Scarlett wakes up before dawn, slightly disoriented. What the hell did that little devil do?! she asks herself. She looks around and is shocked: it went from humid to snowy overnight!
Meanwhile, Gabrielle arises a little more late. She creates a little pond in a solitary cave and uses it to see her reflection while she french-braids her hair and gives herself a pep-talk. Out of nowhere, Scarlett appears and smirks. “Well someone needs friends. Maybe then you’ll stop talking to yourself!”

“Why do you hate me? What did I do to you?” Gabrielle sighs.
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRzrh5G1OY
“Good morning to you, too, sweetheart.” Scarlett rolls her eyes. “Besides, my feelings towards a stranger has nothing to do with my hunger.”

Gabrielle gets a flashback: several bullies in middle school hurting her, torturing her, in so many ways. As she tries to push the thoughts out of her head, Scarlett reads those thoughts. “So let me get this straight: you’re mean because you were pushed around in middle school? Nice. Oh, and I spent all morning thinking of a nickname for you: Cindermermaid! Since you’re some mermaid-thing with your water crap and you have blonde hair and a blue outfit like Cinderella,” Scarlett smirks.

“I have no idea what you’re talking about,” Gabrielle denies.
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnA8ENrYn3N
“Sure you don’t. Apparently you haven’t gotten the memo yet. We,” Scarlett says, motioning to the both of them, “are equal,” she enunciates while making an equal sign with her arms. “I saw what you did in the water. I know you are different. Then I saw the ice. I put two and two together when you took off those gloves. So you. are. a. mutant. I know that already—”
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUzFIKyCVYv
“I GET IT! NOW LEAVE!”
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2cnchox6dr
Scarlett shakes her head. “Rule number one: you don’t interrupt me. As I was saying before you rudely cut me off, I am a psyro: half psychic, half pyro, which means fire. That’s how I know you were bullied. That’s how I found you. Are we on the same page?”
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZq1ytGExu
Gabrielle responds by blasting her with water, but Scarlett puts up a barrier just in time. “I knew you would do that,” Scarlett teases.
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv01kyGVvGR
“Just leave me alone!” Gabrielle’s distress causes rain and snow to fall.
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXRKrxLMip
Scarlett creates a stronger force field and gets inside of Gabrielle’s head. I know you can hear me. I’m in your head. Why are you doing this? What do you gain? Scarlett’s power is draining quickly, and her force field disappears, making her weaker by the second as the rain pounds on her, but she still has the strength to say one more thing to Gabrielle. If I go down, you’re coming with me, she says, causing a terribly strong pain in Gabrielle’s head.
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5gelF91oh
Gabrielle, clutching her head like a madwoman, decides to jump over a cliff to end it all, but Scarlett gets out of Gabrielle’s head and freezes her in place so that she can’t do anything at all.
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKiiHgjPhJ
“WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! I THOUGHT YOU HATE ME! LET ME DIE!” Gabrielle shrieks, growing more and more insane.
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0ltMak7e4
“What if I said… I might need you to survive?”
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvdet6g12wH
“Fine, but can you let me go?”
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKhMNQHAlF
“On one condition. You stop using your power against me!”
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYczAJP7oZT
The storm gets worse and Scarlett starts withering a little. She’s using so much power to keep Gabrielle in place that she doesn’t have enough to create a shield around her.
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvwdo3qduv
“I can’t stop this storm! I’m too stressed out!” Gabrielle shouts.
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQGnOOXBFl
“WELL STOP USING IT WHEN YOU’RE NOT STRESSED! LIKE WHEN YOU BLASTED ME WITH WATER YESTERDAY AND TODAY!”
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMscvdBaBD
“DEAL!”
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLmJ67SXoW
Scarlett gets overwhelmed, causing her to fall and Gabrielle crashes into the ground. “Ugh! I’m such a fool,” Gabrielle mutters to herself. “I was cursed with these powers. Why couldn’t I be born normal?” She flies up to where Scar is, and creates a fire for Scar to regain her strength, but at the same time, Gabrielle’s skin is blistering and bubbles are forming on her limbs.
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJS89uj5hY
“Stop that, princess. You’re hurting yourself,” Scarlett teases as she sits up.
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36pVGEOsmv
Gabrielle rolls her eyes. “You’re never too tired to be snarky, are you?”
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqD3BtDpB6
Scarlett grins. “My little blessing.” Scarlett crosses her leg, warming her hands over a smaller fire. “So what’s your real name, mermaid?
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7yuEFQJEgD
“Gabrielle. Yours?”
“Scarlett. But you can call me Scar, or freak. Whichever you like best.”
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnQaACt6wk
“Scar. You can call me Gab or Gabby or Snow Girl, or—”
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9a8TwhmKX1
“I get it,” Scarlett laughs. “Hm. I’m sticking with Snow White,” she says, sticking out her tongue. “So what’s your story?”
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5OFcGN6c5o
“Well, I was born with these powers, but I found out about them when I was three, and I always wear gloves to keep them hidden. I have two brothers and one sister in England. What about you?”
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsdwzzuXDFq
“Well not much similarity. When I was a little girl, I heard voices in my head without trying; I didn’t know how to stop it, and I thought it was something everyone could do. Every time my mother would think things like ‘This child is simply unmanageable!’ I’d ask her if she meant it. She freaked out after the 3rd time, realizing I’m not a normal human, and sent me to some lab to be tested on. Ever since then I’ve been on my own, after escaping. No siblings that I know of, no parents that I remember, and no friends that exist.”
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIHP9mXVANQ
“I'm sorry. My parents died in a plane crash on their way home and ever since then I shout at people because I'm scared they’ll get hurt because of me…”
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGsWjqnGVx
“Don’t be sorry or I’ll hurt you. I hate pity.” Scarlett gives her a hard look.
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5Jd0zeAXr
Gabrielle puts her hands up in surrender. “Okay, I get it.” She gets up, grabbing her bow and arrow.
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdn0509z0o9
“Good thing you’re taking that. I’m hungry,” Scarlett chirps. “So I’ve noticed you’ve had a hard time heating things up. Sure, you can start a fire, but it usually extinguishes soon. Either that or small blisters form on your hands. So here’s a deal: you bring me food, and I’ll cook your food without you getting hurt. How’s that?”
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMfMLFm8d5
“Deal. It doesn’t really hurt much, but it’s better I don’t have blisters on my hands. Anyways, I’m off.” She runs to a nearby pond and catches two fish in no time.
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGW3OBE0i6
“I’m back,” Gabrielle says.
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzEn2p4JFQr
Scarlett looks up. “Toss me a fish.”
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4JEdRxXOC
After tossing her a fish, Gabrielle dictates, “Ii did my part; now you do yours.”
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafdc7ZgsL6
Scarlett chuckles. “Easy there, Snow White. I’m not a miracle maker.” She pulls out a knife. “I made it while waiting for your slow self. Do you even know how to scale a fish? Or are you too high-class?” She starts scaling a fish, cutting off its head and tail off, too.
“Listen Scar, if you want me to get you food, I suggest you start being nice to me or you won’t be getting any more food, okay?” Gabrielle says annoyed.
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg21nGbFqAU
“And you’ll be eating raw fish, because not only can I create fire, but I can absorb all heat from a specific area. So I could absorb your fire, leaving you to eat raw and sickening fish. So I suggest you keep the threats to a minimum, ‘kay? Kay.”
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWfLedw33D
Gabrielle walks away, determined to abandon Scarlett. “Enjoy your fish,” she mutters.
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUDFROgDSg
Scarlett, getting irritated, freezes Gabrielle in place psychically. “Think you’re gonna survive on your own?” She laughs mockingly. “Have fun.” She releases Gabrielle and teleports away. A few minutes pass and Scarlett senses movement, but she ignores it and starts cooking her fish. That girl is freaking bipolar, I tell you, she mumbles. Again, she senses swift movement behind her. When she turns around, she sees a beast running full-speed towards her. She screams as loud as she can and teleports to random a place. Panting hard, she looks around and sees Gabrielle nearby, and she grumbles.
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd007ULVYoP
Gabrielle salivates as she chops the fruits she collected and makes a fruit salad. Out of nowhere, the beast jumps from behind a tree, aiming for Gabrielle, but she reacts quickly and freezes its heart, guaranteeing its death. Scarlett comes out of hiding and claps sarcastically as she approaches Gabrielle. “Well done, Snow White. I see you’ve been somewhat trained before.”
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7Ygzlg7Lu
“What’s your deal with me, huh? What do you have against me? Why do you hate me? I don’t understand! I try to be nice to you and help you survive, but you just keep ruining it!”
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSBQmBD3RrN
“Okay, princess. I don’t know where you’re from, but let me tell you something about human relationships: knocking a person unconscious twice in two days is not nice. It’s—”
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhv6wFXRx1Z
“You caused me to lose control, okay?! And do you think I’m stupid or something? Just because I’m a blonde doesn’t mean that I’m not smart. Who made a bow and arrow out of rocks and a stick? Who caught a fish for you to survive? Who killed the beast? Who made the shelter? Thats right, I did! I don’t see you trying to make something to catch a fish or to kill any threats! You just ran away like the scared, little girl you are!”
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6DbaU7DY52
“Oh, go ahead and self-praise yourself, you spoiled brat. You think I couldn’t save my ass if I wanted to?” Scarlett says, clapping sarcastically again. “Yay that you can make a flimsy bow. Yay that you can catch fish. I could catch bigger animals if I wanted to! So don’t—”
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJd6IjR1hB9
“I dare you to do it.”
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEcVYA2jq5
“Hide behind a dare, princess. You’re on. I’ll show you that you aren’t no almighty. My dinner will be a banquet. And you’ll be eating a few fruits. How’s that sound?”
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kV4tyiUG3
“Fine by me. Now leave.”
979Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3VmhkQTQBH
“Don’t worry. Oh, and by the way, I can see why nobody wanted to be around you in middle school.” With that, Scarlett disappears.
