Teen titans; The Rest of Us
Chapter 50: Goddess of the Truth
"YOU!" Kayumon leapt out as he slashed at Verra's throat. "Get out of my face!" He rushed past, Robin staying on the ground with Starfire as his comforter. Raven watched in horror as the claws came down on top of Verra's shoulder. That's when Cyborg decided to separate them. "No more guys, we've got enough problems alright."
But the two were trapped in the everlasting heat of battle; none of his words seemed to reach. "What did they do to you Kay?" Verra dodged a blow from the sorcerer's staff power. "I gave up my LIFE my HOME my job AND my friends, just to be able crush you!" He sat in a state in mid air just as Raven had before when plasmus was in town. His power grew into the shape of a flower and blasted at the team.
"Gah!" Beastboy grabbed hold of Robin and jumped out of the way with Starfire. Which made him react in the process. He fell over once they'd landed, safe and out of danger. "Watch it!" He shouted to the two.
"Huh? Robin?!" Cyborg saw as Robin used whatever he had left and turned tables by becoming the negotiator. "Robin! You are in no condition to continue fighting! You must rest and heal!" Starfire called over to her friend. Raven blocked him in the ways that she did best, by just being there. "You're being reckless, stop before you get yourself killed." Robin shook his head weakly.
"I…know what to do…" With it he said nothing more as he walked past Raven who was too blind to stop him. He looked over at the two and managed a whistle before grunting from pain. The two looked over but it was Kayumon who got the idea to kill the leader before Verra talked some sense into him. "No ya don't ya fool hardy bastard!" Verra caught the fox by its tail and began to bite harder into the skin. The tail lit into foxfire and Verra backed away. "Kid!"
Robin was half stooping over onto his ribs, but the fox struck a barrier 'Roku,' the son had created to protect his creation. Robin didn't even notice as he fell to the floor. "He has to rest! Raven please….." Starfire gave her a look that she could at least trust. Her eyes were tearing to the brim without the consent of the others just yet. "Kayu, back away from the boy."
Robin was up in an instant; it was the goddess! He almost smiled. Starfire floated over as if being drawn to their new guest. Rather, they were the guests...
Kayu growled at her as he changed back. "Why should I listen towards a minor? I've lost enough bones as of now!" "How is it that you do not remember?" she asked. "Who are you to portray the knowledge of thee beast?"
"How can I not." He sat up and stared Robin to his knees. "I have power, more than I could have ever dreamed." He showed his prowess as he jumped up into the air and shone golden in colour. Was he transforming? This was new, a creature also considered a split being from another world, and it seemed that Calumon was Kayumon! All along! Another twist!
This creature was black with purple markings on it with a red mark of three trinity-like triangles centered on its forehead. It had purple eyes, big and soft, with a heated anger showing. There was some red in them as well. "Goddess, do not lecture me." It demanded. "That boy is a threat to our world, he must be vanquished or all hope is nothing to us or the great unknown." His eyes changed to softer typed ones. "He is a silly head, yup yup!" He changed back after. "Goddess, hear me when I say, these brats are nothing to us! Rid them from this place at onc –
DO not command me, you are not one of the gods. Verra, restrain your cousin." Verra looked Kayu in the eye. "Be a good fox spirit please, bro –
Goddess…." Verra turned his head. "Robin?!" Robin was standing as his strength had yet to return. "Dude…" Beastboy watched as his bud tried to move away from the group and up to the goddess herself. "Robin, don't try to help." Raven floated over and took his arm. "Just stop." Robin wasn't really awake enough to reply. He drooped. Voices in his head spun and his only friend, was fate. Again he tried to remain intact. But the goddess somehow lured him to a calming place…. A god's realm. Voices played in full. He was long from awake now, fast asleep in a chamber of light and darkness...
Raven shook him. "He's…sleeping…" Now it was her turn to be surprised. "You, you're Isis aren't you." She wasn't pointing, like Slade had said, they're wasn't any need. Isis, the goddess high as high got. Robin was asleep from her spellcasting. It was indeed something, but after it, Verra had said something about her earlier. About a vortex, and a way out. Would this way be for the Titans as well? Malchior wasn't pleased at all. "NO, no, no!" He stomped his foot. "What are you doing here!" The goddess walked forward to check on Robin. "Fine, and how are you." Robin aimed for leaving her as quickly as possible, but missed his chance. Soon a vision came streaming towards and he immediately felt the plunge into dark, cold, lake water. "Get away!" He said aloud so that the Titans heard with their own ears. "I'm here to help." She waved out her hand and made a cloth appear out into her palm. "Here." She handed it to Robin who twice refused. Starfire floated over in a hurry.
"Robin, she is good, you do not have to worry." Robin squinted up at the goddess. "Why should I listen to you?" He crossed his arm, the other broken. "I have more to give than a god –
You Roku, have less to give than a mere goddess." He looked up at her harsher than before. "I AM A GOD!!"
A gust of wind almost knocked over the goddess and made poor Starfire fall. "Star! I…uh….." Again Robin fainted.
