Chapter 25

Nightwing's true nature

Nightwing quickly pushed Raven out of the way of Crow's eye blast only to be hit with the beam himself.

"Nightwing?" screamed raven as she watched him sail through the air.

"I'm fine Rae get the other's and get the hell out of here!" Nightwing yelled back as he landed on his feet and threw several explosive disks at Crow.

"But?" Raven protested before Nightwing cut her off.

"Raven I mean it now go!" yelled Nightwing as he leapt away from one of Crow's tentacles. Raven took one last look at Crow and Nightwing fighting before she ran over to where the other Titan's lay and picked them up using her powers. Nightwing sighed a breath of relief as he watched Raven leave the room with his friends.

"Crow come on man fight this!" yelled Nightwing as he used his bo staff to deflect one of Crow's dark energy blasts.

"Crow is gone little boy" snarled Crow as he cupped his hands and blasted Nightwing with a huge bolt of black energy. Nightwing barely managed to dodge the blast but was caught by Crow's eye blast as he landed back on the ground.

"Rage shall consume all!" roared Crow as he stalked over to where Nightwing landed.

Raven managed to get everyone outside and gently placed them on the ground beside each other.

"Come on BB wake up" pleaded Raven as she knelt down beside the green changeling and patted his cheek gently.

"Uhh hey Raven" smiled Beast Boy as he opened his eyes and looked up at Raven.

"You ok?" asked Raven as she smiled back down at Beast boy.

"My arm kinda hurts" smiled Beast boy as he held his left arm close to his chest. Raven smiled gently at him and placed her hand over his arm. A gentle white light bathed Beast Boy's arm making him giggle slightly.

"That tickles" he giggled as the light made his arm his arm feel a little warm.

"All done" smiled raven as she removed her hand and watched Beast Boy move his arm up and down.

"Thanks doc" smiled Beast Boy as he stood back up.

"Anytime now help me with the other's" said raven as she stood back up and walked over to Cyborg and tried to wake up the metal giant. Beast Boy saluted military style and ran over to Starfire and knelt beside her.

"Morning good looking" smiled Beast Boy as he lifted Starfire's head and watched her open her eyes.

"But it is not morning" Starfire replied as she smiled weakly at her smiling husband, who leant down and kissed her.

Nightwing jumped away as Crow tried to crush him into the ground with his foot, and threw a freeze disk at him. Crow roared as the disk struck him in the leg and covered it in a thick layer of ice.

"Chill out" smiled Nightwing as he ran at Crow and hit him hard in the chest with his bo staff. Crow rocketed across the room and slammed into a wall in the far corner. He eventually stood back up and glared over at Nightwing in rage.

"You shall pay for that boy" snarled Crow as he created a long jet black sword to his clawed hands.

"Just try and make me" Nightwing spat back as he twirled his bo staff around his head and smiled at Crow. Crow just roared in fury as he charged at Nightwing and clanged his sword off the brave hero's bo staff. Nightwing kept smiling as he dodged each of Crows attacks and countered with a huge uppercut to his chin. Crow reeled back a few steps in pain giving Nightwing the opening he needed. Nightwing quickly got in close to Crow and hit him hard in the chest with his bo staff before hitting him in the face with a devastating jump kick. Crow roared as he was once again sent flying across the room into another wall.

"Impossible how can a mere boy stand up to me?" snarled Crow as he stood back up and glared over at Nightwing.

"I'm not a mere boy, not anymore Crow" smiled Nightwing as he put his bo staff away and looked over at Crow, "Let me show you my true form now"

Crow watched in awe and horror as beams of light stabbed into Nightwing lifting him several feet into the air. The light then surrounded Nightwing as he screamed in pain, his body was changing but into what.

Raven helped Cyborg to stand back up before she looked back at Hive's former hideout in awe and shock.

"What is that?" asked Beast Boy as a bright beam of light shot from the building and pierced the night's sky. Raven didn't say anything she just watched the beam part the clouds and reveal the stars in the night sky.

"Nightwing" was all she said as the beam grew even brighter engulfing the whole city in light.

"It has started" whispered Genesis as she watched the beam of light hit the night sky.

"Yes Nightwing has finally accepted his role" smiled Chaos as he stood beside his sister.

"The saviour has been awakened"

Crow watched as the beam of light disappeared and Nightwing fall back onto the floor covered in smoke.

"Nice show but you forgot to end on a bang" sneered Crow as he sent blasts after blasts of black and red energy at Nightwing, but only to watch in horror as they bounced off his body. Crow roared in fury as he created a huge ball of black energy and threw at Nightwing engulfing his body and the room in smoke and dust.

"Darkness can never be defeated" laughed Crow as he waited for the dust and smoke to settle.

"Light always chases the darkness away" Nightwing simply said as he stood back up, the smoke still hid his body . Crow couldn't believe what he was witnessing, Nightwing had stood back up even after his most powerful attack.

"What are you?" stammered Crow as he watched Nightwing step out of the smoke and reveal his new form.

"I am the saviour of life" replied Nightwing as he watched Crow tremble in fear at his new form. His costume was no longer black it was now a brilliant white. His hair as now blonde and no longer fell over his eyes. He looked at Crow, his eyes where a perfect white and they seemed to look into crow's very soul, "And you must be saved" he said as he unfurled his jet black wings and walked towards Crow. Nightwing was an angel and he had finally accepted it.
