I've beenfeeling drabble-ish lately.
Okay, I hope I don't offend anyone by this. This is just a 'What if' situation, don't take it seriously. There's a small amount of KFJinx hinting, but like I said, I don't have any direct pairings.
"You asked to see me, Sir?" Jinx asked, quietly tucking her hands behind her back.
"Yes Jinx, have a seat," the voice replied. Obediently, the pink-haired witch settled herself in the mahogany wood chair. The voice continued, "I have come to the understanding that you recently had a run with Kid Flash and Madame Rouge?"
Jinx nodded. "That's correct, sir."
"And the boy has convinced you to leave your team, I also see."
"They were only holding me back," Jinx defended. "I felt I would do better on my own. You, of all people, understand that, don't you?"
"That I do," the Voice replied. When the Voice said nothing else, Jinx felt pressured to continue. She paused before speaking, as though trying to find the correct words.
"The Brotherhood of Evil will fail; they underestimate Boy Blunder and his band of do-gooder cronies," Jinx snorted, folding her arms. "Even someone as dense as Kid Flash knows that."
"But the boy feels he has gotten through to you," the Voice pointed out.
"He might've," Jinx said, shrugging. Her lips then curved into a twisted smile. "Then again, he might've not."
"You're a smart girl," the Voice began. "But foolish." Jinx's smirk disappeared. "I feel you are not telling me the full truth. I tapped into the surveillance cameras at the museum; you were holding back. Perhaps you are not the thief you make yourself out to be."
Jinx's fingers curled around the end of the arms of the chair in attempt to refrain her anger from the insult. "You are, however, a good liar."
"No offense Sir," Jinx said, "but are you going anywhere with this?"
"I am," the Voice said sternly. "But before I continue, I'm curious; why did you keep that rose?"
"However cocky, the kid was cute, and the gesture was," Jinx trailed off, struggling to find the word, "sweet."
"Do you have it with you now?"
"What, the rose? No…" Jinx said slowly. Maybe Bird Boy had something right when he accused him of being a madman. He surely showed signs of mental instability…
"Pity," the Voice kissed his teeth. "But moving on, I have a proposition for you."
Jinx's eyebrow shot up. "Oh?"
"The Brotherhood of Evil thinks they have the upper hand at the moment, but are unaware of the regrouping Kid Flash has done."
"What?"
"As you are aware, Kid Flash has been rather…freelance lately, and thanks to you, was unattainable by the Brotherhood. He's been scouring the world for the titans that were supposedly beaten and reorganizing them to attack the Brotherhood all at once," the Voice said calmly.
"How do you know all this?" Jinx asked.
"How I came across this information is my business, and none of your concern," it snapped. "But he trusts you, and that is where you come in."
"Sir, I don't understand."
The voice sighed. "He will come for you—"
Jinx's eyebrows furrowed as she asked, "Kid Flash?"
The voice continued as though it hadn't been interrupted, "And you will go with him. You will fight against the Brotherhood, and you will be accepted as a Titan."
"Whoa, whoa!" Jinx exclaimed, putting her hands up. She laughed nervously, shaking her head. "You know, I don't know about my hearing, but I think you need to go back to the home right now…"
"A brave thing to say," the Voice observed. Jinx only stared on further, still appalled. "If you accept and go with him, I will pay you more than you will ever manage to steal in your life"—Jinx's attention was caught—"and you'll never have to even consider pilfering again. You'll be well liked and you'll have friends who aren't complete idiots and capable of conversation."
Jinx said nothing for a time, pausing to comprehend the information. After a while, she raised her head, eyebrow still raised, and spoke, "Sound's fair, but what's the catch?"
The Voice chuckled. From the shadows emerged a tall, muscular man, his face hidden behind a one-eyed orange and black mask. "I'm willing to take a stab at another double agent."
I know that there are some big KFJinx lovers out there who aren't gonna like this, but as a KFJinx supporter myself, I still rather like the concept.
Who knows? Maybe she'll be like Terra and regret it. She just won't...die... Or suffer from a strange case of "amnesia". -shifty eyes-
