Power hidden inside her since before she can remember(when it was locked away from her by that brat) roils in her veins
She is amazing, an orchestra all her own
She is great, She is unordinary, She is Special and can't they-
She is rendered numb with a sound that leaves her ringing, right next to her ear.
As all fades to black, she can vaguely tell that she is caught and laid down.
For she never had a chance, not one little bit(against people so great).
