After the incident at the clubhouse...

On the rooftop of the Titans Tower, a beautiful moon can be seen from there. People would often climb up the rooftop to see the quiet scenery before going to bed. It can make your feelings calm down from the depressing thing of reality. One of the many methods to escape from society temporarily. However, there is one person who wants to escape reality permanently. Her heart was deeply wounded by the fact that her friends favor her elder sister who is skilled in fighting. Knowing that there is no way she could beat her, and therefore, understanding that her sister is a better Titan than herself, she packed her things and was ready to leave her friends without saying goodbye.

She slowly walked up on the rooftop as she looked up at the moon. She finds it beautiful but sad at the same time. Thinking that the big white-colored planet is reflecting her sorrows. She sighed when the moon sympathizes with her feelings. It even made her sadder when she has to leave right now. The reason why she is thinking this way that during the dance party at the club, she was attacked again by the unidentified tentacle object. She tried her best to defeat them by herself, yet couldn't handle it at all as she was thrown away into the dumpster. When the other Titansーminus Greem who was not around during the incident and no one knows why he wasn't there, including Blackfire herself doesn't know about it after their private thingーwere there to assist Starfire but Blackfire was the only one who defeated the probes without catching a break. So in the end, Blackfire was the one who came to the rescue and destroyed all the probes. The Titans were amazed to see how skillfully she was in the fighting, Cyborg and Beastboy proposed to her join the team. Raven agreed too as well as Robin. That was the catalyst for Starfire to leave the tower immediately. Only if she knew the fact that Greem wasn't present at that time. But she didn't care about it at all as her heart was shunned deeply by the event.

Recalling the memories of what just had happened recently, she quickly shook her head as to forget those events. She wants to forget as soon as possible so she could start her new life, somewhere in the galaxy, all alone...by herself. But inside of her, she wanted to stay and prove to her friends that she is a better Titans than Blackfire. However, no matter how she wanted to stay, she needs to accept that her friends want her elder sister than herself in the team. So, further imploring the things about Blackfire's superiority, her mind has slowly made up to leave in this instance quietly.

"She will be a better Titan than I ever was." she quietly said, "I am not good enough." And so, she took off from the building to fly into space. But her movement was being halted when a good friend of hers called out Starfire.

"Were you going to leave without saying goodbye?"

She looked at the doorway and saw Robin standing there. The Boy Wonder looked up at her with a worried look. Seeing his worries on his face, Starfire descends back on the rooftop with her head hung down. She didn't want him to see her sad face so she looked away. She slowly opened her mouth and asked "Robin. Am I the worst Titan for you?"

Taken by surprise by this question, Robin was about to ask her "What's that suppose to mean?"

But their private chat was being intervened when the sound of an approaching craft draws a gasp from her and an over-shoulder look from him. The two looked at the object and it was a spaceship that launched the probes to capture Starfire! On the spaceship, one of the crew was standing on its flat top deck. It has a claw on his right arm which lashed out a long tentacle to push Robin away. Once the Boy Wonder is being pushed to the further side of the building's roof, it then wrapped around Starfire's body as it takes her away from the tower. Robin saw what just happened as he ran towards to get on the ship. But it was too late! The ship had already left behind the tower as it begins to fly towards the moon.

"Damn it!" he yelled. "I need to get the others to rescue Starfire!" And so, he went back to the living hall and assembled the other team members to bring back Starfire. However, when the other Titans were being summoned by their leader, Robin noticed that...Greem and Blackfire weren't there with them. He wondered where the two had been on this such crisis, but there is no time to look for it as he hurried the remaining Titans to stop the spaceship.

On the spaceship, the robotic lobster looking crew pressed the buttons on the machine to summon a force shield around Starfire. Being trapped in this force shield, she could not use her powers to free herself as she is being restrained by a metal rod and being gagged on her mouth. No matter how hard she tried to call out help for her friends, the crews silenced her with words of threat.

"Silence criminal!" the crew said who is standing in front of the captive. "You will be punished for your crimes to the Grand Centauri Empire!"

"You will be judged by The Courts of Elder Centauria. Till then, do not make any funny moves or we will electrify you in our own hands!" said the other who was on the top deck, steering the ship.

Feared that she is gonna die by the two Centaurian, she almost lost hope that her friends won't be able to save her when the ship is about to leave from the earth orbit. However, she should rethink it when another Titan had arrived just in time on the ship. And that friend happened to have the ability to fly on a jet pack.

"I think you should lay it off you two."

The two crewmates looked back at the front of the spaceship and what they saw was Greem the Mandalorian, wearing a new jetpack that is equipped with a top-loaded, rocket firing missile. How he got the new jetpack when his old one was destroyed during the fight against the H.I.V.E, was that he was lucky to find a secondary one, stored in his fighter's storage. And also, happened to have a copy of a blueprint to mass-produce the jetpack, in case he got his own destroyed once more in the fight. But of course, he won't happen again as it is his prized possession and therefore must take care of it properly from now on. I'm really glad I have another one, he quietly thought, otherwise I won't be able to catch with it.

Starfire was deeply surprised to see him, coming to the rescue. Cause he hasn't shown back at the clubhouse incident and wondered where he had been since then. She has many questions to ask but it is better to wait right now before she makes her life harder if she dares to make funny moves to escape from the force field.

"Who are you?!" one of the crewmates asked, "Are you also an accomplice in her crime?!"

"No." he replied, "But I am her friend. I am here to tell you that you got the wrong person."

"Wrong? Do you dare to fool the Centaurian?! You shall pay for stopping us!" And thus, the battle began when the crew, who was in charge of locking up Starfire in the forcefield, went to attack Greem. The crew used his claws to attack the Mandalorian, attempting to snap the body into pieces. But Greem dodged all the attacks easily and rolled over between the legs and head towards Starfire's position. Seeing that the Mandalorian is going to open the force field, the crew lashed out his tentacles from his right arm to restraint Greem's move. But Greem saw it coming when he looked back at the incoming tentacles. He grabbed the tentacles with both of his hands and used his vambrace to send stunning electricity to give a shock. And when the electricity reached inside the Centaurian's body, it electrified all over its body, emitting a cloud of smoke from a crab-like face's mouth.

Seeing her crewmate being stunned by this Mandalorian, the other Centaurian who was steering the ship began to open fire at the enemy with a laser bolt from her right arm as well. Greem ducked down from the baster bolt as he used the force field as he covers. He could immediately deactivate the force field and leave the ship right away, but if he presses right now, Starfire might get hurt from the Centaurian's blaster bolt. So he brought a flash grenade from his utility belt and threw it over into the top-deck. When it exploded, the steerswoman got her eyes blinded and lost control of the ship. As it began to descend directly to the ground, Greem quickly deactivates the force field and carried Starfire like a bride. Before the ship touched the ground, he took off from the ship and flew somewhere safe from the impact of the Centaurian's ship crash.

Starfire blushed a little when she was being carried like this. She dreamed of doing it by someone who deeply loves her in a situation when it is merry. But not in this situation when it is dying. She looked at Greem and saw how...strong and reliable he is. It is very silly to think now cause she has been fighting crimes with him for the past few weeks but being saved by him when her friends haven't shown up, really changed her perspective that Greem will always be there for her when she is in trouble. She started to feel ashamed of herself for slapping him at the dancing party and saying awful things against him for what he dumping her to go on a date with Blackfire. She should apologize to him when the matter is over. Till then, she needs to know why the Centaurians were after her for a crime she hasn't committed.

When Greem landed down safely on the ground, he removed the restraints from Starfire's body and helped her to stand up. Starfire looked at him and said "Thank you...Greem. For saving me"

And Greem replied, "Your welcome, Starfire. I'm glad I was in time to save you." He smiled beneath his helmet and gave a nod to her question.

As the two were standing far behind the crash site, the other Titans finally caught up with them from the two's back.

"Greem! Starfire!" cried out Beast Boy. The two looked back at their friends and their friends were glad to see Starfire is saved.

"You okay Starfire?" asked Cyborg.

"Yes. Greem saved me before the ship leaves from Earth."

Then Robin looked at Greem and gave him a suspicious look as he wants to know where the Mandalorian has been all along. "Where were you when I assembled the others?"

Greem replied, "I had an important matter to take care of Robin."

"And that matter was..?"

Then suddenly, from the crash site, the two Centaurian climbed up from the wrecked ship, indicating that they haven't given up to get Starfire. The Titans were about to get ready for a fight, but Greem stopped them from doing as he answered Robin's question. "You will find it out soon..."

So when the two Centaruian approached the Titans, one of the two shows a badge to them from its chest plate. It has the insignia of the Grand Centauri Empire's government, meaning that they belong to the authority of the empire and have every right to arrest Starfire. "In the name of the Grand Centauri Empire, you are all under arrest!"

The team, except Greem, was shocked to see the badge that they are the police of the Centauri. Beast Boy responded to them naively that the Titans are the good guys while the Centaurians couldn't be the good guys. Thinking that this is some kind of joke.

But sadly, it wasn't when Greem clearly dissolved Beastboy's doubts. "No, Beast Boy. They are telling the truth. They are the highly proud officers of the Centauri system. The reason why they came to earth is that they were looking for someone who had committed a crime on their planet. And that person happened to be the same race as Starfire."

"The Tamarian?" Robin asked.

"Indeed."

"But, I haven't committed a crime one of the planet Centarui's system. This must be a misunderstanding!" said Starfire as she looked at her friend Greem.

Greem looked back at her and the other Titans. He let out a long sigh as he turned his body to them. "For what am I about to show you all...you will be deeply saddened by the fact that the very person whom you think was nice and friendly..." he slowly brought up his left arm and began to play an audio record from his vambrace, "...turned out to be a filthy scoundrel." When he played the audio, it shows two sound waves, displaying the fact that this audio was being recorded by a two's conversation.

"Blackfire: So tell me Greem, what do you want to know about me~?
Greem: I want to know how much you love your sister Starfire.
Blackfire: Her...? Why?
Greem: Just curious. Cause I want to know how close you two are. Is it bad that I ask about it? A guy who is crazy about you~?
Blackfire:(Giggles)Well~at least it won't hurt a bit to tell you about it...But I could say that she is a pain in my ass. My parents always adore her and treat her as if she is their first child. I was being treated as an outcast within the family. It really sickens me how much love she has received from them.
Greem: I see. So why did you visit here then? Saying that you hate her for getting all the attention.
Blackfire: Oh well I just wanted to hand the gift I stole from the Centauri's system. I just want to look on her face when she is being sent to jail and locked up in a dirty cell for the rest of her life! Or...seeing her dying by the hands of the Centauri's executioner. I heard that they are very professional in handling criminals like her~(chuckles)
Greem: Hmph...I see Blackfire. You are really...a naughty girl~.
Blackfire: Thanks love~."

And after hearing the crucial part of the conversation, he ended the audio play. He afterward looked at the Titans' faces and they were all heavily shocked from listening to it.

"No way..."

"How could she..."

"Do it to her..."

"Very own sister..."

Beast Boy, Cyborg, Raven, and Robin began to feel pity for Starfire that Blackfire wasn't the type of a reliable, kind-hearted sister. They couldn't bear the truth that this is Blackfire's true colors: Cruel and Manipulative.

Starfire began to teared down a bit from her eyes as she finally learned that her sister...wanted to ruin her sister's life by the hands of this sinister plot. All the fun time she had gone through with her sibling was a backstabber who was so jealous of getting attention from the people around her. Especially the love from her parents. Now remembering a bit of her childhood, she knows clearly remembers most of the scenes that she spent with Blackfire weren't smiling at all. She could have noticed it and asked her parents sooner so Blackfire could receive the love she wanted. But she was too pure in these things and didn't understand fully what was going on in the adult's head. It is a matter of time that she finally understands the truth of why Blackfire wasn't given the love she needed. A hidden dark truth in her family.

She wept her tears from her hand and looked at Greem. And asked if the conversation between him and Blackfire were true.

Unfortunately, it was. As Greem replied to her with hesitation. "Yes, it is."

"We were a fool to like her in the first place..." regretted Robin. "I should have suspected her from the beginning."

"No, Robin. It's not your fault. There are times when things sound natural and believable. I too was almost fooled by it until I learned about the Draconis Nebula." He goes to show a map of a galaxy where the Draconis Nebula is from his vambrace. On the map, they could see countless black holes moving around like balloons. And in between the black holes, an emblem of the Grand Centauri Empire is being shown. "Around this area, that's where the Centauri's outpost is. It is as stubborn as a mule to be sucked in the black hole. I assume that she was saved by the Centaurian and took it for granted as their guest. I don't know how she knows about the diamond, but I think one of the soldiers made a slip of the tongue about the existence while she was walking in the depths of the station. Therefore, started to fabricate a plan to ruin Starfire's life."

"So that's the reason why the probes were sent! They are military recons" understood Beast Boy.

"That's right."

"But didn't they recognize Starfire isn't Blackfire in the first place?" asked Cyborg.

"She seemed to have the right materials to disguise as Starfire, Cyborg. And that's why the two officers didn't think Blackfire was the culprit they were looking for."

"Ohhh...that makes sense."

"But now we know that Blackfire is the one who is behind this, where could she be?" Robin asked.

"Don't worry. I have it under control. I've put a tracking device on her back when I was having a date. And if my calculation is right..." he showed up a red color dot that is flying above Greem's position. "She is above us."

"Ah, nice!...WAIT, WHAT?! YOU HAD A DATE WITH HER?!" surprised Beast Boy.

"No time to explain. We have to catch her now." Greem replied as he looked up at the sky once he stopping the red dot.

Then, when he was about to catch Blackfire, Starfire stopped him from taking off the ground as she handed the diamond to him. "Let me handle this, Greem. This is my family's problem." And just like that, she quickly hovered from the ground and went to deal with her sister's betrayal.

As Blackfire went higher and higher to escape from the earth's orbit, unbeknownst to her that her sister had caught up when she appeared right in front. Suprised Blackfire as she smiled nervously. "Oh hello, Star. You know I have to leave soon. I couldn't stand to see your sad face and-"

"You are a criminal, and you were going to ruin my life by forcing me to put in jail behind bars!" Starfire interrupted.

Taken by surprise to her younger sister's seriousness, she stepped back and said "Oh...umm...yeah...?"

Then Starfire further commanded Blackfire to surrender and to receive the punishment she had done for the Centauri's system. "You will give back what you have stolen and turn yourself to jail!"

But Blackfire didn't accept Starfire's commands and she leaned into her sister's face. "And what will you do if I don't?"

Starfire hesitated for a moment but answered back with an assertive attitude "Then...you will give me no choice to fight you...!"

Blackfire smirked as she provoked Starfire with her index finger. "So...? What are you waiting for? Come and fight me!" She quickly warmed her purple-colored star blast as to sent Starfire away. Starfire received the sucker punch which made Blackfire laugh. "HAHAHA! You can't beat me Starfire! I always was a better fighter~!"

Had enough of this insult from her sister, she stopped the tumbling by force and flew back towards her sister with her eyes glow in green. "NOT ANYMORE!"

And so the two began to throw each other their blaster bolts. They kept shooting it as if the pair were human-sized machine guns. This kept going on for a few minutes which made everyone comes up with a quick question who is gonna win? Well, Blackfire's blaster bolt is more powerful when she sent her sister away with one hit, but in terms of accuracy, Starfire is the best. So Starfire stopped shooting her blast bolt as she approached nearer to her sister while dodging all the incoming bolts. As doing so, she warmed her blast bolts to become a bigger one. And just when she is in the right position and at the right time, she unleashed the bolts from her hand which was a direct hit in the face!

Blackfire got herself knocked out by Starfire's bolt and was sent back to the ground when Starfire grabbed her to perform a Tamarian style powerbomb. The ground shook a little around the area which left a small crater. After letting go of her grasp, she hovers back to her friends and stands beside Greem. Then the two Centaurian came to apprehend the culprit as they locked Blackfire in a portable force shield. And of course, restrained her to avoid her getting away. "Blackfire of Tamaran. You are under arrest by the Grand Centauri Empire."

"Owww..." groaned in pain as she couldn't stand up straight. So the two Centauri police carried the captive carefully into the ship and thanked the Titans for assisting their arrest. And when the ship finally left the planet, the Titans except Greem began to apologize to Starfire. For favoring Blackfire.

"We are sorry Starfire," said Robin.

"Yeah, we kinda carried away when Blackfire showed her skills."

"We didn't know that she was a mean person."

Starfire shook her head as she accepted the three boy's apology. "It's okay Robin, Cyborg, Beast Boy. I was also surprised that Blackfire planned this all along when she came to visit me. Still...it was nice to see her again."

"But if she ever does something horribly to you, then we will be ready!" Robin cracked his knuckles to show that from now on, he won't make any mistake. That also includes Cyborg, Beast Boy, and Raven.

"Thanks, friends! I am really happy to have you all!"

"No problem!" Beast Boy replied with his thumbs up.

"Now we know we have to prepare for Blackfire if she ever comes again, I think we have a little interrogation with our friend here~" grinned Cyborg as he looked back at Greem. Greem looked at Cyborg's grinning face and stepped back in a few steps. Fearing that this doesn't good.

"W-what?"

"Oh yeah, Cy! I do really wonder how far he went with her~" agreed Beast Boy.

"Seriously you two?! This is not the right time to ask that question!"

"Oh come on Greem! Tell us! How far did you have your way with Blackfire~?" As the two comedy duo goes to approach him like a creepy middle-aged man who asks a teenage girl to know their chest size. Feeling threatened by the two, he quickly ignited his jetpack to get away from them.

Seeing him running away in the air, Beast Boy turned into a pterodactyl and picked Cyborg with his clawed feet so the two can catch up with Greem.

Raven let out a sigh when she saw this foolish thing being taken in the air. She shook her head sideways and just began to walk back to the tower. This was followed suit by Robin and Starfire. However, the two found it funny when the comedy duo is chasing after the Mandalorian. They chuckled with each other as they too walked back home

Back at the tower, Greem was in his room sleeping. After being bombarded by the two comedy duo's question about Blackfire's date, he had no choice but to use his vambrace to stun the two so he could get some good shut-eye. As he was about to have a dream inside his head, a knock on the door was being made. He opened his eye and climbed up out of the bed to see who is knocking on his door in the middle of midnight. And when he went to open the door, he saw Starfire standing by the doorway.

"Starfire? What are you doing here?" he asked. "Isn't it a bit too early to get up? The sun hasn't shown up."

"Oh, I do understand it's still dark friend Greem." she replied, "But I came here to say something to you."

"That is?" He began to listen.

And Starfire took a deep breath and started to say it from his heart. How sorry she was to Greem. "I am sorry for slapping your face at the dance party and said nasty things about you. I assumed too quickly that you have played my heart. I even thought that...you are an awful friend..." she said as she looked down on her feet.

After listening to her apologize, Greem brought her face when he gently patted her shoulder. She looked up and saw a warm smile on his face. "It's okay, Starfire." Greem replied, "You have every right to be mad at me. And I am sorry to make you sad too when Blackfire forced me on a date. At that time, I was manipulated by her words. I don't know how she did it but when she whispered into my ears, it somehow controlled my mind without letting me notice it. It's as if she used some kind of magical power that wins the male's heart. Do you have those types of techniques when you use them to seduce the opposite sex?"

"Oh umm. I am not familiar with it. Maybe it's one of those secret techniques that only a few of Tamarian warriors know how to wield it."

"Hmm, maybe."

"Well, I am glad you've forgiven me for what I had done to you. I hope everything will be okay from now," said Starfire as she made a big smile on her face.

"Me too, Starfire." he tapped her shoulder once more and chuckled a little.

"Well, goodnight Greem," Starfire said and she leaned near to his face and gave a peck on his cheek. "Sweet dreams~."

A little surprised to receive a kiss from her but felt it nice as he touched his cheek.

After Starfire left away from his room, he went back to bed and quickly closed his eyes. Before getting a kiss from Starfire, he hopped that he could forget the things that had been done with Blackfire on his date. The memories of what he had done with her are something that he wants to forget soon. He didn't want to recall something unpleasant in his head If it is possible. But this time, he could sleep happily as he received a kiss from a Tamarian girl. He couldn't help but smile as he began to have a wonderful dream about having a fun time with the innocent alien, Starfire.
