Ch.6

"Why did Venus curse you?" Robin asked, in a big state of shock. How could anyone curse this precious, sweet girl? "I do not know! All I heard from Galfore and Aunt Avril is that Aunt Venus cursed me to drink orange juice on my 16th b-day!" Starfire explained. "Is there a cure for the curse?" Robin asked, hopefully. "Well, I can still keep myself from drinking orange juice," Starfire said, simply. "And in case, it happens?" Robin asked, sadly. Starfire hesitated. "I recall my Aunt Avril saying that I have to receive a ki-" She was interrupted by Cyborg and Beast Boy who wanted Robin to go on a roller coaster ride with them. "Guys, I'm talking to Starfire!" Robin said, with irritation. "Oops! My bad!" said Cyborg, as he put his hand to his mouth. "Guess I'll come with you, two," said Raven. They three left. "As you were saying?" Robin asked Starfire. "My Aunt Avril says that I have to receive a kiss," Starfire finished. "Okay, that's easy!" said Robin, thinking he has nothing to worry about now. "No, Robin, it cannot be anyone, I think. She says it has to be a boy," said Starfire. 'WHAT? A GUY? I hope it will be me and not some other Earthling or Tamerian prince jerk. I'd be willing to do anything to save Starfire's life.' Robin thought, jealously. "Robin?" "Yeah?" "Please do not tell this to any of our friends. I do not wish them to worry about me," said Starfire. "Okay, but I'll make sure neither Beast Boy or anyone else offers you orange juice," Robin promised. "What if they question why?" Starfire asked, worried. "I'll just tell them that you're allergic to orange juice," Robin said, smiling. Starfire smiled, too. It's great to have someone help you out with your problem, whether big or small.

When Robin got home, he still wondered what to get Starfire for her birthday. "I wonder what Starfire likes," Robin said to himself. "Wait! What's that necklace Blackfire "gave" to Starfire one time? Oh yeah! The Centari Moon Diamond necklace! That's it!" Robin said to himself, happily. He quickly went outside of the Tower to the garage, got on his R-cycle and drove to the jewelry store. He bought the necklace with a lot of money (A/N: Um, I'm not good at math, so, I don't know much of how the stock market works.) and went straight home. When Robin raced to his bedroom, he carefully took out the necklace. It was so beautiful Starfire would love it! Of course, he can't tell it to Raven, nor BB and Cy or else they'll go, "Robin and Starfire! Sitting in the tree! K-I-S-S-I-N-G!" and make kissy noises, which irritate him a lot. "I hope her b-day will go smoothly tomorrow!" Robin thought.

Meanwhile, back at Slade's lair, they were getting ready for their evil plan. "So, all we have to do is get Starfire to try some orange juice?" Blackfire asked Slade and Venus, confused. "Yes, we heard Starfire and her gothic friend, Raven of hers, are going to the park tomorrow morning," said Venus. "And when they do, you will disguise yourself as a saleswoman who's trying to sell peach juice, and other earthling sweets for charity. When you see Starfire, you give her orange juice but tell her that it's peach juice, just one sip and she's dead!" Slade finished. "Yes, Aha! That little brat will be gone forever! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Venus said, happily with an evil smile.

"What if her friends come and try to hurt us for killing her?" Blackfire asked, suddenly. "Oh, we'll kill them by physically beating them up, and using my deadly weapons to use against them until their blood drains out of their bodies," Slade said, really, really, wicked. "AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!" He laughed.
