Prologue

Prologue (Hazel-Rae)
I hardly remembered anything.
Well, except for the fact that my parents found out about me, freaked out and dumped me onto an abandoned street.
My past was unclear. Where did I live? What did I do? Who were my friends?
Most importantly, who was I?
That was the only thing I hated The Association of Singapore's Supernatural (TASS) for was that they got Amnesia to wipe the memories of every person who arrived there.
I really hated that Amnesia
I mean, who picks 'Amnesia' as their alias? Ridiculous.
Amnesia means short term memory loss.
Not permanent memory loss.
And again, it was not exactly permanent memory loss, because my past life was locked up in a room, in a sleek bottle.
Her real name was Nora Hee but most people still call her Amnesia. She struts around the campus like a peacock, thinking she was a notch or two better than everyone else.
Almost everyone else.
The most powerful of us is locked up in a glass chamber. Her alias was Silence, but it might as well have been Death.
Sea Song, sounded like a beautiful name.
Sea Song could kill you with a touch.
Me? Oh, I thought my powers were cool.
I called myself the Intruder, as reading people's minds were like intruding into their privacy.
We stayed hidden from the outside world. It was dangerous out there.
Six years ago, a really depressed dude named Phillius Koh was committing suicide when he chickened out and hung there midair. There were witnesses and Phillius was then whisked away by scientists to be experimented on.
He died after the first experiment, after the scientists got the knowledge that there were more of his kind in the world. More of us.
That was when and why TASS was formed. To keep us safe, under the sea.
The power of the Mask keeps us hidden.
