I wrote this before I said the no pairings thing, and I don't really see it as much of a pairing really. I don't think anyone will mind Speedy/Cheshire, right?

Okay, so I changed their fight scene. This would be if they had dialogue.


He wasn't alone, this much he knew. "Who's there?" He called, pulling out a bow and arrow. He aimed it a few trees, squinting around for a better look. "If you come out now, I swear I won't hurt you."

"You won't hurt me?" An astonished, female, voice said from above. Keeping the arrow in aim, Speedy looked up to see a girl with long black hair and a mask crouching on a branch above him. Her tone sharpened, "I think we've already been there."

He fired an arrow, to find she was already gone. Speedy turned in a full circle and by the time he had fully rotated, she was standing next to him. He fired a few shots, but she seemed to dodge everyone. She always had been graceful, even when angry.

She pushed him against a tree and forced him to stare into the eyes of her mask. "Can't we talk?" He said suavely with a cute smile. He barely dodged the slash of the extendable knives. "Jade, you're not being reasonable!"

"You have no right to use my name!" She screeched. She twirled again, kicking the communicator out of his hand. Nimbly, she swiped her 'claws' at his only defense: his bow and arrow.

In moments, the arrow was on the ground in pieces and the bow was shattered.

"Hey! You broke my bow!" Speedy exclaimed, holding the fragments of what was left of his archer's bow.

Behind her mask, Cheshire's eyes slit. She gave one last swerve of her head and the bendable steel rods she had used to separate her hair swung into his left temple, rendering him unconscious.

As she stared at his lifeless body slumped against the tree, she hissed, "You broke my heart."


Like I said, I hope no one will mind. Review if you want!
