"That zigzag shooting through my heart, that zigzag hit me like a dart... Electricity, keeps on hitting me"

She was on the balcony at her home, looking at the crowded streets of Paris but not really paying attention to anything else other than her own mind, many questions passing her by, asking if wether or not the discovery that she had done about herself was something that the world needed or should know in any way.
On a frustration tantrum after not being able to do something right, she had discovered she had magic powers. Those moments didn't happen very often as she is a very patient woman but it truly felt different at the time. However, how can a moment like that be strong enough as to create a lightning storm that covered the entire city for a few hours? That definately wasn't anything normal and neither was it to cause shortcircuits in most of the apartment's plugs or that things exploded out of energy overcharge so many times when she was around.
All those things began fitting on her head one by one like puzzle pieces until she decided to check if it was all coincidence, an illusion or reality. She took a fork from a cabinet and introduced it in the closest plug, you could see electrical energy overflowing from it so it was perfect for the experiment. The fork got burnt at the tips but, she only felt a tickle on her fingers, nothing serious. Confusion drowned her brain at that instant.
She put her elbows on the cold bars of the balcony and strongly massaged her temples in circles. For whoever had knowledge of this (which was only her girlfriend) it was sure that her power was unstoppable, as she barely had any hold of its reins. She only knew that if her ability was actually a thing, she would never use it as a bad thing or to hurt others.
A strong noise behind her broke her focus. She quickly turned around to find that her cat Lillia was cautiously smelling a very strange object. As she stood up got closed to it, she noticed it was something shaped like a crystal heart but it was silver with gold apliques.
It was a tiny box. When she opened it, a very intense multicolored light iluminated and blinded her face. She instinctively let it fall into the ground when backing away from the light, scaring the cat who threw herself into her owner's arms.
From the light, a fairy-like blonde and teal-eyed woman emerged. She cautiously kneeled in front of the girl and the cat, extending a hand towards them.The girl looked at the woman from head to toe asking herself what had happened. The whole thing was overall mentally confusing, it felt weird because it was something... weird. She definately wasn't expecting to find a fairy or whatever she was in her life, but she also felt comforting, which is something she needed the time her girlfriend wasn't with her.
She hesitantly offered back her hand, which was held by the magical woman, with all the care in the world.
-I want to welcome to your new life goddess...-
