Chapter Ten: Terra

"Soon my sweet. Soon." was the only words that Slade said. The Mark of Scath was just the starting point. There was much work to be done. The child needed to be cleansed. And Slade will make sure of it even if he has to do it the hard way.

'I hope you don't mind another visit my dear.' Thought Slade.

OUTSIDE

Garfield worried about Raven. Her face kept on flashing back to him. He wanted to check on her but was order not to since she was still in a state of shock. Sighing Garfield made his way onto the next room.

'I hope she's doing alright' Garfield thought. He opened the door and saw a young blonde girl sitting on her bed looking at the walls.

"Hello Dr. Garfield. Checking up on me I see." Said the young girl.

"Hello Terra. And how are we today?"

"Hmm...ok." Terra said still not looking at Garfield.

"I see. You weren't bothered by the noise last night?"

"Noise? Oh you mean when Slade broke out to see the new girl? Nope wasn't bothered at all." Terra now looked at Garfield with a small smile. Deep down inside she still had a crush on him.

"How did you know that?" Garfield asked now taking a seat on a chair.

"Oh I hear him talking away about her. Saying that she needed to be cleansed. Don't know what he means. It's all freaky if you ask me. But you didn't."

That was Terra for you. Always putting in her two cents even if she wasn't asked. Sometimes it was a good thing. Most of the time though it was just annoying.

"Cleansed? What does he mean by that?" Garfield was getting cold chills down his spine.

"Eh I really don't know. That guy is freaky though. Starts laughing for no reason. And mumbling all the time. I only catch a few words here and there." Terra eyed Garfield. She loved the way his eyes were. Green and friendly.

"I see. Anything else about him that I should know about?"

"Nothing new to report. Just the same old Slade." Terra then started thinking.

"Hey you got the hots for the new girl don't ya?"

Garfields head picked up as fast as lighting. A small blush came across his face.

"No I don't have the hots for her."

"Ya you do. You keep asking all these questions. And last night if I recall you two were laughing." Terra had a small grin on her face.

"Because she said a funny joke." Garfield tried to play it cool.

"Sure and the muffin man lives down the hall." Terra joked. This was Terra. A young girl who knew how to put a smile on your face. Couldn't keep to herself when she talks to Garfield. They act like brother and sister. Garfield being the older brother, and Terra being the younger sister.
It was times like these that Garfield loved. If he had a hard day he would vist Terra and talk to her. He also knows that she has a small crush on him but he doesn't mind.

"In fact he does." Garfield added.

"Yeah and his name is Slade." Again Terra joked. They both laughed for a bit. Laughing was the best way to take on a day. After they were done joking Garfield and Terra talked a little more. After two hours pasted it was time to say good bye.

"See ya tomorrow Terra." Garfield said while waving good bye.

"Bye Garfield. Tell your girlfriend I said hi." Terra said with a grin.

Garfield closed the door and had a small smile on his face.

'Maybe she is my girlfriend.' He thought. He walked down the hallway and passed Slades room. Fear and sadness washed over his body. For now he remembered what Terra had told him.

"Oh you mean when Slade broke out to see the new girl?"

"I hear him talking away about her. Saying that she needed to be cleansed. Don't know what he means. It's all freaky if you ask me. But you didn't."

"Cleansed? What the heck does he mean by that?" Garfield whispered. Whatever it was he wasn't going to allow it to happen. He had to see Victor right away. Slade was not going to hurt Raven again.
