[center][b]Sue[/b][/center] [quote=knight125] Bruce shakes his head as he replies, "No. The damage to the building has nothing to do with it. I'm here because of the recklessness you showed in regard to the safety and well-being of your classmates. I've already met with a number of staff members and your father to decide whether or not to expel you. However, I think it's only fair if I allow you to defend yourself. Why do you think I should let you remain at the Academy?" [/quote] Sue thought hard on how to defend herself. In fact, she didn’t think they could do much to help her, not when she was so powerful but so volatile. She breathed heavily, her heart raced, her hands gripped hard and her tears flowed faster. Her dad brought her here in the hopes that one day she could control her powers. She wanted her passive ability to become an active one that she could control, as they always pointed it out to her whenever she queried. She didn’t want this life because she was scared of what she could do. She tried to think of reasons why she should stay when there was nothing for them to do about her passive ability. She wished her dad was right there, next to her to help. She was always a supportive figure that cheered for Sue all the way with the multitude of hobbies and interests that she fostered. Even if there were other bigger, stronger superheroes compared to Banshee, he will always be Sue’s number one. Then she remembered what Iron Fist said: her emotions could control the amplification of sound. Perhaps it wasn’t just a matter of her power, but about her ability. No, it was about her heart of becoming a hero. Whenever Sue used her powers, it was either she was scared of what damage she was going to do or she was happy and alive when she was fighting Mimic. Sue looked up to Batman, and signed: [i]”I should stay because I want to be better. I was either too scared or too lost in the usage of my power. I realize now that I do not truly know the extent of my ability, but I would like, no, I need to be able to master it. You, of all people, should know that a superhero is not measured by their power and capabilities, but their heart and sheer will to protect and serve. My power is passive, but my will is active. I can learn to control myself in using my power. If my dad put me here believing I could be better, then please help me to be better. I promise I will be better. For me and everyone.”[/i] ending it with a smile
