Mail Bag:

Fire


Slade slammed the door behind him, and Starfire, paying no attention to her sister flew down to the floor and ran to Robin, who was almost recovered from his near-death experience.

Robin just had the chance to get to his feet before Starfire flung herself into his arms. She was so thin and she did not look like she had eaten in quite a while, and while this worried Robin he was glad she was safe. Robin noted she felt a bit warm, but they had just been fighting.

"Robin. It was terrible! They tied me up and... I'm so sorry..." Starfire told him, in a broken voice, and she stared to cry. She did not cry much, but it broke Robin's heart to see her so traumatized, so scared.

It was Then Robin realized, he was looking down on Starfire, he was now taller or just as tall as she was, then again, she wasn't wearing shoes, and he had his boots on. Just how long had it been since that night he took Starfire to the theater?

Brushing a tear off her face Robin said:

"Starfire, It's over now, You're okay, we're both alive, and you don't need to be sorry." Starfire nodded and her sobs stopped. Robin smiled at her, strangely enjoying the tender moment. Just then a huge gear crashed to the ground just a few inches from where they were standing.

"Aieeee!" Starfire shrieked, the gear had landed on the back of her dress before rolling away to smash the giant computer. "Let's get out of here!" Robin exclaimed, running towards the huge metal door, motioning for Starfire to follow.

Starfire used a Starbeam to cut a hole in the door. They entered some sort of hallway. It was lit, but with a yellowish sort of yucky light.She looked very reluctant to enter.

"We don't really have a choice, we have to go through here, Slade went this way, so there must be some way out!" Robin yelled, raising his voice over the sound of more falling gears.

He took Starfire by the hand and they ran into the hallway. The floor seemed to tilt down a bit as they ran through. They passes some closed doors, but after about ten minutes of running they passed a room with a open door. It was a small room and while running by Robin caught a glimpse of a table with a heat lamp above it , and under the heat lamp there was countless bags of fast food.

'Ughh. I wonder how long that's been there.' Robin cringed at the thought, some of that food might have beenmeant to be his, 'best not to let my thoughts dwell on that subject.' He decided, as he and Starfire continued down the hall.

It was not long before they came to another open door, this one was also lit and they paused to look inside Starfire gasped 'No way' Robin thought, sure enough it was the room in which they had both been held captive.

Robin led Starfire in, they found the room just as they had left it, only the water and soap on the floor had dried and looked really crusty and discussing. The blanket was laying where it had landed when Starfire's body shot him.

"We'd better take that blanket, beat up as it is." Robin suggested and he picked it up, Starfire nodded, but then she turned her head around, obviously trying to hide her tears from Robin, and he pretended he hadn't noticed she was crying. It was then that a gear drooped down in the hallway. They had to move on.

Starfire flew down the hall and Robin, still holding the blanket, had to run as fast as he could to keep up. No words were spoken, this was not the time to talk. They traveled down what now seemed the endless hallway, but after time too long to estimate they reached a door.

This door was made of metal and there was no handle, only a keypad on the side. Robin searched through his utility belt to find what he was looking for, a electric bomb. He started hooking up the wires when a huge wooden beam broke through the ceiling, and this beam was on fire! The area began to fill with smoke.

"Starfire! I can't see to set this up, blast the door!" Starfire quickly summoned her Starbeam power and melted the door clean out of the wall. more boards and things fell through and the fiery blaze grew more and more intense.

Just before the flames reached Robin the door was cold enough to walk through without the danger of having molten metal fall on their heads. Starfire flew through the opening and for the first time in a very long time set her bare feet on the cool grassy earth.

Robin quickly followed, and no sooner than both of his feet were outside, the building roof collapsed. Robin ran to where Starfire was standing and turned around to look at the building. It was in compleat ruin, the fire blazing as a light in the dark, for it was dark outside, a clear night and the moon shone brightly.

Starfire began to get a little shaky and she looked like she was going to fall down, so Robin gave her the blanket and put his hands around her shoulders to help her stand. Starfire stopped shaking and Robin broke their silence

"Well, good thing we weren't in there anymore."
