Tears began to take form in Starfire's emerald eyes. Her head now lowered.
"What have I done?" Starfire took off without catching a glance at Robin. But all Robin could do was yell out her name into the dark stormy night.
The tower was dark as Starfire sneaked into her room. By now the other titans were asleep in their rooms. Starfire pulled out her large pink suitcase she had underneath her bed. She remembered when she used it last. It was the first day she arrived on earth.
Flashback
Starfire arrived on Earth no less than one hour and she was already lost. Everyone was staring at her and her large pink suitcase... She was dressed in her usual outfit from Tamaran, but no one seemed to get that she was from another planet. Starfire stopped in an old alleyway and sat down. Three hobos were looking at her pink suitcase, like it was some type of jewel. Starfire clutched her suitcase tight and moved far away from the three men. She began to walk out of the dark alleyway, but what she didn't realize was that something was coming straight at her. The R cycle began to move faster but what he realized that something big and pink was ahead of him, he started to stop. Starfire looked up in amazement and covered her eyes from the light.
"Don't worry, I won't hurt you." She then uncovered her eyes and there in front of her was a masked man with jet-black hair, wearing green spandex pants, steel gray boots, and a red with other colors shirt with a big R over on his right.
"Who are you?" Starfire asked. The masked wonder held out his hand.
"I'm Robin protector of this city and you are?" Starfire took his hand and shook it gracefully.
"I am Starfire from Tamaran."
"Well Starfire from Tamaran, if it wasn't for your pink suitcase I wouldn't have noticed you while I was riding my motorcycle. Who knows what would have happened if I didn't see it."
End of Flashback
"But obviously it wasn't meant to be if this led me to this day." Starfire was all done packing and she left her door wide open and left the Titan's Tower without anyone waking up.
"Good bye my friends…" And with that little good bye Starfire started to head out towards the city and into an alleyway, once again...
"How could this happen... Red X...He kissed her! I'm going to make sure he doesn't lay another finger on her as long as I live." Robin was talking to himself while running back to the Titan's tower. Minutes later he rushed through the doors and headed straight up to Starfire's room. The door was open and she was no where in sight. Starfire's stuff was all gone and she was gone herself...
"STARFIRE!" Robin screamed out her name and fell to the ground crying. The three titans awoke from the scream and ran out from their rooms to see their leader in tears.
"Robin what's going on?" Cyborg asked cautiously.
"Yea man we all heard ya scream so what's going on?" Beast Boy was just as curious as the other two titans were. Robin got up, and wiped his eyes.
"Starfire's gone. How could I let this happen!" Robin banged his fists against the wall. Cyborg came over and placed a hand on his shoulder.
"Don't worry Robin will find her. I'll go look for her, she probably somewhere out in the city. I doubt she would go back to her home planet after what happened between her and Blackfire." Cyborg left for his room to try to get a lock on Starfire.
"Robin I suggest you try to get some sleep." Raven stated then left for her room. And Beast Boy followed the same and decided to get some zzz's. Robin realized that his friends were right and that he should get some sleep. Cyborg will find her and he knows it.
Starfire was walking along the alleyways and decided to sit down. It was past midnight and she was awfully cold. As if her life couldn't get any worse, the temperature dropped and it began to rain. Her head fell into her hands and she started to cry. What she didn't realize though was three mysterious men about in their 20's came up to her with smirks on their faces.
"Hey sweetheart. What's a girl like you doing all alone in the rain out here?" Starfire, being naive that she is thinks the men are trying to help her. If only she knew their real intent. They closed in on her and one slid his hand down her arm.
"Why don't you come with us, cutie?"
"Umm… I'm sorry, but I don't think I want to go anywhere right now." Starfire squeaked. One of the men was now smiling at her.
"Fine playing hard to get then." Without any time to answer the men jumped her and punched her. She heard her ribs crack. The men bounded her up and one of them took out a six-inch knife and started to cut her skin. Starfire screamed in pain, but the other guy slapped her hard across the cheek.
"Shut up, bitch, we aren't done yet." Starfire now had many bruises all over her body, gashes, and who knows if she broke anything, her clothes were ripped and torn. Starfire kept quiet. They threw her at the wall causing laughter, then they left.
Cyborg had a lock on Starfire but the signal died out. He headed up the road towards the signal. He was searching and searching up and down the road until he found an alleyway with a little body and large pink suitcase. Cyborg quickly got out of the T-car and ran towards the body.
"Starfire?" Cyborg whispered, and picked her up and set her in the T-Car and quickly drove off. Other than the continuous thundering and lightning, it was quiet in Titan's tower. Robin couldn't sleep so he decided to head down and watch some TV. Robin heard footsteps approach the door and waited to see who it was. Did Cyborg find Starfire? Robin waited for the doors to open and saw a drenched Cyborg carrying a beaten and bruised alien. She ran towards them and lifted Starfire from his arms. Robin's eyes started to twitch.
"Where did you find her?"
"I found her in an alleyway, beaten up and unconscious. I think it was some gang members but I'm not sure." Robin walked to his room with Starfire in his arms. How could I let this happen? Robin thought to himself in anger as he sat her down on his bed. Raven came in minutes later.
"I heard, I saw, and I may be able to heal part of her but I can't promise you anything. And with something this bad in her condition she might just be too beat up for healing and wouldn't make it in the end with my powers." Raven moved in front of Starfire and placed a single hand on her head. "Robin...I can't do this... I'm really sorry." Raven turned around and rushed out of the room.
Robin fell to his knees squeezing her hand and hoping that she woke up. Tears poured down his face.
"I knew I didn't searched hard enough. How could this happen? I'm sorry Starfire…it's all my fault this happened to you." From all that crying Robin was asleep in no time with his hand laced with hers.
Robin woke up to a stirring Starfire.
"Robin…" Starfire said weakly.
"I'm here Starfire, I'm here." Robin replied rubbing his thumb against her hand.
"How did you find me?" Starfire asked now gazing into his eyes.
"Cyborg found you and brought you home, and Raven couldn't heal the wounds so I stayed with you the whole night." Starfire tried to sit up but some ribs were broken. Robin sat on the bed and gently pushed her down.
"You must rest, since Raven can't heal your wounds." Robin stated. Starfire nodded and looked out at the rainy day.
"Thanks for staying with me."
"I'd never leave you," Robin replied and kissed her forehead.
