I Am The Storm Woman 소설 & 이야기

“You’re the storm. You break things that need breaking.” Her words slammed into my chest. I wasn’t the goddess’s shadow. I wasn’t her mistake. I wasn’t her weapon gone rogue. I was the one thing she couldn’t control. I lifted my chin, locking my gaze with the water-goddess towering before us. My storm rose in a spiral around me, responding not to fear but to purpose. “Get out of my head,” I growled. The lightning inside me ignited into a second pulse, stronger than anything I’d ever felt. It surged upward, blasting into the sky and striking the waves with a violent shudder.

The neighborhood lay in ruins, with rubble and dust drifting in the air. I furrowed my brows, my OCD pushing me to walk away. Just then, a hunched, filthy woman came in my way. She was wrapped in a filthy down jacket, its original color long buried beneath layers of grime. She clutched a handful of empty plastic bottles, her eyes vacant and glassy. “M-Ms. Bray?” She spoke, her voice raspy and scratchy. I stopped in my tracks and looked at her from a distance. It took a while for me to scan her bloated and wrinkly face before I recognized her to be the once arrogant Little Miss Sunshine.

From this woman. The one who had been through the fire. The one who had found herself in it. The one who had written herself down. The one who had put her name on it. The one who was standing at the kitchen window in June morning light in the ordinary extraordinary life that was hers, completely and finally and without apology, hers. The one who had stayed. Not because she had to. Because she had chosen to. Every day. In every place. As herself. She pressed send. Set the phone on the table.

Because the world didn’t know it yet—but the woman beside me wasn’t just a survivor. She was the storm. And now, she had everything to fight for.

"It is nice that you think I'm asking you for permission. Noah, I'm telling you that I am going to participate in the Luna events." "Storm, I don't think it's a good idea that you do this. It's very dangerous, you could lose your life. These women fight dirty. I don't want anything to happen to you. I won't let anything happen to you." I held her hand tightly. " Noah, that's sweet but I'm still going to participate." " You have no training, most of these Lunas have been training since they were teenagers, you won't stand a chance against them." Storm looked taken aback and hurt. I immediately regretted my words.

She tried to calm me down while gently pushing my shoulder to make me lie back down. I brushed her off. “Who are you?” I demanded as I tried avoiding her touch. “And where am I?” I looked around me. All the furniture in this place - the bed, the chair, the side table, and even the medicine tray - were all standardized human designs. Nothing was hovering, there were no drones, and they were using plastic! Clearly, this isn’t Atlantis. “Byron.” I whispered. “Skyr? Trei?” I started to yell out.

“You need a break, sweetheart. Not just the kids but everything. Honestly, an hour or two isn’t enough, but it is a start.” “Max.” she smiled, “I mean, of course, thank you, but I really am fine.” “Sweetheart, no, you aren’t. you have jumped from being by yourself with a semi-normal family to having everything normal ripped away to also being with me and having two kids to raise.” Max said softly as he pulled into the parking lot, “That is a lot for anyone to have to deal with but add to the fact the storm is really just beginning, and you are going to be caught in the middle of it. You haven’t had the proper time to deal with everything.”
