Chapter Five-Detention With Destiny III
"Ugh, I'm late as it is!" Brushing her flat-ironed, long, falling blonde waves of curls in her hair, Terra swore. Her blonde long hair was covering half of her face, a bad habit of her's; but when she took of that half amount of hair, her baby blue eyes blinked. She observed the business Jump city in boredom as the red light felt like an hour. She had a pink and black-stripped jacket, a denim pair of tight jeans, and black short boots. Her hoop silver earrings dangled on her earlobes.
She was driving in her red convertible and had just gotten a ticket for parking in the red zone. How was she supposed to know it was red? The red was faded and crusty; it looked green in the shade, too. 'Oh, well, Terra,' she told herself again. 'You could always pay for another ticket.' But that was separate; she was already having a bad day. First-she overslept, and literally fell on the wrong side of the bed. Second-she tried calling Carrey and Babs, but the phone just kept ringing; later she found out that Babs, Carrey, and the others faked being sick to the principal, Mr. Strokes, and he believed them, but it was too late for her to play hooky. Third-if she was late for detention; she'd get another one.
The song 'Shake It Off' by Mariah Carey vibrated in her car and out the window. She parked in the spot that was next to the administration office, hoping to see if they would let her off easy for being tardy. No one was there. 'Oh, that's right, it's Saturday!' Terra thought, giggling a little.
"Raven, just one smile! Puh-weese?" Garfield begged, desperate for taking one picture of the Goth smiling.
"You already know the answer!" Raven growled.
You see, Raven and Garfield were introduced by Kori, and before long, were chatting like they had known each other for years. Right now, Garfield was trying to coax Raven into smiling.
A devilish smirk appeared on Gar's features. He slowly withdrew his flash camera, and asked, "Wanna hear a joke?"
"No."
"Okay, here's how it goes. George Bush's advisor comes in and says: 'Sir, today two Brazilian men died in our war.' Bush says: 'Really? That's terrible-wait, I just have one question.' 'What?' the advisor questions. 'How many is a Brazilian?'!" Gar completed.
A small smile took place on Raven's face, and before she could laugh, a flash of a camera was shot.
"Gar!"
"Sorry, I just couldn't resist!" He tightened the cap on his Pepsi-cola bottle and Pepsi squirted out of his nose when he saw the picture. "Whoa, this is sooo going in the yearbook! You look great like this, you know that?"
She fumed, but inwardly melted. 'Did he say…I look great?'
Mr. Mod barged in the room again. In Mr. Mod's glasses, Garfield's reflection was shown. He inspected the nervous Garfield. "And you…" like a rattlesnake, about to strike on it's prey, Mr. Mod's eyes sharpened. "Wash that paint-er, what do you call it? Hair dye out of your hair. It looks ridiculous."
"WHAT!" Gar screeched, waving his hands in the air. "Are you crazy? It's my individuality!"
"Individuality, smividuality. I do not care," Mr. Mod said firmly, "You will wash out that green 'dye' or receive another detention." Garfield immediately sprung from his chair and reluctantly obeyed.
When Garfield returned, his hair was traceless of green. IT was chocolate brown and still spiky, the only thing green on him was his green eyes. He looked nothing the same, and was much more attractive and unrecognizable. He didn't look like Grass-ass or Garfield anymore…he looked, daresay, hot.
"Excuse me," Richard said politely.
Kori looked to see a boy with jet-black spiked hair and sunglasses rested on his head, he was staring right into her emeralds. "By any chance, would you happen to be related to Carrey Andrews?"
Kori stared at him blankly.
"She said that her 'younger half-sister' was coming to stay as a foreign student from Switzerland. Seeing as you two look identical, I figured you might be her?" Richard explained. "She told me that this sister of hers was naïve so I thought if you were I might as well be kind to her, so the other day, when I did that in the morning…"
Raven wasn't going to stand for Richard easily manipulating her friend like this. "Actually, she's from Greece, and-"
"My name is Kori Andrews," Kori spoke very softly, "Younger half-sister of Carrey Andrews, and I thank you for that in the morning, it was certainly an interesting experience." Leaving out the part about Garfield and later at lunch he had caused her to be here.
"Where are you from?"
"Greece."
"I see, how long are you going to be here?"
Kori looked at him oddly. Then secretively she said: "Until something I know is over."
Richard started to somewhat awkwardly fumble with his jacket's zipper, and Raven had never seen him act this way before. "Well, miss Kori, my name's Richard Grayson. And this is Victor Stone next to me…" Richard motioned at the tall, African-American across from him on his right side.
"Pleased to meet you," the boy, or man, extended his hand for a handshake.
Kori shook it with a firm grasp, and Victor took a double take on her. "Whoa, little lady, BIG handshake! Well alright."
Kori smiled sweetly, "I shall take that as a compliment."
"So, Kori, I'm asking if you wanna be friends," Richard began, "because seeing as you're new here, you might need an extra one."
"How noble of you to ask this!" Kori brightened. "Of course we can be friends! This calls for the 'group hug'!" Then she enveloped all three: Victor, Raven, and Richard in a tight squeeze.
"You're touching me." Raven said, but reluctantly hugged.
The main door was surprisingly unlocked. Great, a cheerleader in detention. Cheerleaders don't do detention. She was actually lucky it was Saturday, no one would ever know she was here. Then she remembered those girls. She was going to be alone with them. Maybe she wasn't so lucky after all.
Terra entered the threshold of the main door, and headed towards the detention room: 101. She heard voices and six heads in the shadows. Whether it was laughter, yelling, or just talking in general. She wondered what all the commotion was about as she twisted the doorknob.
"Um, excuse me?"
Everyone stopped what they were doing. Their attention turned to the blonde blue-eyed girl. Some, of the guys of course, took interest…until they realized it was Terra Markov. All, except for Garfield, who continued to look and her up and down.
"Sorry I'm late," she apologized, her eyes trailed down Garfield's as his did her's. She unzipped her jacket, and her shirt stated in big red letters: 'Tall, blonde, and sexy!'. That shirt made her more appealing to Garfield.
"Nice shirt, if only it said: 'short, blonde, and horny', then it'd suit her." Raven remarked, and Garfield stopped staring, trying to suppress his laughter.
Mr. Mod, yet again, returned. "Alright, bathroom break!" Everyone stood up and headed outside, even if they didn't need to go, except for Raven and Terra.
Garfield excused himself to go to the bathroom, "I gotta go before I piss from all this laughter!" Then he left along with the others.
Terra strolled over to Raven, her blue eyes rolling and an 'ugh' was heard from her snobbish voice as she looked down upon Raven, nose high in the air.
"Oh, it's such a drag, isn't it?" Terra began, fanning herself with her magazine, as well as capturing Raven's attention. "That cute boy you were talking to wasn't even paying attention to you, but me. Imagine that. After all, he may be cute, but I just met him!"
Raven slammed her book hard on her desk. "Please, Gar does not like you, nor will he ever. Maybe if you heard me talking, since you always eavesdrop and all, you'd have the pleasure of knowing that Gar and I both agreed that your shirt would perfect if it said: 'short, blonde, and horny'!"
Unfortunately, that had no impact on the blonde bitch. "Just as I guess you didn't see him checking me out, obviously, who can blame him?"
"Give me a break, Terra, Gar may be unpopular, and low in your eyes-but give him some credit, he's not desperate."
"I see…you seem a little protective. Like him, huh?" Terra snorted, taking out her nail file.
Raven had had enough with her type. Her body paralyzed and froze once Terra spoke. Like him…butterflies came in her stomach. 'No…he isn't…you aren't, Raven…worth the time of him.'
"…"
"Well I guess that answer's my question, doesn't it? So let's just assume you shut up like any good little freak would and have some hope I won't try to win him?" Terra smirks, thinking proven herself the winner of the argument.
"Well then, let's hope you don't feel too shocked when he rejects you." Raven shot back.
"I was just about to say the same to you."
Raven flipped her off, "All the same, whilst you are wasting your time 'telling me off' I'm going to go see Bee and Kori."
Just before she walked out the door, Terra seized her last chance to provoke Raven, or provoke Raven furthermore by now. "I hope you know that your actions just caused me to make me, along with Babs and another girl, will make you sorry along with your friends, so watch your back!" Raven just kept on walking, rolling her eyes.
"…And then, I had had enough, so I said…" Bee went on and on about how much she couldn't stand that Victor. Kori grinned, in truth, she found Victor sweet. Him and Bee were just having a small rivalry, but actually, they made a good couple (something of which she did not tell Bee and Victor).
"Friend Bee, what do you think of Richard?" Kori decided to start conversation.
Bee, still rambling about how arrogant Victor was, paused to gap. "That spiky-ass haired boy? Girl, trust me, you do not wanna get mixed with him. After all, he is a reason you're here. Remember that girl's fury after she found out about what had happened?"
"Still…even though you are right and he did attempt to humiliate friend Garfield, and if not for me, Garfield would have been embarrassed…it was considerate of him to do that."
Bee grinned, "So it was considerate of him to look handsome, I take it?" Making Kori's face flush, burning red; and since she was a redhead, it kind'a added to her embarrassment.
"No and yes…but he is sweet, for I have talked to him today."
"Lucky you." Bee's vice dripped with sarcasm as she tied on a blue bandanna. Kori heaved a sigh, Bee still didn't convince her. She walked out the bathroom with kaput hope.

Mr. Mod had slammed the door upon, yelling: "Alright, you troublemaking kids, detention's over!" Everyone felt like clapping their hands as if a boring three-hour movie had just ended. They automatically piled out, one by one, but what they didn't realize was this had been a detention with destiny.
Hey, everyone, thanks for reading this chapter and reviewing. My internet connection wasn't working for a while because one of the computer plug thing-ys got water on it and yeah it took sometime to fix the mess but it started working again two days ago I just had to read all my reviews to see if I got ten actually I got twenty or more.
Oh yeah I hope it didn't seem too cheesy the next chapter, "The Mixed Six" will be more eventful. I'm serious. Do you know how hard it was making Richard and Kori friends with him being a jerk and all? Really hard for me. But anyhoo, thanks for your patience. You all rock.
Oh yeah about that joke Garfield made I hope I didn't offend anyone, it was intenionlly un-offensive.
And tell me whether or not Terra was too bitchy or not bitchy enough. I'm going to have a Terra/Beast Boy/Raven love triangle. I'm going to make Terra act all sweet and hopeless to Beast Boy (Garfield) and Beast Boy have to decide whether he likes "sweet & cute" Terra (in his head) or dark & monotone Raven.
Bat Girl II in this story I called Barbie in the second, third, and fourth chapters, but now I'm going to call her just Babs. "Barbie" was just a little too much nobody's that preppy and Babs is VERY OCC (out of character) in this story. Actually I love Bat Girl but Kitten who people call Katrina nowadays in most high school fics is overused. I remember Jackalobe saying Terra was overused, but she was right, but half wrong because Terra in my opinion isn't in high school fics, but in regular TT fics. Kitten is annoying in EVERY way and I don't like using her unless she isn't preppy.
I mean it seems to like people are making these "blonde, slutty, dumb" girls like Kitten or OC's in high school fics. But they don't seem bitchy. Babs and Terra are going to REALLY BITCHY in this story.
Oh yeah! Try to find the hidden message in here:
Rangers leaned silently at vista veer.
Do you get the hidden message? If you do and guess it right, I'll dedicate chapter seven to you not six because seven is probably going to be the third or fourth best chapter.
-Peace out.
