Chapter 8:

Starfire walked down the hall with a tray of food for the prisoner. It consisted of a traditional Tamaranian meal, a simple salad, and some water. Robin had said that maybe Danny would enjoy some of her planet's food (In the observation room, Robin waited eagerly to catch Danny's first actual emotion when he had a taste of the awful alien food)

She entered the cell with a smile.

"Foe Phantom, diner is… ready?" Starfire looked around the room when she didn't see Danny in his usual spot at the table; she then spotted him on the bed, he had his eyes closed. Starfire stared at him curiously. She put the tray down on to the table and walked towards him cautiously.

She reached the bed and stared at him, he was… puzzling, other villains that they had kept in that room would not have been caught dead sleeping while in there, it had something to do with their pride or ego, something like that.

But this foe, had not tried to escape, or at least not in any way that had been very noticeable. He seemed… nice, what had made him become evil? Starfire sighed and decided to wake him up. She nudged him gently by his shoulder. His eyes opened sleepily.

Starfire stared at him in awe, more specifically at his sapphire eyes, they were so innocent looking, and yet so sad. He sat up slowly staring blankly ahead, he reminded Starfire quite a lot of foe Puppet King's puppets, like a small puppet following his strings.

He turned his head to face Starfire, his eyes looking at her curiously, Starfire shook herself and put on her best "no sympathy for the prisoner"act.

"Foe Phantom, your meal is ready." She said, Phantom turned towards the food and then to her, he nodded and went over to the the table, he sat down and stared at the food blankly. Starfire frowned, and sat down in front of him. He stared down at the food in a matter that made her think he didn't like it, but then, he slowly grabbed the fork and began to eat the food in the most automatic matter that she had ever seen.

Then her frown deepened, this foe, was very strange, he seemed to be really... how had Robin said? Oh yes! Spacey, he moved very slowly, Robin had told the team that if this was how he was in battle, then he would be easy to defeat, but Starfire saw something different. Most people thought that Starfire was just the stupid and innocent one in the group, but actually, she was much smarter than she looked, a lot more observant than any of the humans and her own team mates would ever think her to be, of course, she was still very innocent, but that's beside the topic.

As she was very observant, she had noticed, that everything that foe Phantom did resembled the movements of a programmed machine, the way he was currently eating for example, it never varied, lift the fork, put it down on the food, bring it up to his mouth, it didn't matter if he did not manage to get anything on the fork, it would always go to his mouth.

Her musings her stopped when she noticed that foe Phantom was staring at her. His sapphire eyes stared at her intently, no emotion showed in them, and it unnerved her slightly, she avoided his gaze for a few seconds, but when it became apparent he was not going to seize his intent stare she decided to try to start a conversation.

"Foe Phantom... are you not enjoying your meal?" She asked, foe Phantom tilted his head and blinked, then he lowered his eyes slightly.

"Oh... quite actually, we do not have this sort of food back at home." He said. Starfire instantly sat up.

"Home? How is this home of yours?" She asked, he lowered his gaze further.

"What do you mean to ask?" Foe Phantom asked.

"How is your home? Is it full of friends like mine?" Starfire asked, Phantom frowned.

"Friends?" Foe Phantom tilted his head, he frowned slightly.

"Yes, friends, people who care for you and love you and protect you! Have you got any Foe Phantom?" Starfire asked, Foe Phantom's frown had turned into a look of understanding.

"I believe I understand the term, though, you seem to have a different concept of the word." Foe Phantom said, Starfire frowned.

"What is it that you mean?" She asked, Foe Phantom lowered his eyes again, he shook his head and dug his fork into the food again, Starfire narrowed her eyes, she clenched her fists and stood up abruptly, shaking the table. She slammed her hands on the table.

"Why do you always do that? Why is it that every time one inquires something you "space out"?" Starfire said, Foe Phantom looked startled, his sapphire eyes wide and his mouth slightly ajar, but then he smiled at her.

"I suppose you could say that I do not answer your questions, because I see no merit to it
