revert css3 animation .click

Hello, I am playing around with the css -webkit- animation. No problem in making a div animate accross the screen etc but,

I am trying to get a div to animate once clicked, this is pretty easy by using .toggleClass with Jquery.

But I am having a hard time reversing the animation, so that it plays in reverse.

here is what I have thus far,

<body>
  <div class='box'>
  </div>
</body>

and this css with animation

.box {
  width: 100px;
  height: 100px;
  position: relative;
  background-color: black;
}


.boxSlide {
  width: 100px;
  height: 100px;
  position: relative;
  -webkit-animation-name: first;
  -webkit-animation-duration: 5s;
  -webkit-animation-fill-mode: forwards;
  background-color: black;
}


/* Chrome, Safari, Opera */
@-webkit-keyframes first {
  0% {background:red; left: 0px;}
  25%{background:yellow; left: 200px;}
  50%{background:pink; left: 500px;}
  75%{background:red; left: 200px;}
  100%{background:black; left: 500px;}
}

and finally the Jquery

<script>
  $('.box').click(function() {
      $(this).toggleClass('boxSlide');
  });
</script>

<script>
  $('.boxSlide').click(function() {
    $(this).css('-webkit-animation-direction':'alternate;')
  });
</script>

Also I should, once this issue has been fixed, would click on the box again after it has reversed it play normally and will be able to reverse again?

Thanks guys,

First time I have played around with the CSS3 animations
