"DUDE! Your name is coriander? That's like, the British word for mustard! AHAHAHA!" Beast Boy blurted out. Raven went and slapped him across the back of his head.
"Shut it Gar!" She shot back.
Beast Boy sat on the couch grumbling, his arms crossed, and looking grumpy. He hated his name. Who names their kid Garfield? Maybe a cat, but your kid? As he thought about this, Robin asked Star to continue her story. She nodded in agreement and continued.
-On Tameran 16 years ago-
A young Tamerainian boy named Karras, about the age of three, walked up to the baby. He gave it a funny look. Why did his father bring him here? He was very oblivious as to what was going on around him.
"Do you think we will go to war?" questioned Luand'r to the Lord of southern Tameran.
"I am not sure. The Gordainians have been conquering many of the planets in the Vegan system. Tameran could end up being one of them" Lord Nefert the ruler of southern Tameran said.
"Surely there must be a way to make peace! We have never caused them any harm!" Myand'r said frantically.
"No, we have not, but the Gordainians have a lust for power. They believe the more planets they control the more power they will have." Replied Lord Nefert.
"That is not true! How can you have power with no one to control!" Luand'r cried.
"They do not kill off every individual on the planet! They leave many. They only kill the rulers… They often take the female heirs as prisoners." He said waiting to hear their reaction.
"Komand'r!" Luand'r cried not wanting her daughter to be enslaved.
"She would not be taken." Nefert said.
"What are you saying?" Myand'r glared at the southern leader.
"She is too deformed. Her hair and eyes are black. She does not resemble a Natural Tamerainian." Nefert stated.
"You are insulting my child!" Luand'r accused.
"Am I? Or am I simply stating what you all know is true! You also should know that they would take Koriand'r as a substitute! All the priests say she will be powerful! And that is just what they desire! … power…" Nefert said.
Myand'r and Luand'r held each other tight at the thought of losing their almost two years of age daughter. As they were embracing each other they heard a baby crying from the room next to them. Luand'r flew from her chair to help her baby.
While the adults were discussing about war, Karras grew quite curious about the infant sleeping in the roknar. Roknar was the Tamerainian form of a crib or cradle. He noticed the baby had very red hair. His hair was a brownish red, as were most Tamerainian heads. The baby girl was only about year younger.
He wondered what would happen if he poked it. He reached into the Roknar and poked the baby on the forehead. She only stirred. He poked her again, harder this time.
"WAKE UP!" he said. The baby's eyes popped open and her nose wrinkled. She opened her mouth and cried. Karras got confused and stepped away.
At that moment a large male Tamerainian came in and started soothing the crying girl. He was followed by a five year-old girl with black hair and eyes. Karras was more curious about this girl. She looked strange. Why weren't her eyes green? Her hair was too dark too. Her eyes also had a feature in them that scared him. She seemed to be holding a lot of hate and anger for a child. Karras was of course to young to know what he saw in her eyes, but he still noticed it.
"Galfore! You promised to help me control my flying!" The black haired girl pouted.
"I must take care of your sister now Koma!" He answered.
That was when Luand'r and Myand'r ran in.
Starfire interrupted her story there. "I do not actually remember that happening… but that was what I was told happened." She then continued.
-On Tameran 13 years ago-
A four year-old Starfire ran through the palace walls being chased. She screamed and tried to lift herself off the ground. She couldn't! She was too sacred he would catch her! She ran faster only to have her arm grabbed. Her captor began to laugh and started to tickle her.
The young princess's laughter filled the entire hall. The palace workers' attention was turned to the young girl and the large man 'torturing' her. They smiled. Galfore was a good K'norfka for Koriand'r. He loved her like his own child.
"Daughter come! We have someone for you to meet!" The queen called interrupting their tickle fight. Kori looked at Galfore with sad eyes. He smiled at her and nodded her toward her mother. Kori trotted over and followed her mother out of the room.
They walked into a large room with many tables and other types of furniture. Her mother led her to a throne like object which her father was sitting in. He smiled at his daughter and motioned her to come over to him. He picked her up and set her on his lap.
"My treasure, this is Lord Nefert. He is the leader of the southern region of Tameran. This is his son, the heir." He motioned to a small boy about the age of six and pushed Kori toward him. "His name is Karras. You may go play while we converse, Kori." The young girl nodded and walked with Karras out of the room.
"My name is Kori!" said Starfire.
"That is short for Koriand'r?" He asked.
She nodded. "Don't you have a big sister?" Karras asked.
"I'm right here!" Said a seven year old Blackfire, trying to be flirty.
"I'm Komand'r, but you can call me Koma!" She said batting her eyelashes.
"Eww!" Said Karras. A girl was flirting with him! He grabbed Kori's wrist and they ran away from her 'cootie filled sister'. They giggled as they ran. When they reached the garden they stopped and plopped to the ground. They giggled more as they laid on the floor.
Kori reached over and hugged Karras tight. "I've never had a friend my age before!" She said.
Karras didn't like girls hugging him. They were icky! But something about this one was different. He hesitantly hugged her back. "I have tons of friends back home!"
"Really?" Kori asked letting go.
"Yeah! I have a friend named Ph'yzon. He's from a different planet."
"Glorious! Perhaps one day I can meet him?"
He shrugged. "I don't know" he answered.
From behind the adults watched them. They all had one thought on their minds. The two should marry! It was the perfect plan to bring long term peace between the two 'Nations'. Komand'r would rule and the two nations would be united! It would work wonderfully!
They hoped Karras would find Koriand'r attractive! After all! What did the opinion of a female matter?
TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
