Open My Eyes - (A SeeJinx Story)

Jailbirds (Once Again)

       I don't know how long I was out... All I know is that I woke up with a horrible headache. I didn't want to open my eye as I lay down on the ground. At least, it felt like a floor. I tried to move my arms to at least try to sit up, only to find out that I couldn't.

       I tried once again before my mind finally registered that I was handcuffed... I sigh in frustration and decide to slowly open my mind, though I immediately regret it.

       I groaned as my head throbbed at the sight of light. It wasn't too bright, but it  worsened my head... I blinked a few times before adjusting to light. Although the eye on my helmet had a long crack down the center, my vision was almost perfect.

       As I suspected, I was in a prison cell. The walls were covered in dirt and filth, and the steel bars were rusty. The floor wasn't any better, but it was more appealing than the yellowed bedsheets I was currently laying on. I sat up on the rock hard mattress and detailed my surroundings. I stopped looking around after seeing the dead roach in the corner...

       I slightly envied it...

     These cells clearly were ignored and filthy. I hated it much more than the last prison cell I was in. It had a lot more security, but it was at least clean... The whole room smelled extremely musty and old. My headache was only worsening...

       I tried to relax on the rock bed, though it's hard to lay down comfortably when your hands are cuffed to your back.. I closed my eye and shifted to my right, adjusting my arms the best I can. This is the first time the cops kept my cuffs on while in the cell. I guess this is meant for torture... It's so uncomfortable...

       I managed to find a comfortable position after what felt like hours. My head still throbbed, though it was a bit less. I didn't even notice that I had fallen asleep... The rock-hard yellow-sheet mattress wasn't too bad, especially when my head felt like it was going to explode...

       Jinx lets out a heavy sigh as she watches the police cars drive away with her ex-friends... She knew that they'll all be able to escape the prison eventually. But whether that was comfort or worry was still unknown.

       The sounds of the sirens die down as the blinking red and blue lights disappear into the night. Afterwards, it was quiet...

       A little too quiet...

      Where's Kid Flash...? He usually comes by right after sending criminals to jail. Unless...

       Jinx sighs again and looks around expectantly. From the looks of it, nobody was here anymore. The museum guards locked up everything and left. The police took the Hive to prison...

       "I know you're here, Flash... Don't try to sneak up on me again..." Jinx warned to thin air as she continues to turn and look around, on guard.

       "Alright, alright... You got me.." The sound of Kid Flash's voice behind her made Jinx turn quickly with a slightly startled look. That look quickly turned to anger upon seeing the boy's smirk.

"Didn't I just say Don't sneak up on me..?" Jinx replied in an annoyed tone. She crosses her arms as if waiting for another one of his clever excuses.

       Noticing Jinx's mood, Kid Flash decides not to push his jokes too far...

       "Right... Sorry, I just don't know how else to get your attention.." He nervously smiles, hoping he said the right thing.
