Ch.1
Just Another Day...
'Sigh, where are you?' Robin thought. He had been doing nothing but searching for Slade the last 3 weeks and found nothing. He was getting frustrated. Slade had made several appearences, but had got away every time. It was as though he was toying with Robin.
Starfire knocks at the door.
"Robin? Are you awake? The morning feast is ready. Will you not come and consume large amounts of tofu waffles and bacon with us?" Starfire asked. Her voice was very cheerful, and made Robin feel bad about the way he had been treating her and the others lately.
"Thanks, I'll be down in a minute" He replied.
Starfire was filled with happiness. Lately Robin had only left his room to help them when Slade attacked. Now he willingly wanted to eat breakfast with them! She began to skip down the hallway towards the kitchen, but then she decided to fly.
Robin took one more look at a mask he had retrieved from his last encounter with Slade. He stared long and hard at it, then turned and left the room. 'Ah... Breakfast!'
Raven was at the table drinking her herbal tea and reading one of her mysterious and somewhat evil looking books. She was never hungry enough to eat what everyone made. But because she didn't have money, she couldn't cook, and she had no way of getting any other food... she had to live with it. The book she was reading was one of great power, evil power. It was known as the 'Chronicles of Chaos'. Within its withered and ancient pages were stories and spells (mostly spells).
"Breakfast is served!" Beast boy yelled. He held four plates, each of them carrying huge stacks of tofu waffles and bacon. He was staggering to the table. Obviously the plates were very heavy and he should have just carried them one at a time but he insisted on doing everything fast because he was hungry. He was almost there when out of nowhere a mysterious robotic foot creeped its way out in front of Beast Boy and WHAMO! He fell, doing a complete flip throwing all the tofu waffles right at Raven, who was intently reading her book not knowing what horrors were flying at her with great speed. By the time she looked up, it was too late... She fell backwards in her chair covered completely in waffles, and her book flew in Beast Boy's lap. Before Beast Boy could even get up, the pages began to turn. When they stopped the book was open to a page containing writing that was in the normal alphabet, but it was in words that made no sense. Beast Boy began to read, as if drawn to the book. Raven sat up, brushing the waffles off of her face and body. When she saw Beast Boy reading the book she got up, ran to him, and slapped the book out of his hands.
"NEVER READ FROM MY BOOKS!" She screamed at Beast Boy who was now confused as to what just happened. He turned and saw Cyborg who was laughing harshly. Beast Boy got up walked over to him and slapped him in the back of the head. Cyborg stopped laughing.
"Dude! You just got me yelled at! AND ALL THE TOFU IS ON THE GROUND!" Beast boy was now furious. Cyborg looked at him for a second in awe, then began laughing again. Starfire enters the room and was now wondering what happened to cause Raven and Beast Boy to be angry, and why Cyborg was laughing. Robin walks down the stairs and sees them too. Beast Boy turns to Raven and said "Whoa, I'm sorry about the whole waffle thing, but come on whats up with the book. I look at it and all the sudden I can't stop reading it." He was obviously a little upset about the whole thing. Raven picked up the book, closing it quickly. She then grabbed her tea, throwing a waffle from in it, and walked hastily towards her room. Robin and Raven were still standing in the same spot wondering what just happened. Cyborg left the room, a little upset because even though he had some fun he just lost his breakfast.
"So... was that breakfast?" Robin asked with a sigh.
"Dude, now is not the best time." Beast Boy said with a little agitation in his voice.
"May I prepare some Tamoranian Wood Larva?" Starfire said, a sudden joyfulness in her voice. Both Robin and Beast Boy stared at her, clearly showing their disapproval. "I think your expressions suggest no." She gave a sigh and walked off to see what Cyborg was doing on the Gamestation. Robin began heading back to his room. Beast Boy stood there and looked around him. He was surrounded by his beloved tofu.
"Do I have to clean this up by myself?" Beast Boy said, already knowing the answer.
Raven was on her bed looking at the book. It seemed to pulsate with energy... She knew that a great evil was contained within the book. It had belonged to a great mage during a war against demons. The Mage's name was Danimoth. The book was called the 'Epic of Order' when it was being wrote. But the evil that is contained within the book gave it the name the 'Chronicles of Chaos'. During the war against the demons there was a battle that would decide the future of the human race. The Battle of Arcanum. The battle was held in the main castle of the Mage Danimoth and was the last of the human strongholds. The king had been slain in the last battle and all command had been given to Danimoth. The demons, led by the Templar Tassadar, was moving an army of demons, consisting of Archons, Dragoons, Arbiters, and the undead. Tassadar had two great generals that were Archons. Artanis the Archon of Light, and Zeratul the Archon of Darkness. Tassadar was a Templar, meaning he was of a caste of demons who were reknown for their knowledge and magic. Tassadar was leader of the demons who were waging war on the human race. He was not the greatest warrior, but his magic could only be matched by that of Danimoth's. Artanis and Zeratul never left Tassadar's side, staying with him everywhere he went. Archons were beings of fire. A human like figure was surrounded by flames that never went out. Their bodies were solid black, charred from the intense heat from the flames. Their eyes glowed with a fiery essence, the same color as the flames around them. And they didn't walk... instead they hovered a few inches above the ground. The unusual thing about Artanis and Zeratul was their color. Usually Archons were fire (orangish changing lighter or darker). Artanis was blue getting lighter as it got closer to the body. Zeratul was solid, blood red, changing to no different colors. They were the strongest thing on the battle field that day. The humans were horribly outnumbered. The demons were bringing millions to the last human stronghold. The humans had mere hundreds, counting the civilians who were recruited. A single Archon could kill hundreds... there were thousands of them. The castle walls were built strong and the gates were almost unbreakable... almost. The attack started at sundown. Legions of skeletons and zombies began pouring against the walls, while several demons struck at the gate. Tassadar was on a hill about half a mile away standing with his generals. Danimoth watched the destruction of his city while standing on a high wall at his keep. He ordered a retreat, calling everyone back to the keep. Tassadar knew that would happen. He got the rest of his army and entered into the castle walls. When they reached the keep they were assaulted by a rain of arrows. The demons were barely scratched by the weapons, the skeletons and zombies simply fell apart when hit. Danimoth made his way to the armory. When he arrived he saw that many of the men were still unarmed and were waiting for weapons to be forged. He went to his bedroom and picked up his armor, his sword, and his staff. The gates of the keep were now becoming weak. A constant assault by 3 Archons was enough to destroy almost anything. Tassadar was overjoyed with how well the battle was going and was eagerly awaiting for the gates to break so that the massacre could begin. Danimoth gathered what was left of his men and headed to the gates. When they arrived many of the men were shaking in fear. An Archon was almost throught the gate. When Danimoth stood before the men, they stopped fearing and readied their swords. If they were going to die they were going to make sure that they went with a fight. The first Archon came through, destroying the rest of the gigantic gate as it went through. The demons continued past the wreckage, Tassadar and his generals following. Danimoth saw this as a chance to stop the demons and end the war. He fought past Artanis and Zeratul, casting a powerful spell that kept them within the book he carried, The 'Epic of Order'. He then turned to Tassadar, who knew he was no match for the great mage. Danimoth drew his sword, as did Tassadar. The fight was short. Danimoth threw down Tassadar with a violent blow from his sword. It was that moment that ended the war. Danimoth bannished Tassadar within the pages of the book, changing the book to a dark color.
Raven knew that Tassadar wanted to be freed. She knew that if he was set loose that the same war would occur and there might not be any hope for the human race. She set the book on her bed and left, locking the door behind her. She started to walk down the hall when Beast Boy came around the corner. He was carrying some tea. When he saw her he ran to her, and handed her the tea.
"I'm sorry about what happened, and I'm sorry about the whole book thing." Beast Boy said hoping for some sign of forgiveness.
"I know what happened, and I'm not angry with you. And thank-you for the tea." Raven said, unusually happy.
"That's weird, I was expecting you to want to shrink my head or something." Beast Boy stated with suprise. "Hey! I got some money, how bout I but us all lunch?"
"I'd like that." She said blushing, with a smile on her face.
"Well get the others, I'm going to go get the cash and then we'll go eat something." He said smiling back. Raven headed down stairs to get the others. But Beast Boy stood and waited for her to go around the corner, then he turned into an ant and went under her door. When he changed back he grabbed the book, and opened the door. His plan had worked.
