Nature Girl

“Hey, buddy. Who’s the new girl?”

“Which one? Several new ones blew into town.”

“The one leaning against the wall thinkin’ she’s Zorro.”

“Shh! She’ll hear you. That’s Nature Girl. Yeah, that’s her name. She controls the elements. And I don’t mean oxygen and iron. I mean The Elements. The Greek stuff. Air, water, earth, and fire.”

“Huh. Nature Girl. What’s with the outfit? Shouldn’t she wear green leaves or something?”

“You called it yourself, man. Zorro. You ever play Dungeons and Dragons? Yeah? Okay. She’s Chaotic Good. Robin Hood. Zorro. Steals from the rich and gives to the poor. She’s a real thorn in the side of institutions. Don’t matter which ones. The government, the Mafia, Big Pharma, terrorists, banks. Nature Girl takes them all on. The little guy? She bends over backwards to help. They say she’s a real sweetheart, unless you cross her. But she qualifies as one of us, so here she is at Logan’s Pub.”

“She’s cute.”

“Forget it. She only likes other girls.”

“That’s a waste!”

“Shh. Uh, oh. She heard us.”

“How do you know?”

“Look at her left hand. I don’t think she wants to light a cigarette.”
