Chapter 29
Ooohhh second to last chapter …. Another songfic: D
I own nothing whatsoever so enjoy….
Beastboy just didn't feel right at the moment. Something was wrong.
He was doing a patrol outside the city as if fate called to him to come to this small town.
Every single moment since her disappearance he had been dreading. She was gone, without a trace, without letting him know she was okay, she left in cold blood. He hated her for that; still he knew that she needed to disappear to be safe.
It had been a few months since she left and he had not heard from her once. She was gone. Perhaps forever.
He didn't know if he should wait for her any longer. He also never wanted to surrender
Do you know what it's like when
you're scared to see yourself?
He was terrified that he didn't know where in the world she was. He would look in the mirror and see his fears, his failure; he would see the weakling that lost her.
Do you know what it's like when
you wish you were someone else
who didn't need your help to get by?
He wished he could be braver, like Nightwing, optimistic like Starfire, bold like Terra, strong like Cyborg. Yet he was just Beastboy, he felt he could never protect the one he loved.
Do you know what it's like
to wanna surrender?
Why wasn't she here, she didn't realize how horrible he felt. He felt like he was coming closer and closer to surrendering.
I don't wanna feel like this tomorrow
I don't wanna live like this today
"No," he yelled. "I will not give up, until I find her. I will cease to live without her."
Make me feel better, I wanna feel better
Stay with me here now and never surrender
The light hit him; he knew that only with her would they both ever truly be happy. He was never ever going surrender.
Never surrender
Never surrender!
Do you know what it's like when
you're not who you wanna be?
He wasn't going to be who he wasn't. He was going to be himself once again.
Do you know what it's like to
be your own worst enemy
who sees the things in me I can't hide?
He was going to stop being his own enemy.
He was going to be brave, optimistic, bold, and strong.
Do you know what it's like
to wanna surrender?
He wasn't going to know what it was like to want to surrender.
I don't wanna feel like this tomorrow
I don't wanna live like this today
He was not going to feel like this tomorrow, he wasn't going to live like this today.
Make me feel better, I wanna feel better
Stay with me here now and never surrender
For her sake he was going to feel better. He was going to find her. He was never going to surrender.
Make me feel better, you make me feel better
you make me feel better, put me back together
He was going to pick himself up. He was going to feel better. He was going to put himself back together.
I don't wanna feel like this tomorrow
I don't wanna live like this today
"For her," he said. "Today I will be the Beastboy she met months ago."
Make me feel better, I need to feel better
Stay with me here now and never surrender
"Never again," he yelled to the sky. "I will find her and I will never surrender until I do."
Put me back together
never surrender, make me feel better
you make me feel better
He smiled at the sky, the birds where chirping. Plan set, now he was off to find her.
Stay with me here now and never surrender
There was the faint sound of yells about twenty yards away. He saw people frantically running out of a small gothic café.
He turned into a peregrine falcon and flew to the café.
His heart sank.
…..
(Take a few steps back in time.)
She was paralyzed by his simple "Hello" but she had to suck it up.
"Hello," she said altering her voice.
"My name is Wilson," he said putting out his hand. "My I acquire your name madam."
She shook his hand.
"My name is Angela," she said using her mother's real name.
"Well Angela," he said. "You are quite beautiful."
She blushed at his remark.
"Thank you Slade," she said.
She quickly realized her mistake but not quickly enough.
He had her pinned down to the floor.
"I do not recall telling you my first name," he said clutching her neck.
He was suffocating her.
"I see now, Angela Roth was your mother's name wasn't it darling," he said making his grip stronger.
He tore off her wig and removed her contacts swiftly.
"You can't hide from me Raven."
He placed his mask on and through a smoke bomb scaring the people at the café.
"I guess I can't can me," she said smirking.
He smirked at her remark. She was feisty.
"Now how did my prized little bird get out of her cage," he asked picking her up and pushing her against a table.
"You can clip a birds wings Slade," he said kicking him in his well you know.
He released her in pain.
"But the pretty bird has her talons."
Her hands started to glow and sparkle blue, black, and purple.
"You know Slade," she hissed. "I never even liked you."
It was evident in his one eye that her little comment angered him.
He pounced at her.
She wasn't fast enough to dodge. He slammed here against a wall and wrapped his hands around her small neck, but she got her magic grip on his neck.
He had her and she had him. The only question was who was going down first.
Both grips where suffocation each person.
Still he was always much stronger than any normal human. She was half demon she could go without many things.
His nails dug into her precious skin.
"You know pretty bird," he said painfully adding a stronger grip as her s relinquished.
"I thinks it's time I end you're miserable life. Little birdies neck is going to snap."
He added ten times more force.
She gasped. Her neck was still intact but her blood was missing oxygen.
It all went black.
…..
Was he truly going to kill her, no, she was his and would always be his.
"Looks like I win birdie."
He picked her up bridal style.
"I am going to discipline you so rough when we get home that you will never ever disobey me again," he said throwing her over his back.
All of a sudden a giant green claw tore his mask and some skin off his face.
"Not if I have anything to do with it," said Beastboy turning back into his green human form.
"How troublesome," Slade said feeling the blood on his face trickle down. "It's such a strange coincidence that you managed to find her."
"We are soul mates," he smirked. "I will always find her no matter what."
"She is mine child and she always will be," Slade said.
"No she isn't she never was and she never will be," Beastboy said lunging at the mad man.
Slade dropped Raven and lunged at the hero.
"After I kill you," Slade hissed. "I will make her mine no matter what."
…..end…..
