Mirella

I woke up, laying in the rubble of a parking lot. I feel a sharp pain in my shoulder, but then I forget after I see Ell. Everything was fine after I saw her. I was so worried about her.......what is she wearing? I mean, I know it's Ell because I would recognize her face anywhere, but with what she was wearing, you would never guess.....wait, it matches what I'm wearing. Suddenly the memories of me and my newfound "powers" flooded my brain. Was I dreaming? I try to get up, but then I realize I'm tied in rope. "MIRELLA, YOU'RE AWAKE! IM SO HAPPY, I THOUGHT YOU MIGHT HAVE BENN IN A COMA OR SOMETHING!" Ell blurted out then ran over and untied my ropes. She flung me off the ground and right into her arms. I felt a warm, tingling feeling in my stomach, I've never gotten this feeling before, but I kinda like it. I hug her tighter. This weird figure, maybe a man(?) starts to get up, but even while facing behind, Ell somehow senses it and kicks his head and he falls to the ground. Now I'm definitely dreaming. Ell would NEVER do that to anyone. I get loose from the hug. I start pinching myself then I slap myself across the face. Ell looks at me like I have five heads. "I am definitely dreaming, I know that one, you would never dress like that, and two, you would never be that brutal to anyone." I explain. Ell's face turns bright red. Was it something I said? "People change you know! I'm sick and tired of being thought as the little whimp and the 'goody goody' for the life around us." She storms off and grabs the blank-faced woman standing not too far away from her and storms into the giant skyscraper. I couldn't find any words, but my instinct was to go and follow her.
