TerraSlade! I made it! I'm alive. I can't believe they almost beat me.

That was nothing… compared to what I'm going to do to you.

[After Terra escaped the Titans and made it back to Slade's base]
TerraSlade! I made it! I'm alive. I can't believe they almost beat me.
[Slade strikes her]
That was nothing… compared to what I'm going to do to you.
You failed me, apprentice. I ordered you to eliminate the Titans. You did not. I commanded you to fight, and you ran.
TerraYou can't treat me like this.
Can't I? [strikes her again.] Who else would have you, my dear? You've done horrible things. Unforgivable things. Where else could you possibly go?
TerraAnywhere but here! I'm sick of fighting, and I'm sick of YOU!
[She struggles to take her armor off.]
You'll find that quite impossible. The suit's neural interface has integrated into your nervous system into your skin. It's part of you… and so am I, Terra.
Terra[gasps] No!
You chose this life, apprentice. It's too late to change your mind now. Far too late.
TerraBut it's not too late for me to walk out the door.
I'm afraid it is, my dear. You see… [holds one finger over the other wrist] …you no longer have any control in the matter.
[Slade pushes a button that makes Terra fall on her knees]
You promised to fight at my side forever. And that's a promise I intend to make you keep.
[Beast Boy reaches Slade's hideout and finds Terra]
Terra?
TerraDestroy me! Quick!
What?
TerraC'mon! Isn't that what you came for?
[Terra groans as Slade controls her again]
My apologies, as usual, my apprentice can't seem to control herself. That's why from now on, I'll be controlling her every move.
[Terra's groaning becomes louder, as electrical currents surround her]
What have you done to her?!
Nothing she didn't want me to. Terra came to me seeking control, and that's precisely what I've given her. My control, her body. I think you'll find I make far better use of her powers.
[He forces her to attack Beast Boy]
That's my good little girl.
TerraYou have to stop me, Beast Boy! Please! I don't want to fight anymore!
Then don't let Slade control you anymore!
TerraI have no choice.
That's a lie! You've always had a choice! It's all been your choice! You chose to work for Slade, chose to betray us, and now you've chosen to give him control! Slade isn't doing this, Terra! You are!
TerraNo!
[She traps Beast Boy underneath boulders]
Very good, my dear. Now shall we finish him off?
Terra! No!
TerraHe's too powerful! I can't stop him!
Yes, you can! It's your power, not his! You can still control it! You can still do the right thing!
TerraIt's too late.
STOP!
[Titans enter the lair]
Strike, apprentice! Now!
Terra! No!
It'll be the last thing you ever do!
I gave you an order! DO IT!
Please, Terra, no!
Don't do it! Don't do it!
Listen to us, Terra.
We're not playing around here.
Fight it.
You're still our friend.
You don't have to do this.
We want to help.
It's your life, Terra. Your choice. It's never too late to change.
TerraI'm sorry, Beast Boy, for everything I've done.
Terra's power! It's triggered a volcano!
Big enough to take out the whole city! And way too big to stop!
We have to get out of here!
Terra! Come on! We gotta go!
TerraI have to stay.
No!
TerraI'm the only one who can stop it.
Please, Terra, you can't! It's too late!
TerraIt's never too late.[She hugs him] You were the best friend I ever had.
[Terra uses her power to move the rock where Beast Boy is over to the entrance and he and the other Titans leave. Yellow light forms around Terra and the volcano gets worse and she unleashes her power]
[last lines of the series]
Terra[to Beast Boy] Okay, you've got two minutes.
Maybe you don't remember, but I do. You're my friend. You're a Teen Titan.
TerraYou're wrong.
You don't belong here, Terra.
TerraStop calling me that!
It's who you are.
TerraWhat do you want from me?
Why can't things just go back to the way they were? You were so happy then.
TerraThings were never the way you remember. Now just leave me alone.
[hands her his communicator] Here. Take this. In case you're in trouble, in case you need me, you can call me any time.
TerraI don't need it.
But...
TerraTime's up.
Terra...
TerraThings change, Beast Boy. The girl you want me to be is just a memory.
[over communicator] Come in, Beast Boy. We need your help!
Come with me.
Terra[shakes her head] You go. You're the Teen Titan. That's who you are. That's not me. I'm not a hero. I'm not out to save the world. I'm just a girl with a geometry test next period and I haven't studied.
[The bell rings and students exit their classrooms; Terra backs away and Beast Boy watches her fade away into the background]
[last line of the series; to Robin] Beast Boy to Robin. I'm on my way. Over.
[He runs out of the school and into the light, ending the series]
