My name is Kamala Khan. And I'm here to take out the trash.

--Kamala Khan (Earth-616)

Fabulous. Now I'm in trouble, too. This has to have happened for a reason. I saved one life. Does it stop there or do I go on? Maybe this is what I've been waiting for. Maybe I'm finally part of something... bigger.

--Kamala Khan (Earth-616)

Wait a minute. I have super-powers. I saved somebody's life on Friday. I am 911! But -- everybody's expecting Ms. Marvel. Ms. Marvel from the news. With the hair and the spandex and the Avengers swag. Not a sixteen-year-old brown girl with a 9 pm curfew. Too late for second thoughts. Don't worry, Bruno... help is on the way.

--Kamala Khan (Earth-616)

Yeah, we've gotta do something drastic. But not this. This is not saving the world. This is admitting the world is over. This is saying our generation will never matter. But we have to matter. If we don't, there is no future worth saving.

--Kamala Khan (Earth-616)

Everybody stop! This guy is not in high school!

--Kamala Khan (Earth-616)

School, Avengers, my regular bi-weekly dungeon group in Ancient Scrolls Online... it's all great, but it's what Abu would call a problem of plenty. And the thing about a problem of plenty is... it's still a problem.

Okay. It's okay. The admin will take care of it. I definitely should not read every single one of those fanfics. It'll just drive me crazy.

--Kamala Khan (Earth-616)

Inhuman is what you were always meant to be, Lunella. It's what you are. You should embrace it.

--Kamala Khan (Earth-616)

I know you made me responsible for this team, but I'm also responsible for this city. I have to do what's right for JC. We've gotta disband the Cadets.

--Kamala Khan (Earth-616)

Hey... so... Lunella... I'm leaving you this message. I know you been through a lot. But I need you to hang in there. The world needs you... I know that the change is hard for you. But growing up is hard for everyone. You've been given gifts, Lunella. Even when being an Inhuman feels like a curse... have faith that there's a purpose. And one day soon, all your awesome parts will learn to work together... and if you ever need me, just call. I'll be there for you.

You're just a person with a computer and too much free time. You can't scare me with this Mr. Robot stuff.

Look, this isn't New York. We don't do cosmic battles every five minutes, okay? We have standards.

You told him, Ammi! You betrayed me!

--Kamala Khan (Earth-616)

My best guess... is that that -- is the final boss battle.

--Kamala Khan (Earth-616)

That... sounds kinda scary. And morally questionable?

--Kamala Khan (Earth-616)

Well, look at it this way. If we both ruined each other's lives, at least we're even.

We all fight against the worst versions of ourselves.

--Kamala Khan (Earth-616)

Well... what if I can come up with something better than poker?

--Kamala Khan (Earth-616)

Thanks for being here, but you can go. These people took my name. There's something I have to do. Alone.

--Kamala Khan (Earth-616)

Someone sold us out.

--Kamala Khan (Earth-616)

We know they haven't changed. No matter what face they put on it, they don't care about us. All Roxxon wants is to use "Kamala's Law" to scare kids into silence. To never speak up against their policies because morals are bad for business. Whatever they're planning with this app and the whole image rehab thing? It's all to keep the law in the books. And they're ready to fight dirty to do it. I know this is going to sound wild coming from me, guys, but maybe, just maybe... ...we've got to fight just as dirty. We fought fair and they made us outlaws anyway, thinking it would weaken us. But they made a huge mistake. They brought the fight to us. To a teenager's ultimate battleground-- the internet. If they wanted to force us to play dirty? They're in for the fight of their lives.
