Chap. 4 Flames of Hell
I followed Miss Martian into the kitchen as she telepathically opened the oven and took out the cookies. "Here, try one!" She says handing me the plate. "Mmm, these are so sweet! Thanks Miss Martian!" I said mouth full of chocolate cookies. "Oh, call me Megan, that's my human name." "Since we are giving out our secret info, mine's Wally." Wally said walking in with everyone and grabbing a cookie. "My name is Kaldur'ahm, but my friends call me Kaldur." He said looking at me smiling. So I smiled back. "Mine's Connor." "My name's Robin, just so you know." He said flirtatiously. "Yeah, Batman doesn't want Boy Wonder here to tell us his real name." Wally said grinning. "Ha, ha, very funny." Robin said walking to another part of the room. "Mine is just Artemis." "And mine is just Zatanna." "Mine is Shyla, Shyla Rose." I said. "Wait, Rose, like the drink?" Wally asked. "Yes, like the drink." I said laughing.
"You certainly have an accent, where are you from Shyla?" Kaldur asks. "Well, I'm from Bronx, New York. My accent is 'out there' ain't it?" "No, well, kinda." Everyone replies laughing. "So what's your power Shyla?" Zatanna asks. "Well, instead of telling you guys, how 'bout I show you. Do you guys have a training room I can use, better yet something outside?" "Yeah, sure." Robin says leading us into an outdoor training field. I take a deep breath and ignite the flames around my hands and shoot all the targets, not missing a single one. As I calm down the flames with my hands, I turn to everyone to see everyone with their jaws dropped. "And that's my power!" I said smiling. A chorus of "Sweet!" "Awesome!" and "Cool!" were heard. We started to walk back into the base when a hologram screen of Batman popped up.
"Team, I need you to report to the meeting room for mission debriefing." "Mission, already! Oh man, I'm so nervous! Merda!" I said. "Don't worry Shyla; I'm sure that you'll do fine on your first mission." A familiar voice said. "Whaa? Megan, is that you?" I said startled. "Oh, sorry! I didn't mean to startle you, just wanted to give you words of encouragement." She said sadly. "No, it's alright, thanks though." I said smiling at her. As we walked into the debriefing room Batman began his explanations. "Off the coast of the Bahamas, there is a small undetected island, and The League has speculation of gang activity in progress, you are to investigate and to report back here if anything is amiss. You will leave immediately to discuss your plan of action. Batman out." And the hologram disappeared.
We all piled into the Bio Ship and began discussing our plan. "Alright, Robin, do you have any information on any activity that has been apparent in the area?" Aqualad asks. "Nothing, not even the smallest thing. But there is a force field blocking this area." Robin says fiddling with his 'glove computer'. "Alright, Miss Martian, can you disperse this force field just long enough that we can pass though?" Aqualad asks. "Sure, I'll try." She then begins her mind thing and forces the field open to let us pass through unseen and silently. We then land on the small island and hop out of the ship. "We are to split up into groups of two and scout out this island. We are to keep in touch. Miss Martian, link us up." Aqualad instructs. "Is everyone linked?" She asks. A chorus of yes' were heard in my mind. "Teams of two shall be; Artemis and Zatanna, Robin and Kid Flash, Superboy and Miss Martian, and lastly Blaze and I. Alright, everyone, move out." And with that we were gone in separate ways.
Aqualad and I were walking through the dense jungle. "So, what are we supposed to be lookin' for anyways?" I ask walking over roots. "We are looking for anything suspicious. Do you see anything yet Blaze? Blaze?" He says looking for me. "Up here! Does this look suspicious to you?" I say pointing something out in the distance. Aqualad jumps up on the branch. "Yes, precisely. Good work." He says smiling. "T-thanks." I said blushing. Damn this stupid shyness complex, I mean, Aqualad is very handsome, possibly cute- wait, what! This isn't the time to be love-struck; it's the time to get serious. "Everyone, report to my coordinates, we have located something out in the distance." He instructs. "Right." Everyone replied. When everyone arrived, we began a look out on an old warehouse. "Superboy, what can you see?" Aqualad asks. "Bunch of armed bozos at the door, and the boss in the cubicle at the top." "Perfect. How are we gonna get in?" Zatanna asks. "Like this." Robin says grinning. Next I knew, we were sneaking in through the back entrance of the building and there our plan was made.
"Alright, is everyone in position?" I ask. "Yes." "Yup." "You know it beautiful." "Yeah." "Definitely." "Totally." "Oh yeah." "Good, Robin, let's go." I say. Robin and I made our way stealthily and unseen through the warehouse to get up to the main control box. Inside there was the man with the jet black hair! Demone! Well he looked as cultic as ever. "Hey, Blaze, you seem, distraught. Is everything alright?" Robin asks. "No, I'm alright, let's just get this done." I say a bit nervously. We both hid as Demone left the room. Robin plugs in his glove computer and begins deciphering the inscriptions on the database. "Hey Rob, are you getting through?" Kid Flash asks. "I can't get through anything, the inscription on this thing is impossible!" He answers. "That's because it is in Old Italian, children."
There we both look up to see him. Demone. "Robin, go and alert everyone, now!" I shout. "What! But, what about you?" he asks. "Go, I'll be fine, kiddo. And besides, I'm taking it that he already alerted his bozos about us anyways." Robin nods his head and jumps out of the window to join everyone else in their fight. "So, terrorizing people wasn't just enough, eh?" I say. "Child, you don't know the real meaning of terrorize." Demone says attacking me. I begin dodging and counter attacking him. "You have gotten better, child. But I'm afraid that the flames of Hell have not awoken the beast deep inside you." "What? What do you mean?" "You already know my name child, or in other words Demone. And I am here to take back what is mine!" I dodge his attacks while throwing fireballs at him, but he caught my arm and threw me out the window, and crates broke my fall.
"Maledizione." I swore in Italian. Then Demone reappeared before me and picked me up by the front of my shirt. "Phoenix non si levera, mai." He whispered in Italian. "Get. Off. Of. Me!" I said igniting fire in his face, partially burning him and dropping me to the floor. My hair had slowly turned black. "You will regret that child! The Phoenix shall never rise! Never!" Demone said tuning into black mist and slowly dissipating. I hit the floor panting and my hair slowly turned back to red. "Blaze! Blaze, are you alright?" Aqualad said running up to me and putting a hand on my shoulder. "Oh, I'm fine, I just need some rest." I said passing out. That's all I remembered that night.
Roman: Well, that was creepy, Demone. Anyways, please let me know what you think about this chapter and I'll respond back! I'm really trying to make Shyla and Kaldur's relationship bloom a little more, y'know, for more effect and stuff. Well more chapters are going to be produced soon, so please check back in to read more of Ignite the Flames of Love! More reviews would be appreciated!
Much love, ~Roman~ a.k.a your friendly Dungeon Dragon Rah Rah! :D
