Rayn Hicks/Franchise

## Thunder

Long ago, when Rayn was a newborn baby, she was given extraordinary powers that would shape her life as she got older. 10 years later, Rayn witnessed her first race. Rayn since then had the dream to become a racer and show the world that she has what it takes to become a champion like her father.

When Rayn turned 16, her powers became uncontrollable, causing power outages all over the coastline from San Francisco to California, forcing Chick to House her at RSN with Lily, preventing his daughter from venturing outside. One day, while at a race, Rayn accidentally causes an electrical outage, leaving her to run off into the forest and lament over her miss fortune. She eventually came to terms with her powers after she realized that her powers were powered by her emotions. She eventually grew a confidence and prevented a powerful F5 tornado from destroying a small town in Tennessee.

Rayn has then controlled her powers and has been named a hero all over the world. Down the road she would become a singer, signing with Studio 713, in Houston and becoming a motorsport champion, winning a total of 7 times before entering the Piston Cup Championship, racing alongside Cal Weathers and Lightning McQueen, and winning a total of 2 times.

## Storm Chasing

Now racing for a while, winning her 10th race. She gained popularity and a fan base, with those guaranteeing she'll win the next Piston Cup. She was friends with McQueen and in a romantic relationship with Cal weathers, with hope down the road they could start dating. When she won, to her father's surprise, utter shock and happiness back at RSN, she gained the respect of The King, Tex Dinoco and the whole racing world.

When she wins the Piston Cup again, She got everyone questioning about her winning streak and if she'd go for a third. She says no and takes off back to LA to see her father, only to get a call from Ray Reverham about "someone" who is a HUGE fan and would love to meet her. When they meet, it sparks a friendship and a slow growing romantic relationship, though she still has a thing with Cal.

After having a conversation with Ray and the Head of IGNTR, she becomes their 2nd sponsor, their leading being Storm and Rayn being their secondary. When the 2016 season rolls round, Jackson makes his debut and wins 10 races before going for the Piston Cup. Though having a relationship with Cal, he decides, since the Next Gens are no match, to retire. Rayn and Cal have one last moment before he leaves, leaving her heartbroken, reminiscing on what could have been and their memories together. Eventually, she would focus on Jackson's winning streak and think about what matter most.

Rayn assures him that she will be there with him on the track, watching him from a distance. When Jackson wins with flying colours, Rayn is ecstatic and overjoyed, admiring him and how far he had come. After they return to Houston, they are officially a Couple. Rayn and Jackson would talk about their future, where they would be in years time. She decided to move to Houston after the Florida 500.

Once the Florida 500 comes around, Rayn wears her mother's old IGNTR suit for the occasion. As the race begins, Rayn and Jackson remain in first and second, but once they're into the last lap, Jackson slows down intentionally to let Rayn win. Rayn is emotionally happy and thrilled that she won her first race in Florida. Later that night, Jackson proposes by hiding the ring box in the sand. Once she finds it, he proposes. To her utter shock, she says yes, wearing the ring proudly as sits with Jackson watching the waves.

## Storm of Secrets

Back when she was a little girl, Rayn would hear a story about the 4 elements, how they were in limbo before they would awaken and find a new keeper. Her mother tells this tale every other night, since Rayn loves hearing about mysterious legends that could be true.

Rayn wakes up and fins Jackson isn't home. When she looks down at her hand, the proposal back in Florida comes back. When she gets up and sets off to find Jackson, her mind plays games as she believes a storm is coming. When she begins to become anxious, she exclaims not to feel her powers becoming uncontrollable. When she blinks however, the clouds are gone and Jackson is concerned. When Jackson asks, she explains she saw clouds, but Jackson assumes it was her brain playing tricks on her. She agrees, heads home.

When Rayn arrives in Los Angeles to visit Her Parents, She is stunned and happy that they have rekindled their marriage. Her mother explains that she changed racing for the better, something Rayn agrees. When Nancy beckons Rayn to clean herself up, she later brings up the story she told her daughter when she was young.
