Chapter 4: Dark Angel, the worst fears relived-000-
"No...no...this can't b-be true..." Starfire muttered. Right in front of her was a dark creature. It has powerful looking fangs and dark red wings. It looked almost like an angel, but totally black and hideous. With the exception fangs, of course. Robin was hovering above the ground and was covered in a black aura. He was sweating profusely and seems to be in a lot of pain. The dark creature was sucking in something from him, and each moment, Robin turned paler.
She allowed the pieces of china to slip and fall from her hands as she screamed. Powering her starbolt, which seemed like the only thing she could do at this point of time, she prepared to aim and shoot at the dark creature when-

Starfire's scream certainly alerted the rest of the Titans from their activities. Dropping whatever they had on hand, they rushed to Robin's room.
They were shocked at the sight they saw. Beast boy and Cyborg was disgusted. Only Raven kept her cool.
She brought a chunk of metal from the door forward quickly, to block off Starfire attack. She stopped the starbolt from reaching the creature just in time, except that the door was well, not quite as prefect anymore.

They gasped. "Raven! What are you doing! Let me destroy the monster and save Robin!" Starfire squealed, tears pouring from her beautiful, emerald eyes.
Raven sighed. And was made to explain. 'Why don't these people read more, and talk less? Especially Beast boy!' she thought.
"I have read about these creatures, they are known as dark angels, dark creatures that prowl the night. They are evil and cunning and very smart. They can assume the forms of people they kill."
"How do they kill their victims?" asked Starfire asked impatiently, afraid that Robin may die any moment now.
Raven sighed again and replied.
"They make people relive their worst fears. It can be as scary as an imaginary bed monster underneath your bed, to anything as scary as all the 'adventures' we had, put together. I shudder to think what kind of fears Robin have..." Raven said, pausing to look at her leader, convulsing in mid-air.
"How do we defeat it then? And...hold on, why doesn't it attack us?"
Beast boy asked, voicing out everyone's question, and earning furious nods from the head, from non-other then Starfire.
Raven gritted her teeth.
"Let me finish!" she growled in her most dangerous voice ever, annoyed at the fact she always get interrupted. After seeing Beast Boy flinch, however, she softened and replied.
"Although they are dark creatures, they have a soul pact. The must always follow the rules of the dark magic. They are made not to ever break a promise made by them. And they will not attack unless the enemy attacks first. It will defend itself for the first time before attack full force. And it sucks all the power you have. See the huge sapphire necklace around its neck?" Raven asked, pointing towards the creature's neck.
Cyborg nodded and asked. "Is it used to contain the power they get from their victims?"
"Yes, and it's about half filled now...anyway, it will suck all the power away and leaving their victim soulless to live in fear of their own dreams. In many cases, even victims who are rescued from their clutches turns mad or simply, refuses to talk to anyone."
"So what do we have to do?"
Starfire asked, the fire in her eyes, determined to rescue Robin from the demon's clutches.
"We wait, and think of a plan, but we have to do it fast, really fast."
