Chapter 13: Sorrowful Day
Starfire lay in her room curled into a ball clutching her pillow to her face. Sobs of betrayal and frustration were muffled into slight hiccups as she recalls her earlier conversation with her father and the prince.
“You know the law! You are to marry a prince by or on your 18th birthday. Prince Bluefire will make an excellent husband for you and a indifferent king.” Her father has said raising his voice as he went.
“But I do not wish to become queen! I never asked for any of this! And I most certainly do not wish to marry Bluefire!” She returned her statement with as much anger as possible.
“You are a princess Starfire! And you will begin to act like one, and take up your responsibilities! You will marry the prince like it or not. And you will learn to love him one way or another!” Her father had risen from his thrown to tower over her. His eyes ablaze with anger as his voice boomed over the thrown room.
“You may force me to marry him but I will NEVER LOVE HIM!” She had screamed bloodily, racing out the thrown room doors ignoring her mother’s presence coming down the hall in a frantic search for her friends.
She had run down the corridors in search of her friends to tell them the horrific news. Her tears streamed down her face as she ran blindly through the halls until she came in contact with a hard object, causing her to fall back onto the floor. She had looked up with bleared teary eyes to met an unwelcome face; Prince Bluefire.
“Were are you off to in such a rush?” He said as he smirked down at the distraught princess.
“Were are my friends!” She had demanded in an edgy voice.
“Oh, the ones you came from earth with, right?” He had asked playing dumb scratching his head.
“Do not play games with me Bluefire.” She said threateningly, curling her hands into fists, glaring hard at him.
“Your friends are well for the time being. So I suggest you be a good girl and do as your daddy says. For you will be mine! Tell anyone of this conversation and your friends will be no more.” He said darkly starring down at her lustfully.
“And believe me princess, when I play a game I always win!” And with that he disappeared down the hall leaving her trembling on the cold floor.
Starfire began to shake in her bed again clutching her pillow tighter to her face absorbing the relentless pleas of her heart. Today had been almost the worst day of her life. All her hopes and dreams were washed away. At least when Robin disappeared she still had hope but today crushed whatever hope she had left, rendered all she believed false. There was no way she could fight back not against her father nor Bluefire all seemed so lost. Her friends were not around to help her and Robin was not there to save her. She was alone. All alone, and that is what scarred her the most. She reached into her pocket for the only thing she had left of her home. She clutched the locket in her hands dearly wishing it would return her and her loved ones home safe and sound. She curled into a ball clinging to the locket with both hands against her heart as guilt struck her. If it was not for her, her friends would not be in the predicament they are in now. They would be safe at home back in the tower not worrying if they would live to see another day. The pain of guilt and sorrow soon forced her into a light dreamless sleep until it was interrupted by a knocking on the door.
“Starfire? Honey, may I come in?” Her mother the queen asked. She had been worried about her daughter when she saw her flee from the thrown room.
“What do you want?” Starfire responded bitterly. She knew her mother did nothing wrong but she was not in the mood to find out more bad news.
“Well, that is the first time I have herd you use that tone of voice with me.” Her mother said softly in a scolding tone as she entered her daughter’s room.
She mentally gasped at the sight of her daughter. Star was curled into a tight ball visibly shaking, her emerald eyes were dark and glossy, river stains of tears etched her face, her cheeks were flushed and puffy, but what scared her the most was the desperate pleas that were laced in the depths of her soul that shown sorrowfully from her eyes.
“Oh, sweety.” The queen said as she rushed to her daughter’s side gathering her up in her arms. She held Star closely stroking her hair in a soothing manner as Star lay sobbing painfully on her shoulder. Her mother whispered word of comfort in to her daughter’s ear as she rocked back and forth soothing her child.
“I can not marry him. I can’t mother.” Starfire cried to her mother.
“I know sweety but no one really has a choice in this.” Her mother said truthfully.
“But I don’t like him, let alone love him. How can I marry him?” Star looked up with pleading eyes.
“Oh, don’t worry honey you will learn to love him just like all the other princess this planet has had.” She said sorrowfully, for she wished her daughter did not have to go through this. She had been lucky, she had loved her husband even before they wed.
“I will never love him. My heart already belongs to someone and always will be. Nothing will change that!” Starfire snapped at her mother becoming angry with her.
“Well, were is he now, huh? I do not see him here fighting for your honor or your hand!” Her mother snapped back furious that her daughter would use such a tone of voice with her.
Star said nothing only glared at her mother as she broke down in a hysteria of tears once again. Her mother was startled at her out burst unable to figure out what that caused it.
“You know nothing about him!” Star screamed in her mother’s face tears pouring down like a summer shower. Star jumped off of her mother’s lap and turned her back on her facing the wall.
“He sacrificed his life for me.” Star choked out shuddering at the memory she longed to burry.
Her mother was shocked to say the least. How could some earth boy, a nobody, love her enough to protect her with his life; it was un-herd of. All the rumors she herd about earth lead her to believe love did not exist on that planet. Maybe the rumors were untrue, so she would listen to her daughter’s story.
“Oh, honey, come here.” Her mother said standing and approaching Star wrapping her arms around her in a back hug.
“You don’t know him, mother. He was perfect. He loved me with all his soul as I did him.” Star sank back into her mother’s hug as her cries turned into light hiccups.
“I would like to know him, as well as the rest of your friends from earth. He sounds like a worthy husband for my baby girl.” Her mother looked at her giving a small smile to comfort her daughter.
“That sounds great mom.” Star say as they went back to her bed and sat down as Star began her story from the beginning of how she met the titans unto when she arrived here.
Her mother laughed at points her daughter described, was awed at her daughter’s bravery as well as the other teens against evil, smiled when she spoke lightly of Robin and the other couples, and cried heavy heartedly when she daughter described Robin’s accident. She was in aw at the ring Star showed her that Robin had proposed to her with. She was saddened by the fact she was not there to comfort her daughter in her time of need and that she is unable to erase the horrible memories that plague her mind.
“Oh, honey, Beast Boy sounds like real entertainment. If anything electronic breaks I will be sure to suggest we send it to earth for Cyborg to fix. Raven sounds like a deep person and very loyal friend. And Robin..He sounds like a wonderful man. Only if her were here…Her mother whispered the last part low enough so her daughter could not hear.
“I wish I could have seen them. Too bad they did not come with you” Her mother wondered what exactly they looked like.
“Ya, they could not leave the city unattended for long. You know all the crime and that.” Star said lying not looking at her mother in the face. Her mother noticed her daughter lying about something but laid off she knew her daughter would tell her in time.
“But I do have some picture of them I brought with me.” She pulled out her locket and told her mother how and when she got it.
She showed her mother the first picture. It was the one that had originally been placed in it by Cyborg. They were all out on a picnic at the central park. Beast Boy and Cyborg had their handheld game systems connected with a cable battling each other and Raven was leaning on Beast Boy’s side reading a book. Robin and herself were in a tickling match. Robin had her laying on the grass pinned under him his hands on her sides and he wore a wide smile on his handsome face. She had her hands slightly pushing up onto his chest as her head was tilted back and her eyes closed laughing hard. She pointed everyone out to her mother telling her their names.
Her mother thought they were all wonderful people that her daughter lived with. Robin was by far more handsome than she had suspected. I was no wonder her daughter had fallen for him. She thought as she smiled the picture.
“My I see the others?” Her mother asked.
“Sure mom.” Star said smiling at her mother and her positive interest in her other home.
Starfire showed her the next photo. It was Robin, her, Beast Boy, Raven and Cyborg all posing in their costumes. Star had pointed out what their standings were in the group showing her that Robin was the leader of the group. The second picture was of her and Robin on the dance machine at the arcade. She was smiling and laughing dancing to the music and was watching Robin try and concentrate on the moves. The look of concentration he was showing in his face was visible in the picture. Her mother had chuckled at seeing Robin’s face in the holograph. The third was of her and Raven meditating around her crystal ball trying to contact the dead. In the background you could see Beast Boy sneaking into the room to startle the girls. The forth picture was of Beast Boy, Cyborg and Robin all playing a video game. Robin winning and Beast Boy and Cyborg with their mouths hung to the floor as they watched Robin pass all high scores set. The fifth picture was of the entire group Robin included on the beach. Robin was surfing in a pair of black and red swim trunks showing off his tanned toned chest. Cyborg was racing Robin on the waves, while Beast Boy made a sand castle. Her and Raven were throwing the Frisbee around. The sixth picture was a hilarious one. Robin had just beat the crap out of some guy that had hit on her. She was trying to pull one of his arms the opposite way to get him to follow her. He one the other hand was not down with the guy and had his foot in the guys stomach in the process of falling as the became unbalanced with her pulling. In the back ground Beast Boy, Raven and Cyborg all hung their heads in pitty. The seventh picture was taken on her sixteenth birthday right before Robin too her out. She wore her light purple dress and had the corsage he had bought for her. He was standing slightly behind her with his arms snugly wrapped around her waist, his head rested gently on top of hers. He wore a light smile looking at the camera, she herself wore a bright smile her hands placed over his at her waist. The eight was a picture of the group with out Robin showing Cyborg as the new leader of the Teen Titans. The ninth picture was taken when Beast Boy and Cyborg were in a breakfast cook off. Eggs, tofu, meat, milk, and soy were thrown all over the place. Her mother laughed at the mess and the scared faces of Beast Boy and Cyborg at the threatening glare coming from Raven in the picture.
“Well that’s about it mom. So what did you think?” Starfire said not wanting her mother to see the intimate holographic of her and Robin. She had kind of left the more private activities she and Robin preformed from her mother.
“They were are very interesting. I see why you picked Robin…He is quite the looker; very handsome. Isn’t there one more picture though?” Her mother pried.
“Uh, ya, but I am sure you wouldn’t want to see it. It’s kind of blurry/out of focus and such.” She blushed at her mother’s comments about Robin.
“Now of course I want to see that picture. I promise I wont say anything.” Her mother begged.
“Alright, as long as you don’t get mad. Like I said before Robin and I are engaged.” Star said as she flipped to the last hologram.
It was the one were she was sitting on his lap while they ate lunch together. They were feeding each other and she had decided to have some fun, she missed his mouth smashing part of the sandwich all over the side of his cheek. He had been stunned at first but as soon as she had burst into a fit of giggles he decided to return the thoughtful gesture. Soon they were covered with their entire lunch laughing hysterically at each other. The laughing subsided when Robin captured her lips in a sweet kiss that turned more passionate by the second. The picture shows them lip locked with one of Robin’s hands at the very lower part of her back and his other cupping the back of her neck tilting her slightly backwards. While her hands were slipped up under the back of his shirt freely roaming her territory.
“Well, that picture was certainly not blurry or out of focus at all.” Her mother stated raising and eyebrow at her daughter in question.
“You said you wouldn’t say anything.” Starfire said getting uncomfortable in front of her mother. She knew she was going to ask the question she really didn’t want to answer.
“So did you two get any further than that?” Her mother asked her the dreaded question.
Star visibly gulped the invisible lump that had suddenly formed in her throat. She really didn’t want to tell her mother what else she and Robin did. Her mother would be disappointed in her if not ashamed of her. But she didn’t regret being with Robin either. And she was not ashamed that she did it either. So she decided to tell her mother the truth.
“Yes. Actually we did.” Star said staring strait into her mother’s eyes.
“You did. How far?” Her mother was surprised that she had said it so confidently.
“Very intimate. The farthest you can go physically when you love someone.” Starfire expressed her gaze never straying.
“You didn’t?” Her mother asked unconvinced.
Starfire only nodded without hesitation to confirm her mother’s question.
“Oh, Star. You know you were supposed to save yourself.” Her mother scolded.
“But I did save myself. I saved myself for the one I truly loved and who truly loved me.” Star said hoping to convince her mother that she did the right thing.
Her mother knew she did save herself for someone special and was proud of her. If only this Robin character was here to save her now and take her back. Take back all the hurt and pain that was embedded in her daughter’s heart and soul.
“I know sweety. I just want you to be happy. Don’t worry on day it will all turn out right.” Her mother said as she got up to leave and gave her daughter a hug.
“I wish I could help you but I can’t. I hope you can understand.” She whispered in her daughter’s ear as she left to exit her room.
Star watched her mother leave. Something about what her mother just said didn’t sound right. Something was wrong and Starfire knew it. Something deceitful was happening in the palace.
“I hope you didn’t tell your daughter anything you were not supposed too.” A shadow spoke to the queen as she walked down the dark hallways away from her daughter’s room.
“Of coarse not.” The queen said threw gritted teeth.
“Because you know what will happen to her if you did.” The shadow threatened.
“If you ever harm one hair on my daughter’s head so help me..” The queen started but was cut short.
“You will what your highness? You are in no position to be making treats.” The shadow growled angerly at the queen.
“You are never going to get away with this and win.” The queen hung her head in defeat.
“Oh, but your highness, your daughter’s wedding to me is soon. I have already won. I never loose.” The shadow said as he left chuckling towards Starfire’s door.
Another knock on the door echoed in Star’s room. Thinking it was her mother she stated for the visitor to come in. She however did not expect to see him. Prince Bluefire entered her room shutting the door behind him.
“What do you want.” Star snarled at him.
“Now, now. Is that anyway to address your soon to be husband.” He smirked at her anger.
“I will never marry you.” She spat at him.
“Oh, but I am afraid you have not choice.” He said darkly getting annoyed with her.
“What do you want with me?” She hissed at him.
“Why you of course. All of you.” He said looking her up and down hungry.
“You will never touch me you bastard.” She said venom dripping from her voice.
With that comment Bluefire lunged at her crushing his lips to hers. Starfire was unprepared for the attack and struggled to get his vile mouth off of hers. He held her hands forcing her back onto the bed. He straddled her waist holding her hands down at her side preventing her from pushing him off. His lips painfully kissed hers as she refused to return the offending offer. He soon had enough of her lips and moved down kissing and bitting roughly at her neck and jaw.
“Get off me you ass-hole.” She said struggling to get him off her.
He just smirked at her and ignored her pleas. He brought both her hands over her head pinning them down with one of his hands. His other hand attacked her breasts, squeezing and pinching through her clothing. Star gasped as she felt his hands on her breasts and threw her head back screaming. Tears began to pour down her face.
“No! Stop! Please Stop!” Starfire pleaded with him as he began to pull up her shirt.
Her screaming pleas to stop only encouraged him to go further. He slowly began to move her shirt upwards above her breasts. Once the shirt was up far enough he pulled her braw up as well, giving him full view of her perfectly matured chest. He smirked down at her as he saw her horrified face. He brought his face down to her peaks and attacked them unmercifully biting, licking, and sucking painfully. Star sobbed harder not due to physical pain but emotional. Robin was the only one allowed to touch her in such a manner. Finally she had, had enough she through her head back and screamed the only name that came to her mind.
“ROBIN!” Star screamed for help to the only one who had ever been there to protect her.
Bluefire stopped his menstruation at the name Star had screamed for. He smiled wickedly as he slowly rose to get off her. Right before he fully got off of her he crushed his lips to her again in a bruisingly way. Once he released her, she immediately curled in a tight ball sobbing desperately.
“He will never come for you. Don’t worry tomorrow you will be mine. I will have all of you. Tomorrow.” He said darkly and walked out slamming the door behind him leaving soul crushed young woman.
Meanwhile back in the dungeon the Titans herd an echoed scream for their former leader. They all tried with all their might to break free and run to their friend in need but it was futile. Cyborg was still physical disabled, missing a key component in his motherboard. Beast Boy had a titanium collar tied to an energy cord keeping him in place no matter what animal her turned into. Raven was shackled with a special metal covering her hands and wrists. Her mouth was tapped shut preventing her from calling on her powers. They all hung their heads in defeat, knowing they were going to break the biggest promise they had ever made.
Beast Boy, Cyborg, Raven, Starfire, and her mother all had one thought that ran through their heads that night.
“We need a miracle.”

“You know the law! You are to marry a prince by or on your 18th birthday. Prince Bluefire will make an excellent husband for you and a indifferent king.” Her father has said raising his voice as he went.

“You are a princess Starfire! And you will begin to act like one, and take up your responsibilities! You will marry the prince like it or not. And you will learn to love him one way or another!” Her father had risen from his thrown to tower over her. His eyes ablaze with anger as his voice boomed over the thrown room.
“You may force me to marry him but I will NEVER LOVE HIM!” She had screamed bloodily, racing out the thrown room doors ignoring her mother’s presence coming down the hall in a frantic search for her friends.
She had run down the corridors in search of her friends to tell them the horrific news.

“And believe me princess, when I play a game I always win!” And with that he disappeared down the hall leaving her trembling on the cold floor.
Starfire began to shake in her bed again clutching her pillow tighter to her face absorbing the relentless pleas of her heart. Today had been almost the worst day of her life. All her hopes and dreams were washed away. At least when Robin disappeared she still had hope but today crushed whatever hope she had left, rendered all she believed false.

“But I don’t like him, let alone love him. How can I marry him?” Star looked up with pleading eyes.
“Oh, don’t worry honey you will learn to love him just like all the other princess this planet has had.” She said sorrowfully, for she wished her daughter did not have to go through this. She had been lucky, she had loved her husband even before they wed.

Her mother knew she did save herself for someone special and was proud of her. If only this Robin character was here to save her now and take her back. Take back all the hurt and pain that was embedded in her daughter’s heart and soul.
“I know sweety. I just want you to be happy. Don’t worry on day it will all turn out right.” Her mother said as she got up to leave and gave her daughter a hug.
“I wish I could help you but I can’t. I hope you can understand.” She whispered in her daughter’s ear as she left to exit her room.
Star watched her mother leave. Something about what her mother just said didn’t sound right. Something was wrong and Starfire knew it. Something deceitful was happening in the palace.
“I hope you didn’t tell your daughter anything you were not supposed too.” A shadow spoke to the queen as she walked down the dark hallways away from her daughter’s room.
“Of coarse not.” The queen said threw gritted teeth.
“Because you know what will happen to her if you did.” The shadow threatened.
“If you ever harm one hair on my daughter’s head so help me..” The queen started but was cut short.
“You will what your highness? You are in no position to be making treats.” The shadow growled angerly at the queen.
“You are never going to get away with this and win.” The queen hung her head in defeat.
“Oh, but your highness, your daughter’s wedding to me is soon. I have already won. I never loose.” The shadow said as he left chuckling towards Starfire’s door.
Another knock on the door echoed in Star’s room. Thinking it was her mother she stated for the visitor to come in. She however did not expect to see him. Prince Bluefire entered her room shutting the door behind him.
“What do you want.” Star snarled at him.
“Now, now. Is that anyway to address your soon to be husband.” He smirked at her anger.
“I will never marry you.” She spat at him.
“Oh, but I am afraid you have not choice.” He said darkly getting annoyed with her.
“What do you want with me?” She hissed at him.
“Why you of course. All of you.” He said looking her up and down hungry.
“You will never touch me you bastard.” She said venom dripping from her voice.
With that comment Bluefire lunged at her crushing his lips to hers. Starfire was unprepared for the attack and struggled to get his vile mouth off of hers. He held her hands forcing her back onto the bed. He straddled her waist holding her hands down at her side preventing her from pushing him off. His lips painfully kissed hers as she refused to return the offending offer. He soon had enough of her lips and moved down kissing and bitting roughly at her neck and jaw.
“Get off me you ass-hole.” She said struggling to get him off her.
He just smirked at her and ignored her pleas. He brought both her hands over her head pinning them down with one of his hands. His other hand attacked her breasts, squeezing and pinching through her clothing. Star gasped as she felt his hands on her breasts and threw her head back screaming. Tears began to pour down her face.
“No! Stop! Please Stop!” Starfire pleaded with him as he began to pull up her shirt.
Her screaming pleas to stop only encouraged him to go further. He slowly began to move her shirt upwards above her breasts. Once the shirt was up far enough he pulled her braw up as well, giving him full view of her perfectly matured chest. He smirked down at her as he saw her horrified face. He brought his face down to her peaks and attacked them unmercifully biting, licking, and sucking painfully. Star sobbed harder not due to physical pain but emotional. Robin was the only one allowed to touch her in such a manner. Finally she had, had enough she through her head back and screamed the only name that came to her mind.
“ROBIN!” Star screamed for help to the only one who had ever been there to protect her.
Bluefire stopped his menstruation at the name Star had screamed for. He smiled wickedly as he slowly rose to get off her. Right before he fully got off of her he crushed his lips to her again in a bruisingly way. Once he released her, she immediately curled in a tight ball sobbing desperately.
“He will never come for you. Don’t worry tomorrow you will be mine. I will have all of you. Tomorrow.” He said darkly and walked out slamming the door behind him leaving soul crushed young woman.
Meanwhile back in the dungeon the Titans herd an echoed scream for their former leader. They all tried with all their might to break free and run to their friend in need but it was futile. Cyborg was still physical disabled, missing a key component in his motherboard. Beast Boy had a titanium collar tied to an energy cord keeping him in place no matter what animal her turned into. Raven was shackled with a special metal covering her hands and wrists. Her mouth was tapped shut preventing her from calling on her powers. They all hung their heads in defeat, knowing they were going to break the biggest promise they had ever made.
Beast Boy, Cyborg, Raven, Starfire, and her mother all had one thought that ran through their heads that night.
“We need a miracle.”
