An Old Friends Visit
Her fingers traced over the picture that had
been taken so long ago. The smiling, happy
face in that picture was all she had left of him. Every other memory had been washed away by all her tears.
At that instant, Rose burst into the room. "Someone's here to see you!" She screamed from the doorway. Thinking about it, Rose was the most important thing she had to remind her of Robin's startling blue eyes.
"Cute kid, Star." Raven said when Starfire entered the greeting room. Raven smiled as a surprised look crossed Starfire's face. "You didn't honestly think it would be hard to locate you?" Raven questioned.
"So I bet you're wondering why I'm here?" Raven continued, "I am to deliver you a message, from the Titans. Here it goes, we all want you to come home Star. Everyone misses you. The Tower isn't the same without you."
Star tried to hold back tears. For years she wished it was as simple as that. She had wanted to go back in time and stop everyone from growing up. But, as she had always known, she could not.
Starfire lay awake thinking about Raven's visit. 'If it was that easy to track her down, why hadn't they done it sooner?' was the only question that came into her head.
Beside her, Rose was snoring. 'I guess I could visit them for a couple days.' And that was Starfire's final thought before she drifted off to sleep.
"The bus is pulling out in 10 minutes Rose!" Starfire yelled down the hall as she carried the luggage out to the car. As soon as she walked back into the front door, Rose came out of her room wearing a mini tube top and shorts.
You are not going out of the house with that on!" Star told Rose sternly. With a heavy sigh, Rose want back to her room to change.
The 10 minutes were finally up and Starfire went out to the Z-3. Thirty seconds later, Rose was jumping into the passenger seat. Star checked Rose's attire and this time a short-sleeve jacket over a little girl bikini and the same shorts were exceptable.
After a long car ride, the Tower came in sight. A sigh of relief escaped Starfire's lips. Acting like the road was a racetrack, she took the the Z-3 all the way to 80.
Star was surprised to see the whole team at the front of the Tower. Parking the car was even harder than it seemed because Cyborg's car took up 2 parking spots. She woke up Rose hoping that she was happy with her nap.
