Hey. The version of My Heart Will Go On that I was listening to had bits and pieces of the movie in it. Sadness. Ok well, this is a song-fic to the song 'Forever 17' by ZoeGirl. If you knew what I knew, that would make you laugh. But, you don't know what I know. I mean the name of the band, and I am not insulting them. Dedicated to and requested by Clo. Enjoy. (Note: Things Changed didn't happen ever in this story! Hehe)
Disclaimer- I don't own Forever 17 or ZoeGirl.
Here Be Da Story.
Terra, in stone, wished that she could come back and be with the titans. She was, in fact, dead, and really missed her old life. The only thing she didn't miss was Slade and Raven. But, she had never thought in a million years that she would be a hero, then villain, then hero, the villain, then last a hero once again. More than anything she wanted this to just turn up to be a dream. A long horrible dream. Knowing this had been a terrible end, she could see from the sky that she roamed as a ghost, the titans, her friends. (Mostly). She would do anything to have a life again. To be able to sit at the tower dining table and listen to Beast Boy and Cyborg fight over food, to help Starfire cook something Tameranian, to help Robin with his love life, and to plan to kill Raven in her spare time. She missed all that. She missed being with them, Mostly Beast Boy. But no. She has to live as the very thing that she controls, rock. She would be a seventeen year old, grey, rocks statue for the rest of her life. I mean, come on she could have at least been marble.
Never thought it would be me
Living in a shattered dream
How could this be the end for me?
What I wouldn't give to have
A life to live, a day to plan
Instead I'll be forever seventeen
She could have made her dream a reality. Her dream to someday have Beast Boy to herself, far away from Raven. She could have done anything. She could have stayed a titan her whole life. That would have been plenty satisfying.
Could have lived out every dream
I could have been most anything
She knew that the titans tried everything to get her back to a real person. Raven had even tried, but all her stuff failed, as did everything else. She wished it would be a dream she would just wake up and be alive. Being a ghost made her wonder, if God forgot about her, or maybe they didn't know wether to send her to heaven or hell. 'I'm so young, this isn't fair. I don't want to be a stupid 17 year old forever! Why cant I jut wake up?' Terra yelled. But seeing as she was a ghost, no one could hear her.
Can someone wake me up?
I haven't lived yet
I'm only seventeen
God, did you forget?
I'm just a baby
And I don't wanna be
Forever seventeen
She would never get to live in Titans Tower again. Well, she could dwell in the tower and haunt everyone there. No, that would be too mean, but she could haunt Raven. 'I wonder if she can make contact with ghosts?' Terra thought hoping then she could say good bye to Beast Boy and the other titans.
It was now summer time, and the titans lived on the beach, basically. The titans had all grown over the past year, but Terra lived forever seventeen. 'This sucks,' she thought angrily. She glided down and dove into the water. She couldn't feel it, but she was in it. She made a splash which startled the titans that were in the water. (All but Raven and Cyborg. Cyborg was building a sand castle ((how mature LOL JK)) and Raven, who was wearing a two piece ((( all: Gasp!))) was reading a book and attempting to cover herself with her towel that she was sitting on.) If she had never had powers and the titans never had powers, and they had met, then Terra and Beast Boy could have gotten together without Raven in the way. Oh this could have been different.
I'll never have a bed to make
A test to take, a summer day
I'll always be forever seventeen
I could have had a family
If things had worked out differently
Instead I'll be forever seventeen
'If I had just one day. I could learn from my mistakes. I would kill Raven, become a hero again, and make Beast Boy fall in love with me again.' She thought again. She said 'make Beast Boy fall in love with me again' because when she looked down at the beach, she saw Beast Boy run up out of the water over beside Raven. They talked for a while, then what happened next made Terra want to cry. Beast Boy held Raven's chin with one hand and kissed her lips tenderly. Raven kissed back too. Terra zipped down and picked up a rock. Chucking it at Raven's head, it would have hit Raven's head if Beast Boy hadn't caught it. He had heard it soaring threw the air. 'Darn animal censes!' she thought angrily.
Could I have just one more day
A chance to learn from my mistakes
'WHY DO I HAVE TO BE DEAD!' she screamed at the top of her lungs. Since she had her eyes closed she didn't see someone turn around. 'I haven't lived a life worth anything! I need to live again! I'm only seventeen! Did God forget that I need a life to live? I don't want to be 17 forever! I hate this!' she stopped screaming long enough to open her eyes and see Beast Boy standing right in front of her. Staring her strait in the eye, he spoke in a quiet whisper, "Terra, don't try to hurt Raven. She didn't do anything to you. Besides I will never forget you. If you relax, God will take you to heaven. Just be happy for us, for everything, and God will let you rest in peace." He coughed and turned around and walked back to Raven.
Can someone wake me up?
I haven't lived yet
I'm only seventeen
God, did you forget?
I'm just a baby
And I don't wanna be
Forever seventeen
Terra breathed deeply taking in all that BB had said. 'Life was a gift and I didn't treat it right. It's gone now. I need to relax. And breathe.' Terra understood everything that was going on now.
In a matter of a moment
Life fell before my eyes
And now I'm looking at the meaning of
The miracle of life
Where are we going without even knowing
The answers deep inside
She would be seventeen forever, but it didn't matter. Her friends would live on, and that DID matter. She realized that she should be happy for them. Happy was all. Just happy. For them.
Forever seventeen
'Beast Boy! Can you still hear me?' He turned around slowly and walked back to her. He nodded when he got closer to her. She gave him a hug, tried at least. 'Thank you BB. You are the greatest person in the world! I'm going to leave now. Good bye! I love you.' BB smiled and nodded. "Thank you," he whispered. She floated up in the sky and disappeared from sight. They hadn't lived yet, they had time, they were only 17, God loved them, and Terra knew it. She wished them the best, and no one ever saw her again.
So don't give up
You haven't lived yet
You're only seventeen
And God did not forget
You're just a baby
Ok guys! I am done! Enjoy. I hope it was as good as you hoped!
