New chapter!
-Everyone groans-
Morning came; the sun peaked through the windows
Morning came; the sun peaked through the windows. It was so bright the lights threaten to burst through raven's dark blue curtains.
This woke Raven up; she stood up and slowly put each foot on the ground, getting up felt like a chore, she stumbled over to her on-suite.
She looked at her self in the mirror and splash water over her face that woke her up a bit.
She then stared back at her reflection and pondered, negative thoughts swam though her head "arrgggh I'm so pale I might as well be gray…." She hated the way everything was going at the moment, she missed her best friend…in fact she was really like a sister…..
Tears threaten to leak out but she hold them back, she refused to let it get to her.
But it did, she closed her eyes as the mirror smash into thousands of pieces.
With her eyes still closed, with one swift hand movement the glass flew up and repaired itself. Unable to take the tension much longer she went back to her bedroom and sat on her bedroom floor ignoring the fact that Starfire and her used to do this together and closed her eyes again and chanted her famous words arzath…mentrion…zinthos………..
Beast boy rubbed his eyes he could tell that it was light even though his grimy windows wouldn't let light through. Beastboy yawned and steeped out of his messy bed, for him too, it fell like a chore to get up every day. But he knew he had to.
But he didn't bother anymore…….
About anything really he just flicked through channels….just remembering Starfire's strange taste in TV and foods made him want to laugh…..Some of her cooking wasn't that bad, I mean that chowder she made last did only made me spew up for three hours and I mean that's a record!"
Beastboy sighed to himself.
He looked around the living room was empty
It seemed dark even though the sun shone inside,
It was so lonely around here these days no one laughed and no one ever dared to smile, if they ever did we just felt guilty.
Beastboy continued to flick through channels……..
Cyborg sat inside the T-car polishing the steering wheel in the same spot over again and again without even noticing it he just stared blankly into space………..
flashback
People were screaming woman and children were crying men trying to protect them,
People Fleeing and running for there lives……….
Robin was trying to convince a little girl to get out of a very shaky broken down bridge……Raven was holding up building with her black aura to let citizens out and into safety. Beast boy was struggling to hold up railing which if it fell would send the train and the people on it flying……
Cyborg was fixing a bomb and trying to figure which wire would cut of the system and stop it form blowing up………….6, 5, 4, 3, "ah ha! The red wire!" He said as he snipped it. BOOJA!! He shouted and ran over to help Beastboy with the railing
Then ever thing was a blur of green light and then next thing Cyborg knew
Was a sobbing robin holding a much shaken Starfire, Who was listless and had blood coming out of her mouth and ears, with bruises and cuts all over her body.
"STARFIRE NOOOO!!" Screamed raven
Beastboy ran over to comfort her, he hugged her and she wrapped her hands over his neck and sobbed into his shoulder unable to look down at her friend…
Cyborg simply couldn't believe what he was seeing no …..No ……no she can't be dead ….she just can't!!...
end flashback
Cyborg snapped out of his trance and looked around it was strangely lonely without Starfire, it seem to infect everybody.
Beastboy didn't say any lame jokes.
Raven didn't hit him over the head for his lame jokes,
Robin didn't tell them to be quiet……robin hadn't talked about it….in fact he hadn't talked at all……
Robin gazed at her, the sunlight bathed the hospital ward, and it seemed to be on Starfire like a spotlight, "she's so beautiful" he thought to himself. He gripped her hand, but was it his imagination did her hand just twitch? No it wasn't her hand did just twitch!
"Starfire?" he asked eagerly
No reply,
Robin's shoulders slumped as disappointment crash over him
"I just wanted to hear her sweet voice one last time" he sighed
flashback
The young girl stared out at the empty plains around the fortress,
Where there were a few trees and grassy plains with exotic flowers nothing much else.
But she loved everything about it,
One of her favorite things to do was to run and skip around the meadows and into the fields singing lullabies and being with peace with the world.
She stared over at her little baby brother laughing and playing happily in the garden and smiled
"Empress Koriandor the king and queen wish to speak to you it is most urgent!" said her guardian.
It was funny that her guardian to call by the royal status let alone her parents so she giggled but he looked troubled.
"Is something wrong?" she said suddenly feeling anxious,
He didn't answer her he just turned away with tears in his eyes
Kori was confused so she picked up her baby brother and walked past the palace gates and into the castle.
In the grand hall where her parents were seated in high thrones overbearing the whole hall and on there left was armed gorthings, the enemy.
Kori was starting to get really nervous now
Her father looked ready to say something that he regretted already
"Kori you know that we are in time of war" he said
She nodded
"And we would do anything to prevent anymore harm to tameran"
She nodded again
"So" he continued on "as the protectors of tameran we are entitled to do the absolute best for Tameran"
Kori nodded for a third time
"So I have no choice but in trading you to the gorthans to bring peace to tameran" he said quickly.
"What?" Said Kori in shock
"I'm so sorry Koriandor!" he said as he broke down in tears
"Mother! help me please!!" she said desperately looking over to her mother
She just sat there with an oddly cold expression
"Mum…." she pleaded
Her older sister ran in and she had been clearly listing in,
And she snatched their baby brother out of her hands.
Firm hands grabbed her under the arms and dragged her out the doors
Her baby brother started to wail he wanted his big sister……
"I love you Kori don't you ever forget that!" her father yelled after her
Her sister's eyes gleamed evilly in the corner of the room where light could not touch and smirked into the darkness…….
"Don't take her please I beg you"! Her guardian cried out
"Yeah don't leave little sis!" Kormandor jeered
Her baby brother's cries rang through the hall……….
Starfire slowly opened her emerald eyes
"Starfire? You're awake!!" A voice cried out which she recognized as Robin's
"Oh thank goodness!" he said
"Robin?" "Is that you?? She asked
"Yes" he said gently
"Oh" she said softly
There was pause
Are you ok? She asked
"Uh?' me yes I'm fine! It's you I'm worry about!" He said confused
"But…but I...I…saw you getting hurt by Slade, he was about to hit you with a steel rod!" she cried trying to sit up.
But robin push her firmly but gently down,
"You saved me and many other people, you're a hero" he added warmly
"Me?" she asked now alert
Robin nodded as he looked adoringly down at her
Starfire notice this and blush probably harder than she ever had in her life
"How long has it been?" she asked breaking the silence
"Oh! Err….um…well…he started
"Robin!" she warned him
"Three months……" he said painfully
"THREE MONTHS!" she yelled
