Beast Boy's eye widened, and his mouth fell open in shock. He stood there staring at Hannah for a few long seconds. Hannah bit her lip, and scratched the back of her head.

"Heh." she chuckled, embarrassed, "It makes more sense than clones from outer space…"

Beast Boy didn't say anything, but continued to stare with wide eyes.

"Uhhh… Hello? Earth to Beast Boy?.." His only response was a small twitch of the left eye…

"Uh.. Okay… I'm just gonna go to bed then.." Hannah slowly made her way towards the door. She had barely made it to the center of the room when B.B. came too.

"You're WHAT!?!! How did you—Where did—Ah—Wha….Huh?"

"I'm Terra's sister." Hannah said simply.

Beast Boy blinked, then shook his head in an effort to sort his thoughts.

"Okay. ONE (Beast Boy held up a finger): Terra didn't have a sister! She would have told me! TWO: It does not make more sense than alien body-snatchers! And THREEEE: What do you mean she is your sister? She's gone!" Beast Boy asked, perplexed.

Hannah sighed, "Alright, One (she mockingly held up a finger): Yes, she did! She just didn't tell you!"

"That's not possible! She definitely would have—"

"Did she tell you where she was from? Anything about her family? Or her past?"

"Well…" Beast Boy thought, "…She told me she had been to New Mexico…once…" He looked down at his shoes. Hannah, who had proven her point, moved on.

"Two:" She continued, "…well I don't really know that much about aliens, so just.. whatever." Beast Boy cheered silently, and put an imaginary tally on his side of the imaginary scoreboard.

"Three:" Hannah's tone changed to serious, "I think she's still alive. There's no way she can be dead." Beast Boy paused, and raised one eyebrow.

"How do you know?" Beast Boy asked slowly.

"Well…" Hannah thought about it for a few seconds. She opened her mouth to explain, but her words got caught on the edge of her mouth. It was as if the words in her head were too nervous to leave her mouth, for fear of sounding stupid and inane. Hannah licked her lips nervously, and took a deep breath for reassurance. "I don't know." She said lamely, "But I just… I can..." She paused and took another breath, "It just feels like she's alive."

Beast Boy stood silently for a moment, and then slowly nodded.

"Yeah." He said softly, "I know." He took a deep breath, sighed, and suddenly started moving towards the door. "C'mon! I want to check something out!" He said over his shoulder as he dashed out of the room. He sprinted down the hall, hit the elevator button, waited impatiently for a few seconds, then gave up and headed for the stairs.

"Where are we going?!?" Hannah yelled through the doorway of Terra's room. Beast Boy ignored her.

Lovely. Just lovely.

Hannah scowled, and jogged after him.

Beast Boy and Hannah stepped through a small crevice in a large rock. There were little bits of moss growing on the walls, spreading across the cave as slow and silent as death. Hannah looked around, and rubbed her arms. The cave itself was not cold, but it had a gloomy feeling about it that made her feel drained of happiness and warmth. They continued traveling through the immense rock until, suddenly, they entered a cave as big as an atrium. Hannah looked around, but saw nothing of interest other than a rock that strangely enough looked like a moose…

"Uhh, why are we—" Hannah stopped as she heard Beast Boy gasp. Beast Boy froze in his tracks, then suddenly bolted towards a large, completely flat rock. "What's… that?" Hannah became very still.

"Oh.. my.. God…" Beast Boy said, surprised. He looked around the cave, searching for something.

"Is she here, or something?" Hannah asked, confused.

"She was, but now she's gone!!" The corners of Beast Boy's mouth began to twitch upwards into a smile. "She's alive!"

Hannah smiled, overcome with joy. Her eyes were as bright as a supernova.

"I knew it! I knew she was alive!" she laughed happily. "For once," she thought to herself, "Things are looking up."

"How touching"

Hannah went cold, and her smile vanished. She felt a strange twinge at the back of her neck, and turned around. Standing in the back of the cave, half covered in shadow, was an orange and black mask. Beast Boy swung around, and glared at the mask.

"Slade" Beast Boy spat the name, like a curse, "What are you doing here?"

"I thought I might see how little Hannah was doing. Have you revealed your true name to him? Serra?" the evil voice hissed.

Hannah looked at Slade fiercely, and bent her knees into an attack position.

"What… do you… want." Hannah sharpened each word carefully, as if they were throwing knives.

"I just want to make sure you're happy, Serra." Slade's voice flowed easily, and had a soft tone. "I just want what you want."

"I want to find Terra." Hannah said fiercely. Slade paused briefly, and then chuckled slightly.

"I can help you find her."
