A green antelope crashed through the wall and butted Raven towards the opposite one just as the flames reached her feet. The chair smashed into pieces and the ropes binding Raven fell, freeing her. She removed her gag and looked at Rage furiously. She started her chant,
"Azarath, metrion…" but Beast Boy interrupted.
"Raven, get out of here, please!"
"Why? You could get hurt?" Raven's voice was filled with concern for the first time in a while.
"Rae, this place is on fire and it looks to me like you're covered in petrol, get to the doorway," he turned to her and she saw the tears and fears in his eyes. "Please…"
Raven did what was asked of her and ran past the flames to the doorway, where she stood, watching Beast Boy battling his own anger.
For the first time fighting, Beast Boy had the upper hand fighting. Rage had to back away to dodge punch after punch until he was stuck backed up against a wall. He quickly turned the tables though when he morphed into a fly and disappeared.
"Where are you?" Beast Boy shouted. "Come out and fight like a man!"
Beast Boy's wish was granted when Rage appeared behind him and kicked him in the back.
He was just about to stamp on Beast Boy's head when Raven's cloak landed on Rage. It was still covered in petrol so Raven had thrown it at him. He screamed and Beast Boy took this chance to stand up and punch him hard in the face. Rage staggered back into the fire and when he walked out of the other side he looked like the human torch, but he didn't scream, he simply took the flaming cloak off and threw it over his shoulder.
"Don't look so surprised," he sneered. "Do you really think I'm as weak as you two?"
The other titans were piling into the T-car and racing down the streets impatiently.
"Come on Cy, where is he?"
"I'm tracking him already, just shut up bird boy!"
"Well track him faster!"
"I'm trying! Just shut… wait… I got a lock on his whereabouts. He's down by the docks in warehouse 16, let's go!"
The T-car sped up and zoomed along the streets.
Rage threw Beast Boy to the ground while Raven had to watch from the doorway. Rage looked, smirking at the changeling, who in turn quickly jumped up and nailed Rage in the side of the head.
"Are you really this weak? Honestly, I'm ashamed that you're one of MY emotions…" Beast Boy taunted.
This got the expected response, a barrage of punches and kicks all expertly dodged by Beast Boy, who grabbed Rage's hands and went up to him face to face.
"How can you expect to win? You're just one little part of me! You got lucky before when you took us by surprise but how do you expect to win against me?"
"I'm not trying to," sneered Rage. "I'm just delaying you.
Beast Boy was taken by surprise, and let go, but Rage didn't try to hit him, just slowly walk up to him and speak to him demeaningly.
"Raven's not the only one I want dead… You… you're a pathetic excuse for a human, or an animal, let alone both."
Beast Boy backed away in shock.
"You know what made me madder about Raven being mean to me? You! When have you EVER stood up to her, or insulted her back? Never. You're spineless… and to think, not only do you actually feel friendly towards this evil witch, but you actually have a CRUSH ON HER?"
Raven gasped. Beast Boy gasped, before being enraged and trying to punch Rage, but his attack was dodged easily and Rage tripped him. Beast Boy landed in a heap on the floor. Rage just kept talking.
"I don't want to be a part of your sad little world where I'm just constantly going to be ignored. I'd rather be dead than be a part of you again…" Rage stopped smirking evilly again.
Beast Boy realised what Rage was saying, and looked towards the half-full petrol tank. The flames were so close to it… in a matter of seconds it would explode. Beast Boy, still in a heap, looked up just to see Rage leaning over him before saying sinisterly,
"Bye Bye Beast Boy."
BOOM!
