A/N: Than you to all who reviewed last chapter- you guys rock!

This chapter starts on a bitter note but ends with a cheer. Hopefully you'll like that.

There is a bigger shock coming ahead, one of you already knows what it is (not saying who and not saying what) but prepare yourselves...

You've been warned...

With that said,

Read!

Enjoy!

Review!

The torture of rape happened four more times to Jinx and by the end of their fourth week of imprisonment (which completed the month they'd been in here) Jinx felt weaker and weaker each time. She was tired, worn out from trying in vain to protect her family and herself, she couldn't sleep well at nights, she hardly ate or drank anything at all and was growing skinnier and paler each day.

Kid Flash watched all these changes in his wife and hated himself more than ever for being unable to protect her. He hated not being able to keep her from getting raped by Dikos but both he and Jinx were at least glad that neither Creak nor Dikos had touched any of their daughters.

"We HAVE to escape! I'm going crazy in here!" Jinx moaned, pounding at the green shield, making her hand bleed when she hit the shield too hard.

"I know, I know love, I'm thinking, I'm thinking..." said Kid Flash, taking off his shirt and wrapping Jinx's injured hand tightly in it.

"Why do you think they even have us here?" Jinx asked him "If they wanted us dead- they would've killed us right away- you saw how- how Creak m-murdered J-Jake. Didn't think about THAT twice, he didn't." she said, her voice trembling a bit when she talked about Jake.

"I know, I've been wondering about that too you know," Kid Flash said quietly "It seems to be that we're not the exact target Creak OR his father are after. Changeling and Raven were the ones to put Dikos behind bars, remember? I think, mainly, it's after THEM that they're after, hence why Creak hated Jake so much."

"But if it's the Logans they want," said Jinx "Why take US? Why make US prisoners?"

Kid Flash shrugged.

"As a bait I suppose," he said "They know you're best friends with Raven. They know that, throughout the years, Changeling and I have become practically brothers. They know our children and the Logan children are all very close. I guess they're hoping for another Jake-like episode."

"What do you mean?" Jinx asked him.

"I mean, you know, Jake came here and surrendered, thinking that would save us and his family. We knew he was wrong all along but HE didn't. I'm guessing they're hoping another Logan shows up- looking for Jake or for us, I don't know- and kill him or her too."

"I feel so bad." Jinx said "Like Jake's d-death and our friend's suffering is all our fault."

"It isn't, love." Kid Flash assured her "Jake would've surrendered. Whether we were here or we hadn't been captured, maybe that would've delayed his sacrificing himself a month or so but not prevented it from happening entirely. You heard what his last request to Creak was. Ultimately, that boy just wanted to save Ravenie, and would've sacrificed himself either way, just to keep Creak from going after her."

Jinx began crying in his shoulder. She couldn't believe the horror she had witnessed, seeing her best friend's son murdered, the boy Jinx loved almost as much as she loved her own. Her godson, no less. She couldn't help but feel dirty, knowing what Dikos had repeatedly done to her. And she couldn't help but feel useless, being unable to do much about their current situation. She couldn't believe the nightmare they were all living.

Jinx and Kid Flash were particularly worried about their grandson, Daniel.

Poor Daniel seemed to be starving, and growing weaker and paler each day. Lise tried to feed him as often as she could, but due to the fact that she was breastfeeding him, Jinx and Kid Flash told her to only feed him quietly at night, when neither Creak nor Dikos could see her and get any dangerous ideas about her.

Because he was not getting enough food, Daniel would sometimes scream on and on for hours on end. This would often irritate Creak, or Allison, or Dikos or even the three of them. Whenever they all became annoyed by the baby they'd tear him out of his mother's embrace and torture him with Creak's powers, so much until the poor baby eventually fainted.

This troubled Lise, Ben and her parents, for they all feared the worst regarding Daniel's life.

"He's my life, mom, I don't know what I'll do if I loose him!" Lise cried, late one night in her mother's shoulder. Daniel had recieved another torturous treatment from Creak that day and had been out cold the entire day.

"Don't worry honey, everything'll turn out right in the end, you'll see sweetie, you'll see. We must be strong while this lasts. We need to be together and endure this. We'll get help soon enough, though, I can feel it." Jinx said, rubbing her daughter's back soothingly. She knew Lise's distress for her son all too well. She had lived it almost for her entire life since she became a mother. Being only fifteen at the time, and with the Hive Five after her, as well as many others after Kid Flash, life for them hadn't been easy.

Yet Jinx knew of a greater pain than that which Lise was living right now. And Jinx hoped with all her being that Lise would never have to bear the kind of pain she, Jinx, had to live every day of her life. The pain of loosing a child. A pain which now her best friend Raven shared. A pain which must be doubled, once she found out that, not only was her youngest daughter dead, but her oldest son as well.

As the days turned to weeks and nothing happened, however, the Wests all began to loose hope about ever getting out of there. However, they were very very close to getting out. Only... they didn't know that.

Finally,after much suffering for our poor Wests, Heaven answered their prayers and they were given the perfect opportunity to escape...

It was Speranza who first came up with the idea.

"Guess what I just found out?" she said, five weeks after they'd been captured "Dikos and Creak are going out for dinner tonight, and the only one left behid to guard us will be Allison..."

A/N: Told you all it ended on a brighter note. Next chapter will probably be about the Logans and the rest of the titans- but mostly the Logans, you'll see why. A very sweet BBxRae moment coming up next. And in the next-next chapter, most likely, the Wests famous escape.

Keep reading!

Enjoy the story!
