Part 18: Dating Tips…
Jinx purred. The bandages on her wrist had been removed and the scars were practically gone (Shadowcobra helped heal her). She was completely contented with lying on the couch, or more specifically, on Draco. He was lying on the couch too, with his hands behind his head, resting. Jinx was lying on top of him with a happy smile on her face as she purred.
"I have a great idea!" Jinx perked up.
"What?' Draco questioned.
She kissed him quickly on the lips, "Let's go on a date!"
Draco scratched his head nervously, "A date?"
"Just you and me! Tonight!" She snuggled up against him.
"A date?"
Draco walked into the training room. "Um…Pluto? Shadow?" he began asking nervously. Both Pluto and Shadowcobra were sparing. They stopped when they noticed Draco.
"What's up, Draco?' asked Pluto.
"What's the matter with you?" asked Shadowcobra.
"I…I need some advice," he gulped, "Dating advice."
Pluto grinned and perked up, "And who's the lucky girl?"
"Jinx…" Draco blushed.
"Wow…Our little dragon has finally grown up," he wiped an imaginary tear away from his eye. Shadowcobra rolled his eyes.
"Oh boy," Shadowcobra groaned.
Pluto then walked up to Draco and smiled, slinging his arm over his shoulders. "Listen to me kid and you won't go wrong," said Pluto.
"Since when?" Shadowcobra quipped.
Pluto glared before going back to Draco.
"You have to be faithful," began Pluto.
"Hah!" laughed Shadowcobra.
Pluto's left eye twitched. He continued, "Look at me. I'm faithful"
"Yeah right!" Shadowcobra mumbled.
"Okay mister! I've had it up to here with you!" Pluto turned angrily at Shadowcobra
"What's this about you being faithful? You are the last person Draco has to know from about faithfulness," Shadowcobra folded his arms.
"What's that supposed to mean?" demanded Pluto.
"What was her name again? Fifi? Mimi? No wait, I think it was Lili," mocked Shadowcobra. "Wait a minute, it was all three!"
"Okay, I'm a little popular," Pluto stated, "Sue me."
"I would but I don't think I could get much out of you," Shadowcobra countered, smirking.
"That's really mature from a guy who had only one relationship in his whole life!"
"At least I had one!" Shadowcobra yelled back, "I can't imagine how many girls you've two-timed! No, I think it should be three-timed."
"That only happened once, a long time ago, and you know it!"
"It was last week!"
"Um…Guys?" Draco tried to get their attention.
"Like you can do any better!" Pluto challenged. "If Draco had dating tips from me, the girls would be eating out of his hands!"
"So says the flirt!" Shadowcobra threw his arms up, "Long live the Flirt! Hail the Flirt!"
"That's it! It's go time!"
"Bring it on mutt!"
Both Knights started fighting.
"MONGREL!" Shadowcobra yelled.
"SLIMEBALL!" Pluto shot back.
"LIKE YOU TO TALK!"
"HAVE A KNUCKLE SANDWICH POISON MOUTH!"
"Why me, Kami?" Draco groaned, "Do you hate me? Please, give me a sign."
"So you need help with Jinx, huh?" asked Cyborg.
"Yep," answered Draco.
"Hand me that wrench," Cyborg pointed.
"Okay," Draco took the wrench and gave it to Cyborg.
They were both in the Tower garage. Cyborg was fixing up his baby, the T-Car.
"So…any advice? The last place I went to ended up in a brawl," Draco asked.
"Shadow and Plutes, right? Do they always fight for no reason?"
"All the time. I guess they just fight about anything that gives them a reason. Now, how about that advice?"
"I never thought you'd go out with Jinx. When we first dated-"
"Wait!" Draco interrupted, "You dated Jinx?"
"Yeah. I was going undercover in the HIVE. Jinx had this crush on me and…" he saw Draco glaring at him. "Um…uh oh."
"You were that guy, weren't you?" Draco growled, "You were that lying heartbreaking…".
Cyborg backed away slowly from the angry Dragon Knight. He laughed nervously, "So…heh heh… Jinx told you about that?"
"Oh yeah…" Draco growled, eyes narrowed, his eyes turning red and a fireball in hand.
"For the record…" Cyborg gulped, "I was going undercover."
"Run," Draco warned
"Okay!" Cyborg ran as fast as he can out of the garage, screaming like a girl.
"Checkmate," Raven stated. She was playing a game of chess with Jinx.
"Rematch," Jinx said angrily.
That was when Cyborg ran right between the two, sending the table and chess pieces flying.
"HEEEELLLLLPPPPP!" Cyborg screamed, running away from an enraged Draco.
"COME BACK HERE SO I CAN BARBEQUE YOU, YA OVERGROWN TOASTER OVEN!" Draco roared as he
chased after Cyborg, running between the two girls.
Raven looked at Jinx, "You told Draco, huh?"
Jinx grinned sheepishly, "Well, we got talking and it just came up. I didn't mention names though."
"Which would explain why Draco decided to kill Cyborg now."
"OW! THAT'S HOT!" Cyborg shouted.
"GOOD!" Draco yelled.
"Shouldn't we help them?" Jinx asked.
"YOU WERE ALREADY DATING SOMEONE ELSE?"
"I WAS UNDERCOVER!"
"NO EXCUSES MISTER! DIE!"
"AAAAAHHHH!"
BOOM!
Raven sighed, rearranging the table, chess board and chess pieces with her powers "Your move."
Jinx smiled, "Okay."
"You want to date Jinx?' Robin asked as he was working on his laptop, "Are you sure that's a good idea?"
Draco nodded, "I think it is. Just the two of us, alone, no interruptions." He sighed, "So, any advice fearless leader?"
Robin began thinking. He wasn't Batman, that was sure. His old mentor was always against dating teammates. But when it came to dating villains and civilians… "Go for it," was all Robin said.
"Say what?"
"Go for it!" Robin whirled around and gave Draco a narrowed eye stare. "She makes you happy, right? You like her and she likes you, right? I say go for it!"
Draco smiled, "Wow…thanks, Rob-"
"So what if she's a teammate? So what? It's my life and I get to do with it whatever I please! He's not the boss of me!"
"Robin…you're scaring me…"
"Just because he has to be all dark and dismal and has problems with commitment doesn't mean I can't have a life. Well excuseeee me!"
"I'm leaving now," Draco walked out the door, "Man, Robin's got some issues."
"You're the only person I can go to now for advice."
"Wow, I'm honored kid."
"Don't let it go to your head, Yaminekoryu. Out of everyone here, you're the only sane one."
"As opposed to you who is talking to himself."
Draco groaned. Right now he was talking to Yaminekoryu, the demon that lived within him. Said demon was in spectral form in front of him. Strangely, Raven and Shadowcobra never picked him up on their mystic "radars".
"Listen…" Draco rubbed his temples, "I'm desperate, okay. Just tell me what I need to do."
"Get her drunk or sedated so you can have your way with her!" Yaminekoryu answered without missing a beat.
"WHAT?"
"That's how I always got a date!"
"That's how you rape people!"
"Fine! Have it your way! I'm leaving!" Yaminekoryu faded away.
Draco frowned, "Looks like I have to do this my way…as usual," he groaned.
Draco walked up to Jinx's room and pulled the collar of his suit. He was a bit uncomfortable about the whole thing. However, there was no way out of it.
"Okay…breathe…breathe…" he chanted to himself. "I can do this…I can do this."
He knocked on the door and it slid open to reveal Jinx.
I can's do this…He inwardly groaned.
"Jinx…" he began.
"Yes?" she smiled sweetly at him.
"About…(gulps) about that da…" He was suddenly interrupted by a familiar ringing in his ears. He moaned, "Oh…hell no."
"Draco! Monsters! Mirror Dimension!" Pluto yelled as he ran past Draco with Shadowcobra.
"I know!" Draco ran after them, leaving Jinx.
