Chapter 2

Okay, so where did we leave off? Oh yes, the problem of Terra being stone and all. Well, let's get on with it then.

Starfire often went down to the cave where here long time paved friend stood, sometimes to think by herself and ponder over the tragic events of the day, sometimes to just talk to Terra as if talking basically to herself would bring some logic on her thoughts, but most of the time it was because she could just sit there, in peace, with no disturbances and everything would seem right; that the world used to be like when she first came to Earth; bubbling and energetic, of the good kind, not the poisonous evil bubbling which it runs on now.

Today she had come down with news. "Friend Terra," She had said when she had flown into the cave, as if Terra could hear every word of what she was about to say and would be just as excited as Starfire was at the moment. "I have come today with good news; we have found a way to release you from the molten earth which binds you. You can finally be free after these long 8 years of well…" She trailed off and looked around at the ceiling of the cave then sat down on her often used perch point, which was a rock that sat opposite the statue of her encased friend. "I was going to say closed off torture, for surely being trapped would be so horrible. But I feel somehow they would be wrong words to use due to the current situation. Oh I do feel angered about the world we will be bringing you into as it is so different to that of which you left." She sighed heavily and rested her head on the palms of her hands and looked at a not so interesting clump of dirt, which her foot was pushing around. She turned her emerald green orbs for eyes up at Terra, sadness just wishing to escape. "I hope you will not be mad at us for bringing you back to this world. It is just that we are in desperate need of your help. I am…"

"Starfire." Starfire turned round expecting to see Raven, with whom her name had just been said had come from. "Starfire, you need to come back to the base." Realising that Raven was talking to her in her head Starfire answered with a thought, "I will return right away."

Feeling Raven's presence had left, Starfire stood up and floated into the air, ready to fly back. She turned her head round and looked back at Terra's immoveable figure. "I am so sorry, but I shall see you soon…I hope." She then flew off back to the base.

Starfire arrived back and entered the main gathering room, which held a small metal table with papers and such scattered across it. Raven was standing at the head of the table while the others were all sat on either sides. Starfire went in and sat at one of the chairs towards the far end, so as to not cut Raven's little speech thing that was happening. "…so if we can combine Jinx's hex, some of X's Xinotheium from his belt and this spell which I found in one of my old text books, she should be freed and hopefully, her age will catch up with her."

"So are you saying that Terra will look like she should have done if she had never been cast in stone before?" Starfire asked, only having come in half way through the conversation.

"Yes Star." Raven said, turning her head to her best friend, hope and a little relief reflected in her eyes.

"So when are we gonna do this?" Jinx asked.

"Tonight." Raven replied, now placing her sight on Jinx. "So I need everyone to get prepared. Bumblebee and Flash," She said looking at the two, "I need you two to guard the cave entrance, just in case any of Slade's little cronies decide to make a guest appearance. Starfire, I'm gonna need you to stand behind Terra for when she is broken free, just in case she falls backwards or anything." Starfire nodded. "X, you're going to put you xinotheium at the bottom of the statue then phase out and go and stand guard as well, we can never be too careful. Jinx, we're going to do the spells and yada yada yada. Everyone set?" They all nodded. "Good, then lets get going." They all got up and went to get the things they needed. Starfire stayed behind and when they had all left, went up to Raven, who was currently shuffling papers. "Friend Raven," She began but Raven cut her off.

"Look Star, we've had this conversation before but like we came to the conclusion, Terra is our only hope."

"I know, it's just I don't know that it is right bringing her into this world? I mean it's so different to what she left."

"Starfire," Raven walked over to Starfire and put a reassuring hand on her shoulder, something that Robin might have done when they were once teens, "with Terra's help, we might be able to bring back that world and life we all loved so much."

"I know, but what about the word 'might'? Is might to much of a gamble?"

"Might, it's better than no chance at all."

There was a pause then Starfire looked up, or more downwards slightly as Raven was three inches shorter than herself, and smiled gently. Raven smiled gently back, something that she was seen more often doing now than she had ever done. "So tell me about this spell which will make Terra look her age." Starfire said.

Raven smiled a bit more and turned, Starfire linking in her arm with Raven's, another thing that these two were often seen doing, their friendship having grown a lot stronger over the years. "Well, I found this book, one of the ones I had managed to retrieve from the tower before them, and…"

"I'm so bored."

"Well find something to do."

"But there is nothing to do!"

"What about killing off that rebel group that was starting in east Jump?"

"Nah, Robin and Speedy took them out last week."

"Oh yea."

"Wanna maybe demolish something?"

"Nah, we've already demolished the upper quadrants of North and South Jump."

"I know!"

"Well there's something you don't hear every day."

"Shut Up!"

"Well what do you know then?"

"Lets play video games!"

"Christ! We haven't played them for ages."

"That's because they were all smashed up when the idi-bots took over the frickin tower. Managed to re-make one though." The not-so small grass stain smiled grimly, the cheeky smile he held in his youth having disappeared and being replace with a sinister, wicked grin that often to centre stage on his face when on a blood thirsty killing spree. The Tin man also displayed a similar smile as they sat down and began to game.

Cyborg and Beast Boy had changed in looks a lot since their youth as the Teen Titans. Cyborg's tech had gone from pleasant blue circular and white polished metal, to red spiked tech and dark, faded grey metal with the 'S' pinned onto his right breast plate to show his loyalty to Slade. His boots had also developed a dark red stripe, signalling his high ranking in Slade's army. Robin and Beast Boy also donned ones on their boots, but also spiked stripes on their gloves which covered their now, very toned arms. Beast Boy had gone from being a puny grass stain on the floor, as the old Cyborg had many a times referred to him as being, into a fairly tall, 5"11, young man, with even darker spiked green hair, a darker greenish skin tone, and everything about him, as much as the displeasure of using the word to describe him again, but possibly the best word for it; sinister and evil. Pure hatred rose from his stature, and the metal plates and armour suited on him just added to his superiority.

Robin also donned an identical suit to Beast Boy, yet instead of having dark green stripes on his uniform, he had orange, the highest rank, except of course for Slade's dictatorship stance, in the army, followed by red, the green and then blue. The former boy wonder had grown to approximately 6"1, just two inches below Cyborg who stood at 6"3, and had toned and sculpted his body into a strength-crushing weapon. He still had that same ebony spiked hair and that plain mask, almost to mock his former friends and teammates, Raven and Starfire, of the old Robin that they loved and cared for.

Anyway, away from the descriptions and back to the story.

Beast Boy and Cyborg's short-lived reunion with the video games console was interrupted with Robin running into the old common room of Titan's Tower. "Looks like we've got some troublemakers boys." An identical grin to Beast Boy's and Cyborg's spread across Robin's face.

Beast Boy did a silent jump for joy before they ran out, heading straight for the cave that held Terra.

"Now Starfire, are you ready to catch her?" Raven asked.

Starfire nodded and took a deep breath. Raven also took a deep breath and her and Jinx began the hex and spell making. It took them about ten minutes but they had done it, and hopefully it would work. Raven and Jinx took a step back. The stone didn't immediately start disappearing, but Raven's book had said that it might take a while to work. "All we can do now is sit and wait." She said.

"I doubt you'll have that pleasure."

Raven whirled round at the sound of his voice. Starfire peered round from behind the statue that was Terra, while Jinx got shot at, only with a stun gun, but fell of the edge behind her. Starfire tried to catch her but Beast Boy and Cyborg ran at her, pushing her over the side as well, but surprisingly following her, as if to carry on the battle down there and leave Robin and Raven alone. "I've got you all to myself Raven, how lovely." Robin said, smirking wickedly at her.

"Sorry to disappoint Robin, but that pleasure will be short lived." Raven said and tried phasing through the floor, but Robin ran and grabbed her by the arm too fast for her to completely go through.

He wrenched her out of the ground and slammed her against a wall. She winced slightly but wouldn't give him. "Azerath Metrion Zinthos!" She repelled him back but he bent over, his hand dragging along the floor to stop him skidding. He chuckled menacingly and lifted his head, looking into her eyes sending shivers down her spine and making her flesh crawl. She tried again to faze through the floor but was once again stopped by him. "Ah, ah, ah. I don't think so Raven." He wrenched her out and threw her across the ground. All of her energy had already been drowned by the spell on Terra, but she had the will to keep trying. Unfortunately for her, will power was not enough when up against someone as strong as Robin.

He walked over and bent down at her form, which was lying on the floor. She picked herself up, shockingly without ease, not actually realising the damage he had done to her and the sheer amount of energy she had actually lost. She looked up into his masked eyes. There was no pity there, no sense of humanity, only insanity. He picked her up by the arms and dragged her over to a wall before slamming her against it.

Jagged rocks dug into her back but he didn't seem to notice, or maybe just not to care, as he kept on pushing his body harder against hers, digging the rocks just further into her back. He lent in close to her face, too close for her comfort. She turned her head away so he simply talked into her ear, tickling it with discomfort and cruelness. "Don't be scared Raven. I'm not going to hurt you."

"Didn't you know liars go to hell Robin?" She spat back at him.

"But Raven, can't you see you're already in hell?" She almost seductively spoke to her.

"I saw that I was in hell the moment I saw you dressed in his uniforms." She said, sadness and pity trying to tumble over anger and pain.

"Aw, did Raven get hurt by her little friends leaving her and the alien princess bitch? Cheer up Raven, I can make the pain all disappear." He said, taunting her in a mockingly sick voice.

"Fuck you." She spat once more at him.

"I kind of always like that little fire that I could ignite within you Raven. It's kind of a turn on."

"Oh wow," She said with sarcastic mockery, "I feel so privileged. I mean to have you, Robin, the fearless servant of Slade to say that to me, poor little Raven, when there are so many girls who would be dying to hear you say that; well it's just made my day."

He slapped her across the face, short, sharp and quick, then began to chuckle with insanity hinting in his voice slightly. "See that's what I always loved about you Raven, always emitting hate when people are nice to you." He said, his body pressing harder against her and his hand clenching at her arm pressing into the flesh deeper, bruises already beginning to form.

"I don't see how that was being nice bird boy." She said, disgust evident in her voice.

"I can show you nice." He said and began to lean in when a flying rock came pelting at his head, knocking him out.

Raven breathed and rubbed her arm slightly. She looked down at the unconscious Robin then smiled gratefully. "Terra." She said, looking up at her grown-up and non-rocked friend.

"Raven, so nice to see you again."
