Children laughs and the chiming of bikes fill the air of the street. The rays of the sun shine down brightly onto the citizens of Paradise City. Today is a Monday, which is the official start of the week. A day when the townspeople welcome the newly invited tourists to explore the depths of the town to their fullest desires. There can be guests seen entering the multiple lines for the roller coasters at the amusement park. Guests who are feeling full from drowning themselves to their favorite foods and beverages. People who can even be simply checking into the paradise hotel or even checking into the candy shop that is next door to the massive hotel of dreams.
Inside the delicious sugar shop, there is a young woman with pink hair. A decorated bright blue bow on her head as she perfectly stands behind a cash register. All around her through the small shop she operates there is candy decorated all around. Chocolates, sour gummies, regular gummies, lollipops, anything you can imagine. Except for candycorn, cause that doesn’t belong in a grand city of perfection. A bright smile shines from her face as she interacts with the customers who are super energized and hyped up with their bags full of treats.
She wears a white shirt and white jeans along with a baby blue apron. A decorated name tag with stickers of rainbow lollipops that reads the name Blair S. She has a pink nail polish that shimmers with glitter whenever light shines from the window onto it.
On the weekends, she is lucky to have time off of work. On Fridays she may Usually hit up the arcade on Union or the movie theater on Cly. There is a cute bakery shop next to a mini golf area not too far from the arcade that she enjoys.
On Saturdays, Blair will head into town to do her grocery shopping before indulging into her desire to dance at the nightclub. She feels alive when the music generates through her body. Almost as if flashing lights and sound is a nutrition that her body feeds off of.
Then on Sundays, all the stores are closed. It's meant to be a day off for anyone in town. If there are emergency items someone might need from a store the citizens are nice enough to lend food, ingredients, or tampons to someone if they need it. There is, however, one mandatory meeting that is held within the town for the citizens. It's a welcoming for the tourists to make sure they feel at home. Oddly, enough, the tourists have so much exhilarating fun at this event they decide to permanently stay and join. They are able to witness the true light that the city brings. It's totally not weird that they drop everything in their lives and cut contact off with loved ones.
With it being Monday; however, she simply ends her shift be checking out the last customer with their bag of snacks. After watching them walk through the door, she hurries over to lock the door up and to switch the open sign to close. With a sigh of relief, she breathes deeply after her long 16 hour shift. She can finally eat now. Blair pulls the strings on the back of her apron to loosen the hold it has on her torso. Grabbing the string around her neck she pulls it over her head. Glancing at her reflection in a window she drops the apron as her mouth falls.
Blair sees the image of herself warp before her very eyes. Her candy shop attire transforms into a black leather suit with a giant yellow x on her torso. The irises of her eyes changing color as she holds a giant pink rocket launcher in her grasp. The weapon slips from her grasp. As it touches the ground lights flicker from the launcher, particles of light expelling itself. The weapon vanishes upon impact leaving the particles of light to cascade into the air. As they pass her body her heroic outfit disappears, leaving her work attire still in tact. “What was that?”
Elsewhere
In a dingy cold room there is a cage, lined with electric pulses. Zaps could occasionally be heard from the room. Inside there is a white dog that is asleep. As the puppy snores, a simple tear can be seen descending down his snout as he dreams of his favorite human. A special human of his with a lot of pink hair who loves him deeply.
Unknown to most, this dog once went by the name of Cellular Dog. Why he is away from his human Blair remains a mystery.
In an unexpected moment, he opens his eyes to reveal a blue glare that shines across the room like a phone at night time. The dog lets out a loud cry as he tries to telepathically reach out to anyone close by. “....woof”. Random metallic objects are flung across the room as he let out a psychic burst. In response, a pulse of electricity shoots into the cage as his white paw gets too close to the opening.
He lays there, with each moment he is able to telepathically find a member of the Titans, he is electrocuted and tortured before he can wake them up from the nightmare they found themselves in. For, in actuality this town is a realm of torture and unlike anything they could've ever encountered. He fights day and night waiting to escape so he could help save his family.
