Hi! It's sure been a while since I've written fanfictions. I tend to write them according to my feelings, and what happens to be going on in my life, so that's why "Fallen" is on hiatus. Someday I'll pick it up again, no worries!

Now onto my latest endeavor, this story that you're looking at, "Truth." This one lets me play with a character that I like, and I haven't written much of, and I hope you'll have as much fun reading this as it was to write it! XD

Enjoy!

EDIT: one of the comments made by Starfire (while she's talking to Robin) may have confused you, but i fixed it. Sorry about that!

It was a dark, cold, rainy day at Titans Tower. It was a relatively quiet day, when it comes to bad guys. They had fought the usual jewel thief earlier today, but there were no immediate threats from the Brotherhood of Evil, or Slade. This being so, they decided to have a movie night. Instead of Beast Boy's stupid suggestion of "Super Radioactive Alien Ninjas Go!" they decided to watch the cult hit, "Not Another Superhero Movie."

Just as they were about to curl up under blankets, with bowls of popcorn in hand, there was a knock at the door.

"I'll go and see who it might be!" Starfire cheerfully volunteered. As she cheerfully floated near the door, she could sense that something was…well, different. She slowly opened the door and seeing nothing, said, "Hello? Is anyone out there in need of assistance?"

Just then, a hooded figure came out of the shadows. It was wearing a dark gray cloak, which hid their features from view. It glanced up at Starfire, revealing a pair of almond shaped, purple eyes. The figure suddenly collapsed into the door way, and during the fall, the person's hood fell off of their head to reveal…

"BLACKFIRE?" Starfire yelled.

"So much for movie night," Beast boy grumbled as Raven elbowed him in the ribs. Robin and Cyborg were carrying Blackfire to the couch, while Starfire's face was set as stone.

"Star, do you know why Blackfire came back to Earth?" Robin asked.

"No, Robin," she said very sternly, "I do not, nor do I care. I want her to leave immediately as soon as she regains consciousness."

"Star, I know you don't have a good relationship with your sister, to put it lightly, but she's hurt, can't you tell?" Cyborg said as he pointed to a major wound to her abdomen.

"NO! I banished her, she should never have shown her face to me again, after I defeated her in the battle for the throne!" Starfire calmed down, "Please excuse me, I'd like to be alone now."

"But Star—" Robin said after Starfire's moving form.

Robin looked exasperatedly at Raven, as she nodded and seemed to tell him, without words, "go to her."

Raven's hands then started to glow white and said, "Let's see what we can do for her."

Starfire was at the door to her room when she heard Robin's voice yelling, "Starfire, Wait!"

Starfire looked at him with a troubled expression, "I'm fine, Robin. I just need some time alone."

"Are you sure? You seemed really upset… do you want to talk?" the Boy Wonder said, putting a hand on her arm.

She looked away and nodded as she pushed the button that opened the door. They both walked into her pink and purple room, with the round bed in the middle. Their resident pet maggot, Slinky, was happily gnawing at the curtains.

They both sat down on the bed, and Starfire put her head into her hands. "Oh, Robin, she shouldn't have come back here."

"I know the last time you two met, she tried to set you up with a huge, gross, slimey monster-thing—"

Starfire glared at him, eyes aglow, as Robin hurriedly apologized.

"What's wrong? I'm your friend, and I want to help," the black-haired boy said as he put an arm around his troubled friend.

"It's just…Robin, Blackfire has brought nothing but trouble to me, ever since we were growing up on Tamaran. The last time, when I banished her, I hoped I would never see her again…but Robin…I still love her as a sister, even if she is a criminal…She always was stronger, and faster, and better than me, I—"

Robin interrupted, "Do you remember what I told you after the first time Blackfire came to earth? I said that she's missing one thing…"

"Friends, I know, but—"

"Blackfire doesn't even compare to you. You're the most caring, compassionate person I've ever met. You have a beautiful heart, and nothing can change that."

Starfire then started to quietly sob.

"This must be really stressful for you, huh? This must have brought up some pretty bad memories…" Robin said as he softly started stroking her smooth, ruby red hair. "Always remember, I'll always be here for you, no matter what, ok?"

Starfire could only nod as she continued to quietly cry.

Meanwhile, in the living room, Raven was trying her best to heal Blackfire, though after a few attempts, the wound made some improvement, but no entirely healed. Raven looked like she was about to collapse when Beast Boy steadied her.

"How's about a break, huh?" Beast Boy said with a sheepish grin.

Raven agreed and said, "This wound is tougher than I thought. There's some kind of alien poison in it. My powers don't work completely on it, so she'll have to fight some of it on her own. I'll try to give her treatments daily, but my powers can only go so far."

"Well, I guess we'll have to just take her into the guest room then," Cyborg said, shrugging his shoulders.

"What? She's staying here?" Beast Boy said with a shocked expression.

"She's mortally wounded and unconscious, where else is she going to go like this?" Cyborg reasoned.

"Fine, but I still don't like her," the green boy huffed as he crossed his arms.
