Disclaimer: I don´t own Teen Titans or Tokyo ghoul
Logan's P.O.V
I made it out of the tower as silently as possible so that no one noticed, getting caught was no longer an option but before leaving everything behind me, I picked some rocks and piled them, it was a grave for him. For my mask, a part of me crafted for the purpose of making those around me happier and to be happy myself. The mask no longer served its purpose there was nothing left in there, all I'll be is a leftover to be kept out of pity, not a place to call home so in front of his grave I swore to be happy in his place and find somewhere I belong to, what awaits me out there is a mystery, but I do know what there's left here and I hold no intention of coming back. Rest in peace Beast-boy you've done your part, let me do mine.
In order to move I went to my adoptive parents' house, it wasn't safe to keep my appearance the way it was. There are some of my abilities that I've kept secret from the rest of the Titans, for instance, I can change the appearance I have in my human form even the color, the thing is it's really tiresome to remain that way, and when I sleep or pass out I revert back clothes included (since I actually don't wear any), well, I turn back to the mental image of myself, it's possible to change this image, but I can't do it alone, for that I need a telepath that helps me build the new image, for that Mento will help me.
I boarded a plane to Africa, but the journey was not relaxing at all I had to keep my shape changed so that no one would notice a teen titan waking among the crowd, not just because of possible enemies looking for easy prey, also for not leaving a hint of where I was heading; so for the next 15 hours I had to keep another shape not an easy task if you consider that normally I maintain my transformation 1/2 an hour at most.
When I arrived at my destination I found a massive door, that was not expected, nonetheless I knocked upon it. To the call answered a very tall woman of slender figure and nice proportions, though she did seem a little too big about 6 meters tall, anyway I simply ran at her to be welcomed with a hug.
"Mom, I've missed you so much," I said while slowly reverted back to my five year old self and passed out.
When I woke up I was faced with my adoptive family, obviously they all were concerned, well almost all Mento merely made his best angry glare that showed his disappointment."So care to explain what happened?" Said my ever inquisitive adoptive father. "Well, the thing is Beast-Boy gave up on living and left to the other side, and apparently he took as his the form of the 15 year old me, so until we fix this I'm stuck as a prep schooler" annoyance could be heard in my tone.
Rita on the other hand seemed rather amused it's not every day that she could see her son, and somewhat she seemed happy about my form, she was hugging me the whole while like a first time mother, which certainly did not help with Mento's temper who obviously did not like the idea of a teen in the shape of a child getting all clingy with his wife so he went strait to the point.
"Then I have to give you back your mental image and then you head back to your tower, right?" So I answered "Not exactly, I am not going back there I have no reason to go back there, so I figured I'll try to live a normal life somewhere new, a fresh start, so I'll need a new shape one that doesn't scream green monster." "You want a normal shape! You should know well how much that will take, not to mention the amount of mental pain you'll suffer! Are you insane?" to close the argument I told him "I know what am getting into, and I'm not taking it lightly but it's all I got left".
New life
The boy stared out the window while the teacher continued the lecture, his short dark hair nearly covered his brown eyes showed a bored look. Life was a lot easier no worries the simple fact of being alive granted infinite possibilities, but taking an easy path that many others walk through was the best, no pressures just letting the current carry you slowly and peacefully, unlike many people Garfield was not looking for getting any spice in his life, he had his fair share in the past, so in the present, he chose the back row where he could observe life unfold before his eyes, the former titan was in his senior year and living a quiet life in the suburbs of Tokyo, just a few months from graduation tying to pick a university that had an easy major that would lead to a normal life.
He went to the different universities of the area in tours that his school organized not much to mention, but when he got to Kamii something did pick his interest, more like someone, her red hair that fluttered with the playfully wind, long and messy her nicely defined figure, and a captivating smile, she was about two or three years older than him but after all that happened to him a mature girl was well welcomed.
It all sated at the guide he saw her and so did she, at the time he though nice, yet that was all he never expected to go any further than some looks and a smile, if life taught him something was not to expect much of relationships with the other sex, but in the end she came to him asked him out he was happy and accepted.
The first date was pretty simple they encountered in front of Hachiko in Shibuya then they saw a movie, a horror one the weirdest part was not in the movie itself, but in the girl beside him, when everyone was howling in terror and shrieking she was laughing her ass off, it was rather refreshing but the surly got some bad glares thrown at them. Later they went bowling she was stunning not really your common well mannered cool beauty, brimming with confidence yet smiling at all times and she was a little clumsy indeed.
It was one odd emotion for him like seeing his past self once again, just a bit more calm and centered she knew how to have fun, but in the moment and place where she could let her true self run amok. The thing that captivated him the most was in the middle of their date was when they took a break and seated on a bench, she took out her notebook and told him to stay put, for the next hour or so she sat there drawing him, meanwhile he watched her really carefully every detail her smooth skin, her reddish locks, her soft lips all of her as she struggled, scribbled and did her very best to put all he was in the paper.
When they were heading to her home it started pouring so they quickly looked for shelter and the only thing they could find was an abandoned shack near falling from its own weight, dark, damp and incredibly inefficient for sheltering from the rain, yet that was all they had for now, so he approached her to keep themselves warm and without rhyme or reason he kissed her with his eyes closed.
He was amazed by the softness of her lips how good it felt to slowly explore her cavity at slow pace with his tongue, but most of all the metallic taste that lingered in all her mouth, strong and penetrating taste that filled his mouth and made him doubt his senses, after all, from all the girls he kissed in his life he could not recall a single one that held such intense flavor in her mouth; that flavor reminded him of something, what exactly it could be he did not know.
He opened his eyes after a second to be face with a changed girlfriend now displaying red pupils, her whites had turned black and a few red cracks could be seen in them, from her back a reddish dark flame flared, her factions now transformed showed a delighted smile and a little red trail flooded from those soft lips of her, he tried to ask her if she was ok, but he could not. His tongue was now gone.
He felt the pain hit him all of a sudden, from the impression he fell onto his back and looked at the girl that he had spent his afternoon with, from his knowledge of the animal world he could tell her look was that of a predator ready for the hunt as it enjoyed the look of fear of the prey in its last moments. It took but a second for him to choose and get ready to engage combat with his predator. He wasn't planning on dying today.
He morphed into a monkey and climbed to the top of the roof to scape, but he was received by a rain of crystals shot at him like arrows and fell in front of the monster he transformed in the middle of the fall into an Ankylosaurus and swung his massive tail knocking her far away. He then changed into a cheetah and ran to the exit when suddenly the girl appeared behind him and cut his left leg, but his speed was too much so he went flying into the wall, in order to reduce the impact he turned into an elephant and when he hit the wall it shook the building to its foundations.
It hurt so much he barely opened his eyes to see the monster of flaming back as it approached calmly enjoying the hunt. Suddenly the shack gave out and fell into them squashing the girl under its weight killing her instantly, as for him his upper half had ended outside of the house while his lower half was smashed to bits by the derbies of the house. His vision was blurry he laid down gasping for air, few minutes left to live all he heard were some footsteps approaching, but his consciousness did not last enough to notice who they belonged to or make sure they were real and simply passed out. In his last moments he thought how laughable was his whole romantic life, falling from the arms of the girl who loved him, to the arms of the girl who could see him as nothing but a friend to finally end up with a girl that saw him just like food. Her name engraved into his memory as the last girl he met: Aoki Aki.
He could see his five year old blond self getting carried by his parents, all of them smiling as beast-boy stood beside them with an idiotic grin they all seemed so happily reunited in a complete bliss. Garfield walked toward them and noticed a hooded figure, no facial aspects to notice at all, just some long bone hands; the figure was encircling the group and they did not notice. With all his might he ran toward them and nearly reached them, just before he got to touch them the hooded figure pushed him aside taking them away as he fell into the abyss. The abyss was much like the sea, he was falling rapidly into the darkness, when all of a sudden it was dyed in red and he felt like two people were pushing him up out of the dark as he heard indistinct voices.
He woke up in a white room not feeling much of his body, the smell of disinfectant filled the air he could hear a distant beeping and the voices of a crowd, he smelled something delicious near him soothing like a soup in the cold winter. He slowly opened his eyes and when he did, they changed to those of the monster that hunted him last night intermittently one of them got monstrous while the other was normal repeating the cycle every few seconds until it stopped.
