The Life and Times of Mistique Ann Threen: Code Naturess

It was a normal day at a normal middle school on the normal planet of Earth…you get the idea. The 8th grade lunch bell had rung a few minutes ago, and the 8th graders were eating their lunches. A typical school day. The local buzz was the usual; crushes, grades, report cards coming out the next day, the whole sha-bang. That's what a group of girls with the exception of one boy were talking about.

"So, Liz, what are you getting in Spanish?" a girl of dirty blonde hair asked.

"I don't want to talk about it."

"Oooo…is it that bad?" another girl of brownish/blackish hair asked.

"C+. My mom's gonna kill me. I'm getting a C+ in Math too." Liz said.

"It's not that bad! I'm getting a D in Science!" a boy of African-American descent, but with no accent, said.

The dirty blonde opened her mouth to speak, but Liz said something before she could speak.

"And I know you're getting all A's, Misty, so don't rub it in!" she said teasingly.

"Chill! I was just going to ask Andy what he was getting in Mr. Drinny's class!"

"Probably an F." said the brownish/blackish haired girl, giggling.

"Oh, be quiet Cindy. I bet you're failing French, so I wouldn't be talking!" Andy said.

Before Cindy could defend herself, there was a deafening crash as all of the tall windows shattered.

"Crap." Misty whispered to herself and waved her hand underneath the table.

Everybody ducked to avoid getting hit by the shards, but they didn't come. Some kind of force field stopped them before they could hurt anyone. Then a figure flew in and landed on a table, the one where Misty and her friends were sitting. He was dressed in all black, and you could see his muscles from the clothing being so tight.

"Oh Naturess, come out come out wherever you are…" he said in a sing-song voice.

Misty tensed, not knowing what to do. I can't become Naturess with everybody here! For so long I've managed to keep my identity a secret, and nobody knows, not even Liz! Should I just play it cool? Oh crap, what am I supposed to do?! Some hero I am, she thought. Then, without warning, the masked figure grabbed Misty by the neck and lifted her up.

"I know you're in this crowd, Naturess. I've tracked you down this far, and I am no where near giving up. And I know you can't stand seeing someone get hurt, so I suggest you come and save them."

A teacher had rushed in to see what had caused the crash. She gasped when she saw Misty struggling to break free of the man's grasp. She ran back into the women teacher's lounge.

"Mrs. Pepal! Call the authorities at once! There's a figure in there threatinging one of the students!"

"Oh my God!" Mrs. Pepal gasped while dialing 911.

Meanwhile, Misty was trying to breathe. All of the 8th grade student body was holding their breaths without realizing it. The figure tightened his grasp.

"As you think about revealing your identity, your friend's life runs out…"

Misty couldn't take it anymore. Her face was practically purple. All of the students were wondering where their hero was. The hero that had protected their small town one time too many. A hero that had dedicated her life to protect the innocent. The hero that was within Misty. A shrill scream ran through the students' eardrums and made them tense. A stream of water shot out of Misty's palm and hit the figure square in the face. She gasped for a much-needed breath of sweet air.

"What in the world…?" the figure gasped, and then realized what just happened. "It's you! You're Naturess! Not who I had pinpointed, but close enough!" The figure rushed toward Misty, ready to deliver a kick. Misty, now with lungs full of air, easily dodged his attack. Then a wind surrounded her, lifting her in the air. Blue, silver, red, and green swirls encased it.

Misty had become Naturess. She had a brown leather skirt and tang top that only had one strap. Her hair had turned blonde and she had brown leather "slippers". Naturess's eyes flickered green as she held her hand out above the ground, and then formed a fist. The tiles moved, and rock came up from the ground, hurtling towards the figure as Naturess waved her hand to him. He didn't dodge it as easily. It hit his arm, and he crippled over in pain. Then with eyes of hatred, he ran so fast the human eye could only see a blur. The figure laid blows until Naturess hit the ground. She leaped back up with amazing agility, and her eyes turned blue as she did a succession of hand movements. The fountain burst open, and a stream of clear, cold water smashed into the figure, knocking him against the wall. When Naturess's eyes turned silver, a jet of air kept the figure against the wall. Naturess avoided using her fire power so she wouldn't make the school burst into flames.

The fight went on like this until both were exhausted. Naturess used her air power to finally pick the figure up and hurtle the figure into the sky, until all you could see was a black dot. Why didn't I think of that sooner?, she thought to herself, feeling weak. Naturess managed to clear all of the debris to a corner of the cafeteria before she was surrounded by the colors of the elements, and was Mistique Ann Threen again. As she landed on the ground on her feet, the force field flickered away, and Misty collapsed to the ground, her last memory being the sound of ambulances, police cars, and pairs of feet running towards her.
