HI again. Thanks for the reviews. I will now be answering them.
Logan, and TribeKitten: Thanks a lot for the support.
Lia Fuentes: I will include more action soon. Thanks for the suggestion.
Michelle: I will reveal more and more things about Starfire's past as the
story moves on. Deathfire is supposed to be considered as an enemy by the
way.
Thanks to everyone! Here goes. R&R!

'There was a teenage girl in a field of flowers, in a lovely dress picking flowers.
She had made a crown out of them. She looked so happy at what she had made. A figure then approaches her.
"Ha. There you are little sister. I've been looking all over for you! Ooh! What have you got there? A crown of flowers made just for me? How thoughtful."
The older girl snatched it away started to run. "Come back! That's mine!" The younger girl ran after her. Soon both of them were flying.
"You can't catch me now little sis!" She laughed. She then stopped as she found another figure hovering in front of her.
"I suggest you return that now to your sister, Blackfire, or there'll be trouble." He said with a smug face.
"Whatever. I was just trying to have some fun. Here." She roughly threw it back at the young girl who instead of being happy was furious.
"You did not have to do that! Why do you always have to be the hero when you really are a pain!" The girl stormed off and left the manly figure behind.
"I guess she really does sometimes uses Blackfire's barbarian language when she gets mad." He said admiringly.
In a grand building, the same girl walked to her dormitory. As she passed by the throne room, she heard voices. They were voices of her parents and the parents of the boy she had just yelled at.
She tried to listen but then.. BANG!
~*~
Starfire awoke to a loud explosion. She had only one thought on her mind as she flew out of her room and started to form a starbolt in her hand.
"DeathFire!" She quietly said to herself.
When she arrived to the source and did see him when she arrived in the kitchen.
"Ahh! Star! I'm sorry! It's just that the pancakes exploded on the stove! I'm sorry!" She heard BB yell.
He was at the stove trying to blow the smoke out the window. She had just noticed that the walls were covered with the mix.
After getting rid of her starbolts she then brought her attention back to DeathFire. "May I ask why he is joining us for breakfast without me being notified?" She looked at Cyborg.
"Well because this morning when BB sent me out to get pancake mix I just happened to bump into DeathFire. So I decided to invite him for breakfast." He said calmly.
"You did what?" She whispered. Robin then pulled her out of the kitchen.
"Star? What's the matter with you? You've never acted this rude before. I know this guy is weird and don't trust him either but you can't give him anymore reason for him to be our enemy." He quickly lectured.
"I am sorry Robin. You are right. I should have never acted so impolite. Please forgive me." She started to walk back in when Robin pulled her back again.
"Star? Now that I think of it you're never impolite. Is there anything about this guy that we should know?" He asked suspiciously.
"Oh no reason really. I guess I just didn't get a relaxing sleep." She sweat dropped.
"Ok. Still if there's anything you'd like to tell me please don't hesitate alright." He then walked right back into the kitchen.
"For some reason I do not feel hungry right now." She said this even that she just realized she hadn't eaten since yesterday's lunch. She headed for her room but with seeing Raven on the couch reading she decided to talk to her.
"Raven? I wish your guidance in my problems." She asked her as she sat down next to her.
"If it's important then go ahead, talk to me." She put her book down and turned to her.
"Have you ever just hoped to get away from your troubles and you manage to keep them away and yet after some time, they come back?" She asked while not looking at her.
"I deal with my problems Starfire. I deal with them and then get ready for the next. There can never be any end to troubles either big or small. The point is you have to fight them or it'll just keep on coming back to haunt you. Is there any precise reason why you ask me this?" She asked Starfire.
"No Raven but thanks. You have helped by great quantity." She then left Raven to her reading and headed for her room. Meanwhile.
*
"Hey DeathFire! Do ya know how to play game station?" BB asked him as he picked up everybody's plates.
"Beast Boy! He's from another planet. Now why the heck could he know how to play Game station?" Cyborg asked coolly.
"Do you by any chance mean video games?" He asked enthusiastically.
The two boy's faces lit up at once as they dragged him into the living room. They drove Raven out and started to play.
"Can't they move the game to THEIR rooms and not distract other people that were there FIRST!" She yelled as she moodily headed for her room.
Robin thought for a minute after watching Raven leave. 'Something I just don't trust about that guy. Why is he making Starfire feel so bummed?' He watched the other boys play. He then walked to his room.
~*~
Beep! Beep! Beep! An alarm again was heard all over the Tower. "Titans! We have trouble in the Town Square. Mumbo broke out of jail. AGAIN!" Robin walked in to see the boys still playing.
"Let's go. Deathfire. Come with us too. We might need help." Cyborg told him. They then left.
"What is happening? Is there something wrong?" Starfire showed up at the entrance again.
"Trouble I presume. Let's follow them." Raven mysteriously had appeared in the living room and pulled Starfire behind her as they left.
*
Deathfire was just watching patiently as the other three titans fought. Mentally he was recording their attacks and abilities as well as their strategies.
"Yo Mumbo! You losing your touch if you think you can win by running away!" Cyborg yelled as Mumbo ran for it with the titans running after him. Deathfire flew right after them.
"We can't keep running like this. We have to stop him even if it's for a second!" Robin told the others.
"Leave that to me." He saw Deathfire fly past him. He stopped and watched as he powered up and sent some black energy towards the Amazing Mumbo.
"Huh? What in the world was that?" Mumbo had barely dodged it and had looked back to his attacker. "New kid huh? Well just like all my other audiences you'll just have to learn stage rules." He poofed out of sight.
Mumbo had run into an alleyway. He kept on running until he was stopped by a dark, glowing, shadow.
*
"Where are those fools?" Raven muttered to herself as she and Starfire had followed the damaged street to find the other Titans.
"Maybe we should go separate ways, we might find them faster." Starfire suggested.
"Fine. The trail leads two different ways here anyway. You take that that street and I'll go this way." They went separate ways.
Starfire flew down the street but heard a faint scream in a nearby alleyway. To her horror she saw Deathfire strangling the Amazing Mumbo with one hand and had an energy beam in the other.
"Deathfire stop!" She yelled as she too held a starbolt that was inches away from Deathfire's face.
He immediately let him go. "I'm terribly sorry Starfire. I did not know what I was thinking." He tried to lose the deadly glow in his eyes.
"And I did not know what I was thinking by letting you stay. You will leave now." She still had a starbolt in her hand and was about to fire when she heard Robin's voice.
"Star? Is that you?" Both of them saw the other titans running towards them. Starfire brought down her hand at once.
"Look guys! Deathfire got Mumbo." Cyborg yelled.
"Too bad Raven had to miss all the action." BB said smugly.
"You destroyed five blocks worth of damage. I am so jealous." Muttered raven that was now with them.
"Oh yea this calls for pizza night." BB squealed. "Let's go home!"
*
Starfire watched as the other Titans ate their fill. Even though her stomach was growling and she hadn't eaten all day, she did not wish to sit at the same table as 'him'.
All the others were still eating while Robin saw a lonely Starfire sitting at the couch with her hands folded on her lap.
"You ok Star?" He looked into her eyes and they looked back at him in return.
"I am very wonderful Robin. Thank you for asking. All this excitement and celebration is quite exhilarating." She could tell Robin wasn't buying that last statement.
"To tell you the truth Robin, it is not quite enjoyable. I am flattered that he came all the way from Tamaran to see me but I still have not forgotten the way he.." Starfire didn't get to finish as Deathfire from the table had noticed where the conversation was going so he interrupted.
"Well Robin I had so much pleasure in joining you for pizza. I also enjoyed helping you in defeating your foe. I hope we do it again soon." He then made a formal gesture and started to head toward the door.
"Hey! What about you go with us to the park tomorrow! We didn't get to finish our visit last time!" BB yelled over the racket.
"I'll look forward to it." With that last remark he secretly rubbed his hand on the wall and left.
Starfire at hearing this stood up to complain but found that she couldn't and collapsed on the floor because of her lack of food in two days. "Starfire!"
~*~
'The same girl could be seen in the grand palace. She was mad about something and was heading towards her room. She heard people's voices in the throne room.
"She is the formal age and it should be done now." She heard her father's familiar voice say.
"Yes I agree. Our son as well is of age and has showed liking to her for a long time." She heard a nobleman say.
"Very well then, they shall be told the news tomorrow and arrangements shall be made." Her mother's voice was also heard.
"Tomorrow engaged and a couple of years from now, married. Therefore our families will at last be consolidated." An unknown person spoke.
The girl was full of shock. She knew whom they were talking about and of course was objective to the matter.
She has to escape. She would run far, she where but it had to be far. She would keep in touch with her sister, Blackfire but that was it.
She couldn't accept it. She still had not forgotten when he 'accidentally' hurt one of her loved ones.
She remembered that day when she had such a strong friendship with a boy. His name was Silverfire. He mistook their friendship as something more and now her friend is on the nearby planet Tyrannous 6 getting treatment by specialists.
She had to get away. She then heard voices calling her name.
"Starfire! Starfire! Wake up please." She heard a familiar voice call but she just.. Couldn't . remember.
~*~
Starfire awoke on the couch with her being in Robin's arms. The others were huddled around them.
"Are you . ok?" Robin asked quietly.
"I think so." With that she hugged Robin and closed her eyes again.
'Why won't he just go and leave me alone.'
