This is the sequel of another story "Starfire and Raven" so please read it
first!
"Jump City saved again! Teen Titans defeat Slade!" Robin read the title of the newspaper and sighed: the article was a little one on the fourth page on the journal, near a big toothpaste publicity. Robin read the remaining part of the article. "Yesterday, in the dock area, the Teen Titans have defeated once again Slade. However, the masked criminal could escape, and he's free now. Slade, first appeared in...". Robin threw away the newspaper and punched the table. He was very angry with three people: first, he was angry with Slade, because he wounded Raven and he escaped once again; second, he was angry with the journalist because he didn't even mentioned Raven's wounding, even if she had risked to die; and third, he was angry with himself, because he couldn't got Slade, he couldn't avoid Raven's wounding, and last but not least, he haven't talked to Star for a week. She was quite strange during that time, like if she was trying to avoid him... Also Raven wasn't her usual: she talked with Star for hours every day... "What's happening, Titans?" he thought, while he was cutting out the article, to hang it up on the wall of his room, like the others articles about Slade. He stared it for a while and then he exited his room.
The other two boys were in the hall, playing videogames.
"Ya've no hope against me, Cy! I'll beat ya up!"
"Stop talkin' and start fightin, loser!"
"You're just like two kids! I can't believe that a city depends on you two!" said Robin, with a smile, who disappeared immediately. A city was upon their shoulders... Sometimes he wondered why they have to protect a city which didn't care about them: what would have happened if they died? Who'd had protected the city? But last time they were so near the death... And no one mentioned it: they had to risk their own life just because they were different...
"Somebody has visited Raven this morning?"
"Yeah, dude" answered Cyborg, without looking Robin "Starfire went in her room two hours ago..."
Robin sighed. Starfire was clearly avoiding him, now he was sure.
"Well, I suppose I must go and ask her how she feels... Last time she exited her room was a week ago..."
And I have to talk with Starfire, thought Robin, without saying it.
