PIPER LITA SNAPPED HER FINGERS TOGETHER, AND A GLOWING ORB OF PURPLE LIGHTNING EMERGED FROM HER HAND. Her eyes were trained on the uneven static crackling off, and she focused on how it felt to hold the ball of energy in the palm of her hand. Closing her eyes, she moved her fingers, teetering it about. The forking ends of the tiny rays of purple lightning sent chills down her spine, and she felt the tips of her fingers buzzing. She squeezed her fist, letting a heavy breath of air out of her mouth, the brilliant hues fading into nothingness.

Her legs were crossed, and she sat with her back to the curved wall near the cell doors. The different compartments of her mind failed to work together, distracting the other and causing her thoughts to run wildly.
