Or else! Tee-Hee! ;) OH! And this IS a CyXJinx chappie! WAHOOOO! ;) OH! And PS- Lightspeed, best episode EVER! Hive's POV, sorta reminds me of mistressmarionette's H is for Hive, (great fic by the way!)
That night, while Kris, Gizmo, and Daima tried their luck at finding a way out of the dark prison section of the warehouse, while Jinx and the remainders of the rest of the Hive seven were at home, and worrying over Gizmo.
But as anticipated, Jinx was the most paranoid of them all.
All day, she and the others had been calling and talking to various other Hive agents and teachers, but none seemed to know of where their friend could be. Not one person.
Jinx was nervously pacing back and forth in the living-room of the dorm house, with her hands balled up close to her face. Finally she stopped and burst out crying. "Where is he? Please! PLEASE come home soon! My Gizmo." Jinx finished in a whisper, she was sobbing her heart out on Mimi's shoulder.
"Okay Jinxie, you need to rest, he'll be fine, and if he comes back, we've got everything covered here. Okay?" Steffauri said as Jinx nodded and raced up to her room, slamming the door shut, and locking it tight.
She flopped down onto her pink, four poster bed. She looked almost dead with her lithe body, smeared make up, and wispy, unkempt hair.
Turning over, she saw something from under her bed poking out from it's skirt a little ways. As she picked it up, she smiled. It was basically a rag doll she'd sewn awhile ago on free time.
And it did greatly resemble Gizmo.
Which made the young witch somewhat happier. "I miss you so much. And right now, just the thought of you home in my arms, puts my heart and emotions at ease, for the moment." Jinx thought as she held the almost life sized Gizmo doll close to her heart, like she did with Gizmo.
Suddenly, there was a knock on her door, she covered up the doll with her bed spreads and opened the door.
It was Mammoth, with a short straw in his hand, Jinx knew what this was instantly, he'd been hand selected to talk to her, but about what, she didn't know. And as of now, she didn't really want to. But she let him in anyway.
"What do you want?" Jinx asked, sitting down on her bed, hugging her knees.
"Well, we all took a vote, and well, we think we need to get help from the Titans on this one. But, we thought it might be a big deal to ya, 'cause of well, you know." Mammoth finished, looking slightly guilty, as Jinx jumped up from her bed.
"THE TITANS! Are you outta you're fucking MIND?" Jinx cried out angrily, fighting off tears once more.
"NO! And Jinx, admit it! You've gotta get over him eventually! And I do know that for a fact, there's a deeper part of you that still likes him, remember that." Mammoth replied as he shut the door and left.
"W-wait! I'll call them." Jinx finally decided as Mammoth opened her door, and gave her that classic- 'I knew you'd see it my way!' smiles. The witch simply slugged him in the upper arm, having little effect on the burly Hive Agent.
Meanwhile, at Titans Tower, Robin was running a sweep of the city to see if he could find this, now unveiled assassin. (But! Remember, the Titans DO NOT KNOW who he is yet…..)
"Damn it! This bastard's been running from us for almost four or five months, now! Why the hell can't we bring him down? There's never been a single villain that we couldn't stop, and I'm not about to let him be the first!" Robin cried out as the large computer screen in the front of the room went black, and then panned to Jinx's face.
"Jinx! What do you want?" Robin asked in a shallow tone of voice.
"Well you don't have to be such a serious asswipe about it! But, I do need you're help, very badly." Jinx said, letting out a heavy sigh.
"What kind of help?" Robin asked as he let Jinx continue.
"It's, Gizmo. Ever since he left for Harmony City three or four days ago, we've lost all contact with him, we can't get his communicator signal, no phone calls, nothing. And we think that, that assassin you're after has a major role here. So, my point being, that if you go to Harmony City with us, and we find the assassin, more than likely, we'll find Gizmo. See, you get you're assassin, we get our Gizmo, everyone wins." Jinx finished.
Robin then put a hand under his chin, deep in thought.
"Alright, we'll have a truce, but ONLY until this is over! Is that clear? You're group will meet us at the tower, ASAP. Got it?" Robin asked as Jinx nodded and the computer console panned back to the scanner photo of the city.
"Robin, are you sure we should be siding with the Hive?" Raven asked, shutting her book and walking over to him.
"Yes, we need to catch this guy, and if he really does have Gizmo, that's important, too. And I promised myself, and this team, that we'd never loose an innocent life. And I know, Gizmo can be a little ass sometimes, but in this case, he's a victim." Robin said, as his team was finally swayed enough to agree.
About thirty minutes later………. The other six members of the Hive Seven had arrived, and were gathered in the living-room with the Titans. Each of the groups feeling slightly uneasy about the whole thing, and more than ready to pounce on their enemies.
Robin was typing furiously at the buttons on the computer console, and Mimi was assisting him.
Jinx was merely standing in the middle of the room, with both of her hands clasped together between her bosoms. When she felt a hand on her shoulder, as she whipped around, she saw that it was Cyborg, ready to sneak out of the room with her at moment's notice.
Which, he did.
In Cyborg's room- The teen hybrid and Jinx were sitting on his bed/charging station, talking.
"So, uh, what ever provoked in Hive to get a crush, on me? I mean, seriously, there were TONS of other pretty girls you could've had a chance with. Princess Steffauri, Angel, Bumblebee, and there was so many more! So, why me?" Jinx asked curiously.
Cyborg began to blush a deep red.
"Well, uh, I uh. There was something about you that just struck me as- amazing." Cyborg replied, as he looked over to Jinx, whom was smiling. Her pink catlike eyes, glistening in the dim light of the room. She then leaned closer, as if demanding a kiss, but Cyborg tilted his head away at the last moment.
"Well, ih, you know, we really should be out there tryin' to help our teams out!" Cyborg lied as he got up.
Jinx was still sitting there, her face then sported a longing and yet offended look, which quickly turned to angry, and offended. She got up, and stormed out of the room past Cyborg. Whom was about killing himself for being too nervous, to do what he really wanted, all this time.
Back at Sherry and Blood's HQ….. The two of them were plotting more for the auras.
"So, when do we leave?" Sherry asked her father, as she leaned over his desk, her blonde hair wavering down over her cleavage, as she sported an evil smile.
"Tonight." Was Blood's only word of reply to this.
In the warehouse, Gizmo, Daima and Kris were almost to their destination, but still in the dark. And Kris was going to kill himself right then and there if his two children asked him even one more question. But this time, it was important. Or at least, to the children it was.
"Hey dad? Oh man, that sounds weird, um, I have something to ask you." Gizmo said.
"Alright, shoot." The azure eyed man stated as Gizmo walked closer to him.
"Well, ever since I met you, I-I wanted to know, what's mom like? I-is she still alive?" Gizmo asked. Kris nodded. "If you've got time for a long story, I suppose there's time for a break. No rush, right!" Kris said as he and the two children sat down in one of the dark hall's passages.
"Well, you already know how you're mom and I met, but what you didn't know, was a little bit more about herself. We got married at an early age, she was sixteen, I was nearing eighteen. And as soon as the wedding was over, she tells me, she wants to have a child. And I wanted to wait, but I'd also remembered that her parent's family, had a basic law on when you had to have children in a royal family, she was shockingly enough a year late. But, a few months passed, and Trinity Erista came along. And then I decided I wanted a son, which enters Zofis. Anywho, after we had our first seven, Katrina wouldn't be able to bear children for awhile more, so she talked me into adopting. And that was when Kole came into the picture. She lived with us for about five to seven years, and then left to the arctic circle for some odd reason. Never saw her again. And then lastly, came you two. But you're mom loves kids, trust me, if she could bear a thousand of them, she would. But she is still alive, and she can't wait to meet you. When we get back to Pahora, I'm sure it'll shock her a little though to see how old you've gotten. But for now, we'd better keep on moving." Kris stated as the small group moved on.
Back in Titans Tower, there was still no sign of the hooded assassin, and it was getting later and later by the moment.
"C'mon Robin, there's not a whole lot you can do right now, so I say we just kick back a little, and let nature take it's course. You know, don't go looking for him, and he'll come to you. Just wait for the alarm to sound, 'kay?" Hayley said as robin smiled at her, getting up from his seat and kissing her before he walked over to the round couch where a few others were sitting as well.
Jinx gazed around the room simultaneously, and in regret. Almost everyone had someone in the room, Hayley had Robin, Steffauri had Beast Boy, Mammoth had his sister, almost everyone had someone to love in the room. Jinx felt left out, and alone.
Meanwhile, Cyborg was up in his room, looking at pictures of him and the Hive Seven, and some of just he and Jinx. And other momentous pairs and events.
He was longingly reminiscing over his past at Hive. How much he wanted what he figured he couldn't have- Jinx.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. "Come in!" Cyborg called as he saw a devil horned shadow emerge form the hallway. The door closed with a woosh behind her as she walked in and took a seat next to him.
"So, what do you think it would've been like?" Jinx asked, holding up the photo of she and Cyborg dancing.
"You know, I really don't know. But sometimes, I-I get this feeling, like, even though I want you, more than anything, that, that it wouldn't work out. I mean, you've got a group to lead, Gizmo to take care of, lots of plans and school shit to work on. And, I mean, we're from different sides of the block here. You're a villainess, I'm a Titan. It wouldn't work out." Cyborg finished as Jinx rested a pale hand on his shoulder.
"Well we can make it work, right here, right now." Jinx said as the two moved closer, and closer, but then- BLEEP! BLEEP! BLEEP! BLEEP! The Titans alarm had sounded. Startling the two into bumping heads instead of kissing. The two dashed out from Cyborg's room and into the living-room.
Where everyone was waiting.
"Alright teams, we still don't have anything from Gizmo, but we've got a lock on the assassin, he's headed for the space center with his partner! Titans, Go!" Robin shouted, as Jinx signaled for her team to follow along as well.
At the space center, Brother Blood and Sherry had their own ship ready to go, Sherry was busy welding on the containment piece for the Auras, while Blood looked over his plans.
"This is a very exciting time, isn't it?" Blood said, as Sherry finished, as walked over to stand beside him.
"We should prep for launch, just in case, but trust me, they'll never make it to us ion time." Sherry stated, checking her watch, as the two walked over to their ship at a fast pace.
As soon as the two were in, and just lifting off, the Titans and the rest of the Hive seven showed up.
"STOP!" Robin cried out, but the winds from their ship were so violent, it threw them all back, so Robin's birdarangs and grappling hooks were completely useless for now.
"Alright teams, new plan, Me, Cyborg, BB, Mammoth, Jinx, Mimi, Private Hive and See-More, we'll go back to the tower, and get the T-Ship, everyone else that can fly in deep space, you go ahead, and track down that ship!" Robin ordered as Steffauri, Hayley, Raven, and Starfire flew off at alarming speeds.
But little did the groups know, they'd be far too late.
The Blood's had built a ship with amazing speed levels, and since Pahora wasn't that far away, they could already be there, and the worst expectation coming true- They were.
Blood and Sherry had only just defeated, and killed several guards of the Auras, and blocked the paths so no one else could get through.
Blood held open a large box, as Sherry went for the red Aura, the Aura of fire. But it circled past her, but the second time she jumped, she didn't miss.
Sherry fell back to the ground with the 1 ½ foot wide Aura in her arms, and then she dropped it into the box. The two evildoers watched happily and maliciously as the two opposite currents of the other Auras clashed.
"Take the other one!" Blood called, then pointing to the Aura of Ice, the blue one. Sherry snatched it, and lay it beside the fire one.
But there was no time to hesitate, or snatch up another aura, as the place was starting to crumble right before them. They hopped in their ship, and flew to a safer location in Pahora, tucked away and hidden form the city. A deserted mountain village, where you could see all of Pahora.
Meanwhile, from her palace's bay window, Queen Katrina watched as a huge, deafening explosion filled the area, Aura tower, was gone.
"It- has-begun." Katrina said to herself, as she turned away from her near annihilated kingdom.
