Invasion and the Transformation
We all walked down the long, deep path that led to a metallic door. Cyborg lifted his sonic cannon and tried to open it that way a few times, but that didn't work. I tried to blast it open as well, using my starbolts. Beast Boy tried to headbutt it open in an elephant form, but it didn't help much either. Raven used as much concentration as she had, and yet, the door wouldn't budge. Even after all that... only a few dents had been left in the strong, sturdy metal. I thought about it for a second. "Cyborg.. do you happen to have a marker?" I asked. "Yeah.. right here.." he said, opening up a few devices. "Why?" "Could you put an X right about here?" I said, pointing to the largest dent. He did so, and I told everyone,"Concentrate all your powers here at the same time. Maybe we can get through to Robin THAT way." I said desively. They all nodded in agreement, and got ready to begin once again. Beast Boy transformed into a dinosaur.. one that Robin calls Rex.. and turned to where he was facing away from the door, tail ready to hit against it. Raven began to chant silently to herself, as if preparing herself to use a lot of energy and concentration. Cyborg's cannon charged up with energy. And I began to think furious thoughts, and charge up for my attack as well.
I yelled "Now!" and immediately, even threw their best attacks at the wall. A hole as large as the dent appeared, just big enough for a head to fit through. I looked into it and saw no cameras or people, simply an even longer tunnel, and a button. I sighed and told Beast Boy to transform into something small enough to get through the hole and then go through it. He nodded, and transformed into a bug. He climbed up the wall and to the other side. He transformed back into human form, and I instructed him to hit the button beside him. He did, and the door whoosed open. We continued in this manner until we came upon a different type of door, one that required a password or, apparently, a card, to open instead of brute force.
Cyborg opened a weird card device that he used to get passwords out of, and slid in down the card slot. The door beeped open, and we saw a hallway, ith closed doors all around. "Spread out. Try to stay incognito, without people noticing you. We simply need to get Robin." beast Boy turned into a mouse, Raven put her hood up sot aht no one could see her face, Cyborg entered a code in and his appearance changed to one of a.. girl? with light blue hair and a petite appearance. I kep back laughter as I tried to think of how I should change my appearance. I then remembered something I had built into my uniform.. a button that would change my uniform's appearnce, and the tint of my hair. to purple. It was a safety measure the Tameraneans made me take, since I was their princess.
We all went seperate ways. There were two hallways, each leading to two different hallways. I didn't direct anyone to take a certain hallway, since, it didn't really matter. I thought about it for a second and decided to take the hallway nearest to me.. it was as if I had a feeling that Robin would be that way. I looked inside a few doors, and I was almost down the hallway completely, and about to turn to another one, when a door suddenly opened. "I can't wait until the dance, Jinx. It is going to be awesome." said someone in a Nightwing costume. NIGHTWING! But.. that is Robin's would be future self.. so.. he took the name Nightwing and became this? No one else, besides the Titans, knew of this.. and Robin.. he.. gosh, this is confusing! But ths must be Robin, this IS Robin. I know it is certain. "Are you... Robin?" I asked shyly.
"I used to be. What, do you want an autograph?" he said, glaring at me. "No. I want you to come back." I said. "I don't know what you are talking about." "It is me. Starfire." I said. I changed my appearance back to normal, and they both poised themselves to fight. "I don't want to fight you Robin." I said. "Then fight Nightwing." he said with a malcious smirk. He suddenly attack me with a staff he grabbed from seemingly nowhere. He began trying to attack me, with me dodging every attack thrown at me. I began to unleashed starbolts, for I was not about to simply let him win. When I had a spare moment, I pushed the call button on the communicator, and within 5 minutes, there they were, with me fighting Nightwing. Jinx even joined in on the fight once all the Titans.. minus Robin.. fought.
Beast Boy and Cyborg together blasted Jinx against the wall, and Raven used her powers to keep her that way. Beast Boy went into the gorilla form and pinned him against the floor. "GO AHEAD! FINISH ME OFF!" screamed Nightwing.. Robin. I bent down, and said,"Robin. I knwo that you are in there. Please. Come back." I said. "Robin is gone. I am now a full fledged HIVE student. SO THERE!" Suddenly, Raven had an idea. "Starfire.. come here.. Cyborg, control Jinx for the time being." said Raven. realising
breifly, before Cyborg grabbed her and held her against the wall himself, making sure the hands couldn't be used.
"I have read.. that a moment of intamacy, a kiss, with someone who has been brainwashed, if the two had been close, MIGHT work. Starfire, you must kiss him, as best as you can, and make him remember who he used to be through you." said Raven. "But.. I have never kissed before. It sounds a little like a mating ritual." I said shyly, and just a bit confused. "NO, Starfire.. it isn't quite that serious. But, sometimes, ir does show how much you care for a person. And I can tell you care deeply for Robin." I nodded in agreement, and, since I had seen movies, I decided to get ready to kiss Nightwing, in order to bring back Robin.
I leaned down once again, and 'puckered' my lips. I pressed them against Nightwing's/Robin's, and a gasp of pain exited him. "AH!" he said. "I am sorry, did I not do it right?" I asked Raven. "No.. you did okay. But, the transformation might be a little painful." she replied. "Oh, I hope not to much!" I said. I leaned down once more to kiss him, for the first one I quite liked. This time, I nodded to Beast Boy to release him, and he did so. I kissed Robin again, and this time, he embraced me and kissed back. "Star.." he whispered.. then passed out.
I smiled lightly at Raven, and she nodded. Cyborg released Jinx, and she got ready to fight once again. "No. We just came to get our friend back."I said. "BUT WHAT ABOUT MY FRIEND!" she said. SHe fell to her knees, and, unbelievably, cried. "He was my only friend, the only one who ever understood me. The only one who could follow me. The only one who cared!" she said, between sobs. "Uh.." started Beast Boy. I thought about it for a second, and said,"Jinx, you ALWAYS have a choice. You don't have to stay here. In fact.. I think, under supervision of course, that you can have an, uh, open invitation to try out the Teen Titans. You have the moves, and well, it seems that you need it. Badly." I said. Whether or not I had made the right choice in piting Jinx, well, I would soon find out. It was apparent, though, that the other Titans did not agree with my descisions. But, this was the most earnest thing I had ever seen come from a HIVE student.. and, well, even if she did seem a little evil.. she was still human.
"You.. you.. would really d-d-do that.. for me? W-when.. I had been so horrible?" she asked, timid, and scared. "Yes. Everyone deserves a second chance." I said. I held my hand out to her to help her up off the ground. She smiled.. the first real smile I had seen come from her, and took it. "I'll try not to disapoint you." she said, then smirked. I looked down at Robin, and then picked him up. I looked at the other Titans, and the perhaps new Titan, if she conducts herself correctly, and then carried Robin off, the others finding their own ways to get back to the Tower.
