 Kiania Rosario, aka Storm "Olá! The name's Kiania, but you most likely know me better as Storm." "Ah, so you want to know my story? No, I don't mind sharing, but I'm afraid it isn't a very happy one. I was a poor, orphaned child, living on the streets, doing whatever she can to survive. My parents, you see, passed away while I was still young, caught in a fire that took both their lives. I was the only one who survived that day, but barely. I was trapped, in a burning building, with neither of my parents, or anybody else around. I thought for sure that it would be the end for me, but... I made it out. How? I'm not really sure. Maybe my powers might've had something to do with it, but I can't really tell you. All I remember from that moment was the roaring flames, the suffocating smoke, and a child, crying out for her parents who never came. To say I was "scared" would be putting it very lightly, and let's just say I might have a small problem dealing with anything fire related." "Yea, yea, I know how silly that sounds. How can a girl who can summon water and ice whenever she wants ever be nervous around fire? Well, let's just say that some things... aren't that easy to get over, and leave it at that." "Anyways, after that whole... experience, I didn't really have anybody left. I was alone. No family, no home, nothing, so I did what any kid would do in that situation; I stole. Money, food, various trinkets, you name it. I took whatever I could get my hands on just so I could keep on living, and I did it for years... until I stole from the wrong person." "I was careless. The person I was trying to pickpocket some money from caught me, and he wasn't happy about it. He wasn't happy about it at all. I started panicking, and, before I knew it, I held out my hands, and there was a strong gust of wind that blew the man away before he could do anything to me. That was the first time I remember my powers manifesting themselves. I had no idea how I did any of that- I wasn't aware of what a mutant was at the time- but I soon discovered that I was able to control the weather around me." "I think it was then that the people in my village started paying attention to me, but it wasn't the good kind of attention. I was called a devil child by them, and I was chased out by a mob that didn't want me around anymore. I was an outcast, a scared, confused girl that nobody wanted. "That was when I found them. A community of people, who were just like me, who also didn't have anywhere else to go. It was a small community, with only a few dozen people, but it was a close one. They welcomed me, and, for the first time in a long time, I felt like I truly belonged somewhere. They became like a family to me." "Do I miss them? Oh, of course I do. Hah! You should've seen the kinds of things I got into. They called me Storm because I was as wild and as untamed as a raging storm, but it didn't matter how much trouble I got into sometimes, they would always support me, and look out for me." "...But there was a time when I needed to move on. I owe them everything for what they did for me, but I can only stay in one place for so long. I wanted to see more of the world, experience life a little more, so, when I was offered a spot here at Xavier's Institute, I took it as fast as I could! I don't know where life is going to take me from here, but that's what makes it all the more exciting, don't you think? Maybe one day I'll go back to see the people who I've come to consider my family again, but for now, I plan to enjoy my time here as much as I can, and who knows, maybe I can actually make a difference while I'm here." quote:Kiania Rosario
