Dis: don't own TT and stuff, blah blah blah. . .

Starfire plopped down on the couch and looked at Cyborg and Beast Boy, who were locked in a video game death match.
"Beast Boy? Cyborg?" she watched them, unsure if they were conscious of anything but the screen. They didn't answer. Their eyes were transfixed to the TV, with their hands clicking and pressing buttons automatically. She sighed and got up. Today had to be the most boring day in her life. Robin was busy with his strength training or whatever he did.
"I will help you train Robin!" she had offered cheerfully, in hopes of spending time with him. "Sorry Starfire, I kinda need to do this alone," he shook his head to her displeasure. Then, Robin launched his speech about how the rest of the team needed to train more instead of spending so much time watching TV. Starfire sighed. Sometimes she thought he was a little too uptight.
Raven one the other hand, was in the depths of her room, doing who knew what. Once in a while Starfire would meditate with her. But today, Raven didn't answer her knock and Starfire knew better then to go in with out her permission.
So, now, she was stuck in the tower, doing nothing all day. She looked out the window once again. The sky was a dark gray color and in the distance, an even darker cloud hung over the ocean. Great. . . On the shore, something lay sprawled out on the sand. Starfire squinted her eyes to see what the object was. Suddenly she realized, it was a person.

A cold shiver ran down the girl's spine and she pulled her wool-lined jacket tight around her thin body. With only a light Tshirt and wornout jeans besides the jacket, the stiff coldness cut through them much too easily. The alley was so dark you could barely see down it. Wispy puffs of steam rose from her mouth as she walked briskly down the pavement, knowing 'he' was behind her.
The girl stopped suddenly and looked up to the sky. She gathered her strength. This was it. . . A gust of strong wind blew around her and she flew up into the black, moonless sky. Somehow, maybe somehow, she could get away this time, she thought, too scared to look behind her. Then, it all happened too fast. Too fast for her mind to comprehend. . .
An icy cold grip wrapped around her neck and forced her down, sprialing to the ground. Paralyzed. She laid helplessly on the cold pavement.
"I thought you knew better than this Zephyr," the horribly familiar voice echoed in her head, still unseen in the deep darkness. Zephyr. Was that her real name? She couldn't think straight. All he ever told her was lies.
Suddenly something rough and sharp-edged ran across her face. Something that felt like sandpaper. Zephyr opened her eyes. It was a dream. One of those dreams. . . Her face was dug into a bank of sand, the waves crashing at her feet. She stared, temporarily blinded by the bright light, trying to decipher the blurry things that stood over her. She laid there, too dazed to remember what happened. Her mind flashed back to the water. Deep blue. Zephyr got up suddenly. Gotta get out of here. This was happening too fast. . . The world was silent. She rushed past the figures around her, without a word. Blackness closed in and out on her eyes and she swayed, as if an unknown wind blew. She struggled to release herself from her water-heavy coat. She thrust it to the sand, disgustedly. That was probably what made her about drown, she thought as she glared at it, crumpled on the ground.Then, she kneeled to the ground and threw up water. This was no longer a dream. Reality. This was reality.
