The rain is coming down and although it is difficult to see Robin makes out the two figures across the roof. It appears to be a standoff so the team waits tensely in their ready positions. A flash of lightning and then he's got a long sharp knife against her throat.
"So this it then?" The raven haired girl questions without the emotion one would expect from a person with an extremely dangerous blade to their neck.
"I don't know is it?" The black haired boy replies. He draws closer to her until his body is fully pressed against hers.
"You know there is always a choice," he whispers, dragging his other hand along her hip up onto her cheek. "If you would just give in to me," he continues as he strokes her cheek, "this would be simple." His fingers slide across her lips in a gentle caress, but his blade does not waver, as he bends closer and his next words are blown across her lips, "This is the only way," and then he is trapping her lips with his. His kiss is demanding and he brings his hand to grip the nape of her long violet hair. Breaking off the kiss he spins her and in timing with the lightning strike he moves his blade across.
Starfire gasps as she watches her dear friend's interactions with the strange man. She cries out along with the rest of the team as they see the man pull their teammate's body to rest fully against his, move his lips across her ear, and then drop her limp body. He then forms into a large black bird and flees.
Robin is the first to reach their friend and his hand immediately going to her neck, however, there is no blood. Raven looks up at him with wide eyes and pushes up from the ground.
"I'm fine." She manages in a gravel tone.
That's when the team notices her long waist length hair had been chopped into her normal style.
