The tragedy
It was a beautiful day in Jump City. The sky was the prettiest shade of blue ever. In Titans Tower, the girls where all very busy.
Nakida was busy cooking breakfast. Starfire was setting the table. Sonia was vacuuming and Raven was meditating.
"Oh what a splendid day this is turning out to be! I hope the guys like breakfast. Let me see, I made French toast, rainbow melon balls, orange juice, and blueberry muffins! Star, is the table ready?" asked Nakida
"Yes friend it is ready! Shall I go wake the boys? We would want them to miss this joyous meal of friendship and bliss!! "Said the elated Starfire as she jumped for joy.
"No Star, I really don't think that such a good idea. Let the boys wake up on his own so BB doesn't wine about his beauty sleep. Besides it 7:30 already he and the others should be up any minute." Said Sonia with a laugh.
The girls all laughed even Raven chuckled a bit. She then closed her eyes and said "Azrath Metrion Zenthos" and all the boys' alarm clocks went off. They all hurried down for breakfast and they all complemented that it was great. Then they confirm that they would all go to the planetarium for the star show that night. But the girls would be spending the day having fun.
"The boys stay and clean the T and the girls have fun and we meet them for lunch at the pizzeria. Then we go to the movies and have dinner and then go to the star show. All right girls lets go we don't want to be late! "Said a frantic Sonia.
"Take a chill pill girl! Keep your emotions in check!" snapped sharply Raven
The girls got up and turned to leave when Robin stopped them and said "Wait we have something for you girls." He reached into his pocket and pulled out a velvet red heart shape box. He popped it open and inside was a beautiful gold ring. It had two hearts intertwine and said "True love is more precious then gold." He slipped it on to Starfire's finger and then removed his right glove to show an exact duplicate.
"Its a promises ring. It means we promise to love each other for all eternity. It's been in my family for about 150 years. Promise me you will always wear it, Starfire. This ring is the symbol of our feeling for each other. Please. Wear it forever." He said
She stared at her finger and looked into the white circles that hid her true love eyes and said with passion "I shall wear it forever, Robin." As she leaned in an kissed him.
Raven stared at this with a little jealousy in her eyes. She envied anyone who could freely express themselves. Beast boy determine to turn that frown upside down said "Here Raven I got this for you." He produces a box and inside was a gold bracelet with two hearts intertwines. She glared at him and said, "You got me a bracelet. After what happen the last time you bought me one?"
He laughed and said, "I promise this one won't
make your emotions run amuck like the one I gave you for Valentine's Day did."
"Here Nakida, I got you this locket and like Rob and BB it gold with two hearts intertwined meaning everlasting love." Said Cy shyly. He placed it on her neck and watched it glitter in the morning sunlight.
"Thank you all we must be going now. See you later!" said Sonia as she shoo out.
The girls went to the park and then the music store. They each got a new CD and got to make a free music DVD! They where on their way to meet the boys when Starfire stopped outside the pet store to look at the puppies.
Not one of the girls noticed a hang glider swoop down and land across form them. They didn't know what was going to happen.
Lady Panther quickly readied the gun. She had a perfect shot. But she waited. She knew this would be more devastating to the boys if they saw it with their own eyes. She didn't have to wait long. The boys where two blocks away. The girls didn't notice them till they were half a block away. They turned and ran and she fired. There was an explosion that rocked the whole area and flashes of green, black, and blue light went off. The boys ran calling the girls names as they tried to see through the smoke.
After a few minuets the smoke and dust cleared and they were gone!!!! There was nothing nada zero zip! No trace of them.
Robin and the others got on their knees and looked at the spot in disbelief and then with tears in their eyes they cried the names of their loved ones to the Heavens "STARFIRE! RAVEN! NAKIDA! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Meanwhile the girls where lying on the ground and where in for the shock of their lives.
