Trigon Part 3

Trigon Part 3 is the eleventh episode the season 4 finale of Rise of The Teen Titans.

### Plot

The world has been taken over by trigon completely now that Raven has surrendered to her destiny as a portal that brings her evil father Trigon to Earth to conquer it. The remaining Titans are searching for a way to bring her back so they may find a way to defeat Trigon and save the universe.

### Titans Vs. Demon Titans

The battles that Starfire, Cyborg, and Beast Boy are fighting against their evil clones are proving to be some of the most arduous and tough fights they have ever endured. They know they must continue so that Trigon's attention stays on them and not on Robin, who is busy searching for Raven. Nega Starfire escapes from the battle long enough to reveal the Titans' plan to Trigon. Trigon simply replies that he already knew about their plan (before *they* even thought of it). The demon then explains that the depth of his power is incomprehensible to the Titans, and though some remnant of Raven exists, the Raven they knew is gone forever, and thus their mission is of no threat to him.

As the tide of the battle above ground starts to turn against the Teen Titans, Starfire suggests that, since they can't defeat themselves, maybe they could defeat each other. They then switch opponents; Cyborg defeats Nega Beast Boy, Starfire defeats Nega Cyborg, and Beast Boy defeats Nega Starfire. The clones then turn into wisps of red energy that return to each of the Titans' bodies, resulting in the Titans' victory. However, Trigon himself approaches them and states that their victory was pointless, Superboy and Blue Beetle tried to attack him but get turn to stones since all they did was prolong their suffering. He then sends a herd of fire demons on them, and the Titans retreat.

### Raven

Meanwhile, Nightwing tries to comfort Raven, he has found, saying he is there to take her back. Raven seems to have failed and didn't have her powers and tries to flee from him deeper into the cavern. Nightwing keeps up with her and manages to gain her trust by saying he can bring her back.

As Nightwing and Raven walk back the way they came he tells her a story. Nightwing says Raven was good, brave, and a wonderful friend. Even though she fought for the good guys, she was always held back by the bad side lurking within her. Nightwing is interrupted by a horde of fire demons. He successfully escapes them while keeping the helpless Raven out of harm's way. Raven then addresses Nightwing by name and asks him why he is doing this. Nightwing said, "We're Family!" She recognizes the story Nightwing told her as if it were a nightmare and continues to believe that Trigon is unstoppable and nothing can be done. Her powers are gone now that Trigon no longer needs her and everything has been left hopelessly ruined. Nightwing says it may be the end of the world but everyone is still together and fighting. Raven cries out, "Look at me, Dick. There's nothing I can do. There isn't any hope!" He responds, "Then I guess I'll just have to have enough hope for the both of us." He and Raven walk to the surface.

### Deathstroke

Elsewhere underground, Slade continues the search for his human body. He comes to a large metal door with a Mark of Skath that is guarded by a hulking stone-like guard with a metal mask and a big axe. The guard tells him that what he seeks may not be recovered, but Slade, with nothing else to lose, insists the guard let him through, thus ensuing a fight between the two.

Slade continues fighting the guard but is at a significant disadvantage, as he is impervious to most everything, including lava. The guard says that pure evil cannot be dominated by mortals, but Slade replies with, "Actually, I'm not such a nice guy myself." He pushes a detonator and a bomb he secretly planted on the door explodes, engulfing the guard and breaking open the door. Arrows of white light shoot out of the opening, one of them hitting Slade and restoring his human body. He welcomes the return of his flesh and blood, picks up the fallen guard's axe and heads for the exit.

### The Last Stand of Trigon

The Titans fly through the air with Trigon's minions in pursuit. They shoot most of them down, but then Robin appears to finish them off. The Titans are overjoyed to see him, but their joy quickly turns into astonishment when they see Raven's child form. Also, Starfire reveals that the Ring of Azar that Slade gave her broke, dimming the others' hope of achieving victory. Just then, Trigon commands his army to expand throughout the universe and enslave everything until all bow before him.

Nightwing explains Raven's condition to the others and says the time has come for a final attack, "Him or us. All or nothing." Nightwing comforts Raven by saying she is no longer a slave to any prophecy and she will know what to do when the time comes. Trigon then finds them and the Titans assail him full on. Slade appears wielding the guard's ax and joins the strike as well. Raven watches in amazement as Trigon takes damage. Slade is eventually knocked out and the Titans are enveloped in a massive heat ray.

### The Final Stand of Trigon

Raven runs to her immobile teammates, begging them to get up. Trigon bids her farewell and unleashes another heat ray. Raven instinctively shields herself with her powers. Trigon disparages her powers, states that he is "*her creator, her master*" and that she exists only to serve him, asserting that she survives only because he allows it. Finally, he asks, “What hope can a mere child have of defeating her all-powerful father?”

Raven scowls at Trigon's pronouncement before opening her eyes, which begin to glow with white light before an effulgence of power engulfs her, restoring her original age as she stands in a long white robe. She renounces any biological ties with Trigon as she blasts him backwards with devastating bursts of white energy. Raven proclaims that Trigon was never anything of a father to her and instead points to the monks of Azarath and the Teen Titans, whom she declares are her true family. She gains power from this knowledge as the Titans stand with her. She screams out, "Azarath Metrion Zinthos!" before a monumental burst of white energy in the form of a raven obliterates Trigon for good, then propels a wave of restorative energy that washes over part of The city is returned to the way it was before, the citizens are unfrozen, and the entire world is returned to life as a result of Raven's power.

### We Are Family

The Titans have no words for their friend. Raven throws her arms gratefully around Nightwing, thanking him for not giving up on her. Beast Boy is a little freaked out by this new smiling Raven, but she assures him that blue is her preferred garb and he is still not funny, much to his jubilation and said, "We Are Family now!". Back at the Tower, they kick off a celebration of pizza while Nightwing has a moment with Raven by the window. Although Slade survived, they will be poised to stop him just as they always have been. Raven asks him how he keeps his hopes up even against impossible odds. Nightwing tells her that she is actually the most hopeful person he has ever known. Even though everyone knew she was doomed to an apocalyptic prophecy, she chose to hope for more and fought alongside the Teen Titans. Now Raven is free to live her life fully, unencumbered by any inner demons or premonitions.

### The Post Credit Scene
