DC7
Lightning Lad's point of view
DC7
I woke up to the annoying sound of an alarm clock. "Die..." I said sleepily as I shot the clock to the other side of the room with a lightning bolt. I drifted back into my peaceful sleep before someone started pounding on my door. "Lightning lad! You better not be braking alarm clocks again! That's the sixth one we've bought for you!" Phantom girl hollered, phasing into my room. I groaned at the thought of her pestering me...again.
She gasped and said in anger, "You broke it lazy bones! Get up! And get a shirt on." She shoved me out of my bed and onto the cold, hard floor. I screamed back at her, "Yeah, whatever!" She phased through the door saying something about me not pulling my own weight. I pull my weight plenty, just not in the morning. I stood up and pulled the curtains open. I smirked as an idea formed in my mind.

I tiptoed into Shadows room to see her sleeping peacefully, it was ten o'clock, and I figured she needed a wake up call. I snuck over to the curtains and yanked them open screaming, "HELLO SUNSHINE!" She groaned and threw a pillow at my head. "Say hello to the Earth!" I shook her lightly. "Say hello to my fist." She shot back tiredly and attempted to punch me with no avail.
"Come on, it's seriously is time to get up." I said sitting on the edge of her bed. "I guess you're right." She sat up and rubbed her eyes. "I had a dream about my past." She said, still a little sleepy. "What about?" I asked opening up her closet and throwing her the uniform she wears every day. A black long sleeve shirt, a black skirt that went up to her mid thigh, and black boots that went up to her knees. She doesn't like colors very much, though I did see her wear a bright pink dress when she lost a bet.
"When I got my powers from this old lady." She answered, "Oh, that sounds interesting." I said sarcastically. "Well if you were there you would think differently, Sparky." She playfully hit my back and went into her personal bathroom. I sat near the door and asked, "Have you ever thought of wearing colors?" "Phantom girl and I have the same philosophy. Colors are not needed." She said matter-of-factly.
"Yeah, but Phantom girl wears white too." I said remembering the cold hard floor that she introduced me to. She stepped out of the bathroom and asked, "How do I look?" "Good enough to kiss." I said leaning in on her for a kiss. A pink tint went over her cheeks as she kissed me back. "Thanks for waking me up." She said giving me a tight hug. I hugged her back and kissed her for-head and said, "C'mon, let's eat breakfast. I'm starving." "You're always starving."

We entered the dinning room where we were greeted by Timber wolf, Phantom girl, Brainy, Bouncy, and the Trips. "Hi guys." Shadow said merrily taking the orange juice out of the fridge. "Hi, Shady." They answered tiredly. "Your buying another clock." Phantom girl said to me, giving me a stink eye. "Okay fine! I will! Picky, picky, picky." I said looking for some edible cereal.
"If I were you, I wouldn't touch the Crunchy O's." Timber wolf said as I was about to pick it up. "Why not?" I asked pouring some into my bowl. I took a bite of it and it seemed normal to me. "I found a rat in there last night." He said, everyone was looking at me as if I had just sprouted another arm out of my side.
A rat...had been...in...my...cereal..I felt my stomach churn as I thought of the rat scurrying around. "I don't feel so..." I was interrupted by an eruption coming from my stomach. Then, like a volcano, my stomach contents spilled onto the floor. Everyone groaned and backed up. "TIMBER WOLF! WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME THAT BEFORE I ATE IT?!" I screamed at the teenage werewolf. "I did!" He said giving me a look that said, I'm right, you're wrong. I felt my face turn red in anger before my angel in black stepped in front of Timber wolf.
"Lightning lad, it's okay. The mess is already cleaned up from Brainy's robotic cleaners. Just let it go." Shadow said, I let out a frustrated grunt, threw my hands into the air and left the room.

I stood in the Training room, improving my shot by shooting Lightning bolts at targets all over the room. I stopped for a moment and heard someone open the door. Timber wolf stepped in the room and leaned on the wall to the left of him. "Well?" I asked still angry, "Sorry." "Yeah...okay." I said finnaly letting the whole rat predicament away.
"We're going over to the Sim. Room if you want to come along." "Sure." I said walking with him. "I heard you got busted for breaking an alarm clock." "Yeah, Phantom girl shows no mercy." I said laughing a bit. "Garth, can I ask you something?" Timber wolf asked looking away from me. "Yeah..um..sure." I said not quite knowing what the question would be. "I like this girl...but...I don't know if she likes me. I mean we're friends, no doubt, but..." he trailed off.
"Who's the girl?" I asked smirking. "If you tell anyone I'll hurt you." "Fine, fine. I won't tell anyone." "I like...Tinya."
