Chapter X – Cure

Robin restlessly paced back and forth inside his room. The conversation he had with Blackfire earlier put a lot of questions in his head. He knows that what happened with them wasn't just heat of the moment. He felt something and he knows that she felt it as well. He was still lost in thought when suddenly Beast Boy and Cyborg came storming into Robin's room.

"She's ok!" Beast Boy Happily exclaimed.

"Oh yeah! Oh yeah! " Cyborg chanted as he did a weird dance routine.

He really wasn't able to hear the first few sentences that they said because he was lost in thought so he really couldn't tell what they were happy about.

"What are you 2 cheering for?" Robin asked.

"We just heard from doc that Starfire is going to be ok." Cyborg told him excitedly.

"Yeah she said that she just needed to run a couple more test then she'll be cleared." Beast Boy added.

Hearing the news made him somewhat relieved but a part of him was also worried. Relieved that Starfire is no longer in danger and worried because he hasn't really talked to Blackfire about what happened yet and now here they were again back at the beginning.

Robin smiled so that his 2 friends wouldn't notice his uneasiness.

"That's great news guys. Why don't you grab Raven and Blackfire so that we can all talk with the doctor about that news of yours."

The two nodded and cheerfully exited his room.

Meanwhile at the room where Starfire was recovering Angel was busy double checking on the findings that she got.

"Hhmm... This doesn't look to good." She told herself as she studied the result some more.

"Well I guess this wouldn't be a problem since it's her." A couple more notes and she picked up the things she needed to show the team.

The doctor headed directly for the living room where she expects the others would be waiting for her. Without fail everyone was already there except for Robin.

"Where's the fearless leader?" She asked.

Everyone looked at her direction and both Beast Boy and Cyborg were surprised. The doctor was once again in her "Shorter version" Beast Boy fought the urge to call her short or anything synonymous to it for fear of his life.

"Well he told us to get them and meet him here afterwards." Beast Boy answered.

"We actually thought he would be here already." Cyborg added. Angel just shrugged it off.

"Do you guys want to get the full report already or do you want to wait for Robin?"

Blackfire stepped forward.

"It's ok we can tell him later about the news. Can you please tell us now her current condition?" Angel asked them get comfortable as she needed to go into detail about Starfire's current condition.

"Well I actually have a good news and a bad news" Angel started. She saw the concern flash in their eyes as they didn't really expect a bad news to. "Which would you like to hear first?" She asked.

Everyone looked at Blackfire in anticipation of her answer.

"Let's hear the bad news first." She bravely said.

"Well the bad news is that due to the explosion caused by Starfire's power. She is now completely drained." She looked at each one of them to make sure that they understood the gravity of her condition before continuing.

"But Tamareans heal fast and we recover our energy faster" Blackfire said in a matter-of-fact way.

"I know, but you and Starfire are different since your powers are extended to your bolt energies." Angel explained. "Both of you are special cases in Tamarean history as you are the only 2 to poses such powers." She continued on.

"What are you implying doctor?" Blackfire asked not sure of what the doctor was trying to get to.

"Both yours and Starfire's power are based on emotion. The stronger your emotion the stronger you get. Unfortunately for Starfire her power cannot feed of her emotion right now." Angel explained.

This time it was Raven who asked the doctor.

"Then what do we do? Are you saying that we're just going to leave her in that state?" She asked.

"No, she's going to try to get some energy from Blackfire and then transfer it to Starfire's body." Robin explained as he entered the room.

"That is the good news" The doctor interjected.

"Then there really isn't anything to worry about." Beast Boy said cheerfully.

"Booyah! A soon as you finish with the transfer we should be able to get Starfire back to her old self." Cyborg cheered.

Everybody started to rejoice over the news the doctor announced. Even Raven gave her rare smiles to show that she is also very happy with the development. Blackfire immediately approached the doctor so they could get started.

"Can we start the transfer now?" Blackfire asked. Angel nodded and guided her back to the recovery room.

As soon as they were inside, Angel faced Blackfire and asked her to take a seat. Blackfire acknowledge the request and sat down beside Starfire's tank.

"Before we start I want to tell you everything." Angel started. "First I didn't tell the others everything because I believe that you are the only one who needs to know. Second when the explosion happened in the rooftop most of Starfire's power got transferred to you."

"Are you saying that beside from her outburst last time I am also the person responsible with her current predicament?" Blackfire asked in shock.

"It wasn't something you did." Angel clarified. "Do you remember I told you that both your powers are based on emotion?" Blackfire nodded.

"At that instance when her emotion burst it simply interpreted what she was feeling. Even though she was hurt she knew that you were the only person she can trust and run to. So what her power did was to have your body absorb it."

"Are you saying that what we are going to do is really just get her power back to her body?" Blackfire asked.

"Yes and No. Due to the nature of your powers I cannot be fully sure that I will be able to get all of her power from you. I might be able to get some of it and the rest might be yours that gets transferred." Angel explained.

"It's no problem with me as long as Koriand'r gets better." She answered with unwavering determination.

"Well as long as you know what you are getting into." Angel said as a devilish smile appeared on her face. "Then let's get started." She added as her teddy bear started to change into the familiar scythe that she used on Beast Boy.

"What are you going to do with that?" Blackfire asked as she took a defensive stance.

"Hush now. I'm just going to slice that piece I mentioned to you earlier and put it back in your dear sister." With that she immediately took a swing at Blackfire with her scythe. For a moment nothing else could be heard but a small cry that escaped her lips.
