Blow Her a Kiss
Chapter 11
"Ready or not here it comes"
"Star why did you…lie?" Robin asked after their daughter had gone to sleep.
It was well into the night and the rest of the Titans had gone to bed.
Only the two were still awake in Robin's old room which they now shared and Nightstar took Starfire's room.
"Why did you tell Nightstar that your story wasn't true?" he asked again.
"Because…" she answered. "Because history is going to repeat itself and I don't want her to know that same story might happen to her, so it's better if she doesn't think it true" She said quickly so it was hard for him to understand.
"What? What are you talking about? What's happing" he asked.
"Robin there coming" She whispered sitting up in bed with her jade eyes glowing in the dark room.
"Who's coming?" he demanded.

"Can we play horsie?" a small voiced ask.
"No" Raven answered not even looking up from her book.
"How bout tag?" Nightstar wined.
"No."
"Build a fort out of the sofa cushions?"
"No."
"Hide and seek?" she asked almost in tears.
Raven sighed. The titans had gone off on a mission to get Nightstar presents for her 5th birthday today, so Raven was stuck baby sitting and keeping Nightstar from finding out about her surprise party.
"But you're the only one who can keep a secret" Beast Boy had said.
"Starfire's too excited, Cyborg is too, I can never keep my mouth shut and Robin doesn't trust us without him you have to watch Nightstar"
Their words still rung in her ears.
"I guess since it's your birthday" she answered getting up from the kitchen table.
"YAY!" the newly turned 5 year old squealed.
"You count!"
"One, two, three…" Raven began.
Nightstar flew off too the rooftop giggling. She reached the door and opening it she stopped in the stairwell to listen to what number had reached.
"Eight, nine…." the Goth's voice echoed through the empty tower.
With that the half tamaranian child flew out the door and landed on the cement roof. The sky was a pale blue and wisps of clouds floated by, carried by the soft wind.
She took and deep breath letting the morning air fill her senses, at that moment something caught her eye. A spark of silver off in the distance.
And it looked like it was coming closer.
"Ready or not here I come!" Raven shouted.
