DISCLAIMER: I don't own Teen Titans but I own Michael & Sarah Greenway, Aquilus and Sarah Lex and... well a whole lotta bunchies of peoples

Whats up? This is the second last chapter. I know sad and all but all good things must come to a end. But there will be another story (hopefully). I think I lost alot of my readers when I was working on chapter 8... oh well unless I get like completely like no reviews I will keep on writing.

I havent come up with a name for the next story and I am taking in ideas for something that you'd want to happen in the next story. So yeah... also I have gotten a idea for a Terra/BB one shot which I am probably going to start writing if I can find some time.

Anyways, enjoy,

CHAPTER 9

Emotions Revealed

A pale fist gently knocked on the door labeled 'Starfire'. God... what am I doing? Raven asked her self. She turned around and took a step away, No go back and knock again... you want help right? Raven closed her eyes and turned around and knocked again the door slightly louder this time.

The sleepy eyed alien opened the door. "Raven," She said in the middle of a yawn, "What is your meaning of coming to my dwelling at such an early hour? Do you wish for me to turn off my box of music?"

"No Star... I just wanted to talk to another girl..." Raven said quietly. Starfire's big green eyes lit up and all sleepiness in her was replaced by bouncing hyper-active energy. "Come Raven!" Star said pulling Raven into her room and almost throwing Raven onto her bed while she zoomed into her bathroom. "What do you wish to talk about friend Raven?" Starfire yelled while in the bathroom. Raven could hear the alien moving around inside and finally she opened the door. Starfire was completely dressed in her usual uniform and was holding a bunch of hair ties in one hand while the other was still brushing her long hair. "Do you wish to have a girl talk which we talk about boys or make up or clothing or we could perform braiding maneuvers in each other hair while snacking on the tiny salted chips of the potato or-"

"I want to talk about Robin." Raven cut her off. "Oh..." Starfire's voice softened. Her eyes lost the bright glow they had before, she slowly glided over to her bed and sat cross legged besides Raven, "What about Robin that troubles you, friend Raven?" Starfire asked in a meek voice.

Raven let out a deep breath, "I don't know its just... you know I liked Robin for a while..." Raven stopped for a second and took a breath. Starfire's back stiffened and gazed at the floor, "And I was really happy. Then Slade came back into the picture and Robin... isn't himself anymore... you know?"

Starfire nodded, "I found it very hard to clam down dear Robin... before..." A touch of iciness gazed over Starfire's words but Raven just brushed it off. "And then that Catgirl came and I just know she isn't going to be good for the Titans but yet Robin insists that we keep her like she's some stray... cat or something!" Raven floated off Starfire's bed and walked over to the large window. She squinted against the glare of the sun, "I love him and this fight has tore me up on the inside. I can't even mediate anymore. I have this feeling in my heart that distracting my mind,"

Starfire got up off her bed and stood behind Raven, "Does it feel like your heart is slowly breaking making you lose all control of your mind. Slowly making you wonder how you'll ever go on if you never get to feel him wrap his arms around you or feel the feeling of his lips as he kisses you and tell you he'll never leave you!"

Starfire's voice was full of anger and hurt. Raven turned around slowly and stared at the enraged Starfire. Her eyes glowed green in fury and her hair flapped around dangerously. Raven reached out with her hands and spoke calmly, "Starfire... what are you doing? Calm down just relax..."

Starfire advanced towards Raven, "NO! I shall not hide my feelings anymore! I lost my dear Robin to you! I lost Beast Boy to Terra. I forgave her and I tried to forgive you. But I can not hold in my pain any longer! You don't know what its like to keep on getting rejected... to be pushed back and thrown away for another woman so I'll tell you: it hurts! You begin to wonder if you should keep on living. There are many times I wanted to fly back to Tamaran and forget all about this stupid little planet!"

Tears rolled out of Starfire's green glowing eyes. She dropped her head into her hands and sobbed. "Star..." Raven said her voice soft and caring. She advanced and put a arm around Starfire. Starfire straightened up and pushed Raven off. Raven tripped over a pillow that was on the ground fell. She sat up to see Starfire aiming a starbolt right at her face. "Starfire, what are you doing," Raven hissed narrowing her eyes not one bit scared of the alien. No way is she ever going to shoot that at me... she bluffing... Raven thought 100 percent confident. Starfire screamed something at Raven in her language then sent the starbolt at Raven.

Raven's eyes widened then transformed into a black energy Raven and disappeared through the floor.

The starbolt hit the pillow that Raven tripped over and completely incinerated it. Raven reappeared and stared at Starfire. Starfire matched Raven's stare as if they were testing each other to see who would back down first and look away. Raven stiffened her jaw and Starfire's hard face slowly started to melt until she was blubbering again. She covered her red, wet face and sobbed. "Raven I am truly sorry. How could I turn against my own friend? Please leave me! I need to be alone!"

Raven didn't need to be told twice. She walked abruptly to the door and turned around when she was just outside Star's room. She saw Starfire collapse on her bed and Raven pushed the button that closed the door.

Raven pulled up her hood and walked down the hallway. Well besides almost getting killed that didn't help me with Robin. Raven sighed silently.

Raven looked up to see Robin walking down the hallway with the newspaper in his hand. She lowered her head and stared at the ground she pretended not to notice Robin as she passed him. "Wait Raven..." He called. Raven turned around, "Yeah?"

"Here... I think you should read this..." Robin handed Raven the newspaper. Raven stared blankly at the front page. LOCAL GIRL DIES OF SUICIDE stared back at her. "Wha...?" Raven asked softly to herself.

Jump City News Reporter

Jump City- The body of a teenage girl washed up on the beach early this morning about a half mile away from Titans Tower. The body has been identified as Sarah Lex. The body was discovered by surfer, Aaron Richard, and then was reported to the police. Her shoes were also found on the beach a little distance than the body. Richard said that the expression on her face looked peaceful and he thought she was asleep so he tried shaking her and but when she didn't awake he called the police. The body was badly bruised it was taken in for an autopsy. All the police released from the report was that the bruises were pre-mortem and perhaps Sarah has tried to commit suicide before. Upon questioning Mr. Lex he replied with only response, "My daughter left the house sometime in the evening around six-thirty or so and I didn't see her after that. I don't know what happened to her and I have no clue why she would commit suicide." Mr. Lex's lawyer then rushed him away and informed the paper that Sarah's funeral is in four days and everyone wanting to pay their respects to Sarah is welcomed.

Raven gazed over the article first quickly once then she read it again making sure she understood every word. "Sarah's... dead..." No it didn't sound right it wasn't right it couldn't be. No... Sarah has been depressed before... when she gets really bad I clear her mind... and besides when I saw her that night she was mad but not suicidal... IT MUST BE ANOTHER SARAH LEX! Raven's eyes shot across the page over and over again. "No..." she whispered softly, "No, no, no..."

Raven dropped the paper. Her face was blank and her eyes were starting to moisten. Robin wrapped his arms around her and Raven returned the hug. Robin softly stroked her hair and whispered in her ear, "I'm sorry Raven..." Raven nodded slowly as one tear rolled down her cheek.

oOoOoOoOoOo

Hmm... I don't know if people will like this chapter as much as the others. I know Star attacking Raven... a little far fetched I know but really how would you feel if someone stole Robin away from you :winks:I know she'd be dead in a second :evil grin:
Just some warning that Starfire will be over coming major air-head qualities that we've all come to know and love (not really she pisses me off alot) in the show and I will start to develope her personality more to the surroundings. Sounds like fun, eh?

Anyways, today I'm handing out just a few muffins :tears up: so here ya go:
