Chapter 10: The Awakening
"Are you ready to die?" asked SEER. Daemon remained silent. He was focusing on something else.
"I'll take that as a yes" said SEER.
SEER quickly charged at Daemon, fireballs ready. Daemon lifted his hand, pointing it at SEER, and launched his greatest move.
"BESERK!!!" screamed Daemon.
SEER stopped charging, and prepared to guard against this new attack. Daemon began laughing, as though he had just won.
"How do you like my attack?" asked Daemon.
"That was your ATTACK? I felt nothing!" taunted SEER. Then the fireballs in SEER's hands disappeared. SEER fell to his knees, and began to glow red.
"What....did...you....do?" questioned SEER.
"My move eliminates you from within." Responded Daemon.
"How?" SEER weakly asked.
Daemon began to grin evilly. "By eliminating your control over your energy."
Meanwhile... In the mind of Starfire.....
Darkness. Darkness surrounded Starfire. Her mind was as injured as her body. Starfire simply stood in place, fear overwhelming her senses.
"Robin, I wish you were here" she said to herself. Suddenly a voice came behind her. "Why would you want someone who hates you nearby?"
Starfire turned around to see Daemon.
"How did you enter my mind? And what do you mean by asking 'Why would you want someone you hates you nearby?'"
"What do you think Robin was doing the week before he came here? I used a camera to see who he was researching."
Suddenly, a screen appeared.
"How did THIS appear in my mind?"
"I created a mental image to show you exactly what I have seen. To show you that however much you care for him, he does not love you. He does not even consider you a friend."
Robin was at his desk shuffling through papers. The camera zoomed to so Starfire could clearly see whom Robin was researching. "There must be an easy way to defeat her," Robin said to himself. The screen disappeared.
"No....."
"As much as I wish it were not true, Starfire, it is. Robin considers you an enemy. By the look on his face, he cares more about defeating you than defeating Slade."
"LIAR!!"
Starfire charged at Daemon, but collapsed to her knees in pain before she reached him.
"You are too injured to fight. You are broken physically and mentally. Now, I have broken you emotionally. Nothing stands in my way of eliminating you."
Daemon slowly walked toward Starfire, when the "ground" below him began to glow green.
"WHAT?"
Daemon barely teleported out of Starfire's mind before the ground he was standing on was destroyed by a large Starbolt.
Starfire was on her knees, crying uncontrollably.
"Why, Robin? Why...." She repeated to herself.
Back in the "real" world (I don't know how to put it)
Daemon suddenly backed away in fear.
"What power..." he said to himself.
"You cannot win," said SEER, who was struggling to keep control of his power. SEER suddenly smiled. "Not when Starfire has access to my energy."
"WHAT?" yelled Daemon.
"See for yourself." SEER pointed to Starfire, whose breathing, which before seemed pained, had relaxed.
"Starfire!!" yelled the Titans in joy (as much as Raven could show) when they saw this.
Robin knelt beside Starfire.
"Starfire... I should have believed you. I... I love you, Starfire." Robin choked out the last few words. Starfire's eyes slowly opened. She was fine!!
"Lies..." she said.
"What did you say Starfire?" asked Raven.
Starfire quickly pulled herself to her feet, much to the joy of the Titans, as well as the surprise of Daemon.
"Stop lying to me, Robin!" Starfire yelled.
"Star, he loves you. He may be an idiot about it, but he does," said a confused Cyborg 'How could she think Robin is lying? She believes every word Robin says.' He thought.
"Yeah, Star. You believe everything we say." said BB.
"I see.... So you all hate me..." said a hurt Starfire."
"WHAT?? What gave you that idea?" asked a now angry Robin. Robin realized he shouldn't have sounded so mad, but it was too late.
"Daemon showed me what you did in your room the week before this fight. You were researching and thinking of how to defeat me, were you not?" Starfire then turned to the other Titans.
"And you side with him! Raven! You can read minds! You easily knew what Robin did! But you did not tell me! You all hate me!" she yelled. Starfire finally turned her back to Robin, staring at the ground.
"I loved you, Robin. But now I see the truth. You always hated me. I should have known that I was destined to live in a world of suffering. I wish to stop suffering. ...Good bye" A few tears left Starfire's eyes as she said this. Starfire lifted her head to stare Daemon in the eyes.
"Starfire.... Listen..." started Robin.
"I will defeat you at ANY COST!!" Starfire yelled, pointing at Daemon. She pulled starbolts into her hands and flew straight at Daemon. Daemon easily dodged the starbolts, but realized what was happening. 'No..' he thought. It was too late. A giant green starbolt came from underground, sending Daemon reeling upwards in pain. Daemon soon landed on the ground with a thud.
"I...will....not...lose.." Daemon said, holding himself up with his right arm. The other was broken, as was his left leg.
"You are correct." stated Starfire. Starfire charged at Daemon. Daemon was unable to defend himself, and Starfire grabbed his head.
"We will both die. Here and now." Starfire finished. Starfire began to glow a dark green. The ground underneath them began to glow. Suddenly, a pillar of green energy shot up, surrounding both Daemon and Starfire.
Robin ran towards the pillar.
"STARFIRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
The other Titans simply stared in disbelief at what was happening. The pillar remained for about 30 seconds, and then dissipated. There was no sign of Starfire or Daemon.
... What have I done? I just started writing, and before I know it this happens. I promised angst, and this is what I create. Please read/review!!! Don't flame!
I apologize. I don't have any idea of how I'm going to continue this. Next chapter may just be a bunch of flashbacks. It might not. I'll see when I sit down and write Chapter 11.
