When I see your smile, Tears run down my face I can't Replace
Why did he smile that one last time it broke her heart in two. Robin was her closest friend within the Titans aside from Raven anyways
And now that I'm strong I have figured out; how this world turns cold and it breaks through my soul
With him siding with Slade Starfire had to remain strong now matter how much it hurt inside. An enemy is an enemy even if they were once a friend
And I know I’ll find deep inside me; I can be the one
But maybe just maybe she could change his mind before it became too late. And there would be no recovery from it
I will never let you fall (let you fall); I’ll stand up with you forever
Though she didn’t want to fight her friend Starfire knew that there was no choice now, Robin had sided with Slade and was helping him in his thievery. Her heart was telling her to trust Robin and yet he went and did this to them….
I’ll be there through it all (Through it all) ; Even if saving you sends me to heaven
Even if the others thought it was hopeless she still had to try something, anything she could to remind him. So taking a stand she faced him starbolt casting a shadow on her face as they met eyes Starfire lowered her arm and attack.
It’s Okay, It’s okay, It’s okay
“Robin you are my best friend..... I cannot be in a world where we must fight. If you are truly evil then go ahead do what you must…” allowing herself to hover in front of him she met her eyes with his to show him how serious she was.
Seasons are changing; and waves are crashing; and stars are falling all for us
“Starfire no I-” his voice trembled as his hidden eyes met her serious ones. There was still room for her in his heart she could see that. Then something happened causing her great pain.
Days grow longer and nights grow shorter
I can show you I’ll be the one
Her eyes fell shut as her body fell Robin catching her and calling her name. Weakly she called his name the pain ever growing as his face showed doubt.
I will never let you fall (let you fall); I’ll stand up with you forever
Barely she could hear his voice “I’m sorry..” before her world went black.
I’ll be there through it all (Through it all) ; Even if saving you sends me to heaven
When she came to there was a brief moment before Robin attacked again, though this time he was truly fighting them. And she could only watch in horror as he hurt their friends
It’s Okay, It’s okay, It’s okay
Eventually she had no choice but to fight back as well, Starfire couldn’t stand for what he was doing. As the four faced their former friend he only looked upon them blankly before making his escape.
‘Cuz you’re my (‘cuz you’re my) my...
Thinking back on what had caused her and her friends pain Starfire looked to the others after Beast Boy made a comment on it, “I do not think that that was Robin, I think that it is Slade who learned a new trick…”
My true love, my whole heart; please don’t throw that away
At the tower she could only mull over what could change her dearest friends opinion on life. He’d been the one who’d encouraged her to stay on earth. So why would he do something so cruel?
‘Cuz I’m here for you; Please don’t walk away and Please tell me you’ll stay
It was when they scanned Beast Boy they found an oddity, there were thousands if not millions of probes within him, no not just him all of them. She now knew why Robin had done it, it was for them....in a way.
Stay
Maybe there was still time for her to return the favour before it was all lost for them. So she made a plan with the others to ambush Slade, and bring Robin back home.
Use me as you will; Pull my strings just for a thrill
When they arrived she saw that terrible man doing very bad thing to Robin, so Starfire attacked angrily stating “ Leave. Him. Alone.” Quickly he tried to get them to leave fearful of what could happen because of the probes.
And I know that I’ll be okay; though my skies are turning gray
Though none would not leave without him not on his own. So she along with the others endured the pain watching as he made a final stand showing that he was never lost after all. At the tower she could only apologize for thinking badly of her friend but he brushed it off knowing that it wasn’t her fault.
