Unknown To You: Prologue
Disclaimer: I do not own the Teen Titans. Thanks to everyone for their reviews and here's my first try at something other than a one shot...
"Where is she!" screamed Richard. Never had his friends seen him so frustrated, so angry, so...furious...
Flashback
Today had not been a good day. It had just been over two years since Kori and Richard had started dating. They seemed like a perfect couple. Until this morning. He'd gotten up like usual. He turned in his bed, expecting to see Kori's beautiful face next to his. However, she wasn't there. That's weird...he thought. She must be in the common room. He got out of bed and headed towards his destination.
"You guys seen Kori?" he asked the group of friends. Rachel, Vic and Gar lifted their heads and gave the same answer; no. I'll try the bathroom, he said to himself.
"Kori? Are you there?" He knocked cautiously on the door. No answer. Another knock. Still no answer.
"Kori?" Worry was now present in his voice. Why won't she answer? Suddenly, the door opened and Kori came out, eyes puffy and red like she had been...crying. He looked at her, but before he could say anything, she had rushed back to the bedroom. He swore that he had heard her crying.
End Flashback
"Is anyone going to answer me!" He screamed again, anger overtaking his body. The three friends cowered from their normally calm leader. No-one dared tell him. No-one wanted to. No-one was allowed to. Kori had insisted that her friends didn't tell him. She had left the tower about two hours ago, with nothing in her hands and nothing in her pockets. She told the others she would be back soon, she just needed some time to think.
"WHERE IS SHE!"
Flashback
"Kori, what's wrong?" He asked, feeling pain from seeing his loved one in grief. She couldn't look at him. She had done something terrible. He would never forgive her. She had betrayed him.
"Kori?" With courage, she looked up at him and saw the look of pain etched onto his face. She had to tell him. She had to. Even if it meant losing him...
End Flashback
"Fine. If my so called friends won't help me..." He made his way to his jacket and picked up his motorcycle keys. "Then, I'll just have to find her myself." He walked to the doors, rage filling every bit of his body. Never had he felt so...helpless. He couldn't do anything about the rage controlling him, he couldn't do anything to make his friends tell him about Kori, he couldn't do anything about what Kori had done. He just couldn't do anything. Just before he made it to the door, a monotonous voice filled the cold atmosphere of the room.
"Don't go, Richard. She told us she needs some time to think. Just give it to her." The dark haired girl, although never maintaining eye contect with Richard, could tell that he was feeling enraged. He made his way closer to her, until his face was in front of hers. A pure look of fear was on her face. They say eyes are the window to your soul. If they were, Richard's soul was most probably burning, burning with hatred and anger.
"I need to find her. Tell me where she is. Now," he replied through gritted teeth. His face was a picture of evil. Hatred, anger...worry.
"Hey man, leave her alone. Kori told us that she's be back soon. Just wait until then," Vic tried to calm down his friend. Even though he could easily take down Richard, he didn't want to and at the moment, didn't want to try to either. Richard's gaze was fixed onto Vic. Now I know why Rachel was so scared, he thought. You could have easily misinterperated Richard for a vicious Doberman with the look on his face. Garfield sat there, not wanting to get involved.
"Don't you tell me what to do," snarled Richard. He looked at his friends again; they were cowering from him. He gripped his mototcycle keys and headed towards the door. I don't care what they say, I'm going to find Kori...Like it or not.
