Ridiculously Romantic
Robin made his way down the streets of his city and never glanced once at the curious businessmen and woman walking home after their job. He ran and until he could run no more. It was getting dark outside, and he prayed that it was open.
He stopped in front of a large building and panted. 'This is it.'
The building had steps leading to the front door, which Robin stepped upon. It was a brown rusty color that seemed to be ancient, trees that were once alive and gleaming with green leaves, were now wilted and darkened with damp leaves.
Robin opened the door slowly, relieved that it was open. Once he walked inside, it smelt strongly of old people and musty books. One lady in a pink over suit was standing at the check out stand. She smiled and turned back to her book checking.
'WELCOME TO THE PUBLIC LIBRARY' the sign said in front of him. 'PLEASE RESPECT READERS AND BE SILENT'.
All around him were books sorted in different versions and compiled in old chestnut logs of shelves. Every thing was in front of him from 'fictional, non-fictional, biographies to mystery, romance and even horror'. None of them were what he was looking for.
He scanned the room and noticed there was a private back room. The sign above it read:
'Private Room. Incapable Readings to the Young of Heart. The Past.'
Robin closed his coat around him and walked innocently to the door, acting as though he were checking out the 'Biographies' next to it. The old lady watched him like a hawk, but soon grew uninterested as he grabbed a book and started reading.
Once she was looking away, Robin used his boy wonder powers and slipped into the room unnoticed. He locked the door quietly and found himself in what looked like a smaller, much smaller, library.
Two tables of mahogany lined up near each other in the middle of the clearing, and books in old copper shelves surrounded them. They were all old books of past newspapers and books that were banned from any reading to the public. He noticed that an old picture was hanging up on the wall and checked it out.
It was of a man dressed in a blue navy uniform and gray lock of hair. It was pulled back neatly in a low ponytail and his goatee was curled perfectly. Scary thing was, his eyes seemed to be watching Robin's every move.
Going back to the shelves, he searched for the book he was looking for. After ten minutes of unsuccessful searching, he found a large red book that was titled:
'American History 1915-1998.'
"Wow," He whispered, dusting off the dust that sank deep within the pages. "That was a long time ago." Robin sat down at one of the long tables and opened the book. The first thing he saw was an old headline in the newspaper about some guy committing suicide.
He flipped through pages and his eyes grew hungry with curiosity when he found the page he was looking for.
It was the page he had in his room, the one about his father killing his mother. If this book had that headline, perhaps it would have the next page? Robin scurried to find it, and when he did, it was already ripped out.
"What?" He snarled quietly. "How can that be!" He flipped threw a couple more, and found another headline.
'HEADLINE NEWS
Descrow Charged with Illegal Creations of Technology.
Slaten Descrow, age 34, was charged today with Illegal Creations of Technology after he was found creating some sort of wholesale destructional robotic form of a human. Researchers say he had been domiciling in a small hut in the woods mastering them to his perfection for some time now.
This was not the only time he as been charged with an illegal act against him, he had also committed crimes where he stole from corporations defining the uses of intelligent technology for NASA.
His hearing for a lock away in prison for a few years will be December 2nd, 1994.

"Good God!" Robin groaned. "I'm the son of a law breaker." Robin scanned the beginning pages and read something that caught his eye. It was a small part, but it caught his eye anyway.
'Homicide by Fire
Maniacal Lucifer Hellings killed both his son and wife on June 6th, 1916, Declaring that they would be in a better place when they perished. Before cops could capture and lock away Hellings, he sentenced his own death the same as his beloved ones, by fire. He threw his wife Deedee, son Devion and himself into the reddish flames of hell.
Whether he believed or not, killing your family will only send them to heaven and himself to Hell. Maybe it was what he insisted, but whatever the reason may be, he will go down in history for being such a crazed father and husband.
-(Writer and Reporter) Trisha Soundruck'
Robin had no words; he could only breath rapidly. 'Devion was killed in 1916? But how, when I just saw him a short while ago? How is it he is living?' He thought.
"Maybe," He whispered quietly. "Naw." He shook aside his thought. He looked at the date and the thought crossed his mind again. "June, that is the 6th month, he died on the 6th, and the year had a 6 in it."
He pondered it. 666. Hells sign. His father was Lucifer, and their last name was Hellings. "That is some scary shit right there." Robin said. The door cracked slightly, and the door wobbled.
"Is anyone in there?" A lady's old voice asked. "Hello? Is anyone in there, unlock this door now!"
Robin's breathing hit a hitch and unbalanced. There was no escape except that angry door. Hiding behind some shelves, he forgot about the book that rested upon the table.
"Bobby, I think we have a problem. Come and open this door." Sounds of keys clanking together were heard, then the door swinging open. A gust of wind washed through the room as the old lady and young man entered the room.
Slowly and cautiously, Robin creeped out the room and out towards the biography side. The two people stared at the book that lay in front of them and glanced at it suspiciously. "Some one was in here." Bobby said.
"Lets go." The older lady said as they shut the door. She gasped as she saw Robin's body and glared. "Did you have anything to do with that lock door young man?"
Robin smiled kindly and held up a John Steinbeck biography book and shook his head. "Sorry Ma'am, I don't. Just reading my book."
Bobby and the old hag glared and stocked off. Robin let out a relieved breath. He put the large book back and walked steadily out of the library. Once he was clear from sight of the suspicious people, he ran back to the tower.
*************************************************************
Black started swirling with white light as she fluttered her eyes and groaned. Finally feeling the intense pain throbbing in the side of her neck, she sat up groggily and stared at her area around her.
"Where am I?" She groaned again. Her neck was killing her. She squinted her eyes, noticing that there was only a blanched light shining through out her room.
She looked around the room that held her hostage. It was a black and pink room, filled with silk and velvet chairs and carpet.
Her bed was a silky black with satin pink pillows and black drapes. Her carpet was fluffy and as soft as velvet. Her walls, well lets just say they were not hard. They were tender and there were no windows at all. She was in a very elegant box.
"Where am I?" She spoke louder, standing up and getting out of bed. She held on to her neck and started feeling the walls for any sign of hidden door.
"You won't find it there my dear." A voice rang out. Starfire turned quickly around and scanned the lightly lit room.
"Who's there?" She called, whimpering as the pain seared through out her whole neck.
"My name is Slade." As Slade said this, he entered the room from the left wall. He started walking towards her, but she backed away. "Do not fear child, I will not harm you."
"I do not know you 'Slade', but a question is what I will ask."
"Go ahead child."
"Why am I here, oh and, I know this may seem dumb but," She blushed. "Who am I?"
Slade grinned. His plan was working perfectly. "You are here because, well I will show you why later. But your name, your name is Starfire."
"Starfire? That is an odd name." She said. "But I like it."
"It is very pretty indeed. Come take a walk with me Starfire." Slade said, holding out his hand. She took it and they walked out of the room.
"How is it that you can enter and leave my room as you please, but I can never find the door?" She asked, letting go of his hand as they exited the room. Slade chuckled.
"Because I created this place for people and things to oblige by my rules."
Starfire nodded. "Alright."
"Now Starfire, you are going to help me, and you are going to listen to me as I am your master."
"You are not my master! No one controls me!" She growled, stepping back.
"I brought you to this place, I rescued you and you will listen to me!" He yelled. Starfire cowered as his voice echoed menacingly through out the halls.
"How and why did you rescue me?" She said, trying to keep that subject off topic. Slade relaxed and walked towards his chamber.
"Hello? Are you going to answer me?" She asked.
"Quiet child." Slade said, before turning on his walled television. Starfire scanned the premises and stood in awe.
"Is this all yours?" She asked curiously. Slade smiled.
"Every single thing. Now listen up Starfire, I rescued because you were getting beat up by these people." He grinned and clicked a button.
Robin, Raven, Cyborg and Beast boy came into view. Starfire gasped. "That boy is green!"
"Starfire, they are an elite group called the Teen Titans. When you go up against them, they will try convincing you that you are apart of their team. Don't listen to them," he growled. "They will just beat on you again."
"Was, did I do something wrong to make them hate me so?" She said as she touched her neck. Slade shook his head.
"No. They did not like you, that's all." He whispered. He turned back to the screen and clicked another button. This time, Raven's face came on screen. "This girl is called Raven. She is from another dimension and is very powerful."
Starfire nodded as she stared up at Raven. "She can possess anything, so look out for her." He clicked another button and Beast boy showed up. "His name is Beast boy, and he is a changeling. He can turn into any animal he pleases, but aside from that, he has no other power."
"This one is called Cyborg. He is half Robot and half human. Watch out for his metallic body, he is loaded with weapons." Cyborg's rough face came into view. Starfire glared and nodded. Slade clicked one last button and Robin showed up. He grinned. This was going to be so much fun.
"And alas, Robin." Starfire's eyes softened. Slade continued. "He is the gang's leader. He was the one who sent them on you. He is the one I want, as my apprentice."
Her eyes snapped to his. "If this Robin is the one you want, why are you keeping me here?"
"Because I need you for me to get to him."
"And why is that?"
"Because his anger towards you will make him come and try to destroy you. If you follow my rules, you lead him back to me, then you are free to go."
"And you will never bother me?" She paused. "Ever?"
"Never again. One thing though, I need you to get dressed and get ready to be taught."
She glared. "What is wrong with what I am wearing?" Slade glared back.
"Just do as you are told." He watched as she sighed and started to walk back to her room. A gray ninja was leading her back. "Good girl."
"And where am I to be taught? The sewer?" She said disgustedly. "This place is so creepy, I bet the sewer is where you people train."
"No, the chamber of disputatious is where you will be taught." He motioned for her to go back to her room, and she did. Once she was out of earshot, he chuckled and stared up at Robin.
"You are mine."
*************************************************************
Robin came bursting into the tower. Raven, Cyborg and Beast boy were all sitting on the couch, discussing the problem. "Robin!" Beast boy said. "Robin, I think we have a lead to where Starfire may be."
"What?" Robin asked. "Where is she?"
"We are not sure, but Ayrasia said a masked man and like fifty ninja's were carrying a young girl towards the woods. They had passed her when she was out with her friend." Cyborg said, he was very proud of his girlfriend.
"Good." Robin said. "Get some rest, we will head out in the morning." He started walking to his room.
"Robin,"
"Bed Beast boy!" Robin said sternly, and then walked into his room. Beast boy took a step back and sighed.
"I tried."
"Its okay B.B, he's just upset." Cyborg said, walking into his room.
"Aren't we all?" Raven muttered. She leaned in and gave Beast boy a quick kiss on the cheek. "Good night Beast boy."
Beast boy grinned and pulled her back. "Hold on there!" He whispered, pulling her close into him. "Just a peck on the cheek? Just a peck? How about more?"
Raven sighed and turned to him. She smiled and gave him a peck on the lips. "Happy?"
"Not quite." He leaned in and swallowed her mouth in a feisty kiss. Raven gasped at the sudden action and finally let it. The sound of the door swinging open alarmed them.
"Hey Beast boy, I-" Cyborg called. He turned the corner and stared. Raven blushed.
"Cyborg, it's not, um, you got it all wrong." She blushed a little more. Cyborg gave her an odd look.
"Okay?" He drawled curiously. He looked around and raised an eyebrow. "Where's Beast boy?"
"Huh?" She said dumbfounded. She turned around and saw no one there. "He was um," Blushing more violently, she shrugged her shoulders. "I don't know!" She walked to her room quickly and closed it.
"That was weird." Cyborg shook his head and entered his room again.
A small green cockroach made its way underneath a door and slowly changed back into its normal form. Beast boy threw himself on his bed and sighed in relief.
"That was a close one." He said, before getting under the covers and closing his eyes.
*************************************************************
Three days had passed and the Titans had been searching day and night with out rest. Finally, after the third night, they all slumped down on the couch and rested.
"This search is so hard." Beast boy whined. "Why does Slade always have to do this?"
"Because he is a maniac who doesn't take no for an answer." Cyborg said. He looked at Robin. "You okay bud?"
Robin was staring at his hands and nodded. "Sure."
"You guys, I think something is up downtown." Raven said. Beast boy chuckled. She turned to him. "What's funny?"
"You said, up and down at the same time." He said. The teens stared at him oddly. He stared back as if it were the most obvious joke. "She said, 'Something is UP DOWNtown.'" He scratched his head. "You're right, it's not funny."
"Titans, GO!" Robin said, as they all ran out of the tower.
"Starfire, you know what to do, good luck." Slade told her, as she touched the Mic in her ear. "Right." She answered.
Starfire entered the next private shop and raised a green firebolt in her hand, aiming at the shop owner. "I want your power guns, and I want them now." She said sweetly. The owner nodded in fear and handed them to her. "Thanks cutie." She said, walking out. The owner's shaking hand reached under the counter and pressed the red help button.
Yep, Starfire had changed so much over the past three days. She learned the ways of Slade, and she had better English. She had no idea who her real friends were, and she had no idea who the real her was. All she knew was Slade's fighting skills, Slade and that the teen titans hated her.
She walked out and came face to face with the ones who had 'beat' her up. She glared, and handed over the power guns to the gray ninjas. They zapped out of there and left Star to handle things herself.
Everyone's jaw dropped. She didn't look like the innocent Starfire they had all known and loved. No, she looked like a sexy tramp, well sort of. What was she wearing?
"Starfire?" Raven whispered unbelievingly. "Is that you?"
"Are you blind?" She asked sweetly. Raven looked taken aback from her words. "Can you not see me?"
"Yeah, we can see you, but I don't think we believe its you." Beast boy said shocked.
"And why is that?" She said harshly.
"C'mon girl, look at you." Cyborg said. He elevator eyed her. Nope, not the same Starfire.
Starfire's hair was pulled back in a high ponytail with her long red hair swaying down to her lower back. She wore a tight dark green tube top that showed cleavage and a tight short mini skirt the same color. Her high heels were indeed high and the straps laced up around her thigh in dark black leather.
On her arms were dark forest green gloves and a small arm band of green dye. She had black mascara on with black eyeliner on. It was dark, but it looked good. Her eye make up had a gray and dark green smoky look to it and her lips were pink and glossy.
Around her neck was a clear choker filled with green liquid swirling every time she moved. She put her hands on her small hips and raised an eyebrow.
"Your point Tin Man?" She smirked.
Robin could not stop staring at her. What happened? She is so not Starfire anymore. "Starfire, what happened!?"
Starfire's bright emerald eyes glared at Robin. "Wouldn't you like to know." She walked over to them, shocking all that she walked so gracefully in her very high thin heels.
With a flick of her wrist, she produced a small, dark emerald energy ball and held it in her hands. She brought it close to her mouth and blew. The ball of green flame flew their way and exploded near their feet.
Raven put her shield over them and departed when the smoke had cleared. Starfire had her hands on her hips again and smirking.
"What is your problem!?" Beast boy growled. He started walking towards her. Starfire's eyes softened and looked at him.
"Don't come any further." She whispered, looking down. Beast boy looked back at his friends, but kept walking towards her. He smiled thinking she gave in. Oh how he was wrong.
Starfire produced in both of her hands together a large green ball and threw it his way. It exploded into his chest, and he went flying back in agony.
She giggled sweetly and shrugged her shoulders, putting on her best innocent face. "I did warn you did not I?"

Robin came bursting into the tower. Raven, Cyborg and Beast boy were all sitting on the couch, discussing the problem. "Robin!" Beast boy said. "Robin, I think we have a lead to where Starfire may be."
"What?" Robin asked. "Where is she?"
"We are not sure, but Ayrasia said a masked man and like fifty ninja's were carrying a young girl towards the woods. They had passed her when she was out with her friend." Cyborg said, he was very proud of his girlfriend.
"Good." Robin said. "Get some rest, we will head out in the morning." He started walking to his room.
"Robin,"
"Bed Beast boy!" Robin said sternly, and then walked into his room. Beast boy took a step back and sighed.
"I tried."
"Its okay B.B, he's just upset." Cyborg said, walking into his room.
"Aren't we all?" Raven muttered. She leaned in and gave Beast boy a quick kiss on the cheek. "Good night Beast boy."
Beast boy grinned and pulled her back. "Hold on there!" He whispered, pulling her close into him. "Just a peck on the cheek? Just a peck? How about more?"
Raven sighed and turned to him. She smiled and gave him a peck on the lips. "Happy?"
"Not quite." He leaned in and swallowed her mouth in a feisty kiss. Raven gasped at the sudden action and finally let it. The sound of the door swinging open alarmed them.
"Hey Beast boy, I-" Cyborg called. He turned the corner and stared. Raven blushed.
"Cyborg, it's not, um, you got it all wrong." She blushed a little more. Cyborg gave her an odd look.
"Okay?" He drawled curiously. He looked around and raised an eyebrow. "Where's Beast boy?"
"Huh?" She said dumbfounded. She turned around and saw no one there. "He was um," Blushing more violently, she shrugged her shoulders. "I don't know!" She walked to her room quickly and closed it.
"That was weird." Cyborg shook his head and entered his room again.
A small green cockroach made its way underneath a door and slowly changed back into its normal form. Beast boy threw himself on his bed and sighed in relief.
"That was a close one." He said, before getting under the covers and closing his eyes.
*************************************************************
Three days had passed and the Titans had been searching day and night with out rest. Finally, after the third night, they all slumped down on the couch and rested.
"This search is so hard." Beast boy whined. "Why does Slade always have to do this?"
"Because he is a maniac who doesn't take no for an answer." Cyborg said. He looked at Robin. "You okay bud?"
Robin was staring at his hands and nodded. "Sure."
"You guys, I think something is up downtown." Raven said. Beast boy chuckled. She turned to him. "What's funny?"
"You said, up and down at the same time." He said. The teens stared at him oddly. He stared back as if it were the most obvious joke. "She said, 'Something is UP DOWNtown.'" He scratched his head. "You're right, it's not funny."
"Titans, GO!" Robin said, as they all ran out of the tower.
"Starfire, you know what to do, good luck." Slade told her, as she touched the Mic in her ear. "Right." She answered.
Starfire entered the next private shop and raised a green firebolt in her hand, aiming at the shop owner. "I want your power guns, and I want them now." She said sweetly. The owner nodded in fear and handed them to her. "Thanks cutie." She said, walking out. The owner's shaking hand reached under the counter and pressed the red help button.
Yep, Starfire had changed so much over the past three days. She learned the ways of Slade, and she had better English. She had no idea who her real friends were, and she had no idea who the real her was. All she knew was Slade's fighting skills, Slade and that the teen titans hated her.
She walked out and came face to face with the ones who had 'beat' her up. She glared, and handed over the power guns to the gray ninjas. They zapped out of there and left Star to handle things herself.
Everyone's jaw dropped. She didn't look like the innocent Starfire they had all known and loved. No, she looked like a sexy tramp, well sort of. What was she wearing?
"Starfire?" Raven whispered unbelievingly. "Is that you?"
"Are you blind?" She asked sweetly. Raven looked taken aback from her words. "Can you not see me?"
"Yeah, we can see you, but I don't think we believe its you." Beast boy said shocked.
"And why is that?" She said harshly.
"C'mon girl, look at you." Cyborg said. He elevator eyed her. Nope, not the same Starfire.
Starfire's hair was pulled back in a high ponytail with her long red hair swaying down to her lower back. She wore a tight dark green tube top that showed cleavage and a tight short mini skirt the same color. Her high heels were indeed high and the straps laced up around her thigh in dark black leather.
On her arms were dark forest green gloves and a small arm band of green dye. She had black mascara on with black eyeliner on. It was dark, but it looked good. Her eye make up had a gray and dark green smoky look to it and her lips were pink and glossy.
Around her neck was a clear choker filled with green liquid swirling every time she moved. She put her hands on her small hips and raised an eyebrow.
"Your point Tin Man?" She smirked.
Robin could not stop staring at her. What happened? She is so not Starfire anymore. "Starfire, what happened!?"
Starfire's bright emerald eyes glared at Robin. "Wouldn't you like to know." She walked over to them, shocking all that she walked so gracefully in her very high thin heels.
With a flick of her wrist, she produced a small, dark emerald energy ball and held it in her hands. She brought it close to her mouth and blew. The ball of green flame flew their way and exploded near their feet.
Raven put her shield over them and departed when the smoke had cleared. Starfire had her hands on her hips again and smirking.
"What is your problem!?" Beast boy growled. He started walking towards her. Starfire's eyes softened and looked at him.
"Don't come any further." She whispered, looking down. Beast boy looked back at his friends, but kept walking towards her. He smiled thinking she gave in. Oh how he was wrong.
Starfire produced in both of her hands together a large green ball and threw it his way. It exploded into his chest, and he went flying back in agony.
She giggled sweetly and shrugged her shoulders, putting on her best innocent face. "I did warn you did not I?"
