Disclaimer: Don't own anything!

OK, so I got an idea pretty fast. Lol, I'm full over inspiration! Sorry, if at first Robin may seem out of character. Maybe he doesn't, but I'm still new to the show so sorry if he seems a little different!

"No! there is no way I will agree to doing it!" The young teen said.

"You have no choice. You never had one Robin." The tall, well built man said.

"But Wayne! I don't want to be some body guard for some princess! Do you know how princess's are these days! It's all me, me, me! I don't do well with girls anyhow."

"It's too late. Look, you're the one who has been saying you want to do things on your own and quit the whole sidekick act. You have to take it slowly. I think this will be good for you. And word on the street is, is that Slade has his eyes set for marrying the youngest one. You protect the young princess, and you'll get your shot at Slade."

"Well in that case, I'll get packing." Robin made his way through the palace of Tamaran. It was a pleasant planet, which didn't really catch Robin's attention too much. He didn't DO things like happy and cute and all in love with everything of the universe like t=many Tamaranians did. He suddenly found himself entering a room with a fake background of a dark sky and fake guards and minions of Slade with Red targets on them. All of a sudden green and purple flashes came at him. He began to duck and yelling stop.

A raven haired girl gasped, "Starfire stop! That's not a target it's a boy!" Starfire gasped.

"Oh my! Many apologies boy! I did not mean to mistake you for a target!"

"Yah, whatever." Robin replied irritably. He did NOT like being shot at by Star bolts.

"What are you doing here?" He looked up to who asked that and saw a beautiful girl with fiery red hair, peach colored skin and gorgeous jaded eyes. He shook himself out of it. He just did DO liking girls.

"I'm looking for the princess. I'm her new bodyguard."

The black haired girl stifled a laugh, "You're Starfire's new bodyguard?" Robin looked a little confused. Didn't she call the other girl Starfire? Was the beauty—I mean girl the princess?

"Is she the princess?" Robin spoke his thought.

"Her and me. But I don't need protection, but I can't always be there for her when Slade comes. Which is why they hired you, I presume?" Robin stood straight, he was a little taller the black haired girl, but a head taller the Starfire, "You were Batman's sidekick right?" Robin cringed. He HATED being referred to as a "sidekick".

"Yes."

"Oh, well my name's Blackfire." She held out her hand and they shook. (a/n: I know! In my last story she was the bad guy but I'm switching on and off, lol.)

"Right, well. Look, I need to see your head of security so if you'd be so kind as to—

"Oh but Robin. You ARE head of security. You being the bodyguard of Starfire makes you head of all the security of Tamaran." Robin starred wide eyed. He was head of security? HE called all the shots? He couldn't believe it! He was the boss for once!

"Oh, well, then I need to meet with other ranks of security, so I can get the landscaping of the entire planet."

"Right this way Robin." Blackfire led the way, but Robin waited for Starfire.

"You do not need to wait for me." Starfire said.

"Yes I do. It's my job." She nodded and she walked in front and he walked in back. Ironic that he was the boss and he was in the back of the line. They reached the room, "Blackfire, you'll be with your sister for the time being, until I'm finished right?"

"Yah."

"Ok," he walked in and began his new job. After an hour in a half, he began to wrap up. Many of the head guards were shocked by this boy's great ideas and experience. Robin received word that the King sent for him. He hurried his way to the main throne room, "Yes your majesty?"

"Oh! Robin my good boy! How are you?"

"I'm fine sir. You sent for me, sir?"

"Yes, I wanted to know how you're coming along. I hope I did not interrupt any important business."

"Oh no. not at all your majesty."

"Good. Tell me Robin, how old are you?"

"Well, I'm going on 18, sir. Why?"

"My baby girl turned fifteen a month in a half ago. Fifteen! And Slade is after her to make her a bride. She is the true heir to the throne since her and Blackfire are half sisters. Blackfire was her mother's before I married her, so she is not a legal heir. Of Slade marries Starfire then the kingdom is his. I'm trusting you in everyway that's possible to keep Slade away from her."

"That I will do your majesty. I promise you."

"Good. You may leave." Robin headed down in the direction of Starfire's room. He past a maid and asked if Starfire was in her room, the maid said no.

"Then where is she?"

"I do believe she is reading in the study." Robin's sweat dropped.

"And where might that be?"

"Oh, it's over in the east wing."

"Where are we now?"

"The north western wing." She walked off and he sighed.

"I hope Blackfire is still with her." After long walking he finally found the study. He opened the door to a very large room filled with shelves and shelves of books, wall to wall except one, where there was a giant window as big as the wall, (a/n: picture beauty and the beast.) Starfire sat curled in the far corner in a comfortable looking chair, "Is Blackfire here?" He kind of had to shout so she could hear. She looked up.

"No, she left not too long ago though. If you're looking for her she went—

"No I'm not looking for her," he made his way over to her and looked out the large window. As much as he hated to admit it, it really was a good looking planet.

"You are troubled." Starfire said. Robin turned to her a little shocked and bewildered.

"What?" Starfire blushed.

"I am sorry. I did not mean to make you uncomfortable. I could just sense that.....you were troubled and that you have many thoughts in your head." Robin smiled to show that he was not mad or uncomfortable. She smiled back.

"NO, you're right. I didn't think it was that obvious was all."

"Oh, no it is not obvious. I just had a strange feeling about you and it seemed to mean you have many things upon your shoulder."

"I do."

"I am one of them?"

"Well, yes. But really only because Slade is involved."

"Slade is a loathed enemy of yours."

"He is to everyone I think. But yes, he is my worst enemy. I've fought with him on various occasions. He seems to favor me, and when he finds out that I'm your bodyguard I'm sure he'll be delighted."

"Are you angry with this job?"

"No. I like it because I'm in control with security, rather than being the 'sidekick'. And I'll get a better chance of catching Slade and defeating him once and for all."

"Well, if I understand correctly, we will be with each other for a long time and around each other almost the whole day?"

"Yep."

"Well, in that case I believe we should get to know each other." Robin half smiled.

"I'd like that." They talked for hours, and Robin almost got to personal with his entire past, 'I'm not ready for that.' He thought. Night soon came and Robin was escorted to his new room which extremely large and across the hall from Starfire's. he lay in bed asleep. When soon a dream began to come, or should I say nightmare. Robin stood there, watching Slade battle his younger brother, shone, only ten years old. He watched the battle helplessly, only knowing that he HAD to move his legs! He had a gift that he can help his brother defeat him! But he just stood there. Shone tried hard to control what little power that his brother had been well endowed with. He was disappearing hear and there, but all the time concentrating lost him a valuable part. His life. Slade took Shone and kicked him down. He stepped on his back, breaking it. Slade pulled him up by her hair. Shone cried out.

"ROBIN!" Slade pointed to Robin.

"Your brother's sole is mine!" He twisted his neck and shone was dead. Robin shot up in bed, breathing hard. (a/n: yes, I am barrowing a little thing from Mortal Combat, and also a major thing from the movie the Shadow. Fortunately a I know a lot of people who have never even heard of that movie so hopefully it foes the same for you so this is more fun!) Robin fell back asleep sometime later, but it was not peaceful because of the one before it. Morning came and Robin escorted Starfire to the Grand Dining room. They all sat and ate breakfast.

"So Robin," The queen began, "Who was your first night at the palace?"

"Oh, it was fine." Robin lied, and very good actually. Except Starfire could see that it was not true.

'What is it about Robin that makes me feel like I am connected to him?'

Later that day Robin watched as Starfire practiced with her aiming her Star bolts. Suddenly a guard burst through, "Robin! There's word on the street that one of Slade's follower's, Daniel Morton is here with many soldiers and they're heading this way!"

"Daniel Morton you say?"

"Yes Robin." Robin smiled a little evilly.

"Perfect." He left and told the guard to stay here and watch over Starfire.

"But I can help!" Starfire began to protest.

"No, it's to dangerous Starfire." Robin said before he left. She simply waited a minute before she looked at the guard mischievously. A moment later the guard is blown out the door unconscious by a star bolt. She makes her way outside the palace unseen. When she gets to the door she flees out and sees it's quite cloudy out. She looked around firing Star Bolts at soldiers. She soon met up with her sister.

"Blackfire! Where is Ro—I mean Daniel Morton?"

"Um, I think he's off around the corner. Hey, should you be going off alone without Robin?"

"Yes! I will be fine!" She made her way to the corner when she stopped. She heard evil laughing, "Oh no! Robin!" she peaked around the corner and saw Robin was no where in sight. Daniel looked frightened and jittery, firing his laser gun in every direction. Starfire ducked before one hit her. She looked again and heard someone talk.

"Did you think you'd get away with it? Did you think I wouldn't know?" Starfire saw a shadow appear on the wall when a little bit of sunlight came through, "I'm over here!" Daniel shot at the wall, but it did nothing to the voice. The voice laughed.

"Who are you?" Daniel asked petrified.

"Your shadow." A cloudy figure still unseen really, came out of know where and punched Daniel. Daniel tried to shoot it, but the figure grabbed his arm and twisted it, causing his arm to break. He screamed in pain, "Confess! Confess that you murdered the Governor AND the prince of Gotham!" The cloudy figure held a gun to the man's head.

"Alright! Alright I confess!" The cloudy figure dropped Daniel and he ran right into Tamaranian guards. Starfire stayed behind and saw figure change back into what it really was. She gasped.

"Robin!" Robin turned and was shocked.

"Starfire!"

"It was you! That was you! But how! You were, a shadow!" Robin went in a shadow where the only thing that was in shadow was his already masked eyes.

"You will forget what you've seen. You did not see anything just now." Starfire stared at him puzzled.

"Yes I did! I saw it! Oh I will not tell anyone! Do not fear Robin!"

"I don't DO fear." Robin claimed. (a/n: Robin seems to not do a lot of things huh?" lol.) Robin seemed uncomfortable the rest of the day around Starfire, which is where he was the whole day! Starfire felt guilty and tried to talk to him about what had happened.

"Robin, please I wish to talk to you—

"No."

"But—

"No." Starfire sighs in defeat. The day came and went and she went into her bedroom for sleep. She slept peacefully until she got a cold chill. She woke up and saw that no window was open in her room nor was her door open. Then she all of a sudden felt a hand brush her face. She screamed, but saw no one. Not a moment later did Robin appear in her room.

"What is it!" Starfire stared momentarily at his shirtless chest. He had a fair build, with strong muscles, but not that buff kind of look, "What's wrong?"

"I...I felt someone......touch me, my face. I know it sounds crazy—

"No, not crazy at all." He said in a serious tone. He began to scope the entire room, "There's no one here."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes." He responded quickly, but surely.

"Then I feel better." Starfire replied. Robin left the room and Starfire tried to go back to sleep, but was not successful until late at night. The next morning she awoke and headed to her closet to get dressed. She headed out to the courtyard. She went deep into it and sat on a bench, staring up at the sky thinking about nothing unparticular, until he crossed her mind. She blushed. What was it about him that makes him so....so...she couldn't think of how she was trying to describe him.

"Mind if I join you?" A voice came from behind.

"Yes dear sister. I am glad to have your company." Blackfire sat down.

"Are you scared?"

"Why should I be scared?"

"There is news that Slade is nearing."

"I feel no need to fear him."

"Why? Oh! Because of....Robin?" she said in a taunting voice. Starfire blushed.

"He is a wonderful fighter, I know he will not lose to Slade when he was to do his job of protecting me."

"Right, well. I suppose I'll I have to leave you right now."

"Why?"

"Because your night in shining armor is coming." Blackfire got up and left and Starfire blushed. She saw Robin was indeed coming.

"This seat taken?"

"No, please do." Robin sat down.

"Look, about yesterday. Can I trust you not to—

"Of course Robin! You can always trust me." Starfire smiled. Robin smiled back, and this time could not scold himself for it. It felt as if an invisible force was pulling them closer together. There was only a little bit of space left between them.

"Robin! We've located Slade! He's at least three days away!" They pulled away instantly, "He's got three huge ships of soldiers ready to fight!"

"We aren't prepared enough for that!" Robin stood up and replied.

"I know, which is why some of us made some calls."

In the main entrance hall, stood three figures. Robin, and guard and Starfire approached them. The guard introduced them.

"This is Raven of Azerath." Raven bowed slightly, her face hooded beneath a blue cloak, her indigo eyes piercing through, "Beast Boy, of.....well, Beast Boy." He transformed into a kitten and jumped into Starfire's arms and gave her the cute big eyes. Starfire giggled. He jumped out of her arms and changed back.

"How do you do?"

"And Cyborg." Cyborg shook both their hands.

"Pleasure to meet you your highness," he turns to Robin and shakes his hand, "Sir."

"They will be of great aid to us." The guard proclaimed.

"Yes, thank you for agreeing to help during our time of need. I do fear that we still may not have enough soldiers, but I'm sure we can still defeat his force." Robin said confidently.

They followed Robin and Starfire to her train room, "You are most welcome to join me in the practice of moving targets!" Starfire exclaimed to her new friends. Three target appeared and Cyborg blasted it, Raven used her dark magic to explode it, and Beast Boy turned into a rhinoceros and charged at it. Starfire stared but when four targets came out she shot them all with ease. And now they all were impressed by the little princess.

R&r! I guess I got inspiration faster than I thought, I know this chapter is short but i M going to type another hpater with this (hopefully a little longer) and send them together. I hope you enjoy my writing!
