Chapter 1:

Ororo sat on the roof of the mansion, tears steadily flowing down her cheeks. A steady rain fell from the sky, most likely caused by her. This was the only time she could embrace her sorrow and pain, this was the only time she'd let herself embrace it. She did this almost every night. She wasn't sure how long she'd been doing this. But this small ritual, was the only thing that allowed her to keep going. During the day she managed to hide away all her pain. But it was all an act! It hurt her so much, that the people she called her friends couldn't see it!

Thunder rumbled in the distance, and the wind picked up. Usually all she did when she went up there was cry. It didn't even rain usually. But tonight was different, tonight she was angry! She knew why, but she didn't want to acknowledge why. She was angry because no one cared!

If the storm woke anyone up, they would obviously know she was causing it. She built up her anger and used it to fuel the storm. She wanted them to know it was her, she wanted them to care! The rain beat down hard, stinging her delicate face. But she didn't notice.

She stood up and walked along the roof top. Lighting struck the ground, not far from the mansion. 'Storm what's going on?' the professor asked her telepathically. She pushed him out of her head and walked to the edge of the roof. She looked down. She was about four stories up.

She couldn't take it anymore! No more pretending! No more miss goody two shoes! No more Storm! She stepped off of the roof and fell to the ground.

As soon as she hit the ground, the storm ceased.
