Jinx dunked her head beneath the showerhead, feeling the steady streams of water and watching as a small river of black liquid pooled near the drain.

She could hear a few noises from outside the bathroom- Kid Flash was already dressed and ready to go. He had preoccupied himself with the task of binding and gagging the two villains that were currently knocked unconscious and lying on the kitchen floor.

They had been waiting in the apartment, a fairly obvious ambush.

According to Wally, it was the same kind of surprise that the rest of the titans had experienced. His communicator now lay in fragmented pieces, still emitting tiny fizzling sparks, by the sink.

Honestly how had the titans been surprised?

The Hive badges were communicators as well, but at least theirs didn't contain tracking devices.

Jinx glanced at her singed fingertips with a sigh. She definitely hadn't been easy on the intruders. In a split second decision the lumbering idiots had somehow concluded that rushing her was the best plan of attack. As a result there was now a large dent in the living room wall. Hopefully the titans have some type of insurance…

Washing the last traces of dye from her hair, she quickly started to dry the pink shiny mass with a towel.

"C'mon Jinx- we need to go help save the world!" Kid Flash shouted impatiently.

She sighed, grabbing two thick black ribbons and some gel, deftly shaping her hair into two horn-shaped pigtails.

When she opened the door Kid Flash was already waiting on the other side.

"Ready?"

"Yep."

"Okay then, let's head out!"

She could tell that he was practically twitching with excitement as he swept her up in his arms.

When they finally stopped, the air was chilly and shrouded in a thick white fog.

They were in Paris, on the outskirts of the city and away from the glimmering tourist district. The Eifel tower glittered in the distance, barely visible from their location.

Almost no one would have ever suspected that the old warehouse, replete with rusty steel beams and crumbling brick walls, was actually the headquarters for an evil organization.
