Summery: Raven went back to Azarath to get stronger. Before she left, she said one of the reason to leave is Beast Boy's annoyance.

Chapter 7: The Realization (Part 2)

"But first, we need to gather every Titan that left in the world." said Beast Boy "Cyborg, you send a signal to alert every single Titans that haven't been captured come to Titans Tower. And remember to tell them to turn off their communicators after they receive this message."

"Yes Beast Boy." said Cyborg.

After a long time of research, Beast Boy figured out that Brother Blood's powers came from his master Trigon. Beast Boy read some books about the history of Azarath and found out some unbelievable facts about Brother Blood.

Two days later, all Titans East members, Herald and Jericho arrived at the Titans Tower. They barely managed to escape the fate for being captured by Brother Blood.

"Man, I can't believe that Brother Blood is that strong!" complained Aqualad.

"Yes, he is a lot stronger that last time when we fought him at our tower." said Bumblebee as she remembered the time when Brother Blood brainwashed their brains and took control of the Titans East Tower in Steel City.

"Hey, where's Robin?" asked Speedy.

"Robin has been captured by Brother Blood two days ago. The remaining Titans (Cyborg, Beast Boy, Starfire, Jinx and Kid Flash) voted that Beast Boy will be the leader until we can free Robin." answered Cyborg.

"Good, Beast Boy. I know that you can be the leader since the Brotherhood of Evil." said Aqualad.

"Dude, lets not chit chat now, we got more important things to talk about." said Beast Boy.

"Yes, Aqualad we have more important things to talk then this." agreed Cyborg "Now lets sit in the kitchen and gather around Beast Boy." and then all the Titans gathered around Beast Boy.

The changeling wizard sighed and then started to speak "Alright, now that all we know that Brother Blood had freed all Brotherhood of Evil members and started to capture all the Titans. Most of you had witnessed Brother Blood's evil power. Now let's start this: I have checked every spell book about the "Shockwave Spell" and I found out that Brother Blood is an apprentice of Trigon, Raven's father.

"WHAT!!!!" shouted all Titans in unison.

"Yes" said Beast Boy "Because according to the discretion of the "Shockwave Spell", only Trigon and Brother Blood used this spell. We have already witnessed this spell before, that's the spell that Trigon used when he arrived at the Earth." now all Titans were shocked.

Beast Boy continued "I checked every book about Azarath's history and here is this: After Trigon finish training Brother Blood, Trigon then send Brother Blood to Earth to wait for Raven's arrival to fulfill that false prophecy (See my story "The Gem and The Ring" if you want to know more about the "false prophecy"). When he arrived at the Earth, he set up the Church of Blood which the people there worship Trigon."

"Want me to continue?" asked Beast Boy. "Yes." the Titans replied.

"Very well." said Beast Boy "The Church of Blood continued to worship Trigon for many years. However, when "The Azarathian Giants" (Similar to Ultramans) discovered the Church of Blood, they attacked Brother Blood and destroyed the Church of Blood. Brother Blood died in the battle, but not before he used dark arts to bring him back in the future." the Titans gasped as they heard that Brother Blood can use dark arts.

"Brother Blood's remains were moved to Transylvania and settled there. Brother Blood seems destroyed. But, in year 1299, Brother Blood awaked from his grave. As the matter of worst, Brother Blood was a vampire!" Now all Titans gasped, Brother Blood awaked from his death and his was a vampire!

"So his region of terror lasted more than 12 years, he keep getting stronger by drinking people's blood. But instead of turning the victims into vampires, he drink them dry which means that Brother Blood slain his victims. His region of terror ended when the Monks of Azarath, Raven's guardians, destroyed his vampire curse, causing Brother Blood to turn back into human. Brother Blood then fled to America. So this part of history eventually turns into the "Legend of Count Dracula" which the people believed that Brother Blood was the legendary Count Dracula." Again the Titans gasped that Count Dracula is actually Brother Blood.

"After he reached to America, he hided in plain site but he kills anyone that dared to reach his hideout in the Rocky Mountains. Finally, about 2 years before the arrival of Trigon, he joined the H.I.V.E. Academy and became the Headmaster. However, he still got those brainwashing powers and those dark sorcery powers because his sill remains loyal to Trigon and worship him. About 4 months before us, the original Teen Titans were formed; he received a message from Trigon to take care of Raven when she arrives at Earth. However, Raven managed to escape from Brother Blood when she arrived at the Earth; Brother Blood tried to stop her but failed. When Trigon decided to sent those demon marks on Raven, he called for Brother Blood but Brother Blood said he is too busy. Trigon then brought back Slade to complete the mission."

"Alright, we learned Brother Blood's past before he became the Headmaster of the H.I.V.E. now to talk about his powers. Ever since he turned into half-robot, his brainwashing powers were increased. Right now, the only ones here that are immune to his powers are me and Cyborg. Because half of Cybrog's brain is an electronic, so Brother Blood couldn't fool Cyborg even if he upgrades himself into half-robot. I'm immune to Brother Blood's brainwashing powers because ever since I learned Raven's magic, I began to have high resistance against Trigon's powers. Now that most of you are not immune to this power. So I will put a charm on everyone that allows persons to resist this power. Be careful though, there is still a chance that Brother Blood can break thorough the charm and brainwash you." and the Titans nodded.

"The dark sorcery powers of Brother Blood could only hurt you when you are brainwashed by Brother Blood. Once you can resist against Brother Blood's brainwashing powers you will be safe from these powers but be sure to look out when he use the "Shockwave Spell". That spell could cause you to lose control and make you unconscious. That's all you need to know to stop Brother Blood, remember those advices that I gave you well and you will be able to stop Brother Blood." finished Beast Boy.

"Good news Beast Boy, we have managed to locate which city that holds Brother Blood's headquarters." said Bumblebee.

"Good job, Titans East! Which city is it?" asked Beast Boy.

"Gotham City." replied Aqualad.
