CHAPTER V: Finale: The Tradgedy of Love (Part I)

A figured lay on a bed in the darkness, weeping. Fists were clenched to the sheets, the slim nude frame caressed by them. "Why...?" Raven managed to choke out. "I was happy for once in my life... It was all ruined by society... " This was an injustice. Blood drenched the sheets around her wrist where open wound lay. A pain that she could control... That's what it was... Something she could control in her life, the twisted, out of control spiral of agony and misery that was her pathetic life.

-Roof of Titan Tower-

A fireball rushed through the sky with a tremendous force, heading straight towards a girl standing alone on the roof. The girl had a big, childish grin on her face as she watched the ball of fire rush at her. The flaming ball stopped inches from her face, the flames dissipating to show a muscular figure of an alien man. "Young Starfire. You have grown."

The girl rose up to hug the massive man, nuzzling againts her chest. "Grand Ruler. It is pleasant to see you again! I am filled with such exitement!" She clamped her hands together, beaming. "Please allow me to show you to your quarters."

The hulking man nodded. "Alright." Starfire took his hand, leading him into the building and into a room that had been decorated quite elegant. "These are human decorations?" The man asked, with a tint of disgust, but he smiled anyways. He could never hurt the girl's feelings, she was like his daughter, yet she had turned out very beautiful... What if...?

-Raven's room-

Blue orbs stared at the blank ceiling, nude frame in a fetal position. Her life was falling apart, one frail piece at a time. She couldn't handle this. She longed for the touch of her beloved Starfire, unwilling to live without her. She could end it so easily. She drifted into a sleep of horrors and misery, that she had had since the night Star had left her.

She rolled in bed, eyes shut tightly. "No... No! I don't want to..." Tears dripped down her frigid cheeks, the horrid dream sending her further down the path of self destruction.

-The following morning...-

Starfire was awake, cooking an assortment of odd looking objects that didn't appear to be edible, the hulking Grand Rule watching the television in awe, unable to figure out it worked while BeastBoy and the newly arrived Cyborg played video games, fingers moving wildly in attack combos on the contollers.

"Booyah!" Cyborg stood, grinning, as BeastBoy sat crying next to him. "I still got it!" Robin was sitting next to the stereo wearing a pair of headphones, bobbing his head to music. Everyone was there except for Raven, which noone was really concerned about, she stayed in her room meditating some mornings, so it wasn't unusual.

Soon, the 'breakfast' was ready, Starfire, and the hulking man in a frenzy of eating, the other three staring with anime sweat droplets at the food, afraid to touch it.

"Did it used to be alive?" BeastBoy asked gingerly, eyeing the food suspiciously. "It looks like it might bite back. He dumped it on the floor when Starfire wasn't looking, the other two doing the same, the three quickly exiting.

"Do you wish to see our humble city, Grand Ruler?" Starfire asked politely, hands clasped together.

"Yes, that would be most exellent." The hulking man stood, following the girl as she walked towards the exit, eyeing her matured body. He shouldn't be thinking of the girl like this, she was pratically his daughter. It wasn't even close to being acceptable. The two took to the skies when the left the tower, Starfire ponting out landmarks she thought was important, which were a bit different to what humans would consider so.

The duo landed on a building after a few hours of flying around, Starfire looking up to the man. "Would you be keen on sampling earth food?" The man nodded, and they jumped off the building, flying straight down, wind roaring passed them, the ground coming towards them increasingly faster. The two simultaneously flipped, and stopped before their feet hit the gorund.

-Roof of Titan's Tower-

Raven looked over the edge, down to the sharp rocks. It would be so simple. It would all be over within seconds, and she wouldn't feel a thing. The temptation was overwhelming...
