Home is where the heart is

[Zatanna Zatara]

Zatanna was wondering New York alone this night. She had left a clone back at her room. Zatanna wasn’t sure if she wanted anyone to know she had gone home. Home is where she wanted to be and nobody was to stop her from going home. Even though Zatanna still gone to school here she was told to go straight to school and back to the mountain. It was more for her safety is what they told her. Zatanna wasn’t sure why they were worried about her. The streets of New York were her streets.

Moving around she founder herself passing the Museum. With a smile she kept walking pass it till she reached a park. From here she sat down and enjoyed the night time sky. Also though she wanted to make sure no crime has hit her beloved home. It has been a while since she had actually patrolled this area with her father and it was time she did this tonight.

[Klarion]

Klarion had only one goal in mind. Create chaos. And that was just what he was going to do. He went through some stuff through his head. 'Should I release some monsters from the 32^th dimension?No no did that already. How about sending this place to mars? No no I did that in scotland 10000 years ago.' While he was thinking Teekl made a small purr and a meow. "Perfect idea Teekl!" He shouted not caring if anybody heard him, most people think he would just be crazy any ways. He started walking in to an alley way and just floated onto the roof, again not caring about if anybody some him. He reached the roof as Teekl meowed again. "I know where the museum is!" He opened one of his portals and backflipped in.

He arrived just in front of the natural history museum. The doors were locked but that didn't stop him. he just raised a hand and a the door illuminated red and in a flash the door disappeared. He went inside not even 5 steps away from the door and he found what he needed. Standing big and gigantic, the skeleton of a T-rex. "Know for some fun." His eyes turned red as he raised a hand, he started chanting, as he was going to revive something that was alive when Klarion was a child. "trever ot rouy gnivil morf" He repeated it several times as he something started happening at the dinosaurs feet. the first layers of blood, skin and muscles started to grow. It started growing faster and faster, paused a while at the body to grow the organs but it still it was a magnificent sigh

t. As the transformation completed the beast let out a terrifying roar, the which alerted all the guards and probably the surrounding areas. As the guards came and pulled out there guns. "FREEZE!." Klarion just looked at one of them and said. "If you so say." he snapped his fingers and all the guards were surrounded in ice, not normal ice a red tinted ice. "I always wanted a pet dinosaur" The dinosaur crashed through the building into the street as Klarion wandered further into the museum.

[Zatanna Zatara]

Zatanna heard commotion coming from the streets. Runnin to the yelling her eyes went wide. "How in the world." Looking at the dinasour crashing through things. "egac siht rousanid." Zatanna watched the dinosaur being caged up. Looking at the people she took a deep breath. "Nobody get near this cage! Who ever did this would be taken care of!"

People watched Zatanna knowing who she was but didn't trust her words since her father was no where to be seen. They all ran away scared.

Zatanna shook her head and started to walk to the museum where the dinosaur came from. She knew only one person who could have done this. Walking through she tried he best to keep calm knowing his magic was stronger then her own. "wohs em eht yaw ot hctiw yob." A line soon appeared and wih a sme Zatanna began to follow it. Hoping to be able to getto him before he figured she was following him.

[Klarion]

Klarion kept walking deeper into the museum. "What are we looking for again?" Teekl just made a small purring noise. "Ooh right!" He started speeding up passing several exhibits till he reached the medieval part of the museum. He walked towards a piece of medieval armor. He touched the armor as a glowing red light spread through out the armor, as it walked from his podium, he always enjoyed bring armor to life. Klarion placed a little jewel in the armor. "I need you to guard the way in here." The armor nodded and started walking.

Klarion, and Teekl, had a brilliant idea of turning all the mannequins into living things. His own army of brain dead, immortal beings. Who would follow any of his commands. The armor he had just resurrected picked up a big sword and walked back the way he came from. Klarion watched him as a shimmer caught his eye. Klarion crouched down taking a closer look as Teekl meowed again. "Yeah you're right back to business." He stood back up and started touching all the mannequins in the area. There were only about 4 more, 2 soldiers and 2 archers. Again he put crystals on them. They stood high to attention. Klarion just rub his hands in joy. He was going to create so much chaos.

[Zatanna Zatara]

Zatanna saw the armor and her eyes went wide. She wasn’t sure if she would be able to take down the spell. This did scare her. All she could think of was a way to get past the armor. Taking a deep breath she closed her eyes and put her hands up. Opening her eyes they had a small glow to them. Her powers were growing stronger sure they were not as good as Klarion but she was getting better since their last fight.

“Romra ezeerf ezeerf ezeerf.” She said. Watching the armor actually freeze she smiled. Thinking to herself she began to walk past it and headed into the room to see the mannequins were gone. She stood up straight ready to fight. Still she could see the path that Klarion was going and she kept following.

With all the mannequins gone Zatanna was worried on what chaos was about to happen. She knew she had to get to Witch Boy. Getting closer she saw Teekl and glared down at the cat. Hoping to put a spell on the cat she began to think fast hoping to be fast enough. “Lkeet ezeerf.” She said. Trying hard not be to loud but loud enough for the spell to work.

Zatanna knew that the spell probably won't work. It won't be the first time that they tried to attack the cat first and wasn't able to. Witch Boy made sure his cat was safe at all times.

[Klarion]

Klarion was know in the egyptian part of the exhibit he was know reviving what seemed like gods carrying various scythes and such stuff. Teekl wasn't on his shoulder and Teekl was know on the ground sniffing the ground behind Klarion. "Teekl what are you doing?" Teekl just made a small hissing sound. "Is that right? Well lets show our little trespasser how to have a good time." Klarion rubbed his hands in a evil cliche way.

In a fast movement he revived the rest of the mannequins in the area and also gave the little crystals. "Revive the rest of the armor, mannequins and statues. I'll take care of the intruder." The mannequins made a small salute and head in different directions. As clarion gestured a hand which made the line follow a living mannequin. Klarion and Teekl followed the line to area he and Teekl found perfect.

He whispered to Teekl something as the cat sat in the middle of the hall way. Klarion made a weird gesture with his hands as small little red dots popped all over his fingers. He pressed on hand onto the wall, he then did the next hand. He then placed both his feet on the wall as he started crawling up the wall step by step. He was know right above where Teekl was sitting as she saw a figure heading towards Teekl. As she said her spell his feet and arm froze as he plummeted next to Teekl. "Not fair! Not fair at all!" his hands glowed again as the ice melted on him and Teekl's. He stood up as Teekl jumped on his shoulder. He conjured a shield in his left hand and a fireball the size of a basketball in his right. "Payback time!" He threw the fireball at Zatanna.

[Zatanna Zatara]

Zatanna smiled when she had seen the cat had actually got hit with her spell. With a smile she looked at Klarion then saw him melt the ice. Glaring at him she really just wanted to take him down but knew she had to watch herself. Seeing the fireball going to his hands as big as a basketball she moved a little. Seeing the fireball she got hit by it. Landing on the floor she looked at him and stood up in pain.

“I don’t know what your planning but you are not going to get away with it.” Zatanna warned “you better just give up”

Looking at him she took a deep breath and smiled “Ezeerf ezeerf ezeerf.” She hoped that she could freeze him and able to take him down that way.

[Klarion]

Klarion smirked as she saw her tumble down in pain. His smirk soon faded as she stood back up. "Shame I thought that would stop you.". He dispersed the shield created two more fireballs. Ha I will always get away. The fire balls seemed to dimmer and suddenly burnt out as Klarion started laughing. "Acting brave against a opponent who can blow you into smithereens is really, really stupid. But then again all you hero types are stupid."

He looked her dead in the eye as she casted her next spell. the only thing that appeared on him was a blue sparkle. "You're really fond of that spell aren't you? Well this is how it's supposed to work. ezeerf." he made a hand gesture as a small blue spark flew towards Zatanna.

[Zatanna Zatara]

“It’ll take more than that to keep me down.” Zatanna said. She had grown stronger so things like that will only cause so much damage. Standing up straight she shook her head. “Please Klarion you are just a young boy! Note why your name is Witch Boy.” Zatanna said Yeah okay so she wasn’t being smart at this point but she wanted to see if he would back down if she acted bigger than him.

Seeing that her spell didn’t work she glared at him. Hearing the same spell being thrown at her she began to speak fast. “erif.” As fire left her hands to stop the ice she looked at him. “tlem roolf.” She was hoping he would either sink and get stuck.

[Klarion]

If Klarion was an immortal wizard, and less cocky, he would have noticed she had gotten stronger. But Klarion was a lord of chaos and his powers seemed limitless. "I have more, plenty more." he said as he fired another fireball. "This coming from you! I saw the rise and fall of the roman empire! I saw Hitler kill himself! I've met the very first meta-human in existence so don't call me young!" He was getting into one of his tantrums.

Her spell did melt the floor as Klarion slowly began sinking into the floor, put Klarion just made a phfft noise. "Is that the best you can do?" He said in a taunting voice as the melted floor began bubbling as a weird kind of looking gas started rising from the floor. In a few minutes Klarion was standing in a dent in the floor. As he floated to the edge. "Know where was I? Thats right!" He stepped his foot on the floor causing the the ground and walls to break sending some rocks down to Zatanna.

[Zatanna Zatara]

“All I can say is bring it on.” Zatanna said She glared at him watching his moves. She was scared of him yes but she had to stop him. “Then act your age Klarion.” She couldn’t believe the lord of chaos acted like a child by throwing a tantrums.

As he made that stupid phfft noise she glared at him. Her spells were not good enough and it just sucked. She would have to come up with something. Watching him Zatanna took a step back and was ready for whatever he would throw at her. Seeing the ground and walls began to break she saw that the rocks were going to her. She was hit by a few of them causing her to land on the floor. Getting up in pain she glared at him.

“Is that the best.” Zatanna mocked. “skcor kcatta mih” A few of the rocks moved up in the air and were flying to him. The hit had caused Zatanna to be weak and it caused her powers to be a weaker.

[Klarion]

He snickered at her sudden voice of confidence. I mean she actually thought she could defeat him. He could only laugh. His laugh died down slowly."How can I act my age if I'm ageless? Thats like a immortal man to kill himself." Teekl meowed in his ear. "Well he wasn't really immortal he just thought he was."

He couldn't help but smile as a few rocks hit her. While waiting for her to stand up, he made a small mirror out of a few spare rocks. He couldn't help but ogle himself. After she got up he threw the makeshift mirror behind him. "No I can do a lot more." He was to distracted mocking her back to dodge the first rock. It hit him straight him right in the head. He made a small growl as he saw the rest of the rocks coming. He raised his hand as a red shield deflected the rocks.

"Is that the best you can..." He was interrupted as a the make shift mirror rocks hit him in the head. This made him really angry. His fist was glowing red. He was about to rush over and punch Zatanna when he saw a lot of rocks everywhere. Somehow his tantrum died down, and said in the most calmest voice. "You know this place is getting a bit stuffy. Lets take this outside." He snapped his fingers and he teleported himself and Zatanna outside."Know back to business." His fist lit up again as he slammed it into the ground. A giant pointy rocks started hurrying towards Zatanna.

[Zatanna Zatara]

Looking at him she took a deep breath “You have an age Witch boy.” She looked at the cat and wished she could destroy it or at least hurt it so Witch Boy would actually leave. “Sad how you talk to a cat Witch Boy.” Zatanna said She figured if she got him mad enough that he would slip up and something would back fire on him.

Watching him make a small mirror she laughed. “You better not break the mirror with that face.” Zatanna watched as he threw the mirror behind him. As one of her rocks hit him in the head she smiled. Seeing the red shield she smirked. “Whats wrong Witch Boy scared of a few rocks.”

When he said that Zatanna could feel herself getting mad. IF she was as strong as her dad she would be able to put him in his place well kinda anyway. Zatanna was still weak but she had to stand up and have him tire himself out. When he said that Zatanna was about to run to him to tackle him down till her she felt the air outside around her. Looking around she looked at him. She was worried about being outside that civilians could get hurt. “reirrab dnuora hctiw yob dna flesym.” A barrier moved around them and the museum giving them enough room to fight so nobody got hurt while they were.

Right then and there she saw him hit the ground. Watching a giant pointy rocks coming her away she dogged a few of them and was able to place a shield around her. Though one of the rocks were able to break through and hit her in the arm. Going down again she took a deep breath and got back up.

With a smile Zatanna began to get a good idea. “wons mrots.” Once it started Zatanna looked at him and changed her outfit so she was in white hoping to blend in a little. Then she clapped her hands together “Etaerc annataz snoisulli.” Soon numerous copies of Zatanna were all around. With a smile all the Zatanna’s looked at him. She tried hard to not show that she was getting tired hoping if she stood strong he would just give up having no more fun messing around.

[Klarion]

"Yeah an age longer then your puny mind can comprehend Zatanna!" It was true his age was longer then any person in this world has counted to. And maybe times that by another million. Teekl hissed at her for insulting him and Klarion. Klarion petted Teekl and whispered something in his ear. The cat was now more peaceful. "This coming from the girl who talks to a robin, an alien, a clone, a talking fish, a sassy black girl, the daughter of an assassin, and a cocky speedster. So yeah call me weird. At least I hang out with what you call adults. One of them is bald for god sakes.

Her comment about the mirror made him angry again. He bottled it up like he did with most of his anger. He looked at her dead in the eye and said. "By the looks of your head I should be." He and his cat snickered.

He snickered at how she made a barrier around the two of them. He could easily break it in two and use the broken shards to kill all nearby civilians, but this seemed more fun. He started laughing as she made a shield around her. "Whats wrong Zatanna scared of a few rocks." He couldn't help but laugh out loud. Using her own words against her. Genius. As she conjured the snow storm he lifted his hand making the an area around him making the snow melt. He looked as she turned her clothes white. "White? Really? I know it's winter in here but still." As she made her clones, he couldn't help but feel a little impressed. "I see you learned something from our fights." He felt a bit smug, then realized the trouble he was in. He had to even it out. He put Teekl on the floor and told him in his mind to stay still. He flick his fingers which made Teekl grow into a monstrous beast. He raised his hand as Teekl glowed as clones of Teekl appeared. There were as many clones as there were Zatanna's. "Ok Teekl's shred them to pieces." He raised his hand as all the Teekl's attacked. Except for one.

[Zatanna Zatara]

“Oh you don’t know what I can comprehend and what I can.” Zatanna said. Hearing the cat hiss she glared down at it and smirked. “Its sad that you have to hid behind the cat Witch Boy.” Zatanna laughed “At least I have friends Witch Boy not a cat. A cat who only hisses and only a threat when you make your cat into a threat.”

Zatanna was starting to wonder if her smart ass was working or not. She had changed being around the team. Hanging around Wally helped a little too. “Looks like you need hair spray why don’t you go steal some. Since those hair horns could use some more.” Zatanna said with a smirk.

Zatanna was getting tired and wished someone on her team would find her. She wasn’t sure how much she could take from him. “No I’m not scared of rocks.” Looking at him Zatanna saw the snow melt she just hoped he won’t make the snow stop. As long as he blind from the storm she would be safe. First the storm had to get stronger and all she could hope that it would. “When it gets stronger you won’t be able to see and I blend in more.” Zatanna glared at him hoping he would just stop. That was till she sat Teekl grow and more came.

As she watched her clones vanish she looked at him. “wons ezeerf dnuora lkeet dna hctiw yob.”
