Wow, so how long has it been guys? I last updated on 3-12-05. Wow. Long time. Well, I'm here now and have dedicated myself to finishing all my stories before the school year ends. So, here I go,
But first, a few notes. One, please DO NOT RESPOND TO THIS STORY (REVIEW) UNTIL IT IS DONE. My mom kinda banned me from this site and if I keep getting all those emails...well, I won't be able to write anymore.
Second, my spelling and grammer has improved greatly. For anyone who was miffed by that, well then, you'll be very happy.
Third, for anyone who is a Rob/Rae fan, I respect that. Please do not review this story by saying THIS SUCKS, or, MAKE THIS ROB/RAE NOW! This is not a Rob/Rae, though that is a sexy couple. I am, however, a total and completely Star and Robin fan.
HERE I GO.

Robin walked into the Silvia's room. The door was wide open, and he didn't feel obligated to knock. It was late, perhaps to late for him to be up. But he had found himself wandering to her room, wondering what she was thinking about. That's all he could think about. This girl, this Kate, this Silvia, had entranced him. She intoxicated him. He knew only the fine details about her yet he still found himself wanting to see her. Wanting to know what she was thinking. He wanted to see her smile and hear her laugh, as she rarely did. He saw her though, sitting inside the door watching the rain fall. Her hands were wrapped around her knees and her head was pulled in close.
"Silvia..." Robin said softly. She didn't look up.
He came over and sat down next to her. They didn't say anything. The rain poured down outside in it's usual pitter-patter rythm.
"Silvia, I'm sorry," Robin said gently. "I'm sorry if I ever did anything to hurt you,"
She turned to look at him, shock and suprise in her eyes. "Don't ever say that. Don't you ever say that you hurt me,"
He stared into those eyes and he remembered so clearly. The eyes that haunted his dreams. "Silvia...I don't regret that night you came to my room,"
She turned back to the window and watched the rain for a moment. "I do..." she said after a moment. "And for that I aplogize. Robin...I've never really felt love before. My own mother didn't even love me. My father didn't either. I'm not capable of feeling love,"
"Yes," He pushed a strand of hair back behind her ear. "You can Silvia. Maybe..." he paused for a second. "Maybe, you could try to feel it with me?"
She was silent. "Robin..."she muttered. "I can't love you,"
She stood up and placed a hand out in the rain. Instantly, scars showed themself and blood trickled down from her fingertips. "I can't love because I am no longer human. I am nothing but a monster. I am a destroyer and a murderer. The rain reveals me for what I am." she pulled her hand back inside. "How can you love something that isn't really there?"
Robin stood up and placed a hand on her shoulder. She shrugged it off and took a few steps away from him. "Silvia, you are really here, and you're no monster. You're confused; you've been hurt. Please, I can help,"
"Help me how?" She exclaimed. "Help me by giving me your kisses? Help me by loving me? That won't change who I am, Robin! No one can change that!"
They stood there for a moment, just staring at each other. Silvia let out a small gasp of frustration and sat down on the end of her bed. "I'm sorry..." she muttered. "That was mean of me to say..."
Robin came and sat next to her, the bed groaning from the extra weight. "Silvia...you've got to trust me. I promise you, somehow we'll stop all this,"
He wrapped his arms around her and held her. Silvia closed her eyes. Sure..., she thought,...but in two more days...it will all be over...
xXxXxXxXxXx
Two days had flown by faster than Silvia could have ever imagined. Time seemed to do that. For both those two days she had done whatever Robin wanted. They had gone to the movies, gone to dinner, gone partying, and even just taken walks around the park. She had even hung out with the rest of the Titans. Her fingers burned though. It was getting close.
"Robin," she said, as they sat on the couch watching TV. "I have to go,"
"Go where?" Robin asked, his attention more on the program.
"I mean go. As in leave forever. As in never come back,"
He clicked the television off and turned to stare at her. "Silvia...what are you talking about?"
She shook her head. What was she thinking? There was no way he'd let her go. She'd come back anyway. There was no way to stop it. There was a pounding on the Titan's door. Silvia's hand flew to her heart. She felt odd. No, why was this happening? The doors burst open and Starfire came walking in.
"I have made the descion not to stay away from my home," she exclaimed.
Robin stood up. "Starfire, you shouldn't-"
"You hurt people,"
They both turned to look at her. Silvia's eyes were completely black and her hands burned. She made her way over to the kitchen and grabbed a knife. "You hurt people, so now I'm going to get you back,"
Starfire took a step backwards. Robin glared at her.
"I told you not to be here," Robin said.
"Robin I-" Starfire stammered. But Silvia lunged. She thrust the knife at Starfire, who reluctantly dodged it.
"No!" Silvia shouted. "You cannot escape,"
She lunged again and this time Robin grabbed her around the waist. "Silvia," he soothed. "Calm down,"
She struggled in his arms. "Let me go!"
Something inside her clicked. Robin...he hurt people all the time. Why didn't he pay for it? In his grasp, she put her hands on his shoulders and pushed her feet forward. He flew backward from the force of her kick and stopped right before the window. But his balance was off and his head was dizzy. He fell backwards, out the large windows.
"Robin!" Starfire exclaimed. Her eyes glowed green and she flew after him, catching him right before he hit the ground. She placed him on the ground where he put his head in his hands. Silvia jumped from the window and landed on the ground, hovering a bit before she landed.
"Now...it's time to die-" she stopped and grabbed her neck. In an instant, her eyes became the soft color they had been before. "Please- must hurt- help me, I don't want to harm you- YOU ALL WILL DIE,"
Robin looked up. He looked at Starfire. "We can't kill her. She can't be killed when she's like this."
He stood up. Silvia lunged at him. Quickly, he grabbed her wrist and flung her to the ground. "Silvia! I know you're in there!" he exclaimed.
She strugged under his grasp then stopped. Her eyes were normal again.
"Please, I know what to do- You'll pay for this!"
She kicked him off of her and walked to the edge of the cliff. (remember, they are outside now) The water below rushed and roared. "No," she screamed at herself, her eyes black. "What are you doing? Destroy! Destroy!" Her eyes became normal. "No, I can't. I can't hurt them! I can't hurt Robin!"
She looked at him and Starfire with pain in her eyes. "I'm- hurt them!- sorry. Forgive me."
She raised the blade to her chest. Robin lurched forward.
"I can't be hurt by other's Robin, but I can hurt myself. I've never had reason to before. I've never loved before, like this."
Before he could get to her, she drove the knife into her own skin. Blood soaked her shirt and skirt. Her eyes went completely normal and she fell to her knees. Instantly, all the scars and bruises appeared on her skin. She became who she really was. A girl, beaten and bruised, until her body gave up and died. With a smile, she fell backwards into the water below. Robin reached out a hand to grab her, but grabbed nothing but air.
"No!" he screamed.
There was a splash, and then, Silvia, was gone.
xXxXxXxXxXxXxXx
"Robin..."
It had been four days since Silvia had died. Robin sat on the couch, watching the TV. "Starfire. I'm sorry for the way I treated you," he said softly.
Starfire shrugged and sat next to him. "It is alright. You were...liking this girl a lot. That is alright,"
"I should have treated you better. I shouldn't have made you leave."
"You had to,"
He turned to her and brushed her cheek with one hand. "Starfire, I have to be honest. I loved Silvia. I always will,"
Starfire nodded. "I know. But, will you perhaps consider that you still owe me the date?"
Robin smiled. "Someday, Starfire, you and I will go out. But right now...it isn't the time,"
Starfire leaned her head against his chest. "Later will be fine,"
Their hands intertwined as they sat on the couch.
AND THAT' S IT. I DIDN'T ACTUALLY PUT THEM TOGETHER AND I DIDN'T SAY NEVER. HOORAH!
