Blackmoore
Chapter 6
Protection
As Blackmoore sat there bound by Ravens magic her anger boiled over. A string of obscenities left her lips. Her eye's were locked on Terra's quivering figure. Her heart was pounding and her breathing heavy. A million thoughts raced through her mind as she tried to think of an escape plan.
"Its okay now Terra." Best Boy reassured his friend. "She wont hurt you anymore." he put his arm around her shoulders.
"It's Okay Terra. She can't hurt you ever again Terra." spat Blackmoore "I'll be here always to protect you. And then we can run off together hand in hand into the sunset."
"You shut up!" It was Beast Boy's turn to be angry. He stepped forward in front of his friend.
"Or what?" she was not at all afraid of the green boy.
"Or I'll have to-"
"That's enough Beast Boy." Robin said in a stern voice. "Now is defiantly not the time for this kind of argument."
"Robin is right." Starfire said "We should immediately figure out what it is we should do with our friends attacker."
"We should do with her what we do with any other criminal." Raven said, "Take her to prison. We now know that she is dangerous. Who knows what kind of things she could do in this city."
"Criminal?" Blackmoore said just above a whisper. "You think I'm a criminal?" her pale face contorted into a scowl and her eye's were dark with fury. "What about her?! You think I don't know what she did? You think you can just ignore all of the things she put you through?! Where's the justice? She's a traitor!"
"Lena...I-I'm sorry." Terra's voice was weak and quivering. "I-I don't know what to say."
Blackmoore let out a twisted giggle. "Your sorry. Your... sorry?" It seemed as if her anger fueled her power because Ravens magic could no longer contain the angry girl. Blackmoore lunged forward only to meet the claws of a giant green grizzly bear. "Stop trying to protect that backstabber! Let her fight for herself! She's surly shown you thats she's strong enough!" The only response she got was the wild roar and a swing of his claws at her head. She dodged the bear only barely but braced herself for what other attacks the Titans would unleash." Remember, she nearly killed all five of you. OH, and then of course there's me."
The green best continues to swipe and claw at Blackmoore, but she narrowly dodged every time. In his frustration the bear let out a wild roar and charged straight at the object of his fury. Blackmoore simply stood still and whispered to herself a small spell. Her eyes once again changed colors and when it seemed that she was about to be attacked she reached out her left hand and sent small sparks flying from her fingers right into the nose of her attacker.
Beast boy let out another strong roar in his pain. She had electrocuted him, an attack that send him flying back onto the hard ground. The bear soon changed back to his original form and twitched violently due to the pain pulsing throughout his body.
Starfire and Robin immediately rushed to his side to help him while Cyborg and Raven held their ground between Terra and Blackmoore.
Behind her two friends Terra stood frightened. She was trembling. She felt that at any moment her legs would give way and she would pass out onto the ground. This wasn't supposed to happen. The Titans weren't supposed to protect her, they weren't supposed to save her and Lena wasn't supposed to be here at all. She just wished that she was a statue again. At least then she didn't have to worry about people getting hurt. She didn't have to worry about being attacked and hated. She didn't have to worry about being a traitor.
A loud cry followed by a large thud brought Terra back from her distant thoughts. Cyborg lay motionless on the ground. Electrical sparks flashed all over his robotic frame. Raven was the only one fighting now. Beast Boy still needed the help of Robin and Starfire so there was no way they could come to help.
Raven surrounded herself in her shadow like power, seemingly making herself look bigger and more intimidating than before. The shadows formed to make the shape of a giant raven. With its wings spread out in the air the giant bird let out a painful squawk before diving down for the attack on Blackmoore.
"Azarath. Metrion. Zynthos!"
Blackmoore did not look phased. As Raven with all her power descended upon her she whispered quietly to herself. Another spell to protect her. At the last possible moment before she was to be hit, she raised both hands above her head. A bright light burst from her palms and struck back at the shadowy creature, repelling its power.
Raven fell hard to the ground, but quickly got up and dusted herself off before charging again at her opponent. She ran with all the speed she had, her dark powers flashing in her hands. Blackmoore blocked the punches and kicks and avoided the painful shadows. Then suddenly Blackmoore found an opening, and with her own power made a jab at Ravens stomach. Raven fell hard. She couldn't move and the other Titans noticed.
Starfire started to come to the rescue, but then heard Terra's shouts.
"No!" she screamed at the top of her lungs. "No! Please don't. Stop it!"
The beautiful alien girl stopped in mid air and all eye's turned to Terra.
"Please don't try to protect me." she tried to blink away her oncoming tears. "She's right. This is my fight."
All around her nobody said a word.
Blackmoore's eyes turned a steel black and a wicked smile etched itself onto her face.
Okay so I'm not exactly sorry that its taken me so song to update this one. I wasn't even planning on continuing it because of the lack of feedback and inspiration and other stuff. So don't get your panties in a bunch of it takes another 6 months for another chapter to come out. I'm very happy with the way this one came out. One for thing, chapters from here on will probably be allot shorter than the ones i've already written. Sorry if you like lengthy chapters but I just can't write long stuff like that. Hope you enjoyed!! XD
