The Angel Of Darkness
"You can never escape me!" Trigon's words woke Raven from her dream. Raven's dream did not wake up Beast Boy who slept still beside her. Still picturing Trigon's words, Raven crept out of bed.
Her room was dark; the only light was from the storm outside. Raven walked to her window, staring out into the rain. "I wonder why this is happening," Raven thought, "I keep having the same dream. It's like the Gem never died, just restored to a deep sleep." Raven sighed.
"Raven is everything alright?" Beast Boy curiously asked. Raven jumped, forgetting all movements around her. "I'm fine, I just love watching the rain," Raven lied. "Well come back to bed it's too early," Beast Boy responded. Raven crept back in bed. Raven lay close to Beast Boy. He wrapped his arms around her. He held her close in his arms. She always felt safe in his arms. She slowly drifted back to sleep, wishing away her problems.
The next morning, everything returned to normal. Cyborg and Robin were playing video games with B.B ready to play the winner, Starfire attempting to make breakfast for her man, Robin, and Raven sat in her corner reading one of her favorite books. Titans tower had a calming atmosphere. Suddenly, the alarm set off. The Titans raced to the T-car and drove to the site of the break-in.
When the Titans arrived, Cyborg and B.B began to bet who the criminal was. "The Hive, no wait Dr. Light, or maybe even Mumbo," Cyborg gloated. None of the Titans were expecting the face of their past.
"What do you want Slade?" Robin demanded. All the Titans took their fighting positions. "I'm checking on my old friends. It's been so long since I've seen you," Slade spoke. "This will be a short reunion Slade," the Titans responded. All the Titans had grown much stronger since their last fight with Slade.
Robin was the first to attack Slade. Robin jumped up into the air and threw one of his gadgets at Slade. Slade was covered in ice. But the trap did not last for more than a few seconds when Slade kicked Robin so hard, he was sent flying. Next it was Beast Boy. Beast Boy transformed into a T-rex and whipped Slade across the room. Raven used her powers to demolish the exhibits around Slade and tossed the remants on him. Cyborg used his blasters to crash the sign above Slade so it would fall.
It appeared that Slade was losing, until he pulled out his trump card. Another one of his gadgets, it seemed that Slade would disappear and then reappear.
Slade attacked each Titan one by one. First it was Starfire. Slade shimmered behind Starfire and knocked her out cold. Robin rushed to his love's aid, but it was a trap. Slade immediatley dissarmed Robin and out manuvered him. Cyborg tried to help Robin, but his efforts were in vain. Beast Boy was beaten as well.
Finally it was Raven and Slade who would face off. "I have a special task for you Raven," Slade whispered to Raven. Instantly, Slade began to play mind games with Raven, knowing her weakness. Raven's powers began to destroy everything in close proximity to her. He persisted until Raven lost control of her powers. The building was soon destroyed. Luckily none of her friends were hurt, but neither was Slade. Fearing she might lose control once more, she ran off.
