Robin's Little Distraction
They both rushed outside to the island. The tranquil place, that their home stood on. Starfire looked at Robin. "Robin?"
He looked over at her, instantly remembering that only Cyborg had the coordinates to the crime scene. "Aw...man..." The Boy Wonder ran his fingers through his spiky, gelled up hair. "I forgot..."
"What?"
"The crime scene. The only person who has the coordinates is Cyborg... We lost our chance Starfire. We can't help Beast Boy."
"Only I may be of assistance to..." The alien girl, looked into Robin's mask, once more. It was pulling her in. "you... Friend..."
Robin smiled at the way Starfire had addressed him. She called him friend and that's all he needed, to hear, "Starfire..."
"Yes?"
He grabbed her by the hands, "Can you...promise me something?"
Her eyes tilted towards the mossy stones by the ocean blue, "I cannot..." He began to rub the tops of hand, so calmly. She almost forgot why she declined. She went with her minds thoughts, anyway. "I am...sorry?"
"Starfire... It's an easy thing to promise. You have to promise me, that..." She looked back up into his mask of beautiful mystery. "You have to promise me...that you will never...ever do that...again."
"I..." He waited for a response and he hoped that he'd get the one he wanted. The one he thought she knew in her heart. "I- I... can...can't..."
His eyes went wide again. Why does she keep doing this to him? She acts the part of his girlfriend, but she keeps declining to everything he says. He wished he was back in Tokyo. Back when they fought Brushogun. Back to when they were kissing in the rain...
Starfire rose a fist in the air, a starbolt lit around it. "Starfire, stop... You're not..." He rose his hands in defense. "I thought you and I were..."
"The friends..?" Her glowing green eyes, closed. Her Starbolt faded and she fell sobbing in his arms...
All she wanted to do was apologize. Her day was not going as great as she originally planned. "I am..."
He shushed her and looked deep into the horizon. Time was flying by, way too fast and it already sunset.
The girl who fought Beast Boy was more than just angry. She was furious at Cyborg. She thought nothing of showing it, though. Her childish looks and actions, covered her choice of sinister magenta pink eyes like a veil, "Run all you like..."
She smiled at the guy who kept blasting her, with his sonic cannon. The guy who kept missing, reloading, and who was slowly dying. His power-cell was getting weak and he knew it. Where was Starfire and Robin, when he needed them most?
"Look, Poisonoire, I don't know who you are or who you think you are! But-"
She dropped on top of a damaged car, "You don't have anyone to help you... It's one-on-one, isn't it?" Her eyes glanced around the parking lot. "Tricky..."
The unknown girl giggled and ran off. She was about Beast Boy's age, too. She was very quick and very hard to catch...
A whisper flew through Cyborg's ears, "Come and play Hide and Seek!"
He looked around. There was no one. Cyborg was starting to get a bit worried, both for his life and why Starfire and Robin weren't here, yet. "It's fun! Just find me and you win!"
"Yeah, but where are ya!"
"Somewhere you'd never expect... It's called mind-contact, you funny dummy!"
"Wait... how does this game work, and what's mind-contact?"
"I talk to you in your mind... You... Come find me..."
A resounding giggle was heard... Then, the setting changed to nothing but the Towers Hallways. "Poisonoire! How did you-"
"I have access to your memories... duh!" He heard running. "You're still a funny dummy to me!"
An echoing gasp was heard, "That should be your Nickname! It's perfect..."
