Chapter 29

KLARION THE WITCH BOY

Klarion smirked the team circling around him, Artemis had an arrow in her bow and the string pulled back. Nightwing gripped his escrima sticks tightly, Barbara has batarangs in each hand glaring at him. Rocket, Wondergirl and Miss Martian hovered over the rest staring down at Klarion. Aqualad pulled out his water bearers forming two blades made of hard water.

"Klarion, surrender or retreat you're clearly outnumbered" Aqualad offered the lord of chaos a way out, he could only chuckle at the statement.

"Come on, you all know you're clearly outmatched TEEKL NOW!" The cat turned into a ferocious beast and leaped at Lagoon Boy and Beast Boy a blue energy bubble forms around them blocking the attack.

"Thanks Rocket" the younger boy thanked her, she offered him a wink but was soon blasted out of the air.

"Kid take him down, Superboy handle Teekl!" Nightwing commanded, Conner landed near the cat punching him away. The familiar roared tackling the kryptonian hybrid.

"CONNER!" M'gann telekinetically lifts machines and fling them at Teekl. Kid Flash ran at incredible speeds to slam his fist into Klarion's face only for red glowing chains to wrap around his legs and stop him short. They begin dragging him through the boardwalk.

"I got your back Baywatch" Artemis slides in shooting an arrow at Klarion, he stops it in mid air with a flick of his wrist.

"That the best you can do?" He asked mockingly.

"Ekam noiralk a tengam" Zatanna chanted her voice echoing throughout the park, suddenly all metal objects began to tremble and lunge at him.

"I'm sick of your baby magic, tcerider reh nwo lleps" Klarion rolled his eyes as he spoke those words. Zatanna began to panic seeing the large objects switch direction and fly at her.

"ETATIVEL!" She began to fly away but an arcade machine slams into her back sending her crashing into the boardwalk. Klarion yelled feeling a sharp pain in the back of his neck, he turned seeing Bumblebee flying around him she began shooting at him rapidly.

"ENOUGH!" He raises his hand knocking her away with a blast of pure magical energy, suddenly a golden lasso wrapped around his wrist. Donna smiled pulling him in, he sent an energy blast at her stomach knocking her into the boardwalk. He quickly pulls the magic lasso off him flinging it away carelessly.

"I've yet to see anything impressive" He chuckled suddenly a wave of water is sent his way, he makes a red energy barrier to block it.

"TAKE THIS" Tula sends a charged up blast of electrified hardened water.

"I SUMMON THE POWER OF THE TEMPEST!" Garth's tattoos began to glow water rose from the ocean spinning at an incredible speed and attacking Klarion's barrier.

Meanwhile Lagoon Boy puffed up and tried to overwhelm Teekl leading to the tiger like beast to sink his teeth into the Atlantean's leg. La'gaan let out a pain filled shriek.

"GET OFF OF HIM!" Beast Boy turned into a gorilla pulling Teekl off he flung him through the air where Superboy was able to punch him witj a sicking crack.

Aqualad held onto the barrier sending electricity through it.

"You're Atlantean sorcery can't stand up to a lord of chaos" Klarion bragged sending a shockwave that sent everyone flying.

"This is not good" Nightwing informed Artemis as she helped Wally out of the hole.

"Bumblebee, Lagoon Boy, Wondergirl and Zatanna are all out for the count.

"He's to strong, we need to think of another way to beat him" Artemis stated. Batgirl and Robin looked at each other nodding, she threw a hand full of smoke pellets at the witch boy causing a cloud of smoke to cover them.

"I think they just gave me a good idea" The bat proteges entered the smoke cloud attacking him with a mix of punches, kicks and escrima stick bashes.

"YOU'RE NOT PLAYING FAIR!" He blast them all away.

"YOU NEED TO RELAX" M'gann glared her eyes glowing green.

"Attempting mind tricks martian?" Klarion summoned a huge flaming snake.

"M'GANN MOVE!" She screamed as the flaming tail struck her, she crashed into the boardwalk unconscious.

"Aqualad, I'm not seeing a way out of this" Wally informed his leader. Superboy charged at Klarion enraged, Klarion smirked pulling a handful of red dust out of a pouch. He blew the dust into Superboy's face causing him to topple over coughing.

"What is this stuff" Conner coughed the dust glowing red, his eyes roll to the back of his head he fell over falling unconscious.

"He took out Supes we are screwed" Wally said completely losing his nerve.

"Not quite yet" A powerful voice broke through the area.

"Uh oh" Klarion's eyes widened seeing a golden glow starts growing, a ankh forms within the glow. Dr Fate slowly flies out, his eyes piercing into Klarion's.

"YOU ARE SUCH A BUZZKILL NABU" He screamed, Teekl shrank down and jumped into Klarion's arms. He jumped through a red portal letting it disappear as he passes through.

"WHERE THE HELL WERE YOU!?" Kid Flash screamed at Dr Fate.

"I received news of Klarion's arrival recently" Wally helped Dick up.

"Atleast you got here, we have no idea what he was even doing here" Nightwinh said rubbing the back of his head.

"Well it's over now, we need to get everyone some medical attention" Artemis declared looking at her injured teammates.

MOUNT JUSTICE

Garfield was hugging M'gann cheerfully, happy that she was okay. Robin patted Donna's back and smirked at her, she leaned into him. Mal gave Karen a big hug kissing her passionately. Tula and Garth held each other.

"You okay Z?" Artemis asked brushing some hair out of Zatanna's face. Zatanna almost melted in her touch, she kissed her girlfriend's cheek.

"You're adorable for worrying but I'll be fine, I've taken worse hits" Artemis captured Zatanna's lips in a deep kiss. Wally turned around seeing Aqualad and Nightwing talking.

"La'gaan's leg is injured he'll need time before it's healed fully. As for Conner I have no idea what Klarion hit him with" Kaldur said sadly.

"Kryptonians are vulnerable to three things red solar radiation, kryptonite and magic regardless I'm sure he'll be okay" Dick responded, he started to think about the possibilities when arms wrapped around his waist. A chin leaning on his shoulder.

"Kid, what are you doing?" Dick asked slightly amused.

"Nothing" Wally smiled eyes filled with mischief.

"I should check on the others" Kaldur said making his way from the younger heros.

"I think that was enough excitement for one day" Wally nuzzled his face into Dick's neck.

"You can't exactly blame me for working this time" Dick chuckled as Wally rolled his eyes.

"Whatever, you staying over tonight?" Wally asked hope rising in his voice.

"Can't I have a paper due and I have to help Robin with his trig homework"Dick listed his task.

"Ugh, I'm graduating next year" Wally bragged.

"Lucky you" Dick crossed his arms, he turned around giving Wally a peck on the cheek.

THAT NIGHT

Conner was walking down the halls, his face void of emotion.

"Conner, hey I was just coming to check on you" M'gann smiled, suddenly she is pulled into a passionate, lust filled kiss. She's aggressively pushed into a wall, a hand groping her body.

"Wait hold on a minute, what brought this on" M'gann asked through heavy breaths.

"Maybe I just want you" Conner whispered in her ear. She shivered allowing him to ravage her neck, she could barely contain the moans coming from her mouth. She closed her eyes getting lost in the pleasure. Unknown to both of them glowing red veins formed over his face and his blue eyes began to turn red.
