Here's my update. Thanks for all the wonderful reviews.

Starfire heard Trigon's order. Starfire couldn't believe it. 'Raven wouldn't kill me... would she?' Starfire asked herself. ' She did say she hates me...' Starfire reminded herself. 'But she wouldn't kill me...' Starfire reasoned with herself. Starfire could see Raven's hand pointed at her. She could see Raven's hand start to glow a bright yellow. She looked into Raven's eyes. They were filled with doubt and fear.
Starfire saw Raven close her eyes. 'She's going to kill me... she hates me that much.' Starfire thought to herself. She felt tears streaming down her face. 'I'm going to be killed by the one I love the most...' Starfire sighed in defeat. She could see Raven's hand growing brighter. Starfire just sat there, unable to move from the beating she took from Trigon, and the shock of Raven's decision. Starfire awaited her fate.
Trigon watched the two girls. A malicious smile was on his face. Raven was going to do it. Raven was going to seal her fate and she was going to be by Trigons side forever.
Raven fired the beam and Starfire shut her eyes. After a few seconds, Starfire opened her eyes. She was still alive. She turned behind her and saw that Raven had fired at a building near her. Starfire looked into Raven's black eyes. In them, Starfire could see forgiveness.
"I can't do it..." Raven whispered.
"You've taken so many lives... what's one more?" Trigon snickering as he raised an inquisitive eye brow at Raven.
"I can't take her life..." Raven stated. She looked at Trigon. She gazed into Trigon's amber eyes and Trigon gazed into her own.
"Raven! What the hell are you doing? KILL HER NOW DAMN IT!" Trigon yelled.
"I can't do.. I won't." Raven said. Trigon approached Raven.
"Do it Raven and end this. She hurt you remember?" Trigon reminded Raven. Raven looked at Starfire. She saw Starfire's green eyes. They were glistening with so much hope and happiness. 'No matter how much she hurt me, I could never harm her much less kill her.' Raven admitted to herself. Raven remained silent. "Do it!" Trigon continued to yell. Minutes passed and Trigon flew towards Raven and punched Raven. He continued to attack Raven furiously. Raven didn't bother fighting back, nor evading the attacks. She felt as though she deserved it. "You're an idiot!" Trigon yelled out as he continued to beat his child. "You think she'll accept you now? Don't you remember what you've been doing these past three and a half milleniums?" Trigon whispered callously in Raven's ear. Raven remained silent and accepted Trigons beating. Trigon kicked Raven on her ribs and sent her flying. Raven landed a few feet away form Starfire. Trigon walked towards Raven and grabbed Raven's grayish locks. He pulled on Ravens hair.
Starfire watched as Raven was being beaten by Trigon. She wanted to help Raven but she couldn't move. She was still in pain from Trigon's beating. All she could do was watch and try to regain her strength. 'She's not even doing anything. Why isn't Raven fighting back?' Starfire asked herself as she continued to watch Trigon and Raven. She saw Trigon kick Raven. Raven landed near Starfire. She watched as Trigon approached Raven. Trigon pulled on Raven's hair. Starfire could see the blood dripping from Raven's lip. Raven was badly injured.
"You still have a chance." Trigon told Raven. "Kill her!" Trigon commanded. Raven turned and looked at Starfire. Raven was in pain, just like Starfire. Raven was bleeding from top and bottom. "Seal your fate. Fall farther in the darkness Raven. Let it consume your every being." Trigon said.
"I wont..." Raven whispered. Determination in her voice. Raven and Starfire gazed at each other. Small smiles plastered on their faces. 'I don't care if I die... Starfire's worth it.' Raven thought in her head.
"Raven..." Starfire whispered as she looked at Raven's smile. 'She doesn't hate me...' Starfire thought. The girls heard Trigon roar.
"You dare defy me your own FATHER!" Trigon yelled. Raven remained silent. Trigon tightened his grip on Raven's head and lifted Raven up from the ground. He tossed Raven up in the air and followed after Raven.
'So he's Trigon?' Starfire thought in her head. She remembered the talk she had with Raven. Raven had told her about Trigon, the man who killed Raven's mother. 'They're working together?' Starfire asked herself. 'Have they been together all this time?' Starfire thought. She couldn't believe that Raven would ever choose to work with Trigon. So many more questions about Raven invaded Starfire's mind. 'What has she been doing for the past 3,500 years? Has she changed that much?' Starfire asked herself.
Trigon continued to beat Raven mercilessly and Raven did nothing. Trigon struck Raven's face and kicked the girl on her stomach, sending her back down on the ground. Trigon flew back down and landed. He faced Raven and extended his hand towards Raven. A bright orange beam emitted from Trigon red hand.
"You disappointed me Raven. I thought you would rule by my side but I see that won't happen." Trigon stated. "After I kill you... I will kill her." Trigon said as he looked Starfire. Trigon fired the beam at Raven.
Raven looked at Starfire. 'No... she can't die.' Starfire and Raven thought at the same time. Both girls looked at each other. 'I won't let her die...' Raven thought in her head. She could feel her strength returning and the pain lessening as she looked at Starfire's eyes.
'I'll be damned if I let this monster kill Raven.' Starfire told herself. She could feel her energy returning to her as she looked at Raven's black orbs. The girls communicated through their eyes. Starfire's hands started to glow green. Raven got up from the ground, reached for her sword behind her and deflected Trigon's beam. Starfire then flew up in the air and fired a starbolt at Trigon, hitting the red demon on his chest.
"I was going to make your deaths quick and painless but I changed my mind." Trigon told Raven and Starfire. Trigon got in a fighting stance as Raven and Starfire flew towards him. Trigon avoided Raven's kick and Starfire's fist.
Raven swung her sword at Trigon and cut Trigon's shoulder. Raven swung fist at Trigon and hit him in the face. Starfire took the opening and kicked Trigon. Trigon took three steps backwards. He then saw Starfire's fist headed for his face. He used his demonic speed and grabbed Starfire's fist. He kept a tight grip on Starfire's wrist. Starfire tried to kick Trigon but Trigon grabbed her foot. Trigon then threw Starfire. Raven caught Starfire in midair.
"Thanks..." Starfire told Raven as she felt Raven's strong arms around her. Raven nodded back at Starfire as she wrapped her arms around Starfire's slender waist. They could feel a comforting warmth spread through out their body. All the pain that they were feeling vanished as the girls held each other. Unfortunately, the girls broke apart to avoid Trigon's attack.
Starfire and Raven continued to evade Trigon's attacks. Trigon managed to hit them and they managed to hit Trigon back. Starfire fired a starbolt at Trigon and Trigon fired an energy beam at it. A big explosion occured. When the smoke cleared Trigon could see that the girl's weren't there anymore. Raven and Starfire took Trigon by surprise and kicked Trigon on his back.
Trigon then spun around and managed to kick Raven. Raven was thrown back by the ferocity of the kick. Starfire then chased after Raven but was stopped when Trigon kicked her, hitting on her face. Trigon then punched Starfire. Starfire managed to hit Trigon's face. Raven hit a brick wall. Raven then got up quickly and flew towards Trigon and Starfire. Trigon saw Raven heading for them and grabbed Starfire's leg. He swung Starfire and threw her at Raven. Starfire hit Raven and the two fell back down on the ground, causing Raven drop her sword.
"You tried to put up a fight..." Trigon said. "but did you really think you'd win?" Trigon asked as the girls tired to get up. Trigon then extended his hand and fired a beam at the two girls. The two girls couldn't get up. They looked at each other and sighed. Starfire reached for Raven's hand and took it into her own. Raven intertwined their fingers. They stared deep into each other's as they awaited their fate. The beam was coming closer and closer. Both girls closed their eyes and continued to hold each other's hand. They could no longer fight. Just then, the beam was deflected by a white light. The girls opened their eyes. Raven saw Renseia standing in front of them.
"I won't let you hurt them." Renseia stated as she unsheathed her sword and got in a fighting stance.
"Oh and who the hell are you?" Trigon asked.
"I'm just someone who's looking for revenge." Renseia stated as she glared at Trigon. Trigon merely shrugged and ran towards Renseia.
