: Don't own
"Raven what happened?" Gar asked as he pressed his ear against the door, on the other side, Raven had slid down to the floor, with her back against the door.
"N-n-nothing!" She stuttered.
"D-Do you have them to?" Gar asked, his voice concerned. Raven sat there a moment, thinking if she should trust him. After what people in Azerath did to me, I shouldn't trust anyone…
"H-H-Have what?" Raven asked, trying not to sound scared.
"Raven, you can tell me, I seriously won't tell. I only told you about me because I thought I could trust you… Can I?" Gar asked. Raven couldn't believe this, was he trusting her? She sighed then stood up, unlocked all the locks on her door then let him in. She directed him back to the sofas, where they sat in silence.
"I-I'm not n-normal…" Raven stuttered.
"Well neither am I, Raven, I know how you feel of not fitting in with the others, look at me, I'm green!" Gar chuckled.
"Look, I didn't mean to shatter that door knob back on the roof," Raven said as she sighed loudly. "It's just when I get emotions my powers go haywire."
"It's ok, it's not like you were going to trap me up there." Gar chuckled again. Just then, Raven's big grandfather clock sounded midnight and the neighbour across from her pounded on the door, yelling that they were trying to sleep. Raven rolled her eyes and lifted her glowing hand; she chanted a spell and the clock stopped. Gar starred, wide eyed, chocked.
"I-I think you should leave…" Raven said as she stood and held the door open for him, Gar snapped out of it then left for his room.
Meanwhile…
His fingers flew over the keyboard as if they were not connected to a hand. He paused, read it over, backspaced and the started to write again.
"I do not understand what it is you are doing." Kori said as she read over his shoulder.
"I'm sending a message to my "Dad": I'm telling him that you want to help." Richard said as he hit the enter key and sent the message. Kori looked puzzled, and he realized.
"I'm telling him you are going to help and that you are not a threat. So even if he finds out about your powers, he won't assume you are trying to get in my way." he explained. He smiled as her figure loosed, allowing him to know she understood.
"What is it we do now?" Kori asked.
"Now, we rest until my "dad" tracks down our enemy." He said as he started to shut down his computer.
"Well then, I shall se you tomorrow Richard. Goodnight." Kori smiled as she headed for the door.
"Goodnight." Richard said as he stood up, opened the door for her, then closed and locked it when she had walk into her room.
Be-Beep! Be-Beep! Be-Beep! RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
Kori jolted up from her sleep, and alarm sounded throughout the halls, confused, she looked at her clock.
'1:30 am? What is going on?' She thought as she went to open the door. She only had a tang top and pj's on, but who cared when it was 1:30 am? When she opened the door, a burst of flames roared at her.
"Eek!" She screamed loudly then shut the door. She pushed her back against the door and looked around in panic.
"Richard!" She screamed when she realized he might still be in his room, sleeping. She gasped when the hot wood of the door burnt her skin. She yelped in pain then ran over to the window where she saw something or someone fly out of sight. She stood there a moment, recognizing that form, which is until the door burst open and reviled Richard running in, coughing.
"Richard!" Kori gasped then ran over. "Why have you come back?"
"We have to get out of here, and I wasn't going without you." Richard said as he starred into her emerald eyes. Then, the door burst open; the fire hand melted the hinges. Richard had brought a bag and had it securely on his pack.
"Put some of your important stuff in here and let's go!" Richard said as he handed her his back. She refused, and held up her pink one and started to pack furiously. When she was done, they clasped hands and ran through the window, down to ward the pavement below. Just above the ground, Kori slowed down and they landed gracefully. They turned to each other and took a moment, just a moment to look into each other's eyes, then they collapsed into a hug. Soon, reporters and pedestrians crowded them with questions, but they just walked off, ignoring the people yelling after them.
Think about the love inside the strength of heart
Think about the heroes saving life in the dark
Climbing higher through the fire
Time was running out
Never knowing you weren't going to be coming down alive
But you still came back for me
You were strong and you believed
Everything is gonna be alright…-
Kori sat at Raven's desk, writing in one of Raven's extra notebooks with one of Raven's pencils. Why raven? Well because ever since the fire, Kori's living with Raven and Richard is living with Victor. Victor said all four of them, and Gar, would get their money back and live there for free. They all refused of course and wanted to pay, but Victor said he would blast them with his new cannon if he saw money come out of their pockets.
"Kori." Raven said as she looked at her friend from over her book. Kori turned from her desk to face her friend.
"Yes, friend Raven?"
"Did you lose anything valuable in the fire?" Raven asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Yes, I have lostmany of my valuable items." Kori said as she remembered that night of the fire. It was a Friday night, and today was a Sunday.
"Would you like 'em back?" Raven asked as she shut her book and stood up.
"Yes; I would, but how am I toretrieve them?" Kori asked. "They have all melted and 'Burnt' in the fire of flames."
"I know I never told you this but, I have powers and I am willing to get your stuff back, as well as Richard's" Raven said as she went towards the door. "Are you coming?" Kori jumped out of her seat, leaving her unfinished lyrics for later…
"But how is it that you are able to retrieve our belongings?" Kori asked in the elevator as she and Raven headed for the boys' apartment.
"Well, I'm a telepath who can read people's minds, talk to people in their thoughts, teleport, levitate, make portals and more." Raven explained as the numbers changed and the floors flew down.
"I understand, my friend from back home is also a telepath, but I am not from earth. I am from the planet Tameran, and I also have powers." Kori explained with a reassuring smile.
"Really? What can you do?" Raven asked with a raised eyebrow.
"I am able to fly, I have super strength, and I am able to shoot green starbolts from my hands." Kori said as the elevator stopped at the last floor. They reached the only door and knocked.
"Oh it's you two! Come in!" Victor said with a smile and opened the door even wider for them to enter.
"Are Gar and Richard here?" Raven asked as they entered.
"Yeah, Rick's trying to contact his dad and Gar's in the kitchen." Victor said as he pointed out directions.
"Go get Richard. I'll get the pig." Raven said as she headed for the kitchen. Clothes and junk was thrown all over the floor...Wait… is there a floor?
"Richard, we wish to have a word with you in the main room." Kori said as she poked her head in the computer room.
"Oh, hey, sure." Richard said as he stood and followed her back. There they saw Raven, Gar and Victor sitting on the dirty couches.
"Sit down. Ok, Kori and I discussed that we're going to get all of your stuff back." Raven said as the two sat on the love seat.
"How are you gonna do that? All our stuff was burnt in the fire." Richard said it as if it were obvious.
"Friend Raven has abilities, like me. But she is able to retrieve our belongings, andI cannot." Kori said as she crossed one leg on the other. Richard sat on the arm rest beside kori, still confused.
"Let's just get this through, we all have abilities. And we all know it. I'm just going to help you get your stuff back." Raven said, still monotoned.
"Well, how do we do it then?" Gar asked. Raven stood, then crossed her legs, Indian style, in the air, levitating herself over the couch.
"Azerath… Metrion… Zynthos…" She chanted over and over. A portal opened over the center of the group. A laptop hovered down in a black aura and landed on Richard's lap, it looked brand new, like it was before the fire… Next was a little hand held chest. Kori gasped when she held it in her arms, she then started to 'shed tears'. More of their stuff flowed out, after a while, the portal closed, and raven collapsed.
