AN: No, I still don't bloody own Teen Titans so everyone stop asking me! (just kidding)

Chapter 9

Raven sat on the couch with a book in her hands. Cyborg was in the kitchen making him self a large lunch and trying to work around Starfire, who was working on a special meal that took seven hours to prepare. Robin was flipping through their fifty news channels to see if there was any important information he was missing.

"Hey guys guess what?" they all heard Beast Boy announce as he entered the common room.

"What?" they all asked casually.

"Terra's back!" he said with a smile and pulled her into the room.

She gave a shy smile and waved. "Uh, hi guys," she said.

To say that they were shocked would have been an extreme understatement. All of their jaws dropped as well as Ravens book. None of them had ever expected to see her again.

"Friend Terra!" shouted Starfire flying over to her as fast as possible. "You are back! You are well! You are… you!" She wrapped her arms around Terra and hugged her as tightly as she could.

"Lungs… crushed," gasped Terra. Starfire released and poor Terra did her best to catch her breath again.

"Terra, you have your memories back?" asked Robin.

"Yeah," said Terra smiling and nodding.

"But how?" asked Cyborg.

"I don't know," said Terra, shrugging. "Everything's kinda fuzzy. It's like I just came out of some coma or something."

"Isn't it great?" asked Beast Boy, gushing.

Raven had never felt more confused in her entire life. She was sure that this couldn't happen. In fact, she was positive on that. So how could this be? It didn't make any sense. She slowly picked her book up and walked over to the group.

"Um, hi Raven," said Terra with a small smile.

"Hello," said Raven plainly, but they could all see the confusing lurking within her. But soon the confusion was replaced by a deep hidden anger and resentment. This was the girl that had tried to kill her. This was the girl who had tricked her. This was the girl who owned her crush's heart. No, Raven wasn't fond of Terra then or now.

"Come on, let me take you to your room," said Beast Boy grabbing Terra's hand. "We haven't changed a thing." And with that he sprinted excitedly out of the room with Terra being dragged behind him.

"Well this was… unexpected," said Cyborg, scratching his metal hand.

"Very… unexpected," Robin added.

"But is it not wonderful?" asked Starfire, clasping her hands in joy. "Terra has returned!"

"Whoop dee freakin doo," said Raven practically through her teeth.

"I'm guessing you're not very happy," said Robin.

"You think?" she asked sarcastically and then went back over to the couch. Suddenly all of the dishes flew out of the cabinets and smashed on the ground. She angrily sat down and reopened her book.

A few minutes later Beast Boy returned with his hand still attached to Terra's. "And, as you can see, the common room is still the same," he said as he finished up giving her the third tour of the tower in her life. He then dragged her over to Robin. "Hey, Robin, Terra can move back in, right?"

"Oh, uh," said Robin thinking.

"I promise, my evil days are done," said Terra.

"Well, do you have your powers?" asked Robin.

"Sure do," she said with a smile.

"But you haven't practiced in years and without Slade's help, I'm not sure if you have enough control," said Robin.

"Awe, come on dude!" pleaded Beast Boy.

"Well, I mean, I guess so, but…" said Robin.

"Awesome!" said Beast Boy. "Come on, let's play some videogames." He dragged Terra over to the couch and sat her down. It wasn't long before the two were battling it out. And all the while, Raven remained on the couch trying to read, but she did put her hood up. It went without saying that at random times something would explode due to her powers.

Beast Boy was all smiles as he played against Terra. She was back and now things could get back to where they should be. But he couldn't help the pain he felt in the pit of his stomach. He was sitting right next to Raven and he could feel the pain and anger emitting from her. But he did his best to push her out of his mind. This was what he wanted. This was how it was supposed to be.

After about an hour the two were done and just continued to talk and laugh and flirt. They really were shameless. Starfire was working harder than ever on her special meal, since this really was a special occasion. Robin sat at the table working on a plan on how to help Terra get control of her powers. Cyborg was sitting on the other side of Terra playing a one player videogame. And Raven just sat there. Beast Boy was probably the only one who noticed that she still hadn't turned a page in her book.

"…now that's funny!" laughed Terra. "Hey, I'll be right back. I have to go to the bathroom." She gave Beast Boy a kiss on the cheek and headed out of the room. He watched her leave and sighed happily. He then turned and saw that Raven was still there, frozen.

"Uh, don't worry, I'm not gonna rub your face in this like I threatened I would," he said to her with a small, nervous grin. But she said nothing. "And she's not gonna replace you." Still, she said nothing and moved not an inch. "Look, I know that you're probably a little upset. Especially after… last night and all, but I don't want you to think that I like you any less. I still think you're attractive and…"

Raven suddenly stood up and this sudden movement released the tears she had been holding in her eyes for nearly an hour now. All the large windows in the common room cracked, and that included the television. She hugged her book close to her and turned to walk out of the room.

Suddenly there was an explosion and a ring of fire formed in front of her. She gasped and jumped back, as did all of the Titans. From the fire a portal a figure made of fire rose up. The fire disappeared from beneath his feet and slowly crawled up to reveal a somewhat human form.

"Hello Raven," he said with an evil smirk.

Raven wasn't sure who he was, but she did know what he was. "What are you doing here?" asked Raven, ready to fight him. Beast Boy suddenly got a very bad feeling.

"I'm here to collect you," he said through his teeth.

"You can't collect me," she said firmly.

"Raven, who is this?" asked Robin, ready to attack.

"This is a demon servant," said Raven.

"My name is Figaro; meaning daring or cunning," he said proudly. "And I work for Trigon."

"But the Trigon is gone," said Starfire. "Raven defeated him."

"She sent him back to Hell and forbid him from Earth," said Figaro. "And he's been waiting to… "thank" her for that."

"You can't take me to hell," Raven growled. "It's not possible."

"I beg to differ," said Figaro holding up Ravens belt.

Raven felt as if her heart had stopped. She looked down around her waist and found that her belt was gone. "No," she said, shocked.

"Five years of planning," said Figaro. "Five long years. I really did wonder if this would work. I never thought it would take so long. Turns out taking Terra's powers and memories away when she turned back to flesh was the easy part. Waiting for Beast Boy to appear though..."

"How did you get that!" she demanded, cutting him short.

"I traded for it," he said with a malice smile. "This…" Suddenly Terra walked in the room and was quite shocked at what she saw. "For her."

"Terra?" they all said.

"Yes," Figaro hissed.

"That still doesn't explain how you got it," said Raven, on the verge of tears. She knew she was doomed now.

"I made a little arrangement with one of your teammates," he said quite proudly. He then pointed to, "Beast Boy."

Raven looked at Beast Boy and the look scared him. The blood had completely drained from her face and she looked like she was about to faint. She went right over to him and grabbed him by the arms.

"Tell me you didn't do this," she said, tears forming in her eyes. "Tell me you didn't give him my belt!"

"I… I… he said he'd give me Terra back," he said, trying to sort everything out in his brain. "He said he was just gonna borrow it."

Raven couldn't believe was she was hearing. She let go of Beast Boy and slowly backed away from him, shaking her head, tears streaming down her face.

"But, it's just a belt, right?" he asked, slightly hopeful.

"No, it's not just a belt!" she yelled at him. "That belt kept my soul grounded among other mortals!"

"Huh?" asked a confused Beast Boy, who was growing scared.

"Because I'm half demon that means half of my soul is immortal and can be taken to hell," said Raven, the tears ever streaming down her face. "That belt made up for the other half of mortality that I was missing so that Hell could not claim me. The six jewels on it each hold part of the soul of mortal, to make up for my own. Now that he has it, Hell can claim me!"

"Oh… crud," said Beast Boy, finally realizing.

"You sold me," she said, disgusted with him. "You sold my soul to Hell!"

"I… I didn't know," he said in all honesty.

Suddenly Figaro wrapped a dark power of his own around Ravens waist and pulled her over to him with a scream. "Sorry to break things up," he said. "But I've got a schedule to keep, and I promised to deliver you to Trigon in about thirty seconds."

"You're not takin her anywhere," Cyborg warned and charged up his laser canon.

"I beg to differ," said Figaro. He raised his hand and the four Titans and Terra were raised off of the floor and pinned to the ceiling. "Oh, and just so you don't try to come get her back…" He took Ravens belt and with his powers cracked every jewel on it.

"NO!" Raven screamed.

He dropped it to the ground and turned back into his fire form. Then the portal reappeared beneath he and Raven and the two disappeared.

As soon as he was gone, so were his powers. The five dropped from the ceiling and slammed to the floor. They each got up as quickly as they could and looked to the spot where Raven once stood. She was gone.

"Beast Boy," said Robin. "What have you done?"

"I…I…" stuttered a shocked Beast Boy. "I made a mistake."

Terra stood up, holding her head and looking quite dizzy. She looked around her, as if in a daze. "What happened?" she asked aloud. She saw the four Titans and let out a scream. "What am I doing here?"

"Terra? Are you okay?" asked Beast Boy.

"Get away from me!" she shrieked. "Did you kidnap me? What's going on?"

"I think we'd all like to know that," said Cyborg.

"Please, where has Raven gone?" asked Starfire on the verge of tears.

"To Hell, evidently," Robin sighed.

"Take me home immediately!" screamed Terra. "I'm gonna call the police and have you all arrested!"

Beast Boy could barely hear Terra. He was too in shock to. He had probably done the worst thing any person could do. He sent Raven to Hell. He toyed with her heart and then sent her to Hell. This couldn't be happening. It just couldn't!

"I made a mistake," he said again.
