PLOT:
As he stands there holding her sister's heart in his hands, savoring the remaining rage dripping from her soul, Black Lantern Hank Hall tries his best to evoke some kind of emotion from Dawn Granger. Yet despite watching her own beloved sister slain before her very eyes, Dawn remains at peace. And peace is not an emotion which Black Lanterns can identify. But what happens when the blackness seeps into Holly's heart and she becomes a Black Lantern as well? Dawn tries her best to keep at peace but is eventually forced to flee with the two Black Lantern Hawks following close behind.
Meanwhile, as Dawn Granger's worst nightmares are realized, Donna Troy believes her dreams are finally becoming true. Her child, though rotten and oozing with puss, floats into her arms at last. Her late husband Terry looks on, an evil grin upon his face. But little Robbie is hungry. And he hungers for flesh.
The Toddler sinks his razor sharp teeth into the side of his mother's neck causing her to scream out in pain. It's this scream that alerts nearby Kid Flash and Wonder Girl to race to her rescue. Though it could be too late! The black ooze seems to course through Donna's jugular as her flesh begins to necrotize and her eyes fill with the symbol of the Black Lanterns. As the two Teen Titans look for a way out the entire building suddenly shudders and collapses in on itself trapping them inside with the demonic creatures posing as Terry and Robbie Long. And as hard as it is to believe, things are even worse outside.
Just as Lilith had retained her powers from beyond the grave, so has Black Lantern Terra. And as Beast Boy continues to resist her advances she has decided to sink the entire Titan's tower into the ground with one cataclysmic earthquake! With Lilith using her mental powers to paralyze Starfire and Cyborg in perpetual dream states, Terra closes in for the kill. But it looks like she's going to have some competition. Black Lantern Tempest and his Atlantean Crew have just arrived and they have a taste for Titan blood as well!
