---------------------------------------------------

The beast was unlike anything they boys ever faced before. It stood over 8 feet tall. His body was shaped of a scorpions with a stinger on his tail. The beast had ferocious fangs that could rip through steel. His skin was as hard as a rock.

"This thing must have a weakness!" Robin yelled. Their attacks were useless. Cyborg blasted the beast with everything he had and the beast looked like he never felt them. Beast Boy transformed to every animal he could think of and attacked the monster but there was no effect on it. Robin hit and threw everything he had at the monster. They inflicted no pain on him. Cyborg lasted the beast with his plasma shot. Beast boy tried to tackle the scorpion and Robin used his stick to hit the beast. The beast continued to move on, as if he didn't notice the three teen age boys who were trying their best to slay him.

As if on cue, the girls arrived. Starfire blasted a star bolt at the gigantic scorpion from hell, making the beast step back slightly. The beast hit his attacker with his tail and Starfire flew across the buildings, only to be caught by Raven. Starfire looked up at her savior and then over to the boys. Raven looked over to the beast to see her friends trying to fight off the beast. 'He's not from here is he?' Raven thought. The beast grabbed Cyborg with his claw and threw him at Robin and Beast boy.

"You ok?" Raven asked Starfire. Starfire nodded and smiled. She flew over to the monster. Starfire fired starbolts at the scorpion. The scorpion swung its claws at Sarfire and hit her on the stomach. She landed on the ground and as she got up, she was struck by the scorpions stinger on the neck. She screamed from the pain that the stinger caused. The creature retracted its stinger from Starfire's neck and turned its back on her and began to wreak havoc on the city. She fired more star bolts at the creature, then she started to feel light headed and fainted. Raven quickly flew to Starfires side and caught her before she reached the ground. Raven held Starfire as she positioned themselves on the ground.

"Starfire?" Raven began to shake the red head awake. "No you gotta stay awake..." Raven said as she tried her best to not cry. Starfire struggled to keep her eyes open but sleep soon overcame her. "WHAT DID YOU DO??!!!" Raven yelled. Raven flew towards the monster and began to throw things at it with her telepathic powers. Her eyes began to change color, changing from ocean blue to pure yellow. Her nails started to grow and her hair grew slightly longer. The demonic scorpion came after her. It swung it's claws at her and she avoided them easily. She got an opening and ran towards the scorpion and struck it on the face with her fist. Her fist pierced through the scorpion, slicing it in half. The demons body fell apart, revealing a transformed Raven. Raven was drenched from head to toe with the scorpions blood. Starfire and the boys witnessed the display of power by Raven and was clearly amazed.

"Ra....ven...." Starfire said as she struggled to walk towards the bloody Raven. Raven hurried to Starfire's side and carried the girl in her arms. Raven watched as Starfire fell asleep in her arms. She flew up in the sky, heading for the tower.

"What the hell was that?" Cyborg asked no one in particular. Beast boy looked at the dead demon with his jaw on the floor. Robin had his 'deep in thought' look. The police soon came in to clean up the mess.

"I don't know what that was, but I don't like it." Robin said as he walked away from the scene.

Raven entered Starfire's room and carefully placed unconscious red head on the bed. Starfire had a fever and was clearly in pain. Raven tried to heal the girl but her angelic powers were not working. 'I don't understand it...' Raven was at Starfire's side holding her hand. 'Why aren't my powers working?' Raven stood up and walked over to Starfire's vanity mirror. She looked at her face to see that her features have not changed back. She still had pure yellow eyes and her hair and nails were still longer then normal. She looked at her hands to see her finger nails were red. She couldn't understand what was going on. 'Why did I change all of a sudden?' Raven thought as she looked at Starfire. She walked over to the ailing girl and kissed her on the forehead. She exited the room and headed for the examination room. She turned on the computer and tried to figure out a cure for Starfire. 'I can't find anything!!!' exclaimed Raven. Raven curled her finger and made a fist. She then punched the computer desk, breaking it in half. 'I knew it... that thing wasn't from this dimension... I can't find anything on it on this computer.' Raven thought.

"Raven?" Beast boy and Cyborg went into the computer room, concern showing from their faces. Raven only looked back at them with despare in her yellow eyes. She exited the computer room and headed back to Starfire's room. Raven opened the door and walked besides Starfire's bed. She kneeled beside Starfire and held her hand.

Raven held the other girls hand and stroked it gently. Starfire seemed to be getting worser and worser by the minute. Raven didn't know what to do. She felt helpless. 'I would do anything to take this pain away form you Star. I... care for you, a lot.' Raven sighed and closed her eyes. She opened them when Starfire's hand moved from her grip. She saw Starfire, tossing and turning in her bed. Her alien blood seemed to be fighting off the poison. On instinct, Raven grabbed Starfire's hand with her own. She kept a tight grip on it and began to stroke it. Starfire seemed to calm to down a little bit. So to seal the deal, Raven bent down and placed a kiss on Starfire's cheek. Starfire instantly stopped fidgeting. A small smile crept on Raven's face but it was soon replaced by a sad look.

Raven reluctantly let go of Starfire and exited the door. She headed for her room. Raven entered ehr room and went to her book shelves. Raven browsed through her large book selection. She searched for some books to read to the ailing Starfire. Finally finding some books, Raven hurried back to Starfire's room.

"I hope you can hear me Star," Raven said as she grabbed a chair and pulled it next to Starfire's bed. She opened a book and began to read. She continued to read the book while she gazed at the sleeping red head.
