Chapter
6: Confessions
Raven stayed near Starfire the entire
night, monitoring her sleeping and keeping her mind clear of and
dream activity with her powers. (Raven refused to give Starfire
dreams of happy bunnys and magical places because she wouldnt be able
to take it). Robin was ordered by Cyborg to stay in his room and
sleep, but he just could'nt. Someone was after Starfire. He laid
awake in his bed until the early hours in the morning when he couldnt
keep his eyes open anymore.
The next day Starfire was back to
normal (well almost). She was basically her normal happy and cheerful
self again all because of one nights monitoring done by Raven.
"I
thank you Raven, for my recovery! You are a wonderous friend!"
Starfire said cheerfully hugging Raven in the living room the next
morning.
"No problem Starfire" Raven said struggling
for breath. Star noticed this releasing her arms and stepping back,
putting a hand to the back of her head.
All the Titans were
happy to see that starfire was alright and happy. Robin was very
quiet and stayed back most of the time only smiling at Star every now
and then. He pulled Raven aside.
"Did he visit" he
said seriously.
Raven knew perfectly well who he was talking
about.
"No.....I dont think so her mind was quiet last
night not a lot of intrudences" Raven said bitting her
lip.
"Not a lot?" Robin asked raiseing and
eyebrow.
"Are you saying she had some intrudences? What
were they Raven, tell me! He said angrily.
Raven blushed
"It
was just some normal...ahhh...dreams that kept popping into her head.
It wasnt him. Her dreams were...interesting but not dark. I wuld have
senced it." Raven said looking away.
"What were
they?" Robin asked loosing patience.
"Just dreams.
You don't really need to know. It is none of your buissiness anyway.
They were normal dreams that everyone has once in a while."
Raven said struggling to find words.
Robin glared at her and
walked away.
Meanwhile.......
"Star, glad to see
your alright today." Cyborg said at her hyperness.
"Yes
Cyborg I feel glorious! Thanks to Raven!" said Starfire, as she
pulled Raven over.
"It was nothing. Really." Raven
said distraught.
"Ummm Starfire? Can we talk?" Raven
asked nervously.
"Of coarse!" Starfire said pulling
Raven out into the hallway.
"Now, what was it that you
wanted to talk about!?" SAid Starfire her eyes twinkling.
Raven
looked embarrased.
"Well, I monitoring your dreams
right?" Raven asked. Starfire nodded
"Well... when
some of them started to occur in your mind, I had to...well look
through them, I guess you could say, and I noticed that a lot of them
had to do with.......Robin." Raven said with a crucked smile.
Starfire stared at her and started to blush.
"You really
like him don't you?" said Raven kind of embarrased that she was
asking this question. Starfire nodded her head shyly.
"Yes
i do" she said quietly.
"Ok Starfire. If we are
really going to be able to protect you from this Dracon guy, you
should really try to clear your mind of.... Robin, Starfire. You
see... Dracon is reading your mind. Everytime he enters it he gets
more information about you" Raven said trying to quickly get to
the point.
"He knows what you like and dislike and he
knows what your weaknesses and strengths are. He aslo knows how to
hurt you. If he knew that Robin was something you dreamed about and
that if you ever lost him you would feel at a loss and have a weak
mind, he could use that to his advantage." She said, her words
completely understood by the alien girl.
"Starfire, we
dont know why he wants you, and I can't protect you all the time.
Someday he probably will figure out your weekness and then he will
have you no other way. Raven said with warning.
"What do
you propose I do" Starfire said looking down and sadness in her
voice.
Raven noticed that Starfire was extremely sad that
Robin could be used against her if Dracon was smart enough to exploit
it. Raven couldn't tell Starfire to just stop talking and hanging out
with Robin. It would crush her, so she thought of the next and
possibly better solution.
"I could train you to keep him
out of your mind so you could protect yourself." Raven said
thoughtfully.
"REALLY!!" Starfire brightened
up.
"Yes. We can start with meditation. Meet me in my
room at about....hmmm....4:00 later today.
"Glorious, but
why cant we start now?" Starfire asked.
"I have to
go run some eerands for your 'training'" Raven said, with a bit
of mystery to her voice.
" O glorius! I shall be there at
the 4!" Starfire said with glee!
Raven was about to walk
away but turned back to the smiling Starfire.
"And dont
be late." Raven said with a smirk on her face.
Starfire
nodded and left the hallway, Raven went the opposite way towards the
exit. Starfire walked into the living room and sat on the couch with
Cyborg and Beastbor who were busy plaing a game of 'Warrior Ninjas 2'
. Everything was like it had been before except
"Wheres
Robin?" Starfire asked intruding there game.
The one
person she thought would be the happiest to see her, wasnt even
there.
"I think hes in his room" Beastboy spat out
not letting his eyes leave the screen.
Starfire got up and
went to speak to him.
'KNOCK' 'KNOCK'
The door echoed
in the quiet hallway as she knocked apon it.
"Robin I
wish to speak to" Starfire said with a smile.
No one
answered.
"Robin? Robin are you present?" She asked
more worried.
Finally the door slid open.
"Yes"
He asked kind of annoyed.
Starfire was a bit taken back by his
lack of enthusiasm, but continued.
"I am ready to tell
you about what has been happening to me latley" She said trying
to hold a smile to her face.
Robin did not smile he only
looked at her and said
"Look I am kind of busy right now.
Do we have to talk now?" He asked
Starfire grabbed her
arm and looked at the ground. Her smile was gone.
"I
suppose not." she said sadly.
"Perhaps, when you are
finished then" SHe added eagerly.
"Maybe" Robin
said putting his hand to his chin. He noticed Starfire was sad and he
hated that she was sad.
"Look, Starfire its not that I
dont care, but I have to find out what Dracon wants with you. I am
trying to save you" He added trying to comfort her.
"O.
I understand Robin." Starfire said putting on a fake smile and
backing away from the door.
Robin smiled back and slid his
door shut.
"But I already know what he wants from me"
Starfire mummbled so know one could here her. She sighed and walked
up towards the roof.
SHe stood there thinking for a while
about Robin and other little things in her life. She felt something
that made her shiver but shrugged it off.
"Perhaps I am
just cold" she said aloud trying to comfort herself.
SHe
looked at the far clock tower. It read 3:52.
"I must be
getting back to meet Raven for my 'training'" Starfire said and
turned towards the door.
"O your not going anywhere"
said a deep familiar voice.
Starfire turned in terror only to
find the one person she dreaded, Dracon floating there. Her head
began to hurt the familiar hurt it had from the other
night.
"Noo.Please!" SHe said falling to her knees,
klutching her head, her eyes glowing vibrant green.
"This
time no one can save you you are mine" he said evilly
chuckling.
"Nooo. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!" SHe cried
now tears falling from her eyes.
He drew closer to her about
to pull her in like he had waited for so long.
"With you,
my pretty, I will be able to rule this pathetic world and more to
come!" He said looking down at her helpless shaking body.
Then
he laughed his evil laugh and Starfire fell
unconsious.
What
is going to become of Starfire? Will the others be able to save her.
Stay tuned! Please R&R
