Bludhaven, 8 years later
Rachel Roth was a big time author around the US. Her book, 'Captain of the Robin, Sorceress of the Night Hawk'. It was the best time seller of the year! Heck, she even bought it for herself to read!
She was just walking down the street to her apartment. Suddenly the doors to her left crashed open with an explosion of dust. She shielded her face with her arms, as did the pedestrians around her. A couple gunshots were heard, and seen, through the smoke. Then they heard something hitting the floor, a guy yelling, then an impact and a snap. A crowd soon gathered around the door. Rachel didn't care, but she stayed there, in the back of the crowd, waiting and watching.
Then the smoke cleared. A man in a tight black suit, with a blue bird on the front with out stretched wings, long black hair and a mask was standing triumphantly over the robber's mangled body.
The man glanced up to look at the expressions on the peoples' faces, on person caught his attention. It was a woman in the back, with purple hair and eyes to match. That took him back to when he was a teen. His good and beloved friend, Rachel, or Raven, whichever it was.
Sirens brought him out of thought; he shook his head quickly.
Rachel turned her head and walked away. She needed to take a nap; it was such a stressful day. Some of the people that were there with her at the incident were mumbling with one another.
"I here that's the new hero from Jump city." one woman said to the other
"Yeah and I hear his name is Nightwing." said the other woman. Rachel jerked to a halt, shock written all over her face. "Isn't that odd? I mean, one of the characters in a book I read was named 'Nightwing'."
"I bet he copied it." The first woman said.
Rachel still had a hard time processing that. 'It couldn't be... could it?' she thought. "Phf! Nah!" she blew that idea off. Then she continued her journey to her apartment.
That night…
Rachel was in her apartment, the top floor, and it was one of the biggest in the building. She had just taken a shower and was in her white, cotton bathrobe. She had settled her self down on her black, synthetic couch. She was engrossed in her book she had written.
'One more page then to bed.' She thought. Once she turned the page she placed her marker, walked over to her nightstand and placed it in the drawer. She sighed then headed for her balcony that over looked the city.
Nightwing was crouched over on top of a building, over looking the city. But he wasn't looking for trouble, he was thinking about that woman he saw earlier that day.
'She looked so familiar.' He thought, 'Why can't I get her out of my head?' Nightwing was beating him self up for this. Then he heard doors open. His head snapped around to look behind him, no one. He looked down from where he was sitting to the concrete balcony, just below. A woman in a white bathrobe and purple hair came out of the building. 'That's her!' Nightwing got low to the roof top as he could get. He peered over the edge at her. She crossed her arms and leaned on to the edge of the balcony. He watched with great suspicion.
Rachel let out a soft sigh. She looked down at the street. A light breeze tossed a little bit of her hair. She looked to her left. A white plant pot with very faintly tinted flowers, that looked almost white. She reached over and plucked one of the flowers. She cradled it in her two hands as she looked at it.
She sighed again, "Robin... Where have you gone?" she asked the flower. The flower only answered with a little movement of the pedals as a breeze picked up again.
Nightwing over heard her conversation with the lonely little plant. He was shocked when he heard the name, "Robin".
Rachel looked at the flower as it danced around in her hands. She let her hands go and watched as it floated away with the breeze, twirling and dancing around so care free. She watched until it was out of sight. She then turned around, leaned backwards on her elbows and looked up at the sky.
Nightwing shrunk back so she couldn't see him. "Rae." He whispered.
Something moved on the roof top which caught her eye. She glanced at the roof top edge. "Must have been a bird." she mumbled. But she didn't know how right she was, well, partly. Rachel stood up from her leaning position and walked into her apartment, closing the doors behind her. She took off her robe and crawled into bed. She pulled out her book and began to read:
Her room was dimly lit by red candles. Queen Emeraldas, was what she was known as around the universe, but he real name was Raven.
She lay in her red bed, under her sheets, with drapery hanging on the poles above her bed. Rose pedals were scattered everywhere, on the floor, on the bed, and even on the night stand next to here bed. It was like heaven. Something shifted beside her. Her eyes fluttered open.
Captain Nightwing was there next to her. Staring at her. Her took his hand and brushed it over her face to get rid of the strands of lavender hair that had fallen in to her face. They laid there staring at each other, remembering what had happened a couple hours ago. They both smiled at each other. Nightwing cupped her chin and he leaned forward. Their lips touched, full of passion and lust, like they were a couple hours before.
Raven's hands tangled them selves in Nightwing's long, silky, onyx hair. Pulling him closer to her. She made a little moan as he wrapped his arms around her waist pulling her closer. As their hips connected-
Rachel closed the book. She put the book away and pulled the sheets over her nude body before settling down to go to sleep. Just then, the balcony doors flew open. Rachel's eyes did too. She glanced over her shoulder at the doors. Didn't she close them? The curtains fluttered around them. A figure was perched on the outside of the door. A gargoyle? Was it there before and she didn't notice it? No it couldn't be. She looked at her night stand, then back at the figure. She quietly reached for the drawer and opened it. She grabbed the hand gun she had been hiding just in case she needed it. And bot, did she need it. Once she got it out a black thing flew at her and knocked the gun out of her and in to the wall where it was securely fastened. She gasped and turned to look at the door. The figure was now inside and standing at full height.
"It's been a long time Rae." The figure said. The voice sounded some how familiar, but at the same time it didn't. Rachel's eyes went wide.
"It can't be." She whispered. She slid to the side of her bed and stood up, and wrapped the sheet around her body. "Could it?" The man took a couple steps towards her. She moved forward cautiously, once he stopped moving. Soon she was standing right in front of him. Staring up into his face. "Robin?" She asked.
He shook his head no, "I'm not Robin any more. I'm Nightwing." Rachel took her right hand, which wasn't holding the sheets up, and placed it gently on his cheek.
"It really is you." Rachel said with tears I her eyes. Nightwing placed his hand on top of hers.
"I missed you so much." Nightwing stated.
"And I missed you, too." Rachel said. Nightwing took her hand off his face and held it as he stepped a little closer so they were almost touching.
"I still love you Raven." Nightwing informed, "and I always will."
"Richard." She mumbled as their face were drawn to each other. "You've grown so much." she said lightly brushing her lips across his as she spoke.
"And so have you." He said and with that he seized her lips with his, in a passionate kiss. Over the years they've been apart, passion and love have been building up inside of them, yearning for one another. And now, it was all poring out into this one night together. Rachel, or Raven, slowly wrapped her arms around his neck, while her sheet had a mind of its own. It slowly started to fall to the ground, soon it was at her feet. Nightwing didn't care, he wrapped his arms around her waist.
'This is just like in the book.' Rachel thought. She tangled her hands in his hair. This night will change their lives forever. And they will protect the city together, and stay with each other for the rest of their lives.
End!
