Sorry it took me a little longer than expected to get this chapter up. Busy with Christmas stuff and just laziness. So sorry for the delay, but here it is. Thank you for all those who have been with me since the beginning. You know who you are. There will be one more chapter after this. Thank you and enjoy chapter Eight.

Chapter Eight

Durga lifted the three hundred pound weight easily and tossed it far out in to the ocean. There was a slight delay before Raven was sent flying after it.

There was a large splash as it hit the water and as Raven followed. The weight quickly pulled Raven farther and farther down. Hopefully the Titans were already on their way. They were the only way she would possibly survive.

They were her only hope now.

***

The Titans and Rama rushed over the ocean. Beast Boy carried Cyborg, Starfire carried Robin and Rama, well, he could fly himself. They flew as fast as they could until they found Durga coming towards them with a vicious attack. A large wave followed her. The Titans stared wide eyed as the wave crashed over them.

Rama somehow managed to escape the large wave and went straight for Durga.

Three Titans popped out of the water. Cyborg kept sinking to his dismay. When Robin realized that he sent Starfire down to get him. Starfire obeyed and dove down to retrieve the metal Titan.

Robin started swimming towards a nearby island. He couldn't do much to fight Durga. Beast Boy had turned into a shark soon after being in the water. He could smell Raven. He did his best to follow her scent, and wandered off through the water. Cyborg, still holding his breath, watched Beast Boy swim off as Starfire pulled him up.

Starfire finally emerged from the water, still clinging to Cyborg. She quickly flew to a nearby island which Robin was trying to swim to. Starfire picked him out of the water and placed him on the sandy beach. Robin was breathing hard and gave her an appreciative thumbs up. Cyborg was still draining water out of his systems. Starfire turned to see Rama battling fiercely with Durga. Sparks flew as they clashed in the air. Starfire wanted to help, but didn't feel she could. She couldn't get a clear target, and it seemed inappropriate for her to interfere. Like it was personal for Rama.

Robin caught his breath and looked at the fierce battle between Rama and Durga. He couldn't do anything. So instead he decided to look for Raven. The reason they were all there. He scanned the island, this had to have been where they saw the big black bird originated from. Raven was nowhere to be found. Neither was Beast Boy.

"Where's Beast Boy?" Robin asked the other two Titans.

They both shrugged.

Where were they?

***

Beast Boy kept swimming further and further away. He could smell Raven somewhere. He was getting closer. He swam deeper and deeper until he saw her. There was Raven, cloak floating above her, a chain attacked to her ankle, eyes closed.

Beast Boy's eyes went wide and he swam faster than ever. He attacked the chain with his teeth. They didn't break. He kept biting it, then turned into a crocodile and attacked it even harder. It finally broke. He quickly turned into a whale and took her to the surface. He got her as near the island as he could before turning back to his normal self and taking her on land. The other Titans rushed over.

She wasn't breathing.

***

Rama fought fiercely with Durga. He used as all the power he had, but it wasn't enough. They were evenly matched, but one of them would make a mistake eventually. Rama couldn't help but feel it would be him.

It was.

Rama saw Beast Boy dragging Raven back onto shore. He was distracted and Durga took the opportunity and sent him crashing down into the ocean. Durga immediately turned to the Titans. She wanted to kill them all.

***

Beast Boy leaned over Raven's blue body. Her skin was as cold as ice and she wasn't breathing. Tears started to come to Beast Boy's eyes. He didn't know what to do.

Robin quickly ran over and took charge.

"Beast Boy, Is she breathing?" Robin asked quickly.

Beast Boy shook his head.

They heard a loud clash behind them. Robin looked over his shoulder. Rama had fallen. Durga was heading toward them fiercely.

"Starfire, Cyborg, keep Durga away." The two Titans obeyed. Robin turned back to Beast Boy. "I need you to listen and do exactly what I saw." Beast Boy nodded. "I'll do compressions, you breath when I tell you."

"I am breathing." Beast Boy said.

"No, into her." Robin quickly explained. He started CPR.

Beast Boy went wide eyed. "What?!"

Robin gave him a death glare and Beast Boy became serious again. After a few more compressions, Robin gave the order. Beast Boy obeyed. It was strange, but he didn't think of it as weird. If he didn't do it, she would die.

After Beast Boy finished giving the breaths, Robin continued the chest compressions. Beast Boy heard a crack and looked at Robin worriedly.

"If she dies, it won't matter anyway." Robin said quickly.

After a few more compressions, she finally spit out water. Robin sat her up so she wouldn't choke on it again, but she didn't wake up. She was still cold, but she had a little more color, although there isn't much difference between blue and grey.

They weren't out of the woods yet.

Raven could still die from hypothermia, suffocation from water filled lungs, Durga. Cyborg and Starfire were doing the best they could against Durga, but were being beat badly.

"Starfire!" Robin called. "Take Raven home." He ordered before helping Cyborg.

Beast Boy made sure Starfire got Raven before helping in the fight by turning into 'the beast' and attacking Durga with all he had. He wanted to be with Raven. He wanted to make sure she would be alright, but he had to stop Durga if that were ever going to happen again. He was glad he could see her at least once before being taken away from him again. Hope kept him going in the battle with Durga.

Hope you liked it. Tell me what you think about this chapter. Good Bad, horrible, sad, whatever. I would especially like to know what you think I should write about next. I might not choose any of your idea's but maybe I'll be inspired by one of you, or just let me do the work. Make sure you tell me how to improve though. I want to write well for you and myself. Hope to see you soon! (not literally...although that would be neat...)
