"This" means that they're speaking in Tamaran and its use for whispering; you'll know the difference, and this is when they're thinking/their POV. There's language. Not a lot but Ignore it if you want…

Hello :D I'm sorry for the very long wait. I blame school. I assure you that the next chapter won't take as long...I will try. Anyway, if you skipped the explanation right above this (since it's the same for every chapter), I added something new...so read the last part. Thank you for all the reviews! :D Now read. :)

Your Reason Why

Chapter 6 – Unknown

"Rae, move your head. I can't hear." said Garfield pushing Raven with his elbow.

"Oh and you think I can?" she said elbowing him back. Garfield and Raven were against the lab's door, pushing and shoving each other, trying to hear the conversation between Victor and Richard.

"Raven, move your butt!"

"You move your butt!"

"I can't hear!" complained Garfield with a shove. Raven shoved back.

"How can you? You won't shut up."

"You're the one who's talking."

"Don't make me send you to another dimension." She said with a glare.

"Can you still do that?"

"You can still morph. My powers aren't dead."

"Oh yeah…I forgot this door is sound proof."

"Now you tell me… Wait, weren't you listening?!" Raven glared.

"Wanna go eat?" he asked sheepishly. She sighed.

"Sure, why not…" said Raven, giving up.

Same old Garfield…

oOo

Komand'r saw her brother standing, hidden in the shadows, on top of a very well known site she knew. The giant T. Ryand'r was keeping out of site from Jump City's residents, his eyes searching for any signs of his small niece. Komand'r landed quietly behind him, he being aware of his sister's presence.

"About time."

"Anything yet?"

"No. I hope she's alright."

"She can take care of herself."

"Half-Tamaran…right."

"Do you think…she found him?" He didn't answer back. Komand'r stared out towards the quite city. She remembered the first time she came here... She looked away. Ryand'r walked toward the edge of the tower.

"I'll go look on foot, you take flight. Meet me here at sunrise." Ryand'r took off into the dark sky. Komand'r stepped forward, ready to leave and looked back. The roof entrance to Titans Tower. She walked towards the old rusty door, broke it open without any effort, and entered the abandoned tower.

oOo

Garfield and Raven were standing behind the kitchen counter preparing something to eat and occasionally throwing quick glances at Richard; who was now standing by the kitchen's entrance. Mariand'r had been seated in front of Victor's flat screen TV to watch Shrek. She was gawking at the characters with amazement. After all, they weren't many talking animals back on Tamaran.

"Raven?" whispered Garfield.

"What." she whispered back, taking a bite out of her sandwich.

"Ask Richard who the mother is."

"No. Why don't you ask him?"

"Because he'll ignore me."

"He'll tell us when he's rea–"

"Her mother is Starfire." interrupted Richard.

"What?" they both asked in union.

"Kori is her mother." he stated; his tone even.

"Dude…" said Gar in disbelieve.

"What– But how– Where's is she?" Raven stuttered. Richard turned around to face them. They all walked towards the kitchen table and sat down. Garfield grabbed a bag of chips that was lying around.

"The girl came by herself–"

"But where is Starfire?" interrupted Raven in an urgent tone.

"Rich, are you the father?" asked Garfield, as he stuffed his mouth with potato chips, watching the drama unfold.

"I don't know, at least I don't think I am….and from what she told me, I think Starfire is dead..." Garfield started chocking on his chips and Raven stood up from her chair.

"What!" Raven demanded. Mariand'r turned her head around to see what all the noise was about. Raven noticed. She sent an apologetic smile at Mari and quietly sat back down on her chair. Richard gave her a warning glance. "What do you mean from what she told you?" asked Raven after she collected herself, her voice cracked. Garfield held his grim expression on his face and kept quite.

"She hasn't seen her for a year…she told me about a war that took place in Tamaran. Kori was fighting in the battles. They were living under ground when the planet was under attack. Galfore, Ryand'r, and even Blackfire had been with her once the war ended." His fist tightened. "But Kori was not. She said the war was still going on and that her mom was still fighting but it seems unlikely since everybody moved back at the palace. The war must've ended and Kori must've died." He spoke the last part through gritted teeth. Garfield put his head down and Raven just stared towards Mari's direction in disbelieve.

"Did– Does she know?" asked Raven, still looking over Mari's way; tears forming in her eyes. Garfield was covering his face.

"No…she still thinks the war is still going but it's evident that it ended from what she said…" An angry expression formed on his face.

"How did she get here?" asked Garfield in a muffled voice, still hiding his face.

"I didn't bother to ask." he stated. Raven cleared her throat.

"Richard, what are you going to do if you're not the father? Is she going to stay here?" she asked; her body motionless.

"No. I'm going to try to contact Galfore or Blackfire to come and get her…" Both Raven and Garfield stood up once more.

"You can't do that!" yelled Garfield, standing up; his tears clearly visible.

"You can't send her away! She came looking for her father. Of course she's ignored at Tamaran; Galfore runs a fucking planet. Her mother is dead! And you just want to send her back!" screamed Raven, angry and with tears running down her face.

"Who do you think is going to take care of her? Blackfire?" added Garfield.

"What if I'm not her father? She hasn't seen her mother for a year; I think she can manage the rest of her life. She's not my responsibility. So don't put this on me!" yelled Richard, standing up as well.

"Listen to yourself! Kori is dead! I will not let the child of my best friend go back to a place where she's been lied to and ignored, especially with Blackfire around. Or did you forget what she did to Starfire when she first came here? Galfore clearly can't be with her 24/7 or else she wouldn't be here!"

"Is that supposed to be my fault? I guess she's not wanted anywhere!" That was it.

"Shut up!" Garfield turned into a vigorous, green bear and Richard was thrown against the wall like lightning. The table fell to the floor, the chips were crushed, and the chair was broken in half during the throw.

"What the hell did you do that for?!" Richard demanded from the ground, his whole body ached. He was not only pissed at Garfield but he was also angry with himself: he had let his guard down. Garfield was trying to control his breathing and anger. Raven put her hand in front of Garfield, just in case; her cold glare on Richard. Richard stood up.

"We just found out Kori is dead, dammit! And your acting like you don't even care what happened to her or what happens to her daughter. She was our friend!" he yelled. They heard a low sobbing and they all turned to see Mariand'r half hidden behind the kitchen's entrance, tears running down her face.

"Oh-no…" whispered Raven. "Mari, what you heard…" Mariand'r let out a loud wail.

"Mommy is not dead!" She screamed. Mari ran to Richard and hugged him, letting the tears out. Richard stiffened. A shocked Victor waited in the living room for an explanation. Raven motioned Garfield to leave the room. She followed behind him and whispered so only Richard would hear.

"I hope you're not her father…"

oOo

"Are you sure the toxic will wake her?" asked Galfore, hesitantly.

"It's a possibility." stated the doctor. "But you have to understand the side effects. Galfore, you have to understand that it might not work and the princess might die. And if Koriand'r does wake up, it's a probability she won't be the same person she was before…and I hope you realizes what you're giving up. Do you understand?"

"I understand… Proceed."

The doctor moved next to Kori's bed, where she lifelessly slept. He prepared the injection and filled the syringe with the reddish toxic liquid. He grabbed her lifeless hand and punctured her pale, cold skin. A machine started beeping in the room; her breathing became rapid and her heart beat raced. Galfore nervously sat on a nearby chair, and alongside the doctor, waited as the toxic ran through Kori's veins.

oOo

It was around two in the morning and Mariand'r lay asleep on Victor's couch with Raven by her side, stroking her hair where her injury laid. She had to keep waking her up every two hours, but not so suddenly, due to her head injury. Garfield was at Mari's feet quietly flipping through channels, not really interested.

Richard stood by the lab's door waiting for the DNA results. He was thinking over the events that had happened tonight. Victor opened his door interrupting Richard's thoughts. Raven and Garfield didn't move but they were listening.

"What do the results say?" Richard asked quietly.

"Richard, she is your daughter..."

What did you guys think? It was so dramatic xD It was sort of short but I wanted to update something. The name of the chapter actually is Unknown, it's not that I don't know…just clearing that up. xP

So if you're wondering about why they're talking bad about Blackfire it's because they don't know she's good now. And about the injection, it will be explained later throughout the story as well as to why Blackfire went inside Titans Tower. So I guess we know who won that bet huh? xD REVIEW!
