Roshin Yuukai
To Meltdown:
00:13:18

"What does 'Roshin Yuukai' mean!?" I yowled. We didn't have much time left! There wasn't enough time to just stand around and gap. I could barely hear her, her breath was so quiet.

"Nuclear fusion."

MELTDOWN

Sayonara,

Terra & Jinx

-An irreversible error had occurred-

But it was still a dangerous topic. For Beast Boy, too. After awhile, we named the events 'Roshin Yuukai -MELTDOWN-' or Meltdown for short. It caused the Titans to break up. And for that, Meltdown is... famous.

KK: Don't own anything, except for *blank*. I realized last chapter I forgot to reply to some reviewers~!

Guest (1)—Who doesn't XD? (Actually a lot of people, probably...)

Guest (2)—OMG, you gave me an awesome idea *spaz attack*

Louisa—Thanks~! I'm glad you actually like it~!


Only at the last second,
Could I notice the consequences.

I demand your presence,
because I need a reason to live.

We all try to dream and hope,
Even when we shout and cry.
–MEIKO, Noise

They hooked her up to some sort of machine. It was to drain her power, I think. They were using her powers to create something. Something that would cause a disaster. I didn't want to think of what might happen. Then they dragged me out and tied me up. They had a camera. Why did they need a camera? To show something? Something bad? I still didn't want to know.

They turned the camera on. The guy who seemed like he was leading started to talk. That Black Beetle guy stood next to Lucky, obviously guarding her.

"I believe some of you heroes might recognize this girl." He starts, glancing back to Jinx. I need to double take. It was then I realized Jinx only had on a torn up shirt. Her hair was still curly, like last time I saw it. And I recognized the red ribbon tied around her neck. It was the same ribbon Kid Flash had given her. I smiled when I saw that on her head were her red goggles. Everyone on Titans Tokyo had gotten a pair not long after we formed the team. I paused, wondering if Kid Flash still has his goggles. I was wearing mine. They were black and light blue.

"She is a gifted girl. The first of her kind in a thousand years." I slightly nod, already knowing this. "Justice League, give yourselves up. With her powers, we can generate the worst weapon, able to destroy three planets at once." My eyes widen. "No! Don't do it!" I yowl, "Kokoro-chan can get us out!"

Thank Trigon she was still asleep, or else I'd be getting hit with that book she always carries around.

Black Beetle glares at me, I glare back. They press a button that shocks Jinx and makes her scream. The power goes through a cord and into a gun-like thing. "I demonstrate." The leader-person shoots a blast of energy at... me. It hits me strait on. I fall backwards and blood wells from my stomach where I was hit. I smirk suddenly, "When J-Jinx wakes up, yo-u-re all gone-ers." I manage and cough up blood before passing out.


We'd been talking about Slade when Bruce got a call from Alfred telling him to watch the news. Bruce immediately turned it on. All the ex-Titans gasped when we saw Jinx being used by The Reach and Ravager being shot.

"...Slade's gonna be pissed when he finds out Rosie was shot. Even if they're on opposite sides." Kid Flash finally said, breaking the silence. I stare at him. I was so sure he would have snapped when seeing Jinx. But then I saw it. He was trying to hold back. Any moment it could happen.

Beast Boy jumped up. "If Jinx is still alive after Roshin Yuukai -MELTDOWN-, then so is Terra!" He exclaimed happily. Cyborg started thinking. "How could they have survived, though?"

"Roshin Yuukai? Meltdown? What are you all talking about?" Green Arrow asks. Us ex-Titans fall silent. Beast Boy and Kid Flash both glare at him, but no one seems to notice. I finally open my mouth and speak, "A series of events that shouldn't have happened." I say while shaking my head.

Jinx on screen's eyes flutter open. She opens her mouth to probably talk, but nothing comes out. She quickly moves her hand to her neck and then sighs. She moves her mouth and I try to read what she's wants to say. I determine she says, 'It's still there.' And then sighs. I notice that she has her goggles on top of her head.

We ex-Titans all suddenly look at her hair. Curly. Not strait, like it used to be, before she joined the Titans. I slightly smile. She was still fighting crime. At the same time we all say, "Kokoro?" except Wally adds 'chan' to the end. She sneezes on screen, muttering a, 'someone's talking about me' under her breath. I snicker at this.

"Same old Kokoro," I sigh. "Let's hope she hasn't killed anyone in the time she was gone," Cyborg says. The ex-titans all laughed at this, while everyone else was confused. Kid Flash rubbed the back of his neck, "Do you think she ever got around to burying that one reporter...?" I burst out laughing at this.

"I remember that! We had to cover for Red-X, and she pretended that I was her brother and that I was drunk. Then somehow that one reporter got mixed into the mess and..." Everyone was staring. I wasn't about to admit Wally, Roy, Jinx, Rose, Jason and I killed a reporter. It was an accident, really! None of us knew he was...

The leader walks up to Jinx. "How many crimes have you committed?" He asks. Wonder Girl giggles, "That's a pretty dumb question. Jinx could probably fill three books of crimes." All the non-titans stare at her in shock.

Jinx, being quite playful, replies, "I don't really know. But once some friends of mine and I killed a reporter. It was an accident, but we were all sent to jail in Hong Kong. Which really stinks, because I love Hong Kong..." She 'hmms'. "I wonder if dickweed or arrow-face ever paid off the debt," she adds. I frown and say, "I wish she would stop calling me and Roy that."

"Well she most likely won't. You two were always on her bad side." Wally tells me. I roll my eyes, "And you weren't?" He replies with, "No, only when she was extremely pissed. Then she would chase me around and try to hit me with a frying pan."

"I still don't understand how she got that frying pan out of nowhere so quickly."

"Eh, me neither. But that's okay 'cause no one actually understood that."

We watch the T.V in anticipation. The Mistress of Misfortune asks questions that aren't answered. "Commence!" Someone yells. All of a sudden her 'cage' lights up and she's shocked with a bunch of electricity. "Give yourselves up or she'll become one of us."

Almost immediately Kid Flash stands up. "I say we give up!" He says. I hit the back of his head muttering an, "Idiot," under my breath. He rubs the back of his neck. Cyborg shakes his head. "That's actually probably the best idea," he says.


KK: Yeah, I know, short(ish) chapter... Don't be angry XD! The shorter the chapters, the faster I'll update.

Jinx: *face-palm*

KK: Yeah, I thought so too. Don't worry, I'll start longer chapters and (hopefully) update faster. Please review~!
