Voila, Chapter 12!

Chapter 12: Final Defeat
Raven hovered in the air, despair flowing through her. It couldn't end. Not like this. After all she had been through, Malchior couldn't win.

With fierce determination, she though he won't win! She closed her eyes and focused on her emotions. She heard Malchior flying towards her, and someone saving her by attaching him.

She opened an eye and saw the Titans East. Bumblebee, at the head of the group, shouted, "We'll take care of dragon dude. Do what needs to be done."

Raven burst out desperately. "Beastboy, he's--"

"Don't worry about him." Bumblebee winked. "Sparky and... (cough)... Jinx," she said the the name with disgust, "are seeing to him."

Raven turned her head and caught Cyborg and Jinx helping Beastboy up while Starfire was helping a broken-legged Robin walk. Raven didn't remember when Robin could have broken his leg but assumed he did that when he had saved Starfire from drowning in the bay.

She started to float towards them, wanting more than anything to heal her friends of their injuries. Beastboy, who saw her flying towards them, shouted, "Take care of that freakin' dragon fir-- RAVEN!"

Raven felt some force blast her to the ground. She groaned and tried to get up but couldn't. She heard a wild roar and realized that Beastboy had transformed. She slowly regained some strength, stood up, and watched the Beast attack Malchior with intense fury.

The Beast grabbed Malchior's left wing and bit into it. Malchior roared in pain before tearing the Beast away from him and throwing the Beast to the ground with incredible force.

Raven heard a familiar voice yell out, "BEASTBOY!" before realizing it was her own voice.

She watched the other Titans run towards Beastboy while the Titans East attacked harder and faster than before.

She calmed herself, while telling herself that Beastboy would be fine. She gathered herself and focused on her emotions once more. Join with me. These words echoed in every corner of her mind. All of her emotions, including Rage and an unknown emotion, joined together with Raven to form one greater being.

"Now Malchior, you will pay!" She yelled with all the emotion she could master. The lamplights between Malchior and herself burst from the energy emitted from Raven.

Malchior just laughed, his every fiber shaking from his laughter. "You think, Raven, that you can stop me. Not you and your little friends combined could ever stop me."

Raven quickly spoke, "Azarath. Metrion. Zinthos," shooting energy at the evil dragon.

Malchior, without much thought or effort, blocked it with another spell.

Oh God. Raven thought. That was one of my strongest attacks.

"Now, Raven. I think it's time I show you some of my power."

Raven watched Malchior glance at a ceratin green changling who was coming too. Too shocked to move, Raven saw a burst of energy shot out from Malchior's mouth, moving straight towards Beastboy. However injured Beastboy was, he still had enough energy to morph and dodge the attack.

"Hey," Beastboy yelled, not looking at the big picture (as usual). "That was so off. I thought you were after Raven."

Malchior smiled evilly. "Raven, shall I tell him."

Raven's eyes widened. Barely a whisper, she said, "You wouldn't dare..."

"Actually I would. I know for a fact that you... ooh, I just really want to say this... lo--"

Raven, anger radiating throughout her entire body, shot all the energy she had at Malchior. He fell over, eyes forever closed, and died. (I know, too simple. So what... I really wanted to get rid of him)

All the other titans stared at Raven, noticing that she was shaking. From anger or something else, they did not know, nor did they want to find out.

Raven slowly floated to the ground, regaining control of her emotions.

Beastboy was the first one to reach her, limping. That doesn't mean everyone was trying to get there first. Everyone else was walking warily towards Raven, not wanting to be the blunt of her anger. Beastboy asked in concern, "Rae, are you alright?"

Raven, in no mood to answer, flew off back to the tower. Beastboy's eyes followed her to the tower. He sighed before turning to the others. What he saw irked him greatly.

All the titans, inlcuding titans east, were giving him sympathetic smiles. "What are you lookin at?"

"Oh Friend Beastboy, do you not know what the dreadful Malchior was about to say before Friend Raven killed him?"

Beastboy looket at them warily. "So you guys know what he was saying?" They nodded, grinning. "Are you going to tell me?"

They shook their head with evil smirks, except for innocent Starfire. "Oh yes, I shall participate in the telling. The evil Malchior spoke of Raven's Lo--"

Robin clamped a hand over Starfire's mouth and smiled somewhat innocently. "Why don't you ... uh... ask Raven?"

Beastboy replied dully, "The day that happens is the day, you, Robin, on bended knee ask Starfire to be your girlfriend."

Cyborg grinned, "Then today is that day."

"-And," Beastboy continued, "When Cyborg tells Bumble Bee about his love for---"

Cyborg clamped his hand over Beastboy's mouth. "I don't think Bee, uh... needs to know just yet."

"Know about your love for who, Sparky?" Bee asked angrily.

Jinx walked forward with a smirk on her face. "Why me, of course."

The Titans and Titans East gazed on in wonder as Bee's face turned into different shades of red. "You," Bee asked seethingly, "love a villain?"

"Well, ha... the funny think about that is..." Cyborg backed away, sweating.

Robin intervened, bringing thre reader's and author's enjoyment to the end, saying, "Bee, Jinx is a titan. Not a villain."

"..." Beastboy gritted her teeth as she turned to Jinx. "I guess I owe you an apology."

"Hell yeah."

"Why you little----" Speedy quickly pulled bee form the scen, knowing his "righteous leader" would kill a fellow titan. Aqualad, see Mas y Menos making their way to Starfire, pulled them by the ear and said, "Well, time to go. See ya!" He ran off, following Speedy.

Beastboy, moving far away from Cyborg, commented, "That was... strange. Let's go home."

The other three nodded, and they left for the tower.

Homework is horrible. I had this chapter written a week ago. Had no time to type it up. I repeat, Homework is horrible! Oh well... i assume there are three to five chapters left. I have only so much to say, most of it... let's just say Beastboy should never mentioned Jinx to Bee. Cyborg will have his revenge. Mwahaha! okay...evil author at work. I must get a headstart for the next chapter while I still can. Gotta go!

Au Revoir,
