After a few hours, the Titans were coming up with a plan of action to take down Trigon and save Raven.

Demi: This happened before, right? How did it go?

Starfire: We stopped him in Hell. Raven conjured up a spell that trapped him in her gem, which is now cracked.

She showed Demi the crystal. He took it so he could get it to Raven.

Demi: I'll get to her. Maybe she can trap him again for now.

Cyborg: I got it! I traced Trigon's path to Metropolis. There are a lot of heat signatures there right now.

Robin: We need a way to get Trigon's attention for Raven to do her thing.

Demi: I'll face him. Alone. While you guys handle any other demons.

Starfire: What?

Demi: I'm the only one who can stand a chance, and you all know that. 

Beetle: Sam, he could kill you!

Demi: It'll distract him long enough. Besides, my idea should work.

Cyborg: We need to make a move, and fast. These things won't stop until we stop him.

Starfire: Okay. But once we're done, we'll help you out, okay?

Demi: We'll see.

Nightwing: I'm coming too.

They all turned around to see Nightwing, their broken team leader, on crutches.

Starfire: Dick. You're injured.

Nightwing: Don't worry. I have a contingency. 

They all nodded before going over the plan one more time before traveling to Metropolis. They were all still hesitant about Demi dealing with that devil.

Demi: You're not talking me out of this, guys. It's either this or he kills us all.

Starfire: Can that at least be a backup in case we mess up in Hell?

Demi: Alright. But I'll fight him if I have to.

Cyborg: It's now or never, guys. I can open a boom tube there, but those demons will be on to us once they realize.

Demi: I'm not waiting. But I need your guy's help to make this right.

Starfire: Alright. Let's do it.

Nightwing: You can say it this time.

Demi: Really?! Okay... Titans, Go!

Cyborg quickly opened up a boom tube that dropped them to a roof overlooking most of the city. When they all made it through, they saw Trigon on top of the Hall of Justice, demons bowing to his name.

Nightwing: Cyborg. I need a tube to Wayne Manor.

He opened a portal that sent him to the manor, leaving some unsure about his plan.

Demi: Okay. Where would Raven be?

Starfire: She might be in the Hall; Trigon must have her trapped in there.

Demi: Alright. Star, Cy, and Beetle. You guys get that devil's attention and lure him away from the Hall. Beast Boy, Robin, Kid Flash, and I will sneak our way in there. She'll know what to do with this.

Robin: Good plan. I know a way in.

Cyborg: Good news; The League just finished their business off-world and they know what's going on, so they'll be here as soon as possible.

Demi: Good. LFG, baby!

He quickly jumped off the roof down to the next, with Robin, Beast Boy, and Kid Flash following. Starfire, Cyborg, and Beetle ascended and conjured up a distraction at Trigon.

Trigon: Ah... your dear friends are here, daughter. I shall grant them a swift death for you.

He ascended into the air and began battling half the Teen Titans. Meanwhile, Robin led the other half to a hatch on the roof, which would give them access to the Hall of Justice. 

Demi: Empty?

Robin: She must be in the cells. Come on!

They quickly ran to the back of the building, where the cells were located, to find Raven locked up and restrained by cuffs that nullified her powers.

Demi: Hang on, Rae.

Raven: Sam? Sam?!

Demi brute forced the cell door, ran to Raven, and removed the cuffs from her. She immediately hugged him tightly.

Raven: I thought... I thought you were gone...

Demi: Hey, it's me.

He showed her the gem that was on her forehead, which had been concealing Trigon. She took it and got a hold of the situation.

Raven: We need to go to Hell. I can mend it there and trap him again.

She opens a portal to Hell with ease.

Robin: Wait. There are more demons out there, meaning more lives are in danger.

Kid Flash: We'll help them. You two need to get going.

Demi: Are you sure?

Beast Boy: We can handle this. The others need help anyway.

Demi: Alright. Good luck!

Robin, Beast Boy, and Kid Flash headed back outside to handle the demons terrorizing the citizens of Metropolis, buying Demi and Raven time to fix the gem. Raven went through the portal first, with Demi following.

Demi: Whoa...

When he saw Hell, it was a lot different from what he thought. There was fire, debris everywhere, and a weird structure far ahead of him. Raven pointed to it.

Raven: That's where we need to be.

Demi: Easy money.

They both began to venture to the structure, where they could end this madness. Meanwhile, the Titans were struggling with handling Trigon.

Cyborg: This isn't good!

Just then, Trigon pinned him down to the ground. Before he delivered the killing blow, a missile was shot at his head from behind, giving Cyborg a chance to back away. It was Nightwing in the Batwing.

Nightwing: Relax, Titans. I'm here.

The fight recommenced. And after a few minutes, a ship flew in from above. It was the Justice League. Superman flew out and punched Trigon in the chest, knocking him into a building.

Superman: You don't mess with my city!

The other members made it down behind him, ready to face Trigon with the Titans.

Trigon: Feeble creatures... You will not stop me.

Flash: Heard that before!

The fight once again continued, with the League using strategic methods to keep Trigon occupied. Batman managed to place sticky bombs on his back, exploding them on impact. But this fight wasn't one they could win. 

Trigon: Enough!

He unleashed a wave of dark matter, knocking all of them back. 

Trigon: Oh, daughter. Did you think---

He felt she had escaped from the Hall. He felt her presence now in Hell with Demi.

Trigon: You little---

Superman punched him in the head, but Trigon grabbed him and kicked him through the surrounding buildings. He then vanished into thin air.

Auqaman: Where'd he go?!

Starfire: Hell... Oh no...

Cyborg: We need a way there, now!

Beelte: Raven was the only one who could...

Superman: Sam is there, too?

Starfire: Yes. But they need our help!

While they were figuring that out, Demi and Raven reached the top of the structure in Hell.

Raven: Here we go.

Demi: How much time do you need?

Raven: This might take some time. I can fix it.

She put the gem in the center and began using her magic to heal the gem. Energy started enveloping her.

Raven: It's okay... I can handle this!

Just then, demons were coming up from the ground. They were sent by Trigon, no doubt. Demi pulled out his Sword, ready for the fight of his life.
