Bella Watson was born and raised দ্বারা a single mother, who died in a plane crash when Bella was three. She was then put into foster care and was adopted দ্বারা that same family, until they all died during an apartment আগুন when Bella was nine.
It was that same আগুন and the trauma of it that activated the metagene in her DNA, giving her powers that allow her to be immune to heat, as well as to create and control fire.
Following the fire, she escaped social service with another older foster boy named Gavin Haynes. The two lived on the রাস্তা for about a বছর until Bella tried to pickpocket a woman and accidentally revealed her powers to her.
The woman's name was Amelia Harwell, a millionaire real estate company owner who had recently adopted her grandson (Eudore "E" Foster), who also had powers he was working through at the time. She took in Bella and Gavin in hopes that Bella would help E figure out how to manage his powers (his eyes can turn a solid red and liquidate other peoples' insides). Amelia eventually ended up adopting the two.
When Bella was fifteen and Gavin was eighteen, on their way প্রথমপাতা early from a হ্যালোইন charity benefit, they got into a car accident with drunk drivers that ended up killing Gavin. Distraught, Bella ran away from প্রথমপাতা and joined the Ukranian Mob of Gotham known as the "Whisper Gang" (under special circumstances- because she had powers). During the training Bella received there, she learned how to use a gun, fight, and control her powers. A বছর later, during her induction, ব্যাটম্যান showed up, and Bella was told she had to kill him to be fully inducted. She refused, and helped ব্যাটম্যান to take them all down. Consequently, ব্যাটম্যান gave her two options: যোগদান her fellow gang members in Belle Reve, অথবা যোগদান a team that he was forming under the Justice League. Bella chose the সেকেন্ড option and joined the team under the alias "Mercy," using an outwardly যেভাবে খুশী and eccentric personality to distract people from asking প্রশ্ন about her past.
When Bella turned nineteen, she was seen boarding a plane for a mission, but the plane never landed. The League presumed her dead, until several months later when she appeared asking Nightwing for help taking down a new generation of Whisper Gang members. The Justice League found out she was alive, and offered her a position as a gang specialist.
At the same time, Bella also works at Harwell Real Estate Headquarters in Gotham with her brother E. The two of them live together between two penthouses in both Gotham and New York City.
I know this is Anastasia, but I just think they would look so alike!!
