Justice League Go!

Chapter 4: Raven Decides

"You'll never past us, Cinderblock, so you might as well give up," Robin both looked and sounded imposing as he stood up on top of the chain link fence, his cape fluttering in the breeze, the sun shining brightly behind him.

"Yes," Starfire chirped. "Please do the surrendering so I may go home and become the potato of a couch."

"It's called a couch potato, Star," Cyborg corrected, turning his right arm into a cannon.

"But how can…"

"Can we please just get this over with?" Raven groaned. "I would like to be able to think an intelligent thought sometime today."

"Yeah right," Beast Boy snickered from his crouching position next to Robin. Upon catching sight of the glare on Raven's face, however, he quickly backtracked and said, "What I meant to say was; you're going down, Cinderblock!"

Cinderblock didn't say anything but continued to stare at the Teen Titans dumbly. As far as anyone knew the villain had neither the power of speech or a brain. If no one paid him to do anything then Cinderblock would simply destroy everything in his path until someone dared to stop him. He was taller than Cyborg and composed entirely out of stone. Instead of being round in shape like most he was completely square and a weird tan color.

"So…are you going to fight us or not?" Cyborg asked.

Cinderblock just blinked at them. After a few more seconds he let out a load roar and charged.

"Titans, go!" Robin ordered as he shot a grappling hook into the abandoned warehouse that Cinderblock had been hiding out in.

Immediately the Titans sprang into action: Starfire threw green star bolts from her hands, using her eyes (which now shone a bright green) to shoot green laser beams. All of which had very little effect on the behemoth in front of her.

"Booyah!" Cyborg shouted as he fired his cannon several times. When the smoke cleared it was to reveal Cinderblock still standing there, now looking angry. He roared and, picking up Cyborg, threw him over the fence and into the city dump.

"Cyborg!" Beast Boy cried. "You'll pay for that," he growled then leapt off the fence, changing into a jaguar mid-air. Robin followed suit, alternating between throwing explosive batarangs and using his metal staff.

Raven just rolled her eyes when Robin and Beast Boy collided, accidentally knocking Starfire out of the air as well. She raised both her hands and began chanting. "Azarath, Metrion, Zinthos. Azarath-"she was interrupted by the sound of voices in her head.

"Bruce Wayne, knock it off right now!" a woman's voice shouted angrily. "Billy's still out of it and he does not need any more stress right now."

"Shayera's right, Bruce, now lay off," another female ordered. She sounded vaguely familiar, almost like Wonder Woman but not quite.

"I don't care," Batman growled. "I understand he's sick but that's why we need to act now. The next time his powers go haywire he could destroy the entire planet!"

"Yeah, right," another male voice laughed. "He can't destroy the entire planet." There was a pause. "Right?"

"Uh, Flash, do you know how long it would take me to destroy Earth? Less than half-an-hour and since Billy is basically a living Ring and can do whatever I do a whole lot better…it would probably take him less than five minutes."

Silence, then, "Oh."

"Raven, look out!" Beast Boy shouted.

"Huh?" Raven looked up just in time to see a large crate come flying through the air towards her. Since she didn't have time to move or through up a telekinetic shield the crate hit her right in the stomach, causing her to fly through the air and land on top of Cyborg who had been in the process of getting up, knocking both them back to the ground.

"Ow," Raven muttered as she listened to the sounds of crashing and curses (mostly from Robin) that indicated Cinderblock was escaping.

"Raven, you're on my spleen," Cyborg whimpered.

"Sorry," the Goth girl apologized as she stood up and began trying to get the garbage off of her.

"Friends, are you all right?" Starfire asked worriedly as she flew over to them.

"No we're not," Cyborg said as he stood up. "It's going to take me hours to get this gunk out of my circuits."

"I can help with that," Beast Boy offered as he turned into a dog and began licking Cyborg.

"Ew," the half-robot made a face. "Now that's just disgusting."

"Raven!" Robin yelled angrily as he stormed over. "What on Earth happened? You let Cinderblock get away!"

Two Hours Later

Raven closed the door to her room and heaved a sigh of relief. "Well at least that's over with," she grumbled, still a little annoyed after having been forced to listen to a very, very long lecture (more like a shouting match) from Robin. Granted, she wasn't exactly thrilled with her performance either but it wasn't her fault. Technically the blame lay with Billy Batson or whoever was messing with her mind, making her both see and hear things. If this continued she would get any or rest or be able to mediate or fight bad guys anymore. No! This had to stop right now.

She took a deep breath and sat down as if to meditate. "Azarath, Metrion, Zinthos. Azarath, Metrion, Zinthos." When she opened her violet eyes Raven once again found herself in the long hallway. But it looked strangely different this time. The doors no longer held the names of the Teen Titans but, instead, read several different things: The Marvel Family, Justice Society of America, Justice League Unlimited, Justice League International, Justice League of America Power Girl… Raven ignored all of these, however, and instead focused only on of the doors that read, "Justice League." The reason she noticed this one was because not only was it glowing white, it was also open a crack. As she stood outside the door Raven hesitated. Once she went through that door there was no guarantee that she could ever come back but she had to do it. If not for her sanity than for the sake of Billy Batson, whoever he was. She closed her eyes then re-opened them. She took another deep breath then opened the door and stepped through.

A/N: I hope this chapter's better than the last one. Don't worry; Billy will definitely be in the next chapter. Oh and the doors represent alternate realities. Let me know what you think. Please read and review!
