Vindicated

Chapter 13

 

 

“Hello Beast Boy, remember me?”

 

He said those words like he was some cheap villain form a cheesy B movie. I stared blankly at him. I'm not ready to take him on alone, plus Em was standing there. I knew the other Titans wouldn't have used her as a hostage, but this guy is a killer. He wouldn't hesitate to do it in an instant. I have to get her out of here. I won't be able to defend her in my condition.

 

“You look a bit beat up my friend, how do you plan to take me down looking like that?” He laughed at me in the normal cartoonish villain fashion. It only served only to anger me more. What? Did he think I was just some kid playing games? Lives were on the line and he was only fooling around.

 

I could see Star and the other laying on the ground. If I didn't beat this guy on my own, their lives would certainly be ended. A cool breeze blew in from the bay and awoke me from my fear. I took a few steps toward my enemy in hopes to see him back up. If did then I knew that he had doubt about his own abilities and could therefore be defeated. He just stood there mocking me with those eyes peering down his upturned nose.

 

“Why do you rush to your death like that Beast Boy? I know that you will die soon but it isn't necessary for you to tempt me like this. I would very much like to catch up. It has been to long. What, don't you remember me? I'm very hurt. It must be my new look.”

 

I look him over again, but I can't ever recall meeting him before. The grin is familiar, but it's the same grin that every villain I have ever met has had. That grin that denotes superiority and over confidence.

 

“I know that Em has met me before.”

 

It hits me like a freight train moving at the speed of light. How could Em and I both know the same people? Other then the Titans, we haven't met anybody new. I look over at Em in horror as she walks slowly over to him. Oh, no! Does this mean what I think this means?

 

“I can see that you have figured out that there is a connection between your beloved Em and I. Well maybe I should tell you the story before I take your lives. It would be nice to see the look on your pitiful face.”

 

Em turns her head to look at me and she gives me a look of terror. I don't understand, if Em is connected to him and walking towards him, why is she acting so afraid? The look in her eyes infuriates me. I'm not sure if I was mad at him or at Em, but I charged at that freak anyway. The bastard is trying to take all that I care about away from me and I won't let him. I don't get far; a huge load of goo is launched my way and forces me to the ground. He makes me watch as Em walks towards him and stands by his side. He wraps his arm around her and holds her very close.

 

“If you don't like me putting my arm around her, you are really gonna hate what I'm going to do next.”

 

He proceeds to slowly wrap himself around her, but it's different from when he fought me. It wasn't like he was wrapping around her, so much as he was becoming one with her. She looked in my eyes and let out a single tear and mouthed “I love you” before she started to scream in excruciating pain. The screams are so severe that they send shivers down my spine and I begin to feel sharp pains running throughout my body. I can't explain why, but I was feeling what she was feeling. I looked over at her and that bastard had almost completely absorbed her. After he had completely taken her in, he began to explain to me what had just transpired.

 

“So, have you guessed who I am yet? I'm not surprised. You have never actually seen me looking like this before. Think of my power. Doesn't it seem familiar?” I run over all of his powers that I remember in my head and I soon realize what I'm dealing with. “That's right old friend. I'm back, Plasmus. After Slade fused me with Overload and Cinderblock, I began to regain some of my cognitive functions that were normally lost during my Plasmus personality. I decided to go to a new town in order to test my new skills. I chose Gotham City and there I met someone named Clayface. He had skills much like mine and taught me how to face shift in order to look like someone else. Soon, he explained how to separate part of my own body in order to create a whole other entity that could operate according to my will. That is where Em came from. She was never even real, just someone that I created to break you Titans apart and you against each other. Her original assignment was to fall in love with Robin and seduce him out of the tower. But you worked out even better. I have to say that I thought that you were the weakest of the Titans, but when you put your mind to it you actually defeated all of the others in a little amount of time. I'm afraid for you old friend that I will not be so easy.”

 

I cried. Tears sprayed from my eyes and burned. I screamed from an unending amount of pain. The anger froze in my heart and I will never allow him to live after this. I have never killed before, but this is the end. I won't make it through this with a fire burning in my chest like it used to. Now I have to become ice itself to take the bastard down.

 

“What, no comment on me killing the only ones you love. I have to say I was looking forward to that.”

 

I looked up at Plasmus from my position under his goo and growled out visioucsly, “Bring her back.”

 

“I'm afraid it doesn't work like that kid. Not that I would want to anyway.”

 

“BRING HER BACK!!!!”

 

I change into a brontosaurus and shake off the now seemingly miniscule goo. I then changed back into my human form and charged at Plasmus. I didn't know if I could beat him; I didn't know anything other then rage at that moment. I changed into animal after animal using their unidue attributes to roll into attacks at dodging. Plasmus's skills were very much like my own when it comes to hand to hand combat. We both can manipulate our own bodies to attack and dodge. I manage to get out of his attacks by transforming into small yet fast creatures like mice, and then counter by transforming into large beasts like elephants. No one seemed to make any headway. I almost wish that Aqualad were here so that I could usr his abilities at controlling water and Plasmus would be down. There will be no way I can win this fight at this rate.

 

I have already used a lot of energy fighting the Titans and he is coming in fresh. I suddenly try our my new ability and manipulate different cells to alter the DNA strands into separate animal types. I was capable of accomplishing much more this way and I even managed to keep it up for a while. I had Plasmus reeling from the attacks and slowly worked him toward the edge of the pier, if I could move him into the water he'll be a dead man. He tripped up though, and I charged into him with enough force to throw him into the water. With him floating in the water he would be unable to access his abilities and would fall unconscious reverting to his human form. I turned and walked away. I wasn't even going to bother trying to fish him out of the bay. Let the bastard die.

 

“I told you that I had learned new abilities and you still under estimate me.”

 

He rose out of the water; I was out of ideas. If I can't take him out that way there will be no way of me beating him in a one on one situation. He would just anihalate me. He slowly crept toward me. The water was having some effect on him because he was having trouble keeping his body shape. He slid on the ground like the slime he was. I thought of Em. If I had to die today, it would be with her in my heart.

 

Suddenly, he leapt at me and started to pound on me from all directions. The beating I took was excrutiating. I doubt that even if the real Titans were fighting along side that he would be beatable. I only hope that one day he will get what he deserves. I wonder if Em will be in the afterlife waiting for me. I wonder if there is an afterlife. I wonder if my sweet Em even had a soul. She has to. How could she fall in love without one. I cry again. In a low voice I say, “bring her back, bring her back… please.”

 

The attacks stop and I look up to see Plasmus's face staring at me in a half shock half explosive joy face. “What did you say? Did you say please? Are you begging?” He grinned and began to laugh at me and my pain. I start to cry uncontrollably and I close my eyes. I don't even feel the legendary beating that I am getting from him. I can't believe that I am going to die like this. All alone.

 

I scream, but no noise comes out of my throat. But to me, the noise is deafening. It forces me to forget what was actually happening. I hear a faint noise slowly growing above the scream. It gets louder and louder. I can slowly make out that they are words. It was Em. She was giving me comforting words and letting me know how much she loved me. It was as if I died and gone to heaven. Her words gave me strength and washed away my fears of death. I opened my eyes to see Plasmus standing over me beating the living crap out of me. I can feel the internal bleeding start to kick in and I smile.

 

Out of no where, Plasmus screams as if he were being attacked. I look around to see if anyone had arrived, but there was no one else here except the unconscious Titans. But still, Plasmus screamed, was he being hit by an unseen force, a righteous fury that knew that he deserved to die. I remember where I am and what time it is. This was going to be the end. If the Titans and Plasmus had not shown up, this is when Em was supposed to die from my disease. It wasn't me that was killing him, it was Em. She was fighting for me. I smiled as I watched him roll around in agony. He started to laugh.

 

“What did you… do to me?”

 

“Em had a disease, it was fatal. She was supposed to die right now and you will die in her stead. You fool. If you had only left us alone, this would not have happened.” I smile after rubbing it in a little more and I watch him die. While I stand there I know that any chance of ever seeing Em again was dieing with him, but that is what she wants as well. Goodbye sweet heart, goodbye.

 

I watch, bleeding cold ice blood. I smile more with every bit of agony that he is going through. He tries to regain his composure and try another attack, but he simply liquefies whatever part he tries to extend. He falls unconscious and transforms back into a human. When he awakes the next time, the virus will already have hold of his system and he will not survive the encounter. I don't give him the chance. I reach down and pick up one of Robin's escrima sticks that is laying by my feet. I walk over to him and start to beat him. All over his body I can hear bones breaking and organs tearing. I smile and bite my lower lip until it bleeds. The taste of blood sooths me and makes it easier to continue. I make my way up to his head. By th time I am finished, there is nothing left of that mug he called a face. I could see his brains splattered all over the wood that makes up the pier.

 

I stand up and spit on the remains of that bastard. I grab an incendiary out of Robin's utility belt and set fire to his body. I never want to even hear about him again. I walk over to the sleeping bodies of the Titans and gather them up. They are muc h lighter than I thought. I turn into a giant falcon and gently grip them in my razor sharp talons. Flying toward the tower I can feel the breeze in my face coming in from the bay. It feels good.
