Tim was in Metropolis on a break from Gotham city, Gotham University and anything to do with being Robin, or also known as the Boy Wonder. It was everything that he wanted to be part of the Batman legacy an being his new partner in fighting crime was a blast. Even though he had been doing this for almost four years or so, he still felt need to show and prove to Bruce that he could be how Dick was or maybe better then him. Even though he left Gotham for a well needed break from the University, he brought his Robin attire just in case he needed to come out and play. Now Tim wasn’t looking for it, but it seemed that he was magnet for scenarios like this and he had a feeling that before he left Metropolis he would have to dawn his crime fighting gear. Using his laptop in the coffee joint that he was in right about now, he was messaging one of his university friends about some class work, when he noticed something. Three men walked in and they looked like they belonged in the other side of the city, and Tim had been thought to read people on the way they dressed, looked and acted and these men looked suspicious. When Tim slowly closed his laptop and looked at one of them, he noticed a sign with a hand given to the other guy and that is when it happened. One of the men took out a gun and pointed it at the cashier and demanded some money, the people inside the coffee place started to run out the building but not Tim. He slowly placed his laptop in the backpack that he had with him and took hold of the hot cup of coffee and threw it at the man with the hand gun. The coffee hit the hand with the gun as the man yelled in pain and the gun fell and it went off by its own. “Sorry! I was next in line!” Tim told them in one of his smart ass comments and when one of the men approached him, Tim jumped on top of the table and conducted a round house kick to the approaching man. As he made a flip over the man he had just kicked, he landed on his feet and noticed a knuckle sandwich approaching his head and he ducked down to avoid it. Tim conducted an upper cut to the chin of the attacker and the man went back wards as Tim used his right leg to trip the attacker to the ground. The third man was shocked to see a 19 year old boy handle himself like this and Tim looked at him and smiled. “Dude, you really going to let a younger guy beat your buddies and you?” A small smile appeared on his lips and that just made the last man angry. The third robber ran towards Tim and he conducted a swift left move to avoid his spear attack. The attacker went forward and hit one of the beams with his head and fell to the ground. “Get out now!” Tim looked at the cashiers as they followed his instructions. With the men moaning and groaning, Tim looked at his surroundings and picked up his backpack and ventured into the restroom. He quickly took off his long sleeve shirt, pants to reveal his Robin gear. As he took off his cape from the backpack and placed it on along with his domino mask to cover his face. Before he ventured out, he placed on his boots and settled the hilt of his extending bow staff in his utility belt. Coming out of the restroom, he noticed the men where gone as he bolted out of the front door and noticed one of the men running into a nearby alley.

I'm not gonna stand here and wait...Someone told me love would all save us. But, how can that be? Look what love gave us. A world full of killing and blood spilling, that world never came...Illyria was out of Gotham taking pictures of a special press conference her editor needed pictures of. She figured in her spare time in Metropolis she could still run around as a costumed hero. This was a big city and she was sure she'd find crime in all the most obvious places. Jinx was sitting on a low rooftop of an office building. Her hood was pulled up so all that could really be seen beneath it was a pair of glowing violet eyes. But a gust of wind changed that, removing the hood and revealing her flame orange hair that whipped around. She could hear some commotion, the same old panic sounds radiating from a coffee shop. Okay so that wasn't one of the obvious places you would see being disturbed, props for creativity. A few moments later the vandals scrambled out of the coffee shop and scattered. One of them was heading towards the alley closest to her. Jinx jumped off the roof and onto the fire escape and down one flight of stairs. She then hopped over the railing and into the alley in front of the man. "Where are you going?"she asked. At first he stumbled to a stop before rushing at her as if to go around. She snatched the hood of his jacket and leaned down flipping him over her shoulder and into the ground. He coughed for air before standing up. "I'll give you another chance to get passed me. Come on, this is supposed to be fun."she grinned.The man pulled out a knife, this did not surprise or frighten Jinx. "Oh! I have one of those too!"she said as he moved to stab her with it. She deflected his arm before grasping his wrist and twisting it. With her other hand she forced her palm into his chest a bright purple spark singing his clothing and burning his chest a little. He grunted as he smacked against the wall. "You should learn to use yours a little better."she nodded and twisted his arm around to his back. "Well damn I don't have anything to tie you up with. I can't just walk you into a police station now can I?"She huffed. "You can't do this! I didn't do anything!! You don't have any proof!" The man said struggling against her tight grip, she kneed him in his side. "Says the man who tried to stab me a few moments ago. Where is some good old fashioned rope when you need it?"Jinx thought for a moment, "Well I could knock you out. Yeah lets do that." she said before grabbing the back of his neck and giving him a jolt of purple radiation. She let him fall to the ground, "No rope needed."she put her hands on her hips. A few burns but other than that this guy only had a wounded pride. Beat to a pulp by a female. tag:Tim Drake/Robin & Open × words: 503 × outfit: Costume Description In Profile× music: Hero by Nickelback × notes: N/Amade by vampka @ caution & sds & atf & BC

Tim sprinted his fastest through the sidewalk of the street as his cape flew elegantly behind him. He had too dodge a some crowds of people that were walking in the opposite direction that he was going, but he was making sure that he would not push anyone on the way. He did want to stop those robbers and pay for what they had done back there, maybe with a mix of a few bruises and a nice trip to the slammer in the back of a police vehicle. As Tim rounded up the corner of the alley he noticed two of the men going up the fire escape and he could not see the third, he had not time to look for him he would have to concentrate on the ones that he had in view of. As the men reached the top of the building he could see that the fire escape had been pulled back up, so that way he would not be able to follow them. The Boy Wonder chuckled a little as he took out from his utility his version of the Bat line as he shot up and it lodged itself within the ledge of the roof. Pressing the switch on the handle, he quickly was pulled up by the line and when he reached the ledge he pressed his feet up against it and conducted a flip over and landed on his feet on the roof. “Hey guess what! You guys forgot your change back there…….” One of the robbers stopped and looked at who was calling them. He gestured his comrade to look at the person who was dressed in some type of attire, with a domino mask and a cape. They both laughed and figured it was a wannabe hero or something and Tim just tilted his head to the right and whistled to a playful tune. “Okay let me get this straight, you try and rob a coffee shop and get nothing out of it? Did you even get some free bag of coffees that were on the display on the way out? I saw how you guys got your ass handed to you by some kid with a backpack…..someone needs practice eh?” Tim was surely taunting this men and he was hoping they would take the bait and cloud their judgment a little. Finally one of them came forward and run towards TIm as he took a lunging swing at Tim and the boy wonder did the splits and punched the guy on his testicles. As the man held his family jewels in pain, Tim quickly jumped off and kicked the guy on the face as he did a handspring to get his stance up and running. The other robber pushed his friend out of the way as he stopped a few feet from Robin and placed his hands in a boxing form. “Here is your change!” Tim said as he began to throw punches at the man as some connected and some were blocked by the bad guy. Tim was struck in the face by one of the punches and he went back a few feet and the man tackled Tim to the ground the wresting began for the upper hand in the mix. The robber was the first to get up and picked up Tim by the collar of his fighting attire and threw Tim to ledge as he used his hands to stop himself before he would fall over. As he laid there he could see the third man in the other alley getting his ass kicked by someone else. But before he could look more he could feel the other man coming his way and Tim picked up some debris from the roof top and launched at the man face and eyes. When the robber yelled in discomfort and tried to fix his eyes and get the dirt out, Tim jumped in the air and used his left leg to hit the man on the side of his head. The man was pushed to his side as Tim run forward again and initiated a straight forward kick to the man’s chest and sending the man back and onto his buttocks. When Tim landed on his feet he had to take a few seconds to catch his breath, but it would not be since the other man was coming to Tim’s direction. “I guess this counts as my workout today…..” Tim mumbled to himself as he got himself ready to dish some more pain on these thugs.

I'm not gonna stand here and wait...Someone told me love would all save us. But, how can that be? Look what love gave us. A world full of killing and blood spilling, that world never came...Jinx leaned her criminal up against the brick wall and sighed, "You stay here. I'll be back for you, I want to go find your friends." She jumped high and climbed up the fire escape before jumping the space between the two buildings. She could hear some taunting and struggling not too far away. Was she going to run into Superman? He normally had bigger fish to fry so she highly doubted it. She easily hopped over another space between buildings though this time she had to grab onto a fire escape. The building she had jumped from being slightly shorter. She really needed one of those nifty grappling hooks that Batman had. Maybe she could buy one off him. Yeah right. The thought made her want to laugh.After making it to the top she noticed that one of the thugs was running at Robin, without having to think about it she let the bottom of her foot collide with the man's face. She put her hands on her hips and looked at Robin. "I thought I smelled spandex."she smiled playfully, kicking the man on the ground over on his back and keeping a foot on his chest to pin him down. "Mind sharing, sweetheart?" Jinx winked and breathed deeply, the sharp claw-like ends of her armored gloves sparked. She felt much better up on this roof than down in that alley. Claustrophobia was a bitch, she wondered if any amount of counseling would take care of it, probably not with her luck. Jinx didn't mind teaming up if it meant getting a piece of the action, but she wasn't one to stick around and be part of something. She didn't trust herself enough. She'd make small talk and such after they had these thugs handled. Not that it was going to take long. These were little fishes compared to others she had handled in the past. Besides these guys had more muscle than brains which wasn't a very good thing when facing vigilantes. The thug groaned in pain and she looked down. "I think you swallowed a few teeth there. Guess the tooth fairy won't be coming to see you tonight."tag:Tim Drake/Robin & Open × words: 363 × outfit: Costume Description In Profile× music: Hero by Nickelback × notes: N/Amade by vampka @ caution & sds & atf & BC

The Boy Wonder embraced himself as the robber rushed towards him and Robin was thinking of his next move he will do on him. He could call and call for back up, but all his contacts were all back in Gotham and that was pretty far from here. But Robin wanted to handle this guy all by himself and prove to him that he could do this vigilante and hero business on his own sometimes. Back in Gotham he was known by the people as the partner or the media called sidekick to the Dark Night, but Robin knew that Batman saw him as an equal, like he did Nightwing. But before he could do anything out of the corner of his eye he noticed a female in another fighting gear that he had never seen before jump and takes care of the rushing robber towards him. Robin looked at her when she said that she smiled spandex and he looked down at his fighting gear. “Huh?” He said loudly but more to himself really as he looked on and what she did to the man and told him about his teeth. Robin smirked a little and liked the playful attitude that she had on her and how she talked to the robbers, almost like his smart mouth as well. Before he could say something to her, he looked at the other guy that he had taken down and he was now coming to terms as he stood up. Seeing now two masked heroes and his friend down for the count he began to run the opposite direction and take off. “Oh now you don’t!.....This is where it gets fun….” Tim said to her as he took off as well after the man and as he did, he took out a thin like rope from his utility belts and began to spin it around above his head as he run. Before the robber could reach the other side of the building and jump off into the fire escape, Robin through the rope at the man’s feet as they wrapped around his ankles. The robber fell head first on to the ground and he suddenly took off a knife from his pants pocket and began to cut the rope from his ankles. Robin did affront flip and landed on the man’s hand and ankle as he let go of the knife and fell beside him. Robin took out a batarang from his belt and lifted it up in the air, “Go ahead douche bag….give me another reason to use this on you” Robin told him with a sly grin on his face as the man began to beg for mercy and Robin knew his tactics had worked. Robin put the batarang back into his belt and began to hogtie the robber that he had stopped.

I'm not gonna stand here and wait...Someone told me love would all save us. But, how can that be? Look what love gave us. A world full of killing and blood spilling, that world never came...Jinx was focused on the man she was stepping on. She wished she could take all the credit for this little round up, but since Robin had already started beating these two to a pulp she would let him finish the other one off. It sounded reasonable, at least in her head. She watched him get the other guy without any difficulty. "Where do you guys get those utility belts? I believe I am in desperate need of one. They are so fancy."she was only half serious of course. She could always just make one, but she was curious if they made their own costumes. The man beneath her boot tried to push her off but she was not budged. "Hey, do you see me having a conversation here? Try pushing me again and I will have to knock you out."she said looking down at the man. "Oh can I borrow some of that lovely rope? I need some for this thug and one about a block away I knocked out in an alley."The thug beneath her foot with all of his might shoved Jinx off of him. She stumbled backwards as he scrambled up. He attempted to punch her in the jaw, she caught his fist and dug the claws on the ends of her armored glove into his fist. "What did I say? You've done pissed me off now." Her free hand grasped his throat and sparked that violet purple before he could get out any kind of remark. The thug crumpled on the ground. "And you've made me make a bad first impression on Robin." Her glowing violet eyes looked over to Robin, who probably thought she had killed the man so she quickly wished to assure him that the robber was not dead. "He will be out for a few hours. And he will wake up with a splitting headache."Jinx wasn't sure what else to say, she had already said a bunch. Maybe she should just shut up. Yep, that is exactly what she planned to do for the time being. Shut up. tag:Tim Drake/Robin & Open × words: 349 × outfit: Costume Description In Profile× music: Hero by Nickelback × notes: N/Amade by vampka @ caution & sds & atf & BC

Tim was running on adrenaline rush right about now and that was something that he noticed whenever he was done getting the bad guys. Bruce had always told him that he should be careful about that and not let it hit you in the wrong way and do something he would regret, Taking a deep breathe, he looked at the robber he had hogtied and his concentration was broken by her words regarding his belt. He slowly lifted his head up and looked at her as he flipped his cape behind him and slowly walked toward her direction. Stopping a few feet from her he looked at the man that was underneath her all beat up, “Actually you might have to talk to the Batman about that one…” The Boy Wonder told her as he smiled at her and wondered who she was. As the smart mouth robber ran his mouth and whatever attack she did on his neck. Robin noticed her eyes and the color and wondered if she was this people with special abilities around Metropolis that he had heard about. “What the hell did you do to him? And what did you create on your hand?” Like a brand new child trying to soak everything in and sponge it off, Tim was curious to know her explanation. “How do you know my name?” Tim could not remember being in Metropolis as Robin, since this was the first time here. Maybe she had been in Gotham and had heard stories of the cape crusaders that lingered within the city at night or a time of need? Robin slowly began to reach into left side of his utility belt and retrieve some more of that lightweight and thing robe that did wonders for situations like these. “Here ya go……” Robin told her as he reached over to give her some of his rope and she could tie that dirt bag she had underneath her.

A world full of killing and blood spilling, that world never came..."So the Bat does all the sewing then. Hmmn, explains a lot."she said stepping over the unconscious man to get the rope from Robin. She snuggly tied up the man and blew some of her hair out of her face. "It is wierd I never thought anything from girl scouts would come in handy, and lookie here." She looked up at him realizing he had been asking her questions. "I man handled him. He was doing trying to punch my pretty face.""I generally man handle large goons in Gotham. I don't get as much publicity as you and the big Bat."she said and smiled. "As for my pretty little light show, I haven't decided what to call it. But what it does is cause heat and pressure that most... normal people can't stand. Which is why he is unconscious."she explained. "Lucky for you, I play for your side and I don't plan on switching anytime soon."She put her hands on her hips. "So where are you stacking these?"she asked nudging one of the goons with her foot. "I wanted to make sure they get their other buddy. I don't want them getting lonely in the slammer, that would just be sad."she smiled. She ruffled her bright orange hair before looking off briefly, she could hear sirens now. "Their response time is rather slow. Superman should talk to them about that." Jinx briefly thought about making Robin uncomfortable by flirting with him shamelessly, but she was in a good mood and she didn't really think she was in need of too many masked buddies. "Oh, how rude of me, people call me Jinx. Well, I call myself Jinx; like I said I don't get much publicity. And I don't want it either."tag:Tim Drake/Robin & Open × words: 294 × outfit: Costume Description In Profile× music: Hero by Nickelback × notes: N/Amade by vampka @ caution & sds & atf & BC

He had to hand it to her she did have a sense of humor in her and Robin like that, since he himself would crack jokes from time to time. But for reason it was always fun whenever you were doing it doing some bad guy ass kicking or something along those lines. A small smirk appeared on his lips when she began to say that the girl scouts indeed had paid off for her in the long run. The explanation of what she did to the man had Robin intrigued and wondered what other powers she had within her. “Well whatever it was pretty cool, I kind of wish sometimes I had some cool power. They sure do come in handy sometimes…” Robin explained to her and sometimes he did feel like that whenever he was in a middle of a fight or in a situation that some meta-human power would come in handy. But in the long run and at the end of the tunnel he was who he was and he has the Batman to thank for that. So she was in Gotham as well? How funny that two cape crusaders would run into each other in other city that was not their place to bust bad guys. Robin was trying to remember if he had ever run into her a while back in his early stages of his training but his mind was coming up blank in the matter. Could be that this was the first time he had met her and if that was the case, then it was a good thing that he was on his side of the fighting battle. “Well glad to meet you Jinx, as you know already I am Robin, Boy Wonder….whatever.” He chuckled as he extended his gloved hands toward her for a handshake and possibly the foundations of a friendship here. The whole Boy Wonder thing was not his style but it came with the mantle of being Robin, it seemed that media back then had instilled that to Dick when he was Robin or something along those lines. When she said about Superman, yes this was his city and his playground but he had never met the dude at all. He wondered if Batman ever had, he certainly never spoke of it, but in either case this was Robin’s and Jinx’s caper and he will stick it with to the end. “I don’t know you would think he would be here by now, but no worry we can handle this, we have done good so far.” He said with a small smile on his lips as he saw her tie up the dude she had beaten up. Remembering her comment about the third dirt bag in the alley, he began to walk toward the ledge of the building and looked forward into the alley in the opposite side of the street. “His still down, we will have to get down there and finish the job off.” Robing told her as he took out one of his batarangs that was clipped to a small projectile gun from his belt. As he extended his hand forward a batarang was shot to the other side of the building as it pulled Robing and went gliding toward the alley. “You coming?” Was all that could be heard as Robin went flying his own way to the other criminal that was still down on the alley ground.

Jinx found it no surprise he was envious of her ability, most seemed to be. The grass is always greener from the other side. Sure there were moments she loved her ability, but she also knew the burden it became when it was out of control. This was the reason she didn't make friends with other vigilantes. Hurting those who didn't deserve it wasn't part of what she wanted to accomplish as Jinx. "Who knows maybe one day you'll earn a power."she said, though hers wasn't earned she wasn't going to blame the kid for being envious.

She wasted no time as Robin soared through the sky with the help of his little gadget. "Show off."she shook her head, amused. Jinx backed up and ran swiftly before jumping the gap between the buildings. "Right behind you bird boy." She didn't have to try too hard to keep up, she was quick on her feet. Upside of being a superhero was the exercise that a person got while running and throwing themselves from rooftop to rooftop. Jinx jumped and grabbed a hold of a fire escape that led down into the alley where the unconscious man still lay. She dropped down into the alley, landing perfectly on her feet. "Good he is still napping."

She put her hands on her hips and sighed. "Well lets get him tied up then."she said. She wondered what Robin was doing out on his own anyway. Generally it was Batman and Robin. Not just Robin. The two names just seemed to fit together. "So where is that Bat anyway? Does he know you've been cheating on him and running off all by yourself?"she winked and smiled as she flipped the goon over and started tying him up. Her eyes seemed to glow a lot brighter in the alley, maybe it was just because it was a bit darker there.

He always enjoyed jumping off from buildings and gliding his way from top to top as a bird would. All the training that Batman has taught him so far has paid off for Tim here. He enjoys showing off his skills and even though he had no special abilities like Jinx here he was still someone to be very weary of. People would underestimate him on his abilities because he had no power of his own and yeah maybe some of those powers would help in his cause but then if he did he would not be the Robin that you know today. But when he landed on the alley and looked at the man in the ground, the words of Jinx about the person here made him chuckle a little. “Me a show off? Come now I am just a person with no powers just doing what I can and what was taught to me” Robin told her as she began to tie off the man in the ground. When she asked where the Batman was, he looked at her and the comment of him cheating of him made him look at her and shake his head a little. “I don’t know where he is…probably in Gotham. He doesn’t know I am here and he doesn’t need to as well. Besides his not my father so that whole thing you read in the media about him treating me as a kid is all wrong, for god sakes I am nineteen.” Robin told her with some frustration in his voice, it sucked being the sidekick and how others looked at that. That just made Robin felt like he needed to prove himself much more and he wondered if Dick Grayson ever felt like he did right now. He looked at Jinx and them at the man all tied up and ready to be picked up by the police in a few minutes. “Look thanks for your help up there, it’s great to see someone else fight for those who can’t defend themselves in other places besides Gotham. You ever been to Gotham? I tell you what this Metropolis place here has more sunshine on it and I am not used to this.” Tim was more used to the darker side which Gotham was known for and the corruption that it had and it had plenty of it as well.
