Before we begin, some facts!
This is my first story!
Starfire is Koriandr
Kal El (superman) is of course borrowed from Superman. And in this story Krypton still exists. Superman/Kal El still has all his superman powers.
Right now the story describes Starfire's life before the Titans, but she will meet the Titans soon!
Chapter 1
Pain and Memories
"AHHHHH!"
Her scream rang painfully through the dark halls. Such horrible pain... As they shocked her with another bolt of energy, painful memories ran played in her head. Childhood memories of her and Blackfire...
"Look Starfire! The sunset on Tamaran...Is it not beautiful?"
"Yes..." Starfire looked thoughtfully at the orange-red glow. "Dear sister, do you think maybe someday, we can go to the Sun?"
"Hmm... Maybe I can take you there. If you really want to go so much."
"I do! I would love to watch the sunset on the Sun!"
"Little sister, you cannot watch the sunset while you are on the Sun," Blackfire had said after laughing at her younger sister's silly, yet adorable comment.
"But I'll take you there," Blackfire had said to her. "I promise."
Starfire tried desperately to keep herself from reliving any more memories, but it was to no avail. Her whole life was flashing by.
She was in the royal court, summoned by the king of Tamaran, her father. She looked a little nervous, unsure if she should speak first or not. She had never been summoned to the royal court before. This was very formal. The kind of people who were summoned to the royal court were advisors, bishops, and political leaders from other planets. The king's daughters were never summoned to the royal court. They were too young to take part in universal politics, so they spent their days studying the Tamaranian law, history, music, and such things.
"Koriandr," came a solemn yet loving voice.
"Father," Starfire said, not sure if she was allowed to call him that in this occasion. Whatever that occasion might be, she did not know. The king had addressed her as Koriandr, her royal name, instead of Starfire. This had to mean something.
"Well, it is final. The planetary council has decided. You will take my throne when I pass."
Starfire was bewildered.
... What? Me? But Blackfire is the heir... She is my older sister! What is going on here?
Star almost blurted all this out, but stopped immediately when she saw her father looking at her expectedly.
"Yes, father," was all she could mutter.
"You are dismissed." That was an order.
Starfire felt faint. It was too much responsibility. Nobody said that she was the heir. She always assumed it was Blackfire, the eldest.
The king looked at the confused look on his beloved daughter's face and gave her a small reassuring smile.
Star smiled back at the respected man who was her father, but confusion was storming in her head. The decision was so subtle. Starfire hadn't even considered herself heir to the throne.
Two days later, Starfire was taken away from her usual studies, taken out of the classes Blackfire and she were in. She had wondered why Blackfire wasn't taken out too. She hadn't seen her since... since being summoned to the royal court. She was to take different courses now. Her father had called it a "special training."
A special training... so she would be fit to be queen. That had to be it.
