We then left the office and he led us to an elevator. We got inside and the elevator started to go down and kept going down for quite a while.

"We are going to the powers testing area now. It is deep underground mostly because the structure was already here. This used to be one of my laboratories and holdouts during my super-villain days and I converted it to it's current purposes."

"Are you saying that this used to be a super-villain base? How deep are we going?"

"Yes, that's pretty much what it was and we are going down about a mile underground."

"Why is it so deep?"

"Well... The thing is that I was extremely paranoid when I was dricking and I built it during my dricking episodes. You can't imagine how many traps against intruders I placed."

"But it is safe now, right?" I asked starting to feel worried.

"Yes it is completely safe. I removed all the traps.... I think."

Oh shit.

When the elevator finally stopped, the door opened and what I saw surprised me. I wasn't sure what to expect but I wasn't expecting this. The place looked completely normal. It looked like a waiting room like the one you would see anywhere other than the lack of windows.

I followed him into an area that looked like a gym, he grabbed something that looked like a very small black leotard and told me to put it on.

“What is this?” I asked

“It is an elastic catsuit that has several tiny sensors embedded that I designed and built.” The doctor said proudly.

“It's too small.”

“Don't worry about it. The material is extremely elastic and will fit perfectly.”

“Are you sure?" I asked looking at the offending garment that looked like it wouldn't fit a 10 year old.

" Yes I'm sure. I it's one size fits all. "

“And don't forget to disrobe completely before putting on the catsuit.”

“You mean I need to put this on naked? Why?”

“So that the sensors can pick up all the necessary information, any clothing would just interfere with them.”

"You don't expect me to change here, do you?"

"Oh, sorry. The door on the right is a changing room, you can change there."

What could I do? I went to the locker room next to the gym area, disrobed and put on the darned thing, at least it wasn't pink. It was completely black. The suit covered from my feet up till my neck, it had even gloves. Yes, it covered every inch of skin bellow my chin, what made me feel relieved to not be showing much skin as I wasn't ready for that just yet. Of course that as soon as I looked at the mirror all the relief I felt was washed away and replaced by a sense of dread. The suit did cover everything but at the same time it hugged every curve I had and made the twin mounds on my chest look bigger than they are (no, I’m not ready to call them by their proper name yet), making me look hot, too hot, in a catwoman hot way, and the worst thing is that it was so comfortable that it almost felt like I was naked. so yeah, I was not a happy camper. 'Now I see why the doctor was proud of having designed this, he is a pervert.'

I was about to leave the room when I decided to take one last look at the mirror.

'Damn, this thing makes me feel more naked than naked.'

'Too bad it is so black, if it had some pink and some gold details it would look cute.'

'Did I just think that?'

'Hummm... Hello?' Can you hear me?

'No, no, no, no, no! I'm not hearing voices. I refuse to hear voices saying something would look cute on me with pink in it.'

'You can hear me? Oh my gosh! Finally! (I could swear I felt a mental girly jumping up and down.)

“W..who are you? Where are you?”

'You can call me Mary Sue and I am inside you, silly. I am a spirit I think.'

“Mary Sue? Are you kidding me? What kind of name is that for a spirit?”

'It is my name and I like it, okay? I think it is very cute. I wouldn't change it just because I died, okay?'

'God I’m going insane here. Now I’m hearing a cute voice inside my head.'

'You are not going insane. I've been trying to talk to you since yesterday morning.'

“Yesterday morning was when my changes started, are you responsible for them?”

'Maybe? Not all of them. I noticed you yesterday morning at school and you sort of glowed to me and I decided to take a closer look. You know how being dead is, you get bored most of the time so anything unusual brings up my attention. So, you looked like you were glowing to me and I decided to get a closer look at you. The first thing I notice were your eyes as they were turning a nice pink color and I HAD to look closer. I so love pink it is such a cute color, don't you think? Anyway when I got really close to you I suddenly ended up being sucked into you somehow and here I am.'

“So, the pink isn't your doing?”

'I don't think so.'

“And the girl thing?”

'How am I supposed to know. ? I remember thinking that I thought your eyes were such a nice shade of pink but too bad it was on a boy, it would look sooooooo cute in a girl, but I don't think that is enough to make you into a girl. Maybe you already had a girl bit or maybe because I got sucked into you maybe our BITs merged and you ended up with a girl BIT?'

“You mean that if you didn't got close to me and got sucked in I would still be a boy?”

'Maybe? But a boy with pink eyes. It would be such a waste, and would look sooo gay.'

What could I say to that? She was right. Still I didn't want to be a girl, but now it was too late. What could I do? Freak out again?

“So, were you a mutant?”

'I guess so. I was never tested when I was alive. One day things suddenly started to move around me within me even touching them and some people saw it. The next thing I knew I was being beat up and then everything went black. I guess I died then,'

“Oh God! I'm so sorry.”

'It was a long time ago. I'm over its now.'

“When was it?”

'July 1st, 1969. I was 15 years old.'

“So you've been a ghost for almost 40 years?”

'Yes. Can you imagine how boring that is? How depressing is to see so many cute clothes being created and not be able to try a single thing? And what about the shoes? I love shoes. I wanted to try them so badly. Also I couldn't talk to anyone. I'm so happy that I can talk to you now. You look very cute by the way. I can't wait until we go shopping, we will have sooooo much fun trying all sorts of cute outfits.'

“No, no, no, no, NO! No cute outfits for me. I don't even like pink.”

'Awww, come on. Don't be such a party pooper. It's will be fun, trust me. I bet your girlfriend will love to see you try some cute outfits.'

“Hey! That's a low blow.” MJ does like things a little too much on the cute side of things. 'I'm so doomed.' I swear I could hear Mary Sue giggling at me.

“Anyway I should go back out or the doctor will wonder why I’m taking so long in here, but and please, please try to stay quiet during the tests, and okay? ”

'Awww, do I have to?'

'Yes you do. I need to concentrate during the tests and we have a lot of time to talk later if we are stuck with each other, and okay? '

' Ok. ' she said in a whiny mental voice. I hope I don't end up insane because of her, and or worse, I converted to the pink side of life. (shudder)

I left the locker room and the doctor was waiting for me pacing back and forth impatiently. He noticed me leaving the room and said: “Finally. What took you so long?”

“Do you remember the question about hearing voices? I started to hear one now.”

“Really? Did you talk to it? What kind of spirit is it? An ancient one? An elemental spirit? Maybe the spirit of an ancient God or maybe even something even more exotic? ” He asked excitedly.

“I talked to her and she isn't an ancient spirit or anything like that. She was just a mutant girl that was killed in 1969 probably just after manifesting. ”

“Oh, Never mind then. It is still interesting but not as interesting as an ancient god or an elemental spirit. At least we know now that you are an avatar. Are you ready for the tests?”

“As ready as I'll ever be I guess.”

The first test was running on a treadmill. It seems I can sprint about 35mph and keep a steady pace of around 20 mph. I was really impressed by that because I was never very good at running, actually I wasn't very good at any kind of physical exercise.

I think I was running for a little over 30 minutes when I felt something hit me being my head l, I lost my equilibrium and couldn't keep up because I was in the middle of a sprint and was practically thrown off the treadmill and fell down on a... I pink pillow?

"That was unexpected." I heard the doctor say as I was getting up and as soon I got up the pink pillow simply vanished.

"What the heck happened?" I asked angrily.

"I throwed a baseball at you." He told me calmly.

"Why did you do that?"

"Basically it's was to determine if you possess some sort of danger sense, and that could be an indication of an psi trait and/or precognitive powers."

"But did you have to throw in so hard?"

" I'm sorry but it had to be at least a little dangerous for it to work. Although the pink pillow was unexpected."

"What does that mean?"

"I'm not sure yet, but after we finish the tests and go through the data collected by the suit I will."

The next test was weight lifting. The machine would automatically increase the weight until I couldn't do it anymore. At the beginning it was very easy and it started to get harder and harder until I thought I couldn't lift anymore, at that moment the pink glow returned, this time only around my arms and hands and the weights suddenly felt lighter, so I kept going until I couldn't do it anymore.

"Hmmmm.... Fascinating." The doctor said with a curious expression.

After that came a test where he said it was supposed to test my reflexes, of course I think it was just something for him to exercise his sadistic nature as I was led into a room where there were some holes on the walls and the doctor left me alone in there. All I can say is that the holes were for the cannons and I was submitted to the dodge ball game from hell. I was supposed to dodge the balls and at first it was easy., and the problem was that the balls start to come faster and faster and I was having problems dodging them and I got hit once and then the pink force field came up again and the balls couldn't get to me anymore.

The next test thankfully wasn't a physical but an IQ one. Fortunetly the doctor had an alternative test because I did one before and I could remember all the answers for the standard one as it seems I have a photographically memory now along with a considerable boost in my IQ.

After that we stopped for a bit so we could eat something and, if boy I was famished. I ate a lot but the doctor didn't seem impressed, I guess my appetite wasn't uncommon. I tried to ask him about the results so far but he said it was a bit soon to say anything because at the moment other than the avatar thing the rest would be especulation.

  
Next time..... More powers testing and hopefully some answers.

A new chapter

I am glad to see you continuing the story. This story is getting better and better as we continue to see the changes in Melody. The bullies better watch out.

The answers to all of life's questions can be found in the face of a true friend

Mary Sue!

At least she's going to now have someone to help her adjust to the girl thing.

Great to see the next chapter of this story. i find this characters cynical nature to be very funny!

I can't wait to see what you do with her interaction with the spirit. I hope the spirit will be able to help her through all the bumps.

Great story so far!

Pink!

Pink! More Pink!
=)

I'm not much for ideas right now but I'm sooo happy to see more pink.

Cant wait to see what comes next

Pinky powers activate :)

This story can fit in pretty well in an anime setting too, especially with the right costume for her :)

Thank you for unveiling her powers.

lovely sense of humour!

Made me smile... thank you!! Ginger x

Pink? Why Pink? - Part 08

Pink overload

Just when she thought things couldn't get any worse, she finds she's lumbered with a literal Mary Sue 1 :) So she's definitely got the Avatar Trait (AV-1? The classification system on the wiki is described as out of date, as classifications should be based on the host's ability to control the spirit rather than what kind of entity the spirit is), which sounds as though it's providing the TK. As the changes had started before acquiring Mary Sue, Exemplar Trait as well - although as yet the level's unknown; it may be that her regen's linked to her exemplar trait, it may be separate. There's also the weirdness of her blood acting like manifested matter and imploding upon removal.

Really glad to see this back:)

Now I'm just catching up on the ones I've missed.:)
Thank You so much for these chapters of a great story.

But this sentence grates: "I throwed a baseball at you." He told me calmly.

Should be: "I threw a baseball at you." He told me calmly.
