Broken.

Humiliated.

Depressed.

These were the only emotions you have been accustomed to ever since your last two breakups; possibly the most devastating breakups of all.

About ten years ago, you were a normal college student...at least, that's what you made everyone believe. You harness abilities that most believe to be supernatural or unreal: telekinesis and telepathy. You could read others thoughts as well as move objects with your mind, but you would rather die than to let your secret get out. Your fear of letting the public know came from a very distasteful interview you watched on the news of numerous politicians vouching how evil and dangerous "mutants" are, and how they should be hunted down and locked up, if not killed. Due to this, you had to come to terms with your abilities on your own, instead of talking to your parents about it; which was your natural instinct. You loved your parents and your parents loved you, but your life could have been put on the line, and that's a risk you were not willing to take.

Around this time, you became infatuated with a boy in your class; Erik. He was so mysterious due to being the new kid and you found that very intriguing. You don't know how you did it, but you got him to take you out on a date. You two had a fun time together...until Prom came along. You bought the perfect dress along with matching shoes, got your hair styled, and received a manicure for the special occasion. You were extremely happy for your first and last Prom with the man you loved...or so you thought.

Once you and Erik made your way to the dance floor, you felt a little uncomfortable. That's when it all went down...

The DJ's equipment began to malfunction and float. Havoc ran a muck the party, and everything metal in the room was either destroyed or displaced. Some of your fellow classmates dispersed outside, but the other half were paralyzed in fear against the walls. You were beyond confused as to what had happened; you didn't do this, did you? Surely not, your powers were controlled and didn't include manipulating metal. Before your mind could wrapped around what happened, Erik let go and backed away from you. "Oh my god, she's one of them...She's a mutant!" Erik exclaimed in front of everyone. Your eyes widened and confusion struck your core.

After than night, you were thrown out of school and excommunicated from your church. You were forced to move away from your hometown before the police could hunt you down and take you away. Your heart was broken towards Erik's betrayal, and later on you found out why he did it; he wanted to hide the fact that he was a mutant too. In order to help hide his abilities, he used them to out another mutant...you may know him are Magneto, now.

You started a new life in New York as an actor on Broadway. You loved to dance, sing, and act so the world of theater came easy to you. You continued to control you powers, but sometimes it became too much. You couldn't control the mind reading aspect, and at times a crowd could be incredibly loud without saying a single word. During one of your performances, you ended up having a mental breakdown due to all the voices in your head, and had to quit your career. About two years later, you started to look into jobs where you weren't forced to be around too many people, so you decided to become a writer. You would sit at home with your laptop and type out stories all day.
