The 9 Mystiques

My series of stories evolve around 9 mythical and powerful beings popularly known to their kind as the Mystique generally because they were the best. I’ll start on the day of the Storms. The last day of the year where every side of the earth had a major storm according to what season they are experiencing and that’s were Electra Storm comes in. She(as everyone sees her) is the guardian of the rain and this was the night for her and her siblings to shine, for it was the night they were to create incredible storms without the help of their assistant animals (Mythicas). She breathed a nervous sigh and said to herself,  “ok, no big deal. I’m the best at this. No pressure.” Electra was currently standing on a cloud over Africa. Starting from North to south as soon as the sun went down she began making it rain. Midway, as it was their habit(the Mystiques) to wear headphones while apart,  her friend (another Mystique ) Tune screeched, “Hey guys!!!!,” into her ear.  Electra was so startled that slipped from her cloud and fell down, all the way to the ground. Fortunately,  Electra controlled water, so it caught her just in time. With her feet safely on the ground in a derset. She muttered angrily,  “When I’m done with this, Tune is so gonna get it.”She gathered a cloud beneath her and gently rose into the sky. At her first overview glance of the earth, she noticed something different. The whole continent was dark. Trying to feel the electrical   currents of the planet she discovered that the whole of earth had no electricity. ‘This is bad. But how did….?’Electra thought then a voice in the clouds answered, ‘Who else except you Electra.’ “Me ?But I didn’t …..” The voice giggled softly, It was Electra’s mother whom she only knows by her voice. “Don’t worry, its reversible. You caused it when you were startled. Just cast a lightning bolt, strong enough to power everything again. ” Electra was relieved but then worried saying, “Isn’t it against the rule for you to tell me what to do?” “Yes it is. Bug I’m just a voice in your head and that’s not against the rules.” Electra thought for a sec then just said ,”Hmm, if you say it like that then ok.” Doing as her mom said , she fixed the mess and continued her storm, ending it at the stroke of midnight. She was the last one to make a storm cause of time difference. Exhausted from the electricity thing , Electra went straight to bed at her mansion in a city way up in the clouds called Isla. Aqua, Electra’s mythic assistant animal(a blue scaled dragon), asked, “So how did it go ?” Taking off her hood , which she always wore over her short spiraled hair, Electra slammed onto the bed, “Very tiring. ” she replied. Not willing to ask any more questions, Aqua dozed off beside her owner. Next morning, Aqua was the one who woke up Electra.             “Morning Electra. Are gonna sleep all day. ” “I would if you could let me.”replied Electra. For someone 6000 years old, she acted 15. Maybe it was because she looked 15. Right then her sister entered her room. Electra had 2 siblings (they were triplets )Whitney and Blaze. Whitney looked at Electra and said, “Good you’re up. Come down to  the hall as soon as you can. “With that she went out. Whitney Storm is the eldest of the triplets and the Guardian of Winter and her attitude is just as cold. Aqua and Electra prepared to go down and when they finally did were met by all their friends (the Mystiques and their Mythicas) The first thing Electra said as the saw them was “Tune! Why In earth’s name would you screech in my ear like that last night?!”     Tune replied, “ Sorry but a bit of excitement never hurt anyone has it?” Electra totally fused up “You startled me and I caused a blackout on the whole planet. ”                                    “Ohh that’s what caused it. Look  I’m sorry and I promise to make it up to you but you gotta hear what we’re hear for. I guarantee  you’ll be surprised. ”
