I know I made you wait, my pet, but trust me itmight have beenworth it
The pain, it was like a massive migraine. Jinx grabbed her head, slightly scratching her scalp with her nails as she clawed her head. Everything had been messy, blurry, confusing and painful, since…she had remembered Kid Flash had brainwashed her. She just wanted it to stop. "This, is so…unfair," she managed to whisper in her head. "Since when has life been fair?" The voice laughed. Loudly, more loudly then usual.
Tick Tock Tick Tock
Jinx's eyes glowed, as she managed to raise her head to look around. There wasn't any clocks, but she heard the ticking. The ticking, that, seemed to dominate over the pain, outdo it with its own torture. She had enough, without thinking, she reacted. The Hive Five sitting downstairs heard a clash, along with a series of booms.
"What the crud was that?" Gizmo only managed to whisper, only whispering, not able to gather up the courage enough to speak loud. Not with Jinx's threat still embedded in his head.
"Which one of you guys wants to check it out?" Billy Numerous, only one of him, nursing his hurt arm from Jinx's blast.
The room remained silent
"I think its best if we leave her alone…" Seemore commented.
"She's been acting…weird," Gizmo whispered again.
"Yeah…I wonder…why," Seemore replied slowly.
"And what the crud is wrong with you?" Gizmo turned on him suddenly. "You've been acting pretty funny yourself."
Seemore stared at him in confusion, and finally replied shrugging his shoulders, "Tired."
"Well, I guess we should be leavin now, shouldn't we?" Billy Numerous spoke up.
"Madame Rouge said we could leave tomorrow," Seemore replied.
"Ah forget it, lets just go, its friggin cold here, and like her little "friends" are gonna need our help anyways. The Teen Titans and Kid Flash are down," Gizmo smirked.
"Should we tell Jinx we're leaving?" Seemore asked his voice filled with concern.
"Who's we? If you want to get smackin killed by a psychotic girl then you go ahead," Gizmo shuddered at the thought of him speaking to Jinx.
Back upstairs, Jinx felt the pain drain away. Grabbing onto the wall for support, she turned and open the door. Light flooded the room and Jinx's cursed severely. She walked out slowly, wondering what to do. She leaned on the hallways wall, thoughtfully. Her eyes searched the barren hallway, and stopped on the ceiling. She scrunched her eyes slowly, and watched as the lines of the paint, seemed to form…a rose. She smiled, and caught herself. "Stop being such a freak!" she snarled at herself. She stood up, and an idea popped into her head. Taking the elevator she made her way down the building to sector five. After walking out of the elevator she noticed, the door she had wanted to go to was already open, and a man in white was talking in a monotone voice. Walking quietly behind him she noticed he wasn't the only one in white.
"Ah, Madame Rouge's henchmen," she said out loud. They immediately all turned around in shock, taking out electrical yellow devices and aiming them at her.
"HEY, WHO ARE YOU? STATE YOUR BUSINESS!" one of them demanded to her. He walked to her and stood close to her, looking down in her eyes. Trying to seem, terrifying.
Jinx smiled and spoke, "I'm Jinx, and my business is my own." The electric yellow devices seem to all crash and fade out. With that she blasted him across to the other side of the wall and slowly walked up to him. "Now lets show him how to be terrifying," she said to herself. "But unless you want your luck to run out, I suggest to show some respect," she spoke, her words dripping like smooth honey. She leaned over to his ear and whispered loudly, "I earned my name."
The man stood in silence, along with everyone else and finally gulped and pulled himself together. "Very well, you may stand back, we are taking these…children…into custody," he said, straining to sound professional.
Jinx stood silently staring deeply into his eyes, and finally took turned around and walked over to the wall. "Thanks for letting me stay, though, I didn't need your approval," she leaned against the wall.
He nodded and glanced over at the Teen Titans. "NO TALKING!" he barked at them, after noticing them whispering to each other.
Jinx smirked as she watched the six go up to Beast Boy's cage. Flipping on a remote, they pushed a button and the walls melted down.
"Stay still, no funny business. If you try anything, you receive an potentially fatal electrical shock," one of them said, holding his electrical yellow device. He then pulled out a purple robotic necklace.
"And what's that?" Beast Boy pointed at the necklace, backing up slowly.
"This, is to keep you under control," another smirked.
Jinx raised her eyebrows momentarily, "Surely they know…they have to know what these guy's are capable of…they had to be informed," she thought to herself.
But in a few seconds, Jinx found out that apparently they hadn't.
One of them reached out for Beast Boy, who turned himself into a tiger and bite the one reaching for him, hand. He screamed and the others grabbed onto Beast Boy, one aiming their yellow device at Beast Boy. However he was too slow to push onto the device before Beast Boy turned into an octopus and reached over and pushed the remote controls button that controlled the other's cages. All the walls melted down, and Jinx knew it wouldn't take long.
"TITANS, GO!" Robin yelled, already in fighting stance. Like it took much effort, they were against normal humans, thus they were against people with no power, and not much brains, easy to overcome. All they had were flimsy electric devices, as their only weapons. And though they might have been able to hurt the Teen Titans, they would never find out, as they had the speed of six guys who spent their days locked in dark rooms making pathetic attempts at weapons to control superhero teens, and trying to impress their bosses.
"Madame Rogue, did you really trust these guys?" Jinx thought to herself, looking at the henchmen all unconscious on the floor. The Teen Titans and Kid Flash now just standing there, watching Jinx.
"Well, well, well, looks like you guys are free," she spoke coolly, breaking the silence. "Bet you guys think you are going to get out of here alive and well," she smirked. "You probably can get whatever you came here for, easy now," she said, her face twisted into a slight form of pain. Thinking about anything involving the Teen Titans, Kid Flash, and her in the days she was brainwashed…hurt.
"I bet it hurts just thinking about it, huh," Kid Flash commented, his blue eyes staring straight into Jinx's.
Jinx snorted, "What do you know"
"I know that you know, that what you think happened over the last few days, isn't right," he replied wisely.
"Oh is that so? Suddenly you know what I think? I bet you think you know me," she replied, frowning this time.
"I know you better then you think I do," he smiled, and walked over to her.
"Oh, and I'm guessing from that smile, you like what you know," she replied mockingly, and took a few steps closer to him. Now they were only a few inches apart. "So what do you know, that makes you smile?" she smirked.
"I know, you're better then this," he gave her a sincere smile, that would make, a normal girl melt.
"Ah, I guess you think, I'm good enough to be good," she replied, putting a finger to her lips thoughtfully.
"Yep, Bingo!" he laughed.
"Hum…Why do you think…I'm good enough to be good? Haven't you ever thought you might be good enough to be bad?" she questioned him. "Of course, he would have to work on that smile…" she said out loud, to herself.
"Nah, I never could do the bad thing, but I know you can do the good thing," he said, still smiling.
"Bad wardrobe and all? Yay for me," she replied sarcastically.
"Nah, I like what you're wearing," he replied.
"Oh really? So you….like me?" she raised an eyebrow.
"I guess," this time he smirked.
"How much?" her eyes flashed mischievously.
He stood there silently.
"This much?" she questioned him. She then quickly threw herself, hard onto him, and wrapped her arms around his neck, and just as quickly pushed her lips onto his. Kid Flash wrapped his arms around her waist. Jinx had smacked her lips onto his. The kiss would leave a black and blue bruise. Jinx then pulled back, slightly shoving Kid Flash back to get out of the grasp his arms still had on her waist. She then wiped her lips with the back of her hand.
"Funny," she replied slowly as shelooked up at him, staring at his shocked eyes. "I thought it would be better." She then turned around swiftly and walked casually away, stepping over the unconscious bodies of Madame Rouge's henchmen. Kid Flash staring in disbelief as he watched her walk away, replaying what happened, and what she said over and over in his mind.
"Surely...what happened, couldn't have just happened...?" he thoughtpainfully to himself.
The Teen Titans stared in silence, not knowing what to say. What would make the situation any better?
"Dude?" Beast Boy replied sympathetically, breaking the silence.
Kid Flas remained silent and then opened his mouth and whispered slowly,"That wasn't Jinx…."
"I know, I know," Beast Boy said his eyes staring at the floor and his hands now clenched into fists. The Teen Titans now looked over at Beast Boy, each knowing what Beast Boy was talking about.
"Yeah?" Kid Flash turned around to him.
"Trust me," Beast Boy said, the words seemed to be painful for him to speak.
"What was her name?" Kid Flash asked.
"Terra," Beast Boy spoke, the word dripping with a heartfelt sadness.
I can't explain myself, Im afraid, sir," said Alice, "because I'm not myself, you see."
"I don't see," said the Caterpillar.
"I'm afraid I can't put it more clearly," Alice replied very politely, "for I can't understand it myself to to begin with; and being so many different sizes in a day is very confusing."
"It isn't," said the Caterpillar.
