Ok so I just want to clear a couple things up. So when mysterious person kisses Starfire, it's not like kissy, kissy, oh look a pretty girl who's passed out and looks like she could use a kiss, their actually pumping air into her lungs. So that she can breathe and you know, won't die a wet and slow and painful death. So sorry if that was a little confusing, but you probably only would have understood that if you had seen Water World J Oh also, if you support Raven and Beast Boy as a couple, you should really check out Lileipad's story "Balance of nature." It's really good.

Robin and Aqua Lad sat around Starfires bed, trying to make sure that she was in stable condition. Raven was doing her best to prepare an antidote for traegon lifriate.

"Thank you , I have no idea if we would have saved her in time," admitted Robin.

"I don't know what I would do either," he said.

Starfires body began to jolt up and down. Robin looked at the heart rate meter. It was going off the charts. Something was happening to Starfire.

"Robin, go get Raven!" Commanded Aqua Lad.

He rushed out of the room running as fast as he could. He went into Ravens room, disobeying the most important rule of the tower: Non one is to ever enter Ravens room under any circumstances. The door slid open.

"Raven, something's wrong with Starfire! Get the antidote we have to hurry," said Robin.

"But it's, it's not ready," stammered Raven.

"I don't care come on," Robin commanded.

Raven threw the rest of the ingredients into the bowl, not even eyeballing the ingredients. She put it inside of the bowling and it liquefied, melting and hissing inside of the bowl. As she ran, she tried not to spill it, but it was hard not to.

They got into the room, Agua Lad was holding Starfires hand, and caressed it, trying to calm her down. The veins all over her body had run black. The intense jolting had stopped, but her glowing skin was absolutely pale. Whiter than a ghosts. She had gone intensely warm though. A fever spiked above that of a normal humans. Ravens hands went shaky, Robin couldn't allow her to spill the final bits of the antidote. He took the bowl from her hands, and dumped it into her mouth. Starfires body went still. The fever stopped, it drop down. Her body went ice cold, they looked at the heart rate monitor, her heart rate dropped to a straight line.

Raven put a hand on Robins shoulder, then quickly pulled it away.

"Robin, I'm so sorry," said Raven.

"I need some time alone," said Robin

"Robin if you need anyone," said Aqua Lad.

"I said, I need some time alone!" Robin yelled.

Raven went outside the room, followed by Aqua Lad. They went into the living room where Cyborg and Beast Boy was sitting on the couch talking. Beast Boy stood up when he saw Ravens face. He went forward, and instantly embraced her. Tears were streaming down her face. But these tears weren't silent. These tears, they were loud. She didn't care who heard her, ever since her and Starfire had switched bodies, they'd had a connection.

She went to the couch and instantly collapsed on top of it. She put her face in her hands. Beast Boy, Cyborg, and Aqua Lad sat down next to her and tried to comfort her.

Back in the room, Robin sat on a chair next to the bed, and put his hands on his face and cried. Then he stood up. He felt another rush of anger. Much like the one that he'd felt when he thought it was Beast Boys fault Starfire had disappeared. He walked to the wall of the medical room that he was in with Starfire, and he felt an immense surge of power. He sent his fist crashing into the wall. He pulled it back out, his hand covered in a white dust.

He walked back to the chair by her bedside and sat down.

"I remember the first day that I met you Starfire. Every single detail. You know, at first I was a little bit afraid. Then you kissed me. I have to admit, I was taken by surprise. I didn't know that an alien girl could kiss that well. Then, we fought those freaky lizard things. We became a team that day. Then on that seemingly terrible night, when I had to take that horrible Barbie doll Kitty to prom, and you beat her in a floor length dress. That was really amazing. Then that slow dance in the end. That was amazing. I had no idea that I could dance like that.

Then when Ravens nightmares and fears took over the tower. You were so brave, and you were so strong. I just, I wish I could be as strong as you. Starfire, is it so hard for me to just want you in secret. Maybe if I'd told you before. Maybe you wouldn't be dead. We could have been on that board together. I wish that I could have died in your place. I don't want to live another day without you. If I had died, than. Actually maybe I wouldn't have died. Slade just wanted you, he didn't want me. Maybe, maybe. Maybe if it were me that the wave hit, then well. Maybe we would all still be alive.

I can finally understand what Beast Boy felt when Terra was turned to stone," Robin cried softly.

"Now I am going to show you something that no one has ever seen before.

He walked over to the table. His hand rose to his hair and he pushed his bangs away from his face. Starfires finger twitched but he didn't see it. A small spike appeared on the heart rate monitor, again he saw nothing. Robin moved his hand to the corner of his mask. He hesitated after a second, and then began to remove it. A small corner had come up off of his skin. Then, her heart rate spiked. This time, the machine entered it in as a large enough line to think it meant something. The monitor beeped.

Robin stopped taking off his mask and moved it back down onto his face, where it belonged. Another spike, and another, and another. He looked down at her chest, it was steadily moving up and down. Back at the heart rate monitor. It was stimulating a regular heartbeat. He put two of his fingers beneath her nose. He was able to feel light breath. Then he out his head to her chest, the machine truly wasn't lying. He could feel her heart beating inside of her. Somehow, Starfire was alive.

Robin began to lightly shake her from side to side. He heard a light groan. He began to shake her more vigorously. He heard a louder groan. He sat her up, and began to gently move her forward and back. Her eyes opened.

"Ikte Rumamaka! Trrafadolegar!" Yelled Starfire.

"Starfire!" Robin rejoiced.

"Targafa!" She said. He was able to sense rejoice in her voice.

"I'm going to go and get Raven!" he said.

He gave her a fast hug and then left the room. When he got into the screening room, he was laughing hysterically with joy. But his eyes met Ravens at the wrong moment.

"Robin what is wrong with you?" yelled Beast Boy.

"Starfire is. Starfire, haha," he said, choking with his laughter.

He was bounding up and down, but no one had any idea what was going on. One of Cyborgs hands clenched into a fist. Starfire was his younger sister. Not literally but she was the younger sister he always wanted, and needed.

"Yo Rob! This is not cool! We all know that Starfire is dead, now get out of here unless you're going to pay the proper respect," growled Cyborg.

"Starfire isn't dead" he said.

Raven looked up. She was crying tears that weren't clear but dark. But not like mascara and not like the kind from before. These were tears of mourning.

"Look. Either Robins gone crazy, or Starfires alive. I'm guessing that he's gone crazy, but I'm going to check and make sure that something. That Starfire is still. I'm going to go and, I'm going to go and have a moment alone with Starfire. Have Robin explain to you what's going on," said Aqua Lad.

He got up off of the couch and shot Robin a sharp an disrespectful look. As he left, he was able to hear the sounds of laughing through muffled words. He heard crying. He heard a loud thud, and assumed that Cyborg had punched him. He honestly didn't care though. Since the day he had met Starfire, he had felt, something different. Something beautiful, as beautiful as the ocean. But he knew about Robins feelings for her and hid his away at the very bottom of his soul. Robin was a friend. He didn't want that to go away. Even if it meant letting a strange beautiful and mysterious girl go.

He went into the room, and she was sitting up on the bed. Just as Robin had left her (even though Aqua Lad didn't know that.) Most importantly, Starfire was alive. He sat down next to her.

"Trafiero jarkocel!" She said in glee.

"Starfire?" He asked.

"Gratartu tryoley lefring zar Tameranian," She tried to explain.

"I don't understand," he said, making gestures with his hands.

Starfire took his hands and gently guided them into his lap. He looked at her and she smiled a large and beautiful smile.

"Gratar coorlect ucreadatch harletofarme," she said making simple and more accurate hand gestures.

He seemed to understand. He looked her, and they had an unwritten understanding.

"Can you ever speak English again? Wait, what happened?" He said in confusion.

She gestured for him to come a bit closer to her. He did as she asked.

"Jarkofante herolophicargo roctima zurezto artel kenzobarres," she said

In human this translated into "on my planet we can learn any language through lip to lip contact. The antidote made me forget all languages but Tameranian." But he didn't understand what she had said.

She gently put a hand on his shoulder. He was a little confused, but he was able to feeling something in that touch. He went with what Starfire was doing, he had absolutely no idea what was going on, but followed Starfires lead never the less. Knowing that even in a different language, she wouldn't ever try to hurt him.

Even though he understood absolutely nothing of what was going on, he knew that that sentence, and that body language meant something more than just talking. She was talking in the international language that everybody understood.

He put his hand around her neck, and she pulled him forward. He followed this like all else, and then there lips met. Although it was just a transferring of the language to Starfire, it meant the world to him. He moved his hand upward, and it slid onto her cheek.

At which moment, Robin and the rest of the Titans just so happened to be standing in the doorway. But Starfire and Aqua Lad were completely oblivious to all the rest of their surroundings. Starfire followed his lead in shifting their mouth positions, in all different directions. Starfire had no idea what she was doing, but she wanted to acquire all of the knowledge of the English language. When she had kissed Robin, it was so fast she only got 98% of it. But other than the knowledge, Robin was the only other thing that she could think about.

Starfire was the first to pull away. She had gotten all of the knowledge that she needed from this being. She took her hand off of his shoulder and he dropped hers from her cheek.

"Starfire?" Said Robin in disgust and astonishment.

"Friends! I have awoken, and he has helped regain all of the knowledge of this planet that I need," Starfire said with glee.

"Well this is awkward," said Aqua Lad rubbing the back of his neck in a clumsy way.

"Yeah no kidding, I think that I'm gonna go, before this gets even more awkward," said Beast Boy backing out of the door and turning to his room.

"I'm going to go and review formulas and meditate. This is just way too much to handle," said Raven.

"Um, I have to go and be somewhere," said Cyborg.

"Cyborg don't leave on this joyous occasion, where do you have to be that's so important?," asked Starfire.

"Umm I have to go and oil something," said Cyborg backing away.

"Oil what," asked Starfire.

"Um I have to go and oil BB's toothbrush, so bye!" He said then turned and ran.

"And you, I want you out of the Tower, now" said Robin.

"Robin, that was nothing, it was just," mustered Aqua Lad.

"I said out!" Yelled Robin clenching his fists.

"Ok well, I am sorry Starfire, but I apparently have to go. Contact me in some way or form when you get the chance," he said tripping out of the room.

"And you Starfire, what was that?" He asked getting close to her, but not romantically, violently.

"Robin it was simply a transferal of," said Starfire.

"A transferal of what? You know what? Just save it. I'm sick of hearing all of your lies!" he yelled.

"Robin I," she mustered again then getting cut off yet again.

"I said, I was sick of your lies!" Robin fumed. In a flush of anger, he raised his hand high, and slapped Starfire hard across the left cheek.

"Robin. At this moment, I realize something important. You are the cruelest villain I have ever met," met said Starfire as she turned and left the room, tears running down her face.

"Starfire, I'm sorry," he said Softly.

Robin sat in the chair, and put his hands to his face. He just lost the only girl that he had ever loved.
