Well, I've been slightly busy, hence the dealy in putting this epilogue up. For anyone wondering where the rob/star is, it's here, and for anyone who is a star/X shipper, than forgo the epilogue and live in a RedX/Starfire world if you wish.

Thanks to my lovely reviewers, and much love to my one of the best flames I've read. Thanks for the laugh, whoever that was.

Hopefully the epilogue fixes up any confusion. And no being mad, it was a nightmare on Star's behalf, and what's worse than ending up being comforted by an enemy?


Epilogue

Starfire didn't know when a strong pair of arms wrapped themselves around her shaking, frail body, or when she had been pulled closer and a frantic voice tried to convince her to look up. The memories flew through her mind, and the fact that she was clutching Red X tightly for comfort barely fazed her at the moment. She buried her head deeper into his chest, trying to drown out his false words of sympathy.

"Starfire…Starfire? What's a matter? Why are you crying," he pleaded softly, gently trying to lift her chin up. "And why won't you look at me!" he demanded, yet it was not the harsh tones of Red X. Starfire paused, mid-sob, her breath caught suddenly in her throat. Her eyes snapped open, but the growing fear convinced her to quickly shut them again.

"Star? Talk to me…you fell asleep…and then you started crying…" the familiar voice said softly, gentle fingers raking through her hair. He once again attempted to lift her chin. Had she really been sleeping? She allowed him to do so; her eyes still squeezed shut, her breathing ragged. The tears ceased to fall as a glimmer of hope and fear flashed through her mind.

"Why won't you look at me…Star…what's a matter?"

"Robin…" she said softly, "but you are not dead?"

"Starfire…" Robin frowned as he wrapped an arm around her shoulders, "of course I'm not dead."

"But he killed you…I watched him! I watched him kill you!" her voice rose in panic.

"Who killed me? Starfire…"

"No!" She cut him off. "Red X killed you. I saw you…and the window…and X…he found me…it cannot be…"

"Star…I'm not dead. I've been with you all night," Robin protested gently, traces of alarm in his voice. Her emerald green eyes opened slowly, revealing a frowning Boy Wonder.

"It was merely a dream?" she asked, looking incredulously at him. "But it seemed so real…" With that, she flung herself into his arms, once again burying her head into his chest.

"I'm here, Star," Robin whispered softly, still softly running his fingers through her silkly hair. He gently bent down and placed a kiss amid her disarrayed locks as she shuddered underneath him. "And I always will be..."


Yay...I think that may have redeemed the fluff factor...yeah right. Well, there you have it, Robin and Starfire forever!

Hope you liked it. (Or thought it was decent).
