Chapter 12: Worst Fears Part 3
As Starfire walked through the dark streets of Tamoran, she wondered why no one was around. All the windows were dark, and not even a sound was being made, except for the footsteps of Star herself.
"Hello!" she called out.
No answer. Star called out again, but still no one answered. She was all alone on her planet, and desperately wanted to find someone. She hovered in the air for a moment, and flew into space, hoping to find someone on Earth. She picked up a small oxygen tank, and flew off into deep space. She flew for a short while, before arriving near Earth. She flew slowly into the atmosphere, and looked at Jump City. It was dark, and desolate, like her home had been.
"Does this mean...I am alone?" she said sadly, "But, why, and where has everyone gone to?"
A voice in her head yelled at her, "Starfire!"
"Hello?" she said, "Is someone there? No, no, I am...just imagining it."
Star flew away into the cold vastness of space. She began searching for any sign of life, but everywhere was the same. Finally, after what seemed like hours, she broke down and cried. Starfire always hated being alone, but now, it had happened.
"Robin, Beast Boy, Raven, why have you betrayed me?" she moaned between her tears, "I thought I was a good friend, but I suppose no one likes me. They must have all gone away, to another dimension somewhere, because of me. Even my own parents are not still here. I must be...bad," she cried, tears coming harder than ever.
"Starfire!" the voice in her head said louder this time.
Star no longer seemed to listen, as she sat in her dark corner on an unknown planet she had just come to. It was always darkness now. Cyborg's killer seemed to feed on darkness, Raven had always relied on darkness for parts of her power, Robin had his faults as well, but so did everyone. Star stood up, to try and fly to a happier planet, with a happier place for her, but when she tried, nothing happened. She tried to shoot a starbolt to propel herself far enough to maybe want to fly, but even a starbolt would not come. More tears came to her, but she wiped them away.
"Why has this happened. What did I do? Please, someone come to me, and tell me."
"STARFIRE!" the voice in her head yelled a final time.
This time, the voice got Star's attention. She looked around and asked who the voice was.
"Don't fear. Believe you do not fear what it is you do, and it will all go away," it said, slowly fading a sit said.
Star didn't quite understand, but she decided to try the voice's advice.
"I...have friends," she spoke slowly at first, "They like me, and who I am. I am good, and have many friends who are good too. Especially...Robin. He...loves me," she said and showed a smile, "And I love him."
Suddenly, Starfire was sitting next to Robin and Beast Boy. She was in a dark land, twisted with darkness, colored in red and black. Even here, in Raven's mind's dark-part, Star was happy, because she was with her friends.
"Starfire," Robin smiled, and hugged her.
She felt a tear drip from Robin's face and land on her shoulder. Beast Boy smiled at their affections. He stood, and looked ahead into the distance. A large, black orb could be seen far away.
"Raven is there," B.B. said, pointing at the far away object, "I know it."
Star and Robin stood as well.
"Get ready Freddy," Beast Boy said, "Because your reign of terror is about to end, once and for all."
