Chapter 6
Over the next few days, things started to settle down for Persia. She got to hang with the titans more, of course kick some bad guy butt, and she didn't have any flashbacks since the other day in the gym. Little did persia know that today was the day of her party. Whichever titan was with Persia and keeping her busy, the others would plan, set up, and get ready for the party.
Later in the day, Persia walked into the kitchen and was about to grab her apron and put it on where a voice out of nowhere startled her. "Persia, there you are!" Persia saw that it was only Starfire. "Oh, hey Starfire, waz up?" Starfire saw Persia holding the apron in her hand, then snatched it away from her. "How can you cook if there is no food?" Persia looked at the fridge. "We ran out of food already? But I saw a full fridge this morning. Dang, everyone must have been hungry!" Persia was saying this while walking to the fridge. Starfire panicked and quickly said "Persia look! It's, a storm!!!" "Wha?" Persia turned around to see what Starfire was worked up about, and while she did, Star quickly took out all the food from the fridge and hid it somewhere. When Persia turned back to face the fridge, she saw Starfire standing there whistling off key. Persia tilted her head to the side a little and cocked a brow. "Um, ok then." Persia walked over to the fridge, opened the door, and saw nothing. "Wow, I guess you were right Star, there is no food!" "Right, which is why we must go get some more! Come!" Starfire practilly dragged Persia out of the tower into the city.
Persia and Starfire flew along the streets of the city, heading to the grocery store. On their way, they talked a little "So persia, weren't these last few days enjoyable?" "Yea, I really had fun with you guys, really took a load off my mind" "I am glad." They smiled at eachother, then after flying a few more yards, Persia stopped dead in her tracks in front of an alley. A few moments after Persia stopped, Starfire noticed and flew back to Persia. "Why did you stop Persia? The store is not here is it?" Persia just looked in the alley, and said "This is my alley....." "your alley?" "Yea, this was the alley where I was crashing until you guys took me in, remember?" "Oh yes, now I remember." Persia sighed.
"What a strange and bizzare planet, yet, it makes you wonder....." Persia noted. She was right now in the Milky Way galaxy, hundreds and hundreds of miles away from the blue, green and whitish looking planet. "Well, any planet would be better then Zaragon, or whats left of it anyways." Persia flew closer and closer to the planet her gaze never left. Suddenly when she got real close, she felt a huge blow hit her back. Then she felt it again. The Earth's gravitational force was sucking her in. Persia tried to resist, but it was no use. The gravity was practilly pulling persia in faster then a comet. Infact, she was flying as fast as a comet! Soon she neared a city with alot of buildings. Persia crossed her arms, closed her eyes, and prepared for the impact.
Closer and closer she came, till she was so close to the ground, she could almost eat off it. "OOF!" Persia hit the ground so hard, and was skidding for miles, getting all dirty, and getting deep cuts and bruises all over her. Finally persia stopped and layed motionless in a real dark, damp and dirty alley, unconcious. Blood was practilly surrounding her body, making small puddles of blood on the ground.
A while later Persia woke up in the same alley she was in. She put her hand down to help herself stand up, but it felt warm and sticky. It was her dried up blood. "Wonderful, just great!" Persia slowly got up, and looked in her pack, being careful not to stain anything. She found her first aid pack and wiped off some of the blood and patching herself up for the next hour. When she was done, she was deep in thought of what to do next. 'Hmm, I could try to find a place to stay for awhile. But i don't know anywhere to stay. I could find a place to rent...shoot, that would cost though! Who knows what you have to pay here on this planet. Man am I stumped!' Then Persia said to herself "I guess this is going to be my new home then, better unpack. Bleh!"
"Man I was trashed that day! I thought all hope was lost. Nobody I knew to seek for help, no decent place to shelter me, not enough food to live on, no nothing." Starfire looked sympatheticlly at Persia. "I'm really sorry you had to go through all that." "But then Persia looked at Star "It's ok, I got through it. Besides, I think getting my planet destroyed and coming here to Earth is the best think that ever happened to me." Persia smiled again, reasurring Starfire to smile back. They hugged eachother, then flew the rest of the way to the store.
