Chapter 5: Beautiful Slut

Kori ran into the school going to meet her friends, she had a huge smile on her face, ready to greet them. But when she got there, her friends, Garfield and Rachel, weren't there. Her smile disappeared, they were never absent on the same day and if they were sick they would have called her. So why didn't they?

Kori clutched her books close to her chest as she sat down on the bench; a couple of people walked past her, laughing and talking about her. She ignored them despite the fact that she knew they were true, maybe she was a longer, or an idiot. She shook those thoughts from her head and sighed tears wanting to fall from her eyes.

Suddenly, she heard sirens from the street near the school; she shot her head up from the ground and looked to them. They seemed to be looking for something, the way they sped past like that. Without thinking, Kori ran after them, dropping her books as she ran.

----------

Richard arrived at school, on time, as usual. He looked for his friends but two seemed to be missing, Victor and Xavier. They weren't there today, maybe they were sick? No, they would've told Richard if they were and they were doing fine yesterday, so, what happened? Richard walked closer to his friends and looked over to his right, wanted to bug Kori, but when he looked over there, Kori wasn't with her friends smiling and laughing but, sitting on the bench, sad. He could over hear snickers from the crowd about her, and he wanted to strangle them, he was the only one allowed to make fun of Kori!

Suddenly, sirens went off in the distance; Kori's head shot up. She looked at them for a second until she finally stood up and as she started running, she dropped her books and ran faster. Without a second thought, Richard followed after her, running his fastest trying to keep up. Why he was running? He'll never know, but his feet were moving on their own, following her, for some reason, why?

Oh, but he knew why…

----------

She ran. Why she was running she wouldn't ever find out, she was running somewhere. When she finally stopped running she ended up on Rachel's porch. Kori knocked on the door and Arella, Rachel's mother, answered it.

"Oh, hello, Kori! May I help you?"

----------

Richard watched through the bushes as Kori knocked on the door, whose house was this?" Gar's? Rachel's? Well, when Arella answered the door, he knew it was Rachel.

-----------

"Hello, Mrs. Roth!" Kori put on a fake smile. "I was wondering if Rachel was home?" Kori opened her eyes and looked at Arella, her smile had faded and she looked at Kori as if she wanted to cry. Kori stopped smiling.

"Didn't you hear?" Arella said. "Rachel was kidnapped last night.

Kori didn't need details, she ran off without another word.

----------

Richard ran off behind her, after hearing that, he felt kind or, sorry for her, Rachel was one of her only friends and she got… kidnapped. Wait, she's stopped at an animal looking house.

----------

Kori knocked on the door of Garfield's house waiting for an answer. After about a couple of seconds of waiting the door finally opened and Garfield's mother opened the door.

"Oh, hello, Korina! What can I do for you?"

"Mrs. Logan is, is Garfield there?"

"Sweetie, you mean you didn't hear?"

----------

What is this crazy lady saying? Richard yelled in his mind as he listened closer.

-----------

"Didn't hear what?' Kori asked.

"Garfield was kidnapped about a day ago, he's presumed dead."

Kori's eyes widened as she shook her head, walking backwards down the steps slowly. "No…" Kori turned around and ran the rest of the way down the block to nowhere unparticular.

----------

Richard saw Kori take off again, so he followed.

----------

She ran. She just ran. To nowhere, somewhere, anywhere! Just some place she could hide from the cruel world that has been taking away the people she had held most dear to her. Home wouldn't be good, but the hill, her hill, sounded nice. She ran to the hill.

Once she got there, she ran to the edge and collapsed on her knees. She looked out to the horizon and tears welled up in her eyes, the once she had been holding for so long, since the accident, she swore she would never cry again, because she wouldn't let anyone else she cared fro most be take away. But she did, she swore, swore on her mother's grave, no one she held dear would disappear ever again, but she let it happen, and she didn't care.

She wanted to sing, sing the song her mother would always sing her, in Japanese.

So she sang.

"Four scene of love and laughter.

I'll be alright being alone.

Four scene of love and laughter.

I'll be alright being alone…

Four scene of love and laughter.

I will be okay.

----------

Richard watched her from far away listening to her beautiful singing voice. "Korina…" he breathed recalling the name Garfield's mother used for her.

----------

With her final tears, Kori walked home.

----------

Dick sat in the bushes as she left watching her every step. 'Korina…" Richard stood up and looked where Kori had just been. "You slut, you amazing, beautiful slut." Richard was falling. Hard. And the funny part was… he didn't even realize it.

End Chapter 5

Ok… when she said… "She didn't care." Well she did care… just she wasn't so… smart with it as before. You know…

NO FLAMES!
