AN: SORRY IT'S BEEN FOREVER! Life has been crazy over the holidays and work but I'm back let's play. Oh and I'm thinking of writing a story for NCIS: LA after these two Teen Titan fics. Anyone like NCIS:La?
(With Raven and Beast Boy)
"Dude! We made it first!" Beastboy exclaimed fist pumping the air. Raven wasn't so sure of course she sat down and patiently began meditating to make sure no one unexpected was in the their hideout shack.
"Azarath Metrion Zinthos…" She chanted slowly.
"Dude! Robin has a game station here! Who would have thought the boy wonder would even allow fun in a hideout designed for emergencies." Beastboy exclaimed sitting on the couch.
"Cyborg and Batgirl have a guest with them. I sense them about ten minutes out. Be prepared." Raven ordered using her powers to push the game station and controlers back in the television stand. "I can't tell who is with them. A female but it's all I can tell. There is something dark about her…something negative."
"Oh Raven, you worry too much," Beastboy laughed slowly edging towards the closed cabinet.
"Be ready," Raven rolled her eyes forcing Beastboy away from the stand.
(With Cyborg, Batgirl, and Blackfire)
"So metal hunk man. I hope you can show a girl a good time in this city." Blackfire cooed refusing to pry her hands off Cyborg's bicep.
"Um sure pretty lady," Cyborg spoke but he was more concerned about the death glare Batgirl was currently giving him.
"You seem to be horribly worried about your sister," Batgirl observed keeping Blackfire's calm reactions in her sight.
"My sister has always needed someone's protection. She isn't the strongest of Tamerians. I'm sure the Robin she has told me about will do a fine job in protecting her. If not she needs to learn to protect herself sooner or later." she shrugged.
"Starfire is more than capable of taking care of herself. She has done so many times. She is an asset to our team," Cyborg stated roughly.
"Of course Cyborg, so tell me all of the gadgets you have here. You must have plenty of surprises beneath the armor." She purred making Batgirl roll her eyes annoyed.
"How far out are we?" Batgirl asked.
"About five minutes according to the coordinates Robin sent me. I've been out this way before I've never seen any hideout shack out this way." Cyborg answered.
"That's the point of a hideout shack. Robin learned from the best. If it's a hideout shack you won't realize it until you are inside," she stated firmly.
"I'm so excited to be included with the Teen Titan's secrets." Blackfire purred.
"Speaking of which," Batgirl stated taking a piece of cloth out of her belt. "You aren't classified I'm going to have to blindfold you."
"Oh I understand I suppose. Guess you'll have to guide and protect me strong man," she purred rubbing Cyborg's arm again. Batgirl rolled her eyes quickly tying the black cloth across Blackfire's eyes and walked ahead quickly not caring to see Cyborg be fawned over by a visionless alien.
They walked a few more minutes in silence except for Blackfire's acts of flirtation with Cyborg.
"We're here apparently. But I don't see a," Cyborg stated but was interrupted by a door sliding open beside them. The door they were staring at obviously a fake. The door to the side came out of slab of concrete. You couldn't even see door creases. "see a scanner." He finished amazed.
"DNA scanned and accepted. Batgirl, Cyborg and an unknown." A computer voice sounded.
"Unknown is accepted for now," Batgirl stated walking briskly in to the newly formed door followed by Cyborg and a blind Blackfire.
"Dudes you made it we've been here forever!" Beastboy's voice echoed through the hallway. "And Raven won't even let me play on the station Robin had installed."
(With Starfire and Robin)
Robin and Starfire were only half a mile out before Robin slowed his pace and let Starfire down gently. Making sure they kept to the shadows of the city. It made his chest feel empty to have her let go and broke his heart to know she hadn't smiled since she had talked about how her brother and sister had escaped the Citadel. They walked in silence for a good ten minutes, Starfire being carefully obvious not to use any of her powers. Making sure to sit on the top of the old metal fence and drop slowly that blocked their path. She didn't want to fail Robin by mistakenly using her powers.
"If you need help because you aren't use to not using your powers I don't mind," Robin said softly taking Starfire's hand as she stood up from the ground.
"I apologize if I am causing us to be slow. I shall do the pace of picking up." She nodded.
"No you're fine Star, it's okay."
"Do you think they'll find us?" Starfire asked looking Robin square in the eye still not letting go of his hand.
"I promise Star no matter what if they do I will do anything to protect you. I give you my word. You are part of the team. We will help protect you." She nodded giving a small smile.
"I am sorry to have caused any arguments with you and your old team mate. I shall try harder not to be of a bothersome when we arrive."
"Star you aren't the problem. I promise. You don't deserve to be treated like that. I promised to protect you not just from the citadel but from anyone who wants to hurt you."
"You have my gratitude and I shall also do the protecting of you." She smiled at him their eyes locking for a moment before Robin patted a cement wall.
"We're here," he announced smirking.
"DNA scan accepted. Robin and Starfire," the computer voice stated as a doorway appeared. Robin's face fell back to its usual emotionless state except for the fact that he held Starfire's hand as he pulled her into the shack and the door sliding shut behind them.
"Robin," Batgirl said calmly nodding towards him. "Starfire." She stated blandly noting their hands.
"Where is everyone?" Robin asked. Beastboy's agonizing whine mimicked Cyborg's as a female voice rejoiced echoing down the hall.
"How can you be winning? You sure you've never played a video game before?" Came Beastboy's voice as Robin, Starfire, and Blackfire entered the livingroom quarters.
"Sister!" Starfire announced running towards the girl sitting on the edge of the couch still holding the controller.
"You haven't changed a bit sister dear," Blackfire stated while Starfire squeezed her tightly.
"What has brought you to earth?"
"Why you of course. I heard you escaped and came to see if the rumors were true. Had I known the Citadel still held an interest in us I would not have put you in danger." Blackfire answered tossing Starfire's hair back before jumping off the couch arm.
"You must be Robin," she coed strutting slowly over towards him.
"Yeah I am. You said you heard Star had escaped. Did you think she was still being held captive?" Robin glared.
"I wouldn't doubt you are Robin. Such the detective you are." She purred running her hand up his arm. Robin quickly shook it off walking over to the main screen and killing the game.
"Aw dude," Beastboy whimpered setting his controller down and avoiding the glares he was receiving.
"It's late everyone get some rest and tomorrow we'll set a plan of attack." Robin ordered his back to his team. Footsetps shuffled out of the room but Robin could sense one set remained.
"You okay?" Robin asked turning around to see the red head sitting on the couch with her knees pulled up to her chest. He walked over and gently sat next to her.
"She did leave us there. She must not have known where the ship was or she would have come back. She must have been confused," Starfire whispered. Robin nervously put his arm around her and gave her a small hug.
"I told you Star I will always be there for you. If the worst happens, which it won't," Robin stated firmly. "I'd go to the ends of space to find you. Promise me you know that. You know I'd find you."
"I do Robin. I just pray that you do not suffer due to my well-being. It is my burden and I do not desire you to share in it."
"Star," Robin sighed quickly. "You mean a lot to me. Everyone on my team does," he added hoping she couldn't see his blush. "I want nothing more than to take the burden away. Here we'll sleep on the couch." He stood up and walked to a white wall and smacking it with the side of his fist. A shelf opened and he pulled out two pillows and two blankets.
"Thank you Robin. You truly are the truest of friends." She gave him a small smile as he handed her a blanket and pillow.
"Anytime Star, anytime."
As everyone fell into a restful sleep no one noticed the dark haired Tamerian slip out a small hole she had created in the roof and fly away.
"I shall be victorious sister dear. Tameran is mine."
