Part One
"No you don't know anything! Stop doing this to me!" an angry Tamaranean yelled at the young hero.
He said nothing to her and watched her storm away. That was what he was awoken by the memory. They were eighteen when the fight happened between him and Starfire. She left, the other's stayed but they were angry with him that he had pushed her so much that she finally left. They were also upset because he didn't go after her. It had been two years since then he hadn't heard from her but he knew the others had. The loss of one member had separated them and at the same time weakened them as a team. He knew this all too well. She was the one who made fighting criminals easier with her powers she could always be continued on. With her gone fighting criminals was slightly harder and they had to work harder when fighting.
He was now known to everyone as Nightwing a name he took after Starfire had left. The others hadn't changed their names or outfits like he had. They had all finished growing a year ago leaving Cyborg with the same height he had always been 6'8 his appearance was the same as well. Raven was 5'6- 5'7 the only thing that really had changed on her was her hair being grown out by an inch. Beast Boy was 6'6 and had gained some muscles as well. Nightwing was 6'7, had changed his name, his outfit, had grown his hair out slightly, and had also gained some more well defined muscles. The last they saw Starfire she was about 5'6, her hair had become wavier, her English had improved, and she had developed a little more as well. Robin was now twenty as was Raven and Starfire. Cyborg was the oldest out of everyone at twenty-one and Beast Boy was the youngest nineteen.
After the dream he laid there in his bed and thought about their last encounter he couldn't even remember why she had started yelling at him or what had led up to it at all. He wondered if she even could. Last thing he had even heard she had gone back to Tamara. He soon got up from his bed, took a shower, got dressed, and then headed out to the common room. He looked around the area there really was no difference in the tower at all. Everything was mostly the same except for a new couch in the main room and the kitchen being redone a few months ago. Starfire's room was the same no one had touched it since she left. Cyborg had also upgraded their security and they had their own power so if the city went on a black out they would still have power. The team was on good terms when Starfire wasn't mentioned, which was avoided at most times if Nightwing was around. The others had soon came in and the daily routine of making breakfast was done and the arguing over tofu and meat had also begun. Raven and Beast Boy where actually a couple now as was Cyborg and Bumble Bee when they saw each other, none of this interfered with their missions though. Nightwing was single though he didn't mind he preferred being alone. Another thing that had changed he was more in touch these days with Batman also known to many as Bruce Wayne. He was technically the adopted son and had a part in the business that he sometimes left for a few days to go and be seen so everyone knew he was still alive. When he was there making an appearance he was known as a player because he was one. If he was there for a month he could have seen of been with three different girls but other than that he didn't usually spend time with women.
"So should we tell him?" Beast Boy whispered to Cyborg by the kitchen.
"He'll find out when she arrives either way," Cyborg answered back quietly.
"It's the position of do you want him to know a head of time or when she comes. Prepared or not?" Raven said looking at the two boys from the kitchen table.
"What are you three talking about?" Nightwing said coming over to the group from the hallway.
Beast Boy looked at him and didn't say anything Raven was the one who had.
"Starfire is coming today to stay for a few. Well more so Galfore is sending her as is Batman," Raven stated.
"He knew and didn't tell me?" Nightwing stated plainly.
They didn't say anything else to him just looked.
"Why are they sending her here?" He asked after a few seconds.
They shrugged, "Don't know that's just what we were told by her," Cyborg said.
The doorbell was soon heard, Beast Boy got up and answered it and in came Starfire. She looked like she had the last time they saw her except her hair seemed a little longer and wavier then last time, as well as she seemed tired as well. Her mood was obvious though which made it clear to them why she was sent back there. She wasn't happy which meant she couldn't fly or use her powers.
"Hello friends it is wonderful to see you all again it's been a while," she said clearly to them her English was still pretty good from the time she had left it hadn't faltered.
"It's been two years Starfire and we haven't heard much from you," Cyborg said.
"I am sorry I have been busy with helping the grand ruler," she said to him.
Nightwing excused himself quietly when his communicator went off it was the one he had from Batman. He took it in a different room.
