Andrew had run down town quickly and was carefully checking everywhere for his brother's killer. From behind him came the laugh of a girl, a girl who wasn't much older then Andrew. Andrew turned to see who it was and saw her standing up on a light post. "Aren't you cute... coming to avenge your brother... do yourself a favor and don't fight back." The girl said as she jumped down from the light post. "I promise I'll make this quick."
Andrew felt an anger like he had never felt before. "When I'm done with you... there won't be enough left to fill a match box." Andrew said, walking toward her slowly. "Jade, right? You were hired to destroy the Titans... you only got one. Now I'm going to end you and bring him back." Andrew said as they got within arms reach of each other.
Jade laughed and put her hands at her sides. "Say hi to that cute brother of yours for me." Jade said as she pulled a syringe from her belt and thrust it at Andrew's chest.
Andrew caught Jade's arm and made her stab herself in the shoulder with her syringe. "That's from my brother." Andrew said, knowing that what just happened was pure luck. Jade froze in place and was no longer able to move. "Now you know how it feels... let those poisons flow through you blood." Andrew said, listening to her muted moan. Andrew could see that she was suffering from the burning in her blood. "Don't worry... I won't make you suffer the way you made my brother." Andrew said as he took away all of Jade's weapons and dragged her off to prison. Andrew couldn't kill Jade, even knowing what pain she had caused him.
Andrew walked back to the tower. "Its almost over... I hate to say good bye." Andrew said up to the sky as he approached Tom's body. "It was fun while it lasted." Andrew said as he knelt down to Tom. "Time to wake up big brother." Andrew said as he put his hand on Tom's forehead. Andrew said a quiet prayer and began to glow. The glow spread to Tom and got brighter, carrying him into the air. "It's time to come back... take care of yourself this time." Andrew said with his last breath.
The glow went away and Tom slowly drifted to the ground and landed on his feet. "What the..." Tom said as he looked around slowly. "That was strange." Tom told himself before he looked down and saw Andrew. Tom instantly knew what happened and let a tear fall from his eye. "Thank you little brother... I won't let your sacrifice go to waist." Tom said as he knelt down and closed his younger brother's still open eyes. Tom got up quickly after burying his brother, something was wrong. "Angel... where is she... I can't feel her." Tom whispered to himself as he rushed to find Angel. Tom found Angel struggling to breath on the other side of the island and picked her up in his arms. "Angel... what's wrong?" Tom asked her, hoping he could help.
*BB stood beside Tom* She's passing from this world..she'l soon become of what happened to you and your brother..*He looked at him* She loves you very much Tom, she wants to be with you..she remembers the love that me and her shared, but it's to late for me..You take good care of her Tom..I'm counting on you..*BB knelt so he was level with Angel, and then said softly* Angel you might not be able to hear me, but..Tom's alive..he's here right now..*He stood back up and said* She's one extraordinary girl..She's gone through so much Tom, and survived..

Tom looked up at Beast Boy. "I promise that I'll take care of her... I'll do everything I can for her." Tom promised. "She means more to me that anything in this world... I would never let anything bad happen to her."

He steped closer to the person. "Its the circle of life everything dies. even a monk like person you are should realize that. their would be no point in bring it back."
Karma looked up from the bird, sensing the presence of another nearby.
"Hello?" he called timidly, shaken by the realisation of his quest's magnitude, and startled by the presence he hadnt noticed before.
"Who's there?" He called, attempting a braver voice, but only resulting in a louder murmur.

"It is true that all things must die. But if that death can serve a purpose which benefits the world......then it is a courageous thing...", he turned and looked at the bird again...."When a bird dies, it should feed other birds or return to the earth........this bird rots.........it leaves no mark on the world.......at least none positive..........I fear it may be an omen of my own path."
Karma turned and looked at the stranger
"You hide in the shadows... Why?"
"Infact the bird is feeding the eath what do you think makes it rot. Organisms feed off of it giving life to other decomposers that live and heal the world. their for its use for death has a purpose." he shadowed eyes look away from the bird and at the boy. "Im a person born from the shadows. You could say i was one. for i dont make appearences offten in the world of day."

I have a same bond but weaker. I bet you for got i took some of you and switched it with mine. ive explored you at great distance when it seemed you were lost to me... ive looked at your past and emotions feeling your pains and fears."(have no idea what to put...😆)
"I-I... I don't want you to have to experience my pain as well as your own. It isn't right for you to have to. It's my pain..." *Dare hugged Follen and she too started to cry, not of sadness, but of gulit.*
*Dare turns to look at him. There are tears welling up in her eyes.* "I know.. I know... It's just that..." *Dare shook her head and wiped away her tears. Dare then walked up to Follen and hugged him, resting her head on his chest.* "I know you don't want me to suffer. It's just that I hate seeing you suffer too. I don't know what I would do if anything would happen to you. I don't think I could go on living without you."
