Teen Titans: Season 6

by Matthaios91

*Plz read info on my profile 1st* I planned this with enjoyment but not much confidence for the fans in general. Meaning, I will love this (most of it at least) because it is my creation-ish. Season 6 will be mainly for me. This new character being implemented is why I wanted to do this in the 1st place. This...is how they all meet our new hero ... or IS he a hero?

6. S6E6: The Darkest Illusion - Part 2

::: Season 6 :::

:: Episode 6 :: The Darkest Illusion - Part II ::

Mumbo is back home, counting all the money and organizing the 'high valued' goods he had stolen. Once he is finished, he tries to take off his mask and change his clothes, but they will not come off. He can't change back to normal with his 'magical' clothes and mask on. Confused, he starts asking himself, "What's going on here?!" He tries to use his magic to change back, but that doesn't work either. Getting frustrated, he yells up in the air, "WHY CAN'T I CHANGE BACK?!" The room gets dark, with red tinted lighting. A dark dimensional hole appears in the ground as a teen in a full-body, red robe, appears. His face is fully covered by his hood, except her mouth and chin:

-Mumbo:You! What have you done, why can't I change back, Jesse?!

-Jesse:Oh, come now Mumbo. You should've known making a deal with us would have SOME type of consequence. I mean, why should I give, if I can't take? What fun would that be for me?!

-Mumbo:What can I do?! How do I fix THIS?!

-Jesse:You can't. You may have dark, magical powers, but even an 'amazing' magician such as yourself, can't break the sea placed on you. When you agreed to this, you forgot to read the fine print … and believe me, it was VERY fine indeed. You wanted to know magic, so the Titans no longer mocked you. So you may be taken… a little more seriously. Every Up, has its down. I hope you like that suit, because you will be wearing it for a while! Ahahahaha…

-Mumbo:WAIT!

Jesse heads back into the portal from where he came, laughing all the way back down. Mumbo now sits at his desk. He's frustrated about what has happened, and instantly regrets making the deal.

Meanwhile, the Teen Titans are trying to figure out how to get out of the never ending, traumatic nightmare. Cyborg sees himself in Gotham city now. A few blocks away, he can see explosions going off, and cars being flipped over. He runs down to see what's going on. In the smoke, Cyborg sees someone with a similar figure to his own. When the figure walks out of the smoke, Cyborg notices that it's a version of him, but with the remaining human parts replaced with robot parts. The remaining members of the Titans East come in, attacking the fully-robotic Cyborg. With them, is Beast Boy, who looks a few years older. The Titans begin the onslaught on robot Cyborg. Unfazed, he starts knocking them around with ease. Beast Boy, as a bear, jumps onto the back of Cyborg, than gets ripped off and thrown into a building. He comes back out as a tiger, tackles Cyborg, and begins knowing at his arms. After chewing through his left arm, and ripping out a few wires, Beast Boy eventually gets thrown again, into another building. With Aqua Lad and some new, blue guy[1] lying unconscious, and Beast Boy slightly injured, Bumble Bee comes in and begins to attack. She fires a few shots, than shrinks down and fires some more shots while flying around robotic Cyborg. He tries to grab her, but he keeps missing. He stops, stares straight ahead (while she continues to attack), and begins to calculate her movements. Eventually, he reaches out and snags her in midair. Bumble Bee is trapped in his hand. He closes his hand tightly, as the real Cyborg yells, "NOOOOO!" Beast Boy, having be the only one around to witness Bumble Bee's tragic fate, gets back up. Tired, hurt, and disoriented. "I don t know why you're doing this Cy," he calls out, "but I can't let you go! You were my best friend and you betrayed EVERYONE! Not Just the Titans, not just the 'League' but humanity! I hope the real you is in there so you can hear this! *Panting* But I love ya buddy! You were the closest thing to a brother I've ever known, and you were my best friend. But I'm sorry, I have to end this NOW!" The real cyborg, still off to the side, is touched by Beast Boy's words, "Beast, dude…" Beast Boy, as a full sized Lion, launches himself toward the robotic Cyborg. Cyborg aims his blasters, and fires toward Beast Boy before he could even reach him. Cyborg witnesses Beast Boy incinerating into nothing. "BEAST BOY!" He cries out.

Matthaios appears in an empty room. It's all black except for some lighting in the center. He hears someone get hit, than sees Raven getting knocked back into the lit area. She's wearing all-white, her hair is a few inches longer, and she looks a few years older. "Raven?" He asks himself. "Raven are you ok?!" His question goes unheard. She tries to fight back against who, or whatever is attacking her. But she can't get up. It turns out one of her legs have been broken. She begins to fire back, while on the ground. But all of the shots keep getting blocked and reflected. Matthaios thinks to himself, "Err, I wonder who's doing this. Maybe it's Trigon, back to get revenge for stopping him down before. Or maybe it's…" Someone walks in from the shadows, who looks like Matthaios. Raven cries and tries to plea with Matthaios, "Why? Why are you doing this?! I finally trusted you, WE Trusted you! How can you turn on us like this?! You betrayed us, FOR WHAT? More challenging fights? Do you get your entertainment from watching people suffer? INNOCENT People?! … ANSWER ME!" Matthaios walks up to her, looking at the floor. He goes to place his hand on her head, but she swats it away. A sinister look comes across his face, as her grabs her by the collar and lifts her up and places his other hand gently on her stomach. Without delay or hesitation, he charges up to his Rosu form and fires a red beam that pierces through Raven with ease. Confused and in disbelief, Matthaios (real) falls to his knees. "Why? Why would I do something like that? Why would I have ANY reason to betray everyone, to betray her? Yes, I understand she doesn't fully trust me, but that's no reason to…"

Raven ends up in the woods, looking at a log cabin. She walks up to it and notices 3 kids inside. She walks up to the side window and sees Melvin, Timmy, and Teether inside. Confused on why she's here, she heads to the front of the cabin. She sees someone walking toward the cabin in a pitch black robe. Raven hears a voice in the distance, coming from the woods behind her. "Raven … Raven Why?" Robin comes crawling out of the woods. Behind him lie the other Titans, in even worse condition than Robin. Angered with his plea's, Raven turns around and yells, "SILENCE!" as she strikes the forest, leaving an empty pathway. No trees, bushes, or Titans remain. "What? Noo…!" Raven (real) also confused, begins to question herself. "Why? Why would I do this? I can't…I can't survive without my…" She looks up and sees the 'dark' Raven standing about 20-30ft from the cabin, hood up and looking straight down at the ground. Inside, the 3 kids are cheering because of Raven's return. Raven puts her hand out, says her patented chant, and shoots a dark bean at the cabin, turning it into ashes. Raven cries out, "NOOOOO!" as she is beyond stunned and shocked at what she has just witnessed.

Beast Boy is at the pizza shop with Tara (Terra). Both are what appears to be 5-10 years older, and dressed in their wedding clothes. Beast Boy (real) is mesmerized. "No way! Terra and I get … Married?! AWESOME!" He sees them both sitting at the table, enjoying themselves before they head out to Mexico for the honey moon. They fade away, and fade back in. This time, they are in Mexico, on their honey moon. Beast Boy notices something different. Both are now sitting in the hotel room, depressed, looking away from one another:

-Tara:Gar I'm-

-Beast Boy:Stop, don't…

-Tara:Can I at least explain? Just listen to me for 1-

-Beast Boy:WHAT'S TO EXPLAIN, TARA?! THERE IS NO FORGIVENESS FOR WHAT YOU'VE DONE!

-Tara:He just said we could be happy together…forever, like we always wanted! I didn't know he was going to eliminate your friends too!

-Beast Boy:I told you NOT to trust Slade! But did you listen? NO! NOW look where we are! …I'm leaving. If you can betray our friends, how do I know you wont betray me?

-Tara:Because I love-

-Beast Boy:Goodbye Tara… *Walks out the door*

-Tara:BEAST BOY! WAIT-

* Beast Boy transforms into some kind of wildebeest, turns, and slashes through the abdomen of Tara without hesitation *

Beast Boy (real) in shock and awe, can't believe what he as just seen. "Why, why would she…? How could I…? No…it doesn't make sense…!"

Robins appears in Jump City. It looks abandoned and is in ruins. He hears screaming. He runs towards it, and ends up on the other side of the city. He sees Slade standing next to a fire, with people lying on the ground all around him. "Slade!" Robin calls out. He goes to attack Slade, "It's time to end this, NOW!" He pulls out his staff and swings toward the back of Slade, but it goes right through him. Someone shows up, and stands next to Slade:

-Robin:Is that, me?

-Slade:You have done well. I'm impressed.

-Nighwing:Thank you, Master! I only serve to please you.

-Robin:Master…?

-Slade:Excellent! With the country now under my control, and every last Teen Titan exterminated, you are left with one last task to complete. *Turns and looks at the wall of the building next to them*

-Robin:*Looks over* STARFIRE!

-Slade:Take out the last remaining Titan, and solidify you place by my side as we conquer the rest of this ungrateful planet!

-Nighwing:As you wish…

With Starfire chained up against the wall and unconscious, Nightwing walks up to her. She begins to come-to and sees Nightwing in front of her. "Nigh…Night-wing? Wha…what are you-" Without hesitation, and an almost 'unfeeling-dead' look on his face, he stabs her in the heart. She takes one last deep breath as she's being stabbed, and utters out, "Whhyyy …?" "STARFIRE!" Robin yells out. Nightwing and Slade leave her there as they run off in the distant night. Robin runs up to her, and stares, mourning, confused, and angry. He can't comprehend what's going on or why this is happening.

Starfire ends up in front of an apartment complex. She heads inside and passes an open door. Inside the room was a man and a little girl. She could not have been more than 2-3 years old. Starfire whispers to herself, "Why does that man look like a younger version of Robin's father? And who is this little child? Why does she have the green eyes like mine, but black hair?" She looks around and sees a picture of herself, and the rest of the Titans together. She takes a minute to think about it and piece everything together. The kid's hands begin to glow with a green orb. The man runs over and grabs her hands before anything happens. Starfire gasps, than tries to put it all together. "This is not Robin's dad. It IS Robin. I guess he became all grown up and with a family." She gets a little sad and depressed. "Good…good for him. I am glad he was able to find someone who could make him happy. I guess we were never meant to be together than…" Older 'Robin' looks up at the doorway, "Hey look, Mommy's home! Welcome back Star. Did you find everything- … Star…? Are you ok?" Starfire (real) turns around and notices a depressed, older looking version of herself standing in the doorway. Robin walks up to her and ask again, "Starfire, are you-" Starfire (older) pushes him down and puts out her hand. The little girl is cheering and happy because her mother is home. 'Robin' jumps on top of their daughter and covers her up. Starfire begins to charge a Bolt with her hand. She brings the other one in, and cups it with the other one, as she continues to charge up. "Starfire, Why are you-" She fires at Robin, creating a huge explosion and taking out a big chunk of the building. When the smoke clears, nothing remains but what is left with the building and both versions of Starfire.

Everything fades to black, as the Titans all dropped onto separate slides. They all slide down and end up in small, circular room together. Everyone is looking down at the floor together, distraught on what happened and what they've seen. Starfire looks up at Robin and runs toward him. In tears, she throws her arms around him and holds him in close:
-Starfire:*Whispers* I'm sorry…

-Robin:*Whispers back* For what?

She doesn't say anything, just continues to cry on his shoulders as they continue to hold each other. With Cyborg leaning up against the wall, and Beast Boy rocking on the floor in a corner, Matthaios is finally the 1st to speak up:

-Matthaios:Look, I don't know what everyone has seen, or what you have all been through. It has clearly taken a mental and emotional toll on everyone, me included. *Looks at Beast Boy* Some more than others…But we have to try and put all of that aside and try to figure out why this happened or how to even get out of here.

Robin locks a quick kiss with Starfire, and then takes charge:

-Robin:He's right. We can grieve and sort everything out later. But right now, we need to figure out a plan to get out of here. Any ideas?

-Cyborg:This isn't like Mumbo's normal 'bag of tricks.' This was some series voodoo stuff we're dealing with here!

-Robin:Raven, do you know any infor- … Raven?

* Raven has her hood up and is leaning up against the wall, shivering, shaking and still in shock *

-Starfire:*Wipes her tears* Raven…Friend…are you the, alright?!

-Raven:*Shivering and mumbling to herself*

-Matthaios:Here, I'll look after her. You guys think of a plan.

* Matthaios walks up to her, gently hugs and holds her, trying to calm her down *

-Cyborg:*Check his sensors* It looks like we're about 50miles from Jump City, and 1,000 feet below the surface.

-Robin:We need Raven and Beast Boy to snap out of it! They are the only ones who can get us out from this far underground.

-Cyborg:Ill take care of Beasty. *Kneels down in front of Beast Boy* Hey, 'B'…? *Grabs him by the collar* SNAP. *Smack* OUT. *Smack* OF. *Smack* IT! *Smack*

* Beast Boy comes-to *

-Beast Boy:Oh man, my head … Hey wait, WHAT DID YOU DO THAT FOR?!

-Cyborg:'Cuz you were losing you marbles, man. You were just on the floor talking to yourself.

-Beast Boy:Oh, right…

-Robin:Beast Boy, we need you to climb up and see if there's a way the rest of us can get out. We're about 1000ft below the surface. Starfire, rip one of the panels off the ceiling so Beast Boy can do his thing.

* Starfire rips one of the panels open and dirt comes pouring in *

-Cyborg:Put it back, Put it BACK! PUT IT BACK!

-Starfire:EEEK!

* She puts the panel back and begins to seal it up *

-Beast Boy:Soo, that might not work

-Robin:Any other ideas? If we don't get out of here soon we'll end up running out of air.

* Raven speaks up *

-Raven:Hold on, I'll try to get us as high as I can.

She transports everyone to a dark cave. Cyborg checks his sensors:

-Cyborg:500ft away now.

-Robin:Starfire, Light please!

-Raven:*Sits on a rock. Out of breath, panting* I know, what Mumbo did… *panting*

-Beast Boy:Raven, you ok?

-Raven:*Panting* Yea. That…That just took a lot out of me. I'll… I'll be fine.

-Robin:Ok, while she catches her breath, we need to figure out a way out of here!

-Cyborg:We could follow the cave to see where it leads.

-Starfire:Or perhaps Matthaios and I could blast a huge hole through the roof, and we could all go out that way.

-Robin:That could cause the whole cave to come crashing down on us before we could even escape. Raven, what was that you were saying about Mumbo?

* Raven regathers herself, takes a deep breath, and stands up *

-Raven:I don't know how, or why, but Mumbo has acquired the ability to use 'Dark Magic.' This isn't the fake, illusion based magic normally uses. No! This is much worse than that. This magic falls into the same league as mine, but MUCH stronger.

-Cyborg:If it's stronger, chances are it's more dangerous.

-Raven:Correct. Somehow, he was able to learn all of this and almost perfect it. The illusions he used on me, and I assume on the rest of you as well, were way beyond my limitations. I can alter though patterns and teleport, but to create new realities of both the past and the future…? That's something that would be difficult for even the greatest of spell casters.

-Beast Boy:How do we stop him? I REALLY don't want to go back there…!

-Robin:I don't know. The question is where did he GET these powers?

-Raven:I don't know much about dark magic, except from what Malchior taught me. I forgot most of it when I was used as a portal to bring Trigon- … Anyway, we'll have to find out anything we can. *Gets into her meditative stance* Meet me at Titans Tower.

-Matthaios:1st, we need to find a way out of this cave.

Raven begins to mumble a chant to herself. Everyone looks at her as she disappears:

-Starfire:Where has she gone?

-Beast Boy:She didn't tell us she was leaving?!

-Robin:Wherever it is, I trust she knows what she's doing, Lets go, we have to find a way out.

The remaining Titans gather around each other and begin walking through the cave. Cyborg leads the way, as he suspects his sensors can lead them out.

Meanwhile, Raven appears in what looks to be a shrine used for sacrificial rituals. Surrounding her, is nothing but red rocks with a red tint and glow on everything. "Hmm, I made it to the 'Underworld' after all." she mumbles to herself. She begins to fly around searching for something or someone. She heads to Trigon's old palace, where he lived prior to being sealed away. Raven finds a few scrolls with writing on them. The scrolls are written in a different language, one she hasn't seen before. She tucks them away and teleports herself back to Earth.

Back in the cave, the Titans have been walking for a few hours now. They eventually find a light at the end of the cave. Raven soon appears next to them, looking exhausted. Breathing heavily, and unable to stand, she falls to one knee before sitting on ground:

-Starfire:Raven!

-Beast Boy:You ok?!

-Cyborg:She's exhausted herself with all of her teleporting.

-Robin:Raven, did you find anything?!

-Matthaios:Hold that thought, Robin. I got this.

-Raven:Don't… *Panting* …Don't touch…me!

-Matthaios:Just relax. I know this may sound like a cliché, but just trust me.

* Raven, with a mixed of exhaustion and anger on her face, glances over at Robin. He nods, slightly. Raven continues to catch her breath *

-Raven:*Still breathing heavy* …Fine…!

-Starfire:What are you going to-?

-Matthaios: Trust me.Everyone stand back. Raven! Just relax, and breathe slowly…

Matthaios gently places his hands on Raven's shoulders and takes a deep breath, Slowly, both Raven and Matthaios become surrounded by green aurora. "What's he doing to her…?" Beats Boy asks, confused and concerned. Robin replies, "Quiet, he needs to concentrate…I think." After a few minutes go by, Matthaios exhales. Now it seems he is exhausted while Raven jumps up, refreshed and energized. Everyone else has a look of shock, confusion, and amazement:

-Robin:What did you do?!

-Beast Boy:She looks better than ever! *Raven glances over at him, making him nervous* Well…eh, better than she was. Ehehe!

-Cyborg:Yea, Raven! Ya look like you woke up on the RIGHT side of the bed.

-Starfire:How is this possible, since you were more tired than a potato who likes to sit on the couch?

-Raven:I feel…great actually. Refreshed! I don't know what he did, but it worked.

-Robin:Matthaios, are YOU ok now?

-Matthaios:*Heavily Panting* Yea…*Panting* I'm… I'm fine. Just a bit *Panting* …Just a bit tired. That's all… *Takes a few slow, deep breaths. Than leans up against a boulder* Ok…so basically, what I did was transfer my energy to her Clearly, I gave her more than she needed, but I wanted to make sure she could get everyone back to the tower from here. *Still panting, slightly* Unless you prefer to take the longer way home.

-Robin:What about you?

-Matthaios:I'll be fine. I just need to rest a bit.

-Robin:Cyborg, how far away did you say we were from the Tower?

-Cyborg:A little over 50 miles from the Tower.

-Robin:Raven, could you take us that far?

-Raven:Not everyone at once. I could take one person back to Jump City. Although, I don't know how close we will end up. I never traveled that far, aside from jumping between dimensions.

-Robin:Alright! Than takeMatthaios back. Beast Boy, grab Cyborg. Starfire and I will fly together. Raven, we'll meet you 2 there.

-Raven:I guess. *Turns to Matthaios* It's the least I can do for helping me out.

The 4 Titans take flight while Raven teleports Matthaios back to the Tower. She appears on top of a building in Jump city. She drops Matthaios, who slams onto the roof. Raven begins to take deep breaths, as she has become tired once again, but not as bad as before:

-Matthaios:You could've put me down a BIT softer!

-Raven: *Grabs her knees, trying to catch her breath* Yea, *panting* sorry.

-Matthaios:*Chuckles* I guess I'll let it slide THIS time, since I got a free lift … Arrre, you ok?

-Raven:*Stands up, still panting* Yea, *Pant* I just need a second… *Pant*

-Matthaios:By the looks of it, you need some serious sleep…I think we ALL do after today … and maybe some counseling, too. Here, climb on my back. I'll take us the rest of the way.

-Raven:Uhhhhh … noo! I'm fine, now. *Begins to levitate* If you can fly now, Let's just-

As she begins to fly away, she becomes unconscious and falls over the side of the building. "Raven!" Matthaios yells out. Still exhausted from draining his own energy for Raven's benefit, he still tries to gathers every last ounce he has left. He jumps to the edge, grabs it, and uses it to slingshot himself down toward the Raven, who is falling toward the ground. He meets her in midair, wraps his arms around her to get a good grip, than tries to turn them both so his back is facing the ground[2]. A few seconds after he turns himself, he lands on a parked car. Civilians gather cautiously in amazement and concern. A few seconds go by before Raven comes-to. She looks around, than gets up:

-Raven:Uhh, are you ok? … What happened?!

-Matthaios:Oh, Yeaaa…! You decided to get all brave and pick a fight with gravity. As always, gravity *Tries to get up* oww…wins. But, it's ok now. *Points* This guy's car broke my fall…*Glances over at him* Sorry dude! Get with me, ow, tomorrow and I'll pay for that.

-Raven:Right…umm…well … *Turns away* Thanks…!

-Matthaios:Don't mention it. It worked out anyway, ow! Turns out this is where I wanted to go anyway…let's head back.

Raven nods in agreement. They start walking back to Titans Tower. After a bit of walking, they end up at the front door just as the other 4 land:

-Beast Boy:Wow! Are you guys ok? You look like you've been in a train wreck.

-Matthaios:More like a car wreck, but close enough.

* Raven quietly chuckles *

-Robin:What happened?

-Beast Boy:Wait…? Did Raven just laugh?!

-Raven:I don't know what you're talking about…but anyway, it's not important. Let's head inside, I have a few things to show you.

The Titans head inside. Raven shows everyone the scrolls and where she found them. She begins to explain that she thinks they might help with Mumbo's situation, but can't decipher what they say. Cyborg scans them into the computer, but the language on the scrolls is not in the Titans database. At this point, Matthaios has already fallen asleep. He's lying on the hallway in front of the spare bedroom. He didn't quite make it to the bed.

Raven searches her room for any book that might contain some information. She eventually finds a book with layers of dust on it. She takes it back to the living room. Based on the information of the book, Raven explains that it's an ancient language used a very long time ago. It's one of the 1st in universal history, well before Earth and most of the planets were formed:

-Beast Boy:Soo, how do we figure out what it says?

-Raven:The only choice we have is to capture Mumbo and see what HE knows.

-Robin:We have to find Mumbo!

-Beast Boy:Can we do it tomorrow?

-Cyborg:Yea man. We're tired and I need to recharge and update my CPU.

-Robin:No! We have to find him now before he forces innocent people to witness what we- … We have to find him now! Cyborg, stay here and look after Matthaios. You aren't much help with low power levels. Beast Boy, you and Starfire search the spots we normally see him. Raven, come with me and we'll search his apartment. Titans, GO!

The team splits up. Beast Boy is taking a nap while Starfire is flying thought the air while holding him by his wrist. They land in front of the bank. Starfire abruptly wakes Beast Boy, than they both begin to look around. Robin and Raven head out on Robins motorcycle, since she is still too tired to fly or teleport. They stop in front of his apartment and head to his room. Robin kicks down the door and sees Mumbo in the corner, rocking. Robin calls Starfire and tells her and Beast Boy to meet back at the tower.

When they get back, raven makes herself some Tea to help stay awake a little easier, while the others tie Mumbo to a chair:

-Robin:Mumbo! We have some questions we expect answered. 1st; Why, and how, did you create those visions for everyone?

-Mumbo:*Frantically, mumbling to himself*

-Robin:Mumbo? … Mumbo!

-Beast Boy:What's wrong with- … "Zzzzzz…"

-Robin:Star, lay Beast Boy on the couch, please.

-Starfire:Right!

-Raven:It seems he's not mentally stable to wield these powers. Let me take a shot at him.

She sets her tea down on the counter, than walks over to Mumbo. She places her hands on his head and begins to calm his mind. Mumbo begins to settle down into a much calmer state.

-Robin:Now? Are you going to answer me?!

-Mumbo:Uhh… Ohhh…my head! What's going on?

-Robin:Why did you create those, 'dark' visions?! How did you create them?

-Mumbo:I don't know what you're talking about. I just wanted to get RID of you! All of you! What happened to you after I made you, 'disappear,' was beyond my control. I don't know what happened to everyone, nor do I know how it happened. I was just told to-

-Robin:Told? Told to what? … Told, BY WHO?!

-Mumbo:*Shaking in fear*I don't know! They just told me what to do, gave me the powers I needed, and how to use it. That's it!

-Raven:Robin, calm down! Mumbo, these are 'dark' powers used only by those who are pure evil and are truly consumed by darkness. Who gave you these powers?!

-Mumbo:Some guy with 4 red eyes … He called himself Jesse. I didn't think it would be this bad. He walked up to me and just offered to help! I didn't know he was a demon until after-

-Starfire:Wait! A demon? …With the 4 red eyes?

-Robin:Doesn't that sound a little too familiar?

-Raven:… Trigon! He must've had some ties with Trigon prior to Trigon's demise. *Holds up a scroll* Can you read what these say?!

-Mumbo:*Gasps, than begins to read it and whispers it to himself*

-Raven:I believe he knows what it says.

-Robin:Mumbo, tell us what it says!

-Mumbo:I don't know! It's a poem of some kind, or maybe a spell… Wait, how can I read this? I've never seen this writing before!

-Raven:It's probably a spell

-Robin:What does it say?!

-Raven:DON'T, say it out loud! With the powers you have inside you, right now, you may activate it. Causing all types of chaos, even beyond MY control!

-Starfire:Maybe…he could right down what the scrolls say.

-Raven:That might work.

-Robin:Someone get some paper. Cyborg, free his hands! Mumbo, if you try anything…

-Mumbo:Ohhh, trust me. I DO want you pesky Titans to be gone, but I want self-control a lot more than that!

Cyborg frees Mumbo's hands, while Starfire grabs some paper and a pen. Raven holds up the scrolls one-by-one while Mumbo writes down the translation. Once he's done, they retie his hands quickly and examine what he's written down:

-Raven:Ok, so, we have 3 different spells here. The 1st spell removes any demonic energy or power from something, or someone. The 2nd is a curse, that can seal something, or someone, into a "bloodstone," which is a VERY rare gem found only in the 'underworld' where Trigon used to live.

-Cyborg:What's the 3rd scroll all about?

-Raven:It's…IT'S … a shopping list.

-Starfire:Trigon did, 'the shopping?' Ohh I wonder if he did the 'hanging out' at the mall! *She imagines Trigon shopping with her at the Jump City mall*

-Raven:Uhh, No! Not even close, Starfire. Actually, I'm just going to store this away. This list is something no one should see!

-Cyborg:Why? What on there that could be SOO bad?

-Robin:Yea Raven, it's cool. We can handle it.

-Raven: … Ok, fine! But don't say I didn't warn you.

* The team looks at the list for a few seconds, as they are all stunned in shock *

-Cyborg:… We have to burn this list.

-Starfire:I agree. Although, I do wish I had not seen that!

-Raven:Told ya. I'll hide this in my room. We can still learn more about this language from it.

-Mumbo:Hello?! Are we, FORGETTING something?

-Robin:Oh, right! Raven, if you could please?!

-Raven:Right… Mumbo, hold still so I don't cause any side effects.

-Mumbo:Wait, Side effects? What side-?

Raven puts her arms up, and her palms out facing toward Mumbo. Then she begins to chant the passage in the 'demonic' language from the 1st scroll. The lights go out, as the room becomes dark. The ropes holding Mumbo to the chair snaps as he's lifted a few feet off the ground. A red entity escapes from him and begins to fly around the room. Raven continues to read the passage as this is going on. A small portal opens up as the entity is sucked through. Once Raven is finished with the passage, the lights turn back on. Robin grabs Mumbo's arm and prepares to take him off to jail. Mumbo pushes Robin away, than laughs and throws a smoke bomb down before disappearing in thin air:

-Robin:NOO! … We have to go after him!

-Starfire:Ok! Then we are right behind you, Robin!

-Cyborg:Wait! Raven, when you were reading the passage, I swore I heard you say 'Arkham.'

-Raven:Yup! I was able to sneak 1 of my spells in there as well. I had a feeling he would try to escape using HIS 'magic,' so I placed an Azarath spell on him. Every time he tries to escape by 'disappearing,' he'll end up in the Arkham Asylum!

-Robin:Wow…that was kind of clever, Raven.

-Cyborg:Pretty messed up, though. But still clever.

-Raven: Thanks? … I guess. Anyway, I'm going to bed now. I will literally have to do everything in my power to forget this day.

-Cyborg:Right behind *Yawns* sister. Man, I feel like I can sleep for a whole week.

-Robin:Well, try not to. We have training in the morning!

-Cyborg/Starfire/Raven:UGGHHH!

-Beast Boy:*Wakes up* Wha-? …What'd I miss?!

*** NOTE ***

1. The Blue Beetle

2. He's positioning himself where his back is facing toward the ground and he's looking up toward the sky, with Raven wrapped securely in his arms.
