Growing up is hard. Growing up in an environment where everyone anywhere close to your age treats you like a leper, that''''s much harder. With no friends, apathetic teachers, and a mother that needs to work three jobs just to keep enough food on the table, she''''s grown up with no one to talk to but the adults.Well, the adults and her imaginary friends.For as long as she can remember Hairy, the Anthropomorphic Highland Ox, Angelica, the Jellyfish, and Tyberius, the metallic Centipede...thing, have been her only true companions. Which is a little awkward, since she''''s almost sixteen and people tend to react weirdly when they know you still talk to imaginary friends at that age.As rough as her life is, it could always be worse. She could be an Empowered. Thirty years ago, when a physics experiment went wrong, reality ripped open and a new type of particle was introduced to the world. The upside? Some of the people that were exposed to it developed a variety of superpowers. The downside? Anyone affected had a chance of becoming unstable and ripping open another hole in reality, and it turns out there are a lot of other beings out in multiverse, and many of them don''''t appreciate being disrupted.Having to live every day knowing it might be your last? Now that would be hard. Good thing she doesn''''t have that problem. Right?
