I close my eyes and sing to myself.

"I... I just want to be free
So we can equal, yes them and me
I wish that I could be normal.
Again, again.

Why was I born with these stupid powers
Why did it have to be me?
The most powerful girl in existence,
At least that's how it seems to be

Why couldn't it have been anyone else
Anyone else in the world
But It just had to me
And now I'm the most endangered on the universe

Why couldn't I be normal?
Why was it me?
Why could I be normal like the rest I see
Why do I have to have stupid powers
And endanger everyone I know
I know.

Why did it have to be me
Why couldn't it have been anyone else
Out of all the people I now see

Why it is me?
The only one in the whole world
The only one
What was I born with stupid powers
And now life's in danger
Why couldn't it have been someone else please please
Help me
Be free
I just want to be free
Finally
And not worry bout anything
And be free
And not be hunted down
And be free
And be normal
And be free
I wish I could be free, why was it me?"

I sigh. "Why was it me...." I whisper.
I walk to a tree, sit down, and fall asleep.

I wake up and the moon has come out. It's night and I can see bearly anything at all so I make light from my hand. "Where am I?" I ask myself as I step on dry leaves
"That's none of your concern, Emmalee." Suddenly everything goes black.
