okay, wow. i have NOT posted here in a while! okay, now i know that starfire will be so out of character, but i wanted her to be more realistic, and i want there to be an obvious change about ehr character later on, so yah, sorry about that but she'll be herself in a couple chapters.

Okay, this is an AU fic. I'll give you backgrounds and stuff.

Ok, Cyborg's name is Victor Stone, and is seventeen years old. He restores cars that people give him to well, restore or he restores them for his own. He's real good with technology but isn't a geek. He's also on track.

Beast Boy's name is Garfield Logan and is fifteen years old. His character is basically a little Ace Ventura. He's weird and understands animals, but he's no detective.

Raven is Rachel Roth and is sixteen years old. She's gothic and keeps to herself, and the only one she really opens up to is her best friend and total opposite Kori Anders. She doesn't wear her feelings right out on her sleeves, and meditates and reads a lot.

Starfire is Kori Anders, and is sixteen as well. She will, however eventually use the name Starfire, a name given to her by her Guardian Galfor. She's very smart and yet naive. She enjoys science for she is Galfor's, who is a scientist, apprentice.

Robin is Richard 'Dick' Grayson as well as Robin. He is sixteen-going-on-seventeen, and the legendary Batman's sidekick. But as Batman begins to let Robin take on some baddies on his own, Robin gains his very own personal arch nemesis.

Blackfire is Koma (Ko-May) Anders and is nineteen years old and will too undergo this nickname, but she comes up with it on her own. She may seem like a wonderful and responsible old sister but is she really the caring sibling, or something quite the opposite?

Slade will be Slade Wilson and Deathstroke the Terminator, Robin's new arch foe. But why does he find the need to torment the young hero?

There are the bios, and now here's the story!


"Yo, Rich! Get yo ass in here, and help me out will ya?" Victor yelled out from under the car. Dick shook his head out of his thoughts and walked into the garage.

"What do ya need, Vic?"

"Hand me that wrench on the shelf," Dick grabbed the wrench and handed it to him, "So, where were you last night? I didn't see you at the meet," Dick could've hit himself for forgetting.

'Dick you fool! You forgot to call him saying you couldn't go!' he screamed in his head, "Uh, sorry Vic, I couldn't make it and forgot to…call you." He said ashamed. There had been a robbery and while he usually would call on his way to the scene, this time it had slipped his mind.

"Aw, it's cool man. There'll be other meets." Victor said trying to hide his very familiar disappointment, for this was not the first time or the last.


"Hand me some of that Krypton will you Starfire," a large man with a shaggy red beard said. A girl who appeared as a small child compared to the man's height, did as she was told, "Thank you, now can you please stir up the Sulfuric Dioxide with the Uranium. Not fast! But not too slow."

"What did you do with the frozen sulfuric dioxide, Galfor?" the beautiful Red headed girl asked.

"Oh it's over here, Kori." He took the mixtures and did all the procedures and put them in metallic objects. He had been working on it for a few years now, and it was finally coming to an end, "I can't believe that it is almost finished my little Bungorf. Soon, we shall have a new way of crime fighting. Here!" he handed her the metallic items and then bent down and retrieved a purple costume, "This is a uniform I have made for you. You shall be the one to show them how it works, as I present."

"Wow! You have them already? I did not think they were finished."

"Yes, they are complete. Now, let me explain how everything works," he picked up a pair of long purple boots, "These are the anti-gravity boots that will allow police forces to chase down criminals like never before!" he laid them on the table and then took two of the metallic items from Kori, "These, are what fire the Starbolts, that's what I'm calling them," he said with a smile and grabbed a metallic breast plate, "This is simply part of the costume, but I suppose it can work as a guard," he put it down and took a cylindrical metallic bracelet, "And this is the strength enhancer. You put it on whichever side you wish, and it will make you stronger. Not just on one side, but both sides, "he added and set it down and grabbed the final piece, "and this is for your eyes, and you can shoot Starbolts out of them. Now, put them on!" he insisted excitedly as he pushed her out and in the direction of her room.

Kori shrieked and Galfor came running and saw her standing in the uniform….orange.

"What is happening Galfor! Why am I orange!" she screamed.

"It must be the chemicals, take it off and see if it wears off." He suggested worriedly as he left. When she came out again her skin color was normal again and they both looked relieved. She handed him the uniform and they headed back into the lab. He went over to a phone and dialed an eight digit number: 90517154. A small square in the wall opened and he walked over to it and placed the uniform inside and closed it, "We must keep it safe, you and I are not the only ones who know of my plans, and they must not find this. Because one more element of Sulfuric Dioxide added to the mixture would be deadly. We must be careful, Kori."

"Do not worry my Kinorfka; I shall not speak a word of it. Not even to Koma."


"Yo, my hommie G! Waz up in the hood!" Garfield Logan exclaimed to Rachel Roth, whose nose was in a book. As she past him she simply shoved him into the wall, "Hey!"

"You're not black, Gar."

"I was just messin Rach,"

"You seem to forget," a voice began, "Rachel has no sense of humor, so you're wasting your breath, Gar." Rachel looked up irritated.

"I'm pretty sure they call you Dick for reasons other than it being short for Richard, Dick." Dick scowled at the goth girl and huffed. Gar was about to make some sort of remark Dick would probably punch him for when an angelic voice beat him to it.

"I'll have to agree but I believe having him be called Dick as his nickname is only a way for him to compensate for what he doesn't have." Dick cringed and whipped around.

"You know, Kori? I hear all sorts of rumors saying how nice, wondrous, caring and gorgeous you are." He replied sweetly and sincerely.

"Thank you—

"But like I said," he got up in her face and squinted his icy blues eyes at her, "Rumors." They stared each other down for a while until one would give until two large pair of arms engulfed them, forcing them to be squished against each other.

"All right ya'll," Vic pushed them closer, "kiss and make up." the two trapped teens eyes bulged as they fought for freedom.

They both screamed simultaneously, "Never!"

"Like I'd ever on my own free will touch the likes of her!" Dick shouted.

"Oh bite me, Grayson!" Kori shouted rudely at him, who was the only person she ever got nasty too.

"Show me where Babe," Dick remarked flirtatiously sarcastic.

"You pig!"

"Whore—

Vic slapped his hand over Dick's and Kori's mouth, "Alright ya'll are soundin' like a bunch a little kids," he started and then smiled mischievously, "and you know when little kids act like this it usually means they like each other." The two blushed and whipped away from each other and stalked off fuming and muttering under their breaths.

"Dickless fag."

"Skanky little skirt."

They turned around as if ready to jump and tackle the other, "What did you say!" They were about to start another fight when the chuckle and knowing glances from Vic, Gar, and Rachel stopped them. They snorted and turned and left without another word.


Dick got home and made his way down to the bat cave, where Bruce would no doubt be. When he got there Bruce gave orders right away.

"There was a break in at a house, some new villain. He's good. He's got robot minions. They're on Charlotte and 34th, get going."

"I'm on it."


Robin made his way in the direction of Charlotte and 34th and sure enough, up ahead there was a commotion. There were about 15 robot fighters, but he whipped out his Bo staff and easily took them out. All of a sudden, a furious blow was impacted against his back. He went flying and hit the ground with a tremendous thud. He looked up and saw a man in bronze and black, much like his minions, half his face shadowed in a mysterious darkness.

"Hello Robin."

"Who are you?" Robin demanded as he stood up and got in battle stance.

"You'll have to figure that out on your own, but you can call me Deathstroke the Terminator."

"You're an original," Robin remarked sarcastically and took out his Bo Staff, but to his surprise, so did Deathstroke.

"This will be fun."


Dick sat in a chair down in the Bat Cave, Icing the back of his head.

"You let him get away!"

"I didn't mean to Bruce! I'm sorry."

"You underestimated him! You shouldn't be so cocky! You can't do everything," Bruce sighed and then continued, "Go to the house where the break in was. Not much is known about the break in, but go find out what Deathstroke wanted."


Kori unlocked the door to the house and shut it behind her, "Galfor! Galfor I am home!" She didn't get any response and shrugged, figuring he was in the lab to caught up to hear her, "Dear Kinorfka! I seek your companionship!" She went down the hall to the door that led to the lab. She twisted the door knob and pushed it open.

She wanted to scream, but couldn't find the voice to do so. She looked around the destroyed lab, broken glass shattered everywhere. She saw a large heap on the floor, "No. No, please no!" she rushed over and saw her beloved guardian lying there helplessly dying, "Galfor!"

He coughed and weakly opened his eyes, "Is that you, my little Bungorf?" She smiled sorrowfully.

"Yes my Kinorfka, it is." Her tears fell, "What happened?"

He coughed once more, "Robots, a man. They broke in," cough, "they were looking for the star bolts," cough, wheeze, "They did not find it. If any one comes, do not speak a word. No one must know…"

"Galfor! No, I shall call the 911, we shall get you help!" she went to get up but he grasped her hand.

"No Kori. There is nothing that can be done. Koma will take good care of you," he said weakly.

"No…" she trailed, not wanting to lose another.

"Do not tell anyone, be safe my little…my little Starfire…" a low breath escaped his lips and that was it. Kori cried into his chest pleading for him to come back.

"No! Galfor come back! Do not leave me here!" she stopped suddenly when she heard glass crack. She turned her head to see none other than Robin standing there.


Robin couldn't believe it, and yet there she was. Kori Anders. His childhood foe tearstained next to another lost one in a tragic event.

She wiped her eyes, trying to compose herself only in turn having to look away as the tears fell again. Robin didn't know what to do; Dick didn't know what to do. Instead he did all that came to his head. He walked over and knelt beside her, his large, usually strong and rough hand was now gently and sincerely placed on her shoulder. She looked up at him, her emerald eyes glistening. All he could do was show her his sympathy, but that wasn't what she wanted. Instead she threw her arms around him and cried into his chest. Robin was stunned for a moment, but regained himself and wrapped his arms around her in a safe and warm embrace, softly stroking her long red hair.

"Who did this?" Kori asked as she lightly pulled away, one arm holding his neck the other unsuccessfully wiping the river of tears that didn't seem to stop.

Robin pulled off his glove so it wouldn't pinch her skin as he brought it up and moved her hand away as he took the job of wiping away her tears, "He's called Deathstroke the Terminator," she gasped at how monstrous this murderer sounded, " and why he broke in here I don't know. Do you?"

"No." she lied and buried her head back in his toned chest, "You don't have to leave right now…do you?"

Robin cradled her, "No, I don't have to just yet."


please tell me what you think!
