This is one really long Author's Note

I would like to thank everyone who reviewed my first three chapters. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

There are a few thinks I would like to address. There was a mention of Terra being portrayed as a bitch. In the comics, she was one. The creators even said that Terra was made to be "a sixteen year old sociopath." In the comics, Marv Wolfman

"…speculated that Terra was going to reform at the last minute and turn on the Terminator. Of course we had that in there, too, but for a totally different reason. The cover was created specifically to let you wonder which side she was going to take, not realizing that she was going against both."

The fact is, as the story states, she has no reason for being what she became.

"What we didn't want to do is state that because she was this or because she was that, she was evil," Wolfman says. "There are people who are just not nice. They could be brought up in the best situations or whatever, it won't make a difference…There was absolutely nothing in Terra's background that should have made her the type of character she was."

These are taken from the web site. Go see for yourself.

In my story, I am still uncertain as to whether I am going to have her see the error of her ways or still not regret her evil deeds. All I do know right now it that Terra will be made to pay in some way for her crimes.

Another point was in reference to Kori and her personality. I made Kori darker in my story. The only reason I can give for that is because I wanted to. From the comics and the show, Starfire is bright and cheerful, very friendly, the forever optimist. I didn't want that for my story, well at least not to such a strong degree. This takes place when they are older, more has happened and no body can keep the innocence of youth forever. Especially not after what I am going to do to them.

Having said all that, I believe Starfire is strong, a warrior, trained in fighting. She knows how to do it and do it well. However, she uses it as a last resort. If a person proves to be evil, she will not hesitate to stop them.

I am going to give a small outline of the rest of the story, mainly because it might be some time before I get the actual story up. I am still wringing, re-writing, and tweeking it. I am almost never satisfied with my work. Maybe I am a perfectionist, and it is not always a bad thing, but it does get annoying when I keep re-writing something. In fact, I have re-written and re-posted the first two chapters twice, and the third chapter once. It annoys even me sometimes. Anyway, here is a short, small, rough out-line.

I Logan, Raven, and Victor are brought to the manor by Richard.

A We learn a telling piece of information about Raven.

II Kori, Victor, and Logan explain about some of what happened all those years ago. The plan to stop Slade.

III Raven and Kori go shopping for clothes. They get to know each other a little more. Some of Raven's past is revealed and so is some more of Kori's. Things even Richard doesn't know

IV Barbara confronts Richard about Kori. She asks him what his relationship with Kori is.

V Roy Harper comes into the picture.

A Learns he has a small history with Kori. (Richard does not like that!!)

B Logan accidentally lets slip some touchy information about Kori to Richard. (Uh-oh!)

VI They are contacted by Terra. Her intentions are made clear

VII Richard tells Kori why he left, BIG CONFRONTATION!!! Between Richard and Kori. More is revealed about Logan's slip up.A Richard and Kori clear the air. Will their relationship go to the next level???VIII A fancy soirée is held and a mystery person from the past is seen?? Maybe??

ARichard and Kori's relationship grows. Promises, etc., etc., etc.,.

IX Barbara confronts Kori

A Funny little scene between Richard and Roy, no reason other than I really want to say this cool line. I LOVE THE LINE.

BA new dimension to Richard and Kori's relationship. Cute, touching, fluffy scene.

X Confrontation with Terra.

A More of the plan to stop Slade from years ago.

XI Slade makes himself known.

There is my rough outline. I honestly don't know how many chapters that I will have. It all depends on how I eventually edit.

I would like to specifically thank Sakura for her comments, which I hopefully addressed. Thank you everyone for reviewing, and hopefully this will help hold everyone over until I get chapter four up.

Eternally yours
