Hey guys! I'm back, I'm starting to get back to use with how I'm posting, but it's soon gonna change once more because school. X (

Thanks Grlwithapen for being my beta! Also, thanks to everyone who's about to read this story, and thanks to everyone who commented on all the past chapters. I know to some of you this may sound upsetting, but I'm afraid that the stories almost over. Bummer right? But no worries, I still have two other stories that are still at the beginning. So….there's always that. IN OTHER NEWS! I've posted quite a few new videos on youtube! Check them out, my channel is Greengirl2121 on , please take a look!

Anyway…lights, camera, action.

Everyone was now discussing their plans for attacking Slade. They had all decided on attacking in three days. Terra was talking with Raven, Starfire, and Bumble Bee but kept an ear open incase race began to cry again. She had fallen asleep once she said the pain had stopped, and everyone went back to the planning.

"I say I start it off because he never met me and doesn't know what I can do." Bumble Bee said holding one of her Bee shooters. "Also because I love starting a fight." She said smiling slyly.

"I most agree," Starfire said nodding. "And then I shall take advantage of his shock and hit him from behind."

"Then while you two are using everything you have to defeat him, I'll rush in and hit him with everything I have." Raven said with her eyes closed. After all that's happened she hadn't had a single moment to meditate.

"Sounds good to me," Bumble Bee said leaning back and closing her eyes. "So where exactly are we going to start this thing, Terra?"

Terra was brought out of her train of thought and came back into the conversation. "I was thinking that I would go back to school, tell my teachers I'll be out for a while, then just walk around the city and keep my eyes open for Slade."

"That is a most wonderful idea friend!" Starfire said trying to kiss up to Terra for what's happening to her sister.

Terra just rolled her eyes and stood from her seat. "I'm going to check in on Grace."

"You should not!" Starfire said warningly. "It is un-safe to be around someone so young with new powers. I am most certain your sister is alright."

Terra brushed her point of view and turned back to the infirmary just as a blue ray blasted the sliding door off. Terra gasped and turned back to Starfire. "My sisters fine, huh?"

But Terra didn't wait for Starfire's response as she ran at light speed down the hall and peaked in the door to find her little sister in the bed rubbing her nose. Terra walked in slowly and carefully trying not to startle her sister in to using her new powers again.

When Grace looked up and saw what had happened to the door her eyes grew wide. "But…I only sneezed!"

Terra laughed. "Well, it's alright. When I lived here there was always some part of this building falling apart or blowing up. Flying doors due to sneeze rays are no different."

Grace laughed as she swung her legs around and stood from the infirmary bed. "I think I'm alright…can I come out now? I want to talk to Starfire!"

"How about this," Terra began. "You should stay in here just a little while longer, but why don't I go get Starfire. Do you want to talk to her about your powers?"

Grace nodded her head vigorously. "I need to know how to control them, and hide them from mom and dad!"

"You don't want to tell them?" Terra asked. "Why not?"

"The same reason why you didn't tell mom and dad about your powers; I don't want them to think I'm a freak, and I don't want to hurt them!"

Terra nodded because she knew what Grace was going through, but she has a new friend to help her with her powers. Terra didn't have that luxury; just a strange and mysterious man trying to get the edge on his enemies.

"I'll be right back." Terra said leaving the room to get Starfire.

When she reached the others Bumble Bee and Starfire were playing with Silkie. Starfire reached for him and held him up then pulled him in for a hug. "Oh, my little Bumgore! I love you dearly!"

Terra almost smiled. "Starfire, my sister needs you."

Starfire nodded and placed Silkie in Bumble Bee's arms; she was disgusted for a second then hugged him gently. Terra and Starfire left the room and walked back to Grace.

"What does she wish to talk to me about?" Starfire asked.

"She wants to know how to control her powers," Terra said as they stopped in front of the door that was now lying on the floor still smoking from the hot ray. Starfire gasped.

"I have never caused that much destruction when I gained my powers." Starfire said looking closer at the door.

"As you can see," Terra said stating the obvious. "Grace is having trouble with controlling them, and she needs to get them under control so she can hide them from my parents."

"I understand," Starfire said entering the room. "Do you wish to join us? It is possible that you could give her advice on controlling her powers too."

Terra nodded and followed Starfire into the dark room.

After a few hours of just talking, Terra had finally agreed to let Grace come out of the infirmary and everyone, except Robin, was sitting next to the obstacle course watching as Grace learned more and more about her new powers.

Starfire was typing away like made into the controls for the obstacle course making it ideal for Grace's powers and also putting it at a level where she would not get hurt.

Once finished, Starfire flew over to Grace to begin the lessons. "Grace the first thing you must know, is how to access your powers through emotion."

"Why emotion?" Grace questioned.

Starfire smiled. "Because our emotions affect our powers; for example!" Starfire said holding up a finger as she recalled a memory.

"I remember when I was little that my Zorcnaf got eaten by a rampaging Portzalor. I was most upset for my Zorcnaf, so upset that I could not fly, or shoot star bolts… But When I remember happier times, like when the Teen Titans came to be, I am confident and feel glad and strong enough to make my powers useful!"

"Alright, well I'm happy!" Grace said with a smile; but Starfire shook her head.

"It is not always just enough to be happy, you must also have confidence that your powers will help you with the tasks in hand, and that you are able to concentrate."

"Well how do I do that? I get distracted easily…" Grace said trailing off.

Starfire looked over at Raven. "I believe that Raven can help you in that area. For you see, Raven's powers are also linked to her emotions; but she has to stay calm and focused even while she's not using her powers."

Raven walked over and nodded. "I have to meditate everyday to keep my powers under control. It also helps to read quietly, and drink warm herbal tea."

"So I have to do all of that?" Grace questioned.

"It's just a suggestion, if you have other things that calm you down and keeps you at peace, you can also do that." Raven said as she flew back to her spot next to Terra.

Starfire nodded as she turned back to Grace. "Now that you know how to access your powers, you can now learn how to fly!"

Starfire smiled as she flew up and around the tower once to see what Grace would be learning. When she landed in front of Grace once more, she was awe struck. "TEACH ME HOW!"

Starfire giggled. "Settle friend! The first step is to take a memory and focus on how it makes you happy and fills you with confidence."

Grace nodded as she thought; she smiled when she had a memory in mind. "I've got one!"

"May you please share it with us?" Starfire asked hopefully.

Grace nodded. "I chose the time when I won a race at my school. It wasn't a huge competition, and it wasn't for an after school sport, but it still makes me happy because we had to run around the track twice without stopping, and I did that when I was only seven! I was a little slow, but I still won!"

Starfire smiled. "I am most happy for you! Now you must focus on this memory and fill your body with confidence and concentrate on the idea of flying."

Starfire flew at least ten feet above Grace's head. "I wish for you to start at this level, just try to fly as high as I am at the moment!" She shouted back at Grace.

Grace nodded as she focused on the memory. She closed her eyes and pictured her crossing the dirt line the she had drawn. She remembered how happy she was when her friend had told her she won. Grace smiled as she let out a quick sigh and opened her eyes. She looked down to see the Titans and her sister getting further away for her. She let out a squeal of joy as she reached Starfire. Then she looked up and around at the lit up sky line of the city.

"I did it Starfire!" Grace said as she hugged her new alien friend. "What do I learn next?"

"Next would be star bolts. But before we move on to that lesson, I wish for you to practice flying for ten minutes. If you will please fly around the tower until I tell you to stop."

"Alright!" Grace said smiling as she flew away. Starfire smiled as she flew back to the ground and landed next to Terra and Raven.

"I'm so glad that Grace is alright with having her powers, and I wanted to thank you for teaching her how to use them…" Terra stopped. "And I want to apologize for freaking out so many times earlier…"

"It is I who should be apologizing. I should not have let Grace eat the Zorca Berries." Starfire said bowing her head.

"Well, I think we're both sorry and we should leave it at that!" She said smiling.

"Agreed!" Starfire said in response as they turned their attention back to Grace. She flew in circles and did flips around the tower and occasionally let out a joyful squeal. She flew fast to the top of the tower, then did a nose dive down the side and flew close to the water's edge around the tower.

Starfire became concerned. "Grace! I wish for you to slow down! It is most not safe to fly at such a high speed!"

Grace brushed Starfire's advice aside like crumbs on her shirt as she flew even faster to the top of the tower and landed.

"I RULE!" she screamed loudly out of joy from her new powers. Terra laughed as she summoned a rock to take her to the top of the tower. She stepped on top and flew to the top next to Raven and Starfire. When they were half way there, they heard a loud blood curtailing scream. They quickened in speed to reach the top as the other Titans were trying to get to the top of the tower as soon as possible.

Terra was the first to reach the top; and when she did she screamed. Starfire and Raven arrived shortly after and they too gasped at the sight.

Grace was lying unconscious at a large dark masses massive feet; Starfire thought on her feet as she raised a hand that filled the night air with a glowing green light.

The large mass stepped over the silent and still little girl lying on the ground as he stepped into the light. Starfire, Raven, and Terra all gasped in shock as they realized that it was Plasmus on top of their roof.
