Hey! I hope you like this chapter but as of right now I don't know where
I'm going with this chapter! Lol.
Starfire lay asleep, peacefully dreaming. Her arm falls off the bed and sways a bit.
"Starfire Koriand'r." Came a voice, slow and deep, "Starfire Koriand'r." Starfire woke up, as if in a daze. The voice spoke to her inside her head and in her hand appeared a gun. She headed out of her room.
Robin sat in his room, studying his plans when he heard the door opening. He saw Starfire come in, her face expressionless. Her outstretched arm holding a cocked gun. He stared at her confused. She fired the gun, and it hit him right in the forehead. Well, it would have. The mirror shattered. (a/n: yes, Robin saw her through the mirror just as she saw him only she THOUGHT it was him.) Robin got up and stood in front of her. She didn't seem to notice him. Her arm had not moved. He waved his hand in front of her but she did not blink nor move. He took the gun from her hand and set it on a shelf close by, her arm still not changing from the position it had been in. He lowered her arm, "Starfire." She did nothing. As if it had proved him a point he said, "Starfire Koriand'r." she immediately snapped out of it.
"What? Where am I? Robin? What are you doing here?"
"What am I doing here? You're in MY room."
"I am?" she looked around, "I am! But how did I get here?"
"Slade controlled your mind, he told you to come and kill me."
"He did? How do you know?"
"I can recognize how you were acting and that I could only get your attention by your full name. And Slade is the only other person who can cloud people's minds aside fro me."
"Cloud people's minds?"
Robin sighs, "It's what I was doing the other day. I can make it seem like I'm not there, because I make you believe I'm not there. The only thing I can't hide is my shadow."
"But, he did not make it seem like he was not there. He just controlled me."
"Well, what do you think I do when I make it seem like I'm invisible. I control anyone's mind that comes near me. So then it appears I'm invisible."
"But, you say Slade controlled my mind?"
"Yes."
"Well, did you not try and do that very same thing a couple days ago?"
"Yah."
"Well, how come Slade could and you could not?"
"Well, I honestly don't know Starfire."
"Strange." Starfire looked at him.
"What?"
"Nothing." She quickly replied.
"Liar." He said, I little humorously.
"I am not!" she yelled.
"Are too so a liar!" he said, confusing him and her. She shook it off and yelled, still being a little immature since she was fifteen.
"I am not so a liar!" Robin broke into fits of laughter. Starfire looked at him puzzled, and then annoyed, "What is so funny!" This only made Robin laugh more. He hadn't laughed like this in the longest time, and has no idea why he is laughing so hard right now. Because, as you can probably all say with me, he just doesn't DO laughter. He hasn't really since he was twelve, when his brother died. Starfire was getting very irritated, and a little amused, but not wanting to show that to Robin and try to be as Lady like as possible resisted the urge to Star Bolt him. But she did not resist doing on thing. She grabbed him by the collar which still did not stop his laughing, and pulled him really close to her, "Why on Tamaran are you laughing so hard! I do not recall do anything funny!"
"I know!" he continued laughing, "But I just can't seem to stop." Her face went blank as she dropped him to the floor, still laughing.
"Fine, I will wait for you to 'calm down'." She waited a moment before he regained control of himself.
"Sorry, about that. I have no idea why I was laughing so hard. I just, haven't laughed really at all since, well. Never mind."
"Why never mind Robin?"
"Because, it's just. It's something I've wanted to forget."
"But Robin," he looks at her, "I care about you and wish to know that as long as you are stuck with me we can be friends and trust each other." He nods and begin to tell her about how his parents died and he had to take care of his brother. He told her about his dream, which turned out it was a memory from his past. And she told him of how he came to meet Bruce Wayne, or Batman, and the only real father he has now.
"Wow that had been building up for a while." Robin said.
"But you said it? And you are still alive are you not?" Robin smiled.
"Yah thanks Starfire." Robin made a mistake by looking into her green eyes. He found himself in such a foreign place that he'd never even imagined existed. He soon came to realize what it was and somewhere in the back of his mind said, 'Yah, but we don't DO romance!' he shoved it back into the back of his mind to leave it their forgotten when his lips met hers. Another voice was saying 'AGE DIFFERENCE!' 'So what?' he thought back, 'does it look like I care?" he thought and sent that one into an abyss when he deepened the kiss. He knew the Bruce had always said to never get involved personally with his job and maybe he was right, but at the moment he could care less. He was in a paradise he never knew he could vacation too. Maybe never even leave from how it was making him feel. All those silly little thoughts about work, work, work where seeing less important and the urge to defeat Slade was stronger, knowing that he couldn't let her get stuck with him. He began to kiss her passionately, as an almost 18 year old is usually expected to act. There was almost a three years difference between them but he could care less. She was kind, beautiful (!), and probably the thing that's been missing from Robin and the thing that will now hold him together. Before he even realized it they were on his bed. He knew damn well that he would want to go farther but he also knew damn well that he couldn't. Not now, not this time. It was far too risky, but he never wanted to part his lips from her. They occasionally would part for a brief moment to catch their breaths. It seemed that Starfire was holding onto him for dear life, and right now that's what he wanted. An excuse for him not to let go. But in an instant he did when he heard Beast Boy outside his door knocking. He looked at his clock and it read 7. 'But wait? I knew it was late when she came in. What 4:30? Wow! Have we really been making out for two whole hours!' Robin thought, "Uh hang on Beast Boy!"
"Dude! C'mon and hurry up! Us guys are supposed to go train! Raven said she'd watch over Starfire before you and her would switch off."
"Give me a minute. I'll meet you there! I know where it is!"
"Ok dude." Robin quickly took her outside and pushed into her room, but not before he quickly kissed her and shut her door right as Raven turned the corner.
"Oh, hey Raven. Lovely morning isn't it?" he asked nervously.
"Uh, yah. Sure."
"Um, yah I just checked up on Starfire. And she's awake."
"Um, I could've found that out myself."
"Hehe, oh yah. Right," he gulped, "So I'll be back in an hour or so, and we'll switch."
"Great." She said unenthusiastically. He rushed down to the training area and Raven entered Starfire's room.
"Raven! How are you this wonderful morning!" They begin to walk out of the room and down the hallway heading for the dining room.
"Just peachy." She responded in a monotone, but sick of this already.
The boys trained hard, Cyborg and Beast Boy were surprised to see how very experienced Robin was for his age. They decided to spar and Robin just about K.O.ed Beast Boy, "Dude, for a sidekick you're pretty tough." Robin glared at him before he tossed him out of the sparring circle completely, and he smacked into a wall, "I mean! Not sidekick! Hehe." Raven was getting used to Starfire for the most part and they even got to meditate for fifteen minutes before someone knocked on the door. Raven opened the door psychically.
"Um, am I interrupting anything important?" Robin asked. Raven opened one eye.
"No." she said as she got up and left, heading to the training area. She got there to see Cyborg messin around, or at least it looked like it, "What are you to doing?"
"We're trainin!"
"It looks like you're playing."
"Nope," Beast Boy said, "We are wrestling, you know just in case we get into a wrestling match." Raven rolled her eyes, "Wanna join in, Rae?" He asked with a wink.
"Don't call me that." She said venomously, which shut him up immediately
In Starfire's room Robin and her were doing what they were doing earlier. In that same feeling of never wanting it to end, there was of course and interruption. But it was much worse. Slade flashed in Robin's mind as a warning, telling him that he is soon to be here.
"What?" Starfire asks, "what is it?"
"Slade. He'll be here soon." He turns to her, "you can't stay here. We have to get you somewhere safe, or just anywhere else. I'll inform your father, pack what you need. We'll be leaving as soon as you're ready." He left and headed straight for the King's room, "Your majesty! Slade approaches and will be here within one day at least!"
"Oh no! my baby! Not my baby!"
"Sir that is what I'm here about. I'm taking her with me and the new recruits who arrived yesterday to someplace else."
"Where?"
"I cannot tell for fear of your own safety."
"No, I will not allow it."
"You have no choice, I call the shots when it comes to the protection of your daughter now."
"No! I'm sorry but I cannot allow it!" Robin stood in the shadows and said to him.
"Lord Koriand'r. you will allow me and the recruits to take your daughter some where else from Slade." The king repeated what Robin said. Robin stepped out of the shadows and the King returned back to normal and had 'agreed' to let Robin do as he proposed.
All five of them left Cyborg's ship.
"So," Began Cyborg, "where we headed captain?"
"Gotham."
"That's not safe!" Cyborg yelled.
"I never said we were going anywhere 'safe'." Robin pointed out. (a/n: he's right, he didn't say that at all!)
"But, why Gotham?" Beast Boy asked completely clueless.
"Think about it." Raven said. He did, for a few minutes.
"Oh!" He said, but then said a little more excited, "Oh! You mean we get to meet Batman! I mean the BATMAN!?"
"Yep." Robin said as if it was no big deal, which in his case really wasn't, "He'll be the only one you can help us. Besides, Slade doesn't KNOW who the REAL Batman is."
Ok, so this was short too, but I'm going straight to another chapter! Lol. Yes I am weird.
