Disclaimer: I do not own Teen Titans

'his castle once stood under the city you now sit upon not England, but beware what you find may not be what you would expect' the dragons words flew through Robins mind as he, and the Titans continued their search. They were 350 feet under the city when they first picked up Raven signal and are now well over 1,000 feet below the surface.

"Robin, this is crazy dude, how far down can he be?" Beast Boy asked but Robin frowned "3,568 feet." Cyborg responded

"Dude it's so hot in here! And my legs are killing me!" Beast Boy whined but then a bright blue glow caught his eye and it was straight ahead "Uh…do you guys see that, or is the heat just getting to me?" but they all nodded dumbly transfixed by the rift. Once they were mere steps from it a shadowy form of a man appears before them, his features were blurred and indistinguishable.

"Beware those who enter the rift." It said its voice was like nails on a chalkboard, which made them wince

"What is beyond the rift?" Robin asked

"The realm of Vantar, were his powers are great even when encase within the stone of his eternal prison." The form replied unknowing that Vantar is free

"But he is no longer within the stone tomb that held him." Starfire told the shadow man and it seemed shocked by this information but then disappeared

"Well at least we don't have to walk anymore." Beast Boy said relieved but Robin wasn't as pleased as Beast Boy. They all looked at each other before walking into the rift.

-Temple of Dark Camelot-

Vantar relaxed into his chair and looked down to the sleeping girl, a frown upon his face as his hand skimmed the naked girl's skin lightly.

'They are coming, they have ignored the old man's warning, I wonder what I should reveal?' he toyed around with many ideas in his head but could feel the titans growing nearer so he decided to prepare for them, 'pathetic mortals….'

-Outside the temple-

Beast Boy was freaking out about the temple's location being rather…hot "Who actually builds a temple surrounded by LAVA?" he shouts

"Someone who discourages visitors." Robin said darkly

"Well whatever the reason only two of us can fly so, Robin and I are gonna need a lift." Cyborg stated as Starfire grasped Robin and started flying toward the temple while Beast Boy turned into a Pteranodon and grabbed Cyborg and then took off to catch up with Starfire. Once they landed on the steps they prepared to fight instantly but after a few moments they realized that no one was coming.

They quickly walked in the massive temple; they walked through the main hallway seeing pieces of art that are beautiful yet horrifying. Then they reached the end of the hallway where two giant doors stood but right next to the door was a massive painting of a black bird flying toward the sun, the earth behind the bird.

"What is this about?" Starfire asked

"It is a picture of a prophecy." A voice said from the doorway, all four of them stared right at Vantar. He wore ancient armor from the knights of medieval England but it had no helmet and it was covered in runes.

"Vantar! Give Raven back to us!" Robin yelled but this call fell upon deaf ears. Vantar moved like lightning and grabbed Starfire's hair and pulled her head back and before she could react he gave her a kiss, his tongue dipping into her mouth for but a moment then he let go and she fell to the ground like a sac of bricks. Robin, Beast Boy, and Cyborg's mouths were wide open.

"You bastard!" Robin yelled and quickly went for a round-house kick to the back his head but he disappeared and reappeared back where he started from, Starfire lay at his feet as well.

"It is much easier to enslave a girl without magical powers, one kiss and it is done." Vantar said darkly smiling evilly "But Robin I am a sporting man I'll give you one chance to save them both." Vantar said darkly
