Summary
Starfire has formed a new friendship with Stargirl and the two are enjoying a "Girls' Night Out" in Space. But the two put themselves in great danger when they become the primary targets of the Reach, now led by Maxima, who had overthrown Black Beetle and taken over his Scarab to become the monstrous "Beetle Queen", who seeks to convert the two as her "Reach Furies". The Titans end up getting help from Superman, Green Lantern, Star Sapphire and Blue Beetle to save the two girls and defeat the Reach.

Plot
The Titans are aided by Static, Toymaster and Blue Beetle in battling against Reach androids which took over Gizmo's latest invention and converted it as their own weapon. Just then, the robots are defeated by Starfire and the incoming Stargirl, who combine their might (despite having not tried before) to obliterate the machines. As the two girls rejoice over victory, a shadowed sinister figure watches them both through one of the destroyed robots yelling: "I want these two!".

As their fellow Titans and the Leaguers view the damaged robots in search of answrs about their next moves on Earth, Starfire and Stargirl exchange very friendly complements over their performance. Stargirl suggests that they should rejoice it a Girls' Night Out in Space. Starfire accepts and the two take off. Along the way, the two enjoy themselves in a series of amusement events across Space (riding in a Space Roller Coaster projected by Mogo the Living Planet, who supports their fun, swimming in a water planet with Alien Whales, dancing with the Zaramons, etc.). Their fun is interrupted when another Reach warriors ambush them in their Mothership, as their new leader, calling herself the "Beetle Queen", voices her plans to make the two girls her "Reach Furies".

Starfire and Stargirl suddenly get help from Space Cabbie in evading the Reach Mothership as a chase across issues. Meanwhile, on Earth, the heroes continue researching the mech until they are confronted by Black Beetle, who was stripped off his Scarab by Almeracian Queen Maxima (who turns out to be the true identity of the Beetle Queen. Stunned by this, the heroes manage to take off in Space in sear h of the girls. Thanks to Cabbie's help, Starfire and Stargirl find a hideout in a unknown planet inhabitted by a alien race called the Hammer Tribe while Cabbie uses two mannequins ressembling the girls to bait the Reach away. There, the duo discover that the Hammer Tribe is in fear of the Reach since some of their technology fell in the hands of the Lizardriders, a band of raiders which ride on lizard-like horses. The two girls are found by the League and the Titans, who, after some talk, agree to help the Tribe. The heroes defeat the Lizardriders and save their hostages, but are confronted by the Reach and their Queen, who were not fooed by Cabbie for too long.

As Terra and Star Sapphire shield the Hammer Tribe, the Leaguers and the Titans battle the Reach. Beetle Queen challenges Starfire and Stargirl in a fight and subdues them. As Stargirl apologises Starfire for endangering her with her idea of the Girls' Night Out in Space, to which Starfire gently forgives her friend for, Beetle Queen attempts to absorb the power of the Star Staff, but fails when the Staff turns out to work only for those it chooses. Taking advantage of that, Starfire and Stargirl once again combine their might like they did before to defeat the Queen and separate Maxima from Black Beetle's Scarab. As Superman and Green Lantern take Maxima to Oa to stand trial, the people of the Hammer Tribe thank the heroes for their efforts before they leave home. There, Starfire and Stargirl exchange more friendly benters before they share a selfie together.
