I had my hand ready, ready to go right through him. But I hesitated, why am I hesitating!?! "you can't do it, I can see it in your eyes. you won't kill me"Joker evily smiled "I can! I'll kill you!" I yelled in anger, inching my hand closer to him. Why am I hesitating? he's killed so many, he killed aunt Cassy! I should be able to just put this right through him, no questions asked! "then kill me, do it!" he yelled, pulling my hand toward himself "go ahead, speedy, kill me. I dare you" my names not speedy, I'm lightspeed," I said with determination. 

With that, I went to thrust my hand right at his chest, but then I heard "STOP!" I froze cause I know who it is. Jason. I turned to the door, and there he was in his Redhood gear "don't do this," he said, inching closer to me. I looked away from him and back to killing the monster in front of me "babe, please, I know you're angry, but this isn't the way" HE KILLED HER!! HE HAS TO PAY!" I said angrily, my hand starting to vibrate faster

"he's killed so many! why should he get to live!?!?!" I know, but-" but WHAT!? he's caused this city so much damage and has taken so many lives! why does everyone else have to suffer while HE lives!!?" I was screaming, Joker shouldn't be alive" he needs to die!"

"fine," Jason said, relaxing only a few steps away from me "if you truly believe that, then fine, kill him" what is he saying? I could feel tears running down my face and my hand started to shake like I was having second thoughts "but is this what Cassy would have wanted? for you to kill her killer just because he deserves it?"

He does deserve it, but it's not the only reason "it took me getting captured by him to figure out what happened, and all because Batman-" I told everyone not to tell you!!" you-you what?" I croaked, my hand almost not vibrating anymore "don't listen to him, speedy, kill me, it's what Cassy would have-" YOU DIDN'T EVEN KNOW HER!!" I screamed at Joker, cutting him off, then I clenched my right hand into a fist and punched him with all my strength and speed, knocking him out cold, him a limp mess at my feet

I looked over to Jason, he took off his helmet and threw it on the ground then ran over to me, cupping my face in his big hands. I wanted to fall apart, let him hold me, but he kept Joker from me. He told everyone not to tell me who aunt Cassy's killer was, why? why would he do that to me? he knew how much it meant to me to find her killer. But instead, he told me that it was a random mugger and no way to ID him, and he made everyone go along with it, even though they knew the truth. He lied to my face and made everyone else lie to me too. 

"babe, you ok?" I could hear the concern in his voice "I'm fine," I spat, not wanting to talk to him. I felt him wipe off some tears from my face "y/n, please, look at me" he sounded sorry, and I love him, I can't ignore him like this. I looked up at him, trying not to show any emotion. I met his blue-green eyes with my e/c colored ones "there she is" he smiled "come on, let's go home" with that he grabbed my left hand and started walking away

I quickly took my hand out of his "no" I stated "I need to drop this monster off at Arkham" I then grabbed the unconscious Joker's collar "I'll meet you back at the cave when I'm done" then in a flash, I dragged Joker behind me as I ran to Arkham 

~third pov~

Jason couldn't believe what y/n said, the anger the was painted all over her face, her hand ready to vibrate through Joker and kill him in seconds. That image was burned in his mind. What was even worse was she looked upset with him, but Jason doesn't blame her. He kept who killed Cassy a secret from her. He made everyone, her family, lie to her face. And for what? she's probably more broken now then she would've been if Jason had just told her the truth, to begin with

Jason made his way over to a corner of the room where his helmet had rolled. He picked it up and slipped it on, then when he turned around Barry was behind him. I bet you're wondering "why didn't Barry help Jason talk y/n down?" well, Bruce told him to wait and let Jason talk to her. And that's what he did "I saw her leave with Joker, is he-" no Barry, she didn't kill him, she's just taking him to Arkham" Jason's robotic voice answered

"that's good, right?" Barry asked, "yeah, but you didn't see what I saw" what do you mean?" I mean, the look in her eyes. she was going to kill him if I hadn't talked her out of it" Jason said "you don't know tha-" I DO know that" Jason interrupted "I know that because she had the same look on her face that I've seen on my own. a look that means I don't give a crap. she didn't give a crap about anything, she just wanted him dead and I don't blame her" Jason said, almost in anger "let's just get back to the cave

When they made it back to the cave, y/n was now where in sight. Jason asked if anyone had seen her, they all said they saw her lightning trail but they were to chicken to poke the bear

~your pov~

I had been thinking seriously about going to Central city ever since Bruce said something, but now, with everything that's happened, I've made my decision. I know Jason will hate it, but I need a break, I need sunshine and rainbows for a little while. The thing is, I think I'll like it in Central city, I'll have people that will teach me how to be a speedster hero, I'll be able to learn so much more

I tore off the suit and mask, folding it nicely then put it in a duffle bag and scootched it under my bed. I reek of sweat, I really need a shower. But I'm too tired. Instead of taking a shower, I plopped on my bed, instantly falling asleep.
