Chapter 6
Beast Boy’s POV
cccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc cccccccccccccccccccccccc
I wake up with a huge headache. I feel very cold. I am unsure of where I am at first, but then I figure out I’m in some basement. There are tables, chairs, bookcases and all sorts of things like a normal basement would have. I realize I’m chained to a stone wall and wires are wrapped around my body. I try to pull my wrists out of the cuffs, but end up making them bleed.
I remember I was sleeping in my room. I was trying everything in my power to keep myself from feeling the emotional pain. I remember hearing my window break. I remember fighting a masked figure, but kept losing. I guess I kept losing, because I was so emotionally tired. The last thing I do remember is being injected with something.
I close my eyes, my heart racing. I can’t help but wonder why I had to be the one who got kidnapped. On the other hand, better me than anybody else, but you would think Starfire would be the target, because she’s the closest to Robin.. I feel tears clinging to my eyes as I realize I’ll probably die here. I know the others aren’t going to rescue me. Raven, maybe, but how long could she last against the kidnapper if even I couldn’t protect myself?
Maybe it’s better off this way I think to myself. I will die not breaking my promise to Raven, and the others can be relieved from the burden I put upon them.
No! A part of me rebels. Raven wouldn’t want me to give up. She’d want me to fight.
“I’ve got to get out of here.” I mutter out loud, my hands desperately struggling against the chains. I try to turn into a gorilla so I can break it, but nothing happens. Sweat starts to drip down my face.
“Don’t even bother trying to use your powers. As long as those wires are wrapped around you, you are powerless.”
I recognize that voice almost immediately. “Slade! I’m sorry to disappoint you, but you’ve got the wrong Titan. And if you’re using me as bait, t hat won’t work either, because nobody’s going to come and rescue me.”
Slade chuckles in a way that makes my insides turn. He comes into view. “Oh, don’t worry, Beast Boy. I’ve got the right Titan.”
My eyes narrow. “What do you want with me?”
Slade stands right in front of me. I feel very nervous. This is not good.
“I’ve come to offer you a chance of a lifetime. I know how you’re feeling right now. Alone, hurt, rejected. I know what you’re friends are doing to you. I know how much pain they are causing you. I can help mend that wound. I can make you feel accepted again. Join me and all your worries will be long gone.”
A lot of things are going in my mind. I can feel a part of me longing to be accepted again, longing for the pain to go away. But I know I’d hurt Raven if I do. And that’s the last thing I ever want to do. I’d rather die than hurt anybody, much less my Raven. “Never” I whisper.
“What was that?” Slade asks in a sinister voice. “I didn’t catch that.”
“NEVER! I’ll never join you!” I shout furiously.
“Poor choice, though it doesn’t surprise me. Maybe this will change your mind.” he says pushing a button in his hand. Almost instantly, I feel electricity enter my body from the wires wrapped around my body. It feels like my body is completely on fire. I close my eyes and grit my teeth to keep myself from screaming. All I know is I will not give in to Slade, even if it means my death. The Titans would be better off anyway. Tears start running down my cheeks as the pain gets more and more excruciating. I love you, Raven I think to myself as I feel myself slip out of consciousness.

Raven’s POV
nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn nnnnn
When my eyes open again, I find myself on the couch in the living room. I notice a pair of green eyes staring at me. At first I think their Beast Boy’s, but then realize that their Starfire’s instead. I suddenly remember what happened to Beast Boy. How he was pulled out of the window. I need to help him. I sit up suddenly. “Beast Boy.”
“Don’t worry, he won’t hurt you anymore. Robin’s going to tell him to leave and-.”
“HE DIDN’T HURT ME!!!” I shriek, making all the windows explode. I’m too scared and furious to care. I can feel the red eyes about to glow, but I manage to keep that from happening.
“But we found you in his room unconscious.” Robin says, standing in front of me.
I’m shaking with anger, making the lamps explode. Again, I don’t care. “HE DIDN’T DO IT!! HE’S BEEN KIDNAPPED!! I WAS ATTACKED FROM BEHIND!! WE HAVE TO SAVE HIM!!”
The others look at each other, clearly still not believing me. I see slight doubt in Starfire’s eyes, and the uneasiness on Cyborg’s face. But I can’t deal with that right now. I stand up, ignoring the puzzled faces around me. Dizziness sweeps over me, but I ignore it. I glare at the rest of the team. “Fine. Don’t believe me! I’ll go and find him myself. And when I do, we aren’t coming back.” I turn into a raven and leave the T-tower, the anger still present inside me.
I turn back into myself and fly across Jump City, hoping to find a clue of where he could be.

Starfire’s POV
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
As soon as Raven leaves, I feel tears running down my cheeks. I cover my face with my hands and run to my room. I flop on my bed and hold Silkie close to me. I can’t get the image of Raven lying unconscious in Beast Boy’s room out of my head. The others think she’s gone crazy, but I feel unsure. As I hold Silkie close to me, I realize that Beast Boy had given him to me. I want to believe that Beast Boy didn’t hurt Raven, but Robin says he shouldn’t be trusted. I feel so confused.
I decide to go and look around Beast Boy’s room to see if maybe there’s a clue on what’s going on.
When I get there, I realize how clean it is. I notice a big pile with a sign next to it, my name written on it. I pick it up and realize it’s not a sign, but a letter. I open it up to read what it says.
Dear Starfire,
By the time you find this letter, you guys would have already discovered my body. I’m so sorry I have to put you through this by taking my life, but it’s something I have to do. I’m so sorry about the prank I pulled. I know I’ve apologized several times before, but I want to say it one more time, because I really do mean it, and it’s something you need to know before I go. I’m so sorry about the way I acted before I took the antidote. I never meant to fight you, Cyborg, or Robin, but I had no control. If I did, I would never have. The guilt is tearing me apart, and I can’t live with it anymore. I’m sorry about everything. I’m going to miss you so much, for you were always the one who would laugh at my jokes. I’m going to miss you because you were always so kind and caring towards me. Take care of yourself.
Your friend always,
Garfield “Beast Boy” Logan
P.S. Tell Robin you love him. He feels the sane way
Tears are running down my cheeks faster than ever. I’m not sure at first what he meant by ‘discovering his body’ but I figure it out when I read the part ‘taking my life’. I remember Raven had told me that he almost killed himself the night we went to the carnival. This must have been when he wrote the note. I look on the ground and see bullets, but no gun.
I feel disgusted with myself. Why didn’t I ask if he was okay? Why didn’t I try to talk to him, even though Robin told me not to? I sob quietly. I get up and almost leave when something else catches my eye by the window. Beast Boy’s communicator. I pick it up and examine it. I see traces of blood. I may seem naive to most things, but when I see blood, I know something is not right. I touch the blood stain and realize it’s fresh. I don’t know whose blood it is, but I have to find out.
I fly out of the room as quickly as I can. I enter back in the living room, hoping the others are still there. Luckily they are. Robin is looking out the window, Cyborg sitting on the couch, staring into space. I stand in front of Cyborg, not wanting to waste any time.
“Friend, Cyborg...I’ve found Beast Boy’s communicator with something on it. I think it’s a clue to what’s going on. I-I found blood.”
“Probably BB’s weapon of choice.” I hear Robin mutter darkly. I ignore him, my heart pounding.
Cyborg looks back at me uneasily. He looks like he’s trying to decide whether to help or not. I place my hand on his robotic arm. “Would you just test it please?” I say quietly, the tears still present in my eyes.
Cyborg nods mutely, opening his mechanical arm and scans the communicator. His human eye widens. “There are two bloodstains. One is BB’s. The other is one of Slade’s henchmen.”
“What does that mean?” I ask in confusion.
Cyborg looks at me, his face pale. “It means BB’s has been taken by Slade. Raven was right. She must have caught them try and take him, and they didn’t want any witnesses.”
I gasp. “We must save him!!”
Cyborg nods mutely in agreement. Robin however, doesn’t comment. I look over at him. He doesn’t look concerned at all. “He’ll be fine. He’s capable of saving himself.”
I feel anger build inside me. “Robin! How can he be capable to save himself when he’s against Slade? You know how ruthless Slade is! Can’t we just forgive him, please? He deserves another chance.”
I move in beside Robin and take one of his gloved hands into my own. “You not forgiving Beast Boy for that one thing is like me not forgiving you for hurting me (Eps. Haunted). Please, friend. Just trust me. We need to save him.”
I see Robin’s face soften slightly. “Okay Star,” he says quietly. “But I’m doing this only because you want me to. Let’s go rescue Beast Boy.”
