Open My Eyes - (A SeeJinx Story)

A New Plan

       I make it back to the base. It was so quiet and lonely... Laying down in bed, I felt tears fill my eye. There was no way I'd be able to do this on my own...

But I didn't want to give up, no matter how impossible the upcoming task felt...

It was already getting pretty late, so I pull the blankets over my shoulder and try to fall asleep.

The warmth was comfortable, and it really helped me fall into a deep sleep...

"I told you I don't wanna talk about it..." Jinx crosses her arms and speaks firmly.

"C'mon, Jinx... I know that whatever it is.. It's really bothering you... You can talk to me.. I can help... You just have to let me..." Kid Flash tries to get Jinx to open up with a calm tone of voice.

       "Fine.. If you want to know so badly, I'll tell you... I'll tell you how bad everything has been for me.."

       "Bad...? I don't think everything has been bad..."

      "Really...? So being untrusted isn't bad..? I haven't been given an actual chance by any of the heroes... I always have to have a hero within ten feet of me... And you know what..? I don't feel accepted... I don't feel like I belong.. And that isn't bad...?"

      "..."

       Jinx sighs and covers her face with one hand in frustration.

      "What about me...?"

      "What about you..? You always seem to be living your life carefree... Without a worry of fitting in, since you always do.. And that doesn't make me feel any better... In fact.. Being around you makes me feel worse...

       I feel like you're the only person in the world to trust me blindly... But that's wrong... Those 'losers' you 'saved' me from never second guessed me... Sure, they were idiots that'll get distracted easily.. But they were the only people that made me fit in...

       I probably wasn't meant to be a villain.. But I know damn well that I'm not a hero either..."

      "Just stop it... Stop holding on to your past... Those villains were never your friends.. You weren't happy... Let. Them. Go. Jinx. They're all frozen solid anyways..."

      "They were my friends... And we messed it up.."

      "Jinx... What about us...?"

       "I guess I was really unlucky to have met you..." Jinx scoffed and walks to her bedroom. She closes the door and lays on her bed with teary eyes.

       "Why does my life feel like a curse...?" She whispers gently before slowly drifting off to sleep.

       The next morning arrives and it's once again hard to get out of bed...

I shift in bed a couple of times, before finally sitting up and stretching. Rubbing my eye, I stood up and began walking down the hallways.
