Thank you for the support you guys, I am sorry the last chapter was waaaay to short but I was completely stuck. I had two ways of having that chapter end. I hope this will be a chapter that will make up for it!

Chapter three:
Fallen memories

Kori fell into his arms. Richard quickly took a look around to see a running shadow in the distance. He looked back down at the woman in his arms and slowly laid her on the ground.


My mind raced quickly. Bring her to the Hospital? No…that would be bad. I shouldn't stay public for to long…home isn't an option either, Slade would kill me. I scanned her; it was a shot to the shoulder. She grimaced as the pain surged threw her body. Kori's hand unclenched that was when I noticed her car keys. The red head was now unconscious, so I carried her back to the parking lot. I assumed the convertible was hers, considering it was the only car left. I raced inside and laid her down in the passenger seat as I took the wheel. But still, where to go? That's when I opened the visor to see a driver's license and a key fell onto my lap. Perfect! Now I have a destination and a house key.
He drove quickly to the given address to find the coffee shop. He carried her upstairs to find her own apartment. Richard laid her onto the bed and began to remove the bullet.


Kori woke up slowly to be blinded by the sunlight. As soon as her eyes adjusted she found that she was in her bedroom once more.

"Wow…what a dream…" She whispered lowly. As she moved to brush her bangs from her eyes Kori realized she couldn't. "What…happened to me?" She said looking at her shoulder; it was bandaged.

"K-Kori?" A voice murmured. The woman turned to meet eyes with Richard.

"Rich…It is you…"

"Yes…I was wondering; how do I know you?" He said slowly. Kori furrowed her brows in confusion; she was hurt.

"You, do not remember me."

"No, I can't remember anything, ever since I woke up that is, 15 years ago. I woke without a memory of the day before…or any for that matter."

"That is horrible Robin…"

"What?"

"Oh…Robin is what I used to call you, it was a…nickname. As a child you were an acrobat and you loved to fly. And you called me Starfire." She smiled. Robin looked at her and sat at the end of the bed.

"Can you tell me more? More about the boy I was? I have been waiting for this for years."

"Of course." Richard did something that even shocked himself, he grinned. "We met at the circus. I was there as a field trip, I was in an orphanage. You were there as an act. You were a member of The Flying Graysons, along with your parents. That day was your first appearance. But something went wrong, the wires were cut." Kori stopped and looked at Richard. He nodded with a solemn look for her to continue, "Your parents died that night, and you were brought to the orphanage." His eyes widened. "I am…sorry," Kori said looking down.

"It's okay…I had to know, continue please."

"At first you kept to yourself, you would always stay by the big oak tree and brood. One day this kid named Johnny was picking on me. You intervened and ever since we were best friends. About two years later you disappeared…I never saw you again." Kori began to cry, "Even after I was adopted I still thought of you everyday."

"Kori…Star I-"
"When I found out who cut your parents rope I dedicated my life to putting that man behind bars, I became a detective."

"Who killed my parents?"

"A man named Slade." Richard's eyes widened greatly.


How was it? Good I hope?
