Chapter 6: Demon Raven
The whole world held its breath as Trigon appeared again and this time he had someone with him. I could tell who that long, purple black hair and necklace belong to on miles way. It was Raven! Raven had joined her father's side and based on what her face looked like, she had embraced her demonic side too.
"What do we do?" Diana asked unsure as we flew towards them. "She joined him…! The world's only hope joined him and is attacking the city with him!"
"I know…!" I said, feeling slightly panic. Raven was with him… He had won her over somehow and now we had two strong demons to fight, only that the world would underestimate one off them because of her size. She looked their way as they flew closer with the plane and raised her hand.
"Dodge!" Everyone screamed at Batman who did in the nick of time. One second slower and that laser beam would have crushed them to pieces. Trigon's attention turned to the target his daughter attacked and when he recognized the plane and the mark on the side, he grinned.
"Well if it isn't the traitors who decided to join the party. What do you think you can do, humans and alien? You were no match for me last time and I got Raven with me this time!" He laughed as he loaded himself like he had done on Themyscira and a red light shot out from his body and evened the city with the ground and it continued quiet far and destroyed everything in it's way. Raven looked worried at it but then got a cold expression again.
"Raven!" She winched as Damien screamed her name through the speakers of the plane. "Stop this madness! Think of all the people! Of this world!"
"I'm!" She shouted back. "Humans are what's destroying this world! Humans are making it suffer and stops it from healing itself! Please, just stop fighting back!"
"She think she's doing the right think…" Superman mumbled and Damien nodded.
"Yes… He have somehow convinced her that Earth is better off without humans."
"So what do we do? You are the boss." Diana asked and looked at Damien.
"I will go out there and try to talk senses to her. We need her to stop him. The rest of you, stop the minions." They nodded and I left the plane.
Everything that happened after that happened so fast. Damien had went to talk to Raven and succeeded in getting contact with her and almost won her back over when her father noticed what was going on and attacked him. And now he were lying unconscious on the ground with Raven next to him, staring blank at him as her father growled angry.
"Damien..." Raven whispered and something in the air around her changed. She stared at him, at his unconscious figure, and then she glanced at her father before starting to let out tiny cries that grew in strength and went from sobbing's and shrieks to full out pained screams and cries. But they sounded more and more demonic...! As the air got more tense, a purple light appeared underneath her, like a magical circle, and her now long hair slowly rose up in the air, grew even further and her magic gave me goosebumps like never before. And I felt... scared! Just by watching her magic load up...! She gave out loud cries with tears running down her cheeks and they rose in the air as they left her face and her necklace rose too from her chest and suddenly she screamed out a cry and her head whipped backwards and the light got stronger. The ground around her cracked and the force of her magic lifted up stones as well and I quickly jumped backwards in the form of a tiger. As she continued to cry out, a huge magic circle appeared over her head as well and the stones shot out in every direction. Such power...!
As her magic went darker, the more she sounded like a howling sad demon and when it finally started to ease, I could see the change. She had four eyes, her hair were even longer than before and over one side of her face she had like a crack from the top of her eye to underneath the second. She stared up at her father and in a lightning speed, she charged towards him and even sent him stumbling backwards.
"Raven!" He growled. "Get back to your senses, child!" But she didn't hear him, she kept attacking him and I rushed forward to Damien.
"Come on, please wake up!" I checked his pulse. He still had one, even thought it was really weak. I started to do CPR and hoped it would get him going as I kept an eye on the two fighting demons before me. Trigon were really struggling but at the same moment that Damien took a gasping breath and Raven looked our way, Trigon captured her in a bubble. She gasped and tried to fight it but soon went limb and fell asleep.
"Raven!" Damien screamed and grimaced and Trigon stumbled up, watching him and then his daughter.
"It seems attacking you was a very bad idea... Damn it! You ruined everything!" Damien glared up at Trigon and slowly rose and I did my best to support him. Cyborg and Starfire came up by our side and our eyes all wandered to the sleeping Raven in the magical bubble. "It seems like I will have to put this world to an end myself, and this time I will start with you!" He screamed angry and pointed his hand at them.
"Damien!" Wonder Woman called out as the magic shot off and she could only stop and gasp as the magic hit the group. "No… NO!" She covered her mouth but stared chocked at the event before her when she saw that they were unharmed. Trigon took a step back in surprise and then Damien looked at mark glowing on his arm.
"This… This is Raven's protection charm!" He said as it faded. "It activated now when she can't protect us herself!" The others looked at their marks and then up at the father and daughter. "We need to get to her…! If we don't do it now, we don't know where he will take her! This might be our only chance!" They nodded and made a group high five. Cyborg sent out the information about what they were going to do: Distract Trigon so that Damien could reach Raven. And that we might only get one chance.
"Titans, go!"
I'm sorry for the delay! Much has been going on and I have had zero motivation to write!
I don't know when the next chapter will be out but if the demand for another chapter, I will do my best! If you want more, please do tell through a review! That can be the difference between me writing more and not! ^^
