How You Meet

Here's another How You Meet chapter for a few recently requested characters.

Jinx

You yawned, stretching out your stiff limbs. You were walking to school, as you did everyday. And, just like every other day, you were tired as hell.

The sound of footsteps running behind you made you turn to look in that direction. A girl with pointy pink hair ran past you quickly. There was a flash of purple and suddenly you were on the ground with all you things scattered around you.

She stopped running and looked back at you. She quickly muttered a quiet "sorry" while helping you up off the ground.

"Did you do this?" You asked, looking at all the papers on the ground.

She slowly nodded with a frown before apologizing again. "I really am sorry. Sometimes my powers have a mind of their own."

You looked up at her, surprised. "Powers?"

She opened her mouth to speak but something behind you made a look of fear cross her face. "I really wish I could talk now, but I have to run." She said quickly while reaching into her pocket. "Here, we can chat over lunch or something." She said, handing you a business card before running into the alley next to you and disappearing around a corner.

You turned to look at the reason for her quick retreat and saw the Teen Titans running towards you. "Did you see which way jinx went?" Robin asked quickly.

You assumed 'Jinx' was the girl you just had a short conversation with and pointed in the opposite direction that she actually went in. He thanked you before they ran off.

You looked down at the business card reading what was printed on it.

Terra

You were sitting in the outskirts of town reading a book. You enjoyed the quiet considering its always loud in the city, with people always robbing banks and whatnot.

The silence had been broken with a loud thud and the ground rumbled lightly. You looked up to see a blonde girl with blue goggles. She was relativity far away and hadn't noticed you yet. She lifted her arm and with it, parts of the ground rose. Large clumps of earth floated in midair before flying across the open space, thudding against the ground and breaking apart. You watched in amazement as she repeated the action. She started 'throwing' them in differently directions. Spinning as she did.

Her eyes meet yours as she faced your direction. For a second you just stared at each other before she started to look angry. A large clump of dirt came up out of the ground and she jumped on it, floating away. You were slightly sad that the show was over but you continued reading your book nonetheless.

"Who are you?" A sudden, angry, feminine voice startled you a few minutes later. You looked up to find the mystery girl glaring at you. "How did you find me? Are you working for Slade because if you are you can tell him-"

You cut her off, "Dude, I'm not working for this 'Slade' guy."

She huffed. "Are you working with the Titans then?"

You shook your head. "I'm not working for anyone."

"Then you're here to make fun of me?"

You were shocked. "Why would I make fun of you?" You questioned.

She seemed taken aback, rubbing her arm nervously. "Because I can't control my powers."

You hummed. "Could've fooled me."

She gave a small smile which she tried to hide but you still noticed. "Really?"

You nodded. "Oh yeah. I mean, I don't know all that much about superheros, but all that," you motioned to where she was previously, "was awesome."

This time she didn't try to hide her smile, or the small blush on her cheeks. "Thank you. Um... What's your name?" She questioned, all trace of anger gone.

"Y/N."

"I'm Terra."

Gizmo

You headed towards the park since it was a nice day out. The sun was shining and there was a light breeze. Perfect for a day outside.

Stepping into the open area you noticed a boy about your age sitting at a picnic table. He looked to be on the shorter side, but since he was sitting down you weren't sure just how short he was. His hair was shaved really short and he had a pair of goggles on his forehead. He had a complicated device laid out on the table, gadgets and other electrical devices laid out all around him.

You were in a mood to make a new friend so you walked over to his table sitting across from him. You could now see clearly that the device was some sort of metal box.

He looked up at you, raising an eyebrow. "Do I know you?" He questioned.

You shook your head. "No, I just thought you looked interesting is all. What's that?" You pointed to the contraption.

He seemed hesitant to answer but eventual spoke. "It's an all-purpose, indestructible, electromagnetic containment system."

You nodded. "Ohhhhhhh. I have no idea what that means." You said with a straight face.

He sighed before saying, "if something goes in, it ain't coming out without my permission."

"Oh OK. It's kinda small though, don't ya think?"

He shrugged, tinkering with it again. "When I'm done it will be able to grow and shrink to the size I want."

You nodded again. "That's really cool. Is it radioactive?"

He paused, "only a little. But I'll fix that." He picked up a screwdriver, poking around inside.

"What's your name?"

He hummed. "You can call me Gizmo."

You smiled. "I'm Y/N."

He looked up and saw your smile which caused him to smile too.

You looked down at your watch seeing you had already been here for a half an hour. "Oh man, I got to go." You said, standing up.

"So soon?" He asked before setting his screwdriver down. You nodded. "Oh, well, maybe we can hang out sometime?"

You nodded again, "that sounds great." You picked up the marker he had on the table and wrote your number on the inside of his arm. "Text me."

He smiled, saying quietly, "yeah, Ok."
