Heyheyhey! I'm trying to update more often but I mite be hard because come school time I will be busy pretty much everyday but I will try to work on chapters during breaks at school and at home and what not…
I know Starfire and self-mutilation is a little ways out there but hey! This is a story cant always be what you expect them to be! Meh onwards! To Starfire's past!
"What!" Robin bellowed. Raven didn't respond but merely sat across from Ryan and stared silently, expecting an explanation.
(A/n here comes the typical story of the star bolts and what not…I do not know who came up with this or even if its real but this story line isn't my idea)
"Right before Starfire fled to earth Tamaran had been at war with the Gordanian's for eons. One night the Psion's, the Gordanian's army, charged into the royal palace and took Starfire and our sister Blackfire. They were used for experiments. We Tamaranians rely on sunlight to keep energized. The Gordanian's wanted to find a way to use that to great weapons. Starfire and Blackfire gained abilities during the experiment. The star bolts. Blackfire had begun to understand her powers faster than Starfire's since hers were simpler. Starfire's had been more complicated. Blackfire had helped Starfire escape and they returned to Tamaran. Blackfire seemed to enjoy her newly acquired powers and soon left home and turned into the rebel she is today. While Starfire had stayed back and fell into depression. She had been plagued and haunted by memories and nightmares of what had happened and began to hurt herself. I found out by chance and helped her heal but I always had my doubts that she really stopped. When rumours that the Psion's were coming back for Starfire for some reason I told her to flee and she came here. We though the war was over but the Gordanian's are acting up again and I came to make sure Starfire was alright" Ryan explained
"What makes Starfire so special?" Raven asked intrigued. She had always prided herself as someone who could read someone but she had never quite clearly been able to understand how Starfire really was.
"The Gordanian's managed to seal some sort of power within Starfire. Blackfire was also supposed to have some of this power but her body had rejected it. For some reason Starfire had accepted the power. If she learns how to harness that she could be the most powerful weapon. The key to ruling the world or destroying it. Galfore has come to believe that the power will control Starfire. Lead her down a path of darkness." Ryan answered. Robin sat silently reflecting on what Slade had said but decided to push it aside for now.
"Then we got to find Starfire dudes, have no fear Ryan. We will have the little lady safe in no time" Cyborg said. Beastboy nodded his head in agreement and bounced excitedly in his spot on the couch. Robin also nodded his head in agreement. With that the Titans all spilt up to search. Ryan not knowing Jump city well followed Robin.
When Starfire awoke her head was pounding. When she opened her eyes she realized that it was sometime in the middle of the night for the moon was in the middle of the sky and glowed brilliantly. Shaking her head Starfire closed her eyes and tried to remember what happened.
She had been going to find someone to talk to when someone covered her mouth- Starfire never even finished her thoughts before she sat up and was immediately on guard.
"Calm down there Cutie. You will only hurt yourself by doing that" said an almost mechanical voice. Starfire's eyes illuminated in the darkness searching for the offender who had taken her. She saw something move in the shadows but before she had a chance to shoot at it something came over eyes.
"Calm down. I would not want to use anything unnecessary to keep you from attacking." Another voice said. The person who had stated that uncovered her eyes and in front of her she saw Slade and Red X.
Starfire pushed herself backwards only succeeding in falling off the bed. "What do you want!" Starfire growled out.
Slade merely smirked before chanting some words out that Starfire didn't recognize. Before she could say anything a green pattern began to take over her body.
Starfire looked down in horror. It was just lines, some sort of design that was glowing green and was outlined in black. (A/n think Atlantis…the cartoon movie when they use the crystal to light up the floor…that kinda design) She had only once seen these before and that was when she had been with the Gordanian's. Horrified more Starfire crawled backwards until she backed herself into a corner. Screaming out in terror as the glowing grew Starfire curled into the fetal position. The last thing she saw before she fell unconscious was a smirking Slade and an emotionless Red X.
