Raven instantly moved with Beast boy behind as Starfire woke up. She felt a shiver run all over her body. She didn't get to listen anything but somehow, something pushed her to waking up, just in time to see Raven and Beast boy speeding into the hall. She quickly followed, not being sure if she was ready to know what actually happened.

When Raven reached Cyborg's door she noticed that the door was down, full of dents and scratch marks, that was probably the crash they heard. She look inside the room. The air was dense and you could barely breath. It was a pretty heavy atmosphere. She held her breath and went inside. Beast boy turned into a mouse to see if he could find anything. As Raven moved forward she heard a shriek and turned around. The shriek was drowned, and she saw Robin veering Star's face and holding her. She looked as if she just saw a ghost, she probably did. Her sobs were covered by Robin's hand but muffled words could be heard behind, tears were already falling.

Raven listened carefully..

´Behind.. you.´

She quickly turned around just to receive a blow from the deathly shadow hunting her. She crashed with the wall of the hall and Starfire and Robin got out of the way. Starfire quickly ran to Raven's aid and Robin looked for the shadow, which had vanished, once again.

As he re- entered the room, he saw a green mouse quickly running outside with a squeaking noise. As Beast boy turned to a human, he shouted.

"DUDE LOOK…!"

Robin was engulfed in black aura that looked almost like Raven's only these was accompanied by glowing red eyes. Four of them. Wind began to blow as Robin shook uncontrollably on the air. Starfire and Raven got pasted to the wall, they're powers failing. Beast boy was sent back to the room. Over everything Robin's screams could be heard.

"GO GET TERRA! WE NEED HER HELP!" Raven screamed. Her cloak and hair were moving uncontrollably. Starfire nodded and tried to concentrate on flying. Surprisingly she took off to the doors. That's when the shadow spotter her and frowned. It took Robin from the leg and sent him flying to Cyborg's room. Then it caught Starfire and got her by the ankle. With a great force it threw her like a rag doll to the wall again and the crash made a huge dent, with her inside. She fell to the floor, her limbs loose and her forehead bleeding. Eyes closed. Raven whimpered in a low voice not being sure if she was still alive. The shadow smiled and then Robin lunged at it, but it disappeared.

When Robin found himself strangling the air, he frowned and stopped, Beast boy came out of the room rubbing his neck. Both of them had really bad cuts and bruises. Beast boy even had a black eye. Robin's eyes moved to the wall and he saw Starfire.

"What the?.." He looked at Raven.

She exploded. She had too much inside of her, and it all came out. She opened her mouth to talk, but instead a loud sob boomed across the halls. Tears flowed freely down her face and she hugged her knew burying her face in them. Beast boy felt bad for her and slightly tapped her shoulder, scared to receive a slap across the face. But surprisingly Raven caught him in a hug and cried on his shoulder.

Robin saw them and a smirk crossed his face, then he started walking over her. He walked slowly, afraid to be attacked again, but made his pace quicker when he saw all the hurting and marks she had. He got to her and turned her over. It was worse than he thought.

Her bottom lip was broken and her arms had purple bruises on them. Not to mention her forehead had a fresh cut and blood was flowing all the way down her temples. He shook her gently.

Nothing

She didn't move, she didn't respond, she didn't open her eyes.

He patted her cheeks. Still nothing.

"S-star.." His voice was surprisingly broken..

Still nothing. As desperation took over him, his eyes began to dampen and his lips to tremble. He shook her harder and grabbed her wrist for pulse. Not a heart beat.

"STARIFRE NO!" He screamed. Raven's and Beast boy's attention were caught. They looked at each other and Raven's lips began to tremble again, but she stood up and came closer to them.

Robin didn't know what to do. She wasn't breathing, she wasn't moving she looked… dead.

"please.. don't go.. we need you.." He said slowly, and moved her bangs out of her face. "I need you.."

Beast boy got to them and Raven was behind. All facing a scene they thought they had never want to see.

Robin shook her a bit more and he gasped for air, drowning in his tears.

"Dude, stop it." Beast boy said.

Robin had to accept it. It was Starfire after all, it wasn't that easy.

He got her hand and squeezed it. Then his tears fell to the hard metallic floors. His arms began to shake.

The sliding doors were heard and Terra came in, to find the horrible scene. She got there quickly and saw Starfire lying. She gasped.

Robin just kept crying, he didn't care who was there. He didn't care that his team mates saw him like that. He didn't care about what the hell attacked Starfire. He just didn't.

He got her hand once more and placed a stern kiss on it. "I'll never leave you." He whispered.

For a slight moment, he felt Starfire's hand returning the squeeze, and thought his imagination was playing with him, but looked at her hand.

It flinched.

He left her arm and looked at her face. Her chest rose, showing that air was being taken in her lungs.

Her eyes opened slowly and then looked around.

"Hey?" She said weakly.

"Terra snickered and Raven smiled while Beat boy high fived Terra.

Robin's sadness tears became happiness and he hugged her. He was so grateful, and even though a demonic shadow was playing with them, he didn't care. Right now, it was all perfect. His tears fell on her shoulder.

"Don't ever scare me like that." He talked into her ear. She looked at him and they're eyes locked, then Cyborg's faint grunts were heard coming out of his room.

"Dudes it's Cyborg!" Beast boy said. Raven and Terra ran with him to the destroyed room. Starfire began to stand up and Robin grabbed her.

"Hey, hey, wait." He said preventing her to stand up.

"But we have to go help, Cyborg is in.."

Robin kissed her. He couldn't handle her ever leaving him, ever. He wanted to leave clear how much he loved her. She was taken aback by it but returned it. Her hands made her way to his neck and his hands to her waist. Then they broke for a breather.

"I love you." He said.

She smiled and blushed slightly. "I do too."

Cyborg came out of his room with the rest of the titans following and smiled.

"All right! Did I miss something here?" He said mockingly.

Robin grabbed Star's hand and turned to look at him.

"Nothing new I guess." He said. He walked forward to him, Starfire by his side.

"How are you?" Robin asked. His metallic parts weren't even touched, but his human parts, they had blood all over.

"It's okay, just a paper cut." He said chuckling softly.

All the titans shared a laugh but Raven stood serious.

"Are you okay?" Robin asked her. She looked up to find all the eyes on her. She had no other choice.

"There somewhere I need to take you guys.. now." She said walking to her room.

All the titans looked at each other but followed. They didn't know where they were going or why, but Raven was sure of her decision.

They were leaving for Nevermore.

Did you really thought I was going to kill Starfire?

I'm not that bad.. (:

R&R and I'll update soon!
