A.N: here is the end. i've been thinking about this... and decided that the ending of choice hadn't been the greatest. So. YOU GET A LOVELY SURPRISE.

and maybe you won't hate me :) [before i forget if you ever want to talk to me just call me J or Jgrl instead of LivinJgrl123, thanks!)

WARNING: some SWEARING :)

"I did it!" a shout came from Raven's room. All the Titans jumped out of their chairs and ran to her room. On the floor was a pentagram. Raven's hand was bleeding, indicating that she was using, or planned to use, a spell.

"What happened?" Robin asked.

"I found the monster," she said darkly. "He's just outside of Jump. I swear... we need help on this. Call up Red X and Kyd Wykkyd. I need to ask them something."

Cyborg blinked. "What?"

"Get going!" she urged, "before he knows I've found him! This is our only chance!"

"What are you planning?" Starfire asked as Robin and Beast Boy left the room.

"You'll see," she assured her, turning her back towards the remaining heroes. "Now go!"


The Titans, accompanied by Kyd Wykkyd and Red X, were outside of Jump, only a mile away from the spot where Malchior was supposed to be.

"Alright, which one of you were convinced by Malchior?" Raven barked, marching right up to the two villains who were side by side and uneasy. They hadn't known what to expect from her when the Titans had persuaded them to meet them in a clearing outside of the woods.

Red X grinned behind his mask. "Me," he said. Raven glared at him.

"Did he promise you riches in return for his freedom?"

"Yeah, actually, and now I've got trillions stashed away thanks to that guy."

Raven raised her arm and gave him and unexpected, solid punch to the gut. He doubled over, but did not fight back.

"You're one hell of an idiot," she hissed down at him, "you never trust a talking book. Don't trust anyone except for the people who trust you, understand?"

A muffled insult was all that came from X, but he stood and remained silent. Turning to Kyd Wykkyd, Robin said, "and you. You helped him steal it, didn't you?"

"Yup."

She raised her arm to hit him, but then she dropped it. He blinked. She was done hitting people, for now.

Stamping her feet, she shouted, "you two are such idiots! Do you know what you've done?" her voice allowed hysteria to enter only for a moment as she tried to swing a kick at Kyd Wykkyd's head but Red X caught her leg and flipped heron her back.

"No, beauty, so why don't you tell us?"

"YOU HAVE RELEASED HIM! He's wanted that all along! You... you fools." she stood up and began muttering a dark incantation, closing her eyes and raising her hands up.

Finally, she shrieked, "COME OUT, COME OUT, WHEREVER YOU ARE, YOU SCALEY BASTARD!"

As if on cue, a wispy, mummy-like figure came out of the trees and hung back a bit at the edge of the woods.

"Ah. Raven. I see you have found me. Did you like my flowers?"

Raven's heart clenched painfully with rage.

"I'm going to lock you away for a very, very long time," she said in a low, dangerous voice, "and you won't be trapped among pages."

"Oh? And you belive you can stop me, dear Raven?"

"Yes."

Red X and Kyd exchanged looks: maybe his hadn't been such a good idea, helping this wizard dude.

But, like the rest of the Titans, they hung back.

This was Raven's fight, not their own.

Raven began chanting under her breath. "Azarath... Metrion... Zinthos!" she shouted the last word, black magic coming from her hands and grabbing the dragon in disguise, lifting him up.

He wasn't at full power yet.

Concentrating, she thought about another dimension, a dimension that she'd created before coming here. With the right spells, incantations, and amount of blood sacrificed on a makeshift alter, you could create an endless abyss.

An abyss you could not escape, unless it's creator allowed you, willingly, out.

A portal appeared next to Malchior.

"I can't kill you," she shouted, "but you shall spend eternity in there!" He looked perfectly calm. Why wasn't her trying to escape? Was he that confident?

If he was, he was a fool.

"Oh, dear Raven, I'll get out eventually," he warned her as she positioned the monster that wasn't, to her surprise, fighting back.

"Yeah, I'll be seeing you... never! Because it's eternity, you idiot!" With that, she dropped him, and heard his screams before she shut the portal and locked it.

Every few years she would have to fortify the dimension's walls, and eventually, she would have to teach it to someone. But she had eternity: it was okay.

Exhausted, she sank to her knees, and felt a presence behind her as cheers erupted from both her teammates and her enemies. She looked up and saw that Red X had his hand held out to her. She took it, suspicious, and stood up shakily.

"I'm sorry," he said suddenly. She whipped her head around, eyes wide. As tired and emotionally exhausted as she was, she believed him.

"Okay," she said, beginning to walk towards Beast Boy who walking over to give her a hug.

She wanted a hug, believe it or not.

Strange, huh?

X caught her arm and she could feel his grin even though his face was hidden by his mask. "You owe me, for the info," he said.

She scoffed, shaking his hand off her arm. "I do?"

"Yeah," he leaned forward, "and the favor I'm asking is that you leave me alone for a month."

"Not happening," Kyd Wykkyd said suddenly, "they'll go after you after about a day and a half, tops."

"Hey, we've got patience," Beast Boy said, scowling.

"I've got patience," Raven said, "you don't."

"That's what you'd like to think," Beast Boy replied.

"Alright, let's try it then," Red X said, staying next to Raven.

"Fine!" Beast Boy turned on his heel and headed for the T-car.

Raven actually laughed. "He won't make it," she told X as the others followed him and Kyd pulled a disappearing act while her eyes were on the villain next to her.

"You've got that right, beauty," he said. Now he was smirking.

Raven punched him. "Don't call me that," she snapped.

"I will if I feel like it," he returned.

"I don't like nicknames,"

"Sucks for you."

Raven glared at him, but before she could be on her way, he said, "I mean what I say, beauty."

Despite her urge not to, she blushed.

Actually blushed!

He began laughing, and she hit him again.

"I'll see you around, beauty," he called after he as she was about to step into another portal that would take her home. "Or would you rather go by 'princess'?"

A/N: There!

No, i was never planning this all along.

People just urged me to add more.
