merry christmas everyone! :) heres the next chapter to 'A Jinxed Hero', enjoy!
It was a late Tuesday evening when the havoc occurred at the very top of the Eiffel tower.
"would you silence zat baby!" a masked man yells at a horrified young woman cradling a baby wailing in her arms, both were terrified. They were on the top floor of the Eiffel tower where the group of tourists cower at a mad man's mercy (who's body shape resembled a square) as his companions reign control over the Eiffel Towers electronics. Anyone on the Tower is now a poor hostage.
"I-I-I-I'm t-trying" the woman manages to respond but the baby just seemed to be feeding off her own fear.
"silence za baby or I will!" the masked man pulls out a gun and points it at the bundle in her arms.
"I wouldn't dare if I were you" a feminine voice growls from above.
The man looks up in confusion and sees a five-some of strangely dressed teens crouching around the very tip of the tower. A girl with bright pink, defying gravity hair jumps down to land in front of him.
"say hello to your worst nightmare" Jinx smirks and jinxes his gun into rubber.
The man yelps and throws the gun away and fumbles with a walkie talkie, "code rouge! Intruders! Like ze League of Justice!" he yells, but there's no reply.
Kid Flash appears beside Jinx, "the others are now chilling with the French police," he happily informs them.
Jinx nods, "grab him, Argent"
Next thing, Argent had her bright red giant fists around the man, he started squirming like mad.
Hot Spot jumps down and rolls his eyes, Jericho landing beside him, "I cant wait for the day we're fighting a snowman or something, then I will get to have all the action" he says.
"well, I guess there isn't many super villains in Europe anymore" Jinx says thoughtfully and looks at the captured man, "still.. this kind of easy stuff is too boring for my liking" the man muffled an insult in reply.
A few minutes later, the released hostages were being escorted home and the mad man and his team were being escorted to jail. The five titans gathered in a circle.
"for our first fight against crime, it say it wasn't a quarter of how I hoped it would be" Kid Flash pouts.
"hmm, maybe we were just unlucky." Argent adds, "not all criminals have super powers" Jericho nods from sitting on a big cement square/slash flower pot. He has been sitting there for the last half hour, as an extra guard, and found it deathly boring.
Jinx lets out a sigh and then puts on a happy face, "come on, team! Whatever the case, we just fought crime! Lets go get some super expensive ice-cream on Robin's tab!" she grins and the other's cheer.
But, just when they set off, a voice stirred the air.
"WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU'RE GOING"
The titans turned to see a huge dark hovercraft floating above the Eiffel Tower with nothing but the mark of figure 8 on its belly.
"what the hell is this!?" Hotspot yells over the noise.
"SAY HELLO TO YOUR OLD PALS, JINX"
Jinx blinked and it dawned, "the Hive Five! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?" she shouts, truly sick of her old team.
"REVENGE."
"Gah!" Kid Flash yells.
Jinx turns to see him immobilised by a green ray, she watches as he tries to run, vibrate his molecules, anything! But nothing works. The green light has him trapped.
The other titans all run to Flash's aid but in the blink of an eye, Kyd Wyckyd swallows his stunned body into the shadows.
"FLASH!" Jinx screams and grabs at the ground where he disappeared.
"Jinx!" Argent cries.
Jinx turns to see Argent frozen in a green light. "NO!" Jinx yells but its too late, Argent disappears into the black with Jinx's ex-team-mate.
"Jericho!" Hotspot yells, Jericho is in the green now. But, before Hotspot or Jinx could even react, he's gone too.
"Hotspot! We've got to-NO!" Jinx screams as Hotspot glows green and is swallowed up in a matter of seconds.
"STOP! LEAVE THEM ALONE, HIVE FIVE!" Jinx shouts and started shooting pink at the hovercraft but its too far away to take any damage. Jinx was about to run at it when the air starts to glow green around her and she becomes unable to move or shout any insults. However, when shadows start to appear, Jinx is not plunged into darkness but is instead met face to face by her old team.
"well, Jinx, have you missed us?" Seymour spits at her.
"you little crumb-bucket! You thought your precious titans had done away with us, huh? WELL THINK AGAIN!" Gizmo laughs, hovering in his flying contraption.
"I had forgotten what revenge felt like" Billy Numerous says in his western accent, "And it is go-o-o-ood!"
"bad Jinx" Mammoth grunts. Kyd Wyckyd watches the exchange silently.
Jinx has no choice but to listen to their nonsense as slowly the feeling of helplessness is setting in. she thought these guys had been tossed in jail in a frozen state after the whole brotherhood of evil thing. I guess I was wrong, she thinks
"teeheehoo! I like this right here!" Billy flicks at Jinx's hair, a growl resounds from her but Billy laughs harder, "ya know, Jinx, we heard you and that Kid Flash were an item"
The Hive Five waited for an angry reply from Jinx but she remained silent. Her anger and frustration would be a tense tremor if she weren't frozen.
"hmm.. While we have him prisoner, why don't we mess with Flash's head?" Seymour taunts.
Jinx's eyes start to glow but nothing else happens
Seymour snickers again, "go on, Gizmo. Do what we came here for"
"my pleasure!" Gizmo hovers closer to Jinx and reaches into the green light (unaffected) with a syringe an injects a black fluid into Jinx's arm. "that'll teach you to betray us" Gizmo mutters in her ear and backs away, "all right, its done. lets report back to base, he'll be wondering what took us so long"
"naww! we can't split the happy couple!" Billy comments sarcastically and Kyd Wyckyd disappears into the shadows.
"humph, happy" Mammoth says like a joke only he understands.
Kyd Wyckyd returns and pushes an unconscious Kid Flash out of his dark domain, he falls to the floor in heap.
The Hive Five group together, "well it was nice seeing you Jinx" Seymour says smugly, "its comforting to know that joining the Teen Titans has made you weaker rather than stronger"
"we'll hold onto your friends so you can have some quality time with your boyfriend" Billy chuckles
"bye bye" Mammoth waves before all five are swallowed up by Kyd Wyckyd's shadows and the hovercraft starts to move away.
Jinx collapses from the floor, finally free from the paralyzing green light, she gasps for breath.
"Flash.. Flash!" she crawls to him when he doesn't reply and pushes him onto his side, "Flash?" she murmurs to his face.
Slowly (for once) Kid Flash stirs, he rubs his eyes "ugh…. They.. They gave me an injection… white" he mumbles. Then suddenly he shoots up and grabs Jinx by the shoulders, "I HATE NEEDLES" he yells.
"are you ok? They gave me an injection too."
"I'm fine" he sighs and looks to the hovercraft flying off, "lets try get our friends back!" he says suddenly and pulls Jinx into his arms and bursts into speed until they are running below the fleeing hover craft.
Jinx lifts up a hand to generate pink energy before snapping her fingers when Kid Flash gets a rush of pain.
"gah!" he yelps and stumbles to a stop, Jinx climbs out of his arms and kneels beside him.
"what happened!?" she questions him but even her own power seemed a bit off too.
"I don't know" Flash shakes it off and tries to stand, seeming ok now, "try hit them again!"
Jinx stands and attempts to shoot but Kid Flash cries out and crouches on the ground, "what the…" Jinx murmurs in confusion, a thought occurs to her and she tries to jinx her none-existent shoes laces together but Flash yelps again.
The injections... The injections.. The injections. They have brought her worst fear to life.
"oh Flash," she whimpers and kneels beside him, he looks up to her and they lock eyes as he realises whats happening too.
"you're jinxed"
Its been a while but I'm back again. I have been looking forward to this chapter for a long time now and I just wanted to make sure I wrote it right.
