Merry Christmas (I Don't Want to Fight Tonight) (Killer Frost Christmas Special)
"FREEZE!"
"...Poor choice of words, in all honesty." I said as ice began to spread from underneath my feet. The cops started to scream in fear as they were all frozen. "Merry Christmas, you get to live... possibly with frostbite and amputated fingers, but still, it's better than death." I said as I walked over to the thing I broke into this place for. Honestly, getting back to basics and escaping that League was the best thing I ever did. Pretty sure Canary's still holding a grudge but whatever. I went to grab the stupid thing I came here for, which, in all honesty I didn't even know why I was here for in the first place, before I saw a red and yellow... flash go by me and suddenly handcuffs were around me. "You know I'm not really in the mood for this-" I said turning around before noticing it was just some chick and not actually The Flash.
"And I really didn't want to have to spend my Christmas hunting baddies but here we are." The girl said.
"You picked a real shitty night to start playing dress up and trying to be someone else."
"I'm not trying to be anyone except me: Jessie Quick."
"Wait, is your first name actually Jessie? What did it take you two seconds to come up with that? Was 'Jessie Fast' already taken?" I asked annoyed. Again, wasn't in the mood tonight.
"Shut up! It doesn't matter what my name is now that you're stuck in those power cancelling handcuffs." She said.
"Whoever came up with those is a prick." I said sternly. Then a second flash showed up, except I knew this one... Kid Flash.
"Jessie, you-"
"I'm kinda in the middle of something here!"
"Yeah, I know but you took the wrong handcuffs!"
"I- ...What?" Jessie gulped before I looked at my hands and the handcuffs slowly froze before I broke them off.
"Neat." I said before shooting ice blasts at both of them.
. . .
"Finally! Those guards did not want to cooperate. But it looks like it's shaping up to be the Purrfect Christmas for me." Catwoman said as she admired her Newley obtained item.
"Ever meet a girl named- actually, never mind." I said as I shot a grappling hook and took the object from her grasp.
"What the- who the hell are you and who do you think you are trying to steal from me!?" She asked angrily.
"I think I'm the only guy to outsmart the entirety of the Justice League and the greatest marksman to ever live. You can just call me (H/N) though. I really don't wanna do this but trust me when I say I need this a lot more than you do." I said.
"Oh, really? Well, that's a shame-" She said before she quickly wrapped her whip around my wrist. "Because you're not gonna get it." She said through gritted teeth. She pulled me off the roof top I was on and down to her level before kicking my jaw. I went flying backwards as Catwoman caught the object. "Sorry not sorry. But that could've ended a lot worse for you." She said before something rolled past her and took the object for themselves. A guy who looked like he was in a brown sack unfolded himself and grinned.
"Quick question: when's the last time you've showered? You reek like cat food." He said.
"What the- now who the hell is this guy!?" Catwoman shouted.
"Who, me? I'm Ragdoll!" The guy in the sack said.
"Ragdoll? That sounds like an underrated super villain name if I've ever heard one. But still, I gotta get that." I said before shooting my wrist cannons at him. He kept contorting his body in weird ways which honestly started to freak me out. He then closed his eyes and stuck out his tongue before Catwoman ran past him and made a run for it with the thing now on her hand.
"You've gotta be shitting me." Ragdoll and I said at the same time.
. . .
"So what you're telling me is that you're an idiotic copy of the flash that couldn't get the job done, so now you and your boyfriend have to cheat and fight me at the same time?" I asked shooting a puddle of ice beneath both of their feet making only Jessie slip while Kid Flash ran at me and punched me to the floor.
"We're willing to break a few 'rules' of fighting when we stop you from breaking the law." Kid Flash said.
"Ugh, give me a-" I said before forming a ice dagger quickly before stabbing Kid Flash in the leg. "Break." I finished my sentence breaking the dagger in half. I began to get up again before Jessie Quick punched me back down.
"It's over Frost. It's going to take a Christmas Miracle for you to get out of t-"
"ALRIGHT YE DIRTY BUGGERS! YOU THINK YOUR SHITTY SECURITY IS ENOUGH TO STOP OLE DIGGER: THE GREAT CAPTAIN BOOMER-" I looked past Jessie and groaned when I saw Boomerang with four Boomerangs in hand and he paused after seeing the other three of us. "...Is this a bad time?"
"Is this seriously my guardian angel?" I asked.
. . .
"Thanks, toots!"
"Nice try, sackboy!"
"Bite it, No-Name!"
"Actually it's (H/N)!"
"More like... Lame!"
"Okay that's enough!" Catwoman shouted before snatching the thing from Ragdoll one last time. The three of us had been on the rooftops taking it like a reverse hot potato for the last few minutes. She hissed as claws came out of her gloves. "Why don't you boys settle this like men and we all fight for it!?"
"Fine by me!" Ragdoll said with a smile.
"Because I'm kinda on a time limit here!" I shouted.
"Well Im not gonna fight if some kid with some fancy guns is just gonna try and steal the prize the whole time!" Ragdoll said before tilting his head nearly 180 degrees and looking at Catwoman. "Truce?"
"Truce." Catwoman said before they both turned to me.
"Oh, Sweet Virgin Mary please save me." I muttered before the handle of an ax smashed into Ragdoll's face. Catwoman turned to see where Ragdoll landed before a knee went crashing into her face.
"...Honestly would've never guessed you were a vir-" I began to say before Artemis punched me in the face.
. . .
"I can't believe... we actually beat them." I said in disbelief as Jessie Quick and Kid Flash were wrapped up in one of Boomerang's stupid boomerangs that split up and became a net with their legs frozen.
"Oh, what? You didn't have faith in old Digger?" Boomerang asked.
"No." I said matter-of-factly. "So, How've things been since the Squad?"
"Well, I met up with me mates the Rogues and picked up where I left off. Lootin' and Stealin' and-"
"Killing?"
"Actually, Snart's got a thing about killing. Only reason I don't off these two speedy boys right here."
"Speaking of, what are you doing here?"
"I've been tryin' the past few weeks to get The Rogues to pull off this job to get this priceless gun but Snart wouldn't go for it, saying 'security is too strong'. But I was gonna show 'em no security is to great for Captain Boomerang!" He said triumphantly before I groaned.
"That's nice but that's also kinda why I'm here." I said folding my arms.
"Really? Selling these things ain't really your- oh! I get it! You still have a thing for (L,N), don't ya!?"
"Yeah... even though we kinda broke up."
"Wait, What!? Over what? That kid was totally into ya even with Harley bleedin' Quinn going after 'im!"
"Yeah I kn-"
"And no offense mate, but she's way hotter than you!"
"Wow, t-"
"Like, super hot!"
"Okay I get-"
"Like (Y,N) was crazy for not going with h- OW! MY GOOLIES!" Boomerang shouted after I punted him in the dick.
"Shut it, jackass!" I said. "Listen, all you need to know is we got into a fight but and now we're not together anymore... and to be honest I don't even know why I want to get him this so bad. You can take it and get your dumb money."
"Now... hold on, just a tick." Boomerang said trying to get back on his feet. "Maybe the day's messing with me noggin but getting back your guy is a little more important than Digger proven to the Rogues he's the greatest Criminal in Central City."
"Second best but go on."
"Keep the bloody gun. I'll come up with something else." Boomerang said.
"Are you serious?"
"If a dingo eats someone's baby but the father's a drunken bastard that doesn't even know the kid's name, did the dingo really eat someone's baby?"
"..."
"Just take the bloody thing." Boomerang said. I smiled.
"Thanks... George. You're a good... friend."
"Don't get all sentimental on me now, doesn't suit you. Happy Christmas, Cait."
"It's 'Merry Christmas' and 'Happy Holidays' you idiot."
. . .
"Didn't take you for the jewelry wearing type." Artemis said as I held an ice pack to my head at The Outlaws' HQ. Jason and Bizarro were out at Ma Gunn's paying her a visit.
"It's not for me it's for... Killer Frost." I said looking at the diamond incrusted snowflake necklace in my hand.
"That's a name I haven't heard in awhile. I thought you called her 'Caitlin' or 'Snowflake'?"
"You know why I'm not calling her that."
"Which is why I'm confused to why exactly you've gone through so much trouble on getting her this necklace, especially after what she did."
"Well, do you want it?"
"Goddess, no. What do you take me for?"
"Honest answer?"
"Would you like a second ice pack?" Artemis asked. I stayed quiet. "That's what I thought."
"Listen, I can't help it but I still have feelings for her."
"Like you still have feelings for me?"
"Yeah, exactly."
"Yeah, exactly. Except I've never cheated on you and doing everything in my power not to cheat with you." She said. "You have no idea what it's like to know you can't be with someone just because the timing of when the two of you found out you had feelings for each other was off and you can't break up with your current lover to be with them because you know the other person likes someone else a little bit more than they like you."
"Artemis, I-"
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that." Artemis said. "If you'd care to know I actually think it's sweet that you did this for her. Stupid, but sweet." She sat down at the opposite side of the table I was at. "Do you really think it's worth going back to her after everything?"
"Yeah."
"Then, I hope everything goes well for you too. May Eros be with you two."
"Thanks, Artemis." I said. "I should probably get going. It's almost the 26th." I got up to leave. As I got to the door Artemis stopped me.
"One more thing before you go." She said walking towards me before hugging me. I hugged her back and then she whispered "If that blue witch does anything to you again I'll break every bone in her body." I did my best not to laugh at it before letting go of the hug.
"I'll see you around, Artemis." I said.
. . .
I rushed to (Y,N)'s apartment. Christmas was nearly over and I needed to get this to him. I knocked on the door before it opened and a... teenaged girl answered it? I realized it was (Y,N)'s little sister, Zoey.
"...Are you one of my dad's work buddies?" She asked.
"Um, no- well actually yeah, kind of- but that's a story for another time! Is (Y,N) here?" I asked. Zoey raised an eyebrow.
"(Y,N) hasn't been home for months. Dad told me he was having girl problems."
"Oh... okay. It was nice meeting you, Zoey." I said before walking away.
"...Merry Christmas!" Zoey said as I walked away. I looked back at her and forced a smile.
"Merry Christmas." I said. I walked home when I heard some idiot blaring some weird Christmas song outside my base: The abandoned S.T.A.R Labs building. "Who the hell?" I asked myself as I got closer before gasping when I saw (Y,N) holding a boom box over his head outside the building. He hadn't noticed me yet.
"Come on, Cait! My arms are getting tired! And it's cold outside! I know that doesn't really bother you but it's really troubling for me!" He shouted.
"(Y,N)?" I said making him shriek and drop the boom box.
"H-Hey, Cait."
"What are you doing here?"
"Oh, Y'know, blasting 'Merry Christmas, I Don't Want to Fight Tonight' by The Ramones outside your window." He said.
"Caitlin, I-"
"(Y,N), I-"
"You go first-"
"You go first-"
"No, you go first-"
"No, you go first-"
"Look, Caitlin, I've thought about it for a long time and I want you back."
"And I'm so sorry that I got us to split up in the first place. It was all my fault and... I got you something."
"Really?"
"...Do you not see me holding a big ass gun?" I asked him. I handed it to him. "This gun supposedly killed Darkseid: the baddest bad guy around. And I know how much you like killing bad guys." I said scratching the back of my head.
"This is amazing!" He told me. "I got you something, too." He pulled out a golden necklace from his pocket with diamonds forming a snowflake in the center of it. I clasped my hands over my mouth in shock of how beautiful it was. "What, is it bad?" He asked.
"Just shut up and kiss me!" I said before leaping into his arms and kissing him. We stayed like that in pure bliss for about 10 seconds before (Y,N) pulled back and stared at me.
"I love you." He said.
"I love you. Too." I said with a smile on my face.
"That's good, Because Artemis told me if she found out you broke my heart a second time she'd murder you, so Y'know." (Y,N) said making my eyes widen.
