THE LIGHTNING LADY
As a teen, Bianca Jackson Grace was a very special girl for she had special powers that she was gifted with. She was presently a 14 year old who liked things any other teen girl would like (sorry, I'm out of trends these days) but most of all, she preferred fighting crimes and restoring justice. She remembered the day she got her powers when she was in her mission to find a cyber thief who stole a top secret micro chip from the National Defense and Research organization of Seattle.

All depending on how we use them of course. Every superhero film and comic book strip heavily dictates that the power you possess, whatever it may be is a ‘gift’, and that using it to fight against evil and believe in all things good will most definitely get you the girl or boy, that good always defeats evil no matter the odds and that using this power for all those things will empower you as a person - what ...
