Teen Titans: Matrix Reloaded
Chapter 19: Geo and Raven chat
Author's note: this chapter is dedicated to DarkBlackfire. Happy Birthday!
Raven laid down on the couch resting from her wounds while Geo sat next to her. She was breathing in and out from her mouth as she slept. Geo puts his hand on her head to feel her temperature.
"Raven, you're cold," he said, "Here take my leather jacket. It will keep you warm."
Geo takes off his leather jacket and puts it on Raven's chest. He only has his black tank top on that shows his muscular body. He looks around the room to find pieces of wood to make a fire. He found some on the floor and on the broken walls. He took them and placed them in the middle of the room where Raven is. He took out his lighter from his pocket and set the pieces of wood on fire.
As Geo set next to the fire to keep himself warm, he heard Raven groaning. She was finally awake. Raven opened her eyes to see Geo next to a fire in the middle of the room.
"Geo," she said, "What happened? And where is everybody?"
"We were hit by an RPG," Geo said, "You were knocked out completely, so I had to rescue you. I ordered everyone to go to the exit of the Abandoned Sector and I have to take you to a safe location."
"Where are we in the Abandoned Sector?"
"We are in a apartment complex that is 32 miles away from the exit."
"But why did you tell everyone to leave? We could've made it."
"I can not leave you behind. I had to do the right thing. You are my best friend Raven and friends have to look out for each other."
"Gee, thanks."
"Don't mention it."
As Raven finished talking, Geo's radio went off. Geo answers the call.
"Geo here," he said.
The caller was Morpheus, using a satellite phone.
"Geo," he said, "You mind telling me why haven't you arrive at the exit of the sector and haven't showed up at Metro City with your team?"
"My partner, Raven, was injured, sir. I had to go and aid her. I ordered the team to go on without me."
"What's your current position at the sector?"
"We are located at east Bravo sector 9256. Located at an apartment complex. FBI Agents are surrounding us. Requesting immediate backup and vehicle convoy evacuation, over."
"Negative on the EVAC situation, Geo. As of right now, you and Raven are on your own."
"Come on, Master. I know there is a way to get out of here. Send Niobe and Ghost to help me out, here. They will provide with air cover and my team would provide ground cover."
"That's impossible, Geo. That is not your mission."
"When have I ever completed any of your missions? I did them all and I could swear that I will not give up. My team will complete this mission."
Morpheus thought for a minute and said, "I don't like the sound of this. However, I will accept your favor. But you promise me that you will get your ass back here alive. You understand me?"
"Yes, sir."
"Don't worry. We'll get you out of there, Geo. I promise you."
"Roger, Geo out."
Geo turns off his radio in order to save battery power.
"What happened," Raven said to Geo.
"My master is going to send us some help," Geo said, "We shall stay put until help arrives."
Raven looks at Geo who is still looking at the fire.
He is so brave, Raven thought. I did not know he cared so much about me.
"Geo," Raven said, "Do you want to...sit next to me on the couch?"
"Sure," he said as he got up and sat down next to her.
"Geo, I ask you a question?"
"Go ahead."
"Early, you and your brother had an argument and he said that your girlfriend is stupid. Who was your girlfriend?"
"She was the fourth member of my team."
"What's her name?"
"Carla Stone."
"Nice name."
"Thanks."
"How come we never met her?"
"Because she...died a year ago."
"Oh, I'm sorry."
"It's okay. It's all my fault I didn't protect her."
"What did she look like?"
"About my height. She had black hair. She was athletic and very smart. We met each other in my master's training school."
"Did she graduated?"
"Yes. Did you have a boyfriend?"
"Yes. His name was Crow."
"How come I never met him?"
"He's dead."
"Oh, I'm sorry. What happened to him?"
"My father, Trigon, killed him because he didn't want him to marry me in the future. Crow was the prince of Azarath. He was the prince of Azar, the king of Azarath. Whatever happened to Carla?"
"She was killed by a sniper during one of my missions last year. It's a long story."
"Can you tell me?"
"Very well. I'll tell you."
