Memories Chapter 1: Who's Beast Boy?, a teen titans fanfic

Disclaimer: I don't own Teen Titans; they belong to DC comics, Cartoon Network, whatever. Just not to me…sniff

Okay, since this format doesn't allow page breaks (which is reaaaaallly annoying), the substitute for that shall be:

Haha, and yes, if you noticed, that is the beginning to the Teen Titans theme song. It's stuck in my head right now, so therefore it shall be stuck as the page break.

Also, this takes place after all the events of Raven's father coming back and all that Prophecy stuff...so there might be tiny spoilers that I'm not aware of. And I suppose that also means Slade is still alive, but he's not really gonna play much part in here.

Summary: When a grueling battle with Cinderblock leaves Beast Boy gravely injured, the Titans are distressed to find that all his memories of being with them are gone. Now, Beast Boy thinks he is still living the life he had before becoming a hero. Will the other four Titans be able to handle this strange Garfield Logan that they never had a chance to see before?

Prologue

"Beast Boy, hang on!" Cyborg shouted, cradling his friend's body carefully in his huge arms. "Come on man, keep awake! Don't close your eyes, Beast Boy!"

"Come on, Cyborg, we have to get him back to the tower!" Robin shouted. "Raven, fly him there as fast as you can and hook him up in the medical room, we'll catch up with you!"

The goth girl nodded, and quickly enveloped Beast Boy and herself in shadows. Robin never saw the giant raven fly so fast.

"Friend Beast Boy will be okay, yes?" Starfire asked softly, her green eyes large with distress.

"I hope so, Star…Cinderblock sure did a number on him. Dammit!" Robin slammed his fist into a rock, ignoring the pain. "Why did Beast Boy have to go and do something so stupid? He was supposed to have waited for us!"

"Hey, man, we all make mistakes…it just happens that this one cost Beast Boy a lot more than he bargained for."

"Azarath Metrion Sinthos…Acarath Metrion Sinthos…" Raven chanted quietly, hovering in her usual meditation position. But this time, she was doing something far more urgent; using her telepathic powers, the purple haired teen was attempting to heal as much of the green changeling as possible.

"Raven! How is he?" The other teens had finally arrived.

Raven frowned. She needed to concentrate if she was to heal their friend, and the irritating noises the others were bound to make wouldn't help any. Her expression immediately softened; the others were only worried as much as she for the injured Beast Boy. He had taken serious injuries when Cinderblock had decided to go berserk and repeatedly slam the small teen against the ground. That was probably why Beast Boy couldn't change to defend himself.

Raven sighed. She hated being the bearer of bad news, especially since that hit too close to home. "He'll be mostly okay. I'm pretty sure I'll be able to heal most of his physical injuries; at least the really serious ones."

"Mostly okay?" Robin repeated worriedly.

Raven ignored him for the moment. "Broken ribs, punctured lung, broken arms, fractured leg, to name a few. But I can repair them."

"But what did you mean by mostly okay?" Cyborg persisted on Robin's behalf.

The empath was silent for a moment.

"Raven?"

"He…has a major head injury that I can't fix. We have to wait for it to heal by itself, and I don't know if…if it will."

Everyone gasped and Starfire promptly started crying.

"He…he won't survive?"

"I only said there was a small chance!" Raven snapped, the stress of what had happened getting to her. The door got blasted off its hinges, enveloped in dark energy. Quickly, Raven calmed herself. This was NOT the time to lose herself, not when Beast Boy needed her. "You guys, if we want Beast Boy to heal as best he can, I'm going to need as much space to concentrate."

Everyone took the hint and nodded in unison. With last glances at their injured friend, they filed out of the room.

Raven resumed her position and began chanting once again. "Azarath metrion sinthos…"

"Worthless, good for nothing SCUM!"

Young Garfield Logan cowered against the wall, curling up into the smallest ball he could manage. "Please, Mr. J, I-I'm sorry I m-m-messed up! I won't do it again!"

"But you still messed up, didn't you?" Came a second voice, leering over the small green boy. "You cost us a whole bag of money, twerp, AND you almost got us all killed! If I knew any better, I'd say you were TRYING to get us caught!"

"N-no, I wasn't! I promise, I wasn't!" Garfield shrieked desperately as two shadows loomed over him. "No!"

"NOOO!" Beast Boy shot up out of bed, eyes wide and bloodshot. Startled, Raven was jerked out of her trance to look at Beast Boy who was now wildly looking around the room to get his bearings.

"Beast Boy! You're awake!" Raven frowned as the other teen didn't respond, only continued looking around the med room. "Hey guys," Raven said into her communicator, "He's awake. But-"

There was a rumbling sound and three panting teens were nearly in her face. Raven blinked. "Okaaaay..."

"Friend Beast Boy! You have recovered! It is a joyous moment indeed!" Starfire exclaimed joyfully, flinging her arms about the green teen's narrow shoulders. "I-" She was immediately cut off as Beast Boy suddenly gave a small cry and pushed Starfire's arms off of him. The motion jarred his weak body, sending him crashing to the floor, moaning.

"Beast Boy?" Robin cried in alarm. He turned to Raven. "What's wrong with him?"

"I don't know." The four teens quickly gathered to the other side of the bed where the fifth Titan was curled into a ball, clutching his head.

"Beast Boy, what's wrong?" Robin asked softly. Wide green eyes looked up fearfully, lips trembling.

"Who's…B-Beast Boy?"

Oh, and I forgot to mention that a triple 'page break' like above just means the end of the chapter. Anyway, hope you like, and sorry for the cliffhanger, but you know why I did that…REVIEWS! So send 'em in!

(please?)
