Chapter 9
The Titans were attacking the Sladebots.
Terra watched from a distance, floating in the air on a rock.
Beast Boy smashed three with one swipe of his gorilla sized hand.
"Cyborg, behind you!" Raven shouted.
He ducked and a Red X sliced the robot in half.
"Hum." Terra said.
Raven trashed five bots till there was only one left holding the stolen tech.
Red X sliced off the hand holding the device.
A sonic blast blew away the robot into scrap.
As the Titans congratulated themselves Terra decided to make an appearance.
"Look!" Cyborg yelled to the others who looked up where he was pointing.
"Terra!" Beast Boy shouted running toward her.
Breaking off pieces of the street she let them hover in the air.
She just waited as they came closer.
Forming a rock spears she aimed them at Slade's enemies.
Beast Boy stopped so did the others.
"Traitor!"
"Nice to see you too Raven."
"You don't have to follow him, you can break free, just-"
"Shut-up Cyborg, you don't know what you are talking about."
"Please Terra, come back to us." Beast Boy pleaded.
Terra started to cry then she stopped.
Her eyes were wide and the rocks around her fell to the ground.
Before Cyborg, Raven and Beast Boy could guess why she was dropping her defenses Red X appeared.
He was holding a X dagger to her throat.
"Your call on what we do now blondie." he whispered into her ear.
She landed on the ground. "You don't understand." she said her voice full of fright.
"What is that?" he asked.
The others came closer.
"Let me go!" she shouted to him.
"No!" he pressed the dagger harder against her skin.
"NOW!" she screamed.
Three rocks behindher hurled at Red X.
Cyborg blasted one to dust and Raven grabbed the other.
Red X ducked at the last second.
The rock hit her on her head.
She was unconscious.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Terra awoke with a start.
The room was blank, just a bed, and there was an observation room behind her.
She tried to summon her powers, her eyes glowing golden yellow.
Nothing.
"You have to let me go!"
"Why?" Raven asked.
She screamed.
She reached out with her powers trying to summon anything to help her.
"Cyborg designed the room, we were hoping to catch you, Terra tell us what is going on." Raven said over the speaker
She sat on the bed and wept.
"I am going down there." Beast Boy said running toward her room.
He opened the door and closed it.
"Stay back!" Terra exclaimed.
"What?" he said raising his hands stopping.
"No, keep away." she cried.
"Terra if I mean anything to you, then tell now what is going on, I don't give a d-"
She cut him off. "You will die!"
"Remember that trap you were in that Slade shot you with a red beam. Then we escaped and stopped that robbery."
Beast Boy nodded.
"You have nanobots inside you, billions of them. All Slade has to do is push a button and you are dead. He could push it any minute now."
"No." Raven whispered.
"Now Slade has been contacted by some interdimensional being with four-eyes who wants to bring the end of the mortal world."
"What are they after?"
"I don't know, but we have to do something now to save you Beast Boy before it is too late."
They all looked at Cyborg.
"I'm on it."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Slade looked up and saw Beast Boy's screen wink out.
He became angry, but let it go.
The little traitor.
He did not need her anymore.
He did not need anyone anymore.
No he had a new plan and a job to do.
His eye glowed red in the darkness.
Terra was the past, and in a few days he would be deliveringa message.
