Chapter 2: 6 Years Later

"Come on, Rob. You know you want to!" a young red haired lady told the once-a-hero Robin. His name was now Rob Grey, a made-up alias.

He shook his head, saying, "I'm not wearing that. I don't wear tights."

The lady sighed, and said, "Fine. But you'd look so cute! Like a sexy superhero."

He gritted his teeth, trying not to get bothered by that.

They walked out the apartment, holding hands. Robin had moved on, and was trying to live a normal life. Robin had relocated to New York City. The high-rises, row houses, and skyscrapers the only scenery he had now.

His wife was Abigail Grey, and it was obvious Robin tried to find someone that looked and acted as alike as Starfire he could find, even though it wasn't the same.

It had been 6 years ago when the Teen Titans broke up. Robin, or Rob, was a police officer now with the NYPD. Suddenly, his pager beeped. There was a call for backup on the outskirts of New York City.

"Need backup, some sort of UFO crash in the Palisades Park area, at the corner of East Homestead Avenue and 10th. There's a pilot in it, I repeat, a pilot. I need backup to get her out. Repeat, I need backup to get her out." The officer said.

That caught Robin's attention. "Get her out"

His gut told him this meant something important, and he took off, telling his wife, "I've got to take this call, I'll make it up to you!"

He rushed off, and got in his nearby cruiser, which was parked outside the complex.

He screeched the rear tires and he sped off out that way.

He got to the East Homestead Avenue and 10th Street in Palisades Park, and his first sight was a giant spacecraft that had crashed at a Baseball Field, right on the diamond.

He hurried around, and went through the open fence.

"Hey, this is police business-" the officer began to say, blocking his path, but Rob cut him off. "I'm off duty right now. I'm your backup."

The man then helped Rob scurry up to the cockpit, and they lifted the see-through glass off the passenger.

Rob gasped, as the man just had a straight face. "What do you make of this?" the man muttered.

Robin whispered, in total shock.

"Starfire?"

She moaned in pain. Rob and the man helped her out, Rob in more of a hurry.

Starfire gasped at the sight of Robin, and hugged him lightly. She had apparently gone from age 17 to 23. He had gone from age 17 to 23 as well, because of their birthdays being a day apart.

The man, in confusion, said, "Wait, you know her?"

Robin nodded, and said to the man, "For all our sakes, and our credibility, we shouldn't report this."

"Well…What do I do with the ship?" the officer asked.

"Go back to where-ever you usually go, and let someone else find it." Robin said, smirking.

The man nodded, and walked off, muttering, "A police officer with an alien girlfriend… Part of the crazy shit that happens in New York..."

"Why do you look so different?" Starfire whispered.

Robin smirked, and said, "Because we're 6 years older, Star."
