YO! Kay, so this chapter is rated "T" for strong language and because it mentions rape/sexual abuse. So, now that's out of the way, if you read, please reveiw. It's only polite.

Yeah, if I owned TT, Terra would have died a while ago.

Anywho, READ ON!


"Terra! Stop! We don't wanna hurt you!" Robin called.

"Yea, girl, what's up with you? Last time we saw you, you had just turned to stone after HELPING us. D'you even 'member that?" Cy asked, baffled.

"Course I remember, Cy." Terra actually seemed to regret working with Slade, and hurting them. Of course, looks can be deceiving. "But then that WEIRD guy helped me, SAVED me, he told me about all he'd gained from being bad. Sex, money… It made me realize." The boys all stared at her blankly. "Crime DOES pay!"

"Not." Raven called, sending four more vehicles and the sign from the jewelry store at her head. Starfire then seized her chance and shot starbolts at her, causing her to fall off of her pedestal of stone. Robin caught her and tied her hands and feet, while Cyborg called the police on his arm.

Terra scoffed at the team. "What, BeastBoy, no confused looks? No 'why'd you do it, Terra'" She mimicked his voice as she said this last part.

"Dude, maybe you should shut up." Cyborg called to her.

"What? You think BB here's gonna hurt me?" She scoffed.

"Um… no. But, uh, Raven might."

The rest of the team (plus Terra) turned to see a black aura around Raven, her eyes turning blood red.

"Woah, Rae, calm down!" Robin said, putting a hand on her back to comfort her. As soon as he touched her, though, another set of eyes opened on her face and she turned to him, obviously pissed.

"Rae!" BB yelled, grabbing her arm. She turned to him, getting ready to turn him into a pile of green ash, when the concerned look on his face made her soften. She turned back to her normal self (if you could call anything about her normal) and blinked several times, trying to clear her mind. It was no use, though. He had just reminded her of the dream. God, that dream!

FLASHBACK:

She had just come home from her first day of her new school. Not fun. And to top it all off, HE was there. The jackass. She was crying when she walked in, but stiffened when she saw him.

"Awwwwwwwwww, Sweetie, did you have a bad day? Why don't you come tell your uncle ALL about it."

"How about I tell you to GO FUCK YOURSELF!"

He hit her, right across her face. "For that language, girl, you deserve what you're about to get!" He yelled at her, and threw her into her room. He pushed onto the bed, and started taking her top off.

Then, out of nowhere, BEASTBOY barged in, beat the crap out of him, called the police, and got her the hell out of there, kissing her tears away.

END FLASHBACK

The main memory was real, but the part about BeastBoy, the whole knight in shining armor thing, was an invention of her own mind.

"Hmmmmmmmmm…" She sighed.

"Um, you okay?" BB asked. She had been standing, dazed, for a while now. He was seriously worried.

"Yeah, I guess I'm fine." She said, shaking off the aftereffects of the memory. "C'mon, let's go home, BeastBoy." She said, sounding oddly… affectionate.


Back at the tower, Raven disappeared immediately to her room.

"Um, don't you think she should be trying to help us find out who the weird guy who helped Terra is?" Cy asked.

"Actually, I think she is. If I know Raven (which I sorta do) she got a hunch from what Terra said. She's gonna go to jail and get Terra to describe him more. Which means she's probably leaving… now."

"Much as I hate to admit this… BeastBoy might actually be… right."


Raven walked up to Terra's cell. "What did he look like?" She demanded in her usual monotone.

"Why would I tell you? It's not like I'd get anything from it."

"If you give me his face, I won't make them put you in a cell with the most dangerous criminals. You know, the ones that have killed ALL of their other roommates within a week of their arrival."

"On second thought, he was a REALLY tall guy with orange skin and four creepy eyes."

"I knew it!" Raven angrily stalked off.


Back at the tower, BeastBoy walked past Raven's Room, to find that, shockingly, the door was partially opened.

Raven stood there, wearing flared black jeans with silver flames on the cuffs, and a black long sleeved v-neck with silver flames on the right sleeve and blue flames on the left sleeve. She added a necklace with a rectangular charm on it that she tucked under her shirt, a large, silver, Gothic cross and her look was complete.

BeastBoy gasped. She looked beautiful. No, more than beautiful. Stunning (which, if you asked him, was still an understatement).

She grabbed a dark blue denim jacket and headed for the door. BeastBoy, about to be caught, quickly turned into a fly and decided to follow her. Raven scanned the hallway, and, not seeing anyone, walked out the back door of the tower, with BB in tow.


He followed Raven into the center of town, to a remote nightclub. Raven went in through the entertainment entrance, and BeastBoy went through the front. As soon as he was inside, he transformed back into a boy and saw a large sign that said "Rae" with a picture that wasobviously Raven. The date showed tonight, as well as every other Tuesday this month.

BeastBoy sat down near the back, and soon an announcer walkedon stageand said, "I'm sure you've all been looking forward to Rae's performance tonight!" the crowd cheered wildly. "Well, I'm happy to say that she finally caved, and is going to perform one of her original songs tonight!" more cheers. "So, everyone, here she is: RAE!"

Raven stepped on stage, and BastBoy's heart leaped. He was seriously falling for the girl. She was carrying a guitar, and stepped up to the mic. Then, she and her band started a fairly fast tune. Raven started to sing, her voice so beautiful he might have cried.

We've known each other

Six long years

You've met my brother

You know all my fears

And my door's been three feet open

All this time

And I keep hopin'

Someday you'll kiss me good night

We've been friends so long

You prob'ly didn't realize

It's you in this song

And you're everything in my eyes

And my door's been three feet open

All this time

And I keep hopin'

Someday you'll kiss me good night

I wish you knew it was real

Wish you knew how I feel

I've loved you forever

But you've thought about me that way, never

And my door's been three feet open

All this time

And I keep hopin'

Someday you'll kiss me good night

And my door's been three feet open

All this time

And I keep hopin'

Someday you'll kiss me

(Kiss me, Kiss me)

Why won't you just

Kiss me


Okay, so I think Terra was kinda OOC here... Raven might have been too... Oh well. I do own the song lyrics. If I see/hear about them being anywhere without my permission, I will be VERY VERY MAD! For you dumb people, song lyrics in parentheses are backup vocals. The song makes more sense with the music, but I don't know how I would post that. Sorry! Anywho, please review!
