To Loki14: Wow! I'm making people cry! And for some odd reason, I like it. Oh well, here's another tear-full chapter! Oh yes, I'm glad you think I did a good job on the paring. I thought I made it maybe a little too fluffy there for a while -;

Sorry about the lack-of-updates, but I have a very strict updating rule: If no one reviews, no writing. It was killing me! I so wanted to write this chapter!

Warning: It's back! Save the women and children! The gigantic fluffy mass now has sharp, pointy teeth! AHHHHHH! A.K.A. This starts out as an incredibly fluffy chapter, but then Jinx goes mental! WEEEE!

Note: I noticed in chapter 1, when Cyborg and Gizmo were having their little bitch fight, I put in references to a few episodes (Crash and Car Trouble, to be exact). Then I realized OMFG! I never put in a reference for Deception! Which is only the biggest hint of Gizmo/Jinx to date! Okay, so, it's the only hint of Gizmo/Jinx to date… Just don't throw anything at me this time. Gets hit with a duck. Anyway… I made up for it big time in this chapter! So if you haven't seen Deception yet, there are some spoilers in here. Yup. Not big ones, but they are there.

Chapter 4

$& THE HIVE $&

Gizmo stretched his arms above his head, he just had a nice long nap and he felt great! The nurse from before told him he should try to go on the roof for some fresh air. He shrugged and hopped out of bed. Walking to the elevator, he realized that Jinx damaged his Jet Pack earlier. Got to work on that later…

Stepping out onto the roof, a cool breeze hit Gizmo's face. It really is nice out here… Dokonodoitsu? On the edge of the roof, a lithe figure stood, looking out onto the last moments of the sunset. Even though her hair wasn't up in its 'normal' style, he immediately recognized it to be Jinx. "Jinx…? Is that you?" Gizmo asked quietly.

Jinx whipped around so fast even she was afraid she was going to fall. "Gizmo! Wh-What are you doing here?"

"Doctor's orders. What are you doing here?" He said taking a few steps closer to her.

"I…" Why don't you tell him, girl? Tell him what you're planning to do. "…Can't go on anymore…" Jinx said almost silently.

Her answer hit Gizmo like a knife through his chest. His head spun, and he felt like collapsing. The last time he felt like this, was at that dance when Stone/Cyborg was still attending/spying on the HIVE. It pissed him off to no end when he thought about that dance. Seeing Jinx in that beautiful dress, dancing gracefully, smiling that cat-like smile of hers… But then the tin-man had to be with her…

"Gizmo…" Jinx's words snapped him out of his thoughts. "I'm… Sorry…"

Gizmo's eyes glistened in the last moments of the setting sun. "Don't be. I'm the one that should be sorry… It was something I did, or something I said. I just know it…" She probably hates me because I'm constantly pissed at her lover-bot! I should have shut him down when I had the chance…

Well, girl? You have two possibilities at this point; If you jump, he'll jump after you. If you don't, you'll kill him. He'll die either way, so just save your self, my pet. "No…" Jinx mumbled.

"Don't lie…" Gizmo said with a glum smile on his face. "I know it's about me, okay?"

"No!" Jinx wiped a stray tear away from her eye with her sleeve. "It's not about you! It's about me!"

The sun sunk behind the sea that bordered the city. "Oh no! Run! Hide!"

"Jinx. I'm not going to leave you when you're about five seconds away from jumping off a building. I don't CARE how much you love him, it doesn't matter!"

"Ha, ha, ha, ha!" Jinx's voice wasn't her own. It was… darker, more sinister. "You've made a foolish mistake, boy!" Her eerie speech was followed by a howl to the just emerging blue moon.

Well, that's probably not normal…

Jinx's appearance changed to mimic a dog's. Her nose and mouth formed a snout. Her ears moved to the top of her head and became pointed. She grew a tail, fluffy and pink. If Gizmo hadn't witnessed it, he would have called himself crazy. But there was no denying it; Jinx had turned into a wolf.

With a snarl and what appeared to be a smirk, the wolf jumped at the smaller boy, slashing him and giving him a nasty gash across the chest, than jumping behind him, preparing for another blow. It stung and it was deep, but Gizmo knew that it wasn't fatal. Panting, he grabbed the remote that controlled his Jet Pack and pushed a button, causing bat-like wings to hold him in the air. It was damaged, but it would probably take him far enough.

$& TITAN'S TOWER $&

Azerath Metrion Zinthos… Azerath Metrion Zinthos… Azerath Metrion Zinthos…

BEEP, BEEP, BEEP, BEEP

"Titans trouble!" Robin shouted knocking Raven out of her trance. "Gizmo's been spotted above the city! Let's move!"

Raven closed her eyes in thought. Gizmo? Without Jinx or Mammoth? I know he's done that before but… this seems different… Robin would just act like the justice junkie he is… Cyborg would probably punch him… Beast Boy's a moron… Starfire would probably never shut up about Romeo and Juliet…"I'll take care of it," Raven said icily.

"Uh… You sure Rae?" Cyborg asked. "He can be pretty mean when he wants to be…"

"I can handle myself." Raven floated out the door and out into the night sky.

$& JUMP CITY $&

Raven flew through the city following Gizmo's path. She found him on the top of a church, hunched over next to some gargoyles. He blends in with them shockingly well… I nearly missed him. Raven landed on the steeple. "Rough night?"

"You have no idea…" Gizmo paused for about two seconds before he whirled around. "Why aren't you, like, arresting me or something?"

Raven chuckled. "I felt that there was another reason for you roaming the streets than committing a crime…"

"Oh. Well, where's cy-brat?"

"Jealousy is a powerful emotion."

"I'm not jealous. Why should I be?"

"I'm not sure. Why don't you tell me?"

"I'm not jealous of him! Okay?"

"Don't bother hiding it. I can sense your emotions." Raven sat next to him, letting her legs hang off the side of the tower. "I can also read minds. But, I feel it's an invasion of privacy, so I'd rather you tell me than me finding out for myself."

"It's…" Gizmo felt weird telling someone he considered a 'foe' what his problems were, but what could he going to do? It was either telling her, or having her read his mind. "…Jinx…"

"What about her? Is she alright?"

"I… Don't really know… I found her tonight… Up on the roof… She was about to jump…" Gizmo held back tears. He was willing to tell her what was wrong, but he wasn't letting her see him cry.

Raven gasped. Jinx? Trying to commit suicide? That doesn't seem like her at all… "It's okay…" Oh, perfect. I have no idea how to comfort people. Let alone people I don't know very well… Raven bit her lip. Sometimes I wonder why I even bother… She let out a small sigh and pulled Gizmo into a sufficiently awkward hug. Starfire is so much better at this than I am… I really wish I brought her along…

Gizmo inhaled sharply, his wound started to hurt, once again. He gently pulled out of Raven's 'I'm trying really, really hard, so bare with me' hug. "It's not you, it's just…" Gizmo pointed to the slash on his chest.

Raven looked at it for a few seconds. "We need to get that looked at."

"Um… We?"

"I'm taking you to Titan's Tower. We have a state-of-the-art medical wing,"

Raven said, picking up Gizmo in her arms and taking off.

"What is this, a commercial?"

"Don't make me drop you."

Despite resent events, Gizmo laughed.

$& AUTHOR'S NOTE $&

I don't know why, but I decided to end this chapter on a happy note. - It's always a good thing!

I also decided to center this chapter (and the next couple) around Gizmo, rather than Jinx like the other three chapters. There might not be anyone aside from me who thinks he rocks in his own way, but if there is, THEY DESERVE THIS!

Translation time!

Houyou Embrace

Dokonodoitsu Who in the world…?

Well, review as usual. But also, I have a question to ask!

Should I have Raven and Gizmo get together?

I left it sort of open in this chapter… But I want to know how far I can go with this until flames pop up from all the Rae/BB shippers… Which no one wants because they are vicious, vicious people! I know, I'm one of them. BUM, BUM, BUUUUUUUUUUUUUM!

I know that the main paring of this is Gizmo/Jinx but Jinx'll be out of the picture for a few more chapters considering no one wants to hear about a pink wolf eating people. So, the next few chapters of this saga will be centered on Gizmo mostly, but the Titans will be there as well.

Really, either way, Rae and Giz'll be interacting more than any of the other characters, but I just want to see about a possible love triangle? Love square really, once you count Cyborg. Or a pentagon with BB… Or a hexagon with Bumble Bee… But the point is! Is a side/implied romance of Gizmo/Raven a good thing? Just tell me in your review, if you leave one.

I'm done, finally!

Peace out!
