Jump City Dc Novels & Stories

Abigail anxiously tried to defend herself, but her trembling voice and the sweat rolling down her forehead betrayed her. Leon's eyes were filled with disappointment. "So, Abigail... it really was you…" "No! It's not what you think!" Abigail grabbed Leon's arm and pleaded desperately. "Leon, I swear I didn't do it on purpose! I didn't want to live anymore, and when I jumped… I never imagined I'd land on Zoe. I thought it was fate giving us a chance to be together when it happened! I-I love you very much! I couldn't bear to live without you…"

Meanwhile, the rest of us gather behind him. “What’s going on,” Ms. Justice asks. “There’s trouble in the city,” JumpStart answers, turning back to face her. “Seriously, you don’t know? Ever since I built this two years ago, the alarms have gone off at least a few hundred times.” Justice stares at JumpStart. He stares back at her before laughing “I’m sorry,” JumpStart says. “I know what you meant. I just wanted to mess with you.” While Justice lightly taps JumpStart on his arm, I punch him on his other arm.

Jace interrupted, pushing Lily to the center before he dropped down beside her and stretched his legs out. “Where’s Adams?” “In a cab and on his way home. He just needs a good night’s sleep.” “What were you saying?” Lily asked me, ignoring Jace. I smiled down at Lily’s expectant face. It wasn’t time for her to know yet. “I’m pretty sure I’m afraid of heights.” I said instead. “No way.” Jace argued, ”You went bungee jumping with us.” “Maybe it traumatized her.” Lily retorted. I didn’t think she really wanted to defend me. Any opportunity to argue with Jace was game.
