Chapter 9
"Kori Anders please come with me" an old nurse held my hand gently, but I wouldn't leave Richard's side.
"No, I'm staying with him" I stated stubbornly, while I sat sprawled beside Richard, holding his head.
"Please Miss Anders come with me" the nurse pleaded, giving me a gentle pull.
"No, I'm staying with him!" I yelled, moving closer to Richard.
"Kori, you should go" Richard cracked a smile, and winced as he moved his head.
"No, I'm staying with you!" I persisted, shaking my head.
"Shen'efa Koriand'r, es't gon'u shakle'r" he coughed slightly and I started crying silently.
He had said 'Stubborn Koriand'r, I'll be fine'
"Non Richard, I sh'ell stre't" I had told him 'No Richard, I shall stay'
He laughed silently, and I turned to the nurses, doctors and security, who were staring at us, confused.
"You may take him, but he is to be as close to me as possible" I ordered, narrowing my eyes.
They nodded and a doctor said,
"He shall be in the room down two doors from your own Miss Anders"
I nodded, and gave Richard one last glance before he was placed on a stretcher.
"I levon'r estl'a, be'r sav'e"
I nodded and watched as he wheeled away. How could he say that, after all I said to him, how could he say that he loved me, and that he wanted me to be safe?
"Miss Anders, please come back to your room" the old nurse asked, and I let her lead me back into bed.
"I don't mean to pry Miss Anders, but what was Richard Grayson doing outside your room on the floor, with a large cut on his head?" she asked, averting her eyes.
I looked at her for a minute, noticing the lines beneath her eyes and across her forehead, the tired look in her kind eyes, the stray wisps of gray hair hanging out of its bun.
"He and I came to a disagreement, that's all" I told her, and she smiled slightly
"Alright dear, if you need anything push the button above the bed and ask for Betsy, that's me" she smiled warmly at me and I smiled back,
"Thank you Betsy, I will"
I watched as she turned the light off, closed my window, and left the room.
TTT
I awoke to the bright rays of light streaming through my window and the soft sound of voices. I kept my eyes closed, listening.
"Do you think she's ok?" It was distinctively Gar's voice.
"Our girl's as tough as nuts, she can survive anything!" definitely Bee
"Yeah. But should we tell her?" that was Vic, and tell me what?
"I don't think she'll be able to handle it, not now anyway" Rachel's voice.
"Well, we didn't take it to well!" Gar again.
"No, you didn't take it too well, me and Bee took it fine, we already new about each other, and you two knew about each other, but no-one knew about Kori save you Rachel, and no-one knew about Richard, a.k.a Nightwing, and then Rachel found out, and so-"
"Dudes, I'm confused!" That was most definitely Gar interrupting Vic.
"You're always confused Gar!" Vic again.
"Stop teasing him Vic!" Rachel scolding Vic.
"Just cause you love him!" definitely Bee.
At this point I couldn't help but laugh loudly, and I laughed untill tears ran down my cheeks.
When I finally stopped laughing I looked at my friends, they stared at me with wide eyes astonishment.
"Uh, Kori, you're awake!" Gar screeched, pointing at me.
"No duh!" growled Vic, glaring at him.
"Hey, cut it out, our girls in hospital, give it a rest!" Scolded Bee, stepping between the two fighting men.
"So, what were you gonna tell me?" I asked, sitting up.
"Uh…" Gar looked at Rachel, who nodded to Vic, who sighed to Bee, who then pushed Gar towards the foot of my bed.
"Right, uh Kori, we all umm know that Rachel's from Azarath, now anyways" he muttered, shifting nervously from one foot to the other.
I stared at him, then at Rachel, and then at Vic and Gar.
"Oh for crying out loud, I can't stand this, Gar's a shape shifter, Rachel's from Azarath, Vic's a half robot and I have DNA of a bee in me!" Cried Bee, panting and staring at me.
I stared at them for a moment, taking everything in. They couldn't be lying, knowing that Rachel was from Azarath, could they? They were my friends, they wouldn't lie!
"Kori, are you ok?" asked Rachel, seating herself on the edge of my bed.
"Oh, uh yeah well…Not really no. My brother showed up last night after twelve years and tells me he's getting married and is the leader of the most feared gang of our solar system. Richard Grayson walks in on us, starts fighting Ryan, gets blown through the door and out into the hall by one of Ryan's attacks, cuts his head open, really deep, speaks to me in my own language, tell me he loves me and wants me to be safe, and you're all telling me you have SUPERPOWERS!" I shrieked, looking at them wildly.
"Dudes, I think she needs help" Whispered Gar, backing away from me.
"Don't make me rearrange you!" snapped Rachel, glaring at him.
"Rearrange him?" I asked, calming down slightly.
"Yeah, Gar was imitating a woman on the telly and walking around like a female, which pissed Rachel off. She ended up giving him a woman's chest and said…" Vic trailed off,
"I said that if he wanted so much to be a female, all he had to do was ask" Rachel ended, glaring at Gar.
"It was damn right hilarious!" laughed Bee.
"So…you all have powers?" I asked, getting back to my original question.
"Yeah, watch!" exclaimed Gar.
I watched him for a moment and then he disappeared, in his place sat a small green kitten with large eyes, mewing softly.
"Oh X'hal" I breathed, looking at the kitten.
Gar changed back, looking proud of himself.
"Why green?" I asked, confused.
Gar blushed deeply,
"Well, uh…I don't really know, but my hair isnt exactly dyed" he muttered, looking at the ground.
"Oh but you were adorable!" I squealed, clasping my hands together.
Gar looked up and stuck his tongue out at Rachel,
"See, she thinks I'm adorable!"
"Wow, did you just 'adorable' in one sentence without getting it mucked up?" gasped Rachel, feigning mock astonishment.
"Oh shut up, witch!" he snapped, looking away.
"Grass stain!" spat Rachel, standing up.
"Goth!" he shrieked, backing away,
"Snot rag!" she thundered, advancing on him, hands out stretched.
"Please don't hurt me!" he whimpered, and changed into a mouse, scurrying under my bed.
Rachel growled and returned to my bed.
"Well, since those two love birds have gone through they're daily routine, watch this!" exclaimed Vic.
I watched as he took of the ring he always wore on his middle right finger and the exact same one in the exact same place on his other hand. Vic always wore those rings, I had never seen him take them off.
Then I held my breath as Vic seemed to start to blur, and in his place stood a half robot with shining blue body parts.
"Call me Cyborg!" he shouted proudly, pulling his arm up and showing off his bulging metal muscles.
"And you can still call me Bee" muttered Bee, and I watched as sh shrunk to the size of a fly, ok, make that a Bee and then grew to her original size, but she had bee's wings extending from her back.
"Pretty cool, huh?" she did a 360 turn, and I marveled at her wings, incandescent and shiny with near invisible veins.
"Oh X'hal" I muttered again, glancing at me friends.
Gar came out from under the table and changed back into his normal form, staying away from Rachel.
"You can call me Beast Boy!" Gar exclaimed, grinning like an idiot.
"Why Boy?" I asked,
"You are no longer a boy, you are a man!"
"Makes me sound cooler" he said, leaning against the wall.
"So, you are all…super heroes?" I asked, gazing at everyone.
"Well, we haven't actually done anything super yet" muttered Gar, grinning sheepishly.
"The only one who does the whole super hero thing is Richard" muttered Rachel angrily.
I freaked.
"Richard, he is here, in hospital, like I told you before, and is hurt and I mrus't go'r le kreng'lr my'r cher're, es't nev'r fovrg'r mesl'r if'r he'n hur'r!" I cried, jumping out of the bed.
"Uh, Kori, you're speaking in Tamaranian!" exclaimed Rachel, standing up.
"And why haven't they changed your clothing, normally you'd be in a smock thing" muttered Rachel.
I looked at myself, and noticed I was still wearing my tube top and short shorts, someone had taken off my boots.
"I don't care!" I shouted, running from the room.
I looked left and right, trying to decide which way Richard was. The doctor had said two doors down…but which way? I couldn't walk into any old room, someone could be…eww.
I turned right and skidded down the hall, stopping at 256. Must be it, it has to be it.
I calmed myself down, taking deep slow breaths, and then quietly opened the door.
"Nice to see you"
I nearly collapsed in relief; Richard was sitting up in his bed, his head bandaged and his left arm in a sling.
"Uh, nice to see you too" I muttered. Suddenly, now that I'd seen him, the burning fury came back into the pit of my stomach, reminding me of why I hated him.
"So, you came here just to stare at me?" he asked, cocking a brow handsomely.
"No, I er…came to talk" I said, sitting down on the edge of his bed.
"Thought so, probably wondering how I know your language, and who you really are, princess?" he asked, smirking.
I growled,
"Oh shut up or I'll break your arm!" I snapped, glaring at him haughtily.
He laughed,
"You could, easily, I know your strength Koriand'r and how you are stronger then twenty mortal men"
"Yeah well…how?" I asked bitterly, gazing at his bandaged head.
"Let's just say…me and Speedy have had a few wild adventures" he muttered, smiling.
"Speedy, the archer, as in Speedy with ginger hair and sexy spandex suit?" I asked eyes wide open.
Richard grimaced,
"Yeah well, sexy wouldn't be the right word. Besides, I wear spandex!" He protested, glaring at me.
"So, you lied!" I snapped, narrowing my eyes at him.
I winced and I could tell he was hurt.
"I had to" he muttered.
"No you didn't!" I exclaimed, standing up,
"You didn't have to lie; you could have told me the truth!"
Richard sat up further, glaring at me,
"Why, so you could hate me even more!"
"I wouldn't have hated you, you saved my life!" I exclaimed, frustrated.
"Exactly, so you wouldn't have hated me even if I wasn't me, but because I am Nightwing, you hate me!" he growled, leaning on his elbow.
I stood silently. He had me there; I hated him because he was Richard. If Nightwing hadn't of been him, I wouldn't have hated him, because I didn't know who he was.
"I'm right, aren't I!" said Richard, still glaring,
"You know I'm right!" he persisted.
I could feel the tears pricking behind me eyes. I couldn't stand this, all this news, all this drama. I turned away from him, heading back towards the door.
"Kori wait, where are you going?" He shouted after me, getting up from the bed.
I turned around slowly, the tears running down my face silently,
"I'm going home. To my real home, back with Ryan. I never want to see this place ever again"
TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
