Alright guys, I know you have all been waiting for this, and I would hate to keep you all waiting. So, here we go! The ULTIMATE GRUDGE MATCH!
See-More looked outside the HIVE Hideout as Gizmo made a few repairs to his spider legs. 'Man... What is going on with Kyd?' He felt helpless as he watched the time. Ten minutes to go until they all would go to the designated point and execute the plan. But until then, they were all sitting ducks waiting for that monster to make it's move on his best friend.
"Dude, relax." Gizmo called out from over his shoulder. See-More looked over at him. "Your footsteps aren't letting me concentrate Butt Sniffer." He continued. "But I'm guessing you're worried about Kyd Wykkyd. Goth Boy can handle himself just fine."
"Yeah, I know. But we have no idea what we are dealing with..." See-More trailed off as Gizmo waved his worried away.
"This is Kyd we are talking about. He's the reason why we all are still alive, if you remember."
See-More sighed and nodded. He remembered the collapse of the academy and how Kyd got them out effortlessly while so many others couldn't make it.
"I sure hope you're right." Looking out into the horizon, See-More saw a bunch of storm clouds swirling around the sky near Rock Summit. 'The weatherman never spoke about this... Strange.' See-More twisted his big eye to act as a telescope. 'It's him. What's his big idea...-'
"KYD!" See-More yelled out in horror as he saw Kyd appearing near the guy. Without a second thought, he started running as fast as he could to the Rock Summit. Gizmo watched him go in Alarm before taking out the communicator.
"Sauron has found the One Ring! I repeat, Sauron has found the One Ring!"
The demon and half-demon stared each other down, just as they did in Carmen Cafe. Looking over Trigon, Kyd noticed that he looked physically different. His vessel had gotten considerably bigger than it had yesterday, and that wasn't fat. Muscles seemed taut underneath the ragged clothes the host was wearing, caked in dry blood. Trigon himself was pulsing with a dark red light every few seconds, each pulse lasting only a flash.
'What's wrong with your vessel?' Kyd looked at him warily, though standing his ground.
"My powers are returning to their original stature. This little suit will soon be unable to contain me, and I shall reach my ultimate power." Trigon grinned menacingly until he took a good look at Kyd Wykkyd. His body hadn't changed physically, but his aura...
"You seem different..." Trigon continued the small talk, slowly circling Kyd while keeping his eyes focused. Kyd turned around to keep Trigon in his sights. "There is something foreign there. An extra piece that doesn't belong, yet fits like a jigsaw puzzle."
Kyd thought for a moment. All he did was mate with Raven... and licked her blood off her neck. Eyes widening, he smirked at Trigon. 'Oh well, if I am going to die, I might as well make sure he doesn't enjoy the kill.'
'I'm surprised you don't recognize it. After all, it is a part of you.'
Trigon paused with confusion. "Part of me? What are you talking about?"
'She's a screamer.'
"...OH YOU MOTHER FUCKER!"
'Daughter fucker.'
"SILENCE!" Trigon bellowed out and raised his hand, emitting a powerful beam. Teleporting out of the way just in the nick time, Kyd saw the rock formation behind him get demolished completely.
'Okay, no more joking around.' His eyes skin became darker, fangs protruding from his mouth, and a growl coming from his throat. 'Let's get serious.'
"Gladly." Trigon let loose another blast. Running forward while dodging, Kyd jumped and delivered a kick to his jaw, causing Trigon to stumble. Using the moment, Kyd teleported behind him and gave another kick to his back, making Trigon fly forward and land on the ground face down. "ENOUGH!" Placing his hand on the ground, Trigon created a demon energy field, blasting everything within a 500 foot radius of him.
Unable to get out of the way in time, Kyd landed bodily onto the rubble of rocks, groaning from the immense pain. Although he was significantly strengthened in his demonic form, there was only so much damage he could take before having to return to his original form, as well become helpless from the lack of energy. Slowly getting back up, he turned to see Trigon launching at him, and then a fist connecting to his face.
Dropping to the floor like a sack of potatoes, Kyd looked up to see glowing red eyes that were ready to fire.
"DIE!"
Right as Trigon was about to fire the beams, a large red beam smacked into him, slamming him through the rocks on the hillside. See-More ran as fast as his leg could take him, his big eye glowing as he kept vigilant watch on Trigon.
"Kyd! Kyd man, are you alright?"
'...Truth or lie?'
See-More cringed. "Nevermind. Listen, we need to get you out of here. The others are coming and will take care of this-"
'NO!"
Kyd screamed telepathically at him, standing up straight. His red eyes slowly morphed into four, scaring See-More shitless.
'I CANNOT AND WILL NOT STAND BY WHILE OTHERS CLEAN UP MY MESS AGAIN!' Kyd took a deep breath and turned to look at Trigon as he was crawling out from the hole made in the wall. 'Stop the others from coming in. I got this.'
See-More took a look at Kyd, and realized he was different. The darker skin, the four eyes, and his cape turning black... Wait what?
"Uh...Kyd...?"
'GO!' Kyd held a hand up, causing a black portal to form underneath See-More's feet. He fell inside screaming. It was then that Trigon made it back and saw the transformation of Kyd.
"Where did that accursed cyclops... and What happened to you?" Trigon stared at Kyd, not knowing what to expect.
Not answering him, Kyd let out a raspy growl as his cape surrounded his body and grew. The floor around him became pitch black, enlarging every second while Kyd's was doing the same.
"...What is this?" Trigon stared and felt a twinge of something he hadn't felt in countless millenniums.
Fear.
"Where am I..?!" Kyd grabbed his mouth. 'I can speak?'
Looking around, all he could see was black void, and the gray floor he was walking on. Cautiously, he started walking while looking around, trying to find his bearings.
"Hello? Is anyone there?" He called out. Immediately after he called out, a large shadow-like creature appeared out of nowhere and tackled him to the ground. Pushing him off, Kyd flipped to his feet onto combat position, only to see who it was.
"...Me?"
"Yes. I am you." The Kyd look-a-like spoke back, though he was orange instead of the usual dark blue. Looking around, Kyd Wykkyd felt lost.
"Where am I?"
"You are in your mind. One of your personalities has taken over."
"...Personalities? What... What the hell are you talking about?"
The orange Kyd grinned and wiggled a finger. "Come, walk with me and I will tell you about it."
"Um...okay?" Kyd walked with his double, waiting for an answer. The whole thing felt like it was going to blow his head off.
"What is a demon, Kyd?"
Thinking about it for a moment, he shrugged. "I just thought that's what I am. Another specie with power in this universe."
"Then I fear you are mistaken." Clearing his throat, Orange Kyd spoke. "Demons are more than just creatures. They are ethereal spirits, beings that can create their own form on the physical plane. There are not many of them, which would explain why you have seldom met any until just recently."
"If you're a part of my mind, how are you telling me the kind of knowledge when I myself don't even know about it?"
"You were taught this information, but it was a very long time ago. Now, let us continue. Demons are very powerful beings, with power that can rival that of Gods or deities deemed invincible."
"Then how is it I have continuously been defeated by the titans, as well as by Trigon?"
"The Teen Titans have their own half demon, if you remember. After all, we did mate with her." Kyd blushed when Orange Kyd said this.
"I mated with her. I don't know what you were doing in all... What even are you?"
"Good question. I'm your knowledge. Now shut up so I can finish." Sticking his tongue out, he continued. "Trigon defeated you because he is a full-blooded demon, even though he is in a human host. So basically powered down demon is what he is currently."
"Alright, so powered down demon trumps half-demon. Why am I in my mind instead of fighting him?"
"What do you think about Raven?" Orange Kyd smirked as he asked the question.
"...Why does that matter?" Kyd blushed.
"Do you like her?"
"Well obviously it has to be along those lines if I mated with her!" Kyd sighed with exasperation. "But what does this have to do with what's going on?"
"Raven is a half-demon, much like you. However, she has a different half. Think of you both as different sides on the same coin. You need one to complete the whole."
"Fascinating. I still don't see why us mating would have anything to do with what's going."
"Let me show you." Knowledge Kyd turned around and put a hand on Kyd's forehead, blacking him out.
Trigon was... well, he was getting battered around more than the ball from the old Window's Pinball game.
"RRAAAAHHH SHIT STOP!" He cried out as a black tentacle from the shadows gripped on to him and thrashed him around.
'What's the matter Lord of Evil?' Kyd's telepathy penetrated his mind. 'What happened to all that bravado?'
Another tentacle form out of the shadow, shaping itself into a spear-like object before hurling itself at Trigon. With him being clamped down, Trigon could do nothing but brace himself for impact.
"GAAAHHHH!" The cry of pain echoed through the summit as the blood from the host's bodies poured from the wound, the left leg skewered and rendered useless.
"Holy shit, I am a badass!" Kyd exclaimed in his mind.
"Actually, that credit belongs to Rage." Knowledge gave a slight smirk. "He's hard to work with, but I am sure now you can see that he gets the job done."
"So... How did all this happen?"
"When you mated with Raven, you took in some of her blood. Her half demonic side merged with your half in that instance, and it made you whole."
Kyd's eyes widened. "Wait... So that means..."
"Yes." Knowledge's voice was solemn. "This is the outcome of your true demonic side being fully awakened, and because an emotion as raw and pure as rage is controlling the outburst, anyone in your path at this moment will be decimated."
"That's a good thing isn't it? We need Trigon destroyed." Kyd spoke excitedly. 'Maybe we can actually win...'
"I wouldn't celebrate just yet." Knowledge deadpanned. "Look."
Kyd closed his eyes and blanched. The Titans and the HIVE have arrived.
"This way!" See-More yelled out as he led the coalition to the Rock Summit. Beast Boy flew ahead with Starfire, looking for Kyd Wykkyd.
"Robin," Starfire spoke to the communicator. "We are close to the summit- Wait! What is that?" Her voice shook slightly with fear, causing the others that heard to immediately speed up. When they got to the top of the summit and looked down, most of them had their jaws dropped.
There was the perptrator that had caused so much destruction and death, was currently getting his ass handed to him by something large, and frightening.
"What is that?" Cyborg echoed Starfire, looking at the scene with terror etched in his voice. See-More blasted the floor near them to get their attention.
"GUYS, THAT'S KYD! C'MON, WE HAVE TO HELP HIM!" Nodding at him, the others rushed in. Trigon looked up for a split second and grinned through the pain.
'Finally, an oppurtunity..' Looking up at Kyd, Trigon glared and lifted a hand towards the group before using all his might for a demon blast.
"No no no No NO! They can't survive a blast like that!" Kyd exclaimed fearfully.
"Go." Knowledge nodded at him.
As if time itself slowed down, Kyd closed his eyes and reopened them. Suddenly, he was back on the battlefield, watching the beam go off in slow motion. Whipping his cape, he immediately teleported in front of the group and held out his arms, waiting for the blast. It didn't take long, and the pain was excrutiating. It was as if every fiber of his being was on fire and being torn apart molecule by molecule.
Succumbing to the pain, he fell to his knees. Beast Boy was already down to ground level and at his side. "It's going to be alright buddy, we're here for you..."
His voice faded out of Kyd's attention as he slowly and painfully turned around to a sight that made him nearly cry.
Trigon had gotten away.
ONE FOR ONE! ALRIGHT GUYS, ONE FOR ONE!
But realistically, this is the most obvious scenario. Trigon would rather run then stand and die. He is evil, and evil doesn't know when to give in.
Review! Review and you shall have COOKIES!
