I like laying on the ground. I can think more clearly there, let my mind wander. Today I was laying under the treehouse, thinking about afternoons spent there when we were little. One day we came up with nicknames for everyone. Mine was “Mac” for McGee, my last name. It only lasted a day, we realized that it applied to my sister and my two brothers as well. That makes me think about our names. My name is Petra Grace McGee. My brothers are named Gabriel and Armando. My sister’s name is Suzanne. One day when I was about ten Gabe found a box on a shelf in the back room labelled “Dad’s College Books.” It was full of comic books, mostly X-Men. We read through them and found out where our names came from. We are Xavier’s Secret Team. We saved the original X-Men from the evil Krakoa, who held them captive. Petra’s power is earth manipulation. Maybe that’s why I like the ground so much. We all immediately started going by our middle names. Although I kind of like being named after a super heroine.
