I just...couldn't sleep.

"Fine, I'll help with the shield," she reluctantly said.

"GREAT!" Flash exclaimed.

"But afterwards, I wont help with anything else, got that?" she glared at him. "To make it perfectly clear, if a huge monster was about to eat you, and the only, THE ONLY, way you wouldn't become monster stew was for me to say "stop" you might as well be dashing yourself with salt, GOT IT?" she said pointing a finger at him.

"Yeah, yeah," he said waving his arms and taking a couple steps forward.

"HEY! WHAT DID WE DISCUSS LAST NIGHT?" she yelled.

"I thought we were suppose to keep that a secret between you, and me," he winked and grinned slyly making the other titans stared at them.

"If you do not stop it, and repeat what I told you last night, and you ran away to the other side of the world you would not escape my wrath," her eyes glowed a familiar pink.

"Under no circumstances am I allowed to come two feet near you, nor am I allowed to touch or pick you up again, because if I do you will become a greater fear worst than Madame Rouge," he replied in a bored tone.

"Alright we have no time to lose, Jinx stand next to me. On the count of three we are both going to aim at that spot. This will be for practice. Alright?" Raven said in a serious tone, annoyed with the fact she was awoken in the middle of the night, during which had to hold Jinx back from killing Kid Flash.

"Uh yeah, sure," Jinx snapped from glaring at Flash to staring at Raven.

"Ready? One, two, three, GO!" Raven exclaimed

BOOM

The two were thrown backwards, Raven manage to catch herself and floated into the air, while Jinx was thrown backward into the cold snow.

"Oww," Jinx exclaimed rubbing her head. "You are just always there when I DON'T need you arent you?" she glared at Flash. "Its just really funny how sometimes ice can feel like its burning when you touch it the wrong way," she thought to herself, as she looked at her bruised hands.

"Oh, so am I now allowed to pick you up?" Flash raised one of his eyebrows.

"Forget it!" Jinx replied. "Let me guess, our two powers don't mix?" her annoyance plain as she questioned Raven.

"Apparently. Instead we should hit two different spots near each other," Raven explained, "that way, there wont be a blast." After a couple more practices, Raven was finally satisfied.

"Before we actually go through, I am going to mediate for a while to regain my power's strength. So when we break part of the shield it will be broken for everyone to go through, including you and me," she said plainly and sat down.

"Fine, but when we go through, I'm not helping out," Jinx grumbled. "Be careful, you might start becoming a hero. Horrible wardrobe and all," a mocking voice in her head laughed.

After a few moments of silence Raven opened one of her eyes. "Shouldn't you be meditating?" Raven asked.

"That's not how I regain my power's strength," Jinx replied.

"Then do whatever you have to, we're going to need to make a big break in the shield, and I can't do it alone," Raven resumed closing her eyes.

"Okay, but only because you told me so," Jinx's eyes gleamed, as she smirked. "Let's remind them, of who I really am," Jinx thought to herself. She turned to look at a icy lake, she raised her hands in front of her face she slowly clenched her fists. Her hands glowed pink and then so did the outskirts of the frozen lake.An eerie silence formed around as everyone watched in confusion. The silence lasted till Jinx opened up her hands, and let go two sudden pink blasts. The lake's ice made huge cracking sounds as though a plane and been thrown on top of it. Then ice then completely crumbled.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" Raven exclaimed.

"You told me to strengthen my powers didn't you? Well the more I use them in a short period of time, the more energy I get!" she grinned slyly.

Raven stared hard at her and finally growled "Well can you do something more quieter then?"

Jinx rolled her eyes and once again her eyes glowed, she turned to Kid Flash and with one word, she murmured, "Run."

After hearing all the commotion from Jinx trying to hurt Flash, Raven finally yelled out, "OKAY! NEVERMIND THE MEDITATING, LETS JUST OPEN UP THE SHIELD!"

"Mmkay, whatever," Jinx said simply.

"Give it all you go Raven!" Beast Boy said, "Eh…you too Jinx…"Jinx shivered slightly. She never thought she would hear those words out of that mouth.

"When we do it, you guys have to go immediately through, when we all get through, Jinx, you come," Raven instructed, with her normal emotionless face.

"Great…I'm last," Jinx rolled her eyes. She spread her feet out a little bit and cracked her knuckles.

"Ready? GO!" Raven commanded. Black and pink lights filled the area and a quiet blast was heard. "NOW!" Raven yelled. A medium size yellow glowing hole appeared from the shield.

"HURRY UP!" Jinx managed to growl. "This is harder then I thought," she muttered to herself, straining a bit. Raven suddenly stopped to go through. "OH MY…" Jinx garbled out, it was bad enough with Ravens powers, but keeping it open alone? "Dammit, I cant even cut off my powers!" Jinx thought painfully to herself.

A sudden red and white flash and she felt like someone had thrown her across the room. She fell onto her knees in the snow panting, inside the shield. Her anger flared up and she raised her head. "I thought I said NEVER to touch me?" she spat at Flash. She turned her attention to Raven, her eyes slightly glowing, "AND you, sssaid, it would hold UP, after you stopped." "Next time, I'm going first!" she growled.

"Not unless I'm being held captive against my will," Raven voice now held a slight anger tone to it.

"WHATS THAT SUPPOSE TO MEAN?" Jinx jumped up, her eyes glowing viciously.

"I wouldn't try anything if I were you, you're not trustworthy as it is," Raven muttered.

"Why, thank you. Glad to know I accomplished one thing." Jinx smirked.

"Whoa, whoa, ladies, ladies, lets all calm down here," Flash laughed nervously, stepping in between them. "Jealousy is a bitter thing, I understand."

"Jealousy over what?" Jinx asked still trying to understand anything Flash said.

"Not over what, over whom," he struck a model pose. Jinx massaged her forehead with one of her hands.

"You, are really impossible," she grimaced.

They stood outside the front door, of the black castle like building. The windows were cracked,the door seemedto be coming off,and because they were in a deserted area, the only noise was of their breathing."Wow, this is really pretty," Jinx thought aloud.

"DUDE! This practically screams DOOM and you think its pretty!" Beast boy's mouth dropped.

"Where can you find places like these anymore? This place is beautiful," Jinx shot back. Beast Boy continued staring at her in disbelief. "Okay lets go," Jinx started walking around the castle.

"Where are you going, Jinx?" Starfire asked curiously.

"Oh well…are you're going through the front door?" Jinx asked in surprise.

"Where else would we go?" Raven glared.

"Maybe some place not so…predictable?" Jinx said. "But whatever, your funeral," she shrugged, as though she didn't care.

"Told you she was smart," Flash whispered loudly into Beast Boys ear, thus earning him "a look" from Jinx once again.

"If he's talking about me to them, he's dead," she stubbornly thought to herself.

They stood in the middle of a bare cold room. A old unused fireplace against a white wall, with tattered pieces of what would have been a rich elegant wallpaper. Their only choice of direction being the distant stairs to their left, old and feeble looking.

"Alright, everyone keep a look for anything suspicious. Cyborg and Raven, take up the front, Beast boy change into something that can fly above, Starfire and I will take up the back," Robin immediately instructed.

Jinx looked at him in awe, "Already he's giving instructions, AND his team follows them? No wonder we never stood a chance," she sighed at the last part. Robin raised his eyebrow at her, and Jinx blushed, "Stupid, stop staring!" the fimiliar "encouraging" voice growled at her.

Kid Flash murmured in her ear, "He's a really good group leader isn't he? That's a quality you admire, huh?"

"I think I admire that his team works well with him," Jinx whispered back, "So you don't have anyone to get jealous over."

Flash coughed and Starfire looked over. "Are you not well?"

Kid flash blushed, "Uh no, its just dusty and stuff in here." They walked silently up the stairs, which opened up into a hallway. "These creaky floorboards are being used as alarms of our location," Jinx thought to herself. For it was one of those useful tips a lot of Hive Students would use regularly.

"Hey, how many guys have given you roses before?" Kid Flash asked her out of the blue.

"That's none of your business," Jinx replied hotly.

"Well I was just wondering. Am I the first?" Kid flash grinned, flashing over to the other side of her.

"I told you that its none of your business," Jinx replied with a little more steam. She eyed Robin nodding over at Raven.

"Why do you always seem so tense? And on guard all the time?" Flash continued.

"Because, you don't win if you don't notice every single aspect," Jinx replied dully. Flash stayed silent.

"You're smart...and you deserve better. You don't even realize how bad you've gotten do you? I couldhelp you," he smiled comfortingly.

"I don't NEED yo…HEY WAIT, DON'T DO THAT!…" Jinx screamed as she had momentairly glanced over at Raven who was opening a door, but it was too late. There was grey smoke, and everything went dark.
