Blackfire sat at the side of the obstacle course, cross legged, hovering in
the air. Starfire stood at the start off the course, awaiting Robin's
signal to start. Blackfire noticed how confident she seemed and she was
amazed that Starfire could ever be so strong; she had always been the
better fighter, not Starfire. Blackfire calmed herself; she had to keep
herself under control for Starfire's sake.
Blackfire wasn't quite sure, but she got the feeling that the rest of the group kept throwing glances her way. She smiled to herself, she was making them nervous. Starfire made it to the end of the course. The rest of the team ran forward. Blackfire watched. Robin was the first to congratulate Starfire. Blackfire smiled again. It was just as she had thought.
"Beastboy's turn!" said Robin and the group walked to the sides, Starfire hovered beside Blackfire.
"You did well!" said Blackfire.
"I thank you!" said Starfire.
Blackfire smiled and watched Beastboy. He was doing quite well until the metal doors slammed down in front of him. He didn't seem quite sure which animal to turn into. Blackfire knew the best decision would be a mouse, they're fast and small. Beastboy, however, went for a snake. The door slammed down on his tail.
He rolled out as he turned back into a human, obviously in severe pain. They all ran forwards, including Blackfire.
"What should we do?" asked Cyborg.
"Can you lift him up?" asked Robin.
"It would have hurt his back..." said Blackfire.
They all looked at her. She suddenly felt a tiny bit self-conscious.
"Snakes do not have arms and legs, it might be best if we do not move him if he has injured his back. It could cause more damage." Explained Blackfire.
"She's right." Said Raven, looking back down at Beastboy, "We should call an ambulance."
"I will do that!" said Starfire, flying off.
Blackfire leant down beside Beastboy. She hoped he was okay, it wouldn't be very good if bad things started happening while she was there, they might think she was brining bad luck.
"Can we do anything?" asked Robin, also kneeling down.
"Just make sure he stays awake, keep talking to him. I read in a book once that if someone is severely injured you should keep them awake to stop them from fainting!" said Blackfire, she noticed that she had started talking more like Starfire.
Robin nodded and started talking to Beastboy. Beastboy didn't seem very impressed by this.
"Dude! I am in serious pain here! I don't want to hear about your fighting techniques!" said Beastboy, furiously.
"If he hasn't passed out yet, he can't have broken his back!" said Raven.
"He's talking fine enough!" said Cyborg.
Starfire came back.
"An ambulance will be here shortly, but someone will have to open the passage to the island!" Starfire.
"I'll do it!" said Robin, standing up, "Cyborg, I'll need you to deactivate the security first."
Cyborg and Robin walked away.
"You're probably going to have to stay in hospital, I'll pack your bag." Said Raven.
"I will assist you!" said Starfire.
They walked away.
"Don't leave me here with..." began Beastboy, but caught Blackfire's eye, "Hi Blackfire, how're you doing?"
Blackfire raised an eyebrow and looked out to see to watch for lights and sirens.
Blackfire wasn't quite sure, but she got the feeling that the rest of the group kept throwing glances her way. She smiled to herself, she was making them nervous.
