Chapter 10
Play Wit Fire
I slam on the breaks. My body? Yeah it's tired, but I have to save those people. I jump off the bike and run to the police tape. The officers are ordering for the people to stay back, I roll my eyes and slip under the tape. The officer grabs me and lifts me over the tape on the other side.
'he just... hey! wait a sec!' I try around and brust of fire comes from the building. I sigh and shuffle back to the street, I sit on the crib and look at my hands. 'okay god. tell me how to get in there and save those people?' No answer, I lay back and listen to the screams off the people. 'think. think.' I could smell cury and rare spices. 'spain cooking... yum...'
I feel my hand being pulled away, I trun to look back. Then I look to the person, Luke pulled me along with small cuts along his face. I hug him tight, he pulls away and takes me over to the car. He sits me down and goes back to help a young women. 'okay, jinx. you're closer, figure out away to get past the police.' I look around and see a young girl and an older women. They were yelling at the police, begging them to find their sister and daughter. I grin, 'her way out, my way in. i just gotta be careful of the phoniex finding me.'
I stand but Luke grabs my arm and sits me back down. ' 'kay, boy that wants to protect me too much. makes sense...'
"Luke! I have-" He walks away, I shulffe in my seat and watch the building burn even more. 'agrh! people in nyc!' I look back to the lady, she screams out where the girl is and what her name is. 'abla? okay, just run to the building!'
I close my eye and think of what I look like. A look time ago, Elliot told me I could change my appearance of the Midnight Lynx. I remembered to think of a superhero, the frist one that came to my head was Raven from Teen Titans. I roll my eyes, 'great. but it's better then superwomen.'
I stand and begin to walk, Luke grabs me again. I starts to pull me back, I pull away and smile. "This time, Luke." I lean forward and kiss his cheek. "It's my trun to save people and remember I was your apple of your eye..." He make a face, as I run up to the firey building.
"Jinx!" I hear Luke and Lucky yell from behind me. I open the firey building's door, and burn my hand. 'oww!' I bend down and hold them close to my body. "Damn it! Jinx that was smart!" Another police officer grabs me and pulls me back. I roll my eyes and kick him in his goods, I dodged every police person who jumped at me. I take a deep breath and launch my body threw the glass of the doors.
I slid into the elevator and begin to cough. I reach in my pocket and pull out my powerpented. "Power up!" I yell as a fire beam fell at the front doors. I stand and look down. I had a black cape on and a bathing suit type of clothes on, I had a belt around my hips it was black and sliver. I had boots like Renee's and glove's like Corina. The cape had a hood, I flipped it over my head and ran down the firey hallway.
A beam came down infront of me, I jumped back and slip on the carpet. Another beam falls on my leg, I let out a shout and pull out from under it. I run back the other way and find a stair case, I slam the cement door behind me and breathe in and out. 'fuck, fuck... man that was too much...' I wobbled when I stood and ran up the stairs. 'way too much smoke. it has to be phoniex's doing. duh! she came on the tv and basiclly treatened me...'
Tina was on the 6th floor, I rip the cement door open and enter a dark hallway. I start yelling Abla's name over and over. When I came to a door painted green -it seemed green- a little voice yelled for help. I kick the door down with my foot and enter.
Tina sat on the couch with her bunny, I run over and bend down to her level. "Are you okay?" Tine nods and smiles at me. "Gracias gato del gatito." I smile at Abla and look around the house. "I'm in a spanish house right?" Abla looks at me and smiles, she jumps up and nods.
"©espaЯol? ║SМ! ©SМ, dСnde es mi abuela y hermana?" I look at her, then behind down. "Dow you know how to speak english?" She shakes her head and looks down to her bunny. I sigh and run into another room, smoke was coming out of the vents. I back away, 'pision, phoniex is putting lithuim in the vents! fuck! abla!'
"Um, Abla! I was think, let's get out of here." I ran back and stop Dren was holding Abla in his arms. He kisses her cheek and smiles at me. She looks at with tears in her eyes. I pull out my swords and point them at Dren. 'hold it. i have swords?'
"Put the girl down!" Dren smiles and hugges Abla tighter. "Isn't she cute? So cute!" She pulls away and points behind me.
"║Phoniex! ║Gato del gatito! ║Ayuda Phoniex! ║El gato del gatito me ahorra! ║PАjaro rojo, malo!!!!" '║phoniex!, fuck!' I turn and a red boot goes into my face. Abla runs to me, and holds me tight.
"║Excepto mМ gato de la medianoche! ║Mal phoneix! ║No dejarlos matarme!" 'yeah, i understood none of that!' I grab Abla and look towards the door, smoke was coming through. I run to the door as a chain-knife cuts my face.
"Here Kitty, Kitty." I hiss and run out of the room. The stairs were cold and damp. Abla screamed something I couldn't understand until it hit me. I rolled down the stairs and looked up to Dren and Phoniex. 'fuck...' I rip the cement door open and run into a fire blazed floor. My arms and legs got burned, and Abla got burned too. I ran down the hallway, and slammed my body into another door.
"Ahh! Fuck, fuck!" I fall again, when I tried to get up. I look to my leg, it had a big piece of wood in it. 'this is why i'm jinx!' I pull myself along the rug to the window. Abla comes and sits beside me, she lays her head down and closes her eyes. I knew the heat was getting to me beside I swear I saw my mom and dad walk past the door.
"Get up January. We believe in you. We love you." My dad smiled when my mom said those words. My mind played a story for me.
"Daddy, Daddy! Come find me!" A little girl with strawberry blonde hair ran behind a tree. A tall man ran past the tree yelling her name, she began to back up when she slid down the hill and hit her head off of another tree. Hours go by and the girl wakes up she starts to cry, then a couple dark figures come out of the trees and help the girl up. "Mama! We found a girl!" The lady helped the little girl up and took her to a family. The dad hugged her tight, and tinlted her chin to his.
"January. We thought you were kidnapped."
The world of the fire came back to me, my dad walked past the door with my mom. Both stood hand in hand, she held all the flowers I ever given them.
"Three months and I'm still sober," I looked up. "Picked all my weeds and kept the flowers..."
"Medianoche, creo en ti. Muramos." I look down to Abla, her eyes are closed she was bearly breathing. I grab hold of the couch and pull myself up, the couch burned my hand even more. I looked out the window and saw a bunch of people looking worried. I pick up Abla, and swallow. 'dear god, let us fall on grass or bethany. or may my knight and shinning armor catch me, eihters fine really...'
"Kitty, Kitty. Where are you?" I trun and see Phoniex standing, with her chain in her hand. She aims and Dren walks in. "Noche del camisСn, gato de la medianoche." I roll my eyes and get ready to jump out the window, glass and metal cut and sink into my body.
I roll on the cement and close my eyes, the pain was unbearable. A man runs up to me and pulls Abla away from me, I stand but fall again. I hear the grandmother yelling at Abla.
"║Abla! ║Mi bebИ! ║Eres aceptable! ©QuiИn es esa muchacha?" Abla hugs her grandmother and sister. "║Ella es gato de la medianoche! ║Ella me ahorrС del Phoniex!" Everyone that speaked spanish gasped and looked at me as I began to stand. All the other people asked people that spoke both English and Spanish to tranlate.
"It's the Midnight Cat!" Someone yelled, I look around the crowd and see Luke and Lucky running towards me. Luke grabs my shoulders and holds them tight. He had a bunch of tears in his eyes, he looked worried about me. "Have you seen a girl with one red eye and a hazel eye in there! Is she okay? Which floor is she on? I have to save her! I love her soo much!" I smile and hug him.
"She's okay. Just alittle hurt." He ran back over to Lucky, and told her. Lucky had tears in her eyes. I smile and see Abla run back to me. She gave me a tight hug as I bent down.
"Gracias gato de la medianoche. ║Eres mi mejor amigo y hИroe estupendo del favotire! ║Te amo!" The sister pulls Abla away and hugs her tight. "She says: Thank you Midnight Cat. You are my best friend and favotire super hero! I love you!" I smile and look to the grandmother running to me.
"La signora giovane dell'OH li ringrazia per aumentare la vostra vita per il mio grandbaby! Siete la figlia che non ho avuto mai! Grazie, grazie! Il mio amore del dio e benedite la vostra famiglia intera! Grazie ancora!" She hugs me and starts crying. I look to the sister, she smiles at me.
"Italian. She say: Oh young lady thank you for rising your life for my grandbaby! You are the daughter I never had! Thank you, Thank you! My God love you and bless your whole family! Thank you again!" I smile at her as they walk away.
"Oh Midnight Kitty?" I turn and a chain wraps around my body, the knife at the end stabbed right into my leg. I let out a painful scream as everybody scerams for someone to help me. I look down and see that my vision is going. 'i'm losing blood, and i have lithium in my lungs... this isn't good...'
Phoniex pulls hard on the chain, as I fall to the ground. Everything began to blur as she came down to my level. My blonde hair went back to black, and everyone gasped.
"Jinx!" I hear Luke yell in the crowd, I give off a moan as the Phoniex pulls off her second mask. I look at her dumb founded, I hear Lucky and Luke stop.
"Young Lady! If you hurt Jinx-" I look at Dren as he throws a kinfe into Lucky's chest. She falls back as Luke grabs a wood pole and gets ready to hit the Phoniex.
"Don't do it Luke!" I shouted, as Phoniex smiled at me. "I saw you kiss him. This'll hurt you more then it hurts me or him!" Blood falls on my face as Luke falls to the ground too, I sit up and cry out his name. I can't think about Lindsay back at the clinic seeing this. 'the clinic! oh my god! what are they gonna say?' The Phoniex truns my head too her's.
Dren jumps infront of all the poeple. "I claim this city in honuor of Deep Blue!" I look right at the Phoneix, people start to run and scream.
"Oh Jinx or the Midnight Cat. I don't like the sound of that, Midnight Jinx, you're life ends tonight at midnight." I swallow as the Phoneix shocks me with her chain. I look up to her, as she puts the mask back on. I watched my blond hair fall infront of my face. "Can you play wit fire?"
"Fuck you Bethany." I moan as my vision goes.
