After the wedding was over, Richard took Starfire back to Titans Tower. He was thankful that Jinx didn't get too jealous at them for taking all the spotlight from the ones getting married. Keyword being too jealous. Wally had to talk to her and convince that everyone was just happy to see the lovebirds back together. Being extremely tired, he decided to sleep over at the tower for the night. Having an idea of what the newlyweds planned on doing, Richard chose to sleep on the couch.

It was around 3:45 when Richard heard a crash. Always alert, Richard grabbed his domino mask, jumped off the couch and looked around. His eyes quickly adjusted to the darkness but he still didn't see a thing. He turned around, thinking it was just a random disturbance and was punched in the face. Renegade looked up and instantly recognized his attacker.

"Slade!" He yelled out, awakening his friends.

The titans quickly ran into the ops room, Jinx and Walky arriving last and each wearing only a robe.

"Yo, what's with all the hubbub?" Cyborg asked, yawning.

"Yeah, Jinx and I were just-" Wally said before Jinx elbowed him in the ribs.

The titans instantly shifted their attention and focus upon seeing their arch enemy.

"Nice to see you too, Robin or should I say Renegade? Good to see you back with your old team" Slade commented before his eyes turned to Starfire. "I see the princess has found her way home as well, what a touching reunion"

"I guess Christmas came early this" Renegade growled, pulling out duel staffs. "Because I finally get what I've been wanting for the past five years, a chance to slowly dismember and eviscerate you"

"Starfire, why don't you show Robin what you've learned" Slade said.

Starfire suddenly attacked Renegade, blasting his in the chest with a starbolt, catching everyone off guard. Starfire then attacked the other Titans.

"Whoa! Star, what are you doing?" Beast Boy asked, dodging a star bolt. "You're supposed to be fighting Slade, not us"

"Starfire, we're your friends!" Jinx yelled, trying to get the tameranean to come to her senses, before getting kicked in the face by Star.

"Don't waste your breath, she can't hear you" Slade informed them.

Renegade, fired a net out of his utility belt, pinning Starfire to the wall. Starfire struggled, but the net had been made to withstand her tameranean strength, having been part of a contigency plan of Richard's. With Starfire temporarily subdued, Renegade went after Slade.

"What did you do to her? Why is she attacking us?!" Renegade asked.

"Oh, come on Robin; she told you about all the things I did to her? The fun games we played with scalpels and syringes? Every burn I inflicted, all the shocks? The serums and drills? You didn't think all the torture didn't serve a purpose, did you?" Slade replied, smirking underneath his mask. "I spent the last five years subconsciously brainwashing Starfire so I could use her against you. Turning her into a sleeper agent, so to speak. All it takes is a simple phrase to turn her into a brutal soldier under my command. She currently isn't even aware of what she's doing"

At that moment, Starfire used her eye beam to destroy the net restraining her.

"Hmm, probably should've made that net heat resistant to" Renegade quipped.

Starfire flew at Renegade. She punched at him, but the nimble Renegade easily avoided every blow. Beast Boy transformed into a gorilla and grabbed her from behind. Starfire easily flipped him over onto his back.

"Azerath Mentrion Zinthos" Raven said, using her telekinesis to restrain Starfire.

Starfire managed to break free of that too. With astounding speed, Starfire charged at Raven like a missile. Raven didn't have enough time to react before being slammed into the wall. Cyborg charged up his sonic cannon, preparing to attack.

"Wait, don't!" Renegade yelled, blocking his shot.

"What are you doing?" Cyborg asked.

"I'm not letting you take the shot! You might hurt her!" Renegade replied.

"Relax, it's only set to stun" Cyborg explained. "Maybe stunning her will break her out of this trance."

Cyborg and Renegade took time much time arguing and Starfire attempted to take advantage by shooting an eyebeam at them. Fortunately, Cyborg realized what she was planning to do, grabbed Renegade and jumped aside at the last second. Meanwhile, Flash and Jinx worked together trying to subdue Starfire. Jinx shot hex blasts at Starfire to confuse her while Flash grabbed some rope and quickly tied her up.

It didn't take long before Starfire snapped the binds and sent Flash flying out the window. Jinx was prepared to shoot more hex blasts before Starfire pulled off her robe, leaving Jinx standing naked.

"Eep" Jinx squeaked as she covered herself and ran to find some clothes.

Cyborg took the oppurtunity to try and blindside Starfire with a sonic blast. Starfire turned around and barely managed to dodge the blast. Cyborg took several more shots, but Starfire managed to dodge every one of them. He was then quickly dispatched via a stiff kick to the face from the Tameranean powerhouse. Slade was watching with a sadistic grin on his face as Starfire single handedly defeated her friends.

Renegade was left all alone. Renegade, instead of using brute force, tricked Starfire into standing on a random spot. As soon as she stepped foot on the tile, Renegade pulled out remote control and pressed the big red button in the middle of it. The button activated a trap door, that opened and closed quickly, trapping Starfire in a small shaft.

"For once, something good came out of Cyborg and Beast Boy's old pranks" Renegade thought.

Renegade knew he didn't have much time before Starfire escaped. He grabbed Slade and smashed him against the glass.

"Tell me how to revert Starfire to normal... now!" Renegade demanded. "Or your gang will find your body washed up on the shore of Jump City!"

"Now Renegade, if you do that, poor Starfire will be stuck a mindless killing machine forever" Slade reminded him.

At just that moment, Starfire burst out of the floor. She grabbed Renegade by his collar and tossed him around like a ragdoll, leaving the vigilante sprawled out on the floor. Starfire was likely about to finish him off before Slade stopped her.

"Starfire! That is enough. We'll kill him another time. Now let's go" Slade commanded.

Starfire nodded obediently and followed the madman. Renegade was treated to a case of déjà vu as for the second time he saw the girl he loved taken away from him by his archenemy.

Sorry for the short hiatus. Kind of had some personal things going on. I also apologize for the short chapter.
