Chapter 14

Never give up

Cyborg wanted more than anything to enter the room but his legs refused to move. Raven the girl he had watched die was walking about in the room she died in. He rubbed his eyes thinking it was a dream but she was still there laughing and smiling at Beast Boy making stupid jokes. Raven noticed Cyborg, in between laughing at Beast Boys bad jokes, standing at the window of the room and smiled at him. Cyborg smiled back and finally found the courage to open the door and enter the room.

"…and the duck says I'm with the elephant" laughed Beast boy as he finished telling his latest joke to raven, who laughed out of pity at it.

"Hey Cyborg" she said as she smiled at him enter the room. Cyborg didn't reply, he couldn't he just looked at Raven and kept smiling at her, a single tear crept out of his human eye. Raven just smiled and hugged him.

"I missed you too" she whispered as Cyborg put one his arms around her and hugged her back.

"Don't worry bro I know hoe you feel" smiled Robin as he put his hand on Cyborg's huge shoulder. Cyborg just nodded and stopped hugging Raven, wiping away his tear in the process. Suddenly Robin's communicator went off in his pocket making Beast Boy nearly jump out of his skin.

"What is it?" Robin asked as Onyx's face appeared on the screen.

"We have trouble with a capital T" replied Onyx as a car wheel flew past his head, "hey I'm a bit busy over here!" he yelled as he turned away.

"What kind of trouble?" asked Robin as he heard the sounds of battle in the background.

"See for yourself" smiled Onyx as he turned his communicator round and showed them a huge dragon being bombarded with blasts of golden energy and star bolts.

"Where are you?" Robin demanded as he gulped at the sight of the huge dragon.

"53rd street car park and you guys had better hurry up we don't how…" but his transmission was cut short and the screen showed only static.

"You ready?" Robin asked as he looked over at Raven.

"Yes" Raven nodded as she put her hood over her head and looked back at Robin, smiling a little.

"TITAN'S GO!"

Onyx was sent flying into the side a nearby parked lorry by the dragons whip like tail, leaving a huge dent where his head collided with steel.

"Ok that'll hurt tomorrow" he said as he stood back up and rubbed the back of his head, "Sweet" he remarked as he looked t the dent his head caused in the lorry. Genesis wasn't faring much better than Onyx, she did manage to blast the creature with a few blasts of golden energy before the dragon turned it's head n her direction and blasted her with a torrent of black fire. Genesis was sent flying towards Onyx, who tried his best to catch her but was once again sent crashing into the side of the lorry.

"I have really gotta stop doing that" he sighed a she stood up again and rubbed the back of his head once more, "You ok?"

"I'm fine and thank you" blushed Genesis as Onyx helped her to stand back up.

"No problem" he called back to her as he ran back towards the dragon. Starfire continued her endless barrage of star bolts until the dragon grabbed her with one of its huge black claws.

"Foolish little girl" it hissed as it prepared to breath it's fire in her face. It was stopped however at the last second by a car exploding in it's face.

"In your ugly face!" cheered Onyx as he watched the dragon let go of Starfire and roared in pain. The dragon then pinned Onyx to the floor with one of it's claws and looked down at him struggle to break free.

"No in your face boy" hissed the dragon as it's eyes began to glow dangerous red. Starfire acted quickly and raked the creatures back with another barrage of star bolts. The dragon roared in pain again as the emerald blasts of energy tore huge chunks of flesh out of it's back. Onyx quickly rolled out of the way as Starfire continued her attack until the dragon was engulfed by a huge cloud of smoke.

"Now you see me now you don't" hissed the dragon as the smoke completely covered it. Starfire floated in the air for a while and waited for the smoke to clear. When it did eventually clear she looked down in horror, the dragon had completely disappeared from sight.

"Where did the monster go?" she asked as he saw Onyx creep out of his hiding place and look up at her.

"I don't know" Onyx yelled back up as he looked about for the dragon as well.

"I'm right here" hissed the dragon as it appeared behind Starfire and swatted her out of the sky with one of it's wings. Onyx tried to catch her but was driven into the ground as well by the force of Starfire's descent.

"I'm no good at this catching game" he coughed as he lay sprawled out underneath Starfire, "You ok Star?"

"Yes" coughed Starfire as she stood back up and helped Onyx to stand, "Why did you save me and hurt yourself?"

"That's what friends do" smiled Onyx in reply, "Now how do we beat old ugly up there?" he asked as he looked up at the dragon flying above them.

"You can't" hissed the dragon as it landed back on the ground crushing several cars underneath it's claws.

"No but I can!" yelled Genesis as she appeared above the dragon and threw a huge ball of golden energy at the dragons head. The dragon roared in pain as the ball exploded and engulfed it an explosion of pure energy.

"WOHOO!!!!!" cheered Onyx as he watched the dragons head crash into the ground, bleeding a strange black fluid.

"We are victorious!" cheered Starfire as she grabbed Onyx and started to dance around in a circle with him.

"Told you I'd win" panted Genesis as she floated down beside the celebrating Starfire and Onyx.

"Way to show old ugly there how to play ball" cheered Onyx as he grabbed Genesis and kissed her on the cheek, making her blush furiously.

"Yes you certainly showed that creature a thing or two" smiled Starfire as she grabbed Genesis and Onyx and hugged them both. They where all too busy celebrating that they didn't notice the dragons eyes shot open and glare over at them. The dragon slowly picked itself back up and shook the loose rubble off it's back before it looked back at the celebrating hero's.

"Ahem" it hissed as it yawned and let some smoke escape from it's huge mouth.

"Please don't let that be what I think it is" prayed Onyx as they all turned round and saw the dragon looking down at them, "Aww man we never get a break". Starfire and Genesis quickly took off into the air as the dragon released another torrent of black fire at them. Onyx wasn't quick enough and was caught by the fire and sent flying through a concrete wall behind him.

"Onyx!" cried Genesis as she watched Onyx smash through the wall with incredible force. Why did I just yell that? she thought as Onyx stirred admist all the rubble

"I'm fine" Onyx coughed up to her as he stood back up, smoke still rising from his burnt clothes and singed hair, "Just worry about ugly there!" he yelled as he jumped out of the way of the dragons huge claws. Starfire tried to attack the dragon again with her starbolts but the creature stopped her with a quick swipe of it's tail, sending the brave young women crashing into the ground. Genesis managed to dodge the dragons fire and tail attacks long enough to charge another ball of energy. However the dragon quickly appeared beside her and blasted her with a huge fireball sending her crashing into the ground beside Starfire.

"Now where did the other one go?" hissed the dragon as it landed beside Genesis and prepared to crush her with its claws.

"Yo scale face!" yelled Onyx as he appeared on the second level of the car park holding a large van above his head, "Don't you dare touch her"

"Or you'll do what boy?" hissed the dragoon as it walked back to centre of the car park and looked at Onyx.

"I'll introduce you to Mr heavy van here" replied Onyx as he glared at the dragon, an intense anger burned in is eyes.

"Be my guest boy" laughed the dragon as it changed back into the cloaked figure, "Give it your best shot"

"You asked for it!" yelled Onyx as he threw the van directly at the figure, who continued to laugh even as the van stuck him and exploded engulfing him in searing flames.

"Sorry Cy but Booya" panted Onyx as he collapsed to the ground and gasped for air, "Your outta here" he panted as he looked over at the flames and smiled.

"I think not" hissed the figure as it appeared behind Onyx.

"No way" laughed Onyx as he turned round and looked at the figure, he tried to put up his fists but his body was racked with pain. The figure didn't waste anytime and grabbed Onyx by the throat, making him gasp for air.

"Join your friends" it hissed as it tossed Onyx off the second level towards Genesis and Starfire. Onyx landed with crash as his back smashed into the ground, he managed to crawl over to Genesis and grab hold of her hand.

"This totally sucks" Onyx said weakly before he blacked out. Genesis opened her eyes and saw that Onyx was lying beside her, holding her hand.

"Onyx wake up" she whispered as he tried to wake up Onyx, but he was knocked out cold, "I'll protect you" she whispered to him as he stood back up and turned to face the figure.

"You know your being really annoying now" hissed the figure as it looked at Genesis standing back up and shook its head.

"My father told me to never give up, and I don't intend to" Genesis spat back as she entered her fighting stance.

"God was always a very wise man, pity you listened to him" hissed the figure as it flexed it's claws and charged at Genesis. It's charge was stopped abruptly as it was hit with a blast of blue energy from behind Genesis, sending it crashing into a car.

"Don't even think about it!" yelled Cyborg as he blew the smoke away from his Sonic Cannon and stood beside Genesis.

"You'll pay for that" growled the figure as it stood back up and sent a beam of black energy at Genesis and Cyborg. The beam was stopped several feet ahead of them by a black energy barrier. Genesis looked in shock as Raven appeared beside her smiling.

"But how I watched you pass on?" gasped Genesis as she looked at Raven, tears forming in her eyes.

"It's a long story" replied Raven as she dispelled her energy barrier and blasted the figure with a black energy blast.

"Pity you won't get a chance to tell her" roared the figure as it swatted the attack away and continued its charge towards them.

"Wanna bet!" yelled Robin as he leapt over Raven and Genesis and hit the charging figure with his bo staff. The figure was once again sent flying into a car, leaving another huge dent in it's side.

"I won't be stopped!" roared the figure as it stood back up and charged up another energy blast.

"Yes you will!" yelled Genesis as she sent a beam of golden energy directly at the figure, sending it crashing through the car into another car parked beside it.

"Impossible" gasped the figure as its back hit the car, leaving a huge dent in it, "After all these years of conflict you have finally beaten me" it sighed as it stood back up and looked over at Genesis.

"Does that mean?" asked genesis as she approached the figure, putting away her battle staff.

"Yes it means I surrender to you my sister" replied the figure as it pulled down its hood revealing it's true face. It was a young man, no older than Robin, with long black hair that was in a pony tail.

"Maybe now you'll visit me once in a while Chaos" smiled Genesis as she embraced her brother in a tight hug.

"Maybe I will" smiled Chaos as he hugged her back and cast her glance to the confused looking Titan's, "Uhh I think you should introduce me to your friends" he smiled as he broke the hug and looked at Genesis.
