𝗶𝗻 𝘄𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗵 ━ a woman, always painted
as the villain, tries her hardest to
show a cruel world her good intention...
THE LINGERING SUN WAS OBLITERATED BY THE rapidly falling nightsky. The once soft pink and warm orange hues transformed into the vast expanse of jet-black ink that engulfed the little town Maggie lived in. A canopy of luminous stars materialised among the ocean of blackness. Some were dull, just barely flickering into existence while other shone lustrously.
Even after the first time Maggie discovered her abilities, the brunette woman refused to let her spirits down at first. She would not be a dull star hiding while she could produce such a beautiful light. She wanted to show the world she was one of the good guys, but sadly they never saw that. And the utter terror in their eyes slowly chippered away on her heart until there was nothing left to share. The lushful and youthful garden of her childhood had whitered away with each petrified look until only dead flowers remained within. They only saw what they did not understand. She had given up on her childish dreams, forced to face reality far too quickly after they were run out of their home.
She was glad for her parents, she truly was. They never onced abandoned her. They were always behind her, defending her from judgemental looks. They never strayed away from her. But even they could see that their daughter was never the same, and in a way that changed them too. They couldn't be fully happy because they had to witness their only daughter be rejected by society.
Sadly wherever Maggie went chaos ensued one way or another in her younger years. At that time she still believed her 'superpowers' as she liked to call them, were a gift. A sign she would be a hero one day too.
They never could stay in one place for more than a couple months. People would find out, they would act out of fear and Maggie's life would once again be uprooted. A part of herself staying back too.
It was hard for her parents too, they didn't like to see their daughter sad, so they would always put up a brave face but the brunette could see it. They were not meant for a life on the road and it was taking a toll on them. So when Maggie reached the age of eigtheen she made a decision. She left in the middle of the night, leaving a note to promise her parents she would be okay but that she needed to find her own path. A path that could not only convince the world she was good, but herself too.
So by time, Maggie Hendrix slowly used her gift les and less until it was like she never even possesed the ability to control water. She was okay with hiding her true self for now if it meant that people accepted her.
