Previously...
After they ate, Lightfire went with Cyborg to look over the defenses and Beast Boy was teaching Nightfire how to play videogames. Starfire and Robin got dish duty while Raven was on the roof to meditate. "Robin, are you comfortable with them staying here?" Starfire asked. Robin stopped what he was doing and looked at Starfire. "No."
Tamaran Twins
If only you knew...
"No?" Starfire asked Robin. "What do you mean 'no'?" Robin knew that she wouldn't like his answer, but he couldn't lie to her. "I mean that we know nothing about them, but they know everything about us. We don't know why they were separated, who separated them, and who injured them. We know NOTHING about them, Star." Starfire wanted to say something in their defense, but nothing could come out. Deep down in her heart she knew he was right, and that she could feel that something was wrong. "They need... time. If something terrible happened to you, would you want to tell someone about right after it happened?" Starfire finally thought of something to say. "No I wouldn't. I guess your right," Robin said as he began to wash the dishes again", and I guess I need time to get used to them also." Starfire smiled. She was happy Robin would give them a second chance. After the dishes were done, Starfire and Raven pulled Lightfire and Nightfire away for a while. " We finished fixing your clothes." Starfire said as she handed them their clothes. "Thanks, we didn't get much done last night." Lightfire said as she changed. When they finished changing, they went back into the lounge. "You guys don't dress like a Tamaranian, but you do have some Tamaranian features." Raven said. Nightfire wore normal jeans with a black and white tank top. She had arm sleeves with a green jewel on each hand and wore a long necklace with a matching green pendant. Lightfire had on a pair of khaki capris and a white spaghetti strap shirt over a dark blue tanktop. She also had a long necklace, but with a blue pendant. Lightfire slipped on her light brown gloves. The fingers had been cut out, and the gloves had blue jewels on hers. "We like to be remembered of our home planet." Nightfire said as she pointed to the jewels on her hand and on Starfire's hand. "Time to train, everyone!" Cyborg called out.
-Afternoon: Training time-
The titans were outside on the obstacle course. "Yes!" Beast Boy said happily. He wanted to train against the twins; he wanted to see what they could do. "Beast Boy, you'll train with... Starfire." Robin called out. "Actually..." Lightfire began ", can we go against Starfire?" Robin raised an eyebrow. "The both of you, against Starfire? Is that fair?" Nightfire walked into the middle of the course and called out "Lightfire and I fight as one. Remember that we were born as two halves of a whole." Robin looked back at Lightfire. "If it makes you feel better, you can fight with Starfire against us." Robin grinned. "Alright." Starfire flew to Nightfire. "Why do you wish to fight against me?" Ngithfire looked at Stafire. "I wanted to see what you could do now that you've transformed." A ball of swirling water appeared next to Nightfire. "Let's do this." Lightfire said as she and Robin stepped out of the swirling ball of water. "How did you do that?!" asked a shaken up Robin. Lightfire laughed. "We went through transformation also, but we don't know what all of our new powers are." Nightfire took a step back from Starfire as she said, "We know that one of our new powers is teleportation." Starfire and Robin backed away from the twins as they watched them go back to back. Lightfire and Nightfire got into fighting stance as their eyes began to glow green and blue. They grinned maliciously, making them seem more evil. "Time to fight." Nightfire and Lightfire said in unison as they dashed into Robin and Starfire.
Nightfire ran into Robin as Lightfire ran into Starfire. They hurdled them into the surrounding terrain. Nightfire grabbed Robin by the cape and threw him into the dirt. "Hhaaaahhh!!!" Nightfire encased Robin in a dirt cocoon as Lightfire blasted Starfire with her starbolts. Robin knew he couldn't escape without hurting himself. Encased in darkness, he grabbed his exploding disks and stuck them above him. He braced himself for the upcoming explosion. Nightfire was caught off guard as Robin escaped. Lightfire was hurdled into Nightfire as Starfire used her starbolts to blast them into the ground. Starfire flew down to Robin. "Are you alright?" she asked. "Yeah, I think so... LOOK OUT!" The twins flew above them and blasted them. Nightfire grabbed Robin and Lightfire grabbed Starfire. They flew apart from each other and shouted out "READY?!" They threw Robin and Starfire together. The two of them plummeted into the water below them. Lightfire froze the water around them. Nightfire flew towards the frozen waters, but was flung back by Starfire's eyebeams. "Ahaha!!! You've gotten so much better than we thought you would have!" Nightfire called out to Starfire as she flew up into the air next to Lightfire. Nightfire put her hands together and a ball of purple grew in between her hands. Nightfire put the ball of purple between her and Lightfire. Dirt formed around the ball, and then Lightfire put her hands around the ball. Water formed around the dirt. They screamed "DEADLY EARTH BOMB!" and sent it hurdling down towards Robin and Starfire. Water swirled around them. Robin tried to break through, but the water continued to surround them. The dirt went through the water and encased them in it. The water continued to swirl around their now statue-like bodies. The ball of purple seeped into their bodies. The swirling water then washed off the mud off of Robin and Starfire. Lightfire and Nightfire flew towards them as the others ran to them. "Dude! What did you do to them?!" Beast Boy said as he poked at them. "They're only paralyzed." Nightfire simply said as she and Lightfire carried their bodies inside.
-Midnight-
Robin couldn't sleep. He kept seeing Nightfire and Lightfire beat the crap out of them. He could remember everything perfectly, but every time he thought of it, he'd get a massive headache. "I remember that they carried us inside. I could see everything around me, but I couldn't hear anything." Robin thought again, making his headache worse. "I need some air." With that said, he went to the roof. As he opened the door, he could see someone already there. It was Nightfire. She floated in the air in front of the moon, taking in deep breaths. "Is she meditating?" Robin thought as he walked over to the edge. As soon as Robin stopped walking, Nightfire's body went limp and her body fell towards the ground. "Nightfire!!!" Robin jumped off and shot off two of his gadgets. One of them wrapped around Nightfire, but the other one didn't reach the roof. "No... we're gonna die!" Robin thought as he fell. He saw that they were about to hit the ground and closed his eyes. He then felt someone catch him and fly upwards. He opened his eyes again, and saw Nightfire.
"What the hell were you thinking?!" Nightfire yelled at Robin as she put him on the roof. "What the hell were YOU thinking?!" Robin yelled back. "I was meditating!!!" Nightfire crossed her arms as they argued. "Your body went limp and you fell towards the ground! I saved you!" Robin pointed to the now angry Nightfire. "NO! I SAVED YOU! I always do that when I meditate!!! It makes me feel better!" Nightfire shouted as she pointed to Robin. "Argh! What's with you anyhow?! First, you beat the crap out of me for touching Starfire, and then YOU guys beat the crap out of her during training!" Robin said as he walked towards the edge again. "She asked us to be her friends, not bodyguards. And besides, it's called training. It's supposed to make you stronger. How can we make Starfire stronger if we go easy on her?!" Robin turned around in defeat. "Wait!" Nightfire called out. Robin turned around and said," What now?!" Robin saw Nightfire walking towards him slowly. She looked like a dark shadow against the bright moon. She began to speak. "What do you live for?" Her body was a full shadow with only her green eyes showing. "What would you DIE for?" Robin walked backwards. "Can you tell me with a straight face, or without telling a lie? If you cannot, then your life is a joke. Your life is a lie. You should just die, but if you cannot answer those questions, you're still a child." Robin ran into the wall behind him. He watched Nightfire reach out, but then saw Lightfire teleport next to her. "I... I live to protect the people of the city. I'd die for them as well." Robin answered in fear.
"To put one's happiness before your own is to be a fool." Lightfire said. He saw the twins go blurry and form one body. She had Nightfire's hair, but Lightfire's hair color. When she spoke, her voice was of two people: Nightfire and Lightfire.
"Banished from my land, born incomplete. At 'His' right hand, I shall take my seat. That what was hidden, my Eternal Flame, that what was forbidden shall be my name.""Eternal Flame???" Robin asked. Eternal Flame walked towards Robin as she spoke. She stretched her arm out in front of Robin, just as Nightfire did before. Robin saw her hand move closer, closer, and closer to his face. "Sleep." He watched her hand touch his forehead- then he blacked out. Eternal Flame split back into Nightfire and Lightfire. "This was all a dream." Lightfire said as she crouched down before Robin. "Sis... she was out longer than before." Nightfire thought. "I know. This is bad."
-The Next morning-
"Aaagggghhhh!!!" Robin sat up in his bed, outstretching his arm. He had the strangest dream. Robin opened his eyes. He was sweating and was out of breath. He laid back down and wipe the sweat from his forehead. "Was it really a dream? ...Eternal Flame..."
ehehe... i love it when they pick on Robin.
Next chappie: We'll finally figure out who captured the twins.. and who this 'Eternal Flame' is.
