A/N: I don't own the Teen Titans.
Chapter Twelve
Swords clashed as the first battle for Earth began between the demons and the angels. Michael was fighting one-on-one against Samiel as Urkiel fought Rave and Samuel. Gabriel was fighting Lilith and Metatron was fighting Jerico. Reko was leading the rest of the demons into battle and Stormwind led the angels. " Do you really think you can beat me Michael?" Samiel asked as his flaming sword clashed with Michael's.
" Good will always overcome evil." Michael responded swinging at Samiel's legs. Samiel jumped over Michael and landed behind the angel.
" Oh please." Samiel said as Michael blocked his attack. " You're still holding on to that worn out belief as if it's going to do you any good when Lucifer comes and this world is in flames."
" That is not going to happen." Michael said. He ducked Samiel's blade and dodged the hot wind coming from the demon's hand. " You traded love for hate, life for death, and Heaven for Hell."
" And it's the best decision I ever made." Samiel laughed as he leaned back to avoid Michael's sword.

" Is poor Urkiel tired?" Rave asked sneering at the archangel. Urkiel attacked but was blocked by Samuel who kicked him in the gut. Urkiel doubled over and lifted his sword in time to stop Rave from splitting him open. The two demons easily out maneuvered the angel and eventually had him trapped at the edge of the cliff. Urkiel charged at them and knocked Samuel into a rocky wall. The demon slumped to the ground. With only one demon to fight Urkiel felt that he was gaining the upper hand as Rave was having a hard time blocking his attacks. He couldn't have been more wrong.
Dunes
Gabriel smashed into the sand as a result of Lilith's fire blast. He rolled over and managed to escape a kick aimed at his head. The fight hadn't been going as well as Gabriel had hoped. In fact he hadn't even been able to draw his sword yet. Lilith attacked him again with another blast that hit him in the chest. She walked to his unmoving body and was about to pick him up when he suddenly threw sand in her eyes. She backed up and rubbed her eyes. When her vision cleared Gabriel had drawn his weapon.

Metatron swung at Jerico, who was smiling since the beginning of the battle. He dodged just as Metatron's sword rushed at him. Jerico ducked again and kicked out Metatron's legs. The angel fell and flew back when Jerico's foot clashed with his face. The demon jumped on him and began pounding his face. Metatron caught Jerico with a punch to the side of the archfiend's head. Metatron rolled Jerico until the archangel was on top and closed his hands around the fiend's throat.

Cimry attacked Mammon with all her might. Mammon flew back into Reviel who had been fighting Mercurio. Reviel sighed as he picked Mercurio up by the throat and threw him to the ground. He blocked Cimry's sword and smacked her into the sand. He grabbed Mammon by the collar of his robe and forced him to stand. Mammon nodded at the hell beast and turned to the spot where Cimry had been. She was gone!

Cimry looked at Darkness. He had grabbed her and teleported them to another part of the battlefield. " Troth." He lowered his head and didn't say anything. " Why?" Cimry asked. Darkness still didn't answer her. She moved closer to him and took his face in her hands. " Why?" Then he surprised her. He grabbed her head and pressed his lips against hers. Cimry was shocked to say the least. Darkness pulled back and leaned against a rock wall. Cimry put her fingers to her lips felling the tingling sensation that was there.
" I love you." Darkness said pulling Cimry out of her daze.
" You can't, I mean you're a..."
" Demon." He finished for her. " I may be a demon, but I know what love is."
" I don't know what to say." Cimry said. They sat together in silence for a few moments.
" I made the wrong decision." Darkness said. " I see that now." Cimry moved to sit beside him. He looked at her and smiled grimly. " I know that because of all the horrible things I've done, I can never be an angel again."
" Troth, you know that you can still be forgiven." Cimry said.
" I don't know." Darkness said putting his face in his hands. Suddenly he looked up. " Cimry run!" He leapt to his feet.
" Why?"
" Mammon and Reviel, they know you're here!"
" What about you?" Cimry asked.
" I'll be fine, get out of here!" Cimry grabbed Darkness and kissed him.
" I love you too." She said before disappearing. Darkness smiled and hid in the shadows.

Mammon and Reviel arrived at the place where they had sensed Cimry and Darkness. Suddenly a dark form moved across the floor and rose to meet them. " Where is she?" Mammon asked.
" Not here." Darkness said. Reviel growled.
" He is a traitor, I can smell her on him." The hell beast said. Mammon frowned.
" Where?"
" Far away and you will never touch her." Darkness said getting into a fighting stance.
" Jerico should have cut you when he had the chance." Mammon said. He charged at his former friend and hit him with a blast of demonic energy. Darkness dodged but was knocked into a wall by Reviel's tail. The dark man fused with the shadows and began lashing out at the two demons. He threw Mammon to the ground and wrapped a tendril of dark around his neck. Reviel had seen enough and when Darkness had his back turned he hit him with and inferno blast. Mammon stood and dusted off his cloths. " Lucifer's gonna be mad."
Cliff
Urkiel hit Rave with the hilt of his sword and kicked him in the gut sending him into the rocks. Rave stood and slashed his sword. A razor sharp gust of wind hit Urkiel in the chest which made him fall back against Samuel's chest. Samuel put a choke hold on the angel as Rave beat him. Then they picked him up and threw him off the cliff. Urkiel smashed against the rocks and bounced down the rocky side until he hit the ground. Rave and Samuel teleported to his unconscious body and took him to the ritual site. Lucifer's rise was at hand!
Ritual Site
Urkiel was chained to a satanic symbol as Rave and Samuel prepared. He struggled against his bonds but he couldn't free himself. " Let me go!" He yelled. The two demons didn't respond. " Do you realized what he will do if he's freed."
" Lead us to victory." Rave said approaching with a dagger.
" No you can't!" Urkiel screamed as the dagger pierced his flesh. His screams died away as all the blood spilled from his body. Samuel began chanting the words as the blood caught on fire. As he finished the chant, a huge earthquake began shaking the temple the stone cracked at an amazing rate as the fire traveled toward the battlefield.
Battlefield.
Michael hit Samiel in the face and was about to attack again as an earthquake shook the battle. The battle stopped as both angel and demon watched the fire approaching. As the fire reached Michael and Samiel it erupted into a towering inferno. A figure rose in the column of fire. Its wings of fire stretched out as the tower disappeared. The mans jet black hair flowed around his shoulders and his black eyes shown with evil. Michael stepped forward. " Lucifer." Lucifer smiled.
" Hello Michael."
Titan's Tower
Raven was getting packed in her room for the trip to Russia when she suddenly dropped to her knees. That pulse so evil, so powerful. The spirit of the Anti-Christ appeared beside her mother. She placed a hand on Raven's shoulder. " He's here, Lucifer has arrived!" Jezebel laughed.
" No." Raven whispered.
