Pairing: Beastboy/Terra

Author's Notes: Hello everyone. It's Mr. Alaska again. I know you all are wondering why I'm starting another story, even though I have a lot of other stories. Well, the thing is, I decided to take a short break from my Naruto stories. I need a short break from all of the seriousness of ninjas, so I decided to start another Teen Titans story. For all my Naruto friends out there, who are loving my Naruto stories, DO NOT PANIC. I was born into writing, and I will DIE a writer. I will not discontinue any of my Naruto stories… I just need a break from them and work on less serious series. This story was inspired by Niham's Like Fat Kids Love Cake. I hope you all enjoy this new story while I get my head straight. Please leave plenty of reviews. PEACE!

Chapter 1: Unbelievable

"TITANS! GO!" Robin, the leader of the famous Teen Titans cried, as he and his four friends charged at the Hive Five. It started out as a peaceful, sunny afternoon in Jump City, with not a single cloud in the sky. But when the Hive Five decided to rob a bank again, the Titans were called into action. "Don't let them escape!" The Titans chased after the five super villains. The Hive Five consisted on Jinx, Mammoth, Gizmo, See-More and Billy Numerous, all running down the streets of Jump with armfuls of bagged money.

Seeing that the Titans were gaining on them, Jinx turned to her teammates. "Guys! We need to split up!" She announced, after dodging one of Cyborg's arm cannon blasts. "Split up and take on which ever Titan you get!" The boys nodded, and simultaneously bolted in different directions. And just like Jinx hoped, when they separated, the five Titans also split up as well. Robin went after See-More. Starfire went after Jinx. Cyborg went after Gizmo. Raven went after Billy, and Beastboy went after Mammoth.

The scrawny green Titan chased after the humongous villain, when he suddenly thought of something. 'Wait… why the hell am I chasing after him in my REGULAR form?' He thought, mentally kicking himself. Beastboy then turned into a large green tiger, and quickly closed in on the retreating thief. "RRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!" With a mighty roar, Beastboy leapt into the air and landed on Mammoth's back.

But the tiger's sharp claws only dug in a couple of inches of the giant teen's thick skin. Mammoth freaked out at first, and started flailing around wildly to get the man-eating beast off his back. But Beastboy stayed on, his claws hooked into Mammoth's shoulder. This continued for five seconds, when Mammoth finally got tired of flailing. "GGGGRRRRAAA! GET THE HELL OFF!" Dropping the bags of money, Mammoth reached up and grabbed the tiger by the head. "Let's see if ALL cats land on their feet!" He used his immense strength to pry the feline's claws out of his shoulders and back. Then, he threw Beastboy into the air, sending him hurling towards a parked van.

'Oh crud!' Seeing that he was no longer attached to Mammoth's back, Beastboy quickly transformed into a falcon, and managed to use his wings to stop him from slamming against the vehicle. When saved, Beastboy morphed back into his normal form. "Dude, I'm SERIOUSLY not in the mode for this!" The Titan growled, as his left arm morphed into the arm of a bear. "Just leave the money there and surrender… before I turn you into food for the zoo's bear exhibit."

But the larger boy laughed, and turned to a nearby light pole. Grabbing in with one hand, Mammoth ripped the pole out of the ground and wielded it like a oversized baseball bat. "Hehee… come on, Shrimpy. I've always wanted a fur coat… and yeah, I can live with it being green!" Mammoth started stomping towards Beastboy, with the intent to pulverize the smaller Titan. "BATTER UP!" The Hive member pulled back, and swung the heavy pole at Beastboy's head. Morphing into a fly, Beastboy dodged the swing completely. And at first, Mammoth thought he disappeared. But when Mammoth noticed the green fly, it was too late. In the blink on an eye, the small, harmless fly morphed into a ferocious green grizzly bear, standing almost as tall as Mammoth was.

It was Beastboy's turn to fight back. And with a hard swing of his sharp bear claws, Beastboy managed to slash Mammoth across his chest, leaving five claw marks. Blood slowly oozed out of his chest wounds as the larger villain stumbled back, hissing in pain. He dropped the pole and clenched his chest. Mammoth narrowed his eyes at the green bear charging his way, and charged back. "BRING IT ON!" The two collided in the middle of the street. 50 feet away, Jump City High School students had just got out of school, and were watching this fight take place.

Mammoth and Beastboy wrestled back and forth, with Mammoth proving the better fighter. He managed to get behind the green bear, and wrapped his arms around it's waist. And using his strength, Mammoth lifted the Titan into the air, and hurled him into the wall of a nearby building. Amazingly, the weight of Beastboy's bear form and the force of Mammoth's throw didn't seriously damage the building. As the bear fell to the ground and morphed back into Beastboy, all that was left on the wall was a large dent. 'OK… this is getting annoying.' Beastboy thought, as Mammoth charged at him again.

Mammoth raised his fist, determined to punch the Titan through the building wall. But before he got halfway to him, Beastboy morphed into a kangaroo. And in an instant, the green kangaroo pounced forward, now within arms distance from the surprised criminal. Beastboy leapt into the air, and delivered a double kangaroo kick to Mammoth's face. As the Hive member stumbled backwards, clenching his face, the kangaroo instantly morphed into a giant rhinoceros. As blood started dripping from his nose, Mammoth let out a loud groan of anger, only to see a three-ton rhino charging his way.

He didn't even have time to react. Beastboy charged in and rammed into Mammoth, sending him flying through the air and crashing into some dumpsters. Morphing back into his regular self, Beastboy walked up to inspect the motionless criminal. He was relieved to find that mammoth was still breathing… and relieved that he was also unconscious. "Man… my back…" Arching his sore back, Beastboy stumbled backwards and leaned up against a wall, trying to sooth his aching back.

But after a minute of catching his breath, he was about to call in for the team to pick him up, when…. "DUDE! That was awesome!" Beastboy nearly jumped out of his suit when some boy's booming voice came from out of nowhere. The startled Beastboy turned to see who scared him half to death.

Standing beside him was a school boy, roughly around the same age as him. He had long black hair, reaching down just past his ears. He wore the usual clothes required to be worn by any student of Jump City High School. He wore a white dress shirt, black dress pants, and black dress shoes. Behind him was a couple of his friends, taking pictures of the unconscious Mammoth with their camera phones. "Man, that was awesome! You totally OWNED that fool!" The school boy chuckled, pointing at Mammoth.

Beastboy looked at the boy, to the unconscious Mammoth, and back. Then he chuckled happily and scratched the back of his head, feeling flattered. "Hehee… it was nothin…" The Titan reassured. "I've fought this idiot many times before. Being strong doesn't amount to shit if you have the brain capacity of a household plant." The boy laughed, and walked over to rejoin his friends, who were taking turns having their pictures taken posing with the unconscious boy.

Beastboy was about to call in his team again, when he heard the faint sound of girls giggling, coming from across the street. He recognized one of the voices, and turned around. 'Terra…' Walking down the street across from them walked a blond girl, wearing similar clothes as the school guys, except for her skirt. Walking behind her was her two friends, who were talking about what they did in school. Forgetting that the girl denied being who he thought she was, Beastboy waved at her. But when the girl saw the green Titan waving at her, she stared blankly at him… before looking down. His happy grin disappeared when she didn't even acknowledge him… and when her friends sent him dirty looks.

'Right…' Then, the other Titans drove up, with an armored police van following close behind. And in seeing that his ride was here, Beastboy faked a smile, and turned to the high school guys. "Well, my ride is here… so I guess I'm leaving." He shook their hands, and jumped into the T-Car. And before driving off, Beastboy shouted to them as the policemen were hauling Mammoth into the van. "STAY IN SCHOOL!"

Back at the Tower

'Just leave her alone.' Beast Boy thought to himself, as he uncaringly flipped through the channels on the TV. 'She wants to be left alone. She doesn't want to be associated with the Titans anymore… she doesn't want me…' The others were in their own rooms, doing their own things, leaving Beastboy alone in the living room. His back was still aching from his encounter with Mammoth, but that wasn't bothering him now.

A week earlier, he discovered that a girl who he was dead certain was Terra was attending Jump City High School… but she assured him that she wasn't Terra. She claimed she had no idea what he was talking about… claimed to just be a regular girl. She claimed that he was mistaking her for another blond girl he knew. Even after Beastboy tried everything he knew about Terra, she still denied being that girl.

But he knew… he knew that that girl was in fact his former teammate. He knew her smile, her laughter, her looks… even her smell, and this high school girl had ALL of them. He hasn't been more certain about anything in his life. But what he didn't understand was WHY she doesn't want to admit she was who she was. 'Why? Why is she denying that she's Terra, the former Titan?' His thoughts came to a stop when he heard a familiar voice.

"Wow… look at those channels go." Beastboy's deep thoughts were interrupted when he heard Cyborg's voice. He turned, and saw Cyborg, sitting at the dining room table, drinking a soda. The cybernetic teen raised his real eyebrow at Beastboy, before pulling the can from his lips. "You've been channel SPRINTING for almost three minutes straight. Something up? Or is there just nothing on?"

Beastboy was so distracted by thoughts about Terra, he didn't even know he was still flipping through channels rapidly… or hear Cyborg walk in. Letting out a heavy sigh, Beastboy turned off the TV and flung the remote onto the other end of couch. "Yeah… unbelievable, huh? 850 channels and nothings on. Never thought I'd see the day." It was a lie… and Cyborg knew it.

He knew when Beastboy was lying by the way he acted and talked. If he was really looking for something to watch and found nothing, he'd already be begging him to play against him in their new fighting game. But this time, Beastboy sounded distracted, uninterested, and oddly calmer than usual. And while uncharacteristic as it was for Beastboy, Cyborg remembered a couple of instances where he acted EXACTLY the same as he was now. 'He's thinking about Terra again… hell…'

But the large, mechanical teenager didn't say anything about it yet. First, he wanted to be dead certain that his beliefs were true. "Yo, Beastboy." He began. Lazily, the green boy turned to his friend with a dull expression. "You up for a few rounds in our new fighting game? I've learn a few new finishing moves, and are dying to show you them." This was the deciding question.

Beastboy shook his head, and laid down on the couch. "Nah. Not right now man." Cyborg's face fell when his friend answered his question with that answer. "I'm still beat from scrapping with Mammoth. Maybe tomorrow, OK?" Again, Cyborg didn't believe a word he said. He has seen Beastboy willingly accept a fighting match when he had multiple broken bones and bruises. All Beastboy received in his fight against Mammoth was a few bruises.

Knowing what the problem was for sure, Cyborg sighed, walked up and stood in front of Beastboy. The smaller boy looked up, only to see his friend's tired expression. "You're been thinking about her, haven't you?" Cyborg asked. Beastboy looked up at the other Titan with a irritated frown… but he continued. "You get like this every time you think about Terra, dude. You get depressed, anti-social, distracted, and most of all, you actually turn down chances to play violent fighting games." He pointed out, causing Beastboy to look down, knowing what Cyborg was saying way true. "You got this way when Terra ran off after we found out she had problems controlling her powers. You got this way when she left the team to work for Slade. And you got like this after she…" He stopped himself before he finished the sentence. He knew talking about THAT moment effected Beastboy most of all.

"She's not gone…" Beastboy growled, as he turned around and faced the back of the couch.

"Dude…" Cyborg sighed, trying his best to sound as sympathetic as he possibly could. "You need to let it go. Terra is gone… forever. And she isn't coming back." Cyborg hated himself for being so painfully blunt. Losing Terra was without a doubt the most horrible thing Beastboy ever went through. But he wanted his fun-loving, energetic, happy-go-lucky friend back. "You need to move on with your life."

"She isn't dead…. She's alive and well…" Beastboy answered again, this time, in a shaky voice, almost as if he was trying to keep himself from crying. "I told you guys I saw her last week. She was a school girl attending Jump City High School. And she still is."

Cyborg rubbed the back of his neck, not liking what he was hearing. What his friend was claiming was just unbelievable. No one survive a volcano explosion… or survive being turned to stone. "I think you need to see a counselor… bad." The hybrid suggested, sitting on the other end of the couch. "I mean, don't get me wrong… Terra was a really cool person and I know you really liked her. But you gotta face it, man. She is gone. You're only seeing what you want to see. That might be a medical probl…"

Suddenly, Beastboy bolted up on the couch, his face hardened with both anger and sadness. "I don't like her, man. I LOVE her." He corrected, his eyes looking watery. "I can't explain how she's alive… and quite frankly, I don't care." Beastboy's hands tightened around the cushions of the couch. He narrowed his eyes at the ground as he continued. "Terra is alive. She was alive a week ago, and she still is now. The girl who I saw a week ago looked exactly like Terra. She had the same hair, the same eyes, the same smile, the same laugh… dude, she even SMELLED like Terra."

Cyborg looked at Beastboy… thinking his friend has gone crazy. "I know it sounds crazy…" Beastboy continued, wiping the tears in his eyes onto his arm. "But I know that earthy scent anywhere. She had the same overpowering scent of moved dirt and soil that Terra had. But…" He paused, and sat back in the couch. "She just won't admit she remembers." Cyborg was about to say something to discredit what Beastboy just said, but the green Titan answered before he could even ask. "And before you say anything, I know she's Terra and not some other blond girl because of how she ACTED. She acted nervous. And every time I brought it up, she'd quickly deny and either change the subject or walk away."

Now, there was nothing but awkward silence in the living room. Cyborg looked at Beastboy, not knowing what to say. What Beastboy was saying sounded insane, but he knew nothing he could say could convince Beastboy otherwise. So, giving up being rational, Cyborg sighed and sat back on his end of the couch. "What if she doesn't want to remember?" Cyborg's question was the same scenario Beastboy ran through his head, fearing that more then her UNABLE to remember. "I wouldn't want to remember all that bad stuff either if I did it… maybe she wants to escape that fact by starting over. Maybe she wants a normal life."

Again… silence. Beastboy sat up and stared at the ground, thinking. If that was the case, he didn't know how to go about this. What does he do? Does he continue on bringing her back of HIS benefit? Or does he leave her alone for HER benefit? When his green friend failed to come up with an answer, Cyborg finished.

"Like I said… let it go." He repeated. And just for Beastboy's sake, he added a hopeful thought. "And hey? Who knows? Maybe in a few years, Terra come around and realize how much she misses you. You could wait for her then."

"I can't wait that long." Beastboy groaned, standing up. Now he was pacing, signifying that he was REALLY thinking about this.

"You might have to, dude." Cyborg replied, looking sympathetically at his friend. "That… or you enroll into school. Hahaha!" The subject was getting too serious for Cyborg, so he threw in a joke. Beastboy hated schools, ever since he tried when he was young. But after thinking about what he had just suggested, Cyborg's eyes snapped open to see how Beastboy reacted to it. He turned just in time to see Beastboy open a window, morph into a falcon, and fly out.

'DAMN!' Cyborg screamed in his head, as he stood up, walked to the wall, and began banging his head against in. 'DAMN! DAMN! DAMN! DAMN! DAMN! DAMN! DAMN! DAMN! IT WAS A JOKE! WHY DID HE TAKE ME SERIOUSLY?" And as if on cue, Robin and the others walked in just in time to catch Beastboy morphing into a falcon and flying out the window.

Starfire watched the bird disappear in the distance, and turned to Cyborg in confusion. "Where ever is Beastboy off to?" She asked. Cyborg, with a big bruise on his forehead from being banged against the wall, turned to her with anime tears streaking down his face.

"Beastboy is going to school…"

To Be Continued…..

Well… there you go. I've gave you the basic theme of this story, and you can probably guess where this will go. Niham had a good thing going, but since she kinda gave up on Like a Fat Kid Loves Cake, I took it upon myself to continue it… with my own twists. And for all my Naruto fans out there, I apologize for taking a break on them. It just that when it comes down to writing my Naruto stories, it takes time and a lot of concentration from me. Don't get me wrong, I love Naruto, but I just need a break to refuel the ninja part of my brain. So… please don't hate me. I just feel that my other stories need tending to, too. I hope you all understand. Please leave plenty of reviews, and tell me if you see and spelling/grammar mistakes, please bring them to my attention. I appreciate your time, and hope to hear from you all soon. PEACE!
