I do not own the Teen Titans. Well I plan on making this chapter very battle heavy for the first few chapters so if you don't like that I don't know what to tell yah. But there will still be plenty of plot mixed in with the battles so who knows tell me what you think about the way I do things in my story. I like criticism. Anyways...


Chapter 2: Why won't you stay down.

Slade walked from the shadows sliding across the ground like a zombie. No one saw him enter not even Robin. But was really concerning them was what he said. They didn't know what he meant by the gem was closer to them then they thought. No one knew what he meant, but they were going to find out.

"What are you talking about Slade." Robin yelled towards him demanding answers.

"Wouldn't you like to know." Slade said in a smart-ass tone.

"Well duh, thats why he asked. Alright thats it your going down." Kevin then dashed towards Slade and attacked with a sweeping kick. He landed the kick and followed up with another kick that sent him up in the air. Then he flew up in the sky slamming Slade down on the ground with an axe hammer. He then claspesed his hands together spread his arms apart, gathering enerygy. Kevin then sent wave after wave of energy balls hoping that would stop Slade. When the Dust cleared Slade was standing up brushing the dust off of his arms. "Damn it. Why won't you stay down!" Kevin furious that his attack did nothing.

"What can I say. You can't keep a good guy down." Slade said.

"Good guy my foot!" Cyborg charged after Slade after saying this throwing his fist at Slade. Slade mearly moved out of the way of the attack and kicked Cyborg in the back. Beast Boy then charged after Slade in the form of a bear. Beast Boy flung one of his claws at Slade but Slade was able to roll out of the way. Starfire then flew in blasting at him with her laser eyes. Slade started to do back flips dodging the laser beam following him on the ground. He then jumped up and threw a fire wave at Starfire. Starfire was able to protect herself but she was slammed to the ground.

Robin came back at Slade with full force using every martial art technique he could use, but Slade was able to dodge his attacks and counter attack with his own.

"Come Robin you can do better than that." Slade said looking over Robin.

"Shut up!" Rpbin jumped back up and swung his staff, but Slade jumped out of the way.

"You should watch you back." Kevin then punched Slade in the back sending him flying towards the ground. "Now!" Kevin yelled as Cyborg jumped in the air and slammed Slade to the ground. Beast Boy then turned into a gorilla and flung Slade towrds a wall. Starfire then flung Starbolts as Robin threw grenades.

"Did we get him?" Beast Boy changing back to his normal form. The dust cleared and Slade started to get up.

"Impressive but still lacking." Slade had a smile on his face. You couldn't see it, but you could tell he was enjoying every momment of this. Slade then went on the offensive knocking out Beast Boy with a clothesline, and swinging a kick at Cyborg knocking the metal Titan down as well. He then flew towards Strfire punching her towards the ground as he then went after Kevin. Kevin threw out a punch to try and defend himself but Slade moved so fast he didn't see him as he was punched directly in the gut. Kevin lost all of his breath as he fell to the ground. Slade then dashed towards Robin as he then slammed Robin to the ground with a punch to the face.

"Man he's fast." Kevin said coughing trying to gather his breath.

"You know what I like about working for someone else. It allows me to be more hands on." He then lifted his hand and started to gather flames in his hands. Robin was able to pull up his cape and block the heat from the blast. Kevin then threw another energy ball catching Slade in the back. He slid a few feet but didn't fall down.

"You will not hurt anyone. I won't let you." Kevin said as he stood up.

"And you think you can stop me." Slade said turning to face him.

"I know I can." He then grounded himself and clasped his hands together. He started to gather energy, but he was gathering a lot more than normal. The only other time he did this was the last battle with Cinder Block. Slade then dashed towards Kevin to attcak. "Too late Slade." He then realeased the energy he gathered at Slade. Everyone waited to see if that was enough to stop Slade, but to no avail. The dust cleared and Slade was still standing.

"Quite Impressive. But you need more than fancy tricks to beat me. Kevin collapsed to the ground almost out of energy. He could'nt keep this up, not for long. Slade then lifted his hand and sent energy waves towards all the Titans. These waves the wrapped around the Titans crushing them. The Titans were losing badly, every attack they made seemed to just bounce off of Slade. Nothing worked, just then a giant ston block drilled Slade sending him against the wall. Raven then flew down from the top of the stone hand.

"Raven!" Everyone yelled as they were released from the enrgies grasp. Slade then busted through the stone wall that Raven sent at him.

"You are quite a nuisance." Slade then raised his hand, but did not attack.

"What did your little master tell you not to hurt his precious 'gem'." Raven said as she walked towards Slade.

"You were lucky this time. Don't count on being so lucky next time." Slade then started to melt through the ground but Raven stopped him with her powers.

"Now I have a little message for your master." She then lifted him out of the ground. "You tell him I will not help him, ever. And he will have to kill me first." Raven Then flung Slade into wall after wall. She then lifted him into the air and took a bunch of boulders and slammed them into Slade all at once. "Tell him I'm not afraid of him anymore."

"You may not be afraid of him. But who is afraid of you." Slade then melted through the floor as Raven looked behind her as everyone was stunned at what Raven just did.


All the Titans were back at the Tower just sitting down as Raven started to explain everything to them. About the symbol and about her past, and about the prophecy.

"The Mark of Scath is actually the symbol for Trigon." Raven told everyone. Everyone was surprised at this.

"His evil is even known from my home planet." Starfire said.

"That's not all. He's also my father." Everyone was even more stunned at this remark.

"If you ask me, you have one crapy father." Kevin said.

"Also there is a prophecy about me. They said when I was born I was to do evil things. That one day I was to let Trigon into this world. But I don't want to."

"Don't worry as long as we are here nothing will happen to you or the world." Kevin said hoping that would comfort her.

"Yes we will help you not matter what it takes." Starfire said with a smile. Everyone then got up from the couch and looked out the window.

"Don't worry Raven your friends are here to help you no matter what." Robin said as the sun started to rise at the start of a new day.


Well Thats the end of that chapter. I didn't get any reviews sadly. Now I feel alone. But anyway the next chapter is gonna skip a few weeks ahead to get to the good stuff see you all then.
