My attempt at a tragedy.
I do not own Teen Titans.
Silence was all Jericho could hear as the battle raged on around him. He couldn't hear the crash as Raven was flung into the wall. He heard nothing when Beast boy (in gorilla form) pounded the ground with his massive fists. The only thing he could hear was his loud heartbeat and heavy breathing.
He could see nothing. He didn't see the explosion as Starfire's star bolts collided with the ceiling. He didn't notice a beam of light sail past his left ear. He only saw his shaking hands and the girl in front of him.
No-one else seemed to have noticed. She just lay on the floor; alive, but only just. Her fuchsia pink hair was splayed out on the ground. Her blue eyes her closed. Her skin was pale. Kole was dying.
It had been a lucky shot from someone's gun. Jericho hadn't seen who. One moment she was standing next to him. The next moment, she was on the floor, blood pouring from her side.
Now, he was kneeling beside her. He took her hand. Her eyes flickered open.
"Jericho." she whispered. He smiled faintly. She reached up a hand t touch his face. He held it there, savouring the moment. "I'm sorry Jericho. I never got to tell you this. I love you."
He was stunned. He could feel the tears stinging in the back of his eyes. Slowly, leaned down and kissed her. When he pulled back, she breathed her last and left the world with a small smile on her face. Shaking his head, he tried to feel a pulse in his wrist. He got nothing.
Silence was all Jericho could hear as the battle raged on around him.
He could see nothing except for himself and the body of a girl, lying in front of him.
She was gone.
Another voice he would never hear.
Another pair of eyes he would never see.
But the only girl he would ever love.
Tragedy isn't really my thing. This idea randomly popped into my head one morning and has been bugging me ever since. May have been a complete waste of time but, oh well. Set during some huge battle. Not the one in 'Titans Together', but still a big one. Let's just say the Brotherhood of evil came back and got new equipment and, err, another battle happened.
R&R please!
