Skyton's fists flashed, his face moving in and out of focus. Nightwing broke a sweat trying to keep up with the unending barrage of attacks. Skyton kept using his wings to keep his balance and throw Nightwing off. Raven sat on the roof, oblivious to the happenings below her. He fiddled with her powers, attempting different tricks while nothing came of it. She could summon the darkness within her. She was no longer a daemon; she was a daemon from heaven. Meanwhile down below, Skyton was the angel from hell and Nightwing knew it.

Grasping onto the biggest object possible, Nightwing hurled himself behind it as Skyton released a cloud of white mist into the air. Nightwing coughed and ran from the room. Skyton stared after him, hatred boiling thick within him.

Slowly, Skyton flew to the top of the titan's tower and sat next to Raven. She was solemn, lying back against a post, waiting for him. He had nothing to say and she preferred it that way.

A gust of wind knocked over a garbage can,

A old tree fell and crushed a sapling,

Two heroes shared an everlasting moment atop their home, waiting for what was to come. They didn't have to wait long.

An explosion downtown sent a fiery oil tanker straight for Raven, She ducked to the right and ran off the edge of the building, Skyton grabbing her waist and taking off.

Downtown was in flames when Skyton arrived with Raven under him. Beasts of all sizes passed trough a large porthole, roaring and screeching as they terrorized the city. Raven's eyes looked toward the porthole where Slade was casting a beam of red light into the schism between worlds. Skyton dropped Raven down to the square below and she looked the beast in front of her in the eye before killing it with a swift move.

The other creatures halted and looked toward her. She was in their midst, awaiting their judgment. One of them took a knee before her, soon followed by the hellish army in its entirety. Slade ceased his casting and the door to hell closed. He caught her eye sneering at her with nothing but contempt.

One of the creatures walked up behind her, Skyton could only call it a wisp of smoke, but it indeed had a voice and it whispered into Raven's ear, "My queen."

Raven whirled around and the creatures stormed past her into the city, and the world beyond. Raven looked up at Skyton and saw one of the larger daemons jump from the street below and tackled Skyton from the sky. Raven began to rush to his air but was stopped when Slade grabbed her from behind. She struggled to free herself, hitting him it the groin.

Again the daemons halted and chanted in unison, their voices making an eerie nasal tone, "Do not attack the king, great one."

Slade murmured into Raven's ear, "Come wife, we have guests at home."

"Get of me you fucker, didn't Nightwing humble you at all!" Raven cried as she struggled, refusing to recognize the futility of this battle.

Raven's eyes widened as Slade dragged her off, the porthole was reopened… The last thing she could see before she was thrown through into the fiery abyss was Skyton being buried under countless amounts of flesh eating creatures as he fought for his life.
