We Always Hurt The Ones We Love. ~ A Teen Titans fan fiction.

[Starfire5]

my first fanfic this would be pretty pathetic if it weren't for the help of PressureCooker. Thanks Again..
-------------------------------------------------------------------------


Sunfire’s feet landed on earth softly as she searched for Starfire.It was around 7 o’clock and she knew earthlings were not accustom to seeing a teenage girl flying around so she decided to keep a low profile. How could Starfire send Blackfire to the centauri prison? She thought I’ll get Starfire but it’s the last thing I do for Blackfire. I’m sick and tired of taking orders from her.

“There she is.”

Starfire was walking down the sidewalk on the other side of the street. Sunfire flew up to the top of the building across from Starfire and then she kneeled down trying to hide herself. Starfire glanced at the building thinking she had saw something, but she shook her head and continued walking. Sunfire's light brown hair blew in the wind as she flew over the traffic to another building across the street. The building had a huge sign that read WAYNE. She stood on the edge of the building looking down at Starfire her hands glowed a dark yellow. She was about to throw a sunbolt at Starfire when she realized.

“There are too many people around, this only involves me and Starfire. I need to get her somewhere out in the open, by herself.”

She turned around and smiled. Time to create a little chaos she thought. She fired a series of sunbolts at the metal supports and the huge W faltered on the edge and groaned as the remaining metal gave way.

The sidewalk became enveloped in a shadow that increased in size by the second. Starfire looked up at the building as the letter plumeted end over end toward the street below. She hit it with her starbolts and reduced it to dust. “I wonder what has happened.” Starfire said. She flew to the top of the building. When she landed on the roof she saw a shadow of someone on the other side just standing on the edge. Starfire walked slowly closer to the figure, unsure of it's intentions. She was a couple of feet away when she saw the person’s hands blaze in a yellow glow.

“You’re a tamaranian!” Starfire yelled.

[ArtificialIdiot]

hmm, nice start! Very nice!

This looks as if it could build up to be a pretty good storyline. Although, the two "Sfires" are going to confuse me a lot, but I'll get over it

That is soooo not true! I only added like five words, maybe six tops. But anyways... I'm glad I was asked to help out on a project like this. After all, it's not everyday you get asked to join someones creative effort. I'm looking forward to seeing this fic blossom into a real good read.

Now it's your part. Lets show this newcomer how we do things on the Worlds Finest Storyboard and review the hell out of it. Granted this is just the start of the story, but it's always nice to know what you the reader thinks.

[True Noir]

That's a really good start. I like it.

[Lord Welshi]

An excellent start to a new story arc. So many hooks to get the reader thinking: who is this new tamaranian? why is she after starfire, and why does she seem to take orders from blackfire? AND is she really evil? if she was, would she really care about the other people around in the area?
Too many questions there, but they need answering. So answer them by writing the next chapter! Write it!!!!

Oops, bit OTT there

[Kylewayne]

I must agree with the rest of the group. I like where this story is heading. Please write more. =)

[Starfire5]

Sorry it took me awhile (i will always put this) Thanks Pressure Cooker for helping me with this, Thanks ALOT! -

Chapter 2.



Sunfire turned around.

“Sunfire!” Starfire shouted. Sunfire flew up into the air and threw a sunbolt at Starfire. She just missed but the sunbolt had created a hole and smoke drifted up in to the air.

“Why do you attack me?”

“Feign ignorance all you wish, sister. You will die just the same.” Sunfire threw a series of sunbolts at Starfire. She dodged most of them but was thrown back on the ground from one. Starfire stood up. She flew onto the higher building beside them. What is she doing? Sunfire thought. She followed her and as she ascended to the top of the building she was hit with a starbolt. She was thrown into the nearest building and fell onto the cement leaving a cracked crater in the sidewalk.

“Sunfire... what have you become?” She soared over her sister and headed for the titans tower. She won’t stay down for long I must get my friends to help me.

~

Robin and Cyborg were on the edge of their seats fighting against each other on their newest video game. Raven was in her room and Beast Boy was drooling on his shirt as he snored softly.

“Ha! I won again!” Cyborg yelled as he raised up his hands in triumph. “Who da man? I’m da man!!”

Robin hit his fist on the couch.

“I call a rematch.”

They were just about to start a new game when Starfire burst in the room.

“Friends you must help me! My sister is attacking me!”

“What Blackfire is back?!” Robin said.

“No. My other sister!”

“What? You have another sister!” Beast Boy exclaimed. He stood up and yawned. “I guess we’ll have to take care of another one.”

“Friends we must go.” Starfire looked around. “If I may ask where is Raven?”

“Right here.” Raven said in her usual monotone voice.

“Lets move!” Robin yelled as they left the titans tower.

~

Sunfire stood up ands brushed the dust from her legs. She rose to the top of the building. No one was there. In the distance she heard someone yell.

“Titans GO!”

“What?” She turned around quickly and saw Starfire carrying a boy with a cape, a green eagle, and a girl wearing a dark blue hooded cape carrying a half robot half man all coming towards her. She clenched her teeth. Starfire dropped Robin on the roof and he immediately started to run towards Sunfire. Cyborg dropped down to the rooftop and went down on one knee. He leveled his cannon at the alien girl and fired off a blast of blue energy. Sunfire ducked and rolled off the the side. The blast ripped up the roof right where she had been standing. She rose off the roof and fired off a salvo of sunbolts into the direction of the titans. Robin dodged the blasts and flung a birdarang toward the attacker. Sunfire let a blast fire from her hand, obliterating the object in mid flight.

Beast Boy let out a cry and swooped down toward Sunfire with his talons open. She saw him approaching and fired a bolt right at his head. The eagle's eyes grew wide and then he dove toward the roof... a little too late. The Sunbolt that was aimed at his head had missed it's mark, but found his tail. Beast Boy circled toward the rooftop with his tail on fire all the time cawing like an injured crow. When he hit the roof he changed back into his human form and ran around while comically swatting at the fire that raged on his butt.

Sunfire stopped firing blasts at the Titans and watched the amateur comedy hour that was playing out on the roof below. Beast Boy was still running in circles while a fire alarm bell rang. He changed into the form of an elephant and used his trunk to get some of the water out of the rooftop tower. He squirted out the contents on his smoldering rump and a column of steam rose up from backside. Beast Boy changed back into his human form and breathed a sigh of relief. Sunfire let out a giggle and said "Looks like Tamaran isn't the only planet with two moons!” Beast Boy looked up at her not understanding what she meant... till a breeze caught his attention. His pants had a large round hole burnt into them. He turned beet red and covered his rear with both hands "Hey! That’s not funny!"

I'm sorry my sister, but you have become evil like Blackfire. I can not allow you to hurt my friends anymore. Sunfire had only turned her attention away from the battle for a second, but that was all Starfire needed. The air became ionized around Sunfire and she felt a tingle of electricity shoot down her spine. She realized what was happening and turned to defend her self, but it was too late. A starbolt fired from point-blank range blasted into her back causing her to plummet down to the roof. Sunfire crashed into the roof with such force that she broke through it and slammed into the offices below. The building shook and the top floor windows were blown out as she finally came to rest on the floor of an executive suite.

Smoke rose from the hole created by Sunfire’s rather hasty departure from the battle. The Titans gathered around the the smoking body of Sunfire while Starfire looked nervously at her sister. She knew how strong she was and that the crushing blow she had delt would only stop her temporally. Cyborg raised his arm toward her and looked at his data readout "Well, she’s out cold, but her heart rate is still up... so don't expect this to last long." he said as he lowered his arm back to his side. Robin took out his comm. unit and started pushing buttons. He tinkered with the device for a few seconds and said "I'm going to go back on the roof for a better signal... Stay on your guard, this isn't over." Robin hoped back up onto the roof out of view.

Beast Boy edged closer to the unconscious girl and raised an eyebrow. "How come all the evil girls are so pretty? I mean... Blackfire, Sunfire, Raven, they are all cute... but evil." He said. Raven became agitated and growled at him "I'm not evil... Wait, did you say I'm cute? I don't know if I should be angry or flattered". Raven shook her head and spoke again "I'm sure it's the former, more than the latter. And please, will you cover your butt?” Beast Boy didn't pay any attention to Raven, he continued to study Sunfire's face. He tilted his head and said "I wonder why everyone in your family is bad except for you, Starfire. It's a shame too. She looks so peaceful when shes asleep. Hey, you weren’t adopted or anything, were you-". Beast Boy's lame attempt at humor was interrupted by the panel on Cyborg's arm giving out a shrill beep.

~

Get up she told herself Get up! He body wouldn’t move. Starfire had hit her with a lot of power but she wouldn’t give up that easily. Sunfire heard a beep that sounded distant but familiar. She opened her eyes and looked at the clock. She wondered who would send a message at this hour, and why it was marked urgent. Sunfire sat up in bed and rubbed her eyes. It was Blackfire. She had sent her a message from a terminal at the centauri prison. Blackfires message appeared on her computer screen.



Dear Sunfire,

I have been imprisoned in the Centauri jail by Starfire. She framed me for crimes I didn't commit and humiliated me by having me sent to prison in her place. I want you to go to the planet earth and teach her a lesson that she will never forget. I want you to kill Starfire. Starfire has changed she is no longer the innocent little sister we once knew, she is evil, coniving, vindictive and worst of all... a traitor to the family. I trust you will do this for me.

Your sister,

Blackfire.


That's when this mess had started. That's why she was here. That's why she had traveled all those light-years. Sunfire had to get Starfire. She had to clear Blackfire's name...

~

"B.B. look out!" yelled Cyborg. Beast Boy backpedaled to get away, and he almost made it. Sunfire's eyes snapped open and everyone was blinded by a yellow flash.

Robin closed the communicator and started to walk back toward the hole in the roof when another hole was blasted in it, this time from the inside out. He jumped back as a green blur was shot out of the hole and flew toward the stratosphere. "Beast Boy?" He asked as the little green changling let out a squeal while continuing his flight toward escape velocity. Robin dropped back into the hole in the roof and was greeted by the sight of one of Raven's black force fields. Sunfire was seething with energy and the field could barely contain it. Raven struggled to keep focus as the orange energy expanded and began to crack and blister the black shield that protected the Titans. "Please sister, why do you attack us? I had always hoped that you would stay on the pure path, but you have followed in Blackfire's footsteps and taken the descent into the dark plains." Starfire started to cry as she finished the last sentence. Sunfire's eyes blazed a bright orange as she howled "How dare you defile the name of our... my sister! She trusted you, folowed you, even came to Earth to be closer to you... And to pay her back you have her framed and thrown in prison like a common thief? You are not worthy of the royal Tamaranian blood that flows in your veins! Don't worry sister, I shall remove that burden from your body if it's the last thing I do!"

The floor shook as Sunfire summoned all her strength and pushed her energy outward. The shield started to buckle against the tidal wave of power and Raven was being pushed back as her force field began to collapse. "I can't hold her for long. She has too much power..." Raven's arms began to tremble as she put all her energy into her field. Robin took a device out of his belt and stretched it into a square shape and began to push buttons that appeared on the screen. The panel flashed a few different images than it produced a long list of text. Robin walked up the the edge of the force field and began to read the text aloud "Universal date 2234/4445/385 Attention Teen Titans, I can not tell you how grateful I am that you have helped my police force capture the fugitive Blackfire of Tamaran. I would also like to extend my most sincere condolences for the confusion involved with you team member Starfire of Tamaran. I'm glad she has forgiven the ignorance of my investigation team and did not press charges for false imprisonment. As you know, Blackfire of Tamaran was an expert at covering her tracks. She was so skilled at this that she was able to plant evidence at the scenes of various crimes that pointed to her sister, Starfire of Tamaran. I'm just glad we can put this whole ordeal behind us. As requested I have sent a copy of Blackfire of Tamaran's 'rap sheet' as you call it. It doesn’t make for good bedtime reading, but I know you will add the information to your database. And you can assure Starfire of Tamaran that her sister will recieve the best of care, per her wishes. Thank you again and please let me know if you will ever visit the Centari system. You are more than welcome to stay with myself and my family. Farewell my new friends, I thank you again. Signed Alamock Tirnas of Centari." Robin took a deep breath then began to read the list of Blackfire's crimes. He was halfway down the list when he was interrupted by a quiet voice.

"Please stop. I don't wish to hear anymore." Sunfire's eyes were wet with tears as she looked over at her sister. The room was now silent. The flow was still, the energy shield was reappearing itself and Sunfire was no longer brimming with hate. She put her hand on the force field and spoke Starfire "My sister, dear sister... how could you ever forgive me for what I've done? I came to this planet to destroy you..." She was too choked up on tears to finish speaking. Starfire cried "Oh Sunfire! I had so hoped you were not evil, and you are not!" she squealed as the force field dropped. The siblings ran toward each other and hugged tightly. They both laughed and cried. Robin put the device back on his belt and smiled. Cyborg walked up to him and whispered in his ear "Hey, do you know where Beast Boy is?". Sunfire let out a gasp and then quickly stared up at the hole in the celing with concern "Oh no..." Sunfire flew up through the hole she had created and searched the roof for Beast Boy. She saw the green teen laying lifelessly by the edge of the roof. “Oh no .....” She walked over to Beast Boy. Please tell me you are unharmed. Beast Boy turned over and slowly opened his eyes. “Are you alright?” Sunfire asked with concern. Beast Boy mumbled something but Sunfire didn’t understand. She picked him up and stood him. “I’m sorry for hurting you. You will forgive me for hurting such a cute green guy?”
Beast Boy gazed at Sunfire and then said with astonishment. “You think I’m cute??” Beast Boy then fell backwards fainting. Starfire flew up through the hole carrying Cyborg. He was dropped on the roof and walked towards Beast Boy. “Beast Boys out for the count.” He bent over and started to pick up Beast Boy up. “We better get him back to the titans tower” Sunfire interrupted. “May I carry Beast Boy back to the titans tower? It is my fault that he is damaged in the first place.” She picked Beast Boy up his body was limp in her arms. “I am truly sorry.” Starfire walked up to her sister and gave her a one arm hug. “It is ok sister. Beast Boy is full of forgiveness. Once he awakens he is sure to forgive you.” Robin jumped through the hole and headed towards the small group. “I think Raven is upset. As soon as Sunfire picked up BB up she just flew back to the Tower.”

“Where is this tower of yours?” Sunfire asked looking around.

“It’s right over there.” Cyborg pointed out while looking in the direction of a building in the shape of a T.
”Ok guys we better get going.” Robin said as he started to jump building from building towards the tower. Sunfire turned toward Starfire. “You do forgive me right Starfire?”
”Yes.” Starfire smiled and picked Cyborg up following Robin. Sunfire looked down at Beast Boy with sadness in her eyes and then slowly followed her sister.

[Lord Welshi]

Ooooo! Me likes! A good chapter, lots of action and great stuff and things! I like the little plot threads that have appeared here and the possible room for character development that you have left open for yourself.

Hmmm....Sunfire calling BB "cute" and Raven going off in what can only be assumed is a huff? Hmmm....catfight, anyone? Seriosuly though, some nice work here. Keep it up!

[Blue_Fire]

Neat. I like it. Everything turned out ok, right? No nasty surprises? Fishes? (I had to do that.)

Chapter 3.



Beast Boy’s surroundings came into view as he opened his eyes but something was different about his room. There was a girl looking over him. “Am I in heaven?” Beast Boy asked. Sunfire let out a little giggle as she placed the ice pack on his forehead. “You are definitely not in heaven. Unless you consider a tamaranian girl helping you recover and a couple of bruises heaven.”

“You’re not going to attack me right?” Beast boy said while sitting up. The ice pack fell off his forehead and landed on his lap.

“No I will not attack you, your friend Robin has explained. And you no longer are my enemy.” She picked up the ice pack. “Lay down you need your rest.” Beast Boy laid back down and she put the icepack back in its place. “I’m truly sorry for having hurt you. I will accept if you don’t forgive me.”

“I forgive you. You didn’t know the truth. So it’s all good. But were you serious when you said I was cute?” Beast Boy asked with anticipation. Sunfire blushed. “Yes.”

“It’s ok you don’t have to be embarrassed. I’m used to being called cute.” Beast Boy said with pride. “Then why did you faint?” Sunfire asked. “Ummm.” Beast Boy said trying to make up an excuse. “Because I was getting help by the enemy and she was so cute,” Sunfire went even redder. “You should get some sleep, I’m going to go talk to my sister.” Sunfire walked towards the door and was about to push the button to open the door when she heard Beast Boy say something. “What?” Sunfire asked. “Thanks for helping me get better.” Beast Boy said then closed his eyes. “Its me who should be thanking you. You forgave me after all I did. And for that I thank you.”

She pushed the button and walked through the door, She looked around there were three doors in front of her. Sunfire knocked lightly on the door to the left of her. She had hoped this was the right one but she was new in the tower and didn’t know her surroundings much. She waited. No one answered. She knocked harder this time it echoed throughout the empty hallway. She heard a quiet beep and the door slid open. All she saw was darkness, and then a figure stepped out. It was Raven.
”Yes?” Raven asked.
”Oh.” Sunfire muttered. “I’m sorry I was looking for Starfire’s room.”

”Its right over there.” Raven said pointing it out and then saying with a hint of anger in her voice “And Beast Boy’s is right there.”

”Yes I know I was just there a minute ago.” Sunfire looked towards Starfire’s room and then back to Raven. “You forgive me too. Right?”

Raven just stared at her and then shut the door. Sunfire let out a sigh and walked over to Starfire’s room. She knocked on the door. The door slid open and she was greeted by her sisters face. “Oh Sunfire! We have so much to catch up on. Come in.” Starfire said in her cheery voice. Sunfire walked in she saw that her sister was working on something. But she couldn’t quite see what it was exactly. She rubbed her arm not knowing what to do or what to say. Starfire walked back to the desk she was working at and continued her project.

”Umm” Sunfire said in a quiet voice.
Starfire tuned around and looked at her sister. “Sunfire you do not have to be afraid. I am your sister and you are among friends. I do not understand why you are uncomfortable.”

”You don’t understand? I don’t understand why you are so comfortable around me.” Sunfire started to get angry at her sisters cheerfulness. “I mean, I attack you and your friends and you welcome me with open arms. I could attack you any moment now.” Sunfire sat on Starfire’s bed and put her hands on her face. “I’m not saying I would but you don’t have any doubts about me or anything.” Starfire got up and sat beside her sister. “I trust you. And I believe my friends do too.”

Sunfire smiled. “Maybe everyone except that girl, Raven.” Starfire started to laugh. “I assume Raven is upset because Beast Boy thinks your cute.... and you think he is to.” They both started to laugh. Starfire embraced her sister. “I have missed you so much.”
”I missed you to. It’s pretty lonely on Tamaran since Blackfire is gone.” Sunfire viewed her sisters room. “You really like it here better then Tamaran?”
”I have good friends here, and it is very beautiful on the planet earth.” Starfire explained. Sunfire stood up and walked to the window. The sky had turned velvet blue and the stars shimmered all around the tower. Sunfire gasped. “Starfire lets go to the top of the tower I want to show you something.” She grabbed Starfire arm and exited the room she looked for some stairs that would lead to the top of the tower. She spotted the fleet of stairs and pulled her sister up them. When the reached the top they saw a full moon in front of them and millions upon millions of stars around them. It was like they had all came just for them.

”Wow.” Starfire said. Sunfire smiled and let go of her sister’s arm. She walked to the edge of the tower and looked up at the stars,
”It was worth it... traveling all those light years. Earth is beautiful.” Sunfire said. “You know you can see Tamaran from here.”
”What?!?” Starfire said astonished. She ran up beside her sister.
”It happens on rare occasions but you can see it. Look.” She pointed to a dim orange star beside the moon. “There is our planet.” Starfire squinted. “Its so far away.”

Sunfire sat down and let her feet dangle on the side of the roof. Starfire sat next to her.
”Don’t you ever miss home?” Sunfire asked.
”I do but in many ways earth is like Tamaran.” Starfire said.
”You’re right they both have two moons.” They both started to laugh again. Sunfire took a deep breath.
”I miss Tamaran terribly and I’ve only been away for less than 4 days.” She looked back up at the orange star.
”Do you really miss Blackfire?” Starfire asked and then looked at Sunfire. Sunfire looked at her sister.
”No, when she sent me the message to come get you. I was sick of her telling me what to do.”

Sunfire gazed back up at the stars. “I don’t know what I was doing. I should have known better.”
”Don’t blame yourself. When Blackfire came I thought she wasn’t evil too I was deceived also.”
They just sat there looking up at the stars for about a minute when Robin walked up the stairs and entered the rooftop. “Its getting late. You should go to bed. It was a long trip from Tamaran wasn’t it?” Starfire stood up and walked over to Robin. “I’ll come later. I just want to sit here for a while.”

Robin exited down the stairs and Starfire followed. Sunfire laid back on the roofs edge with her head in hands. Her eyelids felt heavy. I must be more tired than I thought she thought. I’ll just rest my eyes for a second. She closed her eyes.
~

I am dreaming....I have to be dreaming because I’m back on Tamaran she thought. She was on Tamaran and Starfire was there, She was standing just a few feet behind Starfire. She saw her hand emit a bright orange glow.Her hand rose up and leveled at her target. No she told herself Starfire did nothing wrong. She tried to tell her hand to move but it wouldn’t move. She couldn’t do anything to stop herself. ”Bye bye sister.” She heard herself say. A sunbolt fired from her hand and seared into her sisters back.
~

Her eyes shot open and she was startled by Beast Boys face. She lost balance and almost fell off the roof but Beast Boy grabbed her arm.
”You know if you wanted to sleep outside you could have asked we would have brought you a blanket or something.” He rubbed his eyes and yawned. “It’s 3 o’clock in the morning. You really should go to sleep.” Sunfire stood up, yawned and then walked towards the stairs.
”You should be back in bed recovering.” Beast Boy smiled “I’ll be fine just a couple of scratches.”
”Bruises.” Sunfire said as she started to walk down the stairs.
”Right, bruises.” Beast Boy said as he rubbed the back of his neck. She walked over to Beast Boys room, pressed a button. The door slid open. Beast Boy yawned again as he walked in and got into bed. Sunfire pulled the cover up.
”Goodnight.” Sunfire said as she walked towards the open door.
”Night.” Beast Boy whispered than started to snore. She walked threw his door and into her sisters room. Starfire had made a bed beside her own and was sleeping soundlessly. Sunfire walked over to what her sister was working on earlier.
”Some memory keepsake..” She whispered as she looked at the photos scattered over Starfire’s desk. She walked back over to her bed and laid down. As she pulled the covers up to her chin she saw the sun start to rise. She closed her eyes hoping to not have another nightmare. She rolled over onto her side and fell asleep.

really good keep writing!!!!

[PressureCooker]

Hey all! Here is the next installment of the Starfire5 / PressureCooker joint fic. Once again the pleasure has been all mine. Just a reminder, this whole show is run by Starfire5, I’m just along for the ride (and what a ride! ) Anywho… Here is the latest chapter from the fic we all know and love!



Chapter 4



Robin walked down the sunlit hall towards the kitchen to get some breakfast. He walked in to the kitchen and almost bumped into Starfire who was staring mouth agape at the kitchen table. He moved beside her and saw that the table had a feast on it and Cyborg was already helping himself to the food.
”Hey, grab a seat and dig in!” Cyborg said as he put more food on his plate. Raven walked by him, towards the kettle that had just started to whistle.
”But....where?” Robin asked looking at the plates of pancakes, eggs, bacon, all the food that you would eat for breakfast was on the table.
”I think this was Sunfire’s way of thanking us for letting her stay.” Cyborg’s words were muffled by the two pancakes he had just shoved in his mouth.

“My sister?” Sunfire said astonished. “But then where is she?”
”I could probably tell you that. She’s probably with Beast Boy.” Raven said with a slight edge in her voice. She poured herself some tea and took a sip.
”Wow.” Robin said as he grabbed a plate. “Well when she comes back here we have to tell her thanks.”
”Yum.” Starfire said as she ate. “I was never aware that Sunfire could cook so well.”
Robin, Starfire and Cyborg sat at the table and began eating.
”Hey Rae aren’t you going to eat?” Cyborg said while looking up from his plate of food.
”No thank you. I’d rather just drink some tea and meditate.” Raven spoke as turned toward the door and headed out of the room.




Sunfire gently sat the plate of food on Beast Boys lap and placed a drink on the table next to him.
” You really didn’t have to cook for me.” He said as his stomach rumbled.
” Your stomach tells me you are hungry.” Sunfire giggled. “It’s the least I could do. You and your friends have been so nice to me.”
Beast Boy looked up and spoke with his mouth half-full of tofu “It’s no big deal, really.”
Sunfire looked deep into Beast Boys eyes. “No really. It is...especially you, I am very sorry for what I did. It was a terrible thing to do. I should have figured out what Blackfire was doing. I just could not…” Tears started to form in Sunfire’s eyes. “Hey don’t cry. Blackfire fooled us as much as she fooled you.” A single tear slid down her cheek and Beast Boy brushed it away with his hand. She hugged him tightly as she started to cry. His body lit up with pain as her arms squeezed the bruises that covered his skin. Beast Boy winced slightly but bit his lip to keep from complaining, he didn’t want her to let go. Beast Boy started to blush, not from pain but from compassion.
”I shouldn’t be here on earth.” Sunfire whispered into Beast Boys ear.
”What?! Why?!” Beast Boy exclaimed.
” It doesn’t feel right being here with Starfire, Robin, Cyborg, Raven....” She paused as she let go of him. “I feel like I’m leading them into a trap...I feel like I’m betraying them.” She started to back up.

“What I mean is...Blackfire could come back. So its best that I go back to Tamaran. She is most likely to go there first.”

She turned around and walked through the door.

“Sunfire wait!” Beast Boy said with his hand outstretched toward the door, but she was already gone.

She walked through the hallway towards the kitchen area. A siren was ringing throughout the tower. “What is that for?” She said to herself. Sunfire walked by the table that was recently filled with some of the titans. She walked out the door and flew towards the outskirts of Jump city.





“Cyborg, you and Raven search the east side of the city. Star, you’re coming with me.” Robin said.

“He can’t hide for long.”

He ran down the street with Starfire hovering above him. Everything was normal. People were happy, strolling down the streets of jump city just minding their own business. There is no sign of Cinderblock here Robin thought. Where could a ten foot tall block of cement hide? Robin took out his communicator and flipped it open. “Any sign of him?”

“Nope. Me and Rae haven’t seen anything.” The communicator buzzed a sign of static.

“I guess we should go back to the tower and wait for anymore information on Cinderblocks location.”

“Ok. Robin. I’ll meet you there. Over and out.”

Robin placed the communicator back on his utility belt and searched for Starfire. She had flown several yards ahead.

“Star!” He called. Starfire stopped and looked back at him. “You’ve been on earth longer than Sunfire. Maybe you should show her around. JumpCity can be somewhat overwhelming to a newcomer. Remember how you felt you’re first few days here?”

She flew down and joined him on the ground. She giggled “Yes, I would have been quite lost if you hadn’t volunteered to be my guide of touring.” Then a look of concern came across her face “But what about Cinderblock?”

“We haven’t seen him and Cyborg and Raven haven’t either. It may have just been a false alarm, it wouldn’t be the first time.” Robin looked towards Titan’s Tower. “So let’s get back.”

They turned around and walked back to the tower. Robin kept taking quick looks over his shoulder.

“Robin as you have said, Cinderblock is no where to be seen, you don’t have to worry.”

“I know, I know.” He said while taking one last look over his shoulder.





She landed on the sidewalk and looked around. Everyone was gone. It was as if JumpCity was deserted. This is not where I landed she thought. Where I landed there were many people. She looked around.

“Maybe I am in the wrong location.” She turned around and hit a wall. “Ouch.”

She stumbled backwards and slowly looked up. She studied the solid concrete man in front of her. His hands were clenched up into fists that were equal to the size of boulders. She had bumped into one of his massive legs.

“Oh Clorbag…” Sunfire gasped. He looked down at her.

“Ha ha ha...” His deep laugh echoed throughout the streets, He thrust one of his fists toward her. She jumped to the left of him and it left a dent in the sidewalk. Sunfire threw a bolt of energy at the fist that remained on the ground; small bits of cement flew off his hand. He pulled back his fist and turned towards Sunfire. He was at least 5 times her size and his shadow covered half the block.

“Uh oh...”





“Sunfire’s gone...” Robin said while shutting the door to Starfire’s room.

“Better off that way,” Raven said as she walked by Robin.

“Raven...What do you mean?” Starfire asked.

“I guess you never learned, did you? We just can’t trust somebody right away. We tried that with Terra.” Raven said, “And that worked out so very well.”

Just then, the door to Beast Boys room slid open and he stepped out. He walked by the other Titans with his head down as if they weren’t even there. He looked up at Raven as he approached and narrowed his gaze. His cold stare burned into her eyes as he walked by. His head turned as he passed her, his eyes never wavering from hers. Beast Boy stared straight forward and exited down the stairwell, door slamming behind him as he went.

“Raven I think he heard you.” Cyborg said but Raven had already gone into her room, her door slamming as well.

“Why doesn’t Raven trust my sister?” Starfire asked Robin.

“I don’t think Raven really trusted anyone after what happened with Terra.” Robin replied. “Maybe we should go find Sunfire and Beast Boy.”

Cyborg, Starfire and Robin exited the tower and entered the main street of Jump city. They decided to split up and each go a different direction to search for the remaining titan and the tamaranian girl.





Cinderblock’s fist hit the side of a building and sent bits of brick flying into the air. It was only a matter of seconds before the air was choked full of dust. Sunfire floated up higher, her head turned left to right looking for Cinderblock on the ground below. She saw a flash of green pass through the dust.

“What?” The dust started to clear up and a scene began to form in front of her eyes. Cinderblock was waving his hand around his face trying to swat down a green eagle.

“Beast Boy!” Sunfire yelled. She flew down level with Cinderblocks torso and placed her hands together. The palms of her hand flashed gold as a mass of energy began to coalesce from her skin. She fired the immense sunbolt straight into Cinderblock’s midsection. An expression of surprise slapped across his face as he stumbled backward. The green eagle flew down beside Sunfire and changed back into its normal form.

“Please don’t leave.” Beast Boy pleaded.

“I don’t think I am returning to Tamaran, definitely not now.” She said as she and Beast Boy quickly moved out of the way of the path of the charging concrete man. Beast Boy changed into a rhino and charged back at Cinderblock hitting him square in the side. Cinderblock was pushed sideways but quickly turned around and started stomping madly at the rhino. Beast Boy turned into a mouse and dodged the enormous feet attempting to squish him. Sunfire flew up and threw a barrage of sunbolts at Cinderblock making him stumble back a couple steps. Beast Boy transformed into a T-rex and rammed head-on into Cinderblock. The giant flailed his hands in the air to try and regain his balance. A blue beam of charged energy ripped across their field of vision and hit Cinderblock causing him to smash into a nearby building. Beast Boy watched as huge chunks of cement and brick fell from the sides of the building and landed on Cinderblock, pining him to the sidewalk.

“Boo-Ya!” Cyborg yelled as he raised his fist in victory. He walked over to the two of his friends and spoke “You guys alright?” Both Beast Boy and Sunfire nodded. Cyborg then flipped open his communication panel and called out

“Robin, I found Beast boy and Sunfire.” He paused for a second. ”And one seriously messed-up Cinderblock.” He smiled.

*clapclapclap* Nice Work. I'm enjoying how you tie in the series with the fic, the two are very nicely interlaced. That was a good point about Terra, but what could this new Sister become? A new love for Beast Boy? Another traitor? Only time (and eventually, you) will tell!

[Crowgirl]

You should give yourself a hand (or at least some applause...) That's really good. Continue!
