It seemed like an ordinary day around Jackie's room as she just returned from the comic shop with a fresh batch of comics. "Ah...can't wait to see what new adventures we have...Let's see...ah...Origin of the Mystic Maiden." Jackie said as she started the comic.

The comic opened to an average city with everyone going about their own business. "Even though it has been so long now, I've never forgotten where I came from...Or what happened that fateful day..." The dialogue box said as the next page began to zoom in on a crowd of people.

They all looked up as a certain witch stood on her broom as she laughed. "Ladies and gentleman...today I bring you a spectacle beyond compare." she laughed.

"This will be my greatest trick ever." She said as the image zoomed in on her smiling. "I will make a portal through space and time appear that will let you all see what dinosaurs really looked like in the past."
"Perhaps if my ego wasn't so big at the time I would have made sure to work on my pronunciation of the spell."

People ran screaming as the smile on the witches face slowly turned to one of horror. “As people died around me I struggled to close the portal, but my haste only made things worse as more portals to other events opened up.”

"Not...good.' she muttered as one stay event hit her broom as she was sent tumbling down towards the ground. "Is this the end? How my career as a trickster ends?" she pondered as she thought back to all of her centuries pulling tricks on others. "I...screwed up.' she muttered as she shut her eyes as she awaited her end.
However, the end did not come. She soon awoke, bandaged up in some sort of underground infirmary. "What is this?" she pondered.

“Some might call it purgatory…Others a fallout shelter.” A figure said, standing just at the edge of the light. “Though I suppose that would be those who survived.”

"Hey...wait." she said reaching out for them as she grabbed their arm. As she did, she soon realized the one she had grabbed onto was the Green Mind. "You?"

“Yes. Pink Streak and the others were trying to save everyone they could, but not everyone survived as smoke from the portals filled the air.”

"But...why? I fattened you for my own amusement. I made you two compete to be my playthings. So...why...why? Why did you save someone as terrible as me?" she asked.

“Because whether you deserved it or not…it is what a hero does. They save people.”

The witch was only stunned upon hearing those words as she had heard them. "Tell me...how many...perished cause of my magic?" she asked.
