Mike: Well…new chapter. I can't think of anything to say…so…I own nothing, enjoy!


Siren stared at HeavenDemon coldly, and laughed. "It sure is nice of you to pay me visit, you know? I've been feeling unloved, to tell you the truth."

HeavenDemon smiled. "Is that so? Well then, this may cheer you up. I'm not the only person who felt like paying you a visit. Now then, where did he run off to…?"

A large green wolf lept from the shadows, and collided with Siren, knocking her against a wall. HeavenDemon laughed, and ran his fingers through his hair. "Oh…there he is."

Beast Boy returned to his human form, as Siren rose to her feet. She eyed Beast Boy carefully, and chuckled. "So, my little Garfield has come back-" She was cut off, as Beast Boy's fist slammed into her stomach. He looked directly into her eyes, smiling brightly.

"Don't talk," he said cheerfully, "Alright?"

Siren stumbled backwards, shocked. Suddenly, she noticed HeavenDemon was behind her. He grabbed her, restraining her arms. Siren chuckled slightly. "That's the kind of thing Insanity would do, you know?"

HeavenDemon laughed out loud. "Well, maybe. But we didn't come here to play with you, Siren. No more using other people as tools in your sick little games. It ends now."

At this time, Siren realized that Beast Boy was holding a steak. She had just enough time to mutter; "Oh, f-" Before he drove it into her heart.

(Titans Tower, Centara's Room)

Centara was sitting cross-legged in the center of the room, her eyes shut. She concentrated hard, searching all of Azarath for a trace of Artimis' soul. Finally, her eyes shot open. "Ha! Found him!" At this same moment, her window flew open, and she whirled around, startled. HeavenDemon jumped through followed by Beast Boy. "Uh…not that I'm not always glad to see you guys…but why did you just come through my window?"

HeavenDemon looked embarrassed. "Um…we both forgot to unlock our windows."

Centara raised an eyebrow. "What were you doing out there, anyway."

Beast Boy looked uneasy. "Killing Siren," he said quickly. "So anyway, you find the Well?"

Centara stared at HeavenDemon and Beast Boy, then laughed. "I guess that's one less thing to worry about. And yes, I did actually find the Well. Now, we just gotta worry about how we're going to get him in it…"

(Las Vegas, Legion of Darkness Hideout, Basement)

Dusk's eyes shot open, and he turned to look at Artimis. "Yo, Arty, she found it."

Artimis looked surprised. "Really now? She always was gifted in empathy, but who knew she could find my soul when it's not in my body? This is going to make things rather interesting. It's more fun when they have a fighting chance."

Dunk chuckled. "Isn't it, though? Oh, and by the way, Siren's dead."

Artimis blinked. "Dusk…" he began calmly, "Don't you think these are the kind of things that you should tell me when they happen?"

Dusk scratched the back of his head, a grin on his face. "Sorry boss man, won't happen again. Tell ya what…" He smiled brightly. "How about I go give them a taste of things to come? I know the stage isn't set for the final scene just yet…but we have to go through a few more acts to get there, huh?"

Artimis chuckled. "You do know how I love theater metaphors…alright, old friend. Go have yourself some fun. But do NOT get killed, alright? One actor has already left the stage early, and I don't want that to happen again." He paused for a moment. "Damn, those theater metaphors are contagious, aren't they?"

Dusk's smile grew brighter, as he leaned on his walking stick, and rose to his feet. "Don't you worry, Arty." He reached into his cloak with his left hand, and pulled out a small black book. He raised his staff in his right hand, and laughed loudly. "I'm going to show those kids Hell!" He disappeared in a flash of black smoke, his laughter still echoing.

(Titans Tower, HeavenDemon's Room)

HeavenDemon sat on his bed, and sighed. "Yo, Insanity?"

Insanity popped into existence on HeavenDemon's desk. "What's on your mind, boy scout?"

HeavenDemon sighed again. "Look, I'm going to get straight to the point. You're a sick, sick guy." Insanity nodded, as HeavenDemon went on. "But…we don't have to torture each other, do we? I mean, we're stuck with each other, so we might as well make it bearable for the both of us. Just think about it."

Insanity considered this. "Hmm…I suppose you have a point. Eh, alright, for now. Not enemies, boy scout?"

HeavenDemon nodded, grinning sarcastically. "Not enemies."

At this moment, there was a knock on the door. HeavenDemon rose to his feet, and opened. He gasped, finding himself face to face with Starfire. He quickly looked behind himself, to see that Insanity had retreated into his mirror. He made it a point to thank him later, then turned back to Starfire. "Hey, uh, Starfire. Is there…something I can help you with?" He gasped again, has Starfire grabbed him in one of here trademark bone crushing hugs.

"I…am glad to see that you are back to your old self." She said, holding back tears. She released him. "I do not blame you for what happened, and in time, neither will Robin. Are we…friends?"

HeavenDemon was speechless. "Fri…friends." He smiled brightly. "Of course we're friends, Starfire."

Starfire smiled…and the roof exploded.

The next few moments were a blur for all 7 of the Titans, but the soon all found themselves on the ground outside the Tower. Cyborg was the first to rise to his feet, who screamed; "Ahhhhh! Everybody, look at the Tower!"

The other six Titans looked up, to see that the entire top half of the Tower had been destroyed. An insane cackling could be heard, and Dusk appeared in front of the Titans in a flash of black smoke. "Did I do that? Looks like I got…carried away." He laughed again, his insane laughter seeming to ring throughout the heavens.


Mike: Whatcha think? Let me know, everybody! Peace!
