Going out during the day was usually suicide. Why she stuck around here she wondered at many times a day. New York City is probably the worst place for her to be. A Normal Average girl with out any extraordinary features to accent her, except her savant like ability to draw. She's pretty too...
Now she runs from hidden place to hidden place trying to scrape by on scraps of food. The real reason she's stayed behind when others have left is because she hopes her family will come to save her. Her father in particular, or maybe her boyfriend, who she watched die when the dooms day clones attacked, but refuses to admit what she saw.
Currently she's dressed in some nice looking clothes that she stole from a department store up town while rooting through some rubble for valuables, or food, or things to cook food. For being an ex high school cheer leader slash drama queen no-life good for nothing she's certainly got survival instincts, most girls would probably have died of exposure within the first couple of weeks, but it's been how long and she's been out here by herself?
Honestly it's her brother and fathers fault, they're both crazy outdoorsmen that love to talk constantly about how to survive, she's just lucky she was dumb, or smart, enough to over hear and remember a lot of it. Still it hasn't been easy, but at least all the free make up and expensive clothes and jewelry she can find are a nice luxury to keep her sane.

Ah, New York what a city it had once been but now was rubble and a massive graveyard those that some how survived and still lived here wouldn’t have buried them it was to dangerous so they were just left there to rot away to nothing leaving bones behind. Turning the city into a bone yard you could say. A skull was crushed under foot as Zarda landed a hovercraft landed behind her she was soon joined by a dark skinned man “Get your ass moving Blur I’ll watch your back from the sky.” She pointed in front of them he took off as she headed back into the sky using her x-ray vision to keep an eye on the speedster as he went around looking for places that they could search for useful things.
The hovercraft was back in the air were it was more safe then on the ground. It waited for the signal to pick up Blur before they spread out while Zarda watched for clones and kept them busy while they gathered the things. It didn’t take long before Zarda gave the ship the signal to move out and pointed out were they needed to go. She waited for them to go ahead before she followed behind them but didn’t land instead she took her place on the edge of a building watching everything that was going on around them as well as keeping an ear out for the clones.

When she hears something coming she immediately ducks and hides. But she isn't very quick about it. It's easy to know some one or something is there amongst the rubble. Honestly, all the dead every where had really bothered Indigo at first, but the shock of everything else, she just tuned it out and adapted. In all honesty, this speedster and Power Princess may very well be the first living people she's seen in a long time.
She doesn't even bother to check who it is, anything around here is most likely a doomsday clone so she just runs and hides. She gets under the nearest slab of concrete she can find and stays perfectly still, breathing as little as possible, hoping that they will ignore her, but her heart is beating hard and fast.

Zarda spotted a young woman hiding with her x-ray vision staying in this city wasn’t a good idea. That and she would like to know how she could be alive still. Turning off her x-ray vision she dropped off the building she landed on the ground with enough force to crack the ground as well as cause dust, debris and a few bones to go flying. It also caused everyone to stop what they were doing to see what was going on once they realized it was just Zarda and not a clone they went back to work a few going into different buildings.
Zarda ignored their looks as she made her way over to where Indigo was hiding reached down grabbing a hold of the slab she was hiding under with one hand and lifted it up. And looked down at the girl for a long moment before speaking “It’s not safe here come with me if you want to live.” she tossed the slab back before turning around and walking off heading to the group expecting the girl to follow her.

She starts to whimper and tear up and shake when she hears Power Princess land near where she is hidden. She is almost certain her life is about to end and it's absolutely terrifying. When she slab flies up she puts her hands out and screams!
"No! Please Wait!..."
Her violent fear is curbed quickly by the sound of a sweet womanly tone and not a monstrous hateful voice like the kind the doomsday clones have. She listens to her words and blinks furiously, her whole world turned upside down. Like, wait, she's been saved?! not dead?!
"Oh my GOSH thank you thank you!"
She jumps up and follows after Power Princess quickly, she grabs a hold of her hand, she's significantly shorter than Power Princess is, measuring in at 5 feet six inches, and just over a hundred and five pounds, she's pretty mal nourished, her curves will fill back out after she's had more than a rat or can of beans every other day.
"Thank you so much, thank you...Thank you, please, I...thank you thank you thank you! Do you need help with anything? I'm not very good at anything except drawing, but I can try and help...what's your name? Do you want to be friends?
She might be twenty one but it's clear she never really grew up, then again, how many girls like her really do grow up by that age? There is no need. She's used to have all her problems handled for her by her father and mother, no need to grow up.
She follows after Power Princess very closely.

Zarda stopped walking when the girl garbed her hand she wasn’t used to people touching her like this very strange. What was more strange was the girls ability to say thank you that fast and that much. It was kind of annoying “My name is Zarda, I don’t have friends never really needed them. If you really want to help head over to the hovercraft the ones still there can tell you what you can help with.” she didn’t think the girl could be anymore useful then getting supplies with the others.
Zarda was kind of odd besides being a bit on the crazy side she really wasn’t a people person. She can give orders just fine it’s the normal stuff as well as being friendly she didn’t really get. And right now wasn’t the best of times to learn. She was about to pull her hand free but stopped when she heard something turning to look behind her she couldn’t see anything so she switched to her x-ray vision and saw at lest five clones heading this way. “Blur get everyone back on the hovercraft NOW! And get into the sky.” she freed her hand and took off into the air heading for the group it was more then she could handle safely but she could keep them busy until they got away she just had to be really careful.
The man didn't say anything just took off to start rounding everyone up and get them back on the ship. While he was doing that Zarda began her attack on the clones. One jumped into the air towards her turning in mid-air she kicked it in the chest sending it flying back just as the others began jumping at her. She moved back using her flash vision to blast them away from her.

She was genuinely excited at that moment, but that excitement turned to fear when she saw the clones. When Power Princess barked her orders she screamed hysterically and began running the -wrong- direction. She immediately entered panic mode.
"Oh god please help me, Oh god please some one help me!"
She shouts over and over again as she goes to probably the worst place to hide, inside of an unstable building. She really is just reacting off of instinct at this point, what hover craft and where? Who knew if it was safe, she knew where safe was and it wasn't on some device! Or well that's what she thought while in a state of extreme panic. Like most people, she didn't think very clearly while in the grips of extreme fear.
Just as she ran in, Zarda knocks one of the clones away and it lands square dead center into the unstable 30 story building. The bottom floor is safe for now, but the entire thing will probably collapse at any second! Meanwhile, Indigo is just running around trying to find some place to hide inside there, a ventilation shaft, under a table, behind a curtain! It doesn't mater, she's scared out of her mind!
"Oh god you sure fucked up this time Indie, Time to pay for all those times you picked on that Greg kid in the ninth grade OH GOD PLEASE HELP ME!"
She screams the last words as the building starts coming down, it creaks and rumbles, then starts to collapse in a fury of metal and glass that will surely turn any normal person into chop suey!

Oh great, Zarda rolled her eyes when Indigo ran off like a chicken with it’s head cut off. That was a bad move one of the clones jumped up and managed to land a punch to her face sending her flying back into what was left of a building. That hurt she managed to get up staggering a bit she put a hand to the side of her face then pulled it away to is it was indeed bleeding from the four gashes on the side of her face. She flew out of the building about to get back into the fight when she noticed a building starting to come down. Normally she would ignore it and get back into the battle but she was pretty sure that insane woman ran in there. So she flew down there using her x-ray vision she found her and the clone near by that was getting back up.
She smashed through the wall grabbing Indigo and throwing her through the hole a good ways just clone got to her and the building came down on top of them. It took a few moments before the clone came flying out of the ruble Zarda hot on it’s heels. She grabbed a hold of it from behind ignoring the pain from the bones on it’s back cutting into her flesh. She didn’t have clothes like Superman that could protect her better. She was trying to get up high enough to throw the clone to another part of the city but didn’t get the chance the thing stabbed her in the side with the long bone spike that was coming off it’s elbow and she ended dropping him. Today was turning out to be a very bad day.
Deciding to leave it she took off to find Indigo and grab her and take off heading for the hovercraft that was already out of the city by the time they caught up to them. The back door opened up for them. Zarda put Indigo and placed her hand back over her side to try and stop the bleeding. But it wasn’t working to well the wound was bigger then her hand could cover. One of the guys took his shirt off and stuck it on her side pressing on it. “We can’t have our fearless leader bleeding to death on us.” he said looking up at the taller woman he was short compared to most of the people there. Zarda snorted “It’ll take more then this to kill me.” she dropped down into a chair. “Let’s get back to Paradise Island.” she ordered before closing her eyes.

Suddenly she's in a whirl wind of action, she gets picked up and gently tossed out a window, she is screaming the whole time till she lands safely outside the building that is collapsing. We'll say Zarda was so good, she actually threw Indigo out a window and across the street to land on some kind of old canopy that was hanging over a store front, it was all in rags and torn up but there was still enough to catch her, she bounced in a bit, then sat there calmly with her eyes wide and her heart racing. Mouth agape, unable to find words or even noises and sounds to make in response to what she'd just been through.
Then the building started coming down near by and she started screaming again, she closed her eyes and curled up. Before to much longer she found herself curling up against a bleeding super heroine, Power Princess. Beautiful, strong and able, and most importantly, capable of kicking the doomsday clones asses.
When they land back onto the hover craft, safe and sound, Indigo goes back into shock for a few moments, then she freaks out.
"oh my GOD DID YOU SEE THAT. That building nearlyfellonme and oh wow shereallykicked those guysbutts, i nearlydiedbutshesaved my life, HEY You're bleeding? Can I help?"
She scrambles around, then finally pulls her backpack off of her back, and sets it down then unzips it and pulls out some gause and ointment. It's apparently the left overs from a first aid kit combined with a bunch of scavenged over the counter drugs.
"Can I help you? Do you need anything? I'll do anything, Just say the word, you are like, the coolest ever, Oh man, I owe you my life...dang, You're like powergirl or wonder woman or jean grey or something, who are you? Power Princess, that name seems so familiar...are you some kind of super hero?"
She's so very animated, and yet so innocent and adorable. She's very child-like and extremely excited to help, she's just been through the second most traumatic event in her life, but this time, instead of watching thousands die, she got her life saved, so now there will probably be some hero worship going on. Indigo's charisma is a little intoxicating too, when she smiles, others want to smile, when she laughs, others want to laugh, she's got a soothing voice too. Not to mention a subtle sex appeal, from the way she talks, to the delicate motions of her hands and the sway of her hips. Her hair is a mess, but it's a sexy mess.

Everyone just stared at the little blonde woman that Zarda had brought on the ship they were most likely wondering how she could breath and talk that fast. It was like one long run on fan girl sentence. Zarda for the most part ignored it she wasn’t feeling so good it probably wasn’t from the blood lost but the five foot six blonde headache she was getting. She really didn’t know how anyone can stand being around a person that talked like that she’s barely been around the girl and she already had enough of her mouth to last a lifetime.
Zarda tensed up when she felt someone in her personal space she opened one lavender eye to see blue ones looking at her like she was waiting for something. She hadn’t paid any attention to what the girl had been saying which she usually did with everyone if it didn’t have anything to do with her or something important she tuned it out. In this case Zarda tuned it out because the blonde was talking to fast in that kind of annoying way. “Go sit down.” she finally spoke up before closing her eye again and resting her head on the chair. Her body was already at work healing her wounds though it’d take a little longer for these to close up.

When she suddenly noticed she was the center of attention rather than clam up the looked around and smiled at everybody but her main focus was on Zarda. When Zarda finally opens her eyes, Indigo smiles brightly, but when Zarda barks off her order, she jumps a bit and nods quiuckly, then moves to sit in the nearest seat to Zarda she can find.
"Yikes, ok!"
From that point on she just stares at Zarda. But when Zarda gives her evil looks, she looks away, but looks through the corners of her vision to look back at Zarda!

It was getting late by the time they reached Paradise Island once the ship had landed the guy’s helped unload everything before they left the island taking what they needed. It was Queen Hippolyta’s wishes that the men had to live some where else that was fine with Zarda she and her team built an island nearby for them to live on it was easy when you had a magic user in the group. The Amazons didn’t really need any of the stuff themselves but for the non Amazons they went through the boxes and took what they needed leaving the rest to be put away for later use.
Zarda left them she never really stuck around instead she made her way deeper into the island to the top of a waterfall she stripped down tossing her clothes over to the side before swan diving off the top of it into the water below. It took a few moments before she came back up she used the water to wash away the blood from her face her wounds had already healed long before they even got here. Zarda looked around she had this weird feeling she wasn’t alone maybe it was an Amazon or two but something told her it wasn’t that.

Of course Zarda isn't alone, she has a fan! Indigo follows Zarda as sneakily as she can, which is pretty dang sneaky. In fact stealth is something Indigo is remarkably good at. Maybe it's all that agility she picked up as a cheer leader through high school and some of college. When She catches up she does so just in time to see Zarda strip naked. Indigo's eyes go wide and she covers them, but peeks through her fingers to watch Zarda dive off the river. Indigo feels her cheeks redden as she blushes with awe. It's not that she's sexually attracted to Zarda, she's never really thought about girls like that before, but Zarda is obviously wishing for privacy and Indigo is invading it by being a dirty voyer.
She sneaks closer, but keeps her hand over her eyes, when she keeps hidden behind a tree with low branches and lots of leaves, it would be easy to spot her with normal human eyes, never mind Zarda's super human eyes. She is watching, but she isn't watching. She's trying not to pry, or be creepy, she imagines she's being very creepy, but man Zarda is so cool!
After a few seconds she decides to be brave and simply steps out from behind the tree, of course Zarda would most likely be aware of her by then. Indigo has no idea where they even are, she is entirely dependant upon Zarda, but she doesn't mind. In her head Zarda is a hero, she's the best.
"Hi! Sorry, I'm not trying to be a weird creeper or anything, I just, I'm checking on you. Umm....Wow Sorry I guess I kind of Am a weird creeper. I'll go away now. It's just been...a long time since I had any friends or talked to anybody."
She bites her lip rather cutely, then turns around and starts to leave. Her entire mood is much calmer now, she sounds normal, speaks an average speed, her voice still sounds like silk though. It's very sweet, like the smell of lavender, gentle and soft, without being overbearingly cute or dull.

Zarda looked over to where she heard the heart beat of someone it was the girl she had saved hours ago. Unlike normal people Zarda didn’t freak out and covered herself up or try hiding underwater until she was alone again. She’d freely walk around naked everywhere if she could. The reason why she didn’t do it was because they’d never get anything done. “You don’t have to leave. It’ll take more then a peeping Tammy to scare me off. Besides this is normal here I don’t think you would want to insult Wonder Woman’s people?”
“Besides I’m sure you could use a bath? I doubt the city has any running water left that isn’t rain.” she laid on her back floating in the water like she didn’t have a care in the world. But she did she just didn’t let it get to her. “The world has gone to hell thanks to the government. Now their trying to make up for it by making me the bad guy just because I have the balls to stand up to them. Afraid that I could run the world better then they ever could. So now their trying to kill me to be the hero in hopes to win the people back. Only problem is I'm already becoming a hero to them by keeping them fed, happy and safe."

Wonder Woman's people? Are they on that themeski-what ever isle? It had to be that! No wonder there were hot women every where! Well that's okay she supposed, she'd always wanted to visit this place, but she'd kept it a secret, a lot of people around where she lived thought it was a weird isle filled with perverted crazy lesbian women or something. Not that much of that bothered Indigo, but she always kept that to herself.
So she stops trying to hide or cover her eyes, but she never really does look directly at Power Princess' naked body, she catches herself taking peeks though, she pretty much blushes every time too.
"Yeah, I could probably use a bath, I mean, I took baths, kinda...I'd collect water from various places and with all the fancy body washes and bubbles and bath beads and stuff I stole from ..places, it wasn't so bad....but yeah, i haven't had a bath today...and...I umm, I'll just wait till you're done. I... Uh Guess...
Indigo did do a great job of taking care of herself, she doesnt look ragged out and starving and desperate like you'd think some one who has been living literally under a rock with no running water or power for who knows how many months. But it's amazing how you can get by without simple necessities provided you have a few nice luxuries. The result is a very very pretty 21 year old girl who is very mal nourished and not quite right in the head any more.
If Power Princess ever looks at Indigo while She's looking at Power Princess, she'll blush immediately and look away. She listens to Power Princess lament on the world, and nods. None of what Power princess says really makes since to her since she's literally a naive child, but she is very much a go with the flow type of person, she doesn't really challenge what other people say.
"My daddy never liked the government either. He said they were always trying to take his money and give it to people that didn't deserve it. Money I needed for college and car payments and stuff, but daddy fought them, and made it work I guess cuz I was in college and had a car, it was a sexy car too, didja ever see the new charger they made? Well they were all new to me, but that's what they called it, the new charger, that's what daddy called it, it was so big and fast and vroom! Mine was red, I got it for graduating high school with straight A's. *sigh* it was destroyed by doomsday clones...which sucks! Hey, is your name really power princess or do you have a regular name? Like mines Indigo, and yours is?"
She looks over at Zarda casually, in conversation, but at first sight of Zarda's gorgeous breasts, her eyes widen and she looks away sheepishly. She's very embarrassed by all this, her father was some-what strict and conservative, mother too, but both of them loved their kids more than their own morals, so they were able to grow how ever they wanted too.
