Eclipse

Eclipse

Background

Renee Watson grew up wanting to be an astronomer. While studying astronomy in college, she got a unique opportunity to see a total eclipse. On the way to the eclipse viewing site, Renee found a wizened old man who had collapsed. Thankfully, her mom had taught her CPR and she saved the man's life.
As a token of gratitude, the man gave Renee a yin-yang necklace and told her to wear it during the eclipse. Renee complied. And she would never forget what happened next.
When the eclipse reached totality, a beam of swirling, black-and-white energy blasted Renee right in necklace and knocked her out cold.
When Renee woke in the field, she looked at herself in a fellow student's phone camera and saw her body was now jet black on the left side and pure white on the right side. She was confused and terrified! Even more confusing was that when she jumped in the air in shock, she didn't come back down. Renee then realized she could fly. Renee flew up and down and all around. She just felt so full of energy! And then she released energy blasts from her fists, a white beam of light from her white side, and a black beam of darkness from her black side.
Renee realized that with the powers of flight and energy blasts, she could be someone greater than an astronomer. She could be a superhero. And eventually, she became an FBS member.
