Hi! I haven't written a story for months now and this is my first attempt at a Teen Titans story. So, I hope that it isn't that awful. :)

Anyway, this is a KF/J simply because I love them. This story is set after Trouble in Tokyo. Um... I kinda added a bit of Young Justice here, and I know the shows aren't exactly related to each other but I needed to add a different team and I thought, 'Hey, why not?'

So, this isn't exactly a crossover because I guess there's only minimal YJ, but please tell me if you think I need to change it into the crossover section. I'd be happy to transfer it there :)

Disclaimer: I own nothing.

So I guess that's about it. I hope you enjoy reading it and tell me what you think! Thanks^^


Prologue

"KF, for the last time, who is this chick? And how do you and Robin both know her?"

Kid Flash did not respond, blue eyes glued to the girl helplessly sprawled on the bed before him - unconscious and unresponsive. His grip on her hand tightened, mindlessly stroking his thumb over her palm.

It'd been three years. Three years since he had last seen her.

Life was pulling them in separate directions. He'd fought for her in any way he could, hoping that his efforts would not be in vain, and that one day, maybe - just maybe - fate would let him have her. Then maybe they could be together.

He once thought that they could stand a chance. That even though the odds were against their favor, they would prove everyone wrong. That together, they would battle through whatever tempest was put in their way.

But that was three years ago.

And now, here they were, in the exact same position they'd been when he left her that fateful night in November.

He winced at the memory.

He hadn't stopped thinking about that ever since, mentally scolding himself for being such a coward. He could face countless robots, monstrous lizards and deformed aliens, but he wasn't even brave enough to say goodbye.

Stupid. Idiot.

Three years ago, he'd convinced himself that he was doing the right thing, and that his decision was for the best. But now, as her frail figure lay limp on white sheets stained with her blood, he regretted everything he'd done.

And even though life had kept them apart for so long, his heart stayed in the same place – with a beautiful, pink-haired girl who'd captured it from the moment they first met.

Slowly, he reached for her wrist, gently placing two fingers on top of her cold, pale skin, and searched for her pulse.

It was there. Faint but still.

He did not resist the small smile tugging at the corner of his lips. She'd always been a fighter. His heart leapt every time he felt a soft bump against his fingertips. He swore they grew stronger with every passing beat.

"Um, hello? Earth to Kid Flash? Remember us?" The annoyed voice of Artemis shook him out of his reverie.

He hesitated. "She's…an old friend. We go back."

Aqualad stepped forward, placing a comforting hand on the younger boy's shoulder. "She'll be fine, Kid. The damages on her skull were strong, but not substantial enough to put her in a coma and not hard enough to cause severe head trauma. She should awaken in a few moments, albeit with a serious headache."

"That's not what I'm afraid of."

Superboy crossed his arms, eyebrows scrunched in a troubled frown. "Why was she in that warehouse in the first place? And how did she end up with all those bruises and wounds? I don't know about you guys, but I seriously doubt she did that to herself."

The red-haired speedster shook his head. "No clue."

Artemis raised an eyebrow. "Well, that narrows it down."

Aqualad gave her a knowing look, silently reprimanding her for her words as Kid Flash glared at her. The blonde archer shrugged her shoulders, mumbling incoherent apologies under her breath.

"So what do we do know?" Superboy asked expectantly.

"We wait," the Atlantean replied, his voice low and apologetic. "That's all we can do."

Kid Flash sighed. Aqualad was right; they would have to wait until she had fully awakened. Perhaps then they would get some answers. He gulped; he wasn't sure he was completely prepared to face her. His head bowed down, he silently prayed for the best.

"Star, how many times do I have to -"

Wally felt a stir beside him. He froze; his eyes automatically found their way to her as she tossed around, raising her arms into the air sluggishly. His breathing stopped, watching as her eyes slowly opened.

Her pink eyes widened as she visibly took in the scene before her.

"You're not Starfire," she stated plainly. "Who are you? Where am I? How did you find me? Where are-" She cut herself off, stopping midsentence as though she'd realized something important.

"Crap." She muttered to herself. She said something else, but Wally didn't catch her words. She shifted, struggling to sit up. She winced suddenly, raising her hand to her temple spontaneously. Her eyes narrowed and her lips parted.

The words slipped out of his mouth before he could stop them. "Jinx-"

Slowly, she turned her head slightly to face him.

He could not read the emotions on her face; he searched for the words in his head, but his throat was dry and no voice escaped his lips.

For a moment that lasted an eternity, they just sat there staring at each other. Motionless.

He gazed at her wordlessly as she did the same; her eyes still shone brighter than the stars, glistening as they caught the faint rays of sunlight that streamed through a nearby window. Her features had visibly softened and her skin was paler than it had been before. Her lips were drained of their color, perhaps due to the astounding amount of blood she had lost earlier. Her hair was longer; pink locks framed her face, cascading in soft waves that fell of her shoulders.

He couldn't believe how beautiful she was.

Dried blood stained her face and her mouth was bruised. There was long a gash across the bridge of her nose, as well as several cuts on both her cheeks.

Her face hardened suddenly, twisting into a livid frown. She spat out the words as though they were poison.

"Great. I'm in hell."


So... what did you think?

Should I continue?

Please review! Thanks! :)
