Thank you for the PMs and the reviews. Truth be told, I did that because I needed ideas. I had writers block and since no one was reviewing or giving me their perspectives, I was fresh out of options to get the creativity needed to move the story forward. Now that I got the ball back in my corner, let's continue.

"Rae, calm down!"

Beast Boy called out as he and Cyborg have been attempting to wrestle the half-demoness from Kyd Wykkyd's bed. With Mammoth up, the Hive Five stood around him protectively, unsure what to do. With Kyd Wykkyd unconscious and hooked up to the machines, they were slightly afraid of the prospect of having to take on an angry Raven.

"FUCKING SHIT CYBORG!" Raven screamed uncharacteristically, her eyes red. "SOMEONE'S GOING TO PAY FOR THIS!"

"Then wait til he gets up Rae." Beast Boy morphed into a Gorilla and lifted Raven before throwing her out of the room. The door closed and he nodde at Cyborg, who immediately punched in a few codes into the computer nearby, locking the room from further entrance. "Okay, now that she is taken care of, we need to work on whatever the heck happened over there."

"That's right." Robin stepped towards the HIVE members and narrowed his eyes. "What happened to Kyd Wykkyd out there? What was all of that?"

"Fuck if I know snotmuncher!" Gizmo exclaimed, looking at Kyd with worry. "I've never seen anything like it..."

"Yeah." Mammoth crossed his arms. "I've known Kyd since he appeared at the HIVE academy. When Brother Blood was..." He shuddered slightly. "Testing our abilities, I have never seen Kyd being able to do that."

"He kinda reminded of Raven..." Beast Boy spoke up softly. "His eyes and his size getting bigger, and those creepy black shadowy stuff..."

"You're right." Robin looked at Kyd's figure. "He might be similar to Raven. She might know more about him if we ask."

"We should probably wait until she calm down..." Cyborg trailed off. Everyone else nodded in agreement, not wanting to think of the consequences of an angry Raven.

"OPEN THE FUCKING DOOR! DO YOU HEAR ME!?"

Raven continued to pound on the door, her knock going from loud and threatening to slow and tiring. With her last knock, she left her hand on the door and sighed, calming down slightly. Taking a step back, she sat on the floor with her back to the wall with her head down, her thoughts and emotions running rampant. Keeping her hands to her ears, she attempted to drown out the sounds in her mind.

"That little shit better be alright, that way I can whoop him later!" - Brave

"I hope he's okay..." - Compassion.

"Bastard didn't wake us up! He should pay!" - Rude.

"Maybe he was worried for our safety." Wisdom

"At least he's here in the tower." - Happy.

"What if he leaves again...?" - Timid.

'Everyone shut up!' Raven screamed internally before thinking of what Timid said, allowing it to sink in. Standing up, she looked at the door and softly rubbed her arms, unsure of what to do.

"We can't let him leave again." - Affection.

Nodding to herself, Raven walk to the door and lifted her hand to the knock on the door before being interrupted again.

"You know, you could have just phased through when you were thrown out." - Knowledge.

Facepalming, Raven sighed and walked through the wall and into the room.

"I was wondering how long it would take for you to remember you can do that." Beast Boy spoke cheekily, only to be smacked in the back of the head by Cyborg.

"Are you okay Raven?"

"Everything's fine." She looked at Cyborg with a nod before turning to Robin and the rest of the HIVE FIVE. "Do you guys mind leaving the room for a moment. I promise, on my honor as a titan I will not harm him."

"No way Nosepicker!" Gizmo began ranting. "I don't know who you think you are, but you can't just waltz in like you think you know Kyd! We've known him since we started this gang, and there's no way I'm going to let you-"

"We'll give you some alone time." Jinx responded with some ice in her voice, with Gizmo turning and looking at her as if she had maggots for brains. "Come on guys. You all too." She looked at the titans, Beast Boy specifically before towing Gizmo and her friends out.

"Alright... Raven, you know what you're doing?" Robin gave her a look of uncertainty. "We really have no idea what Kyd is capable of, and he is still a villain..."

"It's fine. Just go." Raven gave him a soft smile before sending him out of the room with a shove, closing the door behind him and locking it.

As the room cleared, Raven walked to the bed and sat on it, her hand on Kyd's forehead. "You're a fucking idiot..." She spoke softly. "But I guess you're my idiot. I don't know if you can hear this, but when you wake up, we are going to need to talk." Smiling slightly, she lowered herself and gently held him close. Even through her tender moments, she felt a firey wrath build itself inside her chest.

"When I find that son of a bitch, I am going to tear his insides out and force feed it to his corpse." Rage spoke, her voice solemn yet sounding every bit as threatening as it was a promise.

"Ugh..." Trigon groaned as he limped away, his eyes burning with an intense anger of the likes he never before felt. "If I knew he had HIS lineage, I would have prepped more." Already miles out of Jump City and in the surrounding woods, he collapsed onto a tree tiredly. "He getting to full strength also is an obstacle, one that must be remedied... Curse this body!"

Trigon roared out in pain as he clasped his leg that was impaled during battle. Only possessing the vessel, he didn't have access to his natural demonic healing. "A possessed vessel, no matter how great, can never match a fully-powered demon... and if he knows the extent of his bloodline, then I most definitely will need assistance..." Sighing to himself, he then howled in pain as one of his fingers dug into the impaled wound. Drawing blood, he began to slowly write on the tree he was leaning on. "I only hope this is worth the risk..." Speaking out in a chant, he began.

"From the Fires of The Deep They have Ascended,

They Bring the Light as Their Lords Demanded.

Your Lord calls upon His Legionnaire.

Tears of Babylon Befallen from His Grace.

He who lead The Nations Drink the Wine,

His Tongue forked with Lies to Bring all Astray.

Let his Promise be Kept,

For He has a debt to be Pay.

May His Word be Binding and Ring True.

Come Forth, Champion of Thy Lord!"

Slamming his hand on the symbols drawn on the now bloody tree, a bright light emitted reddened plant, followed by an explosion. Bits and pieces of the tree flew in all directions as sawdust clogged the air around. Waving his hand while keeping the other hand in front of his mouth to keep anything from flying in, Trigon narrowed his eyes at the figure that was in front of him. Shrouded in light blinding to the average human, the stranger descended closer to the ground, yet didn't touch it with his feet. Upon closer inspection, it looked as though he wasn't flying, but floating. More lights flared out from behind the figure, taking the shape of wings made of light without an outline.

"I see you haven't lost your theatricality." Trigon spoke dryly.

"Nor has your sense of sarcasm been dulled." Replied the figure. "To what do I owe the pleasure of being summoned by the most feared of Daemon?"

"I have called upon you to repay a debt you owe me, or do you not remember?"

"It's been quite a while since you've done the deed, Trigon. I'm sure there is a statute of limitations on favors..."

"The Destruction of Ancient Egyption on the behalf of your God would have no such thing. Don't dare play a dirty human trick on me." Trigon gave a smirk, though his eyes showed annoyance. The figure put his hands up in a mocking surrender.

"Lie to Trigon the Terrible? I would never!" He giggled slightly, like a mad man. "But you aren't truly yourself yet, are you Trigon? You are locked in that meat suit. Didn't Moses have you sealed away when you did something similar...?"

"It's not important." Trigon waved it away. "What is important is the problem I am facing now, Zephiriah."

At the mention of his name, Zephiriah straightened himself out, the light around him dulling. "Why have you summoned me, Trigon?"

"Do you remember Asgaroth?"

"The Ancient One? Yes I do, in fact I remember what had happened on that fateful day clearly. I was there to see your rival perish by your own treacherous hand. Pity though, for a Daemon he was quite noble..."

"He has a successor."

"You lie." Zephiriah's eyes widened at the prospect. "You killed them all and devoured their corpses after betraying their father... Is that not how you rose to power?"

"I would not lie about this. That is why I have called upon you." Trigon's eyes glowed with an ominous red. "I demand that you destroy him. In return for bringing me his corpse, I will give to you a valuable treasure. My blessings."

"Why would I, an Angel, need the blessings of Trigon the Terrible?"

"To take my daughter. Do you remember her Zephiriah?"

"Ah yes, the luscious dame..." He licked his lips at the memory. "Even as a baby, I hath known her broad future. But still, what would I do with a halfling?"

"I believe we both know about the benefits of a halfling. Or do you think I don't know of your ambition, oh Usurper?"

"...Will you swear it unto me?"

"It was already agreed upon."

Any one who walked near the words would later report a strange laughter echoing through the land, a sound as chilling as Grim Reaper sickle slicing in the air.

"Where am I- Oh wait. I can talk. I must be back in my own mind. Again." Kyd sighed and looked around the empty void. "Is anyone there?"

"I guess my name is 'anyone'." A voice called out. Mud turned and saw another version of himself, yet it looked different. He seemed more... ferocious-looking would be the better term. Eyes that were pure black, with a black cape, fangs protruding out of his mouth, and his hands...

"You can stop staring, you know." He flexed his claws and lightly inspected them before looking back at Kyd. "Do you know who I am?"

"A part of me?" Kyd guessed. The figure smirked and shook his head.

"Close. I have been with you since your conception. I have only been asleep until recently."

"...You're my demonic side." Kyd tried again.

"You're getting closer. Could your demonic side have taken on Trigon like I have?"

"Like you have?"

"I was the one that took over."

"Wait, Knowledge spoke of you. You're Rage."

"Correct."

"Why aren't you in... you know, Rage mode inside my body?"

"Because at the moment, someone is keeping my docile and civil, even if they don't realize it."

"Who?"

"You will see." Rage leaned forward. "Kyd, when I send you back, it's imperative that you learn more of yourself."

"What do you mean?"

"You must know who you are, where you came from, who bore you into this plane of existence. Your emotions and I have talked and came to that agreement. Whatever is happening, it's big."

"How am I supposed to figure that stuff out?"

"I don't know, that's your problem."

With that, Rage snapped his fingers and Kyd woke up to the real world.

Turning his head to the side, he saw Raven staring down at him as she held him close. He saw her beautiful smile, with a tear slowly moving down her face.

'Good morning sunshine.'

"I'm glad you're okay..." Raven frowned slightly before tightening her hold on Kyd. "We need to talk."

I hope this is the kind of stuff you guys like :D
