Biography
Lashawna was a medical grad student who had to stop her studies to take care of her ill father. When she tried to donate her own kidney her latent metagene activated causing her to teleport anytime anyone made physical contact. Unable to donate her own Kidney she vowed to find him an alternate. Because of the nature of her powers she ended up causing massive property damage and endangered lives. This led her to fight with Flash and Cyborg who defeated and jailed her. When a prison break occurred she escaped and witnessed her father’s last breath. She later saved Flash’s wife and revealed she originally wanted to be a hero but had been turned off by her experience with Flash and Cyborg. She then disappeared into obscurity.
