Story of my Life

So, in high school I wrote the story of my birth for a friend of mine, and she passed it around our class. Would you like to read it?

Once upon a time, two storms struck. The first was a natural storm. The second was a difficult birth. Just as the baby girl drew her first breath, lightning struck the house, giving her super powers. Over time, these powers were made known to her parents. The first that was shown was her ability to turn anything, even living things, the color purple. Her second ability was an attachment to elephants, and the elephant from the nearest zoo turned purple and kept escaping her habitat to be with the unusual baby.

The girl had many more gifts that became evident over time, but she had one very special ability that she kept secret. This super power was that she could hear the thoughts and of the people and animals around her. The very idea that she could keep such a thing a secret excited her, and she used it to help the police anonymously. She thought of herself as a superhero, so she decided to make her own costume and officially fight in the name of justice.

Unfortunately, since everyone already knew she had super powers, she couldn't keep her identity a secret. And it didn't help that she took her pet purple elephant into battle with her.

And that was where it ended, probably because class ended or something (I wrote this during one of our classes that the teacher wasn't having us do anything in). I feel I should point out that every detail is true, but alas, it is not. The elephant attachment was for my friend, who is obsessed with elephants.

In actuality, the elephants are replaced by lions. Yep.

Haha, anyways, it was a fun thing to do, even if the writing is a bit sub-par and I didn't have much brainstorm time. Hope you enjoyed. ;D
