BB The Crow chapter 13: A Ghost.
Beast Boy sit's on Jump City's old abandoned church playing on his quitar with the crow on
his shoulder. Suddenly he heard something from inside the church. Beast Boy put
his quitar down and jumped through a hole in the roof and lands on the floor inside the
church. Beast Boy looks around, it looked like an ordinary church except that all the crosses
were upside down and all the paintings were about the devil or demons. Beast Boy walks
around the church, he passes a mirror, formed as the devils mouth.
'' Beast Boy.'' Said a voice. Beast Boy looks in every direction. His eyes lands on the mirror
and sees Raven herself, with a loving smile on her face. '' Hello Beast Boy.'' Raven said.
'' Raven?'' Beast Boy said with his eyes wide. He walked closer to the mirror and places his
hand on it. '' I've missed you so.'' Beast Boy said.
'' I've missed you to, more than you can imagine.'' Raven said placing her hand on her side
of the mirror, where Beast Boy hand was.
'' Where are you?'' Beast Boy asked.
'' I'm in another life.'' Raven answered.
'' Then why am i not with you? I can't be here not without you.'' Beast Boy said.
'' I know but you have to finish what you've started.'' Raven said.
'' But i don't want to, i want to be with you.'' Beast Boy said.
'' No a part of you want to get revenge on the ones who did this to us, but another part
doesn't. It's like Yin and Yan. Two opposite things that makes something good together.''
Raven said
'' And what happens when i'm done?'' Beast Boy asked.
'' You come back to the land of the dead. But to get done you have to let go of all of your
rage.'' Raven said.
'' What's that suppose to mean?'' Beast Boy asked.
'' That you have to discover yourself. Well bye.'' Raven said and was beginning to
dissappear.
'' Wait! One more question. Why does it feel like i've met this crow before .'' Beast Boy said and
looked at the crow.
'' ( snicker) That's because you have.'' Raven said. Beast Boy looked strangely at her. '' You
remember the end of the world?'' Raven asked, Beast Boy nodded. '' Well there was
that led you and the others to eachother right? Well that was that crow on your shoulder.
Not a Raven as Robin thought.'' Raven said.
'' Raven?'' Beast Boy asked.
'' Yes.'' Raven said.
'' I love you.'' Beast Boy said leaning closer to the mirror, where Raven's head was.
'' I love you too.'' Raven said also leaning in. Beast Boy's lips connected to the mirror where
Raven's lips where, and Raven on Beast Boy's. Even if there was a mirror between them
they could still feel the kiss. The kiss ended. '' See ya soon Beast Boy Raven said and she
dissappeared.
'' See ya.'' Beast Boy said taking one last look at the mirror then he also dissappeared.
Titans Tower
Robin sat by the Titan's mainframe, pressing the buttons so fast that his hands almost
catched fire. Starfire and Cyborg stood beside him, both looking like they've just gotten
home from a funeral while Robin is looks like when he was Slade's apprentice.
'' I do not understand. Why would Beast Boy kill Johnny Rancid and the Killer Moth?'' Starfire
asked.
'' Maybe it was a robot or something.'' Cyborg said.
'' No that was him.'' Robin said.
'' How can you be so sure?'' Cyborg asked.
'' I just know, but why he killed them i don't know.'' Robin said.
'' Yeah BB would never hurt a fly and absolutely not killing it, but that's because he can
turn into one.'' Cyborg said remembering the ''fly'' incident. Beast Boy had almost pulled
Cyborg's head off.
'' But when he doesn't '' hurt the fly'' then he must have a reason to kill them.'' Starfire said.
'' yes but what?'' Robin asked. Suddenly one of the buttons blinked red. Robin pressed it
and a map of the tower came up. In the medicalbay was a red dot. '' Someone is in the
medical bay. TITANS MOVE!!'' Robin yelled and the three titans headed for the medical
bay. When they reached it, Robin kicked in the door. Inside was... '' Nothing?'' There wasn't
no one in there, just Raven's body lying on the bed. They went in and looked around.
'' Whoops.'' Starfire said as she bumped into the nightstand. Starfire looked at the
nightstand to see if she had damaged it someway. '' EEEEEKKKKKKK.'' Starfire yelled when
she saw '' a blackbird'' on the nightstand, squawking at her. Starfire backed away two
metres.
'' Starfire what is it?'' Robin asked running over to her, and placed a and on her shoulder.
'' Tha.. that.'' Starfire said terrefied pointing at the crow. Robin looks at it then back at
Starfire.
'' Starfire it's just a bird.'' Robin said.
'' No i've seen birds before. Bu..(hic) but this one is different (hic), i don't like the way it
looks at (hic) me.'' Starfire said looking at the crow like it was Trigon's servant.
'' Starfire it's just a bird, it doesn't want to harm you. Look.'' Robin said and reached out his
hand towards the crow to pet it. But unfortunately the crow bit his hand, HARD. '' OOOOOO
WWWW!'' Robin yelled and retrieve s his hand and blows on it.
'' Wow it seems like the bird boy is hated by birds HAHAHAHAHAHA.'' Cyborg laughed.
'' Why you little.'' Robin sweeps at the crow, but it just flies up and lands on a shelf.
'' Forget it, there is no one here...'' Robin started but the crow squawked at him like it was
pissed.
'' I don't think this bird agrees Robin. Certainly this bird is someone.'' Starfire said and
the crow stopped to squawk.
'' Ok there is no one here EXCEPT for that stupid bird. Let's go back to the mainframe. I
have to send a rapport to Titans East..'' Robin said and they exited the medical bay. They
walked back to the mainframe. Robin sat in the chair again. He pressed a few buttons and
a report on what's been happening the last hour appeared, along with an image of the
crow made in flames. He pressed another button and on the screen appeared a chibi
version of Titans Tower, sending a e-mail to a chibi version of Titans East's tower.
Hells Minions HQ
Slade was druming his fingers on his chair arm, watching the news.
'' Tonight there's been another murder, it was another villian by the name Johnny Rancid.
On the crime scene the murderer left a symbol..'' The reporter said showing the viewers a
image of the crow in flames.'' ... a clue ,perhaps a message.'' Slade turned his attention
away from the TV to one of his paintings, the one with the crow in it.
'' So it's seems like we have a ghost on our hands. But that can be changed.'' Slade said
smiling under his mask. Suddenly Gizmo entered the room.
'' You wanted to see me?'' Gizmo asked.
'' Yes. You may have noticed that two of your teammates has been killed.'' Slade said
standing up.
'' Yes sir.''
'' Well this '' person'' is not like us.''
'' How do you mean?''
'' Well as an exmple let's say he's an angel, and a how do you kill an angel?''
'' You can't the are invincible right?''
'' Bingo they are invincible, but that doesn't mean you can't take that away from him.''
'' How?''
'' By taking away his wings, and in this case it's wings is a crow.''
'' What does a crow got anything to do with this?''
'' Well you see, the dead can return if they have enough motivation, and the changling
Beast Boy, you killed tonight, has that kinnd of motivation.''
'' ( Gulp) you mean we're against a dead man?''
'' More or less yes, but if we take out the crow, when we have he will be as vulnerable as any man. So i
wan't you to make a weapon that can take out a big black bird fast and easy.''
'' You got it Slade.''
'' Good and if i may ask where is Red X and Control Freak?''
'' I think they went downtown or something. Red X was pretty mad when he found out that his ride was crashed, so i think he's out buying stuff to build a new one.''
'' Ok, get starting on that weapon, we don't got much time before we need to perform the
spell. And Gizmo while you're on it, turn on your guard robots, in case our ghost friend
decides to pay a visit.'' Gizmo exited the room and Slade sat down once more.
'' So God is finally paying attention.''
