Chapter IIX – Healing

"Blackfire this is Angel. The best doctor we could find that might be able to help Starfire." Robin said as he gestured the small doctor beside him.

"It's nice to meet you." Angel curtseyed.

Blackfire nodded still unsure if the Angel could really help them. She turned around and walked closer to the tank. Unconsciously she stretched her hand as if trying to reach Starfire inside.

"Blackfire, can you tell us what happened at the rooftop that day?" Angel asked as she took Blackfire's side. Everyone moved closer to Blackfire to listen to what she had to say.

She started to tell them about her arrival that day.

"No sister. You will not speak." Starfire told her.

"But Koriand'r..." She tried to hold her sister but Starfire just brushed her hands away.

Starfire walked a couple of steps away from her. "How could you sister?" She said it more to herself than to Blackfire. Blackfire grabbed her hand and placed it near her cheek.

"Koriand'r I'm sorry" but Starfire didn't respond silence was her only answer.

She couldn't see Starfire's reaction as she was facing the other direction. Blackfire wanted to say more, to explain what happened and to apologize for all the hurt that she has caused her sister.

"I didn't mean to... I knew... but I just couldn't... I know I shouldn't have..." Blackfire tried to tell Starfire of what she truly felt but she wasn't able to form any coherent sentences. Emotion was flooding her, there was a lot she wanted to tell her but she's not able to. She wanted but she couldn't.

She her knees gave way which made her sit on the floor but she didn't let go of Starfire's hand.

"I'm sorry... I'm really... really sorry..." She continued to tell her while tears started to fall from her beautiful face.

Suddenly without any sign or warning Starfire's power covered her whole being accompanied by a large explosion. Blackfire was thrown a couple of feet due to the power of the blast. Her head was still buzzing when she tried to get back on her feet.

"No you're not!" Star's aura became stronger "Don't lie to me!" Little by little the power that was engulfing her started to go wild and as if having its own life it started to lash out everywhere.

Blackfire couldn't believe her eyes, what stood in front of her no longer resembled the sister she knew but instead it looked like pure energy in a human form.

"Koriand'r! Stop that it is too dangerous!" Blackfire pleaded but Starfire could no longer hear her.

Gathering all the power she has Blackfire flew straight for Starfire and tackled her. She tried to restrain her with her power but it was near impossible. It was like she was trying to contain a small sun that was continually expanding.

"Sister stop! You are hurting yourself. Stop this now!" She pleaded.

She straddled Starfire and held both her arms on top of her head. She continued to plead and reach out to her sister but it was to no avail. Just as she was about to lose hope she saw Starfire muttering something. She really couldn't understand but she knew she said something. Before she could even think about it some more the light surrounding Starfire contracted and without warning gave a very strong blast causing her to be knocked out.

Blackfire was only out for a couple of seconds, a soon as she regained consciousness she tried to look for Starfire but saw that the entire rooftop was covered by a large dust cloud. She tried to focus her energy and sense her sister. Successfully, she found her laying just a couple of feet from her unconscious. She tried to stand up and go to her but her legs immediately gave way as soon as she stood up. So she did the best she could and crawled to her sister's side but before she could reach her she saw the other Titans appear.

Blackfire finished recounting the events that happened and told them that the rest was what they saw when they got out onto the rooftop.

"Thank you. That will help me a lot when I check up on your sister later." Angel told her before facing the other 3 Titans.

"I think it would be best for Blackfire to rest for the time being. Why don't you take her to her room to rest" She told Raven. Raven didn't argue and she glided towards Blackfire and helped her back to Starfire's room.

The doctor talked to the rest of the Titans and instructed them on things to do. After giving them each their to-do list she grabbed Robins arm and pulled him away from Beast Boy and Cyborg.

"I think I already know what happened to your friend." She stated. "But I still need to make sure so I'm going to need to keep a watch on her"

"I understand" He replied.

"While I'm working on her no one. I repeat no one is to disturb me."

"Whatever you say Doc. I'll make sure that none of my friends bother you will you treat Star."

Robin was already out of the room when he heard Angel called out while chasing him.

"I forgot to mention earlier that I need you to watch over Blackfire as well"

"You didn't have to tell me that Doc. We would've still taken care of her even if you didn't tell me to." He answered.

Angel shook her head.

"No, I meant you should take care of her not the others." She clarified.

"Why does it have to be just me? Wouldn't it be better for her to have a lot of people watching over her? You know like a strong support system."

He saw her raise her eyebrow and put her free hand on her hips.

"Who is the doctor here?" asked the little doctor.

"You are."

"And who came begging me to come here and help you out?"

"I did."

"So why are you questioning my orders?" she asked him.

Robin told her that he understands and apologized for questioning her orders. Angel forgave him and walked back to the room where Starfire was in. Before she closed the door she reminded him that no one was to come to the room until either she was completely finished or if she calls for one of them.

Meanwhile Beast Boy and Cyborg were already sitting at the living room talking about their encounter with the small doctor earlier.

"Dude that was some weird doctor. I wonder when Robin found that... " Before Beast Boy continued he looked left and right first in case the doctor might be around. "...runt"

"Beats me but as long as Robin trusts her then I have no problem with her. Besides you're one to talk short stuff"

"I'm not short, I'm just vertically challenged is all. But seriously Cy didn't you see how she pointed that scythe to my neck. Heck I didn't even see where she pulled that out from."

"That was my fault Beast Boy. I wasn't able to brief you properly about our eccentric doctor." Robin told him as he entered the living room. "All I can say is she is the best at what she does. She does weird things but I'm sure she is the solution to our current predicament."

"As long as you're sure Dude." Beast Boy told him.

"If you're sure then I don't see any problem. Besides how weirder can she be from Beast Boy here" Cyborg teased.

"By the way. I was told that I'm the only one to take care of Blackfire so I leave the other things to you guys." Robin told them before heading towards Starfire's room to check up on Blackfire.
