"But how?" Kori said under her breath. Richard looked like he had been turned to stone. Ella looked back and forth between her two friend; Richard and Kori.

"Who's that?" she questioned the Tammorainian.

"Kitten."

"Oh," Ella whispered with sudden realization. "Oh!" Katherine walked up to the King and Queen and curtsied.

"Suck-up," Kori said through gritted teeth.

"Salut," Katherine said happily, " I am honored." She certainly sounded French. The Queen smiled and the king motioned to Richard, who had been trying to escape without being noticed.

"Have you met your betrothed?" he asked the princess. Katherine turned to Richard.

"Your royal hie-ness," she said, curtsying for Richard. He glared at her.

"Kitten." She gave him a questioning look.

"'Ow (A.N. 'Ow is really How?) did you-" She froze. "Roby-poo?" Kori growled. Richard nodded. "I do not believe it-"

"You better believe it," he said. Katherine grinned. The King and Queen looked confused.

"You two…know each other?" the Queen asked. Richard shook his head and Katherine nodded. The King looked relieved.

"That's good, why don't we go and leave the lovebirds in peace," she said, exiting, followed by her husband and ruby-red-haired son and Moddy. Once they were out the door, Logan and the others ran to Richard and Katherine. She slinked sexily around him and then stopped and looked up into his eyes.

"I was (A.N. pronounced 'Waz') unaware zat you were ze prince," she said softly, placing a hand on his chest. Richard backed away.

"Me too," he said shakily. Kori growled and would have pounced on Katherine if Tania wasn't holding the back of her shirt.

"Back off," Richard said, pushing her away. He whirled around. "How did you get out of jail?"

Katherine shrugged. "I am ze princess. Duh," she added. "But zat is not important now. What is important is that I will soon be your qween." Richard shivered. Kori pushed forward.

"You're not yet!" she pointed out happily. Katherine turned to face her.

"Who are you?" she asked, the tone of her voice suggesting that she really meant 'What are you doing here?' Richard placed his arm around Kori's shoulder.

"This is Starfire." Katherine shut her eyes, trying to remember. Her eyes snapped open angrily.

"You are zat girl who kept interrupting me when I had my prom because you were jealous of me and Richard!" Her smile turned evil. "But you cannot stop us now. We will be wed and you will, how you say, 'deal.'

"Evil-much?" Tania whispered to Logan, who nodded in agreement.

"I would like to raise a toast to my son's new fiancé, the princess of France, Katherine!" The king boomed across the long table in the huge palace dining hall. Everyone except the ex-titans raised their glasses and clinked them together.

"Speech, speech, speech!" the courtiers and lords who had been invited demanded. Katherine stood up, silencing them with one hand. Her golden hair matched perfectly with her red dress.

"Zhank you, zhank you," she said. "I would like to zhank my parents and myself. I woed (A.N. That is the pronounciation) also like to zhank my almost-new husband, Richard." Richard noticed everyone cheered except for Logan, looking very uncomfortable in a black tux, Tania in a vibrant orange colored-dress which made her stand out, Ella in a raven-black outfit, looking more dead than ever and Kori looking beautiful in a pale green sea foam colored strapless dress. Her hair was pinned up, with one piece of hair hanging down on the side of her face. Kori caught him staring and smiled to which he turned away in embarrassment.

"Let's eat!" said the king and queen and suddenly, though not surprisingly, hundreds of servants came forth to deliver silver platters of food to the awaiting people. Logan, after finding out that his meal was meat after the servant had given it to him, threw up all over Katherine's dress. She shrieked and tried to brush it off, the bits of undigested food falling off in huge chunks.

Score, Logan thought happily before he vomited again.

"Was that funny or what?" Richard asked Kori, still chuckling. She giggled.

"It was the perfect timing too." They were walking down the beach together, holding hands while each held their shoes in their free hands. They had driven down after dinner to escape the crowds and most especially, Katherine. Kori smiled.

"This is so beautiful," she said, looking up at the sky. The sun was now setting, making the sky turn the colors of the rainbow.

"Yeah," Richard said, more so looking at Kori than the sky. He stopped. She turned around.

"What's wrong?" she asked. He took her hands.

"I know I have to marry Katherine, but I'll always love you," he said. She looked up, once again, green meeting blue.

"I love you too," she said softly. He leaned down and they kissed.

"So? What happened? Details! Give me details!" Tania pestered Kori the next morning after breakfast. Ella bumped into them on their way down.

"What's going on?" she asked, sensing the excitement in Tania.

"Kori went out again with Richard last night and she won't tell me if they kissed or not!" Tania complained to Ella. Ella looked interested.

"Do tell," she squealed. Kori rolled her eyes.

"He just told me that even though he has to marry Katherine, he'll always love me."

"That is so cute!" Tania sighed. Ella grinned.

"Totally," she added enthusiastically.

"Kori?" came a different voice. Kori turned. It was Sean.

"Hey," she said happily. Sean looked troubled. "What?" she asked. Sean leaned down and whispered three words in her ear.

"Richard loves Katherine."

"What?" Kori looked hurt. Then she smiled. "Nice try, but I know for a fact that Richard hates Katherine." Sean still looked uncertain. "Come on, let's go for a walk to take your mind off this," Kori suggested.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Sean looked down at Kori while they walked. She was really very pretty, even in just ordinary clothes. They walked past a room. Kori froze and walked slowly back to the entrance. She gasped. Richard was kissing Katherine! She felt tears well up in her eyes and she ran, droplets streaming down her cheeks, splashing to the ground. Sean grinned.

"This falls out better than I could have hoped for."

Omg, I feel so sad now...tear tear, okay I'm better.
