Chapter 8

Daddies back

Cyborg erupted from the darkness and was about to fire his sonic cannon until he saw Nightwing toss Paine across the cemetery into a wall.

"The the hell?" he asked in confusion as he watched Paine leap away from Nightwing and blast him with a red ball of energy. Beast Boy came barrelling out of the darkness and slammed straight into Cyborg's huge metal back.

"Dude what's the hold up?" asked Beast boy as he rubbed his face and glared up at the metal hero.

"That" replied Cyborg as he pointed his finger towards Nightwing and Paine battling in the middle of the cemetery.

"What the hell is he doing here?" asked Speedy as he appeared beside Beast Boy accompanied by Starfire, Hotspot and Aqua Lad.

"Beating the crap out of Paine…..Woo go Nightwing!" cheered Beast Boy as he watched in glee Nightwing catch Paine's attempt at a flying kick and slam her into the ground.

"Yeah well he had better not kill her, I want to make her pay for what she done to Jinx" hissed Speedy as he watched Nightwing pick Paine back up and send her crashing into a tombstone.


"This might be a little harder than I thought" coughed Paine as she stood back up and spat some of her blood onto the ground. Nightwing smiled as he motioned for her to attack him again. Paine didn't waste much time and threw herself at Nightwing intending to hit him with a punch to the face. Nightwing simply steeped aside and grabbed Paine's arm and pinned her to the ground.

"Who are you working for?" demanded Nightwing as he applied even more pressure to Paine's arm.

"My father!" roared Paine as she reversed the hold and hit Nightwing in the ribs with both of her feet. Nightwing coughed as he staggered back a few feet and held his ribs. Paine flipped up and rammed her bo staff into Nightwing's chest and then used it to knock Nightwing onto the ground by sweeping his legs. Nightwing snorted as he threw an exploding disk at Paine hitting her in the chest.

"And you can't stop me!" growled Paine as she stood back up and blasted Nightwing with another beam of red energy.


Trigon opened his demonic eyes and looked around him.

"What is it my lord?" asked a small demon standing at the base of Trigon's throne. Trigon didn't reply and quickly stood up and made his way towards the nearest window of his palace.

"No!" gasped the demon lord as he opened the window and watched a huge storm rain hell fire onto his domain.

"What is it my lord?" asked the small demon again as it watched it's master look out of the window.

"The end has begun" growled Trigon silently as he turned and looked at the lowly demon, "Bring his soul to me now!" roared Trigon making the demon tremble in fear.

"Very well my master" stammered the small demon before it scuttled away and disappeared into the darkness. Trigon once again turned and looked out upon his kingdom, he watched the storm of evil topple huge mountains of skulls and destroy many of demonic legions.

"Listen to me Raven" whispered Trigon as he closed his eyes and tried to block out the sound of the storm devastating Hell.


Raven slowly opened her eyes and saw a red robed version of herself standing in front of her.

"What do want father?" asked Raven bitterly as she tried to stand up.

"I have come to warn you my daughter" replied Rage as she helped Raven stand back up.

"About what?" asked Raven as she patted the dust of her cloak and looked at her sister/father.

"That he is coming" Rage replied.

"Who?" asked Raven but she already knew who her father was talking about.

"You know who" smiled Rage gently as she took her hood down and revealed tears flowing from her four crimson eyes.

"What is it father?" asked Raven as she watched her father/sister wipe away her tears and look at her, her eyes begged for forgiveness.

"I am going to try and stop him from being summoned but I fear I can only but you some time my daughter" smiled Rage as her body started to fade away.

"Father!!" screamed Raven but Rage had already faded away. Raven snapped out of her trance and saw Nightwing crash into another tombstone thanks to a beam of red energy blasted at him by Paine. She was about to help him until she felt someone grab hold of her arm.

"Huh Genesis what are you doing?" demanded Raven as she watched the goddess stop her from channelling her power into her hands.

"Stopping you from doing something very stupid" smiled Genesis as she dragged Raven over to where the other Titan's stood.


"Hello Trigon" said a cold emotionless voice from behind the huge demon. Trigon growled as he opened his huge eyes and turned and saw a single robed figure standing in the middle of his throne room.

"I see you have finally found your way to Hell" smiled Trigon as he looked at the robed figure.

"And I love what you have done to the place" replied the figure in a mocking tone as it looked around itself at the countless faces moaning in agony from the walls. The figure once again turned it's attention back to the demon lord of Hell and took down it's hood revealing that only darkness existed beneath it.

"At last we see the true face of the first evil" laughed Trigon as he changed his size so he was now about the same size of the figure.

"Pity it will be the last thing you ever see" laughed the figure as it created a large black sword and charged Trigon.

"Goodbye Raven" Trigon whispered to himself as he created a sword of his own and charged at the figure.


Raven felt a strange sensation that made her feel slightly light headed, she felt like she was about to faint.

"Hey Rae you ok?" asked Cyborg as he looked at Raven.

"I don't…" but Raven passed out before she could finish her sentence. Aqua Lad was quick to act and caught Raven before she hit the ground.

"You Genesis what happened to her?" asked Cyborg as he watched her rush to Raven's side. Genesis didn't reply as she placed her hand onto Raven's forehead and chanted something under her breath. The Titan's watched as Genesis's hand started to glow a faint white. The light seemed to completely bath Raven in it's warmth. Raven slowly opened her eyes again and looked up at Genesis with sad eyes.

"He's dead, my father is dead" she said sadly as she buried her face in Genesis's chest. Genesis smiled gently as she stroked the weeping empaths purple hair.


The demon groaned as it dragged a chained man through the landscape of Hell. It barley managed to avoid the many lightening bolts that struck the ground around it and roared in annoyance as a small amount of hell fire landed on it's tail.

"What's the matter afraid of a little fire?" smiled the man as it watched the demon pat it's tail fire out. The demon hissed angrily at the man and wrapped it's tail around the man's neck. The man gagged for air for a few minutes before the demon slammed his body back into the ground.

"Silence scum!" growled the demon as it yanked the man back to his feet and continued to drag him towards a huge building.

"Where…where are you taking me?" coughed the man as he struggled to stay standing. The demon just snorted once and rammed it's huge fist into the man's ribs making him cry out in pain.

"I said silence scum!" commanded the demon as I continued to drag the man towards Trigon's palace. The man coughed again and managed to look up at the castle that Trigon caled home.

"What in the name of Hell is this place?" asked the man as the demon awaited the drawbridge to fall.

"Your worst nightmare" smiled the demon as it dragged it's prisoner across the drawbridge into the darkness of Trigon's palace.


The figure sighed as it dropped Trigon's mangled body onto the floor and wiped it's sword on the demon's white hair.

"Now that was boring" sighed the figure as it dispelled it's sword and walked casually to Trigon's throne.

"Now to take care of that dammed Saviour" snarled the figure as it turned and watched a demon drag a battered man into Trigon's throne room. The demon used it's tail once again to pick up the man and slam him into the floor in front of Trigon's throne.

"Here is the soul you……" smiled the demon before it's words trailed off as it saw Trigon's body lying motionless on the floor.

"Why thank you my good demon" laughed the figure as it pointed a finger at the demon, "Now good bye" smiled the figure as it blasted the demon with a huge beam of black energy. The demon roared before it was struck by the beam of energy and was completely vaporised it. The figure blew the smoke away from it's finger and walked towards the chained man.

"Who are you?" asked the man weakly as it struggled to remain on it's feet.

"Your guardian evil my friend" smiled the robed figure as it helped the man to remain standing.

"What?" gasped the man as it looked at the figure in front of him. The figure just smiled as it rammed one of it's clawed hand into the man's chest. The figure watched as the man screamed in pain and try to pull the claw free. His screaming was suddenly replaced by sick laughter as the figure removed it's claw and looked at the man. The man was now wearing a black uniform with several bit's of silver armour protecting his chest and arms. He also had several chains hanging from his body, each chain had a razor sharp point attached to them.

"Not bad" laughed the figure as it looked at it's avatar, "Not bad at all"

"What have you done to me?" asked the man as he looked down at his new appearance.

"You are now my hell spawn, my avatar my envoy of the end" smiled the figure as it put it's hood back up.

"What will you have me do my master?" hissed the man as he dropped down to one knee in front of the figure. The figure just knelt down and whispered something into his Envoy's ear. The man just laughed as the figure pulled away and walked away from him.

"Very well my master" laughed the man as a long red cape erupted from his back and bellowed about behind him.


Paine stopped in her tracks as a bolt of red lightening struck the ground in front of her.

"It's time" she smiled as she dropped her bo staff and pulled out the vial that contained Jinx's blood.

"No Nightwing stop her!" screamed Genesis as she saw Paine open the vial. Paine glared at the goddess and the Titans and blasted them with a huge beam of red energy, sending them all flying into tombstones. Nightwing roared in fury as he launched himself at Paine who simply turned her gaze to him and threw a small vial of green liquid at him. The vial exploded on Nightwing's chest and released a strange green cloud that made Nightwing fall to the floor holding his face and screaming.

"Stay out of this" smiled Paine as she took the sack of hearts off her belt and emptied them onto the ground.

"Return his soul to this plane" commanded Paine before she started to chant something in a strange language. She continued to chant as she poured Jinx's blood onto the hearts and watched as they erupted into flames.

"Return his soul to this plane now" she whispered as she took out her knife and used it to leave a deep slash across her palm.

"Return my father to me now!" she screamed as a drop of her blood fell into the flames causing a huge explosion that sent Paine crashing into a nearby tree. Nightwing was sent flying across the cemetery and landed beside Genesis and the other Titan's.

Nightwing tried to open his eyes but his vision was still fuzzy but he did manage to see a single figure standing in the spot where Paine once stood. This new figure stood tall amidst the smoke and had a strange red cape flap around it, making it look like it was standing in the middle of a fire. This figure looked nothing like Paine but it somehow seemed very familiar to Nightwing. Paine managed to open her eyes and smiled as she saw a figure standing in the spot where she conducted the ritual.

"Father?" asked Paine as she stood back up and walked slowly towards the figure.
