AN: Hiya folks, guess you're all wondering 'bout the name change. Well here's the 411 about that. As I was desperately trying to update my profile-the wonderful people in charge of F. refused to let me update it with my name still being Bree-2006, for some unknown reason numbers in the Pen name are no longer aloud. So with the name Bree already taken, I had to quickly come up with a new one. Unfortunately I hate it and I will forever be known as Bree-2006. So if you decide to send me emails please stick with my previous Pen Name. Thanx-
Who is Babs?
Babs is short for Barbara Gordon the niece of the commissioner of Gotham. She became Batgirl and fought alongside Batman. She in the 'Nightwing' comics became Nightwing's-(Dick Grayson) Love interest. She is also supposedly older than he is and showed him love after he and Starfire (From the original 'New Teen Titans') broke up and went back to Tamaran to marry some ugly dude. In the 'Nightwing' comic they are a couple but in Batman after she suffers a broken back becomes Oracle, the woman behind the scenes of Batman's adventures. (She's in a wheel chair) I don't remember if they're together or not.
But in this story she's Dick's annoying first girlfriend. She hasn't suffered any broken backs and is still Batgirl. She, like Dick, is 18 but just a few months older than he is.
Got that?
Now forget everything I just told you.
Good.
Cuz this is a Star/Robin fic no Batgirl/Robin. But if you think about it Babs had Ruby-red hair just like a certain Tamaranian. What a co-in-ca-dink, Robin you sly dawg!
The engine of my bike began to rustle and clang as it trudged haphazardly down the windy road on the outskirts of Gotham. I had left less than an hour ago but felt as if it had been countless hours. My best friend was in trouble and that's all I could think about.
I heard a loud clanking noise above me and skidded my bike to a halt. I took off my helmet and stared in disbelief as a familiar red-head popped her head out of the window of Bruce's private jet.
"Oh no…" I spoke under my breath. She threw down a ladder and I prayed she didn't expect me to climb it. Of course what else would the ladder be for? One of the men that had accompanied her on the flight to find me slid down the ropes and attached my bike to a dangling holster. Shaking my head I began the long climb up to the open door of the jet.
Reaching the top she offered me a hand and I graciously took it. Fixing my windblown hair I began to chuckle.
"Whaaaaat?" she wined giving me her best innocent look. Smiling I looked at her.
"Thanks." She happily clapped her hands together.
"Hey, what are friends for?" I moved to sit in one of the leather seats that occupied the inside of the jet.
"Sooo? Who we looking for?" she asked as she plopped down into the seat next to mine. I leaned back, shut my eyes and listened to the roar of the jet.
"We?" She looked at me strangely.
"Yeah we, I want to help." I opened my left eye and looked at her as she tried her best to give me the Puppy dog eyes. I shut my eye again and breathed in heavily.
"You know that doesn't work on me."
"Oh come on Dick, we haven't seen each other in so long. I promise to not get in the way."
"What about Bruce, doesn't he need you?" She smiled.
"Nope…he can handle the city without me for a few days, besides I want to meet your friends…especially this Starfire person you always talk about." I cringed as she said the name. She caught it.
"She's the one missing huh?" Nodding slowly I leaned back further into the chair. Feeling a hand on my shoulder I opened my eyes and looked over.
"Don't worry Dick, I'm sure she'll be fine." I smiled slightly and covered her hand with mine.
"I know…"
The air was stuffy and the feel of cold metal against her back woke her from her deep sleep. Her green eyes opened and she looked around at her surroundings. Her hands and feet were bound, a foil type of an 'X' around her palms preventing her from using her Starbeams. She focused her powers to her eyes trying her best to create laser beams from them.
Nothing happened.
She cried out in frustration, hoping her anger would help her beams to form. Still it was in vain. She thought of boundless confidence, praying for her strength to pull her away from the wall.
Once again nothing happened.
"Don't panic." She told herself. She knew her friends would come soon. A cold breeze rustled around her and she was aware of one thing.
She was naked, save from her undergarments, which didn't cover much. She looked over at a door that she was unaware of before and stared into the eyes of her capture. Even with the fail mask that covered his eyes she saw his intentions.
And she would have none of it.
"Finally you're awake." He spoke as she glared at him menacingly.
"You will free me from this." She spoke, pure venom dripping in her voice. He smiled evilly, chuckling as she squirmed in her position.
"Of course, in due time." He walked up closer reaching out a tentative hand. Suddenly she gasped as it trailed over her left cheek.
"Beautiful…" was all he could say before she shot up and spit forcefully onto his face. He growled angrily.
"Not a good idea." He warned taking a step back and wiping off the girls saliva. He headed to a nearby table where many items lied.
"What have you done to me?" She asked tears spilling from her eyes. He held up an empty placebo.
"Just gave you a little bit of liquefied Metallic Chromium. Not enough to kill you, just enough to make you useless."
"What do you wish of me?" She asked as he grazed over a few more of the items.
"I wish of you." She looked up abruptly.
"Me?" he nodded. She looked down at the ground and sighed.
"Why me, I can not give you what you wish to have." He placed everything back on the table and walked up to her.
"I want you by my side, Starfire." His hand lifted up her chin.
"…you have enchanted me." She shook her head.
"No, my heart belongs to another." He looked displeased.
"Is that so and who might that be?" She looked at him disgustedly.
"You shall never know." She gawked, smiling. He growled and lunged forward, the back of his hand colliding with her golden colored cheek.
"You'll mind your tongue." She smiled.
"No, whatever you do to me you will surely pay for." He grinned.
"I tried to be nice…"
The ride to the tower went a lot faster than it would have if I would have taken the bike. Placing on our uniforms we landed at the private port on top of the tower and waltzed in without a further word to the driver than a 'Thank you'.
There in the living room the three remaining Titans stood. The room fell silent as Babs and I walked in.
"'Bout time you got here. We were going to start without you." I ignored Beast Boys obnoxious statement and walked over to Raven.
"Who's that?" she asked referring to Babs who stood quietly behind me.
"Guys this is Batgirl, she's an old friend of mine from Gotham, so play nice with her." Beast Boy's ears perked up.
"Batgirl? As in Batman's Batgirl." She smiled.
"The one and only." Raven shook her head.
"Down Beast Boy we've got a Titan to find." BB frowned.
"Anyways I'm Raven, that little grass stain is Beast boy and the one drooling in the corner is Cyborg." Babs nodded.
"Nice to meet you all." I walked over to her side and handed her a communicator.
"Try not to lose it, I belongs to Starfire." She nodded happily. Raven tapped me on the shoulder.
"There's still no location, we have to wait for a while and hope something pops up, BB and I were going to go and see if there were any more clues at the scene. Hopefully there is something at the plant that had held the Psynophium that was stolen." I nodded.
"You need to look up the crime files and find whatever you can on Red-X." Signing she put her hand on my shoulder.
"Were going to find her." I smiled.
"I know…I know."
Yay I like this chappy…finally someone else's POV. J/K don't forget to review!
Thanx to those who have!
