Chapter 10: Fate Denied

Robin watched in shock as Starfire was being encircled by the dark light. She seemed so careless of what was about to happen. Robin took his eyes off her, and stared at Dracon. His face was also looking up at Starfire. He had a grin on his face as he watched his dream come to reality. The Earth was going to be destroyed. Robin glared at him for a long time until he noticed a difference in Dracons facial expression. His eyes became wide and his mouth opned in disbelief as he looked up. Robin looked back up to Starfire to see what had happened. A different black energy was surrounding her, and one thought came to Robins mind. Raven.

"What is this!" Dracon said outraged.

Raven emerged from the trees and into the air. Her eyes were glowing white, under her hood and she kept her concentration on confining Starfire. She was no longer under the control of Trigon. Next a green dinosaur came out of the woods with a half robot half man on his back.

"Beastboy! Cyborg!" Over Here!" Robin waved them over and Beastboy ran to him.

Cyborg jumbed off Beastboys back and BB transformed human.

"Raven thinks she knows how to stop Starfire." Beastboy said loudly as a storm of winds grew loud.

Cyborg continued.

"She thinks that if she can confine Starfire long enough for the eclipse to pass we can save Earth and Starfire."

Robin looked at both of them seriously.

"Lets hope she is right" Robin said

The eclipse was almost to its center point. Time was running out, Dracon noticed. He looked at Starfire being confined by Raven and controlled Starfires movements then on with the gems inplanted on their foreheads. STarfire began to strougle against Ravens rath and eventually shot her eyebeams at Raven. Ravens powers let go of STarfire and she fell fell from the air.

"Thats a girl...now go!" Dracon said alloud.

Starfire flew back into position of the eclipse and once again a dark energy was circling her.

"If Raven cant do it, its up to me!" Beastboy said and transformed into a teradactyl . He flew up into the sky and grabbed Starfire by her arms. He flew her to the ground where Cyborg restrained her to the ground.

"You think thats going to stop her" Dracon said looking at them from his distance.

Starfire quickly kicked Cyborg off her and then punched him hard into a tree. Robin wasnt participating he knew that he couldnt hurt Starfire. He stood in one place while the other Titans battled feverishly against their friend. Robin looked over to where Raven had fallen. She was standing up making hand gestures, but her words could be heard crystal clear.

"Azerath, Metrion, Zinthos!"

Black energy left her hand and impaled itself apon Dracon. SHe was squeezing him tightly with a black hand.

"Let my friend go" She said steadily, walking towards him.

"Never." He said struggling against her power.

"Then I will destroy you!" Ravens voice raged and she squeezed tighter.

"I wouldn't- ah- do that- i- if I was ...you" Dracon said struggling even more with the pressure on his body.

He looked up at the sky the eclipse had passed. Dracon had a frown on his face but then it turned into a smile. All the titans had their eyes on him not paying attention to the seemingly quiet and untrouble some Starfire.

"Nevermind.... d-destroy m..me." He said smirking.

Robin had a bad feeling. He stared at Dracon. Raven grasped him tighter. Then Robin heard a quiet noise behind him, he turned. Starfire was still floating in the air but also looked like she was being squeezed by Ravens powers. Her arms and legs were being pressed together tightly and it looked like she had a hard time breathing. She was moving a little bit in a struggle to get free of this invisible force.

The Robin realized...
When Dracon had talked to him on the screen at Titans tower, he said something about...
"Everything that happens to him has an exact effect on STarfire" Robin mumbled under his breath.

"Beacause of the gems!" Robin said a little louder.

Raven was holding Dracon tighter. It was only an amount of time that he would die because of of loss of air.

"Raven stop! Your killing Starfire!" Robin yelled over to her.

Raven lost her focus and her eyes went deep blue again, ahe looked over at Robin shocked and surprised. Dracon was released from her power and he and Starfire both fell to the ground. All the Titans gathered around Starfire.
Raven looked extremely dissapointed in herself, like she should have known better. Dracon stood up from where he fell.

"That was very wise of you Robin for stopping your friend from nearly destroying Starfire and I." Dracon said smiling evilly.

"Its to bad Starfires fate and the fate of this world have been denied" he said slowly walking towards the Titans.

Starfire still lay on the ground her eyes closed.

"Unfortunantly for you..some of my plans can come to reality." he said and with that Starfire jumped up, eyes glowing green.

She shot Starbolts at all the Titans to back them away from her, then she charged at the one closest to her. Robin.
