! Show yourself! I shall chase you, catch you, and kick the butt!"

Sighing, I added a mental note not to converse such "problems" with alien girls. Walking out the door, I caught a sight. Two people were walking side by side opposite my direction.

"Terra, hey." Beast Boy's eyes lightened up when he saw me standing in front of Starfire's door. "Uh, what are you doing in Star's room?"

"Oh… just a bit of girl talk. You know."

"Um, sure! Ursula and I were just about to go to the mall. You wanna come?" And to that question, I could feel my face pale. I took a moment to absorb my thoughts and his question. I couldn't afford to sound stupid in front of Ursula…

"Beast Boy, I thought that was our thing…"

"Yea, I know, but Ursula's going to be here for a day and you know, I'd like to show her around. She's not very familiar with the surroundings of Jump City."

And once more, my thought process decreased tremendously as his two sentenced word befuddled me. My mouth gaped wide open as if in shock. No, not as if. I was in a state of shock.

And taking advantage of this was Ursula who held another one of her smirks.

"Beast Boy, obviously she doesn't want to go. Look at her, you're making her feel uncomfortable. I think it's best that you and I go alone, without her. She can stay back and talk to Cyborg or something – maybe help him brush up the T-car."

Realizing that my response was being taken advantage of, I quickly reacted.

"No-no, I'll go."

Beast Boy, who had seemed pretty down after I said nothing suddenly brightened up again with a smile.

"Great, Terra! Anything you need to do before we go?"

"Uh, yea, hold on, lemme go take a shower first."

Ursula, who still held that smirk ever so malovelently simply watched me turn back to my room, but not before saying one last comment.

"I bet you do, filth."

And perhaps Beast Boy heard it, perhaps he didn't but whatever the case he sure didn't say anything about it. And I sure heard it and it made my blood boil…

Relax Terra, she's just trying to get you steamed up before you go to the mall with Beast Boy. Stay calm. Just breathe…

NO, don't turn your eyes yellow…that's right…unclench your fist, calm down…

And just as a turned the corner, I heard Ursula talk yet again.

"Hold on, Beast Boy, I have to… attend to certain things…"

I dismissed what Ursula had said but I couldn't help but think 'attend to certain things…'

And just that moment, I felt a swift gust of wind pass by as it breezed against my skin, but no windows were open nearby.

"Strange", I muttered to myself but before I could continue those trains of thoughts, I was interrupted by a commotion.

"ARE YOU HYPOTHETICAL!"

"No, Star, wait calm down. Star, I'm Cyb-"

"SO YOU ARE! TAKE THIS"

"AHHHHH"

"You will not touch Robin!"

"No, no, Star. No, not those! No, Star, I'm straight, I swear. No Star, I know those taste horrible. Starrrr!"

Another gust of wind breezed against my skin as I neared my room. And that was not the only peculiar happening, the door to my room was also opened, and I could have sworn that I closed it…

"Eh, I probably remembered it wrong. Maybe I dreamt it or something…"

But despite all my avoidances to the obvious, I knew inside there was something deeply wrong with these situations…

"Oh, well"

And that was my last thought of the peculiarity of those two breezes before I entered the shower.

- - - - - - - - - - - -

"Are you kidding me…" Cyborg's voice was choked up and almost incoherent.

"I'm sorry friend Cyborg, I did not know it was you. I believed you were Hypothetical." Starfire's voice portruded as deeply remorseful.

"Ahhhh…I don't thinik I'll ever eat again.." Cyborg clenched his stomach. "That was some extremely disgusting food…"

"Once again, friend Cyborg, I am truly sorry for the misunderstanding."

"It's okay, Star, it's entirely understandable. You thought I was some girl named Hypothetical who had made a move on Robin and yet somehow camouflaged to look like a huge robot teen working on a T-car. Once again, entirely understandable."

"Hey Starfire, may I borrow your oven mitts for something? I'll put em back when I'm done." Ursula, who had popped in, saw a seemingly injured Cyborg and a sad Starfire, but she didn't ask any questions.

"Of course, friend Ursula. Do as you wish but I must tend to friend Cyborg and his stomach."

"Thanks…"

- - - - - - - - - - - - -

As I exited the shower, and redressed myself, I yet again noticed another thing that seemed out of place. My alarm seemed shifted but nothing was altered but it's position. I simply shrugged it off before opening the door.

"Terra! Hey." The voice came from Beast Boy who apparently had been waiting for me outside.

"Woah! I mean, hi Beast Boy, scared me for a moment there."

"Look, Terra, I've wanted to ask you something for a long time…"

Yes! Score! Was this it? Was he finally going to ask me out? I looked at him apprehensively…

"… and I know this might not be the right time and all, you know with Ursula around but… I figured I would have to ask you sooner or later…"

"Yea…?" It certainly sounded like he was about to ask me out. I sincerely hoped so at least.

"Well, would you like to go…"

"BEAST BOY! There you are. And obviously, Terra's ready also. Been looking for you guys all over…" Ursula butted in our conversation or what may have been an 'asking out'. I couldn't help but groan at her arrival.

"You guys want to go now? I don't have all day. And plus, Terra can stay clean for only so long."

You always have something to say don't you…

"Well, Terra… I guess I'll have to talk to you about it later." Beast Boy smiled at me, one of those smiles where I knew he somehow did like me…I couldn't really explain but inside I really knew that he favored me over Ursula.

"Talk about what…" Ursula seemed to have a knack for intruding on other people's conversations and business. There was a word for that – nosy. Yes, she was very nosy…

"Uh, nothing, Ursula, let's get going."

And for a once-in-a-lifetime moment, well at least for me, I saw Ursula's ever-clever smirk turn into a look of hatred, which was directed at me. But I didn't care, Beast Boy had or was going to ask me out. And that meant everything to me.

Terra scores 1

Ursula stays at 0

At least... for now..
