Chapter 51
Well I was just reading more of TheCovenant story a reviewer recommended, I must say that definitely falls under the list of gems for Klarion fictions. Klarion is such a cute little sadist it makes me wonder if all his fans are just a little masochistic.
Lui-Meow. No, not all. You're a sadist and you like him remember?
Me-LUI! My awesome most Bad-A cat OC outliner!
Lui-What?
Me-I'm trying to tell everyone you're my cat and I based Cherie Curie off of you.
Lui-Cherie? oh right…why do I have a woman's name?
Me-I told you I was listening to the Runaways when I made the name. it just stuck.
Lui-Right…anyway you're not masochistic; you hate pain remember?
Me-Oh yeah…haha ONWARD THE BATTLE FIELD!
"Let me go!" Lita shouted, as she tried to leave the house. Today was the day she and Impulse were supposed to go out on their date, and Klarion wasn't too happy about it.
"No, I refuse to let you go out with that boy!" He shouted, Lita frowned.
"You can't keep me locked up in here dad! I can perform magic too!" She shouted, Klarion scowled down at his daughter. She was right on that part; but, despite the fact that he trained her himself, he was still much more powerful than she was and could keep her magic tamed.
"You're not going, and that's final." He scolded. Lita let out a hiss.
"You wanna bet!?" She shouted, walking to the door. Klarion flicked his wrist locking the deadbolt on the door as she went to open it. Lita growled.
"Let me go out dad." She said, "Why are you so against me going out with him?"
Klarion paused, not really wanting to answer her question—which really irked Lita to no end. She let out a frustrated growl.
"Whatever don't answer you can't keep me here dad. I'm not a kid anymore." She said, Teekl meowed from Klarion's shoulders.
"Shut up Teekl! Nobody asked you stupid cat!" Lita hissed, Klarion's brows furrowed.
"Don't you snap at him; he has as much authority over you as I do. You're not going." He said, Lita huffed.
"I'm going, whether you let me go or I force my way out." She said.
"You're not going end of discussion now go to your room Lolita." Klarion said.
"I don't want to stay here anymore! It's suffocating! Why are you so against me going out?" Lita shouted, Klarion glared at his daughter. He may have been what caused Lita's new found temper; but he was beginning to grow tired of it.
"Because I said no!" He shouted, Lita growled as her palms began to glow with a purple and blue aura.
"I'm going!" She screamed, then grabbed the deadbolt ripping it from the door, "Like it or not!"
"No you won't!" Klarion growled grabbing Lita's arm, then before he realized what he was saying he shouted; "I won't lose you twice!"
The two froze; neither were expecting what Klarion had just shouted. Klarion loosened his grip on Lita's arm as she stared up at him. Teekl mewed then jumped from his master's shoulders onto the floor.
"Dad…"Lita began, turning completely around facing her father, who shook his head.
"I know things haven't been right since we got back, Lita; but you have to bear with me on this, we need to stay hidden long enough for everyone to stop hunting us down." He said placing his hand on Lita's shoulder.
"But dad, this is my first chance to act like a normal girl." Lita said, she looked up at her father and searched his eyes. Seeing that he wasn't about to change his mind no matter how much pleading and begging she sighed, "Can I at least call him to tell him I'm not coming tonight?"
"You can do that." Klarion said kissing his daughter on the forehead, "Then we can watch one of your favorite movies ok?"
Lita nodded, and flew off to her room to get some privacy to talk to Impulse and tell him that she had to cancel.
'You're upset.' Hatter said. Lita shook her head as she entered her room.
"It's fine; at least now he's telling me the truth." She said, "I hope Roger doesn't get too upset."
"If he truly loves you Lita he will understand." Cherie purred.
"I hope so. Then again he knows my dad so…we'll see right?" Lita asked snapping her fingers as a phone appeared floating in the air in front of her.
Later after she informed Impulse that they would have to reschedule their date—which created a very 'moded' (as he put it) Impulse—Lita went to the living room where her father and Uncle Abra sat—on either end of the couch—waiting for her. Lita couldn't help but laugh at them, neither one of them wanted to be near each other however there was only one couch—so in this case they had no choice. She then floated over and nestled herself between them, she then smiled—of all normal things she missed doing with her father and uncle, watching movies with them was by far the most missed.
"I found a new movie on the internet; it's super old, but I managed to find a download of it. I watched the whole series the other day and I think it's really cool." She said, then snapped her fingers as the TV flipped to the DVD. The two groaned when the movie came on; it was Harry Potter. Lita looked over at both of them in confusion.

The next day Jinx, Wonder-girl, and Batgirl were fending off Poison Ivy who was trying to get rid of a company for trying to level a forest to try and expand their business. Wonder-girl was fighting giant vine that had been brought to life with the help of Ivy's tamperings, while Batgirl and Jinx ran after Ivy herself.
"Yaknow not that I'm for Ivy's method of fighting for nature, but…why are we protecting a bunch of people who are leveling a forest for a parking lot?" Jinx asked torching a giant plant that was now wrapped Batgirl, who shrugged.
"Good question, because Ivy goes to extremes and even this company doesn't deserve being overrun by mutated plants?" she inquired. Jinx nodded.
"Hey! Less talk—more action!" Wonder-girl shouted ripping through the make-shift jungle.
"Sorry!" the two shouted back as Batgirl shot a baterang at the plant obsessed woman, entangling her within a cord and pulling her to the ground, where Lita then changed them into hand cuffs.
"Geeze crazy plant lady." Wonder-girl grunted as the remainder of the plants died from the lack of their master. Ivy glared up at the trio who stood over her.
"Now to just sit and wait for the authorities." Jinx said, as Hatter and Cherie meowed.
"Yup…so on a different note; I hear you had to cancel your date with impulse last night." Batgirl said, Lita gapped.
"There really isn't keeping any secrets with you Bat-brats is there?" She asked, Batgirl scowled, "Sorry."
"Wait you broke of your date? What's wrong?" Wonder-girl asked, Jinx jumped a bit in surprise in the game of twenty-Q.
"Nothing's wrong; my family and I are still technically in hiding, so my dad asked me to stay home that day." She explained, Hatter growled.
'Asked?' He had a mental breakdown.' She said as Jinx placed her hand on her familiar's head silencing her.
"So instead I watched a bunch of movies with my Uncle and dad." She said, "How do you know about that anyway?"
"Impulse told me." Batgirl said, Jinx nodded.
"I see." She mumbled suddenly they heard the sound of police sirens and the trio looked to each other.
"Well I believe that's your cue Jinx." Wonder-girl said, Jinx nodded; since she wasn't officially back on the team—and still in hiding she couldn't be seen by civilians, so when the authorities would show up she made herself scarce.
"See you guys back at the Cave." She said, as Hatter and Cherie meowed and she opened a portal stepping through.
~0~
When she stepped out of the portal she was at Mount Justice. Though she could easily just teleport through to the main hall she made it a point to not do that. This way she could never get chewed out by Batman on the morals of doing just that and though it really bothered her that she had to go through the door; she prided herself on having more self control than her father at her age.
'Recognized; 666 Jinx.' The computer said, Jinx narrowed her eyes.
"I really gotta talk to Batman about that." She mumbled.
"Who would have thought the Bat had a sense of humor." Cherie mewed Jinx giggled as she looked over to Blue Beetle and Robin who were sparing. She flew over top of them and smiled.
"Hey boys; have you seen Impulse?" she asked as the two stopped.
"Impulse is on a mission with Beast-boy, and M'gaan for a few days, won't be back till Tuesday." Robin said, "Didn't he tell you?"
"No, he did not." Jinx said, then sighed; well that sucked. Why hadn't he told her that. The two looked up at her.
"I wouldn't worry too much about it; maybe he forgot." Blue said, Jinx nodded.
"Maybe. So both Beast-boy and Impulse are gone?" she asked, Robin nodded as Jinx then floated down to the ground.
"Well I have no reason to go to Gotham High for a few days." She mumbled, then felt Robin place his hand on her shoulder.
"I wouldn't stay home if I were you; people still don't know those two are—unlike you." He said, Hatter hissed at Robin.
"Yeah thanks for reminding me Robin." Jinx said narrowing her eyes. Robin shrugged.
"Sorry; but if you don't show up then some people might make the connection that they're Garfield and Roger." He said. Jinx nodded, while her cats glowered at him.
"Yeah I get it; I'll still show up." She grunted.
"Something wrong Lita?" Blue Beetle asked, Jinx shook her head.
"Depends on what you mean by wrong; for one the schools out on the hunt for me since I'm a Witch-girl." She said, "Which subsequently left me to quit the cheer squad."
"You're a cheerleader?" Robin asked, then made a face like he was trying to picture Lita in her cheer uniform. Making Jinx feel very uncomfortable. Hatter growled.
"I was; but I had to quit—the girls aren't too fond of me becoming the captain's new favorite." Jinx explained, "Oh well; I suppose I shall grin and bear it."
"It can't be all bad." Blue said, Jinx shrugged.
"No, but it is getting annoying, it's hard to make other friends when the student body claims you've cast spells on them." she said, "This whole experience is really trying mine, and my familiars' patience."
"Well hang in there; I'm sure everything will get better." Robin said, Jinx held Hatter in her arms and put her face up to Robin's
"Tell that to her. She's not really the most pleasant person when it comes to other people." She said, Robin looked to Hatter who stared at him with a discontent look. She then growled and hissed at him.
"Yeah; I really don't think she likes me." Robin said, Jinx shrugged.
"I've noticed that too." She said then snapped her fingers as her outfit changed to her street clothes, "Well anyway; when Batgirl and Wonder-girl come around tell I went home early."
"Will do, Jinx!" the two said, as Lita then opened a portal and stepped through to go home.
~0~
Lita sighed; today was the first day she would be going to class without Impulse or Garfield. She wondered if she should have stayed home at least for that Monday, as she walked to school. Hatter and Cherie had decided to accompany her on her walk, and meowed.
"Like the boy Wonder said you must keep the identities of Roger and Garfield a secret." Cherie mewed. Lita shook her head.
"Yeah I know that. Still though; I was hoping to see Roger today, he won't be back until Tuesday." She said, "This is going to be a long week."
"Lita!" she heard a voice shout ahead of them, Lita looked up to see Jordana standing at the front gates of the school.
"Oh Miss Jordana; good morning." Lita said, "Why are you standing at the front gates."
"Because I wanted to talk to you." Jordana said, Lita tilted her head to the side.
"What about?" she asked.
"About what happened the other day, on the cheer squad." Jordana said, "Listen I'm sorry; this is all my fault. The whole Witch-hunt thing.
'No kidding.' Hatter growled, only to be nudged by Cherie who growled back at her.
"You're apologizing?" Lita asked, Jordana nodded.
"Yeah, so let me make it up to you. I know this awesome place we can go to during lunch." She said, "Let me treat you."
Lita looked down at her familiars who gave a looked that matched hers; confusion. She then looked to Jordana.
"What about your friends? The twins I mean." She said, Jordana huffed and placed her hand on her hips.
"Those two share half of a half of a brain. I'll be back to them before they realize I left." She said, Lita shrugged.
"If you say so; do you mind if my cats come along?" she asked. Jordana looked down at the two cats as they cave her their judgmental stares. She smiled uneasily.
"Sure, I know a guy that can get em in." She said, putting her arm around Lita's shoulders as they walked into school.
Ooh what's Jordana up to? Hmmm? Anyhow I bet you're all wondering 'hey when the frag are you gonna ring Raven back.' Right? Well not to worry; she'll be back in due time. n_n. however I'm going to focus on Jordana and Lita for a bit. Then we'll get into Lita and Impulse's relationship. XD anyhow review! I'm off to draw up Jordana and friends, and maybe a fanart of LitaXImpulse—or as most of you call them Magic-Imp. 'Don't get pouty; I invented pouty.' Still the best line ever, oh and 'Yeah, I'd bring the Chaos.'
