I'm Moving On

I, Robin, was sitting at my desk in my office daydreaming of my best friend/crush Starfire, who is a princess on her home planet (but she will always be my princess on Earth), when I should have been working on my reports for the villains that we had defeated in the last few days. I finally pushed my chair away from my desk and looked at the clock on the wall. It read 11:52 p.m. so I got up to go to my room and get a few hours of sleep for the night. I had just turned in the direction of my room when I suddenly heard soft music coming from somewhere in the tower. I had followed the sound to the source and found myself outside of the training room. I had gently opened the door and went inside the room. I was surprised, say to the least, at the view of Starfire, wearing a purple nightgown and slippers with her hair put into a lose braid that framed her face just right, dancing across the room with flawless movements.

"You are a wonderful dancer, Star." I tell her calmly walking up to her, taking her hand in mine, leading her to a seat, and gently pull her into the seat so she can cool off a bit.

"Thank you for the complement, Friend Robin." She tells me in her sweet voice, which is music to my ears.

"Is there something you need to tell me, Star?" I asked in a soft voice because I could tell that she was upset for some reason. I had prepared myself to hear that Beast Boy had pulled another prank on her even though I had ordered him not pull them on her ever again after the first time he did it to her, but her real answer shocked me half to death.

"I keep seeing visions of my time with the Gordanians, Robin." She tells me and I pull her closer to me to hold her as she was crying really hard about it.

Someone knocked on the door and waited for me to say to enter the room.

"You can come in the room." I yelled to them through the door. The door was pushed open and in comes our friend Raven.

"I have felt a problem with someone in the tower." Raven told me in a monotone voice and I knew that it was bad because Raven had felt it.

"How did you find this fact out, Raven?" I asked her calmly so I did not upset Starfire anymore.

"I was mediating a few minutes ago and felt it. I had thought that Starfire was acting a little off earlier so I decided to come find her. Why is Starfire crying in your arms, Robin?" Raven told me in her monotone voice. I told her everything that had taken place tonight.

"I have a spell that will free her from these visions that she can see, but she will have to stay in my room for a little while. I had almost forgot that Blackfire is coming here to see Starfire tomorrow too, Robin." She told me calmly and softly so we did not wake up Starfire who had fallen asleep while we were talking about her problem. I let Raven take Starfire to her room so she could do the spell and I went to my room to sleep after saying good night to them. I had decided that it would be best not to tell Starfire that her sister Blackfire was coming to see her tomorrow.
