War & Nevermore
Thanks Titan Lover for your speedy review. I love my pen name too - Jesus rocks the house:P
Rev 16:18 And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great.
"Can you believe this?" Robin was flipping through channels later and it was all over them. Every screen the same thing, they could almost assume Control Freak had the reigns again.
WAR. Almost everyone was going to War. Against God, blaming God for everything that had happened.
The famines, the boils, the earthquakes, the seas filled with a distasteful red liquid and the eternal darkness.
"Well people have been blaming the Big Guy for centuries" Cyborg said nonchalantly as he came back from a moving goodbye to the T-car.
With the water supplied diminshed, he knew that she'd suffer. It was a car that used up a lot of juice.
"So what do we do?" Asked Raven.
Robin looked slightly annoyed as he turned his head to address her, he grit his teeth and bowed his head "He'll handle it." He snapped back, "It's not our war."
It was difficult for Robin not to be in control. When evil was afoot, Robin would always be the one to put things right. He hated it, but this time the Titans would have to sit on their hands. These people had made their own fate.
An army of billions crunching their feet along the dried Euphrates, to make war with the ultimate Judge, thus becoming judges themselves... and Jump city had become pretty quiet in the recent hours.
"What about the others? The honorary Titans?" Beastboy asked, casually addressing the issue as if it was one of his Tofu burgers the people of the world had plans to incinerate.
"They've been told to step down."
"You mean ordered?" Cyborg smirked - it wasn't in Robin's nature to just "tell".
"The people of the world against God" Raven mused aloud.
"It was coming," put in Beastboy.
"6 melennia in the making" confirmed Robin, still with grit teeth.
Being on edge wasn't the greatest feeling in the world but sick to the stomach with anticipation, the "good" Titans had to wait there while the worst war in the history of the world formed.
All of a sudden, in the pitch black, the earth started to rumble like it was swallowing itself whole -- Raven enveloped the group in her spirit self and they disappeared.

"My eyes! The light!" Screamed Cyborg, half-joking as they were all hit with a sudden blast of bright light, that their eyes soon became reaccustomed too.
It wasn't really that light, but 7 months of straight darkness will do that to you.
"What was that?" Asked Beastboy, still rubbing his eyes.
"Earthquake" grunted Robin.
"Will it ever stop?"
"It's likely to continue for a long time."
"Judgement?"
This time Raven answered, "yes"
"Whew!" Beastboy leaned back after his tirade of questions then began again: "so there's nothing we can do?"
Robin breathed out and shook his head. "Nothing Beastboy, nothing." He looked around, "by the way, where are we?"
Cyborg and Beastboy looked at each other, "don't ask dude" - BB answered.
Needing some shelter from the storm, Raven took them to safe place... as long as her mirror stayed in tact during the earthquake.
Beastboy grabbed a marshmallow from a tree and stuck it on his nose. "Look who I am!" He joked.
Raven fried it, the marshmallow heating up on his nose without contact.
"Just trying to have some fun" he laughed weakly. "heh..."
"Go have it elsewhere."
"Did someone say fun?" said a bright, chirpy, HAPPY voice behind them.
Raven rolled her eyes, "Oh brother."
