Chapter 4: Lucky goes on the Titans training course against a robot Jinx. Will she survive?
Lucky stood on her side, and Jinx stared at her. Then, Jinx sprinted forward fifty yards, and the ground behind her rose up with her pink waves. Lucky just stood there looking at her, and as Jinx threw her hand out, Lucky brightened with a shiny aura around her and suddenly, as Jinx swung her arm; Lucky disappeared and appeared behind her. Lucky threw her fist at Jinx, and the fiery glow of the fist sent the robot sprawling. The rest of the Titans looked on.
"Why isn't Lucky's fire melting the robot?" questioned Starfire as they all stared as Lucky attacked the robot with many fireballs (actually sun bolts, but...) that flared and pounded the robot. Jinx tried to retaliate, but Lucky flipped backwards and quickly sprinted to the end of the course. Then, she turned around and taunted the robot to come and attack.
"Because the robot is made to be just like the villain, so Lucky can't burn Jinx," explained Cyborg as he and Raven sat on a boulder, watching Lucky. Suddenly, Beast Boy ran over to Robin and whispered to him, "Make the level of difficulty higher."
Robin turned it to "7," and the panting Jinx quickly stood up and threw pink waves at the ground, causing it to break. Lucky calmly jumped of the ground and a board of fire was created beneath her feet. She surfed toward Jinx and leapt of the board, doing a double flip before planting a firm, super sonic, fiery kick at Jinx's back. Lucky stood near the panting Jinx, and then, Jinx quickly grabbed Lucky's foot. All around Jinx was a wall of fire that burst out of nowhere, but the robot Jinx jumped out of the ring of fire and kicked Lucky. Lucky crumbled, and Starfire, Terra, and Raven gasped. But then Lucky jumped back and kicked Jinx in the chin before going into a back flip. She withdrew a few bombs and threw them at the running Jinx. All around Jinx exploded lava bursts.
Then Lucky concentrated and yelled, "Earth!" and the ground shook on the course. Then, as Jinx recovered, and ran forward, Lucky used all of her strength and the ground split, Between Jinx and Lucky a rift with a river of lava divided them. The other Titans gasped. Jinx seemed unconcerned (being a robot) and prepared to jump. Lucky chanted, "Fire! Rise up and help your sister!" The lava rose, and brilliant fire rose from the rift. But Lucky wasn't done there.
"Sun and Metal combine!!" Lucky screamed, and she was lifted up into the sky. Her body became a bright ray from the sun, and the Titans shielded their eyes, and when the light vanished, the saw a new Lucky. She had on a sleek metal helmet with a sun symbol on it, and on her knees and elbows were metal plates. Her clothes, now completely silver with flares of red, orange, and yellow, were light as feathers but strong as steel. And around her neck, a bright sun symbol glowed with a Yin sign next to it. She withdrew her flute, which was polished silver with touches of the brilliant sun gleaming in it. Lucky yelled, "Earth, Sun, Fire, and Metal, combine!" Her fire board returned and she leapt onto it, rising off the ground. Then as Jinx managed to cross the rift, she played a peppy and fiery Chinese tune. All around Jinx, the earth cracked and fire danced around the confused robot. Then, Lucky quickly put her flute away in its case and leapt of the fire board that floated thirty feet of the ground. The Titans looked at her crazy dive. Lucky's suit, gleamed with the Sun's ferocity, began to glow, and then Lucky yelled, "I take this for Yin and for the Sun!" She dived in onto the Jinx and punched it hard. The robot exploded, and the Titans watched the smoke lift, and among the rubble stood the successful Asian girl. Lucky bowed at the surprised Titans. They all looked at the control, and they saw Robin had put it on "10". Lucky walked toward Starfire. Starfire stared at the small, but strong Asian girl.
"Well, your time is two minutes and twenty-two seconds! Nice record, by the way!" said Cyborg. Lucky's face gleamed with hard work, and she smiled.
"Thank you. I think I'll go to the lake. I need to meditate," said the girl as she brushed pass the other Titans.
"Wow," said Terra and Beast Boy, who were shocked at how a tiny girl could do so much. Everyone watched her go off. Then Raven appeared before her.
"You're not done yet. You need to complete all five of the training courses before you are done," said Raven, this time in a warmer voice. Lucky smiled and walked back to the group. She stepped onto the platform again, and was sent against Cinderblock and Gizmo. In one minute she successfully damaged the robots, and during the speed and reflex course, she was very quick and alert. It was nighttime by the time the Titans were done with their training course. All the Titans liked Lucky, who looked happy and cheerful. After another great Chinese meal prepared by Lucky, she went outside and called Spark.
"Hey, it's me! I just defeated three fake bad guys today using my powers. Say, when can we meet? I think I'll reveal you to the Titans. We could show them all that we got!" She listened and nodded her head. "Sure, we'll meet again at the coffee shop. Bye!"
Lucky shut off her cell phone and looked at the calm waves. She took out her flute and played a slow, but peaceful song. She looked around, and sensed a presence. But it was only Sunny (her cat), coming back with news. Lucky listened to the cat jabber away, and though for a while. Then, she stood up. But she didn't know that two eyes were watching her. One of the eyes was green and happy, while the other pair was evil and thoughtful. Lucky turned around and headed inside. The evil eyes chuckled and said, "Soon, you may become my new apprentice, Lucky."
Starfire had hidden and watched her friend. She had heard the conversation, and decided to follow Lucky in the morning. Starfire quickly flew to her room, and had gone to bed at six o' clock. Lucky silently entered and put down her stuff. She looked at her friend and said, "Good Night Starfire." Lucky flew into a deep sleep.
At two a.m., Lucky woke up and brushed up. She quickly loaded her equipment and left a note for Starfire. Then, while the moon still gleamed, she played a soft melody, and the sun rose a little, but fell down again. Lucky jumped up onto her fire board and quietly flew to the coffee shop. Unknown to her, Starfire was following her, and carefully flew after her. When they reached the quiet , but dark coffee shop, it was three o'clock. Lucky walked into stall twelve and sat down. Starfire flew in and sat down in stall eight across from it. Moments later, footsteps quickly entered the room without a sound, and a voice said, "Hello Lucky." The voice was dark and mysterious, and jut as it continued to speak, Starfire threw open the curtain and held her glowing green palm at the enemy.
"Stop! If you dare to hurt my friend, I will be forced to hurt you too!"
The figure laughed. "We'll see about that!" She drew her twin sais and grinned her gleaming smile that brightened the darkness.
Well, a pretty okay chapter 4! I'm working on it!!! Any way, I can't update very frequently because my computer caught a virus and I rebooted the whole computer! (I couldn't save my files!)
Hint of the day: Save on floppy disks.
