Chapter 10 I can't do this.
Starfire didn't know what to do. She didn't want to hurt Spirit, but what about Jadis. She made a decision. Whether it was wrong or right, she wouldn't let this stop her.
"No mercy." She said, and drilled her starbolts into Spirit. She screamed in pain. Then she dropped down to the floor, motionless. Then Starfire opened her hand...she held the bracelet.
The crowd was cheering, and shouting. Starfire walked over to the sidelines.
"You really proved me wrong. You might have a chance. Tomorrow you're battling against Raven, so you need to get some rest." Jadis said in a loud voice.
"I am battling Raven?!" Starfire gasped.
"Yep." A voice said behind her.
Starfire turned around, Raven was standing there. She had her arms crossed.
"Could you give us a moment?" Raven said gritting her teeth, and looking at Jadis.
"One minute, then we must go." Jadis said, and walked away.
"What has gotten into you? You almost killed Spirit."
"Yes, but you almost killed Angelwing." Starfire said.
"That is a different story. I'm not the one who ran away, and changed into a power-hungry beast!" Raven snapped.
"I told you before, this was my choice. After all, you were the ones who rejected me."
"What? We didn't reject you, we just thought you needed more training. There is nothing wrong with that."
"You didn't reject me?" Starfire asked, in a quiet voice.
"No, we didn't."
"Starfire, time to go. You have a big day ahead of you." Jadis shouted.
"I am coming." Starfire shouted back. Then she waved at Raven, and left.
That night Starfire couldn't sleep. All this time, she thought they didn't want her. All this could've been unnecessary. But now she couldn't do anything about it. Tomorrow she was fighting Raven, and she had no choice. Her choice earlier she regretted. Spirit had done nothing. She asked for mercy, and she didn't give her any. Then, without thinking, she got out of bed and flew out the window. She was going to the tower, she was going to see Robin.
As she flew she thought about the past days. Robin had tried to bring her back, tried to help her, and tried to comfort her. But she refused all of his attempts, and left him in the cold darkness. She approached the tower, and saw something she didn't expect.
Robin was standing on the rooftop, staring into space. Starfire landed next to him.
"They are beautiful." Starfire said.
Robin jumped up and turned around. He saw her, and sat back down. "What is beautiful?"
"The stars, and the planets. They are just like the ones on my bracelet."
"Yeah, but none of them are as beautiful as you are." He said looking into her emerald green eyes.
She gasped, he thought she was...beautiful. She fell down to the ground, and started to cry.
"I can't do this. I can't fight Raven, I can't force you away." She cried.
He put his hand on her shoulder. "Star, please don't cry. I can't stand to see that."
She looked up. "What am I going to do?"
"It doesn't matter. Do what you think is right." He said.
She nodded. "I have to go before Jadis discovers I'm gone."
"Please stay a little bit longer." He said, and she did. After a while, she flew away. She flew into the window, and went to sleep.
The next morning, Starfire was woken up early. "Get up. We have to train before your battle! It starts at noon. Are you ready."
"I'm tired." She said while yawning. After her visit with Robin, she only got three hours of sleep.
"That won't matter, caffeine will do the trick. Jadis said, and gave her a soda. After Starfire finished they went inside the training room.
The stadium was completely full. People were even standing at the gates, and outside the door. Starfire, Jadis, and Raven were now the only people in the training room. Raven was again meditating, Jadis was writing something down on paper, and Starfire was putting on her bracelet. After it was around her wrist, she pulled down her sleeve. Raven walked up to her.
"Good luck." She said.
"Good luck to you to." Starfire replied.
It seemed only a moment, and they were on the field. The crowd was wild. Everyone was excited. Starfire searched the stands for Robin. She found him, and he smiled at her.
"I can't believe they are going to fight each other!" Cyborg said.
"Yeah, this feels weird." Beast Boy said.
"All right, all right." The announcer said. "Are you ready, for the last battle?"
The crowd screamed, whistled, cheered, shouted, and even did the wave.
"Well it looks like everyone's ready."
The crowd became silent. All Starfire could hear was her own heart. Sweat dropped off Raven's forehead. They were both nervous. It wasn't right for friends to battle against each other. They didn't want to hurt anyone.
Jadis was staring intently at Starfire. 'She can't back down now, she will win.' She thought.
Everyone and thing in the whole area was silent, not moving. The wind was heard blowing.
"Begin!" The announcer shouted.
