Starfire opened her eyes sleepily. She had been taking a nap and it was dark. A beeping tune sounded from her communicator. She picked it up and pressed the button.
"Starfire? There's trouble, get here now!" said Robin's voice.
"I shall be there presently." She said, yawning.
She got up quickly and flew to the door. Everything was dark. It looked like the power had been cut. She flew quickly to the living room.
"Robin? What is wrong?" she asked, but no one answered, "Robin? I am begging to become afraid. May I enquire as to your whereabouts?"
"SURPRISE!" shouted someone.
Starfire promptly punched them in the face. The lights switched on and she saw all the Titans standing there (except Beastboy who was curled up on the floor, trying to stop his nose from bleeding).
"Um...happy birthday?" said Raven, looking at Beastboy.
"A surprise party for me? I am extremely happy! This is so wonderful and I apologise to Beastboy for punching him in the nose!" shouted Starfire happily as music started blaring from the speakers.
"No problem." Said Beastboy through a blood covered tissue.
When Beastboy's nose had stopped bleeding and Starfire had stopped crying from happiness that she had a surprise party and sadness that she had almost broken Beastboy's nose, she began opening her presents.
"Thank you so much! This is a most wonderful gift! I shall wear it always!" as she opened a present containing a hat from Cyborg.
Robin shuffled forwards nervously and held out a present, looking at the floor. Starfire shredded the paper and opened the box. Inside was a picture frame made out of silver. It had small hearts in the corners and had a small banner carved onto it outlined with stars and curved, smooth writing in the centre which read 'Starfire'. In the frame was a picture of all the titans at the park.
"It's nothing big or anything, just a frame...y'know." Said Robin.
Starfire looked up, watery eyed, and hugged him.
"Not interrupting am I?" said a voice behind them.
They turned and gasped. Blackfire was standing in the door way.
"Blackfire?" asked Starfire, taking a step back.
She looked a lot thinner than the last time Starfire had seen her and a lot more desperate, almost pathetic.
Robin pulled Starfire back behind him.
"What are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be in jail?" he said.
"I've done my time and..." began Blackfire.
"'Done your time'? A year? Is that all you got?" asked Beastboy.
"A year...on Tameran it's been six...time difference...you know... Look I know I have no right to be here, but I had nowhere else to go and...I felt I owed to an apology..." she continued hopelessly, giving Starfire a pleading look.
"An apology? For almost getting Starfire put in jail? You own us much more than that!" said Raven sharply, "Unless we have some proof that you're trustworthy then there is no way you'll be welcome on this planet and considering the trouble we've had with trusting people recently you don't have much of a chance!"
Blackfire took a deep breath and stepped forward. The titans stepped back.
"I understand...I mean Starfire sent me a letter telling me about Terra and I'm sorry, really, but I promise you I've changed!" said Blackfire desperately.
"So did she and she changed back and died saving us! Are you going to change back" said Cyborg, but realised what he said and glanced at Beastboy who frowned for a second before carrying on for a minute.
"I had nowhere else to turn..." she continued.
"Then find somewhere!" Said Robin.
"Stop! No more arguing! If my sister has done her time then she must be sorry!" said Starfire pushing past Robin.
"Starfire, that's not necessarily true! They let her out because she had finished her sentence, not because she had been sorry for the crime!" said Robin, "And we can't let her stay here. How do we even know she's telling the truth? She might have escaped and is trying to get you into trouble again!"
"I'm not lying! I swear on my life that I'm telling the truth!" said Blackfire.
Robin looked Starfire straight in the eyes. He could she was struggling with herself, but what would she decide? She made her decision.
"My sister can stay, but she is not to use her powers and is not to be left alone!" said Starfire.
"You mean you actually expect us to stay in the same room as her!" said Beastboy, waving his arms, "Well not me! If you want her to stay then you keep an eye on her!"
"That seems like a good idea!" Agreed Cyborg, "She can't really hurt you now, not now you've been through transformation."
"We wouldn't really be able to stop her, your powers would be more sufficient for the job." Said Raven.
Robin looked at the others and then thought about it for a second, they did have a point. He nodded.
"She stays with Starfire." Said Robin, before turning away.
The others left after him. Starfire looked down; her picture frame was on the floor. The faces of the team smiling up at her.
"I really appreciate you sticking up for me and I promise you won't regret it!" said Blackfire.
Starfire didn't say anything. She just bent down and picked up her picture frame. A single tear ran down her cheek. 'Once again my friends have left me because of my sister' she thought, 'perhaps this wasn't a good idea'.
"Star?" asked Blackfire.
"Our room is this way." Said Starfire, walking from the room.
