"Now you know what it's like to blow it." Gar said jokingly. Richard just glared at him slumping back into his chair in his rather large bedroom. It was pretty plain, the walls just a clean white color. Victor always called it the bleached room. Richard went back to staring at the cracks in his door.
"Richard. You shouldn't mope." Gar said. "Go out there and face the day!" Gar stood up on Richard's bed trying to add dramatic effect but he fell on his face. Richard burst out laughing. "Now that cheered me up." Richard smiled but he quickly stopped and his face fell. "I just don't know what to do." Richard sighed.
"Can't help you there." Gar said. "Come on we are going to be late to school." Richard said pulling Gar behind him. "Fine! Thanks for the ride." Gar said. "Whatever." Richard shrugged.
TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
Richard slammed his door when he got out of his car. He looked around seeing a face that couldn't make this bad day any better. "RICHARD!" Kitten called running over her arms open to hug him. He ducked under her arms and walked away. "I take that he doesn't want to talk right now." Kitten sighed. "Kitten he never wants to talk to you." Gar said strolling past her chuckling at the look of fury on her face.
Kori stood next to Rachel playing with the zipper on her backpack while Rachel told her about this great book she was reading. Kori nodded once in a while but she wasn't listening. She kept on thinking about Richard. Thoughts raced through her mind. Where I come from no ones says things they don't mean! He said it was an accident! A small sensible voice told her, wow your confused. Kori chuckled. "Kori you just chuckled when I was telling you about the part where the main characters gets murdered by his own daughter." Rachel smirked. Kori blinked. "Oh. Sorry I wasn't listening." She looked at the ground. Kori saw Richard running away from Kitten and he saw her looking at her. She quickly turned around a bit so he couldn't see her face but she could see him. She didn't know what he was feeling his sunglasses masking any expression.
TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
Kori sat staring out the window of her English class with Mrs.Yue. She didn't get why humans weren't born with all this knowledge in their heads as Archangels were. She felt something hit her head. "It was a crumpled piece of paper that just said turn around. She looked behind her seeing Richard waving. Kori groaned and turned back. Another paper hit her head. This time it said that Richard wanted to talk to her. Kori still ignored him fighting the urge to yell at him. Once again a piece of paper hit her head. Kori slammed her head against her desk. The note said Richard would keep throwing things at her if she didn't talk to him. So childish! She whipped around. "Fine." She mouthed. Richard sat back smugly in his seat.
Rachel watched Kori and Richard. Richard had been staring at the back of her head for hours a faraway look in his eyes apparently thinking about something Rachel wouldn't want to hear. Kori was jotting something down probably a note or reminder. Rachel yawned. She leaped out of her seat when the bell rang knowing Richard wanted to talk to Kori.
Kori stood by the door of the classroom waving to some girls. Richard hurried to talk to her jamming his nee on a desk in his hurry. Richard caught himself before he could swear. "Ow." He just said. Kori hid her grin behind her English book. "So what did you want?" She asked.
"Ummm." Richard said searching for the right words. "It can sound corny." Kori smiled. "I'm sorry." He tried. Kori looked at the ground. "Come on! Let just go eat!" She said dragging Richard behind her. Richard slowly grinned.
TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
Kori walked towards home thinking quietly, something she didn't do that much. "What's wrong?" Rachel asked. "I have been thinking about mortals, I mean humans. I wonder, well one of my new friends Terra was watching a soap opera and they talked a lot about love. What is this love they talk about?" She asked. "It is a human name for an emotion well call attachment. " Rachel explained. "Why do we have different words?" Kori asked. "You will have to ask Elder Oak this I have no clue." Rachel said. That was weird Rachel was very smart. Like advanced grade smart but she wanted to stay with Kori. It gave her more time to doodle and do other stuff. "I shall do this!" Kori said running towards home.
Kori sat in her room willing with her mind for Oak to come. Oak appeared before her. "Yes young ward?" He asked. Kori bowed. "Thank you for coming elder I have a question I think you can answer." She said politely. "Yes." Oak nodded. "Why is that humans, or mortals and Archangels have different words for the same things?" She asked. Oak nodded thinking. "When our world was younger Archangels and mortals, humans interfaced but when a young Archangel found out the bodies of dead mortals could be manipulated using dark magic he was corrupted. Ever since Corian (remember back to the first chapter) walked this earth mortals and Archangels have been separate." Oak explained. "I understand." Kori nodded.
"Kori!" Richard called. "KORI! You left you bag at school." Where was she? Her door was open ajar so Richard opened it to see Kori sitting there talking to a very old looking guy with, wings! "What theā¦" He stuttered. Kori saw him and screamed. "RICHARD! AHHHH!" She panicked and ran to the kitchen Richard right behind her. She grabbed a pan and hit him over the head with it. Richard fell to the ground, unconscious. Kori was breathing heavily. She dropped the pan. "Oak?" She called but he had left as soon as Richard had seen him. Kori opened her phone and dialed Rachel's number. "Can you come to the house? Your better at making up stories. I'll tell you when I get her. Bye." She said.
"What's wrong?" Rachel asked gasping when she saw Richard slumped on the floor. "What did you do to him?" She asked. "He saw me talking to Oak so I panicked and hit him with a pan." She gulped. "Fine. I'll think of a story when he wakes up." Rachel grumbled. Richard groaned. "Where am I?" He asked. "You at Kori and Rachel's house. I was about to make some food when you came into the apartment. I thought you were an intruder. Sorry." Rachel apologized. "It's fine." Richard groaned. "I'm going home." He mumbled. "Do you need some help?" Kori asked, she was worried about Richard. "No Alfred, our butler can drive." He smiled and walked away. "You rock!" Kori cried. "I know." Rachel smiled.
