Hey everybody! Rosa Callainus here! You may or may not know me (probably not) but I once had a different account on here under the name of... actually I forgot. I haven't used that one in a couple years though (I may or may not have forgotten my login information, hehehe).

Anyways, I absolutely ADORE Flinx. I mean, Jinx is my all time favorite villainess (her and Harley Quinn) and I love Kid Flash (actually to be honest I am just in love with both of the characters, maybe that's why I love the ship so much). And recently I was starting to rewaken my childhood loves such as Teen Titans, Codename: Kids Next Door (which I'm sort of pondering whether or not to write a fic for that or not), Young Justice (okay well technically I was a tween when this one came out). Anyways, and since I've always LOVED Flinx, as well as both the Teen Titans and Young Justice, and since there are hardly any Jinx in Young Justice fics, I decided that I would just have to solve the lacking of those fics myself.

Now, keep in mind that this is my first time writing a serious fanfic in probably about three years, I have written a little earlier this year however they were just one-shots and I eventually went onto a temporary hiatus with those too do to lack of inspiration and procrastination. So I'm going to have to count on you guys to help make sure that I get off of my lazy ass and update this fic! If you have any ideas or suggestions, feel free to tell me in a review or PM. Don't hesitate to PM me, I love making new friends! Anyways, I do believe this Authors Note has gone on long enough. Without further adieu, I now bring you the prologue to Just a Jinx (I suck at names, I know). Enjoy!

Disclaimer: The only way I would own the Teen Titans or Young Justice would be if I married the creators, then divorced them and took half their stuff. Which is probably not going to happen. But hey, a girl can dream, right?

There is a certain beauty in silence. It gives one time to further expand their mental reach, to understand things that might have been clouded in the past do to futile distractions.

At least, that's what Raven told her. Though she might have just been saying that in order to get Jinx to shut up. And when Jinx voiced out her thoughts to Raven, the only response she got in return was: "You're the one wanted to learn how to do more complex magic. If you want my help then do what I say." After a little bit of grumbling in reply to the half-demon's response, Jinx eventually shut her mouth and continued meditating alongside Raven. Now that Jinx was with the Teen Titans, her and Raven got along fairly well. Although Raven didn't exactly trust her at first do to their history against each other, she slowly learned to like the girl do to her similar taste in fashion and magic (plus the fact that Jinx may have spared her from being hit by a giant sludge-covered monster with a well placed hex). Though the obvious similarities, the relationship between them was still slightly strained.

It wasn't until recently, when Jinx had approached the violet-haired girl with a request for Raven to teach her how to do magic, that their relationship had grown and the two now considered each other rather good friends. Of course, Raven knew that teaching a former villainess magic might not sound like a good idea, but Raven was already aware as to why the girl had wanted to learn how- she needed a distraction. After the Brotherhood of Evil had fallen, a lot of villains involved had gone into hiding, only a few of them showing their faces. Not to mention the fact that Jinx had to go toe-to-toe with her former teammates, as well as a series of unfortunate events that had befallen into Jinx's life, it was only natural that she would need something to keep her mind off of it all. However, sitting in complete solitude with nothing but her thoughts really wasn't helping.

"Hey... Rae?" Jinx started, hesitating slightly at using Raven's nickname.

"Yes?" Raven opened her eye, sparing a glance down at Jinx, who was tapping her fingers against her knees anxiously.

"Do you think that we could, you know, move on already? We've been doing nothing for three hours but meditate. My back's getting sore!" To further prove her point, Jinx stretched backwards slightly, her back letting out a loud cracking sound. "That's better."

"Fine." Raven let out a sigh, before she levitated herself up to her feet, placing them on the floor and glancing at Jinx. "We'll start out with a simple spell."

"Which would be…?"

"The spell can unknot things." Jinx looked at Raven, trying to figure out if she was serious or not. Upon realizing that she was, in fact, not joking, Jinx stood up from her place on the ground, her body once again letting out multiple cracking noises from sitting in place for so long.

"Great, now I can untangle all of my earbuds. Come on, Raven! I'm not a complete beginner. I just haven't had proper training on using spells, I've still used magic before. Like my hexes-"

"Which are almost a completely different thing."

"But it's not completely different!" Jinx defended. "Come on, I'm not asking you to teach me how to raise the dead, or to teleport or something. I just want to know something… useful!"

"Listen, I know how you feel like what happened was your fault-" Jinx visible winced at that statement, causing Raven to try to pick her next words more carefully. "But you can't change the past, if that's what you're trying to do."

"That's not what I'm trying to do…"

"Then what are you trying to do?"

"I…" Jinx was at a brief loss of words. What was she trying to do exactly? "I just… something!"

"Something."

"Please, Raven…" Raven let out a sigh. She didn't want to do it, but she didn't want to keep this up any longer.

"Fine. I'll teach you how to use a locator spell." It wasn't a difficult spell to learn. It was actually one of the firsts that Raven had mastered. But the specific reason that Raven had chose this one was that it was something that hopefully Jinx couldn't even mess up with her 'bad luck'. Plus if for some reason Jinx had decided to revert back to her villain ways, the spell really wouldn't do her much good in the long run.

"That sounds stupid."

"Do you want to learn how to cast a spell or not?" At that, Jinx shut her mouth on any opinions that she had. "Alright, now close your eyes and focus." Jinx did as she was told. "Now, expand your mind and reach out for what you want to find." Jinx couldn't help it if her thoughts went right to Kid Flash. She missed him. "Now repeat after me. Nunc locus."

"Nunc... lacus?" Next thing Raven knew, there was a blinding flash of pink light, and then Jinx was gone.

"Jinx? Jinx?!" Realization sunk into Raven, she had said the spell wrong. And now, she had no idea just where Jinx had went.

Meanings:

Nunc locus- Locate now

Nunc lacus- Transport now

You know, I actually got it on my first try. I was like, okay, let's look for a latin word for locate. Locus. Okay, good. Now, hmm... I want it to transport her. I wonder if there is a word for transport that looks like locus. Oh look, it's the first result. Well I'll be damned. Don't believe me, just look it up on Google Translate. It was literally my first option on both of them and I wasn't even trying at the time. Yeah, go me!

Also if anyone at all is interested in co-writing this with me feel free to hit me up. It might give me that edge I need to keep this fic rolling.

Fun Fact: This idea was bouncing around in my head for about a week now. And this is the first thing I did after I got home from school/work (considering I didn't even go home after school, since I had to go right to work). Anyways, I'm exhausted. I'll try to write up Chapter 1 tomorrow (actually I'm surprised I got this far).

Please review for... finding the right Latin word the first time?
