A new day - a new life. The Blunette could still scarcely believe what happened to her yesterday. It happened, right? She slipped on a jump, fell down three or so storeys onto concrete, and was saved by a literal god and chosen to fight in an epic war of divine powers that was coming to Earth's doorstep.

[i][color=00aeef]Suuuuuuuuure, I'm totally right in the head![/color][/i]

Still, she could hardly deny that the world just felt different. She felt the healthiest in years, like she could take on a 10 kilometer jog and barely break a sweat. The most minute details she might normally never notice screamed for her attention. [color=00aeef][i]Was everyone always moving so slowly?[/i][/color] she found herself asking, as she dodged and weaved out of the others' way as she made up her way to the classroom. Well, if she truly had divine powers of lightning now, she will not need to worry about charging her phone ever again at least.

Still, the powers she was supposedly bestowed eluded her, or at least eluded her command. Yesterday, after her accident, she tried to will them forth, only to find out she had no idea how. Instead, she got jump scared by a bunch of kids running right at her form behind a corner, and a transformer on the pole at the end of the street sparked and went up in flames, sinking an entire street into the dark. [color=00aeef][i]Whoops.[/i][/color]

Afterwards, she decided to sleep on it, and that was how she woke up the most refreshed ever and able to perceive and move faster than anyone else she knew, which included the track team. On her way here, she trialled herself against the bus and was able to keep up with it until the stop two blocks over, when she gave up because she did not want to show up sweaty and stinky to school.

[color=00aeef][i]Maybe I should just wait? If this happened after one night, perhaps I should just sleep on it some more[/i][/color], she thought as she found the door to her class and took her seat. [color=00aeef][i]Still, Zeus... okay, still weird... HONEST TO THEMSELVES ZEUS asked me to find others like me. Which means...[/i][/color] Nike spent a solid couple of minutes thinking about what she was told to do, coming out empty. [color=00aeef][i]Aaaaargh! Must deities be so damn cryptic all of the time? Do I find others near death? ?Others worthy of being protectors? Others who already are protectors? Guh![/i][/color] she hit her desk with a balled fist, frustrated.

Looking at the clock, she found out she still had some time, having gotten to school about twice as fast as she normally would. The sprint earlier left her a bit parched, so she got up and walked down the hallway to the vending machine, desiring a soda. She looked towards the entrance of the school and that'S when she felt it. A cold shiver running down her spine.

[color=00aeef]A[i] titan's power.[/i][/color] said a voice in her head. How did she know? What even did that mean? She needed to brush up on her ancient mythology if she was going to do this, history was never her strong suit. Weren't titans the bad gods? Though, maybe not all of them? Shaking a peak out of the window, she spotted Sa'Cha and Mark walking down the road. Perhaps she felt one of them? [color=00aeef][i]Or, you crazy grunt, you might have felt someone behind the wall walking down the street. How am I supposed to tell? I'm certainly not going to go out and make a fool of myself asking the two of them if they had a near-death encounter with an ancient god who bestowed magic onto them and asked them to protect the world. No sire.[/i][/color] she perished the thought, walking back to get her soda and hauled her ass to class. If she was not mistaken, Sa'Cha had the same class, so maybe she could gleam something else by it's end.
