Shadowolf: "Hay there dudes sorry it took me so long to get this chapter up but I was busy with the other Teen Titans stories I am working on".
Chapter5: The Truth is Revealed:
Tempest lay on the ground, his blood dripping out of him, Beastboy was running around with panic in his eyes. Raven sat beside Tempest making sure he was still breathing, he had a pulse but it was very weak and his breaths came in short spanned out gasps.
Raven carefully took a sample of the demon's venom so she could create a anti-venom for Tempest. After she had taken the sample, she called to Beastboy. He snapped out of his panic shutdown to see what she wanted.
"Hay Rae" He said
"I need you to keep a eye on Tempest. I do not want to leave him by himself, those demons could have laid eggs all over the tower and they could hatch at anytime. I need you to keep him out of harms way until I can come up with a anti-venom" Raven replied.
"You can count on me Rae, Oh, and hurry. I don't know how much life is left in Tempest." The green elf replied sitting down beside Tempest.
Beastboy never left Tempest's side in fear that his friend would pass away into the unknown. He did not know what to do to keep his friend from dying first he just spoke to him, keeping up an conversation about Raven and what he thought of her. It was all he could think of at the time.
"So Tempest, I know you have great feelings for Raven. What do you think of her?" Beastboy asked him. The white demon did not reply at first, he only turned his head to the side in great pain, closing his eyes.
This scared Beastboy. He did not know what to do so he started to shake Tempest wildly to wake him up. "Hay…hay wake up! You can't die now, your Rae's Guardian! You can't die on her now come on you're a white demon so act like one!" Beastboy yelled into Tempest's ear, shaking him back and forth.
Tempest's eyes snapped open as his hand came up to grab Beastboy's wrist stopping the movement "I'm still alive, barely, if you want to help me please, in the name of my gods, do not shake me". The white demon replied angrily. Beastboy was relieved that his friend was not dead yet.
Raven looked around her room for herbs the cure demon's venom that flowed through her friend's body killing him slowly. But things ever go the way you wish them to.
Raven picked up a container filled with herbs but none of what she needed, Raven had all the herbs in the world, all but one. Dragon's Fire, the only known herb to act as a anti-venom to demon's venom.
But as fate would have it she was fresh out of this kind of herb.
Beastboy sat beside his friend telling him to hold on to his last bit of life.
"Dude you can't leave me now." Beastboy said
"You told me that." Tempest replied.
"Sorry."
"It's okay."
"You still didn't tell me what you think of Rae" Beastboy told him.
Tempest closed his eyes. Raven, it was hard to talk about her. She is complex.
"Raven she's hard to understand at a point in time." Tempest replied trying to think of more to say.
"Hay she is complex and hard to understand now and again, but she's Rae and that's who she's going to be and if she won't change, I'm fine with that." Beastboy said.
"You really care for her don't you?" Tempest asked
"hay I do…you could say I'm in love with her."
"I have only known her for two days and already I love her…but I can not let that stop me from my job here on Earth." He told Beastboy sadly.
Raven quickly rummaged through her thing, trying to find a herb that would make up for dragon's fire.
Then it came to her. Why not use the demon's own venom as a substitute for dragon's fire? There was a good possibility that it could work.
She did have a small sample of the venom, but she would need more then she had with her.
Raven rushed out her bedroom door to tell her friends everything would be fine. As Raven rushed around the corner of the dormitories, she could hear Beastboy and Tempest talking about her. She stopped to listen to them.
"I love Raven I really do but I can't let…love intervene with my mission Beastboy even if it means giving up hope of ever falling in love"
"you mean if you go through with this mission you can never love again?" Beastboy asked him.
"Look I'm just saying green elf, that I'm not always going to be here for her." Tempest said
"what do you mean? Are you saying that you have to sacrifice your own life for the fate of the Earth?" Beastboy asked him.
"Yes, that's exactly what I'm saying. Once I die you must make sure Trigon dose not put one hand on her or all is lost." He said.
Raven could not belief what she was hearing Tempest the very same Tempest who had saved her life, had to given his own life for the sake of the world.
Raven stood there quietly, not making a sound, listen to the rest of what they were saying.
"Don't worry I won't let that demon touch her" Beastboy replied
"thank you my friend" Tempest told Beastboy.
Raven moved in closer to get a better ear on what they were saying. "I still thing it's wrong for you to end your life for ours."
"You may think that…but I'm not only doing this for the world but for Raven as well" he replied.
Tempest got up slowly closing his eyes in pain, putting his hand over his side only to remove his hand to find it covered in blood and a greenish venomous liquid.
Beastboy stared at this slime that covered his friend's hand. "Tempest you shouldn't move, it makes the venom flow faster." Raven told him, moving out from behind the wall.
Tempest looked up to see Raven standing now beside Beastboy.
"I can't just sit here and die now can I?" he replied
"what's it matter? You're going to die anyways." She yelled back at him, running off down towards the dormitories again.
Raven ran from Tempest from one reason. She could not bear to look into a dying man's eyes.
Raven rushed back into her room and slammed the door shut and started to cry.
She did not dare to come out of her room in fear that she may find that her friend dead by now.
Tempest lay there shocked, by her actions. Then he turned to Beastboy. "She heard us talking about my sacrifice Beastboy." He said.
Beastboy nodded "that she did"
"great just great…Beastboy help me find a weapon" Tempest told him getting up
"what your hurt and all you want is a weapon"
"I'm a white demon I can with stand demon's venom now help" Tempest replied, Beastboy groaned as he help Tempest to his feet "now since she has my blade I will need to find a other weapon that I can use to brake them demons heads in with".
Beastboy shook his head as Tempest looked around the room for a decent weapon, Tempest looked back over at Beastboy "there is nothing go enough the be a weapon in this room we will have to look else where from a weapon" he told the green elf.
Beastboy did not like the idea of his friend fighting when he was near to death but the white demon had a strong spirit and Beastboy knew that he would not give up until every demon in the tower was sent to hell well every demon but Raven that is.
Beastboy put his arm around Tempest's shoulder as he helped his friend to walk as they left the living room as reddish slime falls from the roof where three large red demon eggs are hidden away awaiting their awakening.
Raven sat on her bed clinging to a picture of her mother as her fears and emotions over took her, Raven started to shiver rapidly as he low lip trembled at the thought of seen Beastboy and Tempest laying on the floor dead their blood being lapped up by the demons in the tower.
Raven closed her eyes and put the picture of her mother back down on the bed as she got up and walked over to the door she was not going to let her fool fears and emotions get the best of her not now when her friends needed her most.
Raven pushed open her bedroom door just in time to see a three demons run past her in the hallway, Raven looked back in her room to see Tempest's silver sword up against the wall.
Raven walked up to the glowing silver sword and picked it up not knowing if it was going to help her all that much but she knew as long as the sword of Tempest was glowing he was still a live but the glow was every faint.
Tempest with the help of Beastboy stepped into the long thin hallway and looked around for any signs of demons but he could not see any signs of them.
Tempest took a step forward only to stop sort of that step when he felt his heart beat harder then it normal did.
He could feel the full effect of the demon's poison now, he felt cold and sick and he wanted to throw up, Tempest brushed some sweat from his face before forcing himself to take an other step forward and like before he stopped when he felt his heart beat hard.
Tempest closed his eyes as he fell forward hitting the cold floor with a painful crash, Beastboy's eyes widened in fear as he fell to the ground beside Tempest and started to shack him trying to wake him up but it did not work.
This time Tempest did not wake up.
Beastboy jumped to his feet and look off running down the hallway hoping against all odds that he would find Raven before Tempest took his last breath.
