Robin's P.O.V.
I woke up early that morning expecting to see my room, but surprisingly I didn't. I then remembered that I was in a space pod with Star on our way to Tamaran. I realized that I didn't leave a note to the titans and I took out my communicator. "Guys, this is Robin come in," I whispered not wanting to wake Star up. "Dude, where have you been? And Star is gone. Do you know anything," Cyborg asked his voice booming. I was about ready to tell him to shut up so he wouldn't wake Star, but to late. "Robin, who are you talking cough to," Star asked beginning a coughing fit. "I see, having a little fun," BB said. "Star, go back to sleep," she nodded in reply and instantly went back to sleep. "It's not like that guys. Star is sick and we are going to Tamaran. She was originally going by herself, but I came to ensure her safety," I said whispering. "And to..." BB started. "Robin, just get home ASAP. I don't know how long I can last without throwing BB into a wall," Raven said. I nodded and hung up.
I looked down to Starfire. She was so peaceful and she wasn't being plagued with bad dreams. I still couldn't believe it. She dreamed that she killed me, worked for Slade, and married Red X? How can that be? Does she want that to happen? I began to stroke her hair. "Star," I whispered mainly to myself. "Hmm," she asked. I jumped a little not expecting a response. "How're you feeling," I asked. She erupted into a cough of fits. "Not great Robin. Not great at all," she answered me after she caught her breath. I smiled softly towards her. "I guess you want to sleep," I said trying to act as normal as I could. Truth is I couldn't. Not when I'm alone with Star. I was a whole different person than when I'm with the team. "No Robin, I do not wish to sleep, but there is not much we can do. We have about another days wait until we reach the farthest part of Tamaran," Star said. "Well, what is there to do," I asked letting my curious side venture take control.
"Well, we can..." Star started but erupted into a fit of coughs. I looked worried when she didn't stop a minute or so after. "Star, what's wrong," I asked not knowing what to say. She stopped coughing and caught her breath, but she instantly began to cry. "Star," I asked as I placed a hand on her shoulder. "Star what's wrong," I asked getting really worried. "I need to get home couch," she said and got up. She placed her hands on her head and held it as to stop it from spinning. I stood up but she started to walk to the pilots seat. I walked closely behind her. She sat down and increased the speed of the ship. I couldn't tell how fast we were going, but I knew we were going faster cause I feel to the ground. "Star? How fast are we going," I asked. "We will be on Tamaran in a few minutes," she said and fell out of the seat.
"Star," I yelled and got up and ran over to her. "Robin," She said weakly and smiled. "Star," I said caringly. "You've said my name to many times friend Robin. Do not worry about me," she said her eyes were losing the usual sparkle that they held. "Hold on Star. Don't leave me," I said. "Do not fear Robin. I am not going anywhere," she said and giggled a bit, but coughed. "Never mind Star. But how long until we get to Tamaran," I asked. "Only a matter of minutes, but you're outfit is unfit for the king and queen. Go into the back room and find a tux and cape. Put it on and put the crown on. You will then be none as the Prince of Earth," she said and coughed. I nodded not wanting to make her upset. I did as she instructed. I walked out only minutes later and I looked at myself. "I look like I belong on the top of a wedding cake," I said. I chuckled and she giggled.
'We are now approaching Tamaran. Please find your seats and buckle up' the pod said. Starfire stood up and sat down and I sat next to her. "So I am a prince now," I asked. "Indeed. If you are to help me or touch me you have to be of a royal family," she stated. I nodded and the pod began to shake. Seconds later the pod door opened and we walked out. "Star. Where do we go," I asked. "To the castle up there," she said and pointed. My mouth fell open and I picked her up. She squealed but rested her head on my shoulder. "Thank you dear friend Robin," she said. I sighed happily. I walked through the village and it was abandoned. "Star, where is everybody," I asked. "It is a national holiday of respect. No one is to be outside of their house until dusk. Oh and we are not to use 'our' names. My name is Koriand'r and what is your formal name," She explained. I looked away. No one knew my real name. "Robin," she asked. "Just call me Richard," I said hoping that would be enough. She smiled and nuzzled her head into the crook of my neck.
We arrived at the castle and I set her down. "What now," I asked. She gulped and walked into the castle. "I followed her. "Prince Richard, if anyone asks what you are doing here you reply that you are simply escorting me," Koriand'r whispered to me as we approached the throne room. "State your name and business with the King Moriand'r and Queen Coriand'r," said one of the guards. "I am Princess Koriand'r daughter of King Moriand'r and Queen Coriand'r and this is Prince Richard of Earth. I am hear to speak to my mother of reasons that do not concern you," she said trying to sound professional. "You may enter your highnesses," the guard said and bowed. She curtsied and I bowed. We walked into the throne room...
Starfire's P.O.V.
As I walked down the red-carpeted path to the King and Queen I became dizzy. I grabbed Richard's hand and he looked at me. I gave him a weary look and he nodded. As we got to the thrones I curtsied and Richard bowed. "State your business," Moriand'r said not looking at who was there. "It is I father. Koriand'r," I said. Moriand'r looked up. "Kori? Is that you," Moriand'r asked. "Yes father. It is I," I said and walked up and hugged him. "Oh Kori, I am so happy to see you," Coriand'r said. "Mother," I said and hugged her. My father cleared his throat. "Kori, who is this," he asked. I looked at Richard. "Oh, father, this is Prince Richard of Earth," I answered going back to where Richard was standing. "Kori, is this who you have chosen to marry," Coriand'r asked. I blushed furiously. "You know Kori, he does look like he would make a suitable King," Moriand'r said. "He-"I started. "He looks your type," Coriand'r said. "But he-"I started again. I started to blush and I looked over to my friend who was blushing as well. "Oh, dear tell everyone about the wedding," my mother said. "MOTHER," I yelled. The room quieted down. "He is not who I am marrying. I came to Tamaran to ask you a question that could be life threatening," I said.
Robin looked at me. "Life threatening," he asked trying not to make a sound. I nodded. "Koriand'r, is everything okay," mother asked me. "I am unsure. I am 'sick' as we would put it," I said. My mother flew over to me from her chair and put her hand on my forehead. "Come with me. Prince Richard I will send a guard to show you to your quarters," Coriand'r said. "Wait mother, why can't Richard come with us," I asked not wanting Robin to leave me. "Kori, no. Just come with me," mother said. "Richard," I said trying to reach out to him. My mother dragged me out of the throne room and we walked to the hospital. I was placed in an examination room...
Robin's P.O.V.
I watched as Star was dragged away by her mother. "Boy, come here," I heard the king whisper. I walked up to him. "Yes," I asked trying to seem proper. "You like my daughter do you not," he asked. I blushed and didn't know what to say. I merely nodded. "I thought so, well listen here. Not one of my daughters is going to marry earthling scum like you whether r not you are a prince," Moriand'r hissed. "Why not? Isn't it HER choice your highness," I asked wanting to punch this son of a bitch. "Indeed it is her choice, but she has already chosen who she is going to marry," Moriand'r said. "If she had, she would have told me," I said trying to make myself believe that she wasn't betrothed. "Oh but she has. She is to marry the prince of Glorthon 5, Prince Graydor," Moriand'r said. I shook my head unbelievingly. This couldn't be true. Starfire, his Starfire was getting married. "You are lying," I said forgetting that I was talking to the King. "Bite your tongue boy! Now if you know what's good for you get off of this planet and go to your own. Leave my daughter in peace," He said. "Just a second ago you said I was fitting and would make a great king. Why the change in attitude," I asked. "I only said that because of my daughter's presence. NOW LEAVE," He shouted. "NO! NOT WITHOUT STARFIRE," I yelled. "Starfire? Who is this Starfire," he asked. "You're daughter! That's her real name," I said and began to march out. "GUARDS! Put him in a pod and send him back to Earth," The king said and the guards grabbed me.
"Let me go," I yelled trying to get free. "No earth scum, you are lucky I haven't guillotined your head," the King said and I was shoved into a pod rocket....
Starfire's P.O.V.
"Lay down," my mother said. I laid down on the bed and I waited for a doctor. I was scared. I had wanted Robin with me, but my mom said otherwise. I wish he was here holding my hand telling me everything was going to be alright. "Okay Princess, I am going to put you to put you to sleep and examine you," the doctor said and then I blacked out...
..........Dream..........
"How could you Star? How could you," I heard Robin yell at me in anger. Why was he yelling? "How could I what," I asked innocently. "Don't play dumb with me you bitch! You killed them," Robin yelled. I was shocked. Never have I heard Robin say such horrid things. "How could you say that to me," I asked still clueless to the matter at which we were talking about. "How could you? You killed everyone! You killed the team," Robin shouted. I did? When did I do this? What was going on? "Robin, I do not..." I started, but I was interrupted. "Star just get the hell out of here before I hurt you," Robin threatened. "But Robin, I..." I started yet again. "Just shut your fucking mouth and get the hell out of here!" he yelled. My eyes well up with tears. "I do not know what I have done to upset you Robin, but I will respect your wishes and leave you," I said tears streaming down my face. "I HATE YOU ROBIN! I HATE YOU," I screamed and ran out of the tower leaving my things...
...........End dream..........
"Koriand'r, wake up," I heard a voice call. "Robin don't leave me," I said unaware of it. "Kori, who is this Robin you are talking about," I heard mother ask. I sat up now aware of what I had said. "Mother, I wish to speak with Richard please," I asked no caring about the results. "Oh sorry dear. Your father just came in and told me that he left not," mother said. "Richard did what," I asked surprised. Robin would never leave me. "He just up and left. He said that he didn't care if you were okay and he left in the pod rocket you came in," mother explained. I was shocked. "He-he just left me here," I asked to myself. "AND I TRUSTED HIM," I shouted. "Kori, do not shout," Coriand'r said. My eyes welled up with tears. "I can't believe it. He left me here," I repeated. "I am sorry dear, but yes," mother said. I let my barrier down and cried. "Kori, don't cry. There's some good news. The results are in and you are fine. You just had a cold," mother explained. At least my health is safe. "Please leave me alone," I cried and my mother nodded. She kissed me on the forehead and walked out of my room.
I laid on my bed hugging my pillow and crying. Why would he leave me? I wish I had my communicator with me. Then I could call and ask. "How could you Robin? How could you," I asked and then I had an idea. It was so clear. I would get my revenge...
Robin's P.O.V.
I landed on the bay of Titan's Island (I am just going to call it that) and I got out. What did her father have against Earth? I walked into the tower and into the main room. "Hey Rob, where's Star," asked Cy from the couch. "She's on Tamaran," I answered unemotionally. "Dude! Why did you leave her there? She is probably worried sick or so sad she'll die of dehydration," BB yelled. I guessed he was thinking worst-case scenario, but he might be right. "Do you think I wanted to leave her," I asked coldly. "Then why did you," Raven asked not looking up from her book. "I didn't mean to. The king said he would kill me if I ever came back and then he threw me into a pod rocket," I explained. "So now you can't even go back to get her can you," Cy asked. "No, and neither can anyone else. He thinks all earthlings are scum and I bet you he would kill you," I explained reliving what he said.
"So that means, Star either has to come back on her own, or we break in and get her out," Cy suggested. "We can't break in. The palace is to heavily guarded and you can't see anyone with out stating your name and business and if you sound suspicious they will probably throw you in jail," I said. "Dude, stop being so negative. "We can break her out," BB said. "NO! I won't risk losing any of you guys. I already lost my best friend," I shouted. I didn't want to lose any more of my teammates. They were all I had left and Star wasn't going to come back. Her father wouldn't let her, and when she gets married, her husband wouldn't let her. "We aren't going to risk anyone getting killed thanks to a worthless king," I said. Everyone knew that was it and the end of the subject. I stomped off to the training room to blow off some smoke.
Starfire's P.O.V.
"Mark my words I will bring him down. So sleep with one eye open Robin, cause you'll never know when I'll strike.
