Chapter three
Red X is in the middle of robbing a jewelry store. He's just throwing the jewels and necklaces he doesn't want. He's looking for a certain one-of-a-kind jewel called Le Bijou de l'amour, (means the jewel of love in French. I'm trying to put some francais in my stories, after all French is the language of love. Okay, honestly I went to to get the jewel of ever more control and the jewel of love translated cuz Madame Klein hasn't taught us this kind of stuff) so that he can give it to Starfire to proclaim his undying love to her. "Shoot! Where it? It's supposed to be in this Jewelry store!" Red x said out loud "Whatever you're looking for, you ain't gonna get." A voice by the entrance way. It was Cyborg, and all the other titans, but Starfire (Duh!) and Robin. "Where's Robin? Too chicken to try and stop me. Not that he could. He's already proven that. In fact I doubt that any of you kiddies could defeat a mastermind like me." Red X said tauntingly. That tripped Cyborg's last circuit. (Not literally) "You're going down!" He screamed at Red x "Titans GO" Red X throw three X's at the titans, they all dodged them going in different directions. First Beastboy turned into an ape, and charged at X. "Too slow" Red x said as he throw an X at Beastboy, who got thrown against the wall. "Your gonna pay for hurting my friend" (wow. I tend to surprise myself at times) "Azerath Metreon Zinthos" she chanted (can't spell her spell right) Red x was fast, and grabbed a broken piece of mirror, to shield himself. The spell bounced off the mirror, causing it to get thrown back at raven. She was knocked out. Then Red X got hit in the back with Cyborg's sonic cannon, causing him fumble and drop the mirror. Cyborg then grabbed X by the collar and lifted him up. "You let Starfire go, now. Or I'll be forced to hurt you really badly" Cyborg gritted through his teeth. "No. She belongs to me now, and there's nothing you can do to change that" Red X said, as he kicked Cyborg back. He walked up to him and shut him down. "NOT AGAIN!" Cyborg stated angrily. Red X walked back to the counter, and began searching for the jewel again. "Here it is." He said aloud as he picked up a pinkish heart shaped jewel that was on a 24kt gold chain. "Perfect she'll love it" Red x said "Well, let's see. What should I do about the titans? I know" Red X then grabbed a sphere out of his pocket, and throw it in the air. Then he disappeared. Slowly this powdery substance came out of it. At that moment Robin ran in, (Late, might I add) and saw the substance. "Stun powder!!" Robin yelled, and used his cape to cover his nose and mouth, so he can help the other titans.
-Red X's Lair-
Starfire has her head down as she is leaning against the wall in the room red x had her in. Her eyes are tear-stained from all the crying she has done. "What's the matter cutie?" Red X asked her. "Just leave me alone" she said quietly. Red X walked closer to her. Then he lifted her chin, and said "Now is that any way to treat me after all the trouble I went through to get this for you?" He took the necklace out of his pocket, and held it out in front of her face. Starfire's eyes got wide. 'It's beautiful.' She thought but then she mentally hit herself. 'It is stolen...but so pretty...but it's not mine.... Robin never got me anything' she was having a mental battle with herself. Red X could see this, so he put the necklace on her. "Well? Do you like it?" he asked her mischievously. "It is wondrous, but it was stolen" she answered eyeing him "Your point? I got it for you, you should appreciate it a little more." Then he touched the gem. "I can see the only thing Robin ever gave you was a couple doors slammed in your face, and that bruise on your arm" Starfire said nothing, knowing he was somewhat right. "Robin is my friend." she said barely above a whisper. "Some friend he is. Well why don't you sleep on it tonight, and we'll talk more in the morning." He then kissed her, but this time she didn't seem to object. Red X was half surprised, but was mostly happy. "I knew you would love Me." then he gave her another kiss. She just sat there in shock. ' He doesn't love me. Robin doesn't care.' She couldn't get that off her mind.
