I do not own the Teen Titans.
Chapter 7: Harmonic Song part 2
The Higher Humans rushed into battle as the military shot countless rounds at the approaching green army. Their bullets though, were ineffective and bounced off the tough hide of the Higher Humans.
The centaur bull creature known as Barren, charged into the military ranks. His horns gored a tank as he lifted it off the ground and threw it over at another tank. Barren continued his onslaught by trampling the unfortunate troops who got in his way.
Merraz shot a cluster of red plasma bullets out of his gun at a tank. The plasma then began to eat away at the tank, till there was nothing left except for the drivers. Grinning, Merraz chucked them away with his arms and continued his attack with the rest of the army of Higher Humans.
The All Animal was out in the harbor, dodging countless bullets and missiles. He was alone, but that was ok, for he had the power to defeat them all. Diving down on a Destroyer, he plunged into its lower hall and came out in the water. The ship gave a loud creaking noise as the water from the sea entered through the hole that was in it. Crew man jumped off the boat as it began to tilt backwards with its nose sticking high in the air.
The All Animal continued his attack, by slashing his claws against another Destroyer's right side, causing water to enter it and the crew to abandon ship. Flying over to another Destroyer, The All Animal dived into the sea and went underneath the boat. Putting his hands up to touch the boat, he shot out of the water carrying the boat as well. Crew men from the other ships gawked at the sight of a huge Navy ship being carried over New York City. They ceased fire for they feared shooting at their own.
Mark used the back of his right arm, as he swatted a dozen Army officers away. The heroes and villains did not enter the battle, for if they did the Higher Humans would kill the Army instead of just injuring them. King Mark laughed with delight as he smashed the front end of a tank and grabbed its barrel and tossing it into some other tanks. His smile disappeared as a shadow covered the bridge.
Looking up it instantly returned as he saw his son carrying a Navy boat. The battle ceased for a few minutes as all looked up at The All Animal. The Higher Humans having smiles on their faces to see their leader taking care of the Navy, while the rest of the world watched in horror as The All Animal chucked the Destroyer at some mountains in the distance. There was nothing on the mountain at the time, but when the bystanders saw the Destroyer fly over their heads and onto the mountain they began to panic.
The All Animal roared as he sent a beam of green light at the Armies vehicles. The green light shone on the vehicles causing them to malfunction and turn off, leaving the Army completely venerable if they already weren't.
Mark looked at his son with such a proud face, but it was not to last as that same smell penetrated his nose once more. This time it was much stronger and it smelled even worse than the last time. He looked over at the Heroes and Villain's who took battle stances in case the Higher Humans decided to continue on an opponent that was already beaten and was now surrendering. One caught his eye. The Raven woman stands alone having dark energy emanating from her hands. Her eyes were white and her scent filled Marks nose along with all the other Higher Human's noses as they smelled the scent. A scent that was all too familiar that they all hated, except for one.
Mark instantly charged as he roared at Raven. Raven's eyes went wide as she saw the beast raise his right hand to slash her. Other Higher Humans also came after her with their weapons ready and their claws itching to slash her. As Mark stood mere feet from her, her life flashed before her eyes, but stopped when she was lifted up in the air by a really strong hand and place behind her lover.
Garfield stood in his father's way with his right hand on Raven's back while his left was extended to stop his father. His father stopped immediately and roared in agitation. The rest of the army soon followed suit and began their frustrations.
Cyborg, Starfire, and Nightwing came to stand by side by side with Raven as they hid behind The Changeling. Mark paced side to side as his son dropped his left arm, but kept his right on Raven's back. He snarled and stopped in front of his son giving him a glare.
"You protect this… this… THING!" he roared as he exposed his sharp teeth. "How dare you my son. You should know that this thing is an unholy abomination that must be dealt with!" he roared again earning himself a glare from Raven.
"What are you talking about?" Raven said in her monotone voice.
Mark froze for a second with his left eyebrow twitching. "It talks to me?!" he said as his face turned a reddish green. "How dare you talk to me, you half demon!" he roared as he approached her, but was stopped when Garfield got in his way.
"Father please I can explain." Garfield pleaded.
His father shook his head feverously. "No, no, no, no, no!" he said looking at his son with a glare. "You've been sharing passionate relations with a demon. A creature that was brought up of evil, I thought that you becoming The All Animal and releasing who you truly were would have brought you to your senses. I guess I am wrong, she must have bewitched you!"
"What? No father she did not bewitch me!" Garfield yelled back in agitation.
"Then you are clearly giving in to your hormones child!" his dad growled at him. "These demons will try to seduce you in all of their ways. I can't even believe you when you said you did not lie with her." his dad was furious at the moment and grabbed his head with his right hand in frustration of how his son could have made such a stupid choice.
"Please father if you would just listen to me I could explain about this." Garfield pleaded once more. His father looked at him and looked at him up and down and at Raven until he looked at his son's eyes and nodded. Garfield felt an overwhelming amount of relief, even with all of these people around and the news helicopters. "Father," he began, "Raven is a half demon, but she is so kind and sweet, she tries everyday to help others, because of who she is and what others think of what she'll become. But I will tell you once you get to know her. She is just the greatest person you'll meet. She is funny with her sarcastic remarks and makes me laugh whenever she does them. She is very strong in her morals and beliefs and does not touch an unclean thing." Garfield's dad put his right hand underneath his chin and begins to wonder on what his son is saying. "Father." he said again causing him to pay attention to him again. "She is the one for me and I am for her, do not let what her heritage is get in the way of our love, I beg of you." Garfield said looking back at Raven with a smile. She also smiled back and looked at him.
Mark began to ponder what his son has just said and sighed. "You will end this before it gets to serious Garfield." Garfield shot his head back towards his father along with Raven and everybody else who wasn't a Higher Human. "This is against our ways and this is final. All Animal or not, you are my son and I am only trying to do what's best for you. I am pretty sure that she does try to be good and do the right things, but Garfield, our kind descends from Heavenly Beings. We cannot go against our ways, I am sorry, but once she gets older it'll be hard for her to control the inner demon that lies inside of her. This is final." Mark spread his wings and went back into the city along with all of the other Higher Humans.
Garfield stared at the ground with sorrowful eyes and before Raven could look at him, he already turned his back to her and released his hand from her back.
Raven looked at him with a calm, but worried face and tried to say something. "Garfield I…" Before she could finish he spread his wings and flew off back towards the city. Raven's eyes began to tear up as she began to cry. "Garfield I love you so much that I don't care about your traditions." She said in a sob as she collapsed to the ground on her knees and began to sob in her hands as Starfire came up to her left side and knelt down putting her right hand on her back.
AN: Oh sorry for the shortness of the story, but I had to hurry and finish this one, because it's just been on my mind lately.
So was that pretty sad or what. I'm not really good with this drama stuff so I'll try my best with it.
