Chapter 3

Why It happened

After Raven's look into Rorschach's past, Rorschac goes out on the town to look for away to unleash his angry.

"Rorschach's Journal, April 7th, 2010: Goth girl from Titans looked into my mind. Saw the truth about Rorschach. Not sure if she will tell. Shouldn't have trusted them. But somehow I felt save with that girl. Trailed in darker part of city. Smell of fornication and heroin. Looking for evil that hides in the shadows. Keeping it's ugly face hidden from day light, until time is right for it to strike it's target. I shall sniff it out." .']['.

Rorschach walks the streets until a voice gets his attention.

"Hey, Ink Face." the voice cries out.

Rorschach turns his head, he see who was calling to him. A thug, in a leather jacket, spiked hair, hands in leather glove, and holding a bat.

"Where do you think you're going?" the thug questions.

Rorschach doesn't answer.

"You're one of those new heros, aren't you?" the thug states, "Well, I think I should give you a welcome present." he says patting the bat in his other hand.

Rorschach turns around, he cracks his knuckles, then his neck. "Looking forward to it." he replies.

The thug runs at Rorschach and swings the bat at his head, Rorschach ducks and punches him in the side. The wind was knocked out of the thug, but he manages keep fighting him. He swings the bat again and Rorschach moves again. Rorschach grabs his arm and twists it, the thug throws a punch at him, but Rorschach catches his fist and twists it too.

"AAAHHH, please let go!" the thug begs looking into his ever changing mask.

"No." Rorschach replies, then headbutts the thug. The thug fall to the ground, Rorschach gets on top of him and starts ramming his fist into the thug's face over and over again.

Rorschach's Thoughts: "I am over a thug. Ramming my fists in his face. Blood is splattering all over the ground. With each punch, his face is more bloody. But I after twenty three punches, I see that girl's face. Tears running down her cheeks. I stop punching the thug. I could snap his neck right now. But I didn't. I checked his pulse. Still alive. I look at my hands. They are caked with blood. I see a puddle near me. I wash my hand in it. I turn back and see the man. I decided he shouldn't die yet."

Rorschach walks over to the thug and picks him up. He then walks for an hour to a clinic. He lays the man down in front of the building and leaves. All that was on his mind was Raven. "Why did she do it?" he asked himself, "What could she want from?" Rorschach then arrives back at Titan Tower, enters the tower. He walks down the hall to return back to his room. Until he nears Raven's room, "I need to know why." he says to himself. He opens her door and enters the. He looks around the room, there wasn't alot in Raven's room. Just books on a shelf, and a bed, were Raven was asleep. Rorschach walks over to her bed, he looks at her face, she looked so peaceful. "Hurm." Rorschach growls.

The growl woke Raven up, she stares at him, "R-Roschach?" she studders in fear.

Rorschach leans over her bed, his head near her's, "Why did you do it?" he questions.

"What?" Raven asks still affraid.

"Why did you look into my mind?" he questions again

Raven looks down with tears forming in her eyes, "I was worried about you," she replies, "The others said you weren't always like this."

"Hrrrrrr." Rorschach growls in anger, "If they had seen what I've seen, they would think the same." Rorschach replies.

Raven gets up from her bed, "I've never seen anyone suffer as a child like you." she says.

"My mother was whore," Rorschach says turning his back on her.

Raven comes up from behind him and put her hand on his sholder. "Your mother can't hurt you anymore." she tells him.

"Not just mother. Rejected by everyone." Rorschach informs. "Call me freak."

Raven looks at his mask, she watches as the shapes change, "I won't reject you." Raven says softly.

The room is silent for a moment, then Rorschach turns and leaves the room.

Raven returns to her bed wondering what just happened.

The next day the group is sit down for breakfast.

"Hey Laurie, how about you help me with my training?" Gar asks.

Laurie grins, "I don't know, maybe you should ask my boyfriend, Jon." she answer.

Gar freazes then faints.

"So, what should we do today new friend?" Starfire asks Laurie.

"Sorry Starfire, we have to search for Big Figure." Dan informs her.

"How about we join you?" suggests Dick, "We can split up into groups and search the city."

"Sounds like a good idea." Dan replies.

We cut to Rorschach walking down the hall when he stops at the bathroom. He opened the door and walked in, "AAAAAAAAHHHHH" a scream came from inside the bathroom. It turns out he walked in just as Raven had stepped out of the shower. "Sorry, didn't know someone was in here." Rorschach explains leaving the room.

Later, Robin starts to pair groups.

"Me and Nite Owl"

"Starfire and Silk Spectre"

"Comedian and Cyborg"

"Ozymandia and Beast Boy"

"Rorschach and Raven"

Raven looks at Rorschach confused. "What about Dr. Manhattan?" Raven asks.

"He's going back to New York to watch over the city." Nite Owl replies.

Then they all head out to search the city.
