this Iz Ellie, another chapter to this nerve wrecking story is up! from the title of the chapter, you should have guessed that you're probably going to figure some things out (it's not like it's a huge mystery anyway)


"Anytime Jinx," the hero tells her.

Jinx smiles evilly at him, anytime did you say? She questions in her mind.

"Now don't you go getting any ideas!" Kid Flash says, guessing her thoughts.

"Suuure" she responds sarcastically.

"I-" Flash is cut off by his communicator of which has started to sing its catchy tune, "aw, what now?" He asks randomly and flips the device open.

"I thought I was on break?" he tells the person on the other line, already knowing who is calling him.

"Don't whine you big baby! There's other people here." A male voice tells him.

"Fine Speedy, I'll try to polite."

"Yeah yeah," Speedy mutters, "do you even want to know why I called?" he asks him, losing patience.

"Yes I do!" Kid Flash begs, "what do you find out?" he asks in a more mannerly tone.

"Well, turns out that in the end, Cyborg only underestimated her power" Speedy says while indicating that he was talking about Jinx.

"Underestimate?" Flash glances up at Jinx who is now sitting forward, listening intently. She shrugs at him.

Kid Flash turns his attention back to the communicator, "what exactly is the result of this 'underestimation'?"

"She broke it's outer protection field, which, on it's own, is an accomplishment."

Jinx grins lightly.

"She did more then that didn't she?" Flash asks, without taking notice of Jinx's grin.

"Well, we think Jinx sent the electrons within the metal into mode loco." Speedy informs Kid Flash.

"Electrons? Is that bad?" Flash asks for himself and Jinx's behalf, neither of them understand what it means.

"I think it is because the metal that Cyborg used for the construction of this thing hasn't been tested for this kind of force."

"Yuck, I never had the patience for science Speedy."

"You never had the patience for anything Kid."

Kid Flash frowns and moves on, "anyway, that seems a bit smaller then I expected judging on the power of that ray."

"Wait till you here this though," Speedy starts, he was on the verge of something, "By all means, that vault should have been blown to pieces! But, through my, yes my,intensive scanning, I found that her attack just didn't reach the vault." Speedy himself even seems to be confused by this.

"Huh? Are you serious?" Kid Flash glances up at Jinx for the second time, she was shocked already by the information.

I could have done it? But, But why didn't I? Why? She asks herself.

"what do you mean by 'didn't reach the vault' Speedy?" Flash asks him.

"From what I could tell, it was as if just the smallest centimetre before the ray hit the vault, it just lost all momentum and just disappeared, all the appearance of a strong attack that just went wrong."

"That's amazing." Kid Flash murmurs.

"Sorry Kid Flash but I have to go now, but I get the feeling that the person with you has more information then the people with me." Speedy says, making an obvious indication towards Jinx.

"Well that depends if I want to know."

"Yeah yeah, later Kid."

"Later arrow head." Flash smiles and quickly switches off from his communicator before Speedy to make a response.

Jinx watches Kid Flash think, what will he do now? She thinks herself.

Flash notices her looking at him and rises his bright blue eyes and watches her in return.

Several moments pass by unnoticed until Jinx speaks up.

"What was that vault made out of?"

"i don't know to be honest but i do know that Cyborg designed it to reflect any villains power that they have fought before and more, somewhere within that metal there is a part completely dedicated to combat your power."

"Wow, that's one solid piece of metal!" she exclaims.

Another silence dulls on but once again broken by Jinx's curiosity.

"Flash? I don't get what's going on."

"What do mean Jinx?" he smiles at her.

"Well, firstly, why didn't my attack work and secondly, why are you looking after me? I'm a villain so it just doesn't make sense." Jinx says looking at Kid Flash straight in the eye.

He just looks down and then back up to Jinx, "I don't believe that the failure in your attack was caused by that vault's high tech stuff, I think it's something deeper then that, right, Jinx?" he guesses that Jinx is thinking this too.

"Deeper huh?" she says with a small grin, trying to cover up her confused mind.

"Don't play with me Jinx, I've got a lot on my mind right now." he smiles at her, he too was trying to cover up his confused mind.

"alright," Jinx drops her grin and takes a breath, "continue." she asks him.

"okay. Your second question then," Kid Flash moves on, "to me, you just don't register as a villain. You telling me that you are makes me just want to laugh out loud and tell you that your just messing around with me!"

Jinx looks at him in wonder, does he really believe this?

"Jinx, even though your on the bad side now, that doesn't mean forever." he tells her.

"You told me when we first met that your bad luck and it's just not an option. It is an option Jinx and you know it."

Jinx stares at him in amazement, speechless.

"Waybe I shouldn't have brought that up, your meant to be in recovery." kid Flash gets up to leave, "you'll get your strength back in no time," he adds before rushing out of the room in super speed.


"Uhh… is this thing working right?" A cute little British voice speaks on the 'T' tower intercom, "um, Flash? I need to talk to you, and uhh, over and out I guess." Argents turns of the speaker.

Once hearing this, Kid Flash runs over to the main room before Argent could put the microphone down.

"Oh goodie, it worked" she says casually at him.

"Yeah, congrats on your success." he comments to her.

"Hey! I tried ok!" she frowns at him. "As I said on that godforsaken thing, we need to talk."

"Oh your not breaking up with me are you?" he says jokingly at her because of her saying the classic break-up line.

"Oh would you shut up and listen!" Argent yells at him angrily, she does not have much patience for these things, "I want to know what exactly is the deal with us taking care of her!" Argent points at the door, indicating she is indeed talking about Jinx.

"I'm compassionate Argent, that's why." he tells her.

"Really? compassionate? that's the reason why? Compassion?" Argent says, not believing his words, "Kid Flash, I think we all know that its not just compassion."


Jinx sat up in her bed, head on her knees, thinking.

He has hope for me, cares more about me then anyone ever has, he even trusts me.

She frowns.

Why? Life just isn't as simple as he makes it out to be.

She pulls at her hair with frustration.

I… I need.. I need to get out of here. Now!

Jinx looks around frantically and notices a big cabinet blocking a part of a wall. She jumps out of the bed and tries to push it away from the wall.

Aha! A window!

Once got the cabinet far away from the wall she steeped in front of it and pulls up the blind blocking the glass and looks out.

She could see the water surrounding the tower and beyond that Jump city, she presses her finger against the glass, that's where I need to go to get to the Hive Five Hideout, she was pointing at a hill beyond the cities huge buildings.

I've overstayed my welcome for too long, I need to get back.

Jinx pushes the window open and gets up onto it's ledge.

Thank god they didn't change my clothes for me, Jinx thinks as she see that her black and purple dress hadn't been removed, that would have been a very bad idea.

She looks down to the ground, she wasn't that high up, a good few feet but her gymnastic training can handle it.

She pushed herself away from the window and jumped.

The ground was further then she had originally thought, oh no! I'm going to break my neck! Jinx couldn't think of a solution so she just closed her eyes and hoped for the best.

Just seconds before impact, a flash of red and yellow emerged from the side of the tower just in time to catch the falling Jinx.

Jinx felt strong arms grab he and they held her close, as if in a hug, she gasps and opens her eyes.

"Kid Flash!" she yelps in surprise, trying to hold back tears. She tries to break free from his old but he's too strong for her. She gives up.

"Jinx, you're running away." he whispers into her ear.

"I have too, Kid" she whispers back.

They stood still for what could have been forever.

Then, all of a sudden, Kid Flash dashes off in super speed, moving so fast, it took Jinx a moment to understand what had just happened.

Before Flash ran away, she could swear he heard him say 'I won't stop you Jinx.'

Then the penny dropped, or rather, the tear dropped.
