By Rose
Disclaimer: You know the drill.
Summary: Starfire's heart breaks as Robin finds himself falling helplessly for a new girl. Raven seems to be having the same problem as she and Terra battle over Beastboy. PAIRNGS: Star/Rob/OC, Terra/BB/Rae, Cyborg/Bumblebee.
Okay, there used to be another chapter but it totally, SUCKED! Dear Lord, to those who read it: wow, you have got some patience. Sorry, im rewriting this piece of crap!
My previous chapter Reviews:
Princess Starfire of Tamaran: you seriously will stop reading this if I do weird pairings? Wow. Well, here's my idea: I will do Star/Rob, but the titans get a new member. In comes in some new girl, and totally sweeps Robin off his feet. You may bash her, in fact, I encourage it. Rae/bb/Terra will be sprinkled in chapters, often adding humor or drama. In the end, perhaps Starfire will find Robin. And the new girl may be attacked by a mob of angry reviewers... but i really don't know. I'm just writing this off the top of my head, but I'm open for suggestions! AWESOME CHARACTER! But the thing is, can you imagine her with Robin? And would you mind if I openly bashed her? Maybe she'll come with the real bitch, because I love her powers. Very creative. HATS OFF TO YOU!
Rose: Haha, yeah, don't we all? Sorta pathetic I reviewed for myself... but its not like i complimented...
Angelina Johnson: amusing? Yes, sorta what I was heading for. But im rewriting it, so I hope my new first chapter will be better!
D-I-WaRrIa: Hey you! Thanks for the truth! It was actually your review that made me decide to rewrite it! I am having a little writers block on The Darkness in Starfire's Heart, but I'll update...some day, lol. I don't play with my toes!...just my feet... I TAKE AFTER MY CATS, OKAY! lol. sorry 'bout that... I understand about creativity, and I'll try to be as original as I can!..so I'm not doing the RedX/Star pairing... (RedX: what? NO!) I like your character! Something that starts with an S? well, Sarah reminds me of Cyborg's girlfriend.. maybe Stella? Sandra? Sally? (..no) I think I like the idea of Wondergirl! Sandra doesn't sound bad. I think i'll do your character, and not only because your my fav author. ..well, maybe a little ;) Starfire is not going to the opening of the new dance club, Lush, because Cyborg's singing gave her a head ache, but now i realize that that is lame and I am rewriting it! Anyways, thanks for reviewing! I think you might have been the only honest reviewer. At least I know I can trust you! (BTW: Im a brunette, No offense taken about the blond bimbo thing!)
Ultimatum G A M E R: Curse your penname, it took me forever to type! (im a bad typer, sry.) Flames are not accepted, but i'll take civilized critism. No stupid pairing bashing or Terra protecting! K? My grammer?..er...sorry? Alright, I'll try and do better.. You actually thought that chapter was good? Even I thought it sucked! I'm rewriting it! Hope my grammer and discription is better! If not, I don't think this is the story for you.
FallingDarkAngel: HI! Omigod, you had better be joking on that rae/rob thing, you made me twitch! LOL. I'll be sure to read Since You Been Gone! Sorry I haven't yet! Did you steal anyhoo from me? ACK! DID YOU!.. (you pull out a hand gun) ...you can have it, no big deal. lol. It's a fun word. Did you even read the story, or do you just like reviewing me? Either way, THANKS FOR REVIEWING!
Ldy-FLoR: Dude, I love it! But I also have this idea: Robin's all over star, and star luvs him too, but then the new (cough, bitch, cough) girl walks in and is totally into Robin. Robin, automatically likes her and flirts and flirts, and kinda forgets about star, who kinda hides in her room, not wanting to watch them flirt. But i totally love that you gave suggestions! THANK YOU!
WinxPhsyca: thanks, but im rewriting it. Sry if you were taken with the original story, but i reread it and was like:"WTF!" so, i hope you like this rewrite better!
Okay, done. So, here's the new character:
Wondergirl, AKA: Sandra Laurence. (made up last name)
Powers: eye lasers, x-ray vision, super strength, flight
Outfit: Pink/white swirled midriff top, short black skirt, black fish net tights, dark pink wrap-around-the-legs-high heeled sandals
Other facts: Has blonde hair, (she's your typical blonde bimbo no offence if you are blonde) brown eyes, a pink rose in her hair...
any objections? None? okay! Here's the rewritten chapter!
Chapter One: A Sick Tamaranian
It was your typical day for the teen titans. Beastboy was distributed all over the couch, pouring over his monthly 'Moped Dreams' magazine. Raven was quietly meditating by the window, surrounding herself with a black aura, to block out the music Terra was listening, and singing badly, to. Robin was reading the paper, and occasionally sneaking looks at Starfire, who was sitting quietly against a pillow, looking slightly paler than usual and reading Little Woman. Robin noticed this and asked, "Hey Star, do you feel okay?"
Starfire looked up, and her eyes looked slightly dull, "I am feeling slightly less than good, perhaps it is because of Cyborg's endless singing?" Robin rolled his eyes and glared downstairs where Cyborg was working on his 'Baby' and singing at the top of his lungs...
"WHEN THERE'S TROUBLE YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO!" sang Cyborg, who had been singing for nearly 2 and a half hours now.
"CYBORG! ENOUGH!" screamed Terra, upset that she couldn't hear her music over his voice.
"CALL CYBORG!" shrieked Cyborg causing everyone to flinch, because of his shrillness in his voice.
"Chill Terra, he's just singing… even though it has been for the past two hours...," complained Beastboy, staring at Robin as to ask him to tell Cyborg to shut his wide trap.
"HE CAN SHOOT A ROCKET FROM HIS SHHHOOOEEE!" sang Cyborg as he continued to sing.
"UGH! I can't meditate with that worthless excuse of a song!" Raven snapped, her aura shattered.
"'CAUSE HE'S CYBORG!" Screeched Cyborg.
"Is it wrong if your head feels as though being trampled by a graknorf?" asked Starfire, as she suddenly clutched her forehead and wimpered in pain looking even more pale.
"You have a headache, no thanks to Cyborg..." said Raven as she glared Terra as though this was her fault.
"HEY, WHAT DID I DO!" asked Terra, suprised at the sudden accusing look.
Starfire wimpered at Terra's shrill voice, and Raven and Robin both glared at her.
"Starfire, are you sick?" asked Robin, placing his hand on her forehead.
"I am, unsure. I feel rather oystery." explained Starfire, causing Robin to stare at her in confusion.
"Does she mean clammy?" asked Terra, just as confused. 'Leave it to Starfire to mess that up. Gosh, what complete bimbo!' she thought to herslef, forgetting completely that Raven could read minds. Raven threw a book atTerra and glared at her, "Your the bimbo!" she insutled, angry thatTerra had insulted Starfire.
"DOO DOO DOO DOO, SOMETHIN' LIKE THAT, OH YEAH!" sang Cyborg, ever louder as he continued to work on the T-car.
"Cyborg, give it a rest!" yelled Robin, as he watched Starfire gave out a small wimper and her hand shoot up to her forehead, and grasp it in pain.
"NA NA NA NA, BIG FLUFFY CAT! THAZ RIGHT!" shouted Cyborg, unaware that all the Titans could hear his 'song'.
"What the hell is Cyborg singing about!" askedTerra, looking horrified about the cat.
"Don't askme, because I seriously don't know.." said Beastboy, feeling slightly disturbed by the last line of the song.
About 30 minutes later, Cyborg came up from the garage. "Hey guys, what's goin' on?" he asked casually.
"Dude. We need to talk." said Beastboy in a serious tone.
"About what?" asked Cyborg.
"About a certain song..." said Raven, coming out from the shadows behind him.
"...wh-what song?" asked Cyborg, feeling nervous.
"The song you have been singing for the past three hours and 3 minutes." said Starfire, with an ice pack on her head, showing signs of extreme head aching and looking even more pale than before.
"oh!...that one...hehe..." said Cyborg, giving a sheepish smile.
"And we all want to know," said Beastboy in a serious tone.
"What is the 'Big Fluffy Cat', exactly?" finished Robin.
"...nothing?" said Cyborg awkwardly, " Okay, so I'm a really bad ryhmer... leave me alone.gosh,"
"TOLD YOU HE WAS JUST A BAD RHYMER!"yelled Beastboy at Robin, looking sympithetically at Starfire as she moaned in pain at the sudden sound of loud noise and clutched her head.
"Idiot." muttered Raven.
"Sorry Star!" said Beastboy.
"You...are...forgiven..." said Starfire, as she lay on the couch with a large ice-pack on her forehead. Raven walked over and took her temperature. "You have a fever and a head ache, you need rest." she stated as she looked at the temperature on the thermometer.
"What is the tempetature?" asked Cyborg, feeling guilty, as though it was his fault Star was sick.
"245 degrees, why?" stated Raven.
"WHAT?" skrieked Robin and Cyborg in alarm. "HOW IS SHE STILL ALIVE!"
"My body temperature is different compared with yours," explained Starfire.
"Will you be well enough to go out with us tonight to see the new club, Lush?" asked Robin, recovering from the previous shock.
"I probably will, what is the current time?" asked Starfire.
"No Star, we should be leaving in an hour, and loud music won't help your head ache go away." ordered Raven like a mother. "You might be well in three hours, but not one."
"AN HOUR! I NEED TO GET READY!" Terra practically screamed and dashed out of the room, and Ravenglared at her the whole way, angry about her screaming.
Raven made Starfire some herbal tea and tucked her into the sofa, like a sick child.
"Thank you, friend Raven," said Starfire as she deeply sipped her tea, and pressed the ice pack to her forehead.
"Yeah, sure. You had better stay in bed for at least 3 hours, just read, or watch tv, but don't turn the volume up too loud," ordered Raven, as she got up to get ready.
20 minutes later, Robin walked inlooking rather nice in Levi jeans and a tight grey shirt with the words Born to be the 'Hero' written across in black leters. His hair was the same, but he took off his mask and replaced it with sunglasses.
"Hey Star, how do you feel?" he asked in a worried tone.
"Fine, you look rather nice, where have you guys decided to go, again?" she asked, blushing slightly at his new look, and his utter hotness.
"Dancing, remember? There's a new club called, Lush. We were invited to check it out for free. Wish youwere better so you could go!" said Robin, disapointed about the fact that he wouldn't be able to dance with her. Starfire winced slightly at her last experiance with a dance club.
"I'm sure I'll be fine.."
"And Beastboy's ready!" announced Beastboy as he came in wearing jeans, a black tight T-shirt showing off his chest muscels nicely, and red converse tennis shoes.
Robin did a fake wolf whistle, and Starfire gave him a thumbs up. Cyborg walked in, wearing his normal attire, but also wearing ome cologne. (im still uncreative, okay? leave the author be!)
"Hey Star, how do you feel?" he asked, still feeling guilty since it was his fault she had a head ache.
"I will feel better soon!" she answered positivly, while Robin glared at him from behind her.
"Yeah you will if everyone stops bothering her!" said Raven as she walked in leaving Beastboy positvely speechless. Raven wore a dark purple camisole under a lacy black stretchy longsleeve shirt, and black jeans. On her wrists she wore spiky braclets, and she wore sivler hoops earings. She looked stunning. Her hair was up in a loose bun, tied up in a velvet piece of cloth, and many loose strands of hair hung in her face. She also wore black mascera and dark purple eye shadow. She put a shiny coat of lip gloss on her lips, and smelled as though she had just walked out of a green house. (Purfume, duh.)
"Wow Rae, you look great!" complimented Beastboy, making her blush.
"Yes Raven, I love your choice of uniform, it suits you!" said Starfire smiling.
"Thanks, is Terra ready yet?" asked Raven uncomfortablefrom all the attention she was getting.
"Now I am!" said Terra as she stepped out wearing an army-print mini skirt and lime greentank top. It probably would of looked okay... if her shirt and skirt actually matched, and she wasn't wearing orange lip-liner and seafoam green eye shadow.
"Er...you look nice?" said Beastboy, trying desperatly to ignore the badly put-on make-up. Even Starfire wasn't looking directly at her. (MWAHAHA!)
"Thanks!" she said giving him a grin, which to Raven's delight had shown a great deal of the lip stick she had accidentally put on her teeth, instead of her lips. (Tries to muffle laughter, ...fails miserably)
"Okay! Everyone ready?" asked Cyborg, trying desperatly not to burst out laughing at Terra's make-up disaster.
A chorus of 'Yeahs' came out and they all headed out to the T-car, except Robin who stayed behind and gave Starfire's hand a squeeze.
"We'll be back soon, try to get better!" said Robin as he let go of her hand, surprised at the sudden feeling of cold he got as he let go, the feeling he often got evertime he had just touched her. He stared at her and was overcome with a sudden urge to grab her hand again, and keep holding it.
"I shall be desperatly bored without you, but please, have fun!" said Starfire, who also longed to snatch his hand back and feel the warmness she always felt whenever they touched. (aww, cuteness)
Robin laughed, "Alright, see you later!" he said and to his surprise, leaned in to kiss her on the forehead, until...
"YO ROBIN, YOU COMING? LUSH WILL BE CLOSED TO BY THE TIME YOU DECIDE TO COME DOWN!" screamed Cyborg, impatinetly.
"Coming!" Robin yelled as he jerked away from Starfire, blushing a bit, and waved goodbye. 'What the hell was I doing! I nearly kissed her! She would have freaked!...but still, damn Cyborg, couldn't he hold his patience for at least two damn seconds!' cursed Robin, as he hurried down stairs.
Starfire sat there for a while, confused...what had just happened? Was he leaning in to kiss her? No. Robin wouldn't. He didn't feel that way about her... but she couldn't help longing for that warm sensation he gave her. It was as though stepping from a cold air-conditioned house to a warm sunny day. She loved it, it was a wonderful feeling. (she loves Robin, not the feeling!)
She sighed, and looked at the T-car as it drove away. "Have fun my friends, please come home soon...Robin..." Starfire whispered, and picked up Little Woman and continued to read into the night.
