Heya, hiya, howya doin'? This is this is my favie! Well, she is my favorite character, but, anywhosiewhatsis, here's Starfire's story! PS, the story started on Friday, and now it's Sunday.

Chapter Six: Star light my Fire

Victor smiled and went into her living room (no one ever really knocked at Kori's house).

Starfire smiled, reveling her striate (sp?) white teeth. She had long, red hair that looked almost crimson, light tan skin, and large, bright green eyes.

"I need the old couch moved to the front so the garbage man can come by later and pick it up, please," she asked, sweetly. No matter what she asked for, she always said please.

"No problem!" And Cyborg picked up the old, raggedy couch a few inches off the floor and struggled pulling it through the doorway.

"Do you need some help?" she asked, kindly.

"No!" he grunted. "I'm fine!" And he finally got the couch out the door and began heading towards the driveway.

"Kori!" grumbled a voice from the other room.

"Coming, Galfor!" And she sprinted into the bedroom. "Yes?"

"Who were you talking to?"

"Victor. Remember? He came to move the couch."

"Oh, yes." Then, her guardian began to cough.

Galfor was Kori's uncle. They had moved from the country Tamaran (A/N yes, I made it into a country) when she was about three. Her parents had died just before and her uncle had been proclaimed her guardian. He took Kori and her sister, Koma, to America, but against his will. He claimed that the Anders' family had royal blood in them, and they were far above this "mistake for a country" (A/N God bless America!). So it goes without saying he didn't quite approve of Kori's friends. But, he had allowed them, though barely. He didn't think a "garage band" was fit for the young girl, but it was her parent's wishes that Kori grew up normal in America, and that also meant her being able to choose her own friends. But that didn't mean he had to like them.

He was able to keep Kori in line, but Koma was a different story. Although Kori was only three when they moved, Koma was five, and used to a privileged life. She hated chores, and soon refused to do them. She then made trouble at school, and soon, didn't go to school. She's been to Juvie twice and is half way to Mexico right now for all Galfor knew. And, because of her Koma's disobedience or brilliance as Kori liked to put it, her sister ended up doing everything at home, seeing that Galfor had to work to support himself and his niece.

Because of her responsibilities, she never really had time to learn an instrument, but Beastboy taught her how to keep a beat with a tambourine or bongo's. But, what she lacked in instrumental talent, she made up for in her singing. Man, could that girl sing!

Recently, though, Galfor had gotten very ill, and Kori needed to take care of him, as well as the chores, and school, and now she was working at the local Pizza Place every Saturday night (when her parents said they wanted a "normal" life for her, they meant every possible means of a normal teenaged life, which includes working). She asked Galfor several times, but he always refused to accept money from Dick or Bruce. He was too proud to resort to charity.

"Would you like some water?" she asked, placing her delicate hand on his large forehead.

"No, I'm fine," he grumbled and he forced a smile.

She sweetly smiled back and went to the kitchen to finish the dishes.

He's too stubborn for his own good, she thought. Dick would be more than happy to lend use some money…

Just then, her mind drifted to her best friend.

She remembered the first time she met him. She was nine. She was in fourth grade and these boys were making fun of her because her skin had an orange hue to it. They were calling her things like "carrot" and "veggie girl". She was about ready to cry when Dick showed up.

"Don't make fun of her," he demanded.

"Or you'll do what?" said a boy everyone called "Red X".

"You don't want to know," he said, threateningly.

"Maybe I do," he said. He pushed him and all the boys began to cheer on X.

"Don't push me," he warned.

He pushed him

Suddenly, Dick did an air-born back-flip that planted his foot in his jaw. When Dick landed back on his feet, Red X was clutching his jaw and the other boys were staring in awe. Then, Dick bluffed, making them scatter.

He smiled and went over to Kori.

"You OK?" he asked.

"Yeah," she said, wide-eyed. "How did you do that?"

"I used to be in a circus," he explained.

"Oh."

"I'm Dick Grayson."

"Kori Anders"

Crash!

Kori snapped out of her day-dream and picked up the broken pieces of dish that she dropped on the floor.

"Oh, sorry, Star. I didn't mean to startle you."

"That's OK, Cyborg."

"So, any way, I'll see you tonight at practice?"

"Yeah."

"'K. Bye!"

Ok, that's the last back-story. Wadja think? Now we're gonna go into the plot. Oh, and in case you're confused;
