"You guys are superheroes?!" "We're not, like, great at it. We're okay." •★• Elton City, one of the largest booming cities in the midwestern region of the U.S., is undergoing major change as the Federal Growth of Communities (F.G.C) invites itself into the city and makes itself at home. On the outside, they're fixing old buildings, bringing in new businesses, cleaning up the streets. But under their good-guy guise, Elton City local Evette accidentally discovers something much more sinister brewing. And, after a series of confusing events, Evette finds herself with a strange set of superpowers and a target on her back. Along with Evette, three other seniors at Northwood High School mysteriously develop supernatural powers: Lewis; the nobody from the wrong side of Elton Camille; the heartless girl with looks that could kill Ross; the anxious quarterback In order to stop whatever evil the F.G.C. is stirring up, Elton City needs a hero-and Evette's ragtag team of freaks might just have to fill that role.

I've been on the run for three years. I'm not the first, but I certainly won't be the last. For as long as I can remember, I had been experimented on, drugged to the brink of insanity, and tortured by someone I thought was my family. Boy, was I wrong. This isn't one of those stories where I suddenly get a huge boost of courage and defeat the bad guys then live happily ever after. I don't believe in that stuff anymore. Instead, I was a coward, and ran for my life, for my freedom, because I was too afraid to stand and fight and risk losing control like the monster they had created me to be. I've been too many people, have moved too many times. Now, I wonder if I will finally be able to find a place to call home... I won't allow myself to be captured before I even have a chance at that. Because if do, I'm as good as dead. © Sweetslover8 ~August 26th, 2013 ***Please note that the following is a work of fiction.

"You were born an original. Don't die a copy" My artwork improves by the chapter, so the beginning is kind of sketchy. Hard work doesn't work unless you work hard :) Cover painted by: hope_sees_the_stars (me) Cover title done by: KateAnn21
