Hey guys! I just got braces the other day, so during my sad attempt at getting used to having metal in my mouth, I forgot to post! Sorry about the delay!
Also, thanks for all the reviews! I don't own the Teen Titans... Darn...
Just Another Day Chapter Four
Kori walked down the street towards her home, humming something to the tune of a song she forgot the name of. Though it was nameless, it had significance. Kori loved this song. It was happy and bright, just like her mood. Nothing could bring her down. Or so she thought.
Kori snatched a pair of bright pink keys from her pocket. She was wearing a pair of denim capris with a pink, short-sleeved shirt and pink shoes. The humming continued as the key rattled in the lock. The large door opened without a sound. Kori smiled at her home. She loved the safe feeling she got, just from being within its walls. She took in a deep breath and made her way towards the kitchen.
"Sister? Are you home?" she called out. Kori and her sister Kassidy had an odd relationship. If you could even call it a relationship. When the girls were little, they shared a healthy sisterhood. Playing, giggling, and just being little kids were their favorite past times. Kori figured that Kassidy would always be there for her. Then came high school. Kassidy began to change once she entered Jump City High. She wore make up each day, worried about looks, and her grades slipped. Kori remembered her mother saying something about Kassidy being in the wrong crowd.
When Kassidy's friends came home with her one day, Kori found out what the 'wrong crowd' meant. The group wore chains and band shirts with strangely colored hair. One, a male, had a backpack filled with spray paint cans. Another, a girl, had several detention slips overflowing her bag. Every member of the group had piercings and tattoos. Everyone except Kassidy.
Kassidy was the newest addition to the group. She still is, though she is now an 'official' member. Kassidy came down stairs at her sister's voice. "Hello little sister. Why are you here? I have friends over! I'm getting a piercing!" she said. Kassidy was dressed in blue jeans with many black belts around the waist, a black tank top with a pink glitter skull on it, and a choker. Her long nails were painted black and a huge amount of mascara was applied to her eyelashes.
"Kassidy! Don't do this!"
"I told you, I'm not Kassidy anymore! It's Blackfire!" she screeched.
Kori's eyes filled with anger. "Sister, you are a disgrace to our family! Why did you change? What happened to the Kassidy I knew?" Kori yelled back. Kassidy snarled and looked away, laughing nervously.
"Little Kori's scared. Perfect, little Kori, always loved and gets whatever she wants! It was bad enough that Mom and Dad loved you more! Now you're trying to get me to leave my friends!"
"Kassidy, I never said that!" Kori said, her expression turning into one of fear. What had she said?
Kassidy reached into her back pocket and pulled out a small gun. "You're such a goody-goody Kori! I hate you! Everything was fine until you came along!" The gun was pointed straight at Kori. The redhead gasped. What should I do? Kori ran.
Where do I go? Her feet flew across the street, her mind barely functioning. Rachel is at the library, the boys' are at sports practice. So is Bee… Kori's hair waved behind her. The beating of her heart filled her ears. Fear consumed her. Dick! Dick is home! Basketball was cancelled today! She changed direction and headed towards the huge mansion of Bruce Wayne.
