Warrior of the Mighty One.
Lake limped away and reached a bridge after a while. The piece of concreted went over the triple lane highway. Cars were hurrying home, or somewhere, and some trucks were delivering their goods. Lake climbed up on the railing and sat down with a hiss. Her whole body was trembling and tears were rolling down her face.
"How did I end up like this?" She asked herself and sucked her teeth, trying to keep a sob from escaping.
Memories shot through her head. Going to the park with her parents, watching TV together, cooking with her mom and her dad showing her how to play the guitar. Watching her mother cheat on her father with another man, when the older woman thought Lake wasn't home. The court on who got to keep Lake, being ignore, the drugs, the beatings, the different times she got raped, the times she asked for it and the times she didn't. On top of that, there was also meeting the others, finding out she had powers, watching Cole cook, seeing how happy Aurora and Oliver were…
"You're not one of them." She told herself as she looked down. "Nobody needs you. Nobody wants you."
Gripping the edge of the bridge, Lake gritted her teeth and cried as she scooted a little closer to the edge. Why couldn't she just do it in one go?
