Setting: The Spirit Club's rooftop at night. Wind howling softly. Aahi — as Starfire — stands alone, lost in thought, staring out over the city lights. Her flame-colored cloak dances in the breeze. She feels alone… until she isn't.
---
🎬 Scene opens:
Starfire holds her glowing bracelet, watching it flicker.
The others have gone to rest, but she couldn't sleep. Not after today's mission — where her powers nearly hurt her team.
The fire inside her was too wild.
Too much.
She breathes out slowly.
---
Suddenly, behind her — a familiar voice.
🪨 Cat Rock (quietly):
> "You don't have to carry the whole fire alone."
---
She turns.
There he is — Cat Rock — leaning against the edge of the rooftop like he belongs to the wind itself.
Confident. Strong. Calm.
And yet… something gentle lingers in his voice tonight.
---
🔥 Starfire:
> "I almost lost control. Again."
---
🪨 Cat Rock:
> "That's because you care."
He walks over, slow, steady.
> "Power without fear is dangerous.
But power with fear… becomes strength."
---
She looks at him. Studies his face under the mask.
His voice. The way he sees her without judgment.
No one speaks to her like this.
No one understands her like this.
---
🔥 Starfire (softly):
> "You're always so sure. So steady. Why?"
---
🪨 Cat Rock (pausing):
> "Because I have someone to believe in now."
---
Her breath catches. She stares.
Did he just say that?
---
He steps closer.
Their hands don't touch — but the space between them pulses like electricity.
---
The wind picks up.
And yet, in that moment, it's like the whole world stills.
---
🔥 Starfire (whispering):
> "Why does it feel like I've known you forever?"
---
🪨 Cat Rock (low):
> "Maybe... your fire was meant to meet my storm."
---
Silence.
Then — the moment.
Her hand moves toward him.
Almost reaching.
But she pulls back.
She can't.
She shouldn't.
She's a leader. A protector.
She can't fall in love...
Right?
---
But as he turns to leave, the wind blows his cloak back and the moonlight hits his profile.
She watches.
And something inside her heart shifts forever.
---
🔥 Starfire (inner monologue):
> "I've faced monsters. Firestorms.
But nothing terrifies me like this…
This feeling.
This name I don't even know.
This boy behind a mask."
---
🔥 Starfire (quietly, to herself):
> "I think I'm falling for you… Cat Rock."
---
> Scene fades with her still on the rooftop — hand on her chest, flame of her bracelet softly glowing, matching the one on her cheek.
Down below, Cat Rock disappears into the shadows — never turning back… but his heart pounding too.
