A/N: I will begin this note as an apology. Please forgive me dear readers, that this chapter is terrible late. It was really hard to write the battle. But on that note things have finally started to happen. The inciting Incident will be in this chapter. The next chapter will be a result of how everyone feels about this chapter (and maybe a little forgetfulness) but most likely next chapter will be really a short.

3 Days Later

"BB you're gonna eat my dust!" Cyborg shouted at Beast Boy, his little brother.

"Not today tin man!" Beast Boy retorted. Of all the things he did in his mask, hanging out with Cyborg was one of the things he actually loved to do. It reminded him that he was still a kid and it also reminded him that the mask wasn't just for him; it was for his friends too. Beast Boy let Cyborg's screen car pass him. It was part of the mask to lose but he really did enjoy seeing Cyborg's playful smirk when he won.

"Booyah!" Cyborg screamed his usual victory chant.
"Dude you cheated plus this is a stupid game!" Beast Boy whined. He didn't see Raven's eyebrows rise up in surprise.

"Don't hate the game, hate the player. Best two out of three?" Cyborg said with a smug smirk.

"Oh yeah!" Crime had been slow and the only thing that worried Beast Boy was Slade making a surprise appearance again (Things Change episode). But besides that it was a day for free time for the Titans. Raven was reading a collection of stories from Edgar Allen Poe, Robin was in the kitchen with Starfire teaching each other how to cook (mostly Robin teaching Star), and Cyborg and Beast Boy playing video games.

Beast Boy didn't really want to play video games though. He had a really rough night. He had another memory dream, but this one was about Dr. Lucas and Galtry (they were putting some drug in him that made his mind produce some pain receptors making him feel excruciating pain till he woke up (I did borrow this idea for the drug from this week's recent episode of Arrow. The drug was called Vertigo.)). The dream caused the Beast to come out and it tore his room apart. Beast Boy didn't really mind that the Beast trashed his room, as long as he stayed there he didn't have the chance to hurt anyone else (him and the Beast come upon some mutual agreement somehow like it was a part of him). But when Beast Boy woke up- around 3 A.M.- he had to clean the mess as quietly as he could- which lasted till about 9 A.M. Leaving him no time to get a little more sleep, but he felt if he went back to sleep he might have another memory dream. He was so caught up about last night, that he didn't realize that he forgot to let Cyborg win.

"What the heck happened?! How did you do that?!" Cyborg screamed dragging Beast Boy out of his thoughts.

"Do what?" Beast Boy asked in confusion. Cyborg looked like he was going to have a foaming seizure.

"Y-Y-Y-YOU….. WON!" Cyborg screamed as he pointed at the T.V. Beast Boy looked at the screen which showed his car doing a victory lap. When he looked around everyone was either looking at him or at the screen, even Raven took a peak from her book.

"Oh yeah, I guess I did," Beast Boy said nonchalantly. Winning didn't seem unusual to him. It was weirder to him if someone lost all the time. Everyone was now staring at Beast Boy like they expected him to explode or something. Then he remembered that his mask would be jumping for joy and bragging around like a king. But he didn't feel like doing that so he did the next Beast Boyish thing (that he enjoyed as well) – mess with Raven.

"Hey Rae, wanna learn how to play with the master?" Beast Boy asked while he wiggled his eyebrows. The egotistical comment and gesture would annoy Raven just enough to distract her (and maybe the rest of the team) enough to stop staring at him or the T.V. in mock awe.

"It's Raven not Rae and no," Raven said with her monotone voice (with a hint of seriousness in it). He loved her voice and it had been 3 days since he heard her voice say more than 1 or 2 words to him. He figured she was still mad about their conversation in Tokyo. No one else noticed because he always made her angry but he needed to hear her voice, it kept his mask and him sane. So he thought he could make things normal by getting her more riled up.

"Oh come on Rae…ven, it'll be fun. This is an American classic. It helps teenagers express them selves with virtual adrenaline and cars! Right Cyborg?" Beast Boy lectured enthusiastically. He twirled around with the game in his hands and fake crying in awe (like in the cartoon).

"I'm not in this man," Cyborg said with his arms in the surrendering gesture.

"It doesn't matter what Cyborg or America says I'm still not playing your stupid game," Raven said with a growl. Beast Boy smiled at this. She was showing him emotion and he loved it (even if it was negative). He wanted to continue their little argument till she threw him out of the window.

"His opinion doesn't even count because he's the loser!" Cyborg glared at Beast Boy.

"BB I don't think-"Cyborg tried to warn Beast Boy because he saw Raven's (and his) anger rising, but he kept talking.

"Come on Raven! Let go of the gloom and doom act and play with us! I bet it would be better than dreary Edgar Allan Poe," Beast Boy said as convincingly as his mask could (which meant wiggled eyebrows). Then he realized that he showed another flaw in his mask- he was talking about Raven's book like he noticed it when he really never did. Raven's eyes flashed with surprise but then they were filled with rage.

"Beast Boy, I said no. I don't want to play your stupid game! I don't even want to spend time with you! You are just as stupid, pathetic, deceiving, and idiotic as that game! So just, LEAVE. ME. ALONE!" Raven yelled with fury. Everyone now stared at her in shock, except for Beast Boy. He had his head down like a dog being reprimanded. He flinched at every word she screamed at him, like she punched or slapped him in the face. But he knew every word she said was true; the only thing was that he worse than a game. He could see the recognition of what she just said pass her mind. She was about to apologize but he wouldn't let her because she was right.

"Jeez Raven, if you wanted me to leave you alone all you had to do was ask." Beast Boy lifted his head and put a smile back on his face. His mask could hide the pain and fear he really had at that moment. "Plus I'm done anyway. I need a book from the comic book store." Beast Boy turned around, put the controller on the couch, and headed for the door. He could see everyone's taken aback faces but he didn't care. He was hurt, scared, and angry. He needed to go to a forest to release some tension. The beast might come out so he didn't want to do it in the tower (especially since Raven was in the tower). He was almost at the door when the alarm sounded.

"Titans Trouble!" Robin yelled, taking himself and the others out of their stupors.

Fighting crime helped Beast Boy released some anger. So Mumbo was right on time for doing something stupid. Plus Mumbo would distract everyone from this morning's events. He was robbing the bank downtown. Robin was going over the battle plan with the team as Beast Boy flew. Beast Boy would secure the citizens, while Cyborg and Starfire would fight off any side distractions, and Robin and Raven would take care of Mumbo.

"But if any of you guys can, get Mumbo's wand!" Robin ordered before they hit the scene. Mumbo was making pipes fend off the cops and was about to do the same to their cars. "Show's over Mumbo," Robin smirked as he threw an exploding bird-a-rang at Mumbo. It didn't hurt Mumbo but it did distract him from the cops.

"Well, Well, if it isn't the Teen Troublemakers! Sorry kiddos this is my show!" Mumbo made the cop cars alive but they came after the Titans.

"Titans Go!" Robin yelled his famous battle cry and the rest of the Titans went into battle. Beast Boy turned into a rhino smashing the pipes he landed on. He charged at a group trying to get over the police's barricade. Then some pipes tackled him and held him down. He turned to a mouse to escape. As he escaped he saw that the other Titans were occupied with other inmate objects. Starfire was shooting starbolts at mailboxes, Cyborg was fighting the cars with his sonic canon and fist, and Robin was fighting street lamps with his Bo-staff. Raven on the other hand got Mumbo. While Beast Boy got distracted a pipe hit him in the back of the head, bringing him back to his fight. He changed to a gorilla and grabbed the pipe that hit him and swung it at the other pipes. He kept doing that (and smashing other pipes with his hands and feet) until they were all gone. He was about to go help one of the others but then he noticed that Raven was gone. He turned to a wolf and found her scent. He ran to it just to make sure she was all right. Then as he was running he felt vibrations under paws and ran faster. Raven was going to be (or already was) in trouble but he was going to prevent that the best he could. No one will hurt MY Raven!

Raven's POV

Raven's was chasing Mumbo down the street till he turned into an alley way. Raven knew that the others were busy fighting off Mumbo's stupid spells and she was the only one to sneak behind him and catch him. Unfortunately Mumbo took off his hat and a bunch of doves flew into her face. She was distracted enough for him to start running but she was still able to chase after him. They were in an alley way between empty construction of a new building and an empty parking lot. The alley had a dead end.

"It's over Mumbo," Raven stated.

"Oh Raven darling I still have a few tricks up my sleeve!" Mumbo pulled some kind of cheesy bomb clock out of his sleeve. He threw it at Raven but she grabbed it in mid-air and threw it towards the construction. The bomb exploded knocking some bricks over. Raven put a shield over herself but Mumbo wasn't so lucky. A brick fell on him knocking him out. After the bricks stopped falling Raven went to check up on Mumbo. He was knocked out cold.

"Magic comes with a price, idiot," Raven said as she took his wand and lifted him off the ground. She heard a sliding noise that made her look up but she didn't see anything.

"Raven!" Beast Boy called to her from the front of the alley in panic. "Raven we need to go, NOW!" he yelled.

"Well then it could be helpful if you could help me idiot," Rave mumbled. She was still angry about Tokyo and this morning. He was acting like Beast Boy but he wasn't Beast Boy. That irritated her to no end. She stood still as he ran toward her. Then she heard the sliding noise again. Except when she looked up this time metal beams started falling towards her. She was overcome by fear. For a second it seemed that the world slowed down but was coming toward her in immediate death. At that time something pulled her and pushed her out of the way of the falling construction. She landed on the street just as the construction fell to the ground with an earth shaking crash.

"Friend Raven!" Starfire yelled bringing Raven back to reality. Robin, Cyborg, and Star were coming toward her with concern on each of their faces.

"Raven are you ok?" Robin asked in his leader tone.

"Yeah, are you ok and were is BB?" Cyborg asked in panic.

"Oh, friend Raven it is wonderful that you are ok and have succeeded in catching Mumbo!" Starfire said innocently, giving a Raven a bone-crushing hug.

"Starfire," Raven warned.

"Sorry, friend Raven it was just so joyful that you were not harmed," Starfire said apologetically. Raven nodded her head in response.

"Robin I got Mumbo and here's his wand," Raven told Robin who was looking at Cyborg's tracker grid with extreme worry.

"Good I'll give this to the police. Raven look for Beast Boy with Starfire and Cyborg," Robin ordered. Starfire and Raven looked at him questioningly.

"Why would we need to look for friend Beast Boy?"

"What do you mean look for him? He was outside the alley way last time I saw him," Raven said skeptically. She pointed to were he was and looked around. He wasn't around anywhere near the alley.

"Robin go handle the police I got this." Cyborg put a reassuring hand on Robin shoulder. Robin looked up at Cyborg and nodded. He grabbed Mumbo and his wand and took off.

"Okay Cyborg, what's going on?" Raven asked with demand. Cyborg sighed in sorrow. Raven felt worry and panic roll off him in tsunami sized waves.

"Look Raven, Beast Boy's tracker was in the alley right before the crash. Now I can't even find it," Cyborg said sadlly. Both Raven and Starfire gasped. Now Raven remembered that she was pulled and pushed out of the way. Beast Boy must've came in the alley and saved her. This realization caused her emotions to go hay wire but she knew Beast Boy needed her now, so she couldn't freak out now. That will wait till they find him and she heals him.

"Starfire blow the top of the debris off. After that all three of us will get this stuff off of Beast Boy," Raven ordered in a stern voice. Everyone moved after she gave the orders. Cyborg and Raven moved out of Starfire's way as she shot the top of the debris off. Afterward all three of them started to move the construction. It felt like an eternity for Raven. Every second that passed she felt like she was losing Beast Boy. She feared that they would never find him, or that when they did find him he would be dead. What's worse is that she saw the truth but will never know it. Finally she a little bit of pale green among the lifeless grays and browns of the construction. "Guys! I found him!" Raven tried her best to not show the drowning relief that threaten to wash over her in her voice. Cyborg and Starfire were by her in seconds. They lifted the debris off of Beast Boy. What they saw scared all of them. Beast Boy was a mix of purple, black, green, and red, a lot of red. They could see the blood oozing out of his head and body, while most of it just dripped on the stone. His face looked like he had been hit like a baseball with bat (except the bat was a metal 100lb. beam). His body was starting to turn dark blue and black sporadically over his body. His uniform was in shreds and his body almost looked as fragile as glass. The only thought going through Raven's mind as she saw this though was, Oh God, please not yet. Not yet. Not him. Not Beast Boy.
