Chapter 8

Disclaimer: I do not own Teen Titans or any DC universe character I only claim my own character Wize in this great story.

"He's stabilizing…" Was all Wize heard before he shot his eyes open staring at Cyborg, and Robin staring down at him. He remembers the battle they had with Nightmare and quickly sits up only to feel the sting of his injuries as he clings to his side." Easy! If you keep moving like that you're going to reopen your wounds!" Robin said attempting to calm the frantic boy down."

Glancing over to the bed next to him, he see's Raven asleep next to him with black veins spreading across her body with star fire looking back at him next to her bed. He quickly got off the bed ignoring his pain and walked over to young spell maidens bed." Hey! I said take it easy!"

"Quiet…I need to concentrate.." Wize said placing his hand on her forehead. A Light glow of blue began to emerge from his hand as he spoke silently under his breath in tongue that they could not understand. The Black Veins on Ravens skin disappeared as she suddenly gasped for air, with a small dark mist leaving her mouth as she gasped. Quickly taking notice of the mist Wize grabbed the mist in his glowing hand.

" You have been found wanting…" He said with rage as he crushed it in his hand and with a sudden bright light the mist was no more and Raven Returned to sleep. He let out a light sign as he sat down in a nearby chair." How long was I out?" He asked scratching the hair on his chin." So far 2 hour's… we almost lost you." Cyborg said bringing his arm scanner up to Wize to check his vitals." You seem fine now."

" Where's BB?" Wize said looking around the room then he spotted beast boy laying in a bed across from Ravens." How's he holding up…" he shifted uncomfortably as he revised his question." He doesn't wish to speak. On the way back here all he could mutter was, Darkness…" Star Fire said handing Wize a small cup of water.

The water was refreshing. He didn't know if it was the blood loss or the guilt that was making him thirsty, but either way he welcomed the drink." Good…at least he's still alive."

Wize got up from his chair putting back on his coat and mask, and began to make his way out the door before Robin intervened." We need to talk.."

"Out of my way…" Both stared each other down coldly." Im not letting you go out there to get yourself killed."

" If I don't go out there now and stop him, more people are going to die.." Wize said clenching his teeth with his rising frustration." We need to make a plan; Raven and Beast boy are out of commission and we all nearly died today…" said Robin as he glared at Wize." I don't think you understand…"

" I understand that we couldn't even get a good hit off this guy at our full strength, how do you think were going to fair when were down half our strength, we need to cut our losses a prepare for the next encounter!" Rabin interrupted in anger." Fine you do that, ill go alone.." Wize stated as he tried with all his might to keep his anger in check.

" YOUR part of this TEAM now Wize, and your going to fallow my order's!" Robin said taking a step closer to Wize, and was about to regret it.

Wize took ahold of Robins collar on his red vest then pined him on the way with his eyes glowing like fire." Do you not understand! Every minute, no every second that monster is devouring the ethereal energy within living creature in the city and continues to get stronger! AND I HAVE THE ONLY THING THAT CAN KILL IT!" Wize clenched his teeth as he let Robin free, now rubbing his temples in stress of the situation.

" Wait a minute… you know what that thing is?" Robin said catching his breath.

" Yeah…his name is Zell one of the old leader's of the fallen angels…." Wize said returning to his seat next to Ravens bed.

" Fallen angels? You mean were dealing with a demon?" Cyborg said abit skeptical.

" Not just any old demon, one of the worst of the worst... The leaders of the Rebellion were 4 powerful demons that challenge the powers of Heaven. Of course they were defeated and cast down to the earth. They have lost the battle of Heaven but the war had just begun. They began to attack humans and enslave them. So the Ancient of days sent his mighty Angels of power to bless a group of Human's to fight against the Demons, but to one family he gave the power of Awe. By the blessing of the 4 Angels of power, Michael's Courage, Raphael's, knowledge, Gabriel's voice, Urial's endurance the first Servant of the Ancient of days was born, and with the threat of the power of on high the 4 demons began to fight amongst themselves and eventually scattered to fight by themselves. Each of the 5 family's bless by the heavens. Locke, Mason, Goddrict, Draco, and Sheppard defeated the power of the 4 demons and sealed them away. It is the duty of the Servant of the Ancient of days and his family to keep the seals, but unfortunately one of the seal's was broken…" Wize finished his story looking down to his feet with a heavy heart.

" So, how do we stop him?" Wize jumped in startled to see Raven awake." Glad your awake. How do you feel?" Wize said standing up to face her eye to eye.

" I've been better." Raven said as Wize helped her to her feet." Well to answer your question from before…" Wize raised his hand up then from a bright light immerged a sword." This is the sword of Righteousness, The sword Michael granted my ancestors to fight the demons. If I strike him with this sword then it will vanquish him back to the realm he was sealed in." Wize said making the sword disappear yet again with a burst fire.

" But we need to wait, and we need to prepare for when zell returns. I may not know about where your coming from Wize but I know that you going to need our help.." Stated Robin, both He and Wize now calmed by the knowledge of the situation.

" Fine…I understand, and sorry for actions. Its just abit personal, you know…" Wize said apologetically holding out his hand to Robin." Its fine.. I do understand." Robin said Robin said shaking his hand. The Titans Rested and awaited their next encounter with Zell the nightmare, and the story begins to unfold of Wize's mysterious past.
