The Day We Met You

What's in a name?

The Killjoys finally made their way home by the time the sun had completely set. Show pony was leaning against a gas pump arms crossed in a sassy pose waiting for them to walk past them.

" Well Hello Hello look who it is." They said

" I thought ya got Ghosted, I was just about to take your eye shadow Poison." They said intrigued as to what was going on.

" How considerate all you wanted was come crappy colored powder from my demise." He said back not giving Pony the reacting they were hoping for.

" Whatcha you got there Jet?"

" A kid."

" A what?" they said as The men pushed past them to get in the door.

Jet Star carefully laid her on the beat up blue loveseat in the center of their shared bedroom/living room.

" Ghoul can you go get the first aid kit?" Jet asked propping her head up with a pillow

" Yeah sure!" he responded enthusiastically running into the hallway

" HEY DR.D WHERE'S THE FIRST AID KIT?" he yelled

" Why? Get bit by another Lizard?" He responded

" HA HA! VERY FUNNY NO I DID NOT!"

After pulling apart a closet he found the dented metal box with a faded cross on the front and presented it to Jet star who had begun actually patching her arm up.

" So what do we do? Do we send her back to the city?" Kobra asked peering over Jet's shoulder to watch what he was doing. 

" Not if she doesn't have any family back there. You know what they do to people who escape if they ever catch 'em." Poison said

" True, true." Kobra replied

" what should we do then?" Ghoul asked now

" Well.. I was thinking if she didn't have anyone...like us...I mean if she wanted to...She could stay." Poison suggested

" I'm up for it I love kids." Jet said putting everything back in the rusty box.

" We have to ask her, we can't just assume she's gonna want to stay with a bunch of strangers though." Jet continued brushing her hair out of her face.

Almost on Que she began to stir. She blinked her eyes hard a few time until they refocused before gasping and immediately reaching out for the nearest thing she could find which was Jet's hand at her side.

" It's alright, your okay." He reassured her squeezing her hand back.

" How ya feeling sunshine." Poison asked kneeling down next to the couch.

" Okay." she said shyly

" You hungry?" Ghoul asked eager to eat something himself having not even started his dinner.

" A little." she admitted

She relaxed a little having now talked with the men who saved her.

" I know we introduced ourselves but we never asked for your name." Poison said

" I don't know my name." she admitted quietly shrinking back into herself

" That's alright. That just means you can make one up yourself." Jet reassured her putting a hand on her shoulder.

" Make one up?" she questioned

" Yeah whatever you want. Just take some cool words and mash them together." Ghoul said

She looked around the room looking for something to inspire her. A large poster on the wall in front of her. It said a lot of things but being only five she couldn't read the majority of them. One word she could make out however was Missile. 

" Missile-" she started not sure what word to put next. She looked up at the tall blonde man wearing sunglasses inside. What was his name Kobra..Kid right? she thought

" Missile Kid." she stated

 " That's a killer name!" Ghoul exclaimed

" we got matching half of names." Kobra noted blushing slightly

" Man I wish I thought of that." Poison agreed 

" Nice to meet you Missile Kid." Jet said

she smiled

" Nice to meet you too."
