Kid Flashes POV;
Wally didn't know exactly what it was about her that was so intriguing to him. Maybe the way her agile body didn't walk, but pranced around like a feline. Or maybe the way her devious eyes glinted with annoyance when she caught him staring. Possibly it was her pink hair and cat like eyes. Whatever the reason, he couldn't cease the thoughts that raced through his head about her after the first night they encountered each other. It was a late, especially chilly, February night In Jump City. Wally was staying with Robin and his team, when a loud beeping emitted from a capacious screen that was hung on the wall in the living room.
Robin's small, but athletic frame came whizzing into the room, his black hair gelled into the spiky hair-do he constantly wore. He re-adjusted his black and white mask before typing furiously on the keyboard underneath the screen. A small red dot appeared, where Kid Flash guessed some trouble awaited. "Wally, do you mind looking after this one? I'm really busy." Robin asked, typing some more until he came across what he was looking for. "24th street, the back alley behind the bank." Robin told him hurriedly, before scurrying off to wherever he needed to be. "I guess…" Wally mumbled, though Robin had already disappeared from his sight.
With lightning speed, Kid Flash ran from the T Tower and to 24th street in less than 30 seconds. They don't call me the fastest boy alive for nothing. He thought as he ran. Kid Flash peered around the dark corner into the alley way sneakily, careful not to alarm whoever was lurking in the shadows. He could just barely make out a small figure tip-toeing around in the damp, narrow space between two buildings. In one hand, the shadow held a bag. Most likely money from the bank. Kid Flash sped up behind the person, a streak of red and yellow in the dark.
He silently stalked the un-known person, until they were underneath a street lamp. Though the light was barely light enough to see, it still created a halo of yellow, bright enough to identify it was a female. A small girl to be precise. The girl was probably about a year younger than Wally, but very petite. She stood at roughly 4'9, tiny compared to his height of 5'10. Upon closer examination, Kid Flash could make out the glint of pink hair, in high pig tails styled to resemble horns. Although he couldn't see the front of the girl, Wally vaguely remembered her as one of the H.I.V.E Five members. Correction: An ex-member.
During the battle with most of the Titans, and most of our re-occurring villains, the girl turned on her team mates and disappeared. No one had seen the girl since, nor did anyone know if she was still evil, or she had changed sides. Jinx was her name, bad luck was her game. But that night it was obvious she wasn't done with the villain thing.
He decided to make a move before she noticed him, and cleared his throat. Jinx turned on her heel in utter shock, and snarled at Kid Flash from behind the bush she pounced into. He sped over to her, grabbing the wrist in which she held the bag of cash lightly, careful not to hurt her. "Let go!" She growled, yanking her arm free and dashing away. She was pretty quick compared to most people, but no match for Kid Flash. He easily caught up to her, and cornered the pink haired girl. Wally pressed her up against the wall gently, his hand reaching down in a flash and snatching away the bag.
Jinx squirmed; trying to break free of the hold the larger boy had against her. His free hand was holding both of her wrists above her head against the bricks of the building we were behind. "I thought you were done with all this nonsense Jinx. What happened to, Miss Blow up Her H.I.V.E Five friends, eh?" Kid Flash joked, tossing the bag of cash to his side so she couldn't reach it. Now that both of his hands were free, Wally decided to be his regular flirtatious and slightly cocky self. His free hand softly stroked Jinx's face, earning a scowl and almost a bite mark in his palm. "Get. Off. Of. Me." She hissed, trying to kick him since her hands weren't in her control.
Wally took care of her legs by pressing himself against her more, his own legs trapping hers against the wall. "Damnit! Get off of me!" Jinx yelled, her eyes glowing dark pink, along with her hands. With a sharp yelp, Kid Flash jumped back, hands burning. Wally almost forgot about her powers. The sorcerous grinned wickedly, before snatching the bag of money off the ground and turning to escape. "Wait!" The boy called hoarsely, squeezing his burnt hands together in pain.
"You don't have to do this you know. You don't have to steal to get money. I know you're lonely, and you miss your friends. But you did the right thing, and I want you to continue doing that." Kid Flash said a tad quieter, not knowing what her response would be. That was probably the most sincere and meaningful thing he had said in a long time.
Jinx had a moment of hesitation before turning again, glaring at him incredulously. "What do you know? You're the fuckin' Kid Flash! I bet you've never had a moment in your life when you've done something wrong!" Wally sighed and shook his head. "That's not the point, Jinx. The point is, Robin's team even said that if you stopped what you have been doing, they might let you in the Teen Titans. You don't have to be alone." The last part came out as a whisper, and Wally could see the pain and loneliness in the girl's eyes.
The bag of money fell from her hand, her eyes brimming with tears. "Really?" She whispered, stepping a few feet closer to him. "They really said that?" Kid Flash nodded and smiled weakly. "Yep." Jinx returned the smile, but Wally could tell there was something wrong. But before he could identify what it was, he noticed her shaking a bit. "C'mon, let's go to the T- Tower and talk to Robin." Kid Flash suggested, scooping up a protesting Jinx in his arms. Before she could demand to be put down any more, Wally sped off towards the Titan's Tower.
Kid Flash set down Jinx once they got to the door, her scowling and sticking out her tongue. "Hey, if you keep scowling like that, you're pretty little face will get wrinkles." Wally said, winking and opening the front door. Jinx rolled her eyes and trailed behind him into the living room of the Tower. It was luckily empty, so Wally had enough time to explain what was going on before anyone saw the girl they once knew as an enemy.
Turning to make sure Jinx was still there, Wally noticed her looking down sadly. "Hey… Hey now, it's alright. What are you worried about?" Kid Flash asked her tenderly, stroking her face with her thumb again. Jinx slapped his hand away and sneered at him. "Don't touch me." She muttered while turning and wandering towards the hallway. "Where are you going?" Wally asked, starting to follow her retreating form. "To the washroom! God, you don't have to follow me everywhere." Jinx snapped, her eyes glaring as she continued on to the hallway.
A few moments later, Wally heard a loud scream from where Jinx had gone to, followed by another scream. Kid Flash ran towards the noise, and almost bumped into a surprised looking Beast Boy, and an annoyed Jinx. "W-what is she doing h-here!" Beast Boy stuttered with his eyes wide and green face flushed.
"Oh shut up grass stain! I'm here to talk to Robin." Jinx snarled, pushing past the green boy and down the hall again. Beast Boy still looked puzzled, so Wally filled him in on the night's events. "Dude! You totally didn't invite that freaky witch chick into our house!" Beast Boy squealed. Wally rolled his eyes. "You have to live with Raven don't you?"
