Oh no....

A few months after the crisis of Raven was finished. Report of people hallucinating about seeing monsters were happening around the world. The Justice League was able to prevent any deaths about the report.

This type of trouble that involves monsters is handled by the magical people of the League.

At the Hall of Justice, the league was having a meeting about the reports around the world.

Sups: "These are done, law-abiding citizens."

Diana: "It is not also an isolated incident. Around the world, similar reports were happening but because Raizen is keeping an eye out. No deaths other than minor injuries were gained by the victims or the assailants."

Hawk man: "We got lucky we have him. I couldn't imagine the death toll if these events were not stopped."

Daina: "We already ask Raizen if he could stop it all together but he only said that he need to know where the source comes from to stop those paranormal activities."

Batman: "I will meet with our specialist to see what they got on this problem"

At the mansion of Bruce, the word "Constantine" is written all over.

A few days ago, in the "Lucky Devil Casino". Constantine is playing against a demon and another person who is covered in a coat. Constantine and the demons tried to probe the man in a coat but were hit with a backlash so they just continue to play cards. In the last game where they were betting it all. The man in a coat bet a "Wish Rune". The other two ask what it is and the man gave them a sample. He gave them a sample wish rune and told them that they just needed to say their wish and it will be done.

Constantine wished for an auto refilling whiskey bottle then in an instant, his wish has been granted. When the demons saw that the "Wish Rune" is legit, they wanted to add the sample "wish rune" to the bet so when they win, they will have two "wish runes" rather than one.

The man only asks the demons their treasures and from Constantine is to read all the books inside the house of mystery.

All the bets were settled and they showed their cards. The demons thought they won but Constantine has the higher card. The demon accused the guy of cheating and wanted to throw a fit but wasn't able to move. Then the man in coat showed his card and both Constantine and the demons were shocked to see a royal flush in diamonds. Now the demons want to fight the two but they were still unable to move. The man then conjured a white flame that slowly floated towards the three demons and in an instant consumed their body and not even their soul was spared.

Man in coat: *looking at Constantine* "Want to argue too?"

Const: "I'm good mate... But who are you?"

MIC: "Raizen"

Const: "So you're with the Justice League"

R: "Enough about that. If this is League business then I would have brought Batman. Just honor the bet and you would not be another dust in the wind."

Const: "You just wanted to say that, didn't you?"

R: "Yes"

Const: "Alright, but I warn you. Some things would be better to remain hidden."

R: "I can handle that. You're still not dead yet, right?"

Const: "Suit yourself."

R: "What about you Jason Blood?"

JBld: "I will talk to him some other time. Though I must say, I feel much better being near you. As if a burden it not placed on me."

R: "Because he is being quiet in my presence. But I and Constantine must go now. A lot of books to read and such."

Back at Batman visiting Zatanna...

When Batman entered Zatanna's dressing room. She notice that he was not alone.

Zt: "I thought you work alone most of the time when doing information gathering?"

Bats: "What?"

Zatanna points out the stuffed animal besides Batman.

Rsa: "Love your showgirl"

Bats: "So you're here too."

Rsa: "Not much being here as much as I like. Still busy keeping people from killing themselves"

Zt: *picked up the stuffed toy* "How do you even work? I know reanimation spells but can't even feel any energy from this toy. krow uoy woh em wohS. hmm... Nothing."

Rsa: "Girl, you need to be on Merlin's or Wizard Shazam's level to even begin understanding how I control this stuffed toy. Besides, I know some other spells that block magic altogether, so yeah."

Batman: *looks at Zatanna* "Do you know the location of John Constantine?"

Zt: "No."

Bats: "You must have some idea?"

Zt: "We don't keep in touch."

Before Batman can talk some more. Boston Brand took over his body.

DM: "Z Batman needs to find Constantine."

Deadman wanted to talk more but was expelled from Batman's body.

Bats: *ask Zatanna* "What is going on?"

Zatanna: "I'll tell you on the way to John's"

Bats: "Wait. *looks at the stuffed toy* Do you know where is John Constantine?"

Rsa: "I thought you would never ask."

It then created a portal big enough to pass through.

Rsa: "After you guys." *gestures to go through the portal*

DM: "Neat"

Zatanna walks through first then Batman and Deadman.

At the House of Mystery, John Constantine got alerted that someone came directly inside the house.

Const: "Bloody hell, how did you guys get here? Zatanna? Did you do this? No, wait.. you are not in your most powerful yet. Not Batman and a ghost."

Rsa: "Don't bother thinking John, I did it."

Const: *looks at the talking stuffed animal* "Who are you supposed to be? Besides a talking toy."

Rsa: "Don't you remember John? She certainly remembers" *the stuffed animal got picked up by 'orchid'*

Const: "Doesn't ring any bell"

Rsa: "Maybe you want a refreshment to remember"

The stuffed toy gestures its paws then the whiskey in John's pocket floated in front of him. John then remembers who he is.

Const: "You changed to a stuffed toy now?"

Rsa: "No man. I'm just using this as a medium because my real body is currently busy preventing people from killing each other around the world."

Const: "These people always kill each other every day."

Rsa: "Not unless they are seeing this."

Raizen(SA) then change the perception of Zatanna, Batman, and John towards each other. Now they see the other people in the group as demons. After a few seconds, the illusion is undone.

Bats: "So that was what people saw."

Zt: "It felt real. I almost cast magic to kill you guys."

Const: "That is indeed bad."

Rsa: "It's getting worst. *getting the attention of everybody* Because of my interference, the number of victims was escalating. Whoever did this, needs negative emotions coming from fear to power itself."

The stuffed toy floated to Batman and put its paw to his shoulder. Now Batman can see and hear paranormal stuff.

Rsa: "If Batman will be going, he needs to at least know what we are facing."

Bats: "Why didn't you do it in the dressing room?"

Rsa: "I was hoping for John to do it but he would only let you see Boston"

Const: "Anyway, let us walk and talk. We need to get to Ritchie's place to get something"

Fast forward to the front of the House of Ritchie Simpson

Bats: "What are those?" *looking at the floating apparitions*

DM: "Shrouds. They deliver souls to hell."

The shrouds were surrounding Batman.

Zt: "They are drawn to you"

SH1: "This one has cheated us many times...It is vexing..."

Bats: "Boo!

Rsa: "It's entertaining and all that but can you guys leave first?"

The shrouds looked at the stuffed animal and become stiff.

SH1: "You are o--"

Before it finished, Raizen(sa) wave its paw and the shrouds got vanished. Boston(DM) almost got caught up from the wave.

Const: "You didn't let them finish"

Rsa: "Like what you said John, there are some things that need to be left hidden."

Const: "Not from you apparently. Still can't believe that it only took you a minute to read all the books from the house. Your either gifted or..."

Rsa: "I don't need to be that. It will chain me to a job if I become one."

Zt: "What are you guys talking about?"

Const: "It's better if you realize it by yourself."

After that, Ritchie opens the door and lets them in. A few bickering later, Ritchie gave the item that John needs and they went to a hospital where a patient is in a coma. It was said that he tried to kill his neighbors multiple times but always failed. The team chooses him because he is one of the few people that still keep seeing demons multiple times.

The time in the hospital has gone smoothly but Constantine knows that the stuffed toy is keeping any magic at bay.

They returned to Ritchie only to see him lying on the ground and Jason Blood was also there along with the shrouds. Jason did not run away this time because he was being held by something. The group got closer to Ritchie and the shrouds back off but did not leave when they saw the stuffed toy again.

Before John could cast a spell, Batman stabs the heart of Ritchie with a syringe that restarted his heart.

At the House of Mystery, the group was able to know the person with the ring that John and Zatanna got from the memory of the man.

When the locator spell of John did not work, he got an idea to look for help from someone. Batman did not say much but Zatanna wanted to tell John that they can find Felix Faust with the help of the stuffed toy. The problem is that she was not able to voice her idea because Raizen(sa) stops her from doing so. The stuffed toy become smaller and leap to the shoulder of Zatanna and looked at her shaking its head.

In a swap, deep inside a forest. Constantine got the attention of the swamp thing to ask for a favor but he would not help John. Zatanna then tried to talk to the swamp thing and he agrees because she at least care for the green. The swamp thing then looked at the stuffed toy on her shoulders.

SwThing: "Thank you for helping the green."

Rsa: "No big deal man."

Zt: "What is it?"

SwThing: "He healed the green above and below the ocean. Now the planet is much healthier as though it can breathe properly again."

Bats: "There is far less carbon dioxide in the air now than predicted after the UN summit with Atlantis."

Rsa: "It also the reason that I have fans from the environmental groups because someone got a hold of a video when I have regrown a forest that illegal loggers took down. Now the climate change will be in its regular schedule of change not by the people forcing it."

Zt: "I didn't know that something like that happened."

Rsa: "Well, you don't need to worry about it. One way or another, some people will still help the environment. I just have the means to increase the scale. Anyway... *looks at the* ...can you help us?"

The swamp thing nods and covers them with green. A moment later they were near the place of Felix Faust but they don't see his abode.

Bats: "Is that where Faust lives."

Const: "You can see it? *looks at the stuffed toy on the shoulder of Zatanna* Of course you can."

Zt: "He can see what?"

Const: "The dwelling of Faust that should be covered in multiple protective spells. I could not break in there but someone could." *looks at Jason Blood*

While Faust was busy reading a book. Etrigan barges into his house.

The fight went on similar to the movie and Faust was apprehended by Batman.

Faust: "Why are you here? I haven't done anything that warrants this kind of response."

Then the talk about how the situation outside was done by Faust but he doesn't have any idea about it. Batman then tells them who sent them to Faust and that is when the realization hit them.

They were able to go inside the House of Mystery when Ritchie let them. He then told them why he did it but John also told him that Destiny is using him. Then the crystal force itself to the chest of Ritchie and now Destiny is in plain sight. Constantine talk to Destiny but he just annoyed the guy.

Destiny: "A god does not prattle with mortals."

Destiny tried to blow up the house but he wasn't able to.

Rsa: "Oh man, five hundred years of planning? And you call yourself a god. Not even Merlin will call himself that even when though he is stronger than you."

Everybody looked at a man that was facing a shelf of books to their right.

Bats: "Raizen, how long have you been here?"

R: "I told you before that I have abilities that are borderline omnipotent if someone looks at it in different angle"

Destiny: "Who are you!?"

Destiny to use his powers then he dropped down on all fours.

R: "I was waiting for you to show up."

Bats: "You told me before that you could stop what is happening around the world without a source."

R: "Well I already who the culprit is from the start but if he knew I am on to him then he will just stay silent until I was gone."

Const: "That is why you let us do the goose chase."

R: "Now that he is here, I can destroy his soul. Not like what Merlin did in the past of just taking away the mortal body."

Constantine then see a familiar flame that destroyed the three demons in the casino. Destiny was ngulf with the white flame and his soul was gone completely.

DM: "Wouldn't you get in trouble with destroying the soul of anyone?"

R: "Not really. What I am doing to the souls is purifying it and turn it into energy again to create new souls. It would had happened to you if Rama Kushna did not took pity on you."

DM: "So you just recycle the soul?"

R: "Basically"

Raizen snapped his finger and orchid reforms again after being burnt. The people who fell victim to the demon's spell are now waking up from their coma and will probably get back to their lives again.
