"Talk to me! Why can't we just talk?" he asked, but then had to dodge yet another attack.
"Beast Boy! What is... oh... no way..."
"It... can't be!"
"I'm totally lost here" Private Hive said "what's going on?"
"That's..."
"Friend Terra?" Starfire asked, shocked to see that she attacked Beast Boy.
'Hm... I've seen that face before... but where?'
"Ok, recap: she was a Titan that could control earth, but struggled to use those powers. A man named Slade taught her and she became his apprentice, betraying us. That was when he took control of the city and everyone - probably you too - left."
"Huh, I think I was in vacation. Y'know, even villains have to unwind once in a while... man, that was a good trip."
"Moving on: we attacked them and she betrayed Slade, but all that disturbance on the geological structure woke a volcano and she stopped it, but such effort turned her to stone."
"Like it happened to everyone when Trigon arrived."
"Yes" he said, kind of not noticing that Private Hive of all people knew about Trigon "But then she came back - except she was a student and could not use her powers anymore. She left all the memories of herself as Terra behind."
"But now she has her powers back and is going berserk after Beast Boy."
"Yeah. They had a thing before she betrayed us."
"Beast Boy, did she say anything?"
"N-no."
"And look at that, her geokinesis... it's clumsy and unskillful. So she either just got a memory rush back and is running berserk because of it or... she is being controlled by someone else."
"Slade?"
"I think not... he was rather good in making use of her powers the last time."
"Guys, a little help here! She's getting better!"
"Friend Terra, stop this madness! We do not wish to harm you!" Starfire said, but then Terra threw a boulder against her and she had to use her starbolts to break it before it harmed her.
"Come on, girl, snap out of it!"
And then she made a shockwave that knocked Cyborg back.
'She only strike those who try to talk her out of it' Private Hive thought calmly as he got a tablet and started a research.
An earth pike almost hit Beast Boy and that was when he saw Private Hive using a tablet in the middle of a battlefield.
"Hey, dude, lend us a hand here!"
"Oh, wow, their firewall is really crappy" Private Hive told himself as he invaded the high school system.
"Dude!"
He juggled between cameras for a moment until he found it.
"She's there! She's at school right now!"
"That's impossible!"
"We're kinda defending ourselves from her, man!"
"Sloppy use of powers... silence... attacking only those who interact directly... it all fits. That is not Terra. That is a construct that was made to look like and have the same powers as your friend."
"What?"
"So, two final considerations" he said, shooting Terra. She dodged right to a gorilla Beast Boy, that held her tightly "one: the guy behind all this is a sick bastard. And two: that thing is not Terra. Destroy it."
And Beast Boy crushed her until the construct broke into dust, which proved Private's point.
"So, what now?"
"We better check on Robin and Raven. This guy is pulling some serious tricks out of his sleeve."
"Dammit! This Private Hive is a worse threat then I thought!"
"He's coming for you, pal. What are you going to do?"
"I am waiting for that, Nightshade. I eagerly wait for that moment."
And smiled.
"I defeated you, after all. How much harder battling him can be?"
'You did... or so you think, pal.'
