*Three months after his funeral, Madison and her mother were forced to move out of their house to live with her grandmother in Millennium City. Although she kept a brave face for her mother’s sake, the death of her father took a toll on Madison. His death drove her to study criminal justice and law.*

Madison began to feel woozy and uneasy, so she left the party and ventured into the woods. That's when she noticed a glowing blue crystal on the ground and picked it up. The energy from the ''crystal'' blasted her through the woods and landed on the ground. That is when she started to pass out, but not before she felt the weight of someone else on top of her and caught a glimpse of a man. She woke up a few hours and returned to her dorm room. Madison didn't talk about her rape and tried to go back to her life, though she was never truly the same after it.*

### Activation of Powers

F*our days later, Madison tried to forget about that night and decided to go with her friends to a football game with her friends. It was a fun experience until she started getting a headache--a very painful one. Madison went into the parking lot and leaned onto a random car when the pain became too insufferable to bear with, unfortunately, the owner of the car came and was furious to see Madison leaning on the car. The lady accused her of attempting to steal the car and continued with the narrative despite Madison assuring her that was not the case. The lady called the cops and Madison noticed the blatant racism in her voice; this caused Madison great angered and unexpectedly created a lightning bolt that destroyed not only the woman's car but also every car in the aisle, the blast also hit the woman.* *Scared at what just occurred, Madison fled the scene and returned to her dorm room. Madison entered the bathroom but accidentally burned and broke it, then she entered her room and manifested another lightning bolt which hit the wall. ''What's happening to me?'' She muttered.*

### Becoming Eclipse

*For the next six months, Madison ignored her abilities and kept them a secret from everyone, including her mother.*

*After graduating law school, Madison returned to Millennium City and got a job at the District Attorney office and worked her way up to ADA. Her first case as ADA was to expose Giovanni De Luna for crimes in sex and child trafficking. She immediately took the case due to her past sexual assault and wanting to prevent anyone from experiencing what she did. However, this case was more than what it appeared as De Luna was just a front for I.N.A.D Laboratories, who sent their top-notch assassin, Tenebra--who closely resembles Madison--to kill De Luna before he could expose I.N.A.D's operations. Madison witnessed the murder and use her powers to defeat Tenebra before she could kill her. This confrontation caused a long rivalry between the two. Tenebra attacked City Hall and Sidney Bryant which caused Madison to become the superhero, Eclipse.*

*Eclipse's final confrontation with Tenebra was televised, making her known to the public. She spent five months doing solo work before joining The Union of Justice during The 2013 Invasion.*
