Tameran's in sight and Robin's gone back to normal but still isn't talking,
well not much.
STORY:
"There it is!"
"Where?" Cy asked, looking out of the window.
"The little green planet over there." Blackfire replied.
"Cyborg, how long have we got left?" Robin asked, walking over to the window.
Cyborg flicked open the timer in his arm and looked at it.
"Thirty three days."
"That's ages!" Blackfire groaned.
"I thought you said we had to get back to earth as well?"
"Yeah. We better find it sharpish then."
The small planet got larger as they approached. They entered the planets orbit and hurtled towards the ocean. They were about fifty yards away from the water when the spaceship pulled upwards and leveled out. It landed smoothly on the surface of the water and the door slid open.
Blackfire was first out of the room. She ran down the ramp and floated into the air. Robin and Cyborg followed. Blackfire took one of their hands and they flew to land.
"Wow. This place is cool!" Cy admired, looking at the many mountains and lakes.
"Well, thanks." Blackfire smiled at the compliment.
"What are we waiting for? Lead the way to the library." Robin said.
"Yes sir." Blackfire giggled.
The three walked through the countryside and into a small village. Blackfire looked at home here and squealed in delight as two tameranians walked out of a cottage.
"Blackfire!" The old man wheezed.
"Father! Mother! It's good to see you again." Blackfire shouted, running into her mother's arms.
"It's good to see you Blackfire. Tell us, how is Starfire?" Her mother asked.
Blackfire looked down and stepped back towards Robin and Cyborg.
"Blackfire? Who are your friends?" Her father asked.
Robin stepped forward and introduced himself.
"I am Robin, from earth, leader of the teen titans. This is Cyborg, another titan."
Cyborg put a hand on Blackfire's shoulder. She turned and cried into his shoulder.
"I'm sorry, Starfire died a year ago." Robin said.
"No!"
Blackfire's mother gasped and her husband put his hands on her shoulders.
"How?" He asked.
"She was crushed by a car after a fight with the H.I.V.E."
"Who is this H.I.V.E?"
"They're a group of three villains."
"And they murdered my daughter?"
"Not exactly. We took her to the hospital, but the internal bleeding was too much for Star to handle. I'm so sorry."
"Why are you here?"
"Blackfire told us there was a way to get her back."
"Mother. We wish to ask your permission." Blackfire said wiping her eyes.
The two elderly tameranians looked at each other. Blackfire's father nodded.
"Oh, thank you!" Blackfire gasped.
"We're not doing this for you Blackfire. We're doing it for Starfire's friends." Her father said coldly.
"What?"
"We know you tried to frame your sister."
"You're going to judge me by that? Well, if you hadn't noticed I'm helping these two to get Star back!"
Blackfire's eyes glowed purple. Robin restrained her and she looked at him. Her eyes went back to normal and she let Robin hold her gently in his arms.
"Come on, we better get going. It was nice meeting you." Cyborg said to Blackfire's parents.
"Yes, I shall remember this day for a long time."
The two walked back into their house and closed the door.
"Come on Blackfire." Robin soothed.
Blackfire looked up at him and smiled weakly. He let her go and put his arm around her shoulders. They walked off together and left Cyborg walking behind them.
"This is just getting weird." He said to himself. "First Raven and BB now Robin and Blackfire."
He shook his head and walked after the pair.
