Mind Games

Chapter 5: The Robbery

Deadstar was high in the air flying around the Park. She couldn't get the image of that frightened woman out of her mind. She didn't know why she had saved her. After all she had to destroy the City and kill people not help them. Dead slowly got back onto the ground and sat down on a bench. She was thinking about Robin and how she had left him when she heard someone call for her. When she got off the bench and turned around she saw him.

"Speak of the devil" she whispered as looked up and saw Robin.

"Star…" he said but was cut off by Dead

"My name isn't Starfire anymore. It's Deadstar" she told him as she looked at him

"Oh" he said. After minutes of uncomfortable silence Robin spoke up. "Why did you leave?" he asked her

"I was tired of being there. I was tired of saving the City and not a thank you was heard from anyone. I was tired of being ignored by you. I was tired of being laughed at just because I'm an alien. I am tired of being here. I just want to leave" she said as she glared at him. "I want to die. I hate being here where I am not wanted and to make this City pay I will destroy it" she said

"Star I never ignored you" he said

"Robin don't lie. I am now your enemy and you have to kill me or be killed. I won't let you pass because you where once my friend. From now on I am your enemy and you will have to fight me" she said as she looked into his eyes as much as she could.

"I am sorry that you think that but I am not going to kill you. You mean something to me" he said

"Have it your way Robin but I will kill you when I have the chance. Bye Robin see you in battle" she said as she flew away with tears in her eyes. When she was in her room she started crying. She cried for herself, she cried for Robin and she cried about the decision she made. After many minutes of crying she finally calmed down. Dead slowly whipped away her tears and got under the covers. The last thought before she fell asleep was I'm sorry Robin.

The next morning

Deadstar woke up by the sound of someone knocking. She slowly got up and dragged her body over to the door. When she opened it she saw Red X there.

"£What is it? I was sleeping" she grumbled

"Slade wants to talk to you" he told her.

"Now?" she asked

"Yes now" he said as he grabbed her arm and pulled her outside. When they reached his office Red slowly knocked and awaited for the signal.

"You may enter" Slade said from the other side. They slowly went inside and saw Slade sitting on his chair looking up at them. "You may leave Red X." he told him. Red X quickly nodded his head and left Deadstar alone with Slade. "You may be wondering why I brought you here so early in the morning am I right?" he asked

"Yes" she said

"Well I believe that you are ready to go on missions with me and Red X. I told Red X to help you train here and make you feel comfortable. Now in your room you will find your new outfit for when we need to go on missions. I want you to wear it and meet up with Red X outside. Your first assignment is to rob a jewellery shop. That will be a test. Now go on" he instructed. She quickly nodded her head and left for her room. When she reached it she saw her new outfit on her bed. She quickly put it on and looked at herself in the mirror. It was the same outfit she had with the Teen Titans but it was all black. On her belt she had a huge red S written on it. She slowly brushed her hair and after she was ready she met up with Red X. She saw him there with his outfit and mask on.

"Great you're ready. Come on lets go. You fly I'll run" he told her as he started running. She quickly took off after him. Not long after they reached the jewellery shop. They quickly got inside and looked around. There where people buying things. She looked over at Red and he nodded his head a yes. "This is a stick up. Get down on the floor and you won't be hurt" Red X yelled causing screams from the women. Dead quickly got out her bag and started filling the bag with jewellery. When she saw a guard trying to call for back up she blasted his communicator away.

"You try that again and you'll be dead" she said as her eyes started to glow bright green. After a few minutes the door opened and she saw the Titans looking at her in shock.

"Star what are you doing?" asked BB

"I am not Starfire anymore. You can call me Deadstar and what I am doing here is obvious but I know that your brain is the size of a peanut but let me explain. I'm here to rob this shop and if you stand in my way I will kill you" she said with a smirk.

"Come on Dead let's go" said Red X as he ran to the door but was blocked by Cyborg

"You're not going anywhere" he told him as he crossed his arms

"Cyborg get away from our exit and I won't hurt you" Deadstar warned

"Sorry I can't do that and I know you wouldn't do that" he told her as he looked into her eyes

"I'm sorry but you asked for it" she said as she punched him sending him flying through the wall. She quickly grabbed her bag and flew off followed by Red X. When she looked back down she saw them looking up at her with a shock in there eyes. She quickly shook her head and continued on her way.
