I'd like to say thanks to everyone that has read this so far. It has been very fun writing this story. Some laughs, some crying, some facepalming, and other things along the way. I hope to be able to close this story within the next couple chapters. And maybe, if people want, I'll write a sequel to this.

This is also going to be something new for me to try and write. I kind of did it once with Raven, but this time, she actually gets to witness some of Beast Boy's past (among other things) with her own eyes. Some scenes will be from the show, while some others will be my own thoughts as to what happened in between or after a certain episode(s).

Mailbox Time (You all certainly shocked me with the amount for last chapter!):

Invader Johnny: He can morph into a little puppy. I just wonder what emoticlone would use it?

Artemis Raven Courtney: You do have it all down pat I see. But where is that demonic copy hiding?

RPGPersona: It's my way of saying how he houses all his different animals. Heck, you could probably add space since he could turn into alien animals if you wanted to. Great question on the smell, you'll just have to wait and see. I hope you're prepared for more facepalming this chapter. And I'm kind of sorry, but Raven won't be battling heartless in his memories, at least, not yet as far as I know.

Bluedog197: I have a very vivid picture of what his emoticlones would look like. And since Raven's could use her powers, why not Beast Boy's? I hope you'll like a look at Beast Boy's past, through Raven's eyes.

Santoramon: Well, if I kept Happy's color on Beast Boy, I didn't think Raven could have taken it, seeing Beast Boy in pink. Nor would I think Beast Boy would ever dress in pink. So I made a few modifications to different colors of his personality, and even added new emoticlones since he would have experienced a lot more than Raven. Some are still the same like Knowledge and Anger.

Sarin5150: Let's see if you learned a larger vocabulary to describe how awesome this chapter will be in the time I've taken to update it.

22oliviafoster: Let's just say I fell in love with cliffhangers reading other stories. Plus, it helps to set the scene and mood for the next one. Making it easier for me to write.

HornedGoddess: Sorry to keep you hanging, here's the next update though.

BlackCrowWhiteRaven: It took some time for me to fine tune my writing style. But I'm now okay with it mostly at this point. And like I said, I hate to leave an unfinished story behind me. Plus, if you look at I'm Sorry, I didn't receive much support at first. I literally bet that the update to this chapter will make the popularity of this soar past that other story. But I still write it because it's fun. I'm never going to give up on these two.

Something else that's new that I'm going to try here as well.

Poll Question: What is your favorite canon pairing on Teen Titans?

With that in mind...

Enjoy Chapter Six!

Chapter Six: Chain of Memories

Raven found herself standing on rocky ground. She had just sent herself into Beast Boy's memories. But she couldn't really tell where in his memories she actually was. All she could see at first was a bright white light surrounding her field of vision. The only reason why she could even tell the ground was rocky was because it felt hard and uneven.

Finally, the light faded, and she found herself looking at a bright sunrise coming up in the distance. She heard what sounded like waves crashing onto a shoreline. Finally, as her eyes adjusted to the change in lighting, she saw that she was standing on the edge of Titan's island. Overlooking the bay towards Jump City. It was obviously morning to Raven at the moment.

Raven became confused.

'That's odd… why am I back on Titans Island again? I thought for sure that I put myself into his own memories... maybe it was all just a dream?'

Raven turned around from the bay, intent on walking back to the tower, when she stopped. The Tower wasn't where it was supposed to be anymore.

Instead, a destroyed Gordanian cruiser was sticking out of the ground, right where the Tower should have been. She then looked off to her right, and saw herself.

She was standing on the shoreline, looking out into the distance. Cyborg, Robin, and Beast Boy were standing around her copy.

'Okay, I guess I am in his memories after all. Why else would she be seeing a copy of myself?' After that thought, she heard Beast Boy start to speak. Apparently, she came in the middle of the conversation.

"Yeah, if you like sunshine, and the beach." He said while nudging his memory of Raven with his elbow.

Raven watched herself chuckle at his attempt at a joke to her. "You know, you're kind of funny." Memory Raven said to him.

Raven felt shock, then confusion, followed by extreme happiness run through her in less than a second. Catching her way off guard. 'What in hell's name just happened?'

"You think I'm funny?" Shiny lights appear in Beast Boy's eyes.

'Dude, no one's ever said I'm funny before! And that laugh… and that smile oh hers there…' Raven blinked, that hadn't been her thoughts either. Was she going insane.

"Dude, I know some jokes." He said in an excited voice to the memory of Raven. Raven found her face and eye twitching quite comical and almost laughed at it. That was when it happened again. Another surge of happiness that almost made her fall went through her.

'I want to make her smile and laugh at me like that again.'

Those hadn't been her thoughts. Nor her emotions. Again.

And as Starfire approached the group of heroes, Raven was again surrounded by a bright white light that blinded her. Leaving her more confused than ever. She couldn't see what was happening, but she still felt it when the ground beneath her changed. Becoming smooth, yet still hard as rock. She figured she must be moving to a new memory now. After a couple more moments, the blinding white light vanished. Leaving Raven standing in the lobby of Titan's Tower.

She could tell this easily because of two major reasons. The two rows of chairs running down the middle of the big hallway. And the humongous, steel encased doors at the front. Those two alone made it kind of obvious just where she was.

'Okay… I know where I am now. Question is, when am I?' She thought to herself.

As if to answer, she saw the huge doors open. Bright sunlight was coming in, indicating it was still day outside. Two figures were coming in through the doorway. One of them supporting the other. It was Raven, supporting a limping Beast Boy in. He was speaking as memory Raven set him down in one of the chairs.

"That didn't just happen… Tell me that didn't just happen." He was rubbing his injured leg as he said it.

Memory Raven spoke in her old monotone. "It did happen. We cannot change the truth (pulls down her hood). No matter how much we dislike it."

Raven felt another blast of emotion hit her again. This one seemed closer to sadness and misery than happiness.

Beast Boy was still rubbing his leg. 'Sigh, I messed up in battle again… maybe Mento was right after all. Maybe I'm not cut out to be a superhero.'

Again, more thoughts entering her head that weren't hers. 'All right, I keep on feeling emotions, and getting weird thoughts in my mind. They're not mine, so who…'

It seemed like the light bulb finally clicked over her head. Her face became one of realization (While everyone reading this face palmed while thinking 'It's about damn time!').

Raven saw Memory Raven reach out and cover Beast Boy's leg with her healing powers. His torn ligaments underneath his skin realigning and repairing themselves. An injury that would have had him out for weeks healed in mere seconds. He looked up at her with a little bit of surprise, but a small grin still appeared on his face.

"Who knew we had a doctor in the house… thanks." he said to her in a grateful tone. A blast of happiness and determination sped through Raven. Who was quickly adapting to the rapid changes in emotion.

'You know what, I don't care what Mento said to me. I'll continue to train. I'll continue to grow. I'll prove I'm a valuable member of this team… I already lost two families before, I'm not losing another one again.'

"No problem." Memory Raven replied. Just as the huge doors opened again in the background.

Raven was left reeling at his last thought as the bright light enveloped her again. She was to deep in thought to notice it though. 'Even back then, he had considered us to be family. But what did he mean… he's already lost two families? He's… already experienced loss before?'

She had no more time to dwell on this thought. The white light again vanishing. Dropping Raven into what looked like Beast Boy's room. She looked out the window and saw stars starting to appear in a darkening sky.

The sliding door opened, startling her for a second. And in came a very down looking Beast Boy. She was hit by even more sadness and depression again. He walked past where she was standing, moving to his desk. She saw him open what looked like a small book, but then he took out a pencil and started to write in it.

'A journal?!' She thought to to herself. Shocked that he had one, and that she, nor the other Titans had known about it.

Yep, after looking over his shoulder, she found that he was indeed writing into what looked like his personal journal. She felt like she might be invading his privacy, but curiosity won out in the end. She was in his memories after all. And it was likely he was choosing to show her specific memories of his anyways (At least, that was Knowledge's guess). So she started to read as he wrote in his sloppy handwriting. Somehow managing to make out words from writing that would have made a first grader's look great.

Man, Doctor Light was absolutely horrible today. Either that dude upgraded his tech again, or Robin has been slacking us to much in training. I'm hoping for the latter, he trains us enough as it is already! Anyways, those flash balls of his hurt my eyes too! I'm still seeing spots as I write this. Normally I'd ask Raven if she could heal it for me, now that she's like the team's healer. But today, she just acted… weird. I'd never seen her look at me like that before. Pure, absolute Rage. When all I'd been doing was seeing if she was all right.

The changeling let out a sigh. Raven barely recalled this day, it hadn't been one of her best ones as a Titan. She hadn't even known that it had hurt Beast Boy this badly.

I'm really starting to wonder if it's worth it anymore. No matter what I do, it always seems like she hates me. And that look today is only confirming my worst fears. Why does she have to be so creepy and mysterious to me? Why does she act so damn unemotional all the time? I mean, I got her to smile and laugh at me once. And now she treats me like my tofu eggs! Still, it's my turn to cook breakfast tomorrow. Maybe if I made her something to eat… she might tell me why she was mad at me yesterday. I wonder, would she like the tofu eggs more than me?

She honestly didn't know how to react to this one. 'He thought I hated him, just because he saw a glimpse of my rage.' She thought to herself. Her father's Rage had always ruined stuff for her. Her friendships, childhood, feeling emotions, even being around people was hard for her.

The white light came again. But left quicker than it had before.

She was still in his room. Again, the door slid open. Except this time, instead of a depressed changeling, it was a very jubilant looking Beast Boy. Raven was hit by so much happiness this time, she briefly wondered if this was the time that Terra had came to the Titans the first time.

He went to his desk again, pulling out the same journal as he started to write in it. The wide grin never leaving his green face. Raven again looked over his shoulder as she started to read.

I knew it! She actually said she liked me! She really doesn't hate me like I thought! I haven't been this happy since I actually beat Cyborg at that racing game on our Gamestation!

After writing this, he seemed to calm down a little bit.

I also learned that she is more complex than I originally thought. I learned why she has to act and do things the way she does. It must be tough, having to deal with that thing inside of her every day. It's no wonder she acts the way she does now.

He paused for a second.

I was wrong yesterday. She isn't creepy and mysterious as I first thought. Raven is just like us on the inside. She just isn't allowed to show it in fear of that part of her getting loose.

He paused for another second.

I hope she never reads this. Otherwise, it might damage this weird friendship I'm trying to build with her niw that I know she is my friend. But I swear, no matter how long it takes, no matter how many times she tries to hurt me for it, I will always try to get her to show her emotions. Both the good and the bad. Because I've seen them, and they are a part of her. And no one, no one… should have to go through their lives without having to feel anything.

He smiled to himself, closing his journal. "Well, I better go help Chrome Dome with that Breakfast Explosion deal." He said to himself.

He walked out of the room, leaving behind a stunned Raven, who was still staring at the spot he had put the journal in. She found herself wanting to reach for it. But the light came again. Leaving Raven to her own thoughts as the memory changed again.

'So that's why he always tried to get me to react… even when it was just an argument. He wasn't doing it to make me angry, he was doing it to get me to show my emotions… although he could have chosen a better one than anger. Wait, he hoped that I never read it, does that mean he doesn't have control over which memories he shows me?'

The light faded. Leaving Raven in almost the center of a large, underground cavern. And in the middle, stood the stone statue of Terra.

Raven walked up to it. She could still see the stone tears that had fallen from her eyes as she was encased in stone. Even though Terra had betrayed them and broke Beast Boy's heart, she had still felt sorry for her. Seeing Terra's powers overwhelm her and threaten everyone in the city above. It had reminded her very harshly why she always strove to keep her powers under control.

Raven heard the sound of flapping wings behind her. She turned around and saw a green falcon land on the ground. Holding a small bouquet of flowers. The green falcon morphed into Beast Boy, now holding the flowers in his left hand.

She noticed that he was alone. Not one of the other Titans was with him. Usually Raven, or Cyborg had accompanied him. Raven with a spell that she thought would work. Or Cyborg with the newest solution he had created. Or both of them, using a mixture of science and magic. It had all ended in failure.

'This must be sometime after the incident. When me and Cyborg had tried all available options.' Raven thought to herself.

She saw Beast Boy gently lay the bouquet on the ground in front of the statue. A small frown adorning his face. As he started to speak to Terra.

"Terra… at this point, I don't know if you can even hear me anymore. But in case you can still hear, I just wanted to let you know... this is the last time I'm coming here for a long while."

Raven had expected to get hit by a blast of emotion again at his words. But was surprised to find that he was calm as he spoke to Terra for what was likely the last time.

Pause "What I'm trying to say Terra… is that I'm going to try and move on from you. Sigh, I'll always appreciate the memories you helped me to make. For helping me to feel accepted and happy."

Long Pause "But the truth is, I can't just abandon her Terra. Chuckles You know, I was a real jerk to her for the past couple months. I'm actually surprised she hasn't thrown me into another dimension yet."

His posture slouched a little. As this time, Raven was hit with a wave of sadness that left her dizzy. "Did you know, she actually said I was funny at one time? And ever since then… well… I guess that's why you could say I became attracted to you in the first place. You were so much easier for me to like than her. I know, that inside, she finds me funny. But… it just… hurts… every time she says some sarcastic remark to my face, sends a glare my way when I try to make her smile, or when I try to get her to come out of that damn room of hers."

He looked up at the statue one more time. "I can't stop trying though. For her sake. No matter how much she might hurt me, it can't hurt as bad as having to stay unfeeling forever like her."

He turned around and started to walk away. Then he stopped and turned his head one more time. Sadness, creeping away back to a calm like state. "Goodbye… Terra. Me and the others will miss you. And all the fun times we shared together."

The changeling turned around. And walked out of the cave. He never looked back.

Raven was left, standing by the statue to absorb the words he had just spoken. The blinding light from before came again. Indicating the change to a new memory. 'He… let her go… but… why? I thought that, he liked her… loved her even.'

The light cleared again, leaving her standing in a hallway in Titan's Tower. More specifically, her hallway. Her door was to the right of her. RAVEN written in the middle of it. As she watched, she saw Beast Boy, turning around the corner. He stopped in front of it. Waves of guilt were running through Raven. She briefly wondered if he had just pulled a prank on her or something. Things like green hair dye and pink cloaks came to mind. Still, he had a sad look adorning his face, so it had to have been bad. After a couple minutes, he finally raised his hand.

Knock knock "Raven, it's me. Look, I'm sorry."

'Oh no!' Raven knew when she was at now. It had been the worst day of her life. Which was really saying something since she was born a half-demon. Raven tried to run away from it, but found she couldn't move from her spot this time.

She was forced to hear her sad, broken reply from behind the doorway. "For what? You're not the one who-"

Beast Boy interrupted. Something Raven had been grateful for. "No, I'm sorry that… he broke your heart."

Sigh "I know it was all a lie… But he was the only person who ever made me feel like I wasn't… creepy… and don't try to tell me I'm not."

'Raven...' The guilt she was feeling increased tenfold.

"Okay, fine. You're way creepy. But that doesn't mean you have to stay locked in your room."

Pause "You think you're alone Raven… but you're not."

He stood there, waiting for her to say something. To reply back to him. But then, the door opened. And Memory Raven stepped out, and hugged the surprised changeling. Raven felt the guilt go away instantly, being replaced with confusion, shock, and happiness.

'Dude… is this actually Raven? Queen of personal space, hugging me? Yet, it feels so nice. I better check to make sure it's really her though.' He gripped her shoulders, putting her at arms length so he could look her in the eye. 'Crap, I might seem like a jerk to her now… quick, this could be the perfect time to tell her how you feel you idiot!'

"Uhhh… Ow!" He said at the end as a stankball hit him in the side of the head, knocking him to the ground.

Raven looked to the side, and saw Cyborg standing there. His arm up high.

"Woohoo! Stankball!" Cyborg shouted out, effectively shattering their moment.

'Damn it Cyborg, do you have to ruin everything!' Beast Boy was getting off the ground, moaning out loud. His head still covered in the stankball. He looked up in surprise though, when memory Raven grabbed it with her hand. 'What is she going to do with that?'

Then, it glowed black, as Memory Raven's face took on an evil grin as she looked at the now nervous Cyborg. Beast Boy was staring in awe from his lower vantage point at her.

'You know, even if I didn't tell her, I'm at least glad she's feeling a lot better now. That's all I could ever want from her.'

The bright light came, just as Memory Raven chased after a now fleeing Cyborg who was screaming for mercy. She was a little disappointed she didn't get to see the rest of it. But it was quickly replaced with other thoughts. 'I thought, he had been disgusted when I hugged him? Did that mean… he had actually enjoyed it? And when he said he wanted to tell me how he felt... No I can't think like that, he liked Terra. Not some ugly half-demon witch like me. And even if he did, I didn't really like him like that back then… did I?'

The blinding light vanished, leaving Raven standing on the shoreline of Titan's Island again. Only this time, it was the middle of the night. A full moon was just on the horizon in the distance.

She saw him, sitting on the shoreline, staring at his reflection in the water. He was radiating sadness and depression this time. Raven didn't have to think very hard to realize where she was in his memories now.

Raven heard soft footfalls behind her. She turned around, and sure enough, she saw herself. Memory Raven walked right through the area she was standing and stopped a little distance behind him. Beast Boy heard Memory Raven walking up behind him.

"So, he was the one who hurt you… right? Not me." Beast Boy asked her.

"He broke into the tower to attack you, and wound up attacking me too." Memory Raven said in her monotone voice to him.

"Ugh, I can't believe I ate meat. I acted like a jerk. I'm sorry." He replied. Again, that guilt from before was starting to come off him.

"You weren't yourself." Memory Raven.

'Are you kidding?! I ate meat, acted like a complete jerk, and I attacked you! I'll argue with you, I'll take the physical abuse you give me, I'll always do what I can to get you to react, but I'd never attack you!'

"Cyborg says the chemicals at the lab messed with my DNA… unleashed something… primal." He replied glumly.

"And he gave you an antidote… you're better now."

Another wave of misery came off Beast Boy. Raven was seriously starting to wonder how she, the empath on the team, had never been able to see just how deep his emotions ran at times. As she was starting to figure out.

"Yeah… but that thing… that beast… it came from inside me… and it's still there… I can feel it." Beast Boy said, looking at his haunted expression in the water. Raven saw the memory of herself walk quietly beside him.

"Good." Raven said as she sat down next to him. This surprised him as she looked him in the eye. "If it wasn't for that beast, I might not be here right now... Having that thing inside doesn't make you an animal… knowing when to let it out, is what makes you a man."

'Raven… you have no idea...'

"Hmmm… maybe you should call me… Beast Man from now on." He said as he got up and smiled wide at her. His happy attitude returning as he imagined himself standing on a big rock carving of the name.

Memory Raven's reply was as monotonous as ever. "We're having a moment here… don't ruin it."

He sat back down, his grin shrinking a bit. But his happiness was still there. With a bit of fear of the thing lurking inside him.

He tried one more name. "Beast… Dude?"

Raven could hear the groan of exasperation from the memory of herself.

'You don't know it Raven… but this thing… this Beast… I have a feeling… it likes you too… and it would do anything to protect you.'

The blinding light appeared again. Tearing Raven away from the memory. Her feet no longer touching any ground anymore. 'His Beast, he said… it… likes me? But… he's supposed to like Terra? How can his Beast like me, when he prefers Terra?' (And just how long is she going to stay in denial for anyways! Gosh, you think an empath, experiencing his emotions and thoughts first hand would figure it out!)

The light that surrounded her faded a little, but still stayed in the background for some reason. She still seemed to be hovering in the air. 'Does this mean that I'm getting close to his mind now?'

But no, something was materializing in front of her. But without a background to it. As it became more clear, she realized she was seeing herself. Only, most of her clothing, along with her cloak, had been torn away. Leaving only enough to cover the bare private parts of her body. Red symbols adorned her body. Even as it became visible, it vanished. But the anger she felt coursing through herself didn't. She felt so much anger, and so much Rage, she wondered if said emoticlone was acting up inside her again.

But when she looked to her left, she was shocked to find an outline of Beast Boy. An angry scowl adorning his face. Raven realized she must still be in his memories.

His outline disappeared, the anger along with it. Raven looked around herself, preparing for whatever came next. It was her again, celebrating her birthday reluctantly with her friends. He had approached her, asked her if she needed his help with anything. But she had ultimately pushed him away, saying he was to immature to help her. Raven felt such sadness emanating from him, and Raven saw she had hurt him deeply with her words.

She saw the times she had talked to Robin about her problem in private. She had only talked to him about it since she had only trusted him with the information about demons. Now that Slade had the power of one. She had mainly feared that the others would reject her back then. But she had been forced to confide in the only person who knew Slade better than anyone else. Robin.

Apparently, as Raven saw, they hadn't been as private as she had thought. Since she was in Beast Boy's memories at the moment. She'd have to talk to him about this when she got to him.

She was now throwing Slade around in a brightened version of the temple. Telling him to send a message to her father. How he was staring at her in awe, even though he already knew the full truth about her from the times he had been eavesdropping on her.

It changed, she was now standing in the room the Titans made for her, to protect her from her father. How just as everyone else left, Beast Boy ran up to her, giving her a penny. She couldn't hear his voice, but she knew what he had said to her that day. 'For Luck.'

It was replaced again, this time, she saw him in a bright background. Fighting off hordes of her father's fire demons. She had already seen it once when he saved her from Adonis, but she found herself in awe watching how agile and powerful it was. She kept on hearing two thoughts repeat inside his primal mind. 'I have to protect her… I can't let them take her away… I HAVE TO PROTECT HER!'

The fight vanished, and the bright light finally faded away completely as her feet hit ground at last.

Raven found herself standing on a cold, hard, concrete surface. She looked up, and saw herself in the middle of becoming the portal. She knew where she was now. She was in the temple of Scath. And she was allowing her father to enter the world.

She looked to her left, and saw the Titans, standing behind her own mental shield.

Robin was holding Starfire to him, comforting her with his embrace. Cyborg was still trying to break the shield with his own metallic body. Refusing to just let his little sister go without a fight.

And Beast Boy was standing there. Looking up at the area where she was disappearing. She felt something emanating from off him, something similar he had felt after Terra had betrayed them.

And when the memory of Raven dropped the penny and disappeared completely into the portal, the feelings Raven had going through her left her in tears. Shocking Raven with the intensity of it as she grabbed at her chest and felt hot tears running down her eyes.

The bright light came, taking her away from the scene she had just witnessed. She knew her friends had taken it hard, but to feel what she had felt from him… it had been too much for her to even bear. 'Why?! He likes Terra! Why would he be so sad to see me go! I do nothing but mistreat him and make fun of him every chance I get! Why the hell should he care so much about me! A half demon who killed everyone in the world!'

She heard Knowledge speak in her mind. 'Maybe… and this is just a guess Raven… maybe he did like you back then.'

'No, there's no possible way! I would know it if he truly liked me or not! And I know for sure that he liked her… still does actually! Every memory of him, I have felt that he was attracted to her!'

Before she could think of anything else to say to her Knowledge, Raven felt a large wave of jealousy pulse it's way through her. She opened her eyes again, and realized she was in another memory. The sky was a clear blue now, not blood red as she'd thought since she had just became the portal in his memory.

She looked down, and saw the hug she was giving to Robin. "Somebody believed." She heard herself say.

She still felt the jealousy emanating from somewhere, and looked around herself until she saw Beast Boy. Staring at the short hug with a slightly angry look that he was trying to hide. But now, she could feel the emotions that were emanating from off him.

He was jealous, extremely to be exact. A brief thought went into her mind when she saw the black robin earlier in his mind. A sudden realization went through her.

'He was jealous of Robin! Because I chose to thank only him for believing I could fight my destiny. Does that mean Beast Boy really could have… liked me?'

She heard several voices reply in her mind. 'It's about damn time! Even we recognized it way before you! Beastie Boo likes us!' Were among some of the many different replies she was getting inside her mind.

She got slightly upset at some of them. 'And why the hell didn't you think of telling me!'

A brief pause came inside her mind as everyone silenced themselves. Knowledge was the one who ended up replying for them all. 'Let's just say you gave your denial a little too much power over the years and looking at these memories finally weakened it to the point where we could tell you. Much like when you finally realized you liked him after you thought you'd killed him.'

Raven became confused. She wasn't paying any attention to the memories in front of her anymore. Even though she felt happiness coursing through her at the moment. She was trying to deal with a crisis inside her mind at the moment. 'Are you saying, that I've liked him… for a long time... and I didn't even know it!'

Another brief pause came inside her mind as Knowledge was trying to find the best way to tell her without her going into shock. 'Raven, do you remember the first memory you saw? When he got you to smile?'

Raven thought on it. Suddenly, realizing what she had meant, her eyes widened in shock. 'How could I have possibly liked him for that long! I didn't even know him then!'

Knowledge was quick to reply. 'I didn't mean that you 'liked' liked him immediately after you met him. I'm just saying. You knew the risk of what smiling, much less, chuckling at a joke, could do to your powers back then.'

Raven became puzzled at the emoticlone's notion. 'Yeah… so why should that matter?'

'If doing that could have, let's say, ended the world as we knew it. Or leveled Jump City at the least. Why did you do it for him, despite the risk?'

Raven was about to reply again when her thought process stopped. She couldn't even think of an answer. Raven wanted to reply, at least in some way, but then she noticed she was in the process of being moved to a new memory again. She had missed out on the rest of what had happened. She was about to shrug it off and continue the conversation inside her mind. When she noticed the lighting that moved her looked to be… off.

It wasn't as bright to her anymore. And at the edges, she could see a small bit of darkness. 'I'll give you an answer later, but right now we need to get to Beast Boy before it's too late. Azar only knows how long I have until his mind is disconnected.'

With that, she focused away from her own mind. And instead looked to see what was to come. Beast Boy hopefully being somewhere ahead.

Back in the middle of Beast Boy's mind, all the emoticlones were gathered around his body. Knowledge, Love, Happy, Timid, and Jealousy just to name a few. They looked to be in a deep discussion with themselves.

"What do you mean, nobody could find him!? We've covered every square inch of his mind from the Arctic Circle to the deep trenches of the ocean! And nobody still hasn't seen him!" Anger yelled at the group. His uniform color an almost blood red on his green skin. Making him look like Valentine's Day met Christmas on a bad day.

Knowledge calmly replied. Not wanting to anger Anger any further. Since one of his morphs was one of Garfield's most powerful forms as he liked to boast. "Getting angry at failure will not help us to find success in our goal, Anger."

Anger harrumphed and turned himself around. Effectively saying he didn't want to take part in the conversation anymore.

Knowledge sighed to himself. "Okay, let's look at what we do know. We've searched high and low for this thing. We don't really have many options as to his location at this point. Yet this thing doesn't really like to hide itself. So maybe we're missing something here."

The emoticlones, excluding Anger, stopped talking and thought to themselves. He hadn't been in the jungle, the ocean, the mountains, the Savannah, or anywhere really for that matter.

As they all thought on ir, they realized the last time they'd seen it was before Garfield had entered his coma like state. "M-Maybe he isn't out t-there h-hiding." Timid finally spoke up.

Rude let out a nice loud belch. "Well, if that demon bastard isn't out there hiding from us, where do you think he could possibly be?"

Knowledge was about to reply, when he noticed something. It was supposed to only be afternoon now, yet it seemed like the sun light was already fading. He morphed into an eagle and flew up above the canopy, only to be met with quite a shock that made him let out a shrill cry.

Slowly, but surely, the sun was going out up above in the sky. In the distance, the ocean was starting to freeze over. And the jungle bordering it was starting to freeze and die. And he couldn't even describe what was happening to all the other biomes in Garfield's mind.

Some of the other emoticlones gathered up above with him. Equally as shocked as to what they were witnessing. A cry came down from below, sending all the emoticlone animorphs back to the ground in a hurry.

The emoticlones that had stayed behind had gathered around Beast Boy. Shocked at what they were seeing. Knowledge still couldn't see him, and had to push a few out of the way.

Beast Boy's green skin was slowly starting to lose it's color. Looking more like a pale green now. His uniform color was also changing. From his typical colors to a dark black and gray. And a second pair of sits was starting to appear on his forehead.

Knowledge tried to say something. But by then, all the others knew where their hidden enemy had been. Right under there very noses the whole time. Garfield wasn't only in a coma, he was being taken over. And as they watched the slow transformation, one of them finally realized something else.

"Raven!" Love shouted.

She was still inside. And who knew what could happen with his demon in control in there.

Author's Notes:

Sorry for the wait on this long update. Had to revisit a couple Episodes to make the scenes here just right. Other than that, I hope you liked it. And I decided that this chapter would have two parts to it. Although I'm naming the second chapter something completely different.

In other news, I wrote a short story, and updated my other multi-chapter story at long last! I actually have the next chapter for it halfway done on my Drive, so it should be out by the end of the week! Also, I get to go to the Caribbean next week for Spring Break. So I'm hoping to get it updated before that. I promise to work on both stories while I'm over there as well.

Finally, I hope people aren't to confused with this chapter. But if you have any questions on it, leave me a review or PM me and I'll answer you. Remember the poll question up top as well. I want to see just how many people know their canon pairing, and which one they like best.

And I'm just wondering this. When is BBXRAE week? I want to have some writing ready for it when it comes.

Till Next Time
