Story Ideas

Fire Within

I understand that ideas for this come up all the time; however, I'm sure you're capable of making this story unique.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Title: Fire Within (or your own title)

Main Character/Hero: A girl around the age of eighteen or nineteen

Ideas: *Read the background information below to understand this* The story starts off with a girl living in some sort of foster home. The inspector (I imagine as a someone with authority and power; arrogant personality) will be coming by today, to check on the girls. The girl is running late, she is supposed to be standing at the foot of her bed for inspection. This gets her noticed by the inspector (young male), who takes her to his office to talk to her about the importance of curfew. She has a slightly rebellious spirit; he reminds her why he is in charge. He also goes as far back to remind her that her people, within the fire tribe, caused this town's present-day financial and criminal ruin. Later on in the story, she goes to a flee market (or wherever you would like), and there is a peculiar man who tells a tale of a group of people who live outside of the town's borders. They know the truth about the Light; he wants her to go with him to train to fight the Light. She is a bit wary at first; the people aren't allowed to practice their powers or go outside of the town without permission. After thinking it over, she goes with the man (she dislikes the Light as much as this man). There, outside of the town's borders, she learns to unlock her powers. She, while training (training will be physical, involving powers, but also mental/strategic training), discovers that the inspector is the head of the operation. He was working for the Light to gain information. They have an obvious dislike for each other, but they must put that aside for the sake of the operation. Eventually, they get closer to each other and become comrades. (You can make this story a romance, if you want to. But I won't go into detail about that.) This story is a struggle between good versus evil. (The ultimate conflict is the Light. They will try to destroy the Light and create a new form of government. You can have that play out as you would like.)

-Background Information: There will be a group of people who are in power (I call them the Light; as being referred to as an organization). The male instructor is part of the Light (until the protagonist finds out about him)... people with non-elemental powers. There will be four different kinds of people... people who are part of the earth tribe, water tribe, the Light, and fire tribe. The fire tribe has been declining (she is the only one with fire powers in the town, that she knows of), as they are being banned from the town/territory for going against the Light. The Light are known to dislike people in the fire tribe. If you haven't already picked this up, I envisioned this to be an elemental sort of story. But you could just make this a dystopian society story.

I hope you enjoyed! You can change this story to suit what you want to write/your writing style. Also, you don't have to let me know if you want to use this, but please give me credit for the idea in the description of the story or dedicate the first chapter to me (@samwise_gamgee).

Please comment or vote to let me know if you want me to keep on writing these. If you don't want to use this idea, I'll probably be updating one or two new story ideas a day... so check back here!

Thanks,
