Fading Darkness Chapter 1

Ever since Jinx's little run in with Kid Flash, she'd been wondering. Was she truly meant to be a villain? No. REAL villains were cruel and heartless like her old idol, Madam Rouge. Only Jinx had convinced herself long ago that she was a villain. She had been mocked and called a jinx since she had gotten her powers as a young child. She wasn't evil, just misunderstood. It took her until just a few days ago to finally understand. Powers don't control the person, the person controls the powers. She had a choice in everything she did. Kid Flash had convinced her of this. He was a true hero. Not only helping the defenseless, but helping people from them selves as well.

Jinx had decided to become a hero and leave her life of theft behind her in the dust. She just wasn't sure of how to quit the HIVE 5. She laughed as she thought of the name. It truly didn't make sense.

'With me gone they will be the HIVE 5." She said to herself. She then found herself thinking about Kid Flash yet again as she stared at the last rose he had given her. In the short time that they'd known each other, he had a huge impact on her look on life. She'd gone soft and she knew it. But had she really? Or has she been like this her whole life and ran away from it? She sighed.

'What does he see in me? What could possibly be there that I can't see?'

'Lots of things.' She w hipped around to come face to face with the one and only, Kid Flash. She nearly screamed. She put a hand on her chest.

'Are you trying to give ma a heart attack! And what are you doing here?'

'Just visiting a friend. And I'm not trying to give you a heart attack. Just…this.' He held out a black rose.

'Kid Flash….' Jinx was speechless. All she could do was take the rose from his hand.

'Thought you'd like it. It reminded me of you a bit. Dark, misunderstood, but in everyway beautiful.' She stood there, shocked. It was indeed a beautiful flower. She liked it more than the red ones he had given her before.

'Well I'll see ya later.' And with that the left in the same way he had come in. Vibrating through her wall. Still staring at the flower, only two words escaped through her lips.

'Thank you.'

Well what do you think? This is my first fanfic so please don't be too harsh. Please R&R! I hope it's not too short. But the next chapter will be a little longer. Let me know what you think. Thanks
