Paris


"Woah!" Jinx said and tried not to fall. The corridor was shaking. Some stones crumbled from the ceiling. Only a very large explosion could have caused something like that. After all the Brotherhood's base was build out of solid stone. Eventually the corridor stabilized again. She sighed and wiped some dirt off her clothes.

"Seems like they started without us" the girl said and started walking again or rather slowly running.

"We are a bit late" Kid Flash answered slightly smiling. She narrowed her eyes.

"Don't look at me like that! That's not my fault! Just because I'm not as fast as you doesn't mean I'm slow!" she answered.

"Actually you are a bit slow."

"Excuse me! Without me you wouldn't even know where this base is!" she replied angry. Before he could say something in return another explosion caused the ground to shake. Now they were close enough to actually hear the explosion. "Seriously" Jinx said after everything had stabilized again "I hope that means that we are winning."

"There's only one way to find out" the hero answered. Both of them were standing in a corridor. A few meters ahead of them there was a door. It had been broken open. The fighting sound came from there.

"I guess you're right."

"Ready?" he asked. She raised her eyebrows and answered "Is this a serious question?"

"I'll take that as a yes" he smiled "Be careful!"

"Unlike you I'm always careful. You are the one I'm worried about." And even though she had said that just to tease him, there was a hint of real concern in her voice.

"You are worried about me? That's sweet!"

"Just go" she replied, while rolling her eyes. Within a heartbeat he was gone. "It's Showtime" she thought. Then she walked through the door.

"Wow!" was the only thought that came through her head, when Jinx saw what was going on. She had never seen so many villains and heroes in one place. The girl recognized most of the villains. However, she knew only a few of the Titans, but at least she could tell who was on the good side and who wasn't.

Then Jinx saw to hery right Kid Flash and most of the Hive Five. Only See-More was missing. And next to them was Cyborg ready to knock out a villain she didn't recognize. Jinx couldn't prevent herself from smiling. She went to them. The girl could hear how Kid Flash said to Cyborg "Sorry, I'm late! I had to pick up a friend." He looked at her smiling and Jinx smiled right back at him.

Billy, Kyd Wykkyd and Mammoth looked at her shocked and furious at the same time. But honestly their expressions nearly made Jinx laugh. Gizmo yelled furious "You are with HIM, traitor?" "Probably have some catching up to do" Kid Flash said to her and was gone a second later. Jinx looked at her former friends and then she raised my shoulders and said "Nothing personal." She snapped her fingers and watched how the four were hit by one of her shockwaves. "That probably hurt a bit" she thought, but her smile didn't disappear.

Next to her Cyborg said surprised "Now that was unexpected." The pink haired girl heard how he knocked out the villain, who looked like the biggest geek ever. Right in the moment when he was about to ask here the question she would have to answer a few more times in the future she raised her hand and said "Just don't. It's a very long story and right now we're a bit busy, aren't we?" For a second Cyborg looked at her confused, then he just answered "Can't wait to hear that story." She rolled her eyes. After that Jinx took a deep breath and joined the battle.



"Oops! Did I do that?" Jinx said with the sweetest voice to Madame Rouge, who was stuck in the ground, because of her powers. It was obvious that if she had the chance she would kill her right now. And the fact that she couldn't made Jinx's smile even brighter. The two heroes to her left (one looked like a human on fire, the other one like a bull) took care of her. They grabbed her by her shoulders and stretched her. She snapped her fingers and watched how she was flying through the air. Madame Rouge crashed onto some machine and then hit the ground. Smiling Jinx watched how she was turned into an ice sculpture.

"Good job" the burning hero said to her. "Thanks! You too" she answered a bit unsure. The girl wasn't used that a hero beside Kid Flash talked to her in a friendly manner. "I had some unfinished business with her" she added. "Seems like we all had. She captured me and Wildebeest" he answered and pointed at the tall bull-like hero "Did she capture you or one of your friends?" The pink haired girl shook her head. "No, she didn't, but…she hurt…someone I like." "At least that wasn't a lie" she thought.

"Hey, what's your name? You are new in the team, aren't you? I'm Hot Spot by the way." "My name is…Jinx. I am new" she said truthfully. "Okay, Jinx. See you later" Hot Spot responded and disappeared between the fighting villains and heroes. Wildebeest looked at her briefly and then did the same thing as Hot Spot. She wasn't sure, but his expression had seemed friendly.

"JINX?" The girl heard a familiar voice behind her asking. She sighed. Then without further hesitation Jinx turned around and sent a shockwave into his direction. See-More was somehow able to dodge her attack.

"What are you doing?" he asked. She could hear disappointment and shock in his voice.

"I'm fighting. Can't you see that?" she answered.

"And why are you attacking me?" he asked in utter disbelief.

"Because See-More …I'm here to stop the Brotherhood of Evil and well, that includes stopping you" the girl responded.

He looked devastated.

"It has got nothing to do with you personally, but I'm happier being a heroine than a villain" Jinx explained and to her surprise she didn't feel guilty saying that. It was just true. She was happier now. She had even started regretting everything she had done as a villain and it might sounded harsh, but fighting against her former friends wasn't exactly…hard.

"You're a traitor!" he said angry. Jinx only smiled faintly. "Yes, I am. At least for you guys" she answered. Her shockwave hit him this time and threw him against a nearby villain. It was Cardiac. This floating heart was probably one of the weirdest villains in the world. She had never liked him…it.

Jinx was about to finish them both off when she heard a mechanical sound. The former villainess turned around and saw how a new army of giant robots started to attack. She groaned frustrated. "Can't the Brotherhood just admit their defeat?" she said to herself, before her eyes started glowing.
