As this thread started out about Pink, it's only fitting that I put this here:
IST New York's Teen Super Heroine "Pink" celebrates her 14th birthday.
March 15th, 2011
Amidst much celebration, Stephanie Aldermain, the Super Heroine Pink, turned fourteen today. Her mother, Susan Aldermain, was flown in from Amsterdam by the UN to celebrate the day with her daughter.
Not many Californians can forget April of 2009 when a localized Reality Quake caused by the Megavillain Mandrake's attempt to steal a reality shard from IST LA's vault. Los Angeles was rocked by the waves of damage reality causing tens of millions of dollars of damage and hundreds of lives were lost.
Like a Phoenix from its ashes, twelve-year-old Stephanie Aldermain burst from a collapsed building. Her latent Metahuman genes turned her into the indestructible juggernaut Pink. On the ropes, IST LA's Field Commander, The Patriot, was happy to get any help from any quarter. Pink's power-level was unbelievable. She engaged Mandrake directly and added a few million dollars of damage to the city herself. IST LA used this time to clean up Mandrake's scaly minions and get the wounded out of harm's way. The battle between Pink and Mandrake lasted nearly an hour before the badly beaten Mandrake fled with his few, remaining minions.
Pink remained behind to assist with the clean up until she was taken to New York to meet with Witchwind and Argurous Astraph. Witchwind and Argurous agreed that such a powerful child needed better supervision and, with Stephanie's agreement, signed her into the IST.
Since that day, Pink has always been where overwhelming firepower was needed. She has tangled with Al Khayal Min Allah, Blacklight, Mandrake and the Void, each time defeating them, making it appear that she barely broke a sweat.
Last December, a Chinese fleet and The North Korean Western Fleet gathered west of Yeonpyeong Island, and Pink went there to both bolster the IST embassy and attempt to defuse the situation. The Chinese fleet opened fire on the girl with anti-ship, high-velocity railguns, knocking her from the sky. Traces of her blood could be seen in the water. As the two fleets approached the island celebrations were apparent upon their decks.
A minute later, those celebrations turned to stark terror as Pink burst through the Chinese flagship, sinking it. She again came under fire from the Chinese fleet as well as the North Korean fleet. This time, however, her force field held up to the onslaught. Her eye beams sank over a hundred ships before they were able to affect a retreat.
Happy Birthday, Pink. We sleep better knowing you're out there keeping us safe.
