Ok, well as you may know, a couple ofpeople are working on this story together. We all wrote the first chapter, but Kara has been writing all the other chapters. She has writer's block though, so I'm going to try to write this chapter, which is why it probably won't be as good. But just tell me if it really sucks, Kara will continue to write the chapters.
Also, thank you so much "hekatie" for reading our story, and for telling us about needing to have a porthole to get to Azarath, we didn't know that. We'll have to try to add that in, I'm trying to do some more research on Marth. Isn't that scary how he's like real? He was on Kara's brother's video game and we thought he looked just like Raven, so we did some research, but not enough.
Thank you to anyone who reads and reviews our story.

Athalina had spent the whole day getting ready for her first encounter with Marth in years. She had been located in the small room off one end of the ship.
"What the hell are you doing?" Ariel said with disdain, as she walked into the room "We're not going to a beauty pageant "
By the way that Athalina was acting, Ariel could tell that she was still in love with Marth, "I don't know why you even care about Marth, he's a criminal."
Athalina timidly replied, "He said that he was set up."
"Oh, you don't really believe that b.s.do you?" Ariel said with scorn.
"Listen, I know Marth better than any of you, and I know that he would never murder any one. I do believe that he was set up, Ariel," Athalina said truly convicted, "the problem with you is that you don't have any faith in people".
"Oh I'm so sorry that I don't like your psycho murderer boyfriend." Ariel siad sarcasticly "I wish you'd be concentrating on the mission instead of doing your make-up." With that said, she left the room.
Looking at Athalina, it was easy to see why she would be so devoted to Marth. She wasn't a very bubbly person like Apple, and like Marth, she didn't often show too much emotion.
As she stared into the mirror she thought that maybe Ariel had been right, and Marth was a murderer, but she just couldn't believe that he would do something like that. He was always so sweet and caring, he always had protected her from the many evils of Azarath, and had stayed with her many hours when she had gotten a near deadly disease-talking to her, and trying to heal her with his powers. Marth as a criminal just didn't seem possible.
Athalina continued to get ready. Her long dark brown hair softly curled around her face and her black eyes shone in the dim light of their space capsule which was nearing the porthole to Earth.
Instead of her usualoutfitt she was wearing a short body-slimming midnight blue sheath. Her skin sparkled in the light and her hair had a faint smell of perfume.
"Wow, you look like so pretty," Apple said as Athalina stepped out of the small room into the main room of the ship"Marth will be glad to see you." she said with a giggle.
"If Marth lives long enough to see her that is." Ariel said with an evil grin that made Athalina's skin squirm, "By the way we should be arriving soon." Ariel left the main room to go to the control panel, knowing that she wouldn't have to worry about Marth for too long. If it was necessary, she'd just kill Athalina with him. Everything would work perfectly-that is unless Raven got in the way.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Back at Titan tower, Marth was sitting on the roof, wondering what he should do. He didn't want to bring harm to Raven or any of her friends-not even Robin. He had just wanted a safe place to hide. He knew that Ariel wouldn't have a problem killing him or Raven, but he wasn't so sure about the others. Apple never really thought for herself, she wasn't very smart and she just obeyed orders. If Athalina could just win Appleover, and Athalina...he hoped more than anything else in the world that Athalina had believed him. Marth just couldn't imagine Athalina trying to kill him. Not with her sweet smile, and the way that she could always tell what he was thinking and feeling, regardless of his some what emotionless expression. He did show some emotions, more than Raven, but still not a lot. No matter what, Athalina had always understood him, hopefully she still did.
In the living room, Beastboy and Cyborg were playing game station. "Dude, I don't know, but to me it seems like Robin hates Marth." Beastboy randomlycommented.
"No, you think." Cyborg replied sarcasticly.
"Why must friend Raven and Robin continue to fight?" Starfire asked innocently.
Cyborg answered her, "Well Star, Robins pretty mad that Marth came here since he's kinda putting us in danger. Rae and Rob have been at each other's throats alot recently."
Starfire left the room saying, "I will go check on friend Marth now. I know Robin does not trust him, but I feel that he needs a friend."
"You do that Star." Cyborg said.
Starfire dicied to cheek the roof because it was the place that Raven would always be if somrthing was troubling her.
Starfire smilled when she saw that Marth was there, looking out at the bay deep in thought.
"Hello Raven's brother Marth," Starfire said in a quiet sweet vioce, "I thought that you might like a companion." Starfire took a set next to him and looked out at the bay aswell.
"You know when I first came here," Starfire countiued "I did not think that I'd fit in either, but after a while I feel that I belong here. I am sure that they will like you once they get to know you, we all are just worried that we might be in danger."
Marth turned to face her. She kind of reminded him of Apple, whith the way that she smilled and always seemed so bubbly. Marth was sure that Starfire had to be much smarter then Apple though. "I am sorry for all that the trouble I have caused, maybe it would be best if I just left."

Next Chapter: well, the continuation of this I guess. Sorry that there's not really a feud, I'm not good at those, but Kara will be back to writing, so she'll take care of that. Your reviews are always appreciated.
