Part 1
8pm. Titan Tower...
-My friends, I'll go get some pizza -Starfire said
-Just don't ask to get mustard on all of them please -Robin replied
-Uh.. sure... -the tameranian replied.
The alien teenager flew towards the pizza place, though something called her attention, what seemed to be a small meteor crashed in a mountain top near the city, curious she flew towards it, to her surprise there was a capsule o what was left of it laying there, it was obviously open, cautiously the girl landed.
-It's not from Tameran... wonder where it came from... HELLO? I'M HERE TO HELP! -she yelled searching for the passenger or passengers of the strange vessel.
Unknown to her, someone was watching her, through his helmet the creature examined the alien teenager and after a few moments found her suitable of being a new trophy.
-HELLO! I CAN HELP YOU! I...
Starfire noticed three red dots right on her chest, even for her speed things went on too fast, as she raised her sight to see the origin of the lights a blast erupted from a nearby tree, she was able to move though just enough to avoid a fatal hit, the blast hit her right shoulder leaving her uniform torn and her skin baddly burned. Her scream was the only thing heard for a few seconds, she got up unable to move her right arm, scared, she started to look around blasting at anything she thought could be her attacker, her fear increased when she tried to find her T-Comm and remembered that it was on her night table back at T-Tower, her next choice was to fly back at the tower and get help, but as she attempted to fly a metalic arrow struck her left leg and the cable attached to it forced her brutally to the ground, using her eye blasts she was able to cut the part that was attached to the cable, meanwhile at the tower...
-Where's Starfire? It's 11pm already -Cyborg asked.
-I have been trying to contact her for the last hour and she's not responding -added Robin
-She won't - Raven appeared with Starfire's T-Comm in her hand. - When I passed in front of her room I heard you calling, went in and found it on her night table.
-Guys... she never made it to the pizza place... Mr. Sambini told me she never came to pick up the order... -said Beast Boy
Gizmo appeared in the main screen.
-HOW DARE YOU? TELL ME HOW DID YOU MANAGED TO GET INTO THE HIVE'S COMMUNICATION SY
-WHERE'S STARFIRE? -interrupted Cyborg
-Why do you ask me? We don't have that stupid airhead. -replied Gizmo
-For your own sake I hope you're telling the truth -added Robin
Meanwhile in the mountain Starfire was able to find a cave to hide in, the bleeding in her leg had her boot totally red, ripping a part of her skirt she placed the cloth on her mouth and as she pulled the remaining of the arrow out she blasted the hole with her eyeblasts to cauterize it, the pain was intense but she managed to keep awake, weak and hurt she walked out of the cave, hoping to have enough streght to fly back, as she stepped out, a blast impacted right in front of her, all she felt was the ground disappearing from below her and a minute later her battered body laid twenty meters below her original position, she opened her eyes, her broken ribs made her chest a raging inferno, knowing that her chances to live where few, she decided to take one last try at flying away, this time she was succesful, at T-Tower Robin is at the verge of his nerves.
-3am... the Hive said they don't have her... Where is she... Slade would have told us already...
-Gizmo was correct. I flew to the Hive and interrogated Jinx... the haven't seen -Raven was interrupted
-STARFIRE! -Beast Boy yelled as the door opened and the battered and bruised body of his friend appeared.
Robin ran to her.
-Starfire what happened? Who did this?
-D... Danger... mountain...
Robin stepped back as he received the full weight of the alien teen as she fainted.
Beast Boy was silent as Robin took her to the medical bay followed by Cyborg, he followed moments later, there, Robin was concerned.
-Slade... -Robin said.
-I don't think so. -replied Cyborg
-Why not? -the boy wonder said.
The robot showed him a small piece of metal, it seemed like the tip of somekind of advanced arrow, it had three little tips with what seemed to be empty cavities.
-What is it? -Raven asked.
-Found it on Star's leg... whatever attacked her used a very high tech arrow, it did not only pierced the skin but also had somekind of sedative or poison, Star's alien body survived it, but it was enough to kill anything on this earth in just minutes, also the burns on her shoulder were not caused by anything I have ever seen. The rest are bruises from what I believe was a high fall... and half of her ribs are broken.
-She'll make it... right? -Robin asked
Cyborg glared at the teen laying on a bed surrounded by machines.
-WELL? SHE WILL RIGHT? -Robin yelled pulling his metallic arm.
-I... look Robin... the question here is how did she managed to get here in the first place... her wounds were so severe that she was supposed to be dead... I did all I could... we can only wait... and hope...
-Whomever did this... will pay...
-Robin calm down you
-LEAVE ME ALONE! -Robin yelled pushing Raven aside as he walked out of the medical bay.
-Why didn't you told him about the blood? -Raven asked.
-You saw how he reacted... you wanted me to tell him that she lost so much blood that if she can't produce it back soon, she'll die?
-Blackfire.. -Beast Boy said.
-What? -replied Raven
-Blackfire is her sister... maybe... maybe if we get her here... she could give Star some blood...
Raven glared at Cyborg.
-Let's go to Tameran -he said.
-I'll go with you, Beast Boy make sure nothing happens to Star, if by any chance you see a change on any of the monitors you call Robin right away.
The changeling nodded in agreement. Unknown to them the arrow tip contained something else, something that Cyborg missed when he extracted it, a small tracking device designed to give her attacker the exact position of it's pray. And as Cyborg and Raven left the T-Tower a figure emerged from the water and approached the main gate...
