So, MARVEL AT THE FLAVOR I MADE FOR A CHARACTER THAT I NEVER EVEN GOT TO PLAY:

Kendrick was never a stand out. He was always somewhere in between. Not good enough for recognition, but not bad enough for everyone to be noticeably bad. Sure, when he’d play sports, he’d miss a few times, and on tests, he’d always get low 70s. It was nothing to complain about. But it was nothing to fawn over either. All he wanted was to be noticed for ONCE in his life. One day, he made a wish upon a star that would change his life forever.

The effects didn’t get noticed by anyone until a good week later, as per wishing with stars. You never got what you wanted in any sort of timely fashion, and always when you had forgotten about the wish. But it was a sunny day in early June, on a Tuesday, while on the school bus on the way home. It started off normally. A few kids were throwing around paper airplanes, others were texting, and Kendrick was sitting by himself in the middle of the bus, like always. At first, it only felt like a fever. His head was warm, and he started to feel a bit off. But slowly, on the way home, he noticed a pain throughout his whole body. At first, it was his stomach feeling like it was in knots. Then, his legs ached like he had just run a marathon. It spread, and eventually his whole body was in some sort of pain. He dared not do anything until the bus pulled up at his stop, when he quietly got out with a few other people.

On the quiet walk home by himself, he decided to see what was up. He ran into the bush, taking the shortcut home. The bush seemed greener than it ever had before, and it hadn’t rained for a few days. A lone puddle appeared in front of him, with the color blue that he had not seen since a few years ago at his grandpa’s camp. And not only that, it seemed like the vines on the fences on either side of him were following him. He ran like fire being pushed by the wind. Obstacles were nothing, as he jumped over them like a leaf caught in gale force winds. By the time he got home, he was amazed at himself for being able to attempt such feats successfully. He spent the rest of the day outside, and called in sick from school for the next week. He’d go back to that path every chance he could, and work on his new found abilities. It slowly occurred to him, that not only did he get the power of nature, but he got the abilities of combined forces on nature. A few days in, he mastered moving the Earth and moving anything on it. By the end of the week, he had also figured out how to start a fire and how to stop it.

But with new powers come new responsibility. Would Kendrick take the path of good, or evil? Would he forge out a path for himself, or be the hero and save the day? All of this was to be discovered in the lnog road ahead.
