"Raining... go figure" the pink-haired girl sighed as she looked up toward the sky, which was as gray as her smooth skin.
Her destination was on the other side of town, and since the sudden downpour was already soaking her thin polyester jacket, chilling her curved (yet thin, as her food budget had been almost non-existent) body frame, it was going to be one looong walk. Her lonesomeness made the trek even more grueling, with views of couples and friends smiling and laughing in every window, the warmth teasing her with thoughts of what could have been.
Could have been.
As if she ever had a choice.
Being named Jinx, given cruel powers, so many different, easily identifiable traits that made her stand out, that made her not belong. After being bounced from place to place, a young girl whose tears ran like the raindrops on the window panes, she finally landed in the H.I.V.E. Academy, and although there was no family or loving home, there were others like her, young misfits whose freakish abilities brought them together, giving them purpose, and more importantly, a place to belong.
Sure, the guys were bumbling idiots, ransacking the kitchen, destroying the bathroom, screwing up the simplest of plans, but they were her guys, they were there when her first crush turned out to be Cyborg posing as a student, and pulling off petty crimes to get by, with all of the inside jokes and mocking the egotistical older criminals who ranted about their glory days. Their stupidity still brought a smile to her face as she though about her past.
Then HE came. Suave and quick, he dashed into her life. Literally. All she saw was a flash of yellow and red as he spoiled HER plans, made HER look like a moron, not only in front of her fellow team members, but in front of other villains as well.
But he made her believe that she could change, he said so much yet promised so little, and somehow, she actually believed him with all of her being, and left all that she knew for...
What? Now, months later, here she was, cold, wet, hungry, and alone, stuck working at a seedy joint, getting paid under the table (since she was wanted by authorities, and had no birth certificate or any other identification needed to work), living in the decrepit apartments in the poorest part of town.
Where is my hero now? She wonderedas she managed to step over a rather large puddle. Kid Flash stole her heart and destroyed all that she had, yet SHE was the one that was the bad guy. Go figure.
And yet he was always on her mind. She fell asleep wondering what she did wrong, her mind was never unoccupied, her every waking moment was devoted to him. She tried to tell herself to move on, that the flirtatious redhead whom she had fallen for was a womanizer, but she just couldn' here she was, making her way home, just scraping by on dead dreams.
Something suddenly caught her eye, and she stopped and watched as a worker at the bank was locking up across the street. The airhead teller was too busy chatting on her i-phone to realize that she had failed to completely close the door to the bank, whose security system, Jinx was well aware of, was not set until the door closed and locked. As the young blonde sped away in her little pink bug, it seemed too simple-an open, unlocked, unsecured bank where the drawers were easily accessible, and with only a swipe of her purple hexing aura, it all could be hers...
Jinx couldn't believe herself. "You can take the girl out of crime, but you cant take the crime out of the girl" she chuckled cynically. And suddenly, she realized something; HE might show up. Of course! How could she be so stupid? Kid Flash had only come while the Hive Five was breaking laws, and ever since she's been on the "straight and narrow path", he's avoided her like the plague.
If it's a bad girl that you want, then it's a bad girl that you'll get, she thought as her fists clenched, and with a determined,yet desperate look, she began to cross the street.
