Chapter 6

Starfire stood in her closet getting ready for the day getting dressed wearing a short black ruffled skirt, and a long purple off the shoulder shirt, wearing black

ankle boots leaving her apartment for awhile to pass the time walking down the street getting a quick glimpse of a girl with short purple hair looking over noticing

that it was Raven her former teammate her eyes lit up seeing her wearing black shorts black fishnets black boots and a long dark blue hoodie/sweater "Raven! is that

you" she says walking over approaching her "Star wow..it's good to see you it's been awhile how have you been" Starfire smiled seeing not much has changed between them

"I'm doing well I got my own place you'll have to come over some time..how is everyone else if you know" Raven hesitated slightly feeling slightly embarrassed "well

after you left we did split from the team but...we are still in contact I'm actually roomating...with Beast Boy.." she looked away as Starfire looked at her confused

"you..and Beast Boy live together...I would never have thought I mean that's great but...I am curious what about you know" Starfire hesitated to ask about Robin "oh

him he went solo we still have our communicators but we haven't spoken to him much and he hasn't spoken to us much but its ok and Cyborg he found his own place as well

we still have contact with him as well" Starfire smiled with relief

"that's good to hear I'm glad most of you still have contact with each other I would have kept contact but I've been...a little busy" Raven looked at her confused "busy...ok that's fine

it happens so..since you've been out on your own have you met anyone new at all.." Starfire bit her lip slightly "well..kind of yea I have he's a friend" Beast boy

came running out of the cafe across the street "Raven I thought you were going to wait for me...oh dude! Starfire it's you!" Starfire smiled feeling happy to see him

as well "it is good to see you beast Boy I have missed most of you" Beast Boy couldn't help but laugh "ooh harsh but that's funny we've missed you too dude we gotta

hang out sometime" Raven rolled her eyes at Beast Boy for interrupting her "as I was saying before you came running over...so about this new guy friend of yours"

Beast boy smirked at Starfire "oh do you already have a new boyfriend..damn Robins not gonna like that one" Starfire turned about 10 different shades of red

[me...and Slade! oh god no! how could no!] she shook her hands frantically "oh no no Beast Boy it's not like that at all were just friends that's it" Beast boy

crossed his arm laughing "dude I haven't seen you turn that red in a long while not even Robin made you blush that much...are you guys unofficial yet is that problem

well, whoever the guy is...I hope he treats you well" Starfire feeling so uncomfortable at the thought her body almost shutter her left eye starts twitching

"No...I I'm serious Beast Boy..just friends nothing more nothing less that's it..." Raven getting annoyed with Beast Boy bugging her "ok Beast boy give it a rest

don't push her so much...but I do agree with Beast Boy we should all get together bring your new friend with too..it'll be like old times again" Starfire still blushing

at the different thoughts running through her mind "well it was fun running into you but we need to get going..don't be afraid to contact me ok" Raven said starting to walk off with Beast Boy as she waved them off

"it was good seeing them..I'm just glad it was them and not...him" starting to walk the opposite direction from them but as she's walking she starts thinking about the

things Beast Boy was saying starting to blush again "oh..god beast Boy saying if he..is my boyfriend...ugh!...him and I no way not a chance..that would just be so

wrong...on so many levels..plus I never even thought about dating again.." she suddenly looks up seeing clouds gather in the sky as it begins to rain and darken

continuing to walk through when she looks back seeing someone follower her she picks up her pace noticing him [he's following me who is he..what could he want..if he

gets too close I will attack] continuing on her walk "excuse me I need to ask you a few questions getting closer to her getting her attention "I don't mean to follow

just curious about what you can tell me about this" holding up a picture of Slade he heart began to race a little [must be a target or enemy of his..somehow they know

I'm involved with him...I can't tell them anything I won't tell them anything"] keeping herself calm "whats there to know I don't know anything now if you don't mind

I need to get going" as she starts to walk away he grabs her wrist "it would be wise of you tell the truth we know you and him are buddies now you might be able

to fool your old teammates but not us" causing her to glair as he spins her towards him "it would be wise of you to let go of my wrist" glowing her bright neon green

eyes at him as a warning as she quickly flips him onto the ground causing him to let go and turns to fly off but she is stopped by another man bumping into him as he

forcefully pushes her back slamming into the ground getting soaked with water starting to get angry lashing at this man throwing him against the wall causing

him to yell in pain from the force of her strength punching him in the stomach causing him to hunch over then kicks him in the face causing his head to smack against the wall making part of his head bleed and blood dripping out of his nose

but without her paying attention, she is grabbed from behind with his arm wrapped around her restraining her as she thrashes to get him off trying to smack him back

against the wall "grr let go!..." suddenly yelps feeling him start rubbing her thigh reaching up her skirt and before she can react he jab a needle into her neck

making her yell and her eyes widen heating her body up getting angry setting her body on fire blasting a giant flame off of her body knocking the two of them away

from her smacking against the wall as she feels her energy weaken dropping to her knees "w..what the...what did you do" trying to blast flames out of her hands "why

can't I use my flames" they started laughing holding the syringe "we did our research before coming after you...it's not permanent sadly just temporary" Starfire glared shaking

Slade jumps in the way grabbing the man by the throat as he tries to lash at Starfire and attack her making him gargle on his saliva slightly throwing him back against

the wall knocking him out unconscious and the other yelled running at him as he's got blood dripping down his face still from the beating Starfire gave him quickly

grabs him punching him repeatedly in the stomach making him spit up blood slamming him on the ground pressing his foot on the back of his head kicking him constantly till he starts bleeding from his head

Starfire watches him in shock as he took them both down without even trying "Starfire are you...alright" he says turning to her as he reaches his hand down to her

she nods grabbing his hand stumbling to her feet "y..yea I'm fine just feel really really weak from whatever he injected me with...I didn't tell them anything" holding

her head feeling light headed as well "I know you didn't I'm not worried about that...I'm sorry you had to subject to this...come on let's get out of here before more of those guys show up"
