discliamer:i dont own teen titans...

Author's note

Hey well i never got those 10 reviews so chapters will be update once or twice a month..really depends how i feel. On another note am going to try and rewrite abit of the prev chapters making them silghtly more serious and such but if you have already read them theres not too much point in reading them again as no major events or plots twists will be changed, ill just add a few more conversations and give more of a character view point and stuff but if you think that thats important well then go for it!.

attention readers:

guys i realy need some feedback if its getting abit too out of character tell me (but they are going to get out of character cause thats the whole point but i want to remain some little parts of each character) but the plain is that they will get alittle bit more like there old selfs as the story goes on, but even if you flame me i need some input!.

side note: am really sorry for any spelling errors but i do write my work on word pad and i cant spell check it.

thoughts: "blah blah"

flashbacks: i remember when i was young

chapter 6-a new life but old habits

The young girl shook her head and tugged on her black tight leather skirt and fiddle with the straps of her black bikini top before then stepping out from behind the curtain before a room filled full of lustful eyes.

Her bright emerald eyes scanned the room as she struck her starting pose with her arms in the air and her hips turned out to the side. She let out a breathe that she didn't even knew she held and with the beat of a new rock song starting she knew it was time to start the rounte.

To all the men in the room the woman on the stage was a goddess, her fiery crimson hair, tanned skin and emerald pools too exotic to be moral. However if you look closer you could see the pain which rested deep within those emerald eyes but they weren't there to stare at her eyes.

When the music started the red head immediately started dancing, her hands gliding over her curves while gyrating her slim hips seductively. She did the same dance every single time, adding more flirtous parts when she noticed rich men take out their wallets.

It was the only fucking way rich men would release their greedy, death grips from their money, and if that was the only way, then so be it.

The only way she could dance was when she shut off her mind, she often thought of it as a release, she didn't dance for the men but for her emotions with every move she she lashing out.This didn't mean that she particularly liked it but she had to live.

The red head then began to change her dance to the rhyme and lifted her hands over her head and ran them through her hair while sexily moving her hips as the man watched hypnotise by her beauty and the passion of her moves, "stupid bastards" she thought as she made her way to the pole.

With amazingly gymnastic skill for her profession the red head grabbed hold of the pole and swung herself around in an hypnotic motion not much unlike a artistic dancer.

Her long beautiful scarlet hair swung around with her movements and as she slowly slide upside down from the pole, her hair the first to touch the cold black fall.

Her hot skin soon followed and she laid down on the floor with one arm covering her face and the other stretched out above her head. Her locks sprawled around her head like a fallen angel as her legs were stilled upwardly tangled with the pole.

The lights dimmed and a applause filled the room but the person to which their applause was for couldn't hear it. The red head laid still her chest slowly returning to its normal breathing pattern and her once closed emerald eyes parted but they were glossed over for her mind was else where.

The stage lights now completely shut off and the red head peeled her body from the floor untangling her legs and walked towards the back of the stage disappearing through a black oak door.

The once great warrior princess of tameran sat down in her dressing room before a large mirror. The years had changed her greatly. Her hair was longer,thicker and curled at the ends, her lips were poutyer, her cheek bones raised and her once orange skin had paled into a dark tan due to the long years away from the tameran sun.

But what changed most of all were her emerald eyes, they were deeper and yet darker the joy which made her eyes once sparkle had vanished and a cold iciness had replaced it.

Her soft tanned small hand reached out to touch her own image but only recoiled once her index finger felt the cold glass.

A knock on the door inturpted her thoughts followed by the voice a girl no older then her. " hey kori whats taking you so long, i thought we were going to get a coffe together?".

The red head now known as kori coughed to clear her throat and slowly stood up from her chair and walked over to her backpack while replying to the girl. "erm yeah Natsuko i don't think i can make it..some stuff has come up"

An annoying sign was heard through the door by Natsuko "awww kori theres always stuff with you..you know if i wasn't so adorable i would think you didn't like me"

Kori rolled her eyes and let out a rare quiet laugh at natsuko's immaturity. "natsuko you know your my friend but..."

Natsuko on the other side of the door pouted out her lower lip and folded her arms over her chest "ohh don't give me your "buts" kori Anders, look ill talk to you when you get your ass out of there, i look like a mental case talking through this door"

Kori lips curled into a small smile as she quickly pulled on a pair on blue jeans over her long legs and yanked down a white tight fitting t-shirt. As she headed for the door she pause to look in the mirror at her reflection and cocked her head to the side she then reached for a hair tie hidden in her back pocket and tied her hair into a high pony tail.

"Kori! hurry up" natsuko shouted through the oak door causing kori to wince at the sound of her voice.

Kori hurried up out of the dressing room putting on her short brown leather jacket and grabbing her backpack.

As soon as Kori opened the door she was greeted by a slightly displeased natsuko, the main tail tell sign was that her cheeks had gone bright red.

"Sorry friend Natsuko i guess my mind kinda wanders off every now and then" kori let out a breath of relief when she said those words, but they seemed to do the trick as Natsuko bursted into a smile and embraced kori.

"Aww kor i was just teasing i get so bored at the bar with auntie Rino" Natsuko gave kori one more tight squeeze before letting go her arms dropped from kori torso and to her hand which she now drag Kori by to the bar.

As Natsuko dragged Kori's hand everything seemed to go in slow motion and they moved passed the crowd.

Natsuko just like Kori was a dancer although Natsuko it didn't seemed to bother her as much it did Kori. Natsuko was an orphan taken in by the bar owner Rino or as Natsuko called her auntie Rino.

Rino wasn't a kind woman nor a bad one she was just making a living although Kori always found it haunting how she sat behind the bar on a wooden stole puffing her cigarette through its long black holder in silence as her yellow eyes drifted around her surroundings.

But the best and the worst thing about working at the bar was Natsuko for she reminded Kori so much of what she used to be, full of joy, hope and happiness. Natsuko was also pretty in a angelic way with her long blonde hair, pale skin and bright blue eyes ironic looks for someone who work in a place like this.

Once they reached the bar the time returned to normal for Kori and as always Rino was there sat behind the bar smoking with her eyes fixed on Kori.

Rino stretched out her slightly wrinkled hand and slid it across the bar towards kori and as she lifted her hand a bunch of notes were reveled. Kori in return nodded and took the notes from the bar and placed it into her back pocket.

Rino moves her pipe to the side with her lips to speak "tips are included Kori, tonight was good business as always when you perform".

Kori nodded again "thank you" and then turned to leave but Natsuko grabbed her arm.with pleading eyes Natsuko looked up at Kori "your not leaving already are you?"

Kori let a small smile grace her face " i have to go and do some..er...stuff Natsuko". A smirky grin landed on Natsuko's face as she leaned over to nudge Kori "and so by stuff..you mean that your meeting some hot guy"

Kori paused for a moment and smirked "well he is a guy"

Natsuko replied with a smile although the disappointment in her eyes was visible and she watched Kori leave through the door.

A frown landed upon Natsuko forehead as she turned to Auntie Rino "she always looks so sad auntie..no matter how hard i try i can never cheer her up".

Auntie Rino took another puff of her pipe a took a moment to pause before she answered " that one has got something to hide...i can't place my finger on it but..shes different to us Natsuko..and i have a feeling that she will be wont be here for long".

Natsuko's eyes widen as she turned to face Auntie rino "what do you mean ?".

Auntie Rino slowly closed her eyes as she answered this time "ever since that day i found her dirty and half starved in that alley..she always had that look in her eyes.."

Natsuko's eyebrows then knotted in confusion and frustration and she slammed her hands on the bar to catch Auntie Rino's attention " what look?..your talking nonsense"

Auntie Rino's eyes snapped open and she look at Natsuko in anger " shush girl.." her bony hand then lifted it to point at the stage "its your turn to dance so stop asking stupid questions".

Natsuko let out a sign and walked towards the dressing room in a huff while auntie Rino's eyes drifted off again lost in thought while running paper money through her fingers.

5mins later...

The charcoal sky was filled with flickering stars, the beauty was a great contrast to festering streets below which Kori walked upon.Her eyes scanned the area as her head moves from side to side.

Once she was satisfied with the lack of people around her, she arched a brow and quickly side stepped into an dark alley. Dropping her backpack to the dirty floor she kneeled down and began to pull out some dark material from her bag while smirking to herself in thought "time for me to meet my date"

Just outside Gotham...

Somewhere far away on the 7th floor of the Wayne enterprises penthouses a young man stood in the middle a hot musty room. The room was meant for training and 3 walls were painted a sickly white with the 4 wall being made entirely of glass, looking out upon the dazzling lights of a busy city at night.

The young man with ebony hair once know as Robin leader of the late teen titans stood still in the centre of the room dressed in the white pants of a karate GI his hair collapsed over his face as sweat poured down from his bare chest and face dripping to the floor as his chest heaved.

Within a instant Robin's head flick up and he got back into stance as he angrily jumped into the air and kicked out in a series of whirling kicks, before landing on the ground and sweeping down the floor, ducking an imaginary enemy.

Sweating hard, he tried to block his mind from his memories of his past life in the tower but he failed and his eyes darkened as he remembered the once joyful tamerean girl, "starfire".

He shook his head violently to rid himself of his thoughts and then went back to practiced his martial arts, kicking an invisible person and ducking, trying to combine as many difficult moves together as he possibly could.

Martial Arts was all that mattered to him ever since...that night. It took away all the memories, all the emotions and feelings that made him feel weak.

It was all Robin had become and so he had succumbed to training, night after night, practicing to be the best martial artist there was, so he could never fail anyone again.

Robin then jutted a punch out with a ferociousness and shut his eyes tightly as he did a spiral spin with a kick. Once he landed he jumped into the air and kicked out, falling to the ground softly with a roll.

He stayed couched down with his hands and one knee resting on the floor. His head hung down as two salty droplets fell to the ground "it doesn't matter how hard i try...it's never going to bring her back..."

He let go of his pose and stumbled to the floor his back hitting hard against the wall. His brows knotted in rage and as her name shot out from his throat "STAAAARFIRE!..." he slammed his fist into the floor making the cement dent and crack with impact.

A light breath left his lips as the blood from his now torn bandaged hand started to fill up the dent in the floor, to him it felt like a small release feeling the thick warm sticky substance pooling around his fingers.

He looked to his hand a let out a crazed chuckle as he spoke to him self "ahh well i guess its fighting with one hand for another week..", he then paused for a moment then smirked "well i always like a chanellenge".

As his body started to relax slumped against the wall his eyes started to close which cause Robin's body to tense up again and his eyes to fly open. "i guess its that time again" he thought.

Robin slowly lifted up his unharmed hand and reach into the pocket of his karate GI and took out a very small tube filled with white power. his hand began to shake but he managed to lift it to his right nostril and take a deep intake of air which caused him to suck up the power.

As he place the tube back into his pocket a small trickle of blood ran down his nose but with his now free hand he wipe the blood away smearing it along the back of his hand.

Still slump against the wall his now gazed over eyes stared out through the glass at the sparkling lights of the city.

Back to Kori...

The dark night reached it's peak as the full moon sat in the middle of the sky, its dim milky light casting down upon the world below it.

Kori leaped from building to building for although her ability of flight had left her all those years ago her gymnastic skills and inhuman strength still remained and even on occasion her starbolts. A frown appeared upon her face as she remembered how she regained her strength.

flash back 4 years...

A 15 year old Kori had soon started working the bar after her meeting with Rino when she was at her lowest point and due to her being to young to be a dancer Rino had given her a job as cleaner.Kori started to sweep around the bar after the last beautiful dancer finished her performance. Her eyes were casted down and focused on her sweeping as the night started to draw to a close and the last remaining punters started to leave.

Kori then walked behind the bar to take out a bucket of dirty ice cube water. Her arms struggled to hold the heavy bucket and little bit of water spilled out as she dragged the bucket to the exit.

Kori's senses cleared significantly as the cold night air abruptly enveloped her and with what strength she had she threw the water down the alley letting a huff escape her lips.

"hey johnny i say that girl was giving me the eye" a stupid drunk shouted to his friend as they started walking down the back alley which Kori was currently standing in.

The other drunk laughed at his friend, they were both no older then 20 johnny with brown hair and eyes while his shouting friend Koji had black hair and grey eyes.

Koji spoke again "yeah yeah like that red head over there giving me the eye" Koji pointed to Kori and stumbled over to her " Hey baby".

The air was now thoroughly scented with cigarette smoke and cheap beer, from the two men. She wrinkled her nose up involuntarily at the new thick smells and timidly took a step back.

Koji reached out and grabbed her arm pull up against his chest while breathing her alcohol smelling breath over her face " hey sweety am not going to hurt you, you look far to innocent for that"

Kori pulled her face as far back from him as she could and spoke in her still broken in English "i do not understand what it is you wish?..is it that you have the desire to be friends"

Koji smirked "oh yeah i have the desire for something..." He then reached out to caress her face "i never knew you were so straight forward though girly" and with that he pressed Kori's body against his and forced his lips against hers as his friend watched on.

Kori's eyes flew open as she felt him harden against her, sure she was naive but she knew what that meant. Kori's thoughts started to go wild with rage as she struggled against him "how dare he touch me in this way! i am still a tamerean warrior. i refuse to be treated in such a manner"

Koji then forced his tongue threw her lips which allow Kori to let out a loud scream for a second before his tongue tangled with hers. A enough was enough and what with ever strength Kori had she pulled back her leg and kicked him in the shin causing him to leap back from her.

Koji's eyes narrowed in rage and even when johnny tried to pull him out of the alley he pushed him away.

Suddenly His tone suddenly became much harsher. "You stupid girls are all the same. You think you're so sweet and you use your fake innocent looks to twist guys like me around your little fingers. Well think again you stupid slut, I'm not that dumb. I'm going to teach you sly little whores a lesson."

Koji swing his fist forward to Kori's face but with lightening speed Kori's warrior instincts took over and she grabbed Koji's arm with such unnatural strength that the bone snapped. He stumbled back holding his arm and looking at Kori with hate "you stupid bitch.."

Koji and now his friend johnny were ready to leap upon a shaken Kori and teach her a rough lesson but the wooden door which Kori's back was to swung open with Rino madly screaming and waving around a baseball bat with a scared Natsuko behind her holding a frying pan. "AAAJARRRR" she wailed as if it was a type of battle cry.

The to men turn around and ran down the alley as they heard sirens in the distance leaving Rino shouting at the top of her lungs.

Kori collapsed to the floor and tried to hold down her sobs in the back of her throat. Seeing the danger had cleared Rino dropped the baseball bat and hurried over to Kori and lifted her chin up and made her look her in the eyes.

"Silly girl...you should be more careful for there will always be a shadow to this world's light" Rino spoken with an even tone then took Kori's hand and with Natsuko lead her back into the bar.

"silly girl" Kori thought, and then it clicked "that woman in black..thats what she called me...she was right i am weak...but in time i shall do the changing of that... because i have to be strong like Robin was...Robin"

End of flash back ...

And Kori did change that, although her strength was pretty unpredictable she still trained hard at night fighting crime in an attempt to find slade.

4 years later she hadn't come any closer, sure there had been trails but they all lead to dead ends but tonight she hoped that would change. And as for her star bolts well they were are unpredictable now as her strength was back then and only extreme emotions could unlock them...but of course that didn't stop this tamerean warrior.

To all she was now known as RedStar she thought a change of name was necessary so that slade with never know that she was on to him, but also Kori felt that deep within her heart Starfire died long ago..on the night by the docks.

She wore all black now her outfit consisted of a pair of long black boots, low rise leather pants and a crop top turtle neck which sleves ended at her elbows (author note:hey you guys know what a crop top is right, its like a top which shows most of your torso , but now because she had two life styles she wore a black eye mask and also her hair was tied in a ponytail high upon her head.

RedStar leap into the air flipping and then landing gracefully on the ground with her right hand touching the street floor. But the moment she landed the sound of applause cut through the crisp nights air as a darken figure stepped out from the darkness.

The figure wore and black body covering outfit with a short black cape hanging losing from his shoulders and a ivory skull mask with an crimson x fixed upon his face. His voice was smooth and charming as he spoke " ahh beautiful entrance as always Star..am touched how you always try and impress me"

He stopped clapping as his hands fell to his sides and he took another step forward still oozing charm "but trust me Cutie you impressed me the first time i laid eyes on your enchanting young face...and years have only made you more...enticing" he let out a satisfied brief laugh after those words left his mouth, but RedStar could feel the smirk that he was holding under his mask.

Slowly she stood up with her back still facing Red x and she clenched her fists as she felt her temper starting to snap, and she clenched her teeth hard, before looking over her shoulder at him and speaking "just tell me where he is..."
