Kori met up with everyone once they got in the theatre and took their usual seats ready for the run-through. She wouldn't admit it, but she was actually really excited for this run-through, she didn't know that she'd enjoy theatre so much. Then again, her powers derived from her feeling emotions so be able to play them all out for other people, she shouldn't be surprised.

"You know all your lines?" Wally asked as she sat down.

"Most of them," She admitted, "You?"

"Getting there," He smirked and Kori couldn't help but notice him glance at Dick, "Have you noticed anything off about him?"

"Apart from being really good at acting Beetleguese?" Kori joked, "No, why?"

"He's not his normal self," Wally explained, "Not since the fight with Raven."

Kori looked over at Dick then, really looked at him. She hadn't known him long, but Wally was right. Even just glancing like this, she could see malice in his smile, and he had been a lot more possessive of Raven. He hadn't let her leave his sight since the fight.

"Have you asked Babs?" Kori asked.

"Not yet," Wally said, "I don't want to push at something that isn't there."

Kori nodded to show that she'd heard and Wally turned back Artemis.

"Megan," The Martian turned to face Kori, "Can you come over here quick?" The Martian came over and sat down next to the Tamerenean, "What happened during the fight with Raven?"

"Not much," M'gann said, "She must have lost of control or something, she looked like a demon and just started attacking me without any forewarning. It just sort of happened. Then she knocked me out and when woke back Dick was there, looking a lot worse then he does now. Then he sent me to get help. You saw the aftermath."

"And he fully healed," Kori commented, "Don't you find that a little odd."

"Raven probably felt guilty and healed him," M'gann said, "What are you getting at?"

"He's been acting differently," Kori explained, "Everyones noticing it."

"He has been," M'gann said, "But I don't have an explanation. I can't get into his head, his walls are too strong. Always have been."

Kori just let out a sigh, of course, what had she expected? She thanked M'gann for telling her and sat and watched Dick some more. Something was not right, and she had a feeling if they didn't figure it out soon it was going to spell disaster.

She had enjoyed rehearsals tonight, smiling as she left, but what Wally had said nagged at her still. As she watched Dick she was certain something was off, the malice he held in himself wasn't just a performance. And he wasn't just possessive of Raven, his gaze when he looked at her was hungry. 

It sent chills through her, and not in a good way. And her smile died as she spied him again, and it wasn't good. He had Raven by the arm and was leading her away from everyone. He was a cop, a hero even, so what the hell was he doing? She was about to follow him when she noticed Wally had the same idea. She let him go before her and then followed him instead.

----------

All evening Dick had been off, he'd shrugged off any concern Wally had voiced to him, almost ignoring his best friend altogether in order to just watch Raven. He could tell she was uncomfortable too and when he brought it up to Dick, he had actually snapped at him that it was none of his business and taken himself and Raven to the other side of the theatre. He was just glad he wasn't the only who had noticed. But when he didn't go back to his car, this was the final push for Wally.

"Would you mind heading home without me?" He asked Artemis, "I want to follow Dick, he's not right and I think he's scaring Raven."

"Just call me if you need any help with anything," Artemis said.

Wally nodded and gave Artemis a smile before heading back up to the ground floor just in time to see him drag Raven off into a back alley. He didn't waste any time following him around the corner. He stayed back a good distance, watching as Dick led Raven through the back streets of Gotham, and he noticed her resisting him. He couldn't watch this anymore.

"Dick," He said and his best friend turned towards him.

Apart from it wasn't his best friend. It was something feral. He looked at Wally with wild eyes and a snarl on his lips, his grip only tightening on Raven causing her to yelp in pain. Wally didn't know what to do, so he just stood there. He didn't react as Dick prowled towards him, he was frozen with... With fear.

"Don't hurt him," Raven begged, and Wally could see she had been crying, "Please, Dick, stop this."

Dick didn't pay any heed to her as he reached out to grab Wally's throat. The ginger finally came back to his senses and he moved to dodge right, tripping over Dick's foot. He couldn't move as Dick trapped him there and grinned down at him and Wally could see nothing of his friend.

Something had gone wrong with Dick, and his face was the last thing he saw as he lost consciousness.

----------

Kori watched from the rooftops as Wally approached his friend and as he was taken down. And then Dick started dragging him off somewhere. She pulled her phone out of her pocket and dialled the first number she could think of.

"Kori, is Dick with you?" Babs answered straight away.

"Yes," Kori replied, "But not in a good way."

"What do you mean?" Babs asked, "Has he done something to Raven?"

"How did you know he'd do something like that?" Kori asked.

"He was muttering about it," Babs said, "It was like he was going crazy. He kept saying he had to get her to 'say the words'. And when I asked him about it, he turned on me. I asked him to calm down and he just hit me. Of course, I had a real go at him for that. He knocked me out, and when I came back to he and Raven were gone. I've been phoning him for hours and he won't pick up. Please tell me we can fix him."

"Well, on the plus side, I know where he is. On the downside, he has both Raven and Wally," Kori explained.

"Watch him," Babs said, "I'm going to call up the rest of the team. Whatever he's planning. We can't let him get away with it. And we have to fix him."

"We'll try our best," Kori promised and Babs hung up.

----------

Wally's head was pounding as he came back around. He blinked open his eyes, wherever he was it was dark. He tried to move and found himself tied, ankle and wrist, to the floor with old rope. He tried to remember how he got here, the last thing he could remember was seeing Dick and Raven. 

Dick. 

He was the one who attacked him. He looked around the dark room but he couldn't see anything.

"Raven?" He called into the darkness and heard a laugh behind him, the laugh of a madman.

"Raven is indisposed at the moment," He tried not to tense up as Dick came into view, "You see, you were just what I needed to use as motivation. She's preparing for Trigon's arrival, and she's adamant she won't say the words. But with you tied down like this, what choice is she left with. She doesn't want you to die, and to be honest I don't want to kill you. But, understand, this is more important than us. Sorry for any hard feelings," And he walked off again.

Wally couldn't help the fear that overtook him, because that wasn't Dick. And there was nothing more terrifying than being trapped in a room with a stranger.
