Chapter Ten

Her Life Anew

From his own window the Magistrate watched them leave his ship. A limping guard hobbled into the room. "My Lord, they have escaped."

"Let them. They will soon have nowhere to escape to. Transport." He ordered into a wall comm. They transported the device but instead of it landing on Earth's surface it ended up right behind the Magistrate. He heard it transport into his room and he turned swiftly. He should have know, Starfire had changed the transport coordinates. It gave off a charging noise and lit up in an array of colors. He could only stare at the device for the longest five seconds he had ever known before he saw only a very bright light. Far behind the Titans the Psion flagship easily disintegrated in a blue shockwave. Unscathed the Titans prepared for re-entry and began to head back home.

"Whoa," said Cyborg. They had been rattled somewhat the large shockwave but their primary systems remained unaffected.

"Guys how long till we get back," asked Beast Boy.

"Ten, fifteen minuets," answered Raven. "Why?"

"I need a change of underwear," he said in a chuckle. Robin and Cyborg both put their hands to their foreheads and laughed. Robin expelled the last remnants of his laughter and remembered whom he had curled up in his arms. While Cyborg flew them back through the atmosphere he gazed down at her. She seemed so peaceful and yet so without life or being. He held her tighter and watched as they pushed through the clouds and their home's surface came into view.

BACK AT THE TOWER…………………

After Beast Boy had changed his briefs he excused himself from any and all crime fighting for the rest of the night and shlumped off to bed. Cyborg had taken to redesigning and configuring the attackers they swiped, and in the end they resembled him in his electric blue technology. He finished spray-painting the Titan's insignia on the side of the second one and beamed at their new vehicles.

"Awww yeah baby, my baby has sisters now," he said beaming at the T-Car.

Robin stood looking through the observation window outside of sickbay while Raven examined and healed Starfire's injuries. After conducting the process for little over an hour she walked out of sickbay to give her prognosis.

"Well," said Robin impatiently.

"I know you may not like this Robin"-

"No! I don't want to hear it, don't even tell me what I think your going to say!"

"Robin! She's not dying." Robin calmed himself.

"So what's the matter?"

"The attack the Magistrate did to her was very powerful, and it could have affected her mind greatly." Seeing the Robin was still unclear or unwilling to see what she was talking about Raven elaborated. "She might end up as when you first found her. And this time her damaged memories may just be irreparable." Robin swallowed several times and paced around for a minuet.

"So your saying that there's a chance she won't remember me?"

"Anything, I'm sorry but she may never fully recover." Robin fell into a chair against the wall and leaned his head back. As an empath Raven could tell what they were all feeling at one time and Robin was no exception. She knelt down and gave him a consoling hug. She drew away and gave him one of her rare, only for certain occasions, smiles.

"Go in. Be with her, if ever you two needed anyone; it's both of you and now." Robin nodded and got to his feet. Raven swiftly glided down the hall.

"Raven." She stopped and turned her head. "I never thanked you, Cyborg, and Beast Boy. For coming to get us." She smiled after him.

"Don't mention it." With that she turned back and left Robin alone. He stepped up to the door and slid open to grant him entry. With a distant gaze at Starfire's lying form he hesitantly approached her side as though if he got too close she would turn to dust. He pulled up a chair and sat down next to her. He scanned her from head to toe hoping that when he reached her face he would meet a pair of gorgeous emerald eyes, they were shut tight. He rubbed his chin and let out a sigh.

"Well Star, Raven…….says your gonna be just fine." He didn't know if she could hear him or not. "She was a little worried at first, but brightened up in no time. I never doubted you for a second, I knew you'd pull through. Because………..because you were just fine." He would never admit it, but he felt his own eyes getting watery. He turned his face away afraid se might see him.

"Star I'm not sure if you can hear me, but I wanted to tell you something I probably should have said earlier." He paused for a moment. "I meant what I said, back on the ship just before I fell asleep. I know I was pretty close to a very horrible death, but that doesn't change anything. It hurt, a lot, but I took my mind off of the pain by listening to your voice." He edged closer and grasped her hand. "I've never really been a church going person. What I have seen in my life has made me question whether there really is a God out there. But there's only one explanation for how someone as beautiful as you could have been born. You just joined us Star, you just can't leave!" He coughed out loud and held her hand tightly. Not wanting to see her like this he made a move to leave but stopped when he felt her hand lightly close around his.

"Starfire!" He bent down and indeed felt and heard her breathing. Not having the strength to nod or even open her eyes, she continued to gently hold his hand. He couldn't believe it. She was alive and what's more knew who held her hand. "Don't worry Star, I'm going to look after you." He noticed she was a little cold and so doing he found an extra blanket and covered her up.

THE NEXT MORNING……………………..

The new day's sun shown brightly through Starfire's window. During the night Robin had insisted that she be moved to her room, wanting her to wake up to more cheerful surroundings. She sun breathed gently on her face and she turned her head letting out a content sigh. She slowly opened her eyes and allowed her vision to take its time in coming back to her. Starfire reached up and stretched out her arms while letting out a rested yawn. When she looked back down she saw Robin in a chair next to her bed. He was leaned forward laying his head on the side of her bed, sleeping like a log. She looked at him with a tired smile and had the urge to just go right back to sleep. She reached forward and gently shook him awake.

"Nooo….I use a specific type of hair gel," he mumbled coming out of a dream. Starfire lightly giggled and shook him some more. He finally picked his head up and stared back at her for a moment. "Starfire?"

"Good morning Robin," said Starfire in a carefree voice. He let his head sag in relief then raised it back up.

"Morning Star."

"Are we having the cakes of pan this morning?"

"Whatever you want." Starfire gave him a toothy smile and with effort rose out of bed. She winced slightly at some sore muscles. "Are you alright Star," he asked quickly.

"Oh yes, I am merely feeling the same after effects as when I first challenged the magistrate. Though the first time I did not come out victorious and I am still not sure how I did this time." Robin held out his hand to help her up.

"We've got great friends is all." She took his hand and with his kind assistance stood to her feet. She suddenly found herself loosing her balance and felt the sensation of falling before Robin caught her at the waist but her falling weight pulled him down with her and they landed on her bed.

"Oh my! Robin please forgive me I did not realize how"- She trailed off when she finally noticed the position they were in. Starfire lay on top of Robin with his head flat against the bed. They both stared at each other in a stupefied sort of way. Starfire allowed the weight of her head to carry itself close to Robin's. Robin saved her the trouble and brought her lips to his. Starfire let her hands rest on his shoulders while Robin ran his through her silk smooth hair. Starfire sighed numerous times making herself believe she didn't have the recovered strength to pull away from him. Needing to catch her breath she reluctantly parted her mouth from Robin's and felt an inability to breathe. Robin stared up at her in a daze and gazed deep into those wonderfully hypnotic pools of green.

"Glad your still with us," he whispered.

"As am I," she said equally as quiet. "Robin I have only known you for a short time, but there are things I feel; things of which I simply cannot ignore."

"Well, what a coincidence. I feel the exact same way," said Robin. She smiled and let out a happy laugh while hugging him tightly. After grasping him tightly she finally let go and they sat up. "If your feeling up to it we should probably get up."

"Agreed Robin," she said happily.

"Hey Star, what about the harvesters? Won't they float on down"-

"Do not fear Robin. They require either oxygen or blood plasma in order to survive. Since the vacuum of space contains neither it will surely die." He nodded with a smile and the two walked out of her room.

IN THE COMMON ROOM……………………..

Cyborg had just served breakfast and Raven had to pry Beast Boy away from the Game Station since it was time to eat. Worried about their friend they didn't get that much sleep but were resolved to carry on should the worst occur. Just then the door opened and in stepped Robin and Starfire.

"GOOD MORNING FRIENDS," she beamed with a wide smile. They all jumped up and ran over to her.

"DUDE YOUR ALRIGHT!"

"MAN ITS GOOD TO SEE YOU UP!"

"I'm glad you're alright," said Raven with yet another rare smile. Starfire smiled fondly at all of her new friends. To her they signified her new life, a life were she would save lives not take them. Whether she was in control or not was irrelevant to her, she felt the need to make up for whatever she had done in her forced service to the Psions.

"Hey Starfirrreeee," called Robin from the kitchen. She peeked over Raven and saw Robin holding a plate of her favorite breakfast food. "There's a plate of pancakes just waiting to be eaten." Her eye bulged out at the sight of her food and she dashed over to the counter. She quickly devoured the delicious 'cakes of pan' with fervor and gave Robin a loving look of thanks. She was about to ask for more when the alarm went off. Recognizing the alarm from last time Starfire quickly stood up. Cyborg checked the monitor and a picture of Jump City prison came up.

"It's Cinderblock; believe it or not he's trying to break into the prison." A little perplexed Robin clipped on his yellow belt and headed for the door. It was then that Starfire heard a phrase that she would routinely hear for years to come.

"TITANS GO!"

At the police station a gigantic rock monster with a square head moved into the central part of the prison. He stood in place for a moment then heard Beast Boy shout out;

"You know Cinderblock, most of the time the criminals try to break out of jail."

"I can think of five reasons why you don't want to break in," came Robin's voice. He jumped down. "One!" Starfire then glided into the room.

"Two!" Beast Boy morphed back from a cat to his human form.

"Three!" Raven phased in through the wall and stood ready.

"Four." Cyborg finally made his entrance and took position behind Robin.

"Five!" The Teen Titans stood resolute before their enemy.

"No matter how you do the math, it all adds up to you going down. Sooo, are you gonna go quietly?"

"Or is this gonna get loud," added Cyborg. Cinderblock let out an irritated grunt and charged forward. With a twirl of his staff Robin gave the signal.

"Titans GO!" The Titans then ran forward, or took flight, and engaged their opponent. It was a dangerous business, crime fighting. But Starfire could tell she already enjoyed it, and enjoyed doing it with her friends. And though she treasured all of them very much, she couldn't help but feel a special connection with Robin. The one who found her, the red haired girl who washed up on the shores of Titans Tower.
