Chapter 11: The Pain (Part 1)
White Beast Boy stared at the city. His face was emotionless but deep inside in his heart; his heart was filled with emotional pain. He kept think about Raven and those words on the day she departed. He continued to stare at the city as he was deep in his thoughts.
With White Beast Boy's tremendous power, the crime of Jump City dropped rapidly though there was still some serious bank robbery and other crime cases. The Titans began to have more spare time. Robin now frequently goes out with Starfire on a date. Cyborg often played Gamestation and go out on dates with Bumblebee. They began to feel relaxed but they still have training lessons every 2 days.
White Beast Boy continued to stare at the city. His mind appeared a flashback. He and the other Titans had finally defeated their long-time villain, Slade a week ago. They rushed toward his hideout as he prepared to unleash an army of Slade-bots to the city. The Titans fought the robots while White Beast Boy and Slade fought a battle.
Flashback:
"Titans! Stop Slade's army at all cost! We can't let them to the city!" shouted Robin.
The others were battling the Slade-bots fiercely. Cyborg had upgraded his sonic cannon's firepower. Half a hundred Slade-bots were destroyed by Cyborg's sonic cannon. Starfire's starbolts had been power up by White Beast Boy's magic which made the bolts larger and more damaging. Starfire used her starbolts and then about 250 Slade-bots were destroyed. Robin had gained the "Azarath Zepellion Ray" from Beast Boy. He then used the beam to attack the robots. Because of the high temperature of the beam, all the bots overloaded and they exploded. The robot threat was stopped but Slade wasn't. White Beast decided to fight Slade by himself.
"Beast Boy, wish you luck." said Robin
"Yea man, show that criminal what are you made of!" said Cyborg.
"Yes friend, maybe you can take down Slade once and for all!" said Starfire.
White Beast Boy then proceeded to a chamber which he sensed that Slade was sitting. He opened the metal door and he saw that Slade was sitting in a chair.
"Hello Beast Boy. You are here to challenge me? Why you are no match for me." said Slade.
"You have to ask." replied White Beast Boy dryly.
"Oh so you really think you could defeat me? Think again." Slade taunted as he fetched a sword and rushed toward White Beast Boy.
White Beast Boy quickly set up a white energy shield in his hand before Slade went through him with his metal sword. The energy shield caused the sword to explode, leaving Slade unarmed. Slade then started to punch White Beast Boy with his fists fiercely. White Beast Boy easily dodged every attack since he can read Slade's mind with his telepathy powers.
"So you are more powerful than I imagined. No matter, I shall roast you into a barbecued chicken!" said Slade. He then lifted his right hand with a high temperature laser pistol and shot at White Beast Boy.
White Beast Boy then turned into a normal raven before he disappeared.
"Coward! Come out fight!" shouted Slade.
"As you wish." replied Beast Boy creepily. The green raven then appeared behind Slade and then opens its mouth. A small scale but powerful sonic wave headed toward Slade, making him uncomfortable.
Slade covered his ears and shouted in agony before he fired the pistol toward Beast Boy. The beam was much faster than last time. White Beast Boy has no time to escape so the beam hit his shoulder. Because of this, his right arm was destroyed so his was missing his hand.
"Well Beast Boy, looks like I won." Slade chucked. But White Beast Boy took no notice. He looked at his missing arm then his eyes glowed white with power. Suddenly, some dust started to appear and they gather around White Beast Boy's missing arm. Slow, his arm began rebuilding. Before long, his arm was rebuilt.
"WHAT? How could that possible?" asked Slade.
"Nothing is impossible Slade." replied White Beast Boy. Slade then furiously fire his laser gun toward White Beast Boy again but this time the beam was much bigger. White Beast Boy then stretched his hands and then a white bolt of energy formed, before he crossed his hands and then a white beam of energy launched toward Slade's laser beam. Due to the white beam was much stronger than the laser beam, White Beast Boy easily defeated Slade. The beam destroyed the laser gun and Slade was wounded.
"You may have defeated me this time Beast Boy but I shall return!" vowed Slade. He then turned and ran for the door. Just when he reached the door, a white raven rose up in front of him before receded into White Beast Boy. White Beast Boy then kicked Slade with his right leg glowing with white power. Slade was knocked out instantly. White Beast Boy then put a permanent sleeping charm on Slade, making him will sleep forever.
White Beast Boy then carried Slade's body with his powers and headed out the chamber. The other Titans finished battling the robots and they were panting. When they saw that White Beast Boy had defeated Slade, they rushed toward White Beast Boy.
"Yea Beast Boy you have finally help us defeated the one who terrorized the city for 5 years!" shouted Robin.
"Bo-Yeah! Man you are awesome!" said Cyborg.
"Friend, you are victorious!" shouted Starfire happily.
"Dude, lets celebrate later. We need to get Slade to the prison." said White Beast Boy.
They then left the place before they put Slade into jail and celebrated at that evening.
End flashback
White Beast Boy didn't celebrate at that evening. His heart was filled with pain because of Raven's taunting words. He now couldn't sleep very well like the first day after Raven had left.
He continued to stare at the city. He then wondered when Raven gona to learn that the only way for an Azarathian to be strong was to love someone who didn't have a blood relationship with them. He then turned around and prepared to head toward his room.
But just when he was about to leave, he suddenly felt huge amount of pain in his heart and it was unbearable. He tried to heal it but without success. But then Robin came into the room and he saw White Beast Boy was clenching in pain and his right hand was holding his heart. Robin realized that White Beast Boy must have suffered some pain from his heart.
"BEAST BOY! WHAT IS HAPPENING TO YOU?" shouted Robin.
"My heart really hurts. Robin I need to be in the medical wing." White Beast Boy managed to chock out before he fell into unconscious.

Meanwhile, at Azarath, Arella and Raven watched White Beast Boy as he fell into unconscious. Raven was shocked when she saw White Beast Boy had the white cloak but now she saw that White Beast Boy had huge amount of pain in his heart before he fainted. She still didn't know why.
Arella turned away before she muttered "Raven, I think it is time for you to understand the true way of getting strong for an Azarathian."
