X-Men Legends: The diary of Magma

Dear Diary,

My life is over. I needed to write this down.
Good News: I won prom queen.
It was the happiest moment of my entire youth. Mandy, Lise, Brenda and Chuck all ran up to congratulate me. I just wanted to jump for joy. I did and in mid jump I suddenly felt incredibly hotter, and I saw that a small puddle of molten lava had erupted from my hands.

I really just said that.

Bad news: My prom which I worked for weeks on is ruined because I set off the sprinkler systems.

Worse news: My life is ruined because I am a mutant.

All the other kids in their soaking wet prom outfits weren't even paying attention to the sprinklers. They were looking at me. Nothing is worse for a teenage girl to be seen crying in front of so many people. And Chuck, I turned to him. Darn it Chuck, you've had this crush on me forever. Why did you have to stare at me as if I were from another planet? Couldn't you have given me the least amount of comfort?

Good thing I had my parents.

I ran out of the hotel. Signaled a cab, was home in five minutes. I woke my parents and gave them a long hug. I told them everything. It took a few seconds to take the information in and said, "Allison, no matter what, you are still our daughter and we love you."

I have a new appreciation for my parents, but still, WHAT NOW? I can't go back to that school. Is there a place for me in the world. God, WHY? WHY? WHY? WHY? WHY?
