Ch.7
The next day, it was…Starfire's 16th birthday. DUN DUN DUUUUNNN! Starfire woke up in her bed and stretched out as she yawned. The day was beautiful and sunny. Starfire got dressed in her usual clothes and went downstairs to eat breakfast. Avril has not awakened yet, but Galfore, Batman, and Robin had and are now sitting down at the table, eating breakfast. Starfire said good morning to them and they said good morning to her back. As everybody was eating eggs and ham, Robin started thinking how happy Starfire would be once she opens up the present at her birthday party later on tonight at the Titans Tower. Hopefully, Starfire would be sooooooo happy that she would hug Robin and maybe kiss him! That is, if Starfire feels about him the same way as Robin feels about her.
At the Titans Tower, Robin, Cyborg, and Beast Boy were decorating the Tower to throw a surprise b-day for Starfire. (They told Raven to take Starfire to the park so; she won't get any suspicions about it.) Robin baked the cake. It was a strawberry cake with yellow frosting on it, a green swiggly line around the top of the cake. Inside, the circle of it, the green cursive letters that say, "Happy Birthday Starfire". Cyborg set the table by covering the table with a blue, sparkely, tablecloth and placing the silverware where they should be. Robin made the banner that says "Happy Birthday Starfire", on it. "Why is there a heart doting the 'i' in Starfire's name?" Beast Boy asked. Robin turned red. 'Stupid hormones' he thought to himself. "Awwwww! Does Robbie-poo have a wittle crush on Starfire?" Cyborg teased, which caused Beast Boy to laugh. "Um, well," Robin, said getting redder. "OOOOOOOOO! ROBIN AND STARFIRE SITTING IN THE TREE-EE! K-I-S-S-I-N-G! FIRST COMES LOVE! THEN COMES MARRIAGE! THEN, COMES A BABY IN A BABYCARRIAGE! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Cyborg and BB laughed. "SHUT UP, BEFORE I HURT YOU TWO NUMBSKULLS REALLY BADLY!" Robin yelled, angrily. "Awww! Is Wobin embarrassed of his wittle girlfriend?" Cyborg teased again, over Beast Boy's loud laughing. Robin gave them a real loud, scary growl, which made Cy and BB cower in fear. "Look! Let's just finish this, before the girls come home okay?" Robin commanded. "Gotcha chief!" said Cyborg, quickly, before he does something else to make Robin scare him, again.
Meanwhile, Raven and Starfire are at the park, talking to each other, and watching some kids-league baseball game. "Great!" Raven moaned. "What is wrong, friend Raven?" Starfire asked. "How stupid of me. I forgot to bring drinks for us," Raven said, emotionlessly. "Peach juice! Pineapple juice! Please try them out!" an older teenage-girl with long black covered by a brown hat and sunglasses called. (Gee, I wonder who that is!) "Raven! There's someone who's selling drinks! Maybe we can buy them!" Starfire said, smiling. "Okay. Good thing I brought cash," Raven replied. They walked over to the juice stand where the mysterious teenage-girl who looked about 18 stood trying to sell peach and pineapple juice. She secretly smiled, when she saw Starfire. "Hello, would you like to buy a drink?" The girl asked. "I wish to try out the one of the juices you are selling," Starfire answered. "What she said," said Raven, emotionlessly, as always. The girl asked the Titan girls which juice they would like and Raven wanted pineapple while Starfire chose peach. Little did Starfire know, the peach juice is actually a poisonous orange juice! Rae and Star thanked the girl and walked away. Raven took a sip of pineapple juice and liked it. Starfire took a sip of her so-called peach juice. As the liquid entered her mouth and slid down her throat, Starfire's eyes went wide and fell as she dropped the cup. Raven didn't notice until she turned around to see Starfire lying on the ground! "STARFIRE!" Raven gasped. She bent down to wake up the alien girl but no use.
"Slade! Aunt Venus! This Blackfire! I killed Starbrat!" Blackfire said, secretly in her walkie-talkie. She was the mysterious saleslady! "Excellent!" Slade answered. "At last! We killed my bratty niece!" Aunt Venus shouted, filled with victory. Then, they laugh. Only Blackire joined in.
"Beast boy!" Raven yelled in her T-communicator with tears in her eyes. She blew up her cup, but didn't care. "Raven, what's wrong?" BB asked, worried. "It's Starfire! Something is terribly wrong with her! You got to come at the park, quick!" Raven said, crying. "Don't worry, Rae! I'll be there in a jiffy!" Beast Boy responded.
"What's going on?" Cyborg asked BB. "Rae said something's wrong with Starfire!" Beast Boy explained. "WHAT?" Robin exclaimed in shock and worry.
