Okay thanks to everyone who reviewed. Here's the next chapter!

Wally rushed into the emergency room at Unique Hospital. Gavin sped home and said breathlessly to his dad that something weird had happened at school. Gavin couldn't fully explain what went on but he did say that he thought Thalia was being taken to the hospital along with the other Titans. Wally didn't have to question which hospital; there was only one that specialized in well, gifted human beings…and aliens. So here he was trying to figure out what he would tell the nurses to convince them to let him see his daughter when he heard an agitated yell.

"What do you mean you don't know where she is!?"

"Ma'am keep your voice down please. There are patients here who need quiet."

"Look you, I get a phone call in the middle of the night saying my kid's at the hospital and now you're trying to tell me that you don't know where she is!? What kind of a hospital does that?" Wally knew that angry voice anywhere, most of the time that tone had been directed at him. Just as he had predicted, a pink-haired very angry woman dressed in a black pea-coat over her pajamas was Jinx.

"Ma'am I'm truly sorry that I can't help you, I can try to page Dr. Lebeau and see if she can help you. She's with a patient at the moment but I'm pretty sure she was assigned to some of the patients who were at the high-school attack this evening." The brown-haired doctor said very calmly, and with a smile on his face.

This did not satisfy Jinx, not at all. The woman leaned over and was about to grab the man's throat when Wally decided it was time to step in. "Whoa, Jinx settle down." Jinx turned to look at the person who had stopped her. A range of emotions passed through her pink eyes in a few brief seconds: anger to confusion, to something that looked like relief-that was the shortest one- and back to anger when the met Wally's.

Wally didn't say anything to her but he gave her a look that said 'let me handle it' and turned to the doctor and said, "I'm sorry, she's just scared. If you could please let us know if anyone knows anything about our daughter."

The doctor laughed, "Don't worry it happens all the time. Dr. Lebeau should be out in a jiffy. I'll have her talk to you when she's done. It's been a busy night for her."

"Thank you," Wally responded. He then turned to lead Jinx to the waiting area. It was mostly empty except for a dark haired boy who was aimlessly flipping through a magazine.

"What are you doing here," she asked quietly with no sign of anger in her voice, as they sat down.

"Gavin told me something went on at school and that Thalia might have gotten hurt. I figured I wouldn't be getting a phone call so I ran over here."

"So she told you huh? Figures I guess." Jinx said while examining her nails, a nervous habit. She slouched down in the plastic chair.

"Yeah she did. It wasn't her job to tell me though," Wally answered. Jinx was silent for that part. She didn't know how to answer, of course it wasn't Thalia's job to tell him but would she ever admit that? Of course not. So instead she just looked at him and said, "I'm sorry."

Wally's eyes were not cold, they were understanding. He saw in Jinx's eyes something very rare: fear and vulnerability. Wally never being able to resist her pulled her in so that her head was resting on his shoulder, and for some reason she didn't resist him.

"She's going to be alright. She's had you for a mom, of course she's going to be alright," Wally said.

"But what if she's not okay? She's all I've got Wally," Jinx whispered. That just about broke the speedster's heart.

But before he could say anything, the black haired boy got up and walked over to them, "Um excuse me, are you Thalia Taylor's parents?" The two nodded. "Well I know what room she's in and I know that if you wait for Dr. Lebeau you're going to be here awhile. She's working on some big thing. I could take you to her if your want."

Jinx jumped up from her seat, "Heck yes! Show us the way."

The young man eyed Wally suspiciously, "Thalia told me she didn't know her dad."

"He's her father kid. Now where's my daughter," Jinx demanded her temper rising. Then a thought occurred to her, "How do you know Thalia anyway?"

The boy smiled and responded, "I'm a friend of hers, my name's Jude." He turned and walked off down the hallway. Jinx looked to Wally who shrugged and started to follow Jude.

He stopped at a room near the end of the hallway that occupied two girls. One girl was blonde and the other one had black hair from what they could see underneath the bandages.

Thalia was curled in a ball on her bed with her eyes closed. Jinx and Wally both assumed the worst and it was written all over their faces. Jude saw this and said immediately, "Don't worry she's just sleeping, she's had a rough night." Jude gazed at the sleeping girl with what Jinx would later describe as a "weird look." It caused her to raise her own suspicions.

'Jude. Why does that name sound familiar?' But she was only bothered by these thoughts for a few seconds before returning her attention to her daughter. Jinx nodded at the boy, "Thank you." She and Wally walked in and sat in the two chairs next to their daughter's bed. Jinx brushed away a few stray stands of hair that hung in her daughter's face. Thalia stirred a bit but she didn't wake.

"She told me you say I look like her. I disagree," Wally whispered.

"Oh yeah and why's that?" Jinx whispered back but didn't take her eyes off of Thalia.

Wally stared intently at the older witch when he spoke, "'Cause she's just as beautiful as you are."

Jinx stiffened, still not returning his gaze, "Wally, don't say stuff like that. I don't want to have to wreck your wife's car again."

He didn't laugh, "She's not my wife anymore." That sentence made Jinx look at him, straight in his deep blue eyes, the eyes that convinced her to become a hero.

Jinx sighed, "What's that supposed to mean?"

"Do you remember what I told you a few years back? I said that there would be a day that I wouldn't have to be with Kole, and that day is here. She finally realized that I didn't love her; she's gone back to her old home with Gnnark. I've always loved you Jinx, you know that. So if you'll have me, I'm yours."

Jinx slowly turned her head to look at the red-haired man before her. He wore a serious expression, an expression she had only seen on his face a few times in the time she had known him. She was quiet for awhile but then said, "Is she really gone?"

Wally still serious nodded, "Yes. She's not coming back, at least not to me."

"So I'm just second best then?"

"Don't do that Jinx, you know that's not true. How could you even think that!?" Wally said his voice rising a bit. He stood up and ran a hand through his hair as he walked over to the window.

He was right; Jinx knew that Wally loved her. She trusted him more than anyone in the whole world, he knew her. So coming to this realization Jinx smiled, "Wally." He turned to look at her. "Get your ass over here before I hex you and kiss me."

He did as he was told and immediately crashed his lips onto hers. The two moaned softly, they had truly missed each other. Now they were together again, and no one was going to separate them. Eventually Jinx pulled away, "Just know that if you so much as even look at another woman I will kick your ass."

"Mmm, how bout you spank me instead?" He smiled as he waggled his eyebrows. Jinx then smacked him upside the head. The speedster only laughed.

"You would think you would have matured by now," she scowled.

He gazed at her, "What can I say, you make me young again." They were then interrupted by a soft knock on the door.

A woman with brownish-red hair and white bangs dressed in green scrubs stepped in. "Mr. West and Miss Taylor Ah assume?" she said with a thick southern accent.

The two nodded at the woman. "Hi, Ah'm Doctah Lebeau but y'all can call meh Rogue." The two recognized her; she had been a part of the X-men team when they were younger.

They nodded, "Nice to meet you."

She nodded back at them "Yah daughter is going ta be fahne. When Ah saw her memories Ah saw that she had been through a rough night, but she will survive. She took down a man named Rigel. He tried to steal her powers but she beat him, and he won't be coming back. She took care of him forever. The most she suffered were a few bruises and a couple sprains but our healers took care of those. Once she wakes up yah should be able to take her home. She may have a headache but don't worry, all of mah patients do after I absorb them." Jinx and Wally nodded in understanding.

The southern doctor smiled at them, "Y'all got one brave daughter. Yah should be proud." And then she moved on to the black haired girl in the next bed with the bandages around her head.

"Oh yes we are," Wally whispered as he gazed down at the slumbering Thalia.

Outside Jude was sitting with his back up against the wall. He had heard the whole conversation and smiled to himself, happy with the results.

Tyler's eyes fluttered open aware of the pain that was pounding in his head and he was momentarily blinded by the florescent lights, 'Wasn't I at the school gym?' Not aware of it he said aloud, "Where am I?"

"Unique Hospital's Emergency Room," Tyler turned to see a raven-haired ghost-boy with his eyes closed in the bed on the other side of the room. Jared's voice came out as a hoarse whisper

Tyler groaned and closed his own eyes, "Out of all the people in the fight they put me in here with you."

Jared choked out a laugh, "Deal with it Water-boy."

Tyler was silent for a moment but then he his last memories surfaced and he turned to his room-mate, "Do you know if Al- I mean if the others are okay?"

Jared noticing the blonde's mess up, and knowing exactly who Tyler was asking about replied, "Uh-huh, the "others" are just fine." He put as much emphasis on others as he could.

Tyler however decided to ignore this, "Well good, wouldn't want any body dying." He turned over on his side again.

It was awhile before Jared spoke again, "Y'know technically I have the right to kick your ass."

Tyler rolled his eyes, clearly annoyed, and then once again gathered up his strength and said, "Fenton what the hell are you talking about?"

"Well Logan, last year after her accident I promised Alex that if you ever hurt her if she wanted me to I'd beat you up." Jared said with a smug look on his face.

"Oh yeah and what did she say about that?" Tyler snapped, "God this guy is irritating!'

Jared laughed, or coughed something that sounded like a laugh, "She said that she'd do it herself, but I don't think she'd mind if I stepped in."

Tyler didn't respond. Jared knowing he had crossed a line said, "Hey man I'm sorry. I know you don't like me but believe me, I don't have any feelings for Alex that aren't platonic. If I'm lying you can get a free shot."

Tyler looked at the whelp, his face looked honest and it didn't sound like he was lying. 'Or maybe it's just the head injury making him sound that way.' Tyler thought about it for a minute, this was Jared he was talking to. Jared who had helped kidnap Alex, watched her get tortured, but had also helped take down Fahrenheit and tonight helped them try to defeat The Shaken.

Taking a deep breath he said, "Okay, I guess I believe you. And If you are lying, I am going to take that free shot."

Thalia woke up to find her parents sitting asleep in their chairs, her mother's head cradled in her father's lap. The young girl smiled to herself and looked around the room. Erica was in the bed next to her sleeping very soundly. She silently propped herself up into a sitting position and stretched and yawned.

"Good morning," a voice whispered, making Thalia jump. Jude was standing in the doorway shuffling his cards. "Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you. How are you feeling?"

"Calm surprisingly, my head hurts a little though. Why are you standing all the way over there?" Thalia asked Jude hadn't moved since she woke up.

The boy smirked, "Family only, it's against the rules."

That made Thalia laugh, "and since when do you care about the rules?" Jude thought about this for a minute shrugged and then walked into the room. "Guess you're right."

"Of course I am, how are the others? Is everyone okay? What about Xander and Rowena?" Thalia asked eagarly. Jude laughed.

"Everyone is fine, parents are barreling in by the second. The last time I saw Xander, he was yelling at 'Ro to get checked out. She was yelling back that she didn't need to be checked out because there wasn't really any damage done to her, but Xander being weird like that basically threw her over his shoulder and walked into an examination room and set her down. Turns out she was right, nothing wrong with her," Jude said grinning. His eyes sparkling.

His eyes, they were different. They were gray now. "Jude, have you looked in the mirror lately?" Thalia asked.

"Why? Do I look that bad? The nurse said I looked fine," Jude said.

"No it's not that but your eyes are different, they're gray now. They used to be black." Thalia said.

Jude's smile faded, "Yeah, I saw the same thing happen to Xander and Rowena. Xander thinks it's because now that The Shaken are gone, we can have normal lives again. Meaning no dark eye color and no scars." He held up his hand to show her that in fact, his scar had disappeared. It was as if it had never existed. Thalia looked down to her own hand and saw nothing as well, the red "s" was no longer there.

A thought occured to her, "Jude, Rigel said you all share the same dark eyes because of your power. If that's true then why are my eyes blue?"

Jude smiled, "That's simple, it's because you're different. Rowena's little sister Morgana had hazel eyes, she was a chosen one too. She was the one The Shaken had absorbed the last time, hundreds of years ago. Morgana was a chosen one too, not as strong as you though. She couldn't fight off The Shaken and Rowena has sworn revenge ever since. Her eyes are the same as her sister's: hazel. Xander's have changed to green though."

"Poor Rowena, how old is she?" Thalia asked, Jude had said hundreds.

"Rowena and Morgana lived in Salem during the witch trials. So she's about three hundred years old give or take a few decades. Physically she's a couple years younger than Xander is," Jude said.

The two were silent for a bit, but then Jinx stirred. Seeing that Thalia was awake she sprung up from her seat, nearly hitting Wally in the jaw, not quite the way he wanted to wake up, and hugged her daughter. "Don't ever scare me like again okay, Thalia Taylor?" Jinx commanded. A hand rested on the woman's shoulder.

"Jinx she's fine, relax. How ya doin' kid?" Wally asked with a smile.

"I'm fine, I had a headache a little while ago but it's gone now. What's up with you two?" Thalia said with a smirk on her face. Both parents blushed.

"We'll talk about it back at the tower kid, do you think you're ready to go back?" Wally asked while ruffling her hair.

Thalia giggled, "Yeah I think I am." She got out of bed and turned to Jude. "You're coming too right?"

The boy put his arm around her and replied, "Thalia as long as I'm welcome I'll be right by you." With that the four strode out of the room nearly running into a worried looking Aqualad, and walked into the waiting room to see most of the Titans and their parents already there.

Kori had Derek in one of her famous bone breaking hugs, and Nightwing was examining the bandages around Alex's arm. Alex was rolling her eyes at her dad's concern. "It's nothing dad, the doctor said it should heal up in no time."

Raven and Desiree sat in a corner talking to eachother quietly. Gar was leaning against a wall smiling while Terra hugged their kids. The other kids were in similar situations with their parents but all was quiet when Thalia entered the room, all heads turned to look at her. Derek was the one who started the applause. Thalia blushed and stuttered "Th-thank you." She led the way out of the hospital and back to the tower, back home.

It was Christmas Eve and a party was going on in the Titan's Tower. To say the place was crowded would be a bit of an understatement, somehow the Titans East and West had fit along with their parents plus Jude, Xander, and Rowena. Gavin had even been invited, though he didn't really seem to enthused to be there at first. There was barely any room to walk in the whole tower. Music was playing, people were dancing and laughing, celebrating the victory that had occured just the night before. Someone was missing from this group, she was sitting on her bed in her room strumming her guitar.

Alex had felt the need to get away from the crowd, she needed time to think about what had all gone on. Once they got home, most everybody went back to sleep herself included and, this time she had no nightmares. Save for the premonition about the dance, that would make it about two weeks since Alex had had a nightmare. Last night she had a dream, she didn't get those too often. This dream was a memory too, it was of last year when she woke up in the gym in Tyler's arms for the first time. The dream then flash-forwarded to her first kiss with Tyler. It had shown a montage of events that occured between the two over the past year. When Alex woke up she remembered what Tyler had said to her last year while they were alone in the MedBay in the tower, "I wanna have the chance to save you." She had been stupid, very stupid. Tyler had only cared for her when he suggested that she needed help but, she blew it way out of proportion and ended up being miserable.

Alex picked a song and started to play and as she played she sang, "Hello there, the angel from my nightmare. The shadow in the background of the morgue. The unsuspecting victim, of darkness in the valley. We can live like Jack and Sally if we want. Where you can always find me. And we'll have Halloween on Christmas. And in the night we'll wish this never ends, we'll wish this never ends."

"I miss you," a voice spoke from the doorway. Alex turned to see her favorite blond standing looking at her. "I was wondering when you were going to pick up the guitar again, you haven't played it in forever," he said nervously walking in to sit down beside her.

"Yeah I guess I just felt the need to play it," Alex answered not meeting the boy's eyes. An awkward silence filled the room, neither teen knowing how to stop it. Finally they both got up the courage and said:

"Alex."

"Tyler I..."

"Sorry, you go first."

"No I interrupted you go first."

Tyler sighed, this wasn't going to be easy, "Alex I'm sorry for the way I acted, I was wrong to be jealous of Jared. I see that now, and I'm sorry for offending you when I said you needed help. I could've gone about it a different way. I guess what I'm trying to say is that I miss you Alex, it was a mistake to break up with you and I'd like to try again if you'll let me."

Alex stared at the boy sitting next to her. He had his serious voice on, but didn't he know how riddiculous he was being? "Yes, you were wrong to be jealous of Jared but who cares about that? The break up wasn't your fault Ty, it was mine. I let my pride get in the way and I snapped at you, for that I am deeply sorry. So why are you the one asking to be taken back when it should be me? I miss you too Tyler, more than you know. So can we try again?"

Tyler looked at her and smiled, he then leaned in and kissed her chastely on the lips, "Hells yea we can try again." Smiling Alex tackled him to the floor and proceeded to kiss him until they were interrupted by Derek clearing his throat.

The red-head looked rather smug as he said, "Well it's about time, you two were driving everyone crazy."

I know, a lot of mushy stuff going on and I'm sorry but I just had to. I'm sorry if it was pathetic, I'm better at the sad love stuff than they happy. Also sorry for the lame hospital name, I couldn't think of anything better. One more chapter to go!
