The absolute second-to-last chapter in this little tale of... whatever you wanna call it. Thank you to any, and everyone who reviews, you all deserve some kind of merit award, or, something.
Chapter Seven: No Compassion
Doombringer looked around, trying to decide which one to kill first. And, not being able to decide, he just rushed at the nearest one.
"Shadow Speed! Darkness Phase!" He yelled, disappearing, and reappearing behind one of the guards, who was decapitated. This panicked the rest of the guards into trying to get away from Doombringer, making all the better to him. Raven had taken to the air to search for Cyborg in the confusion. Beast Boy had taken the form of a rhino, and was ramming guards left and right. Doombringer was slicing through guards, as though their armor was nothing more than paper.
In all the confusion, a guard called out: "Focus on the one with the sword! Forget the rhino!" Doombringer's eyes grew wider. Then he narrowed them.
"Pathetic mortals! You can't kill me! No mortal weapon can kill me! So, prepare to die." The guards tensed. There were only about half of them left, and Doombringer only seemed to be getting started.
Raven, meanwhile, was still searching for Cyborg. Beast Boy had given up trying to help Doombringer, who made it quite clear that he didn't need any help, by killing off half the guards in under a minute. (Long sentence) He had taken the form of a hawk, and was helping Raven search. They circled the main chamber first, looking for any available corridors. They reached the end of the dome, and found the only passageway that lead to a different room.
Doombringer was merely toying with the guards, loving every bit of the fear he saw on their faces. One guard rushed at him, and was sliced clean in two. A second guard had his heart removed. A third had his lungs completely ripped out. And so Doombringer came up with new ways to kill his victims. Once they were all dead, he went to catch up to Beast Boy and Raven.
He snuck up behind Beast Boy, and put a hand on his shoulder.
"What?" He asked, turning around
"Your soul is mine!" Doombringer said, preparing to gut Beast Boy on Death's Call (A/n: that was his sword)
"NO!" Raven yelled. "Azarath, Metrion, Zinthos!" She yelled again, this time her eyes turned black, as did Death's Call. It flew to her hand, and she found out the hard way, that she couldn't lift it, when it hit her foot. Pain surged through her foot, as she used her powers to lift it off. She looked up to see Doombringer struggling with... something... or someone.
"NO! You will not regain control..." Doombringer said, his voice strained. "I will. You will not harm my friends." Doombringer said in Vampyre's voice. His hands were at his head, as though a struggle was raging in his mind.
"Get. Out." He growled, again in Vampyre's voice. "Never. We made a deal. I intend to see it through." This time in Doombringer's own voice. "When you broke the pact you made, you awakened me. There's nothing you can do now."
"NOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Doombringer yelled, as his spirit was banished to the corners of Vampyre's mind, and the armor disappeared. Death's Call also disappeared from Raven's grasp. Beast Boy ran off to find Cyborg, and Raven ran to Vampyre, who still hadn't gotten up. He was lying perfectly still, and his eyes were barely open.
"Vampyre, are you okay?" Raven asked, worry evident in her voice.
"Raven... Take this." He said, showing her a small black, glowing orb.
"What is it?"
"Raven. In all the time I have lived, I have wanted but one thing: a daughter. This may be my only chance. It will make you pregnant, but you do not have to use it. If you do decide to use it, I will be back before I am needed." He sighed, and took one last breath, and look at Raven. Then he closed his eyes for the last time. Raven felt his whole body go limp, and she saw his life-aura give out. But she didn't want to believe it. She couldn't believe that he was dead. He was, perhaps, the only one to truly understand her, and now he was dead.
Despite the battle raging about, Beast Boy had managed to find Cyborg, but could not figure out how to wire Cyborg, so that he would function normally. That was when he found Raven, grieving over Vampyre, and had to drag her to Cyborg. When she got to her true love, she immediately knew what to do.
5 minutes later...
Raven had Cyborg hooked up, and running, and they were running out of that Cavern. But when they ran past Vampyre's body, Raven stopped to pick it up. Cyborg stopped her, and picked his body up himself. They ran past all of the mutilated bodies, and the Three, who were pretty beat up. They didn't stop running until they had reached the Tower. When they got there, Cyborg laid Vampyre down on the couch. And they went to bed. No one seemed to notice the temperature drop.
