I’ll Be
Chapter 5
Raven’s POV
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
I have one more Titan to go, but I’m afraid to face him. Robin is definitely the kind who would hold grudges. I mean, look at his obsession with Slade. I know later Beast Boy will ask what the others said, but I’m afraid to tell him. I know that what I tell him could possibly make him feel worse. I enter the main room, finding that Beast Boy is no longer there. My heart pounding, I concentrate and with my powers and figure out he’s in his room, fast asleep. I can see his pain filled face as he sleeps on. My heart grows heavy for the pain he has to endure. I love him more than ever.
I sit on the couch and bury my head in my hands, tears still running down my face. My heart is pounding with anxiety and pain. Anxiety of wondering what to tell him, and pain for all the things the others have against him. Them hating him is like hating me, because he’s a part of me.
“Raven?”
I look up to find Robin staring at me. “Why are you crying?”
“You wouldn’t understand.”
“Why do you say that?” Robin asks, sitting next to me.
“Because the others didn’t.”
“Try me.”
I sigh in defeat. “They refuse to forgive Beast Boy.”
Silence.
I look at Robin’s face. “You won’t forgive him either?” I ask in pain.
“What makes you think I would?”
I am horrified by his comment, but choose to ignore it. “How could you threaten to put Beast Boy in jail for something that he didn’t do?!” I ask in fury.
“He refused to tell us what really happened. Instead he’d rather hide it. I mean, come one, “claws, a scream” that means he knew something. As far as I’m concerned, he should have been punished.”
“What for? For saving my life?” I feel the anger build up again.
“For turning against us. He fought us. And think about it, he almost killed you!”
“For the hundredth millionth time, HE DIDN’T HURT ME!! He didn’t turn against us. He didn’t try to on his free will! He had no control when the Beast took over him. And because of the affects of the chemicals, he couldn’t remember anything either. Besides, did we threaten to put you in jail when you became Slade’s apprentice? Or what about Red X? No! We stuck by your side, and gave you another chance. Doesn’t Beast Boy deserve another chance?”
Robin looks away as if he is thinking about it. “No. Not the way he talked back to me. He said that was who he is now. He’s not the Beast Boy we used to know. As far as I’m concerned, the old Beast Boy we used to know is dead.”
I feel like he had just slapped me. I try yet again to defend him. “Of course he’s the same old Beast Boy we know. You’re just not willing to take the time to realize that. Besides he only acted that way that one night when he was affected by the chemicals. He took the damn antidote, Robin! He’s all better! You didn’t even bother to ask whether his was okay. You’d rather attack your own friend! Well, if you still refuse to give him another chance, then realize you will soon be short two teammates! You need him, whether you realize it or not! And if you don’t forgive him, I will never forgive you!”
I get up and head to my room. I really need to meditate. I slam my door shut and enter Nevermore. I really need to talk with my emotions. I land in Nevermore with my heart pounding. I hurry around, gathering emotions as I pass them. I really need help. After ten minutes, we’re ready to start a counsel.
“Thanks for waking me up.” Rude says rudely. I ignore her.
“I need your help.” I say quickly. “I feel so confused. Wait, where’s Love?”
The others look at each other. “She hasn’t left her room since you found BB with the gun.” Knowledge says.
“Why do they hate Beast Boy so much? I love him!” Timid says in a quiet voice.
“Maybe because they’re afraid to trust him again.” Knowledge says, cleaning off her glasses.
“But he never hurt us!” Rage says in fury. “It’s all stupid Adonis’s fault!”
“I know that.” Knowledge argues back. I try to say something else, but I get interrupted by another one of my emotions.
“Why are they doing this to him?” Happy asks, her smile disappearing. The other emotions nod in agreement.
“I don’t-.”
I hold up my hand to stop Brave from jumping in. “You all know why they hate him. You heard what the others said. They are being stupid. I just need to know what I should tell Beast Boy. I know he’s going to ask what the others said, but I don’t want to break his heart.”
“The truth.” Knowledge says immediately.
“But the truth would hurt him.” Timid says quietly. “We don’t want to cause him even more pain.”
“Keeping it from him would hurt him even more.” Knowledge says wisely.
The counsel falls quiet. The rest of the emotions nod in agreement. “So it’s settled.”I say to them. “I will tell him the truth if he asks for it. Try and talk to Love. Tell her everything will be okay.”
I leave Nevermore, and slowly walk to Beast Boy’s room, bracing myself for his surely to be endless questioning. I am about to knock on the door when I hear sounds of scuffling. I blow away the door with my powers. To my horror I see a masked figure standing in the middle of the room, Beast Boy across his shoulder. It looks like Beast Boy has been knocked out cold. “Beast Boy!” I cry.
I am about to use my powers when something heavy hits me in the head. The last thing I remember is seeing Beast Boy’s communicator fall to the ground as he’s carried out the window.
