Back To Her Roots

Chapter 1

Here she was again flying high in the skies above Bellwood, her home for the time being. Her glowing pink hair flowed behind her as she did a series of flips and free falling but caught herself and went up higher above the clouds. A bag was slung over her shoulder as she made a small platform above the clouds for her feet. She looked over the night sky with a small smile on her face.

Something about this mundane task makes her at peace with where she is at the moment. On Earth again. The last time she was here her Grandmother Verdona made her go back to Anodyne to protect her little angel and she broke up with Antonio shortly after that. Minimal loss to her expense.

She'll just find someone else to mess with in due time.

For now she enjoys her time in the moonlight as she hopped off the platform and flew higher than she ever did, while on Earth, making her way outside the stratosphere. She let out a cold breath of air when she reached space. It wasn't cold but warm to her.

She felt at peace. Feeling her home, Anodyne, far away. She reached out a hand as if to touch it but an image Verdona flashed before her eyes as she pulled back. Her chest tightens at the thought of not seeing her home again. She lowered herself and began free falling from space, her glowing pinks eyes looking away from where she could feel her home

Her body doesn't heat up nor does her bag lit on fire. It takes about a few seconds before she turns around facing the earth then shoots back towards Bellwood making sure to not leak out her mana as she did.

She touched the pavement of the road leading towards her flat which was at the edge of Bellwood near the entrance of Undertown. A perfect place for her.

Her Anodite form fades away leaving her in a long sleeved black hoodie, dark blue torn jeans, dark blue sneakers. Her eyes return to their magenta colour as her hair flows down her back in their natural dark colour along with a streak of purple hair. She pulled her glasses from her pocket and placed them on her face.

Sunny placed her hood up and began walking to her flat in the cold night but again, it didn't bother her. The temperatures on Earth are laughed at best for someone who's been in a lot colder and hotter places.

She began walking, adjusting her bag over her shoulder, as she made her way back 'home'. She closed her eyes for a moment sensing the mana of everyone in Bellwood, an easy task but she had to make sure they weren't following. After a moment she opened her eyes and continued walking until she was back.

Her apartment wasn't anything to go by. A one bedroom with a bathroom, a living room and a small kitchen is what greeted her. She threw her bag onto the kitchen counter and made her way to the bedroom falling onto the soft mattress as her magenta eyes looked up at the ceiling.

Another day passes by. Another day of being stuck here on Earth. She breathes out a sigh either out of relief or something else, she doesn't know. She's only been back for a month. Talks with her Grandfather didn't go as planned or anything she planned out didn't go as they should. Short version: She got herself a place to sleep, some food and television so long as she doesn't bother the Plumbers or her Grandfather. Ben doesn't know she's here, thankfully he was out saving the world. Gwendolyn was far off into College so she doesn't know she's here, unless she sensed her mana went arriving on Earth which complicates things.

But nonetheless here she was, day 35 and counting. She let out a frustrated breath.

Why Earth?

Was all she asked when Verdona left her at the Plumbers HQ in Max's office. To say the elderly man was happy to see her was an understatement. He was livid at first but then Verdona 'explained' Sunny's punishment to him. To think they were once married and now they were bickering as if it was nothing new. In the end Verdona vanished leaving Max with her which in turn made him give her a place to stay for the time being.
