Hi everyone! Ya, so my last chapter was super short but I am on a time limit now that spring break is over. ( I no! So incredibly sad! Well ON With it! No I don't own Teen Titans, villains, etc...........

The three titans stepped out: Raven, Beastboy, and Cyborg. All their jaws gaped in astonishment. Before them, hundreds, THOUSANDS, MILLIONS! Of little metal bugs crawled around carrying a piece of metal that only Cyborg, maybe Robin, could carry! Beastboy shrugged, "Dude, this is sooo easy! Just squish them!" He turned into an elephant and stepped on about a hundred of them at once, he smirked once but he was surprised to be thrown from that position by ONE of the bugs. "O.k. so uh, not so easy," He said.

Robin helped Starfire off the R-cycle, "Ready we'll break in at the count of three, be prepared for ANYTHING," Robin instructed. Starfire nodded and they burst in, only to find a swarm of bugs.

"Robin, is this what you meant when you said, 'Be prepared for ANYTHING.' Robin nodded back. They first tried squishing them too, like Beastboy. But they quickly learned, LIKE BEASTBOY. Starfire wildly shot starbolts at them and Robin tried to punch piles of them that lurked in groups. It was useless. This went on for an hour until the bugs gathered together to create a huge, powerful, monster. Starfire kept throwing starbolts but it just kept absorbing them. Robin tried to punch it but it tried to absorb his hand and Starfire had to pull him out. Starfire flew into the air and threw a mass of starbolts at it. A box tumbled on the floor and Robin turned around. The monster came after Robin it opened its mouth and ran toward him.

"Robin look out!" Cried Starfire. But Robin wouldn't make it in time, or would he? Starfire swooped down and pushed Robin out of the way. Her foot was caught in a crack of cement.

"Starfire! No!" Robin ran to her aid but it was too late. The monster engulfed her. Robin's anger turned to rage.

"Let her go!" Robin cried as he pounded on it. The monster smiled and disintegrated into its earlier form of the many tiny bugs, but there was no Starfire. Robin was so mad he took anything he could find and threw it. He threw a box, a coat, and a pail of water. The water landed on a pile of a about a thousand bugs they screeched and formed into a metal block as the water hit them. The metal cracked and inside laid Starfire's left glove. Robin ran to it and picked it up, "Starfire, It'll be o.k. I'll get you out of these bugs somehow." Robin looked around for more water, he found a pail but right when he turned to throw it the bugs were gone. Just then Cyborg called on his communicator:

"Hey! Robin! We just figured out to get rid of these bugs! You throw water on them. We were almost done and they disappeared, I figured you and Star would-hey what's wrong?"

"Starfire! She's gone!"

"She ran away again! Oh, come on man! Just apologize!"

"No! You don't understand! The bugs! They, they, ate her and I don't know..." Robin knelt down and slammed his fists on the ground. Why did it have to be her? Why? Why couldn't it have been me?! Robin thought.

"Dude! We'll find her! We just gotta find those bugs! We'll be right over!"

Fifteen minutes later they arrived to a pacing worried Robin.

"Dude! We found them! But they are like way far away, we gotta get going right now!" Beastboy hollered from the car. Robin ran in, leaving the R- cycle behind. They sped through the evening and into about ten o'clock at night they caught up to them. They hopped out of the car, armed with squirt guns. (--- ya, a little funny. "Cough up Starfire!" Hollered Beastboy.

"Never! We need her power!" A metallic voice answered. Robin never felt so relieved and worried at once. At least she wasn't dead. But what if they couldn't get her?

The tiny bugs combined together again and started lashing electrical cords of fire at them. Raven and Cyborg fired their water guns at its right arm. It hardened and cracked open. Starfire's arm appeared, it wasn't waving for help but they could tell that the arm attached still led to the rest of her. After two hours they finally got the hose and squirted it. It screamed and twitched. Suddenly a great explosion came from it and metal flew everywhere. Robin ran to the spot. Starfire lay there, lifeless.

"Starfire! Wake up!" Cried Robin. He stared at her pale face and her closed eyes. He put his head up to her chest. Thump......Thump. But that was all he heard. A tear rolled down his cheek and he turned around in rage at the teammates, "Don't just stand there! Do something! Call an ambulance...SOMETHING!" At ten thirty she stopped breathing. Robin panicked with the rest of them.

"Give her C.P.R.!" Raven yelled. Robin knelt down and pressed his lips against hers. He gave her C.P.R. for only five minutes and she started breathing. He held her hand and stroked her hair gently. Her eyes slowly opened a little.

"R-Robin?" She whispered.

"Yeah, Star, it's me. Don't worry we're taking you home." Robin picked her up. Cyborg, Beastboy and Raven sat in front and Robin sat in back letting Starfire rest her head against him. He gently stroked her the whole way there. When they got home he laid Starfire in her bed and stayed there until he was sure she was asleep.

Iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

The next morning all the titans sat around impatiently, trying to watch some TV, anything, to take their minds off Starfire. "Friends? I am well!" The four titans turned around and smiled. Robin had never been so relieved in his entire life. All the titans came and patted her back and before they knew it, everything was back to normal. But something wasn't. At least, not for Robin. Robin gestured for Starfire to come into the kitchen with him. She got up and followed him. Robin stood in front of her, "Star, I have something to tell you. I was so worried when you stopped breathing. I think it made me realize that-"

Raven opened the door, "Trouble!"

The titans fought a now deranged Control Freak. Who thought that it was a video game and that even HE had kung-fu grip. Even Raven had to laugh about that...

This time Beastboy ate the evil candy. Cyborg and Raven fought off a swarm of video games and Robin and Starfire held back a monstrous, iron, video shelf. Robin threw a rope around it and tried to pull it down. "Starfire! Use your starbolts!" The shelf broke free and faced Starfire. Starfire's eyes lit up, but her fists were the same as always. She looked down at her fists in confusion. Another smaller shelf knocked her down. Starfire was about to regain herself when the emergency sprinklers went off (the type that put out fires.) The shelf had a blank look and it fell to the floor. On top of Starfire. It landed on top of her right leg and on her right side.

"Robin!" She cried.

Robin ran to her, "It's o.k. Star. I'll get this off of you." Robin tried to get the shelf off but it was too heavy. No one could get it off. Even all together. Robin knelt beside Starfire. Her face was pale, she was heavily sweating, even her hair looked weak, her breathing was very shallow and she slipped in and out of unconsciousness. She quietly mumbled "Robin...help...Robin...." This time Robin feared she WOULD die, and it would be slow and painful. They awaited a group of crewmen that would get it off. They entered, "Where's the trouble!"

"Over there!" Pointed Cyborg. The men looked startled at the state Starfire was in, one called on his walkie-talkie, "we're gonna need an ambulance."
