Hey everyone! I am sick today with a cold so I am home from school, so I decided to work on this!
Disclaimer: If I owned the Teen Titans, I would have so much power that I could just zap my cold away. So no, I DON'T.
Beastboy walked through the back. He saw a Raven at the alter and fingered her to come. She mouthed to him a 'no.' But he continued. A few heads turned around to see what Raven was staring at so she decided to come before there was a big fuss.
"What?" Raven asked angrily.
"Dude, Raven. When I got here Blackfire was in the drive way!"
"Beastboy, enough with the pranks. Blackfire is in jail!"
"No, there were like, guards with her!"
"Seriously?"
"Yes! Why would the guards let her come here and try and sabotage it?"
"Well... maybe that's not it. But why would she be here?" Raven asked.
"Let's think..."
It was happening, really happening.
Starfire looked at Fireon, though he was unnoticing. Then she looked at Robin, he stared at her, with his mask. Though she could not see his eyes, she could feel his soul crying out to her to not go through with it, to not marry Fireon, and something else she could not define.
She wondered what his eyes looked like underneath the black and white fabric that defined him from everyone else. She wondered why no one had ever seen his eyes. Was he blind? Did he have two toned eyes? Were they an embarrassing color like pink? Who knows, but Starfire knew she would never know.
"...Do you take Fireon to be your husband?" Starfire was snapped back to reality so quick she almost forgot her surroundings and what to say.
"...oh...yes..."
Starfire glanced beyond all the chairs and people to see a tall figure with blackish purple hair. She was in black and white stripes and two men had each of her arms.
Suddenly everyone froze. Why was the bride staring back? What was going on?
Fireon shook Starfire by the shoulder, "Starfire."
She ignored him, "Sister?" She called out.
Blackfire stepped out of the shadows, "Yes, Starfire. It is I, Blackfire. Here to claim what is mine."
"What are you talking about?" Fireon yelled at her.
The guards let go of Blackfire's arms and she approached the alter.
"I knew you would do this. You could never keep your hands off of her," Blackfire said as she put her hand on Fireon's shoulder.
"...Uh... Blackfire... what ever are you talking about?" Fireon said as he glanced nervously from her to Starfire to Robin to Cyborg and back to her again.
"You know exactly what I am talking about!" Blackfire yelled.
"What is going on," Starfire asked, though ignored.
"You were wrong! I told you when you turned fourteen!" Fireon yelled.
"You also told me you would marry me when I turned seventeen! So here I am sixteen and about three months from my birthday and you are running off with my sister!" Blackfire protested.
Starfire covered her mouth in shock.
"It can't be proven!" Fireon said.
Blackfire reached in her pocket and pulled out a paper, and in a rather quiet voice she replied, "Yes it can."
Fireon snatched the paper as he read it aloud, "This is what your father's will says: I do hereby state, that my daughter, Blackfire, is betrothed to Fireon of Tamaran. I state that my youngest daughter, Starfire, is to be wed to who ever she decides, for she has shown gratefulness and responsibility."
Fireon's face went blank, "But I had it changed..."
"And my father made a secret will on his deathbed, which is the most accurate one," Blackfire protested.
One guard took Blackfire and the other took Fireon. Fireon fought to get away, "Stop!" He shouted.
He looked at Starfire, "Don't you see Starfire? I have always loved you. You have been kind and grateful, just as your father states it in his will. You can marry whoever you want to, including me. We can still get married, this doesn't have to go to waste. Remember what good friends we were?"
Robin bit his lower lip in anxiousness.
Starfire stood for a second, staring at Fireon's eyes. The eyes she could see. The eyes she could see for the rest of her life. With no mystery. She suddenly ran to him and held him in a hug. Robin bit his lip so hard it bled.
Starfire whispered in Fireon's ear, "Goodbye."
She let go and the guards took him away. Starfire stared at him as they took him away.
She looked at the ceremony of people who had came to see her wedding, she decided to give a speech, "Well, I am sorry for this. But you all saw what happened, I did not want to give up mine and Fireon's life just because I did not love him. That is why I decided I would go through with it. But it seems fate has turned, and I shall be happy. Please pick up your gifts and go back home, but you may be coming back in a couple of years when I am ready to be married again."
People grabbed their gifts and purses and walked out. Starfire waved goodbye. Then she turned to her friends, "Shall we be going?"
The weary titans stepped out of the spaceship to their tower, home. Cyborg stretched, "Well, I'm hittin' the sack."
Beastboy yawned, "Me too."
Raven looked and noticed how weird it would be if she were to be hanging around Robin and Starfire after all that had happened so she just quietly entered the room.
StarryRavenFire: Thanks! Yep the wedding is stopped... but what will happen now?? BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Mew-Xena: Oh, thanks! You are a new reviewer to the story. But you matter all the same.

Broken-Mask: Yes, I have been known for my cheezyness. But hey, I'm a girl, what do you expect? Hope you keep Fireon even after this chappy. Lol.
Thanks everyone. And sorry for the slow chapters. Like I've said before, school is really getting in the way.
