In Hell-

Jinx merrily watched the revenge mad creatures tear themselves apart by clawing against her aura. She tried to laugh but then the convulsing started. It was as if she was trying to retch up a great mass, but from her lungs and not her stomach. Her aura flickered as she came to her hands and knees.

In the T-Car-

"I think we just lost Starfire.", Robin said solemnly.

"What?", Cyborg asked from the driver's seat. "How do you know?"

"The medical monitors I have on her just fried.", the Boy Wonder responded.

"I didn't notice her wearing anything knew.", Cyborg retorted.

"That's because I told her the four were nipple jewelry that would make me feel like I was keeping watch over her.", he explained. "It's the truth."

"So what now?", the driver asked.

Robin's look of determination fought with sadness. He did love her and irrationally wanted to go in to that pit after her. But he knew what he was doing. Robin declared, "It's Beast Boy's turn."

"I was wondering when you were gonna call him off that so-called special assignment.", Cyborg told him.

"This is the special assignment.", Robin explained. "Once I found out Jinx' intentions were to signifigantly boost her powers, I sought to pre-emptively weaken her in case this happenned instead of Raven convincing her not to do this. I couldn't count on any poison or microbe that had an effect on her getting past Gizmo's screenings. Plus, those wouldn't have had any tactical control."

"So I had Beast Boy mimic a bacteria, like the time he worked with Gizmo to repair you. Since anthrax/"

"You had Beast Boy become a lethal bioweapon!", Cyborg exclaimed.

"No.", Robin continued. "Anthrax is a bacteria so by its presence it's not lethal. Upon feeding, it excretes a lethal poison though. That's what causes the black bruise looking poisoned patch when it enters through the skin. It then settles in the lungs and excretes poison until it kills the victim."

"Since Beast Boy can turn into a knat and other small insects, he could enter Jinx' lungs without waiting for a cut. That's why he's been appearing in her presence from seemingly no where. And that's why Jinx has been acting like she's shaking off a flu that just won't shake: it only looks like the flu because of the lack of a black spot on her skin. If Beast Boy did his job right, Gizmo would never have figured out to treat Jinx for Beast Boy's presence. Which would have been irrelevant since Beast Boy could take on the form of any other microbial creature the instant a species specific threatment appeared or Gizmo tried to build something to diagnose her."

"I'm sending the signal to a nano-communicator I engineered for him to take Jinx down.", Robin declared.

In Hell-

The monsters nearly clapped in glee when they saw Jinx struggling. She continued hacking up to no avail. Then she encased a hand in her telltale pink glow. Stabbing herself with that glow, her repiratory system's normalacy took a vacation.

She started coughing up more of the black gooze she'd been sniffling at for days. Lots more.

One of the ravens tried to sink its shadow claws into her back, but her aura was strong enough to rip the barely existing discipline holding it together to shreds. Jinx continued to retch miserably, but cast a hex bolt at another construct-mostly as a warning to the others.

Then she couldn't breathe. Something more than gunk was stuck in her throat. She reached in with glow encased fingers and tugged on whatever wasn't her teeth and tongue. It hurt. Her throat. Her nails. Her lungs working overtime to force this invasion out.

When she got it out she glared at the green earthworm. Which rapidly shifted into a green rabbit, followed by a green greyhound, followed by a green Teen Titan. Beastboy sat on the ground with his eyes spinning in spirals as he tried to shake off being choked in turn by Jinx' throat.

The black ooze pouring out of her slowed to a drip. When Jinx focussed her eyes on it, she crashed into a one of the most terrifying flashbacks she ever had.

Flashback to Hive Orientation-

"And this is what the inside of anthrax victim looks like after they're dead.", the Headmistress told a very young Jinx.

In Hell-

"You...", Jinx tried to speak. Instead she just cough and spit some more. But she tried mightily. "You...little bitch. You wanna...huh, huh...violate my body." The girl took another deep breath followed by hocking a black loogie that splashed against the cavern floor. "And you huh...huh...don't even got the guts...huh to rape me like a real man.", she said with more strength. "You wanna force yourself in me? Huh...huh...Then kill me from the inside out?"

"Fine."

With that Jinx child around the neck and lifted him up with one hand. The small Titan that was just regaining his senses clawed at the hand. "Guess what your heart beating at random intervals is called.", she commanded.

Jinx drove the nails of the otherhand into her soon to be victim's chest. "You're only supposed to have a heart beat of 45-60 beats per second at rest if you're human. Maybe 120 in a full on fight if you can take it. Let's see a lightweight like you take palpatations of 300 or so. Maybe even more. After all, the results are going to be improbable.", she told him.

With that a pink crackle flowed from her aura and into Beast Boy. He visibly winced. His chest muscles contracted sporadically. His hands stopped clawing at his neck and clutched in pain over his heart.

Jinx cast him away like a coin in a wishing well. She watched with a glint of...justice in her eye as Beast Boy writhed in front of her. The monsters savored him by licking him and his pain, his remorse, and his audacity. The teeth would start soon as he had no aura of improbability to tear into the constructs.

As the teams unofficial mascot, he always had good luck.
