As I look into his eyes, I feel something is wrong. And even though I know I cannot change it, I want to. I feel helpless. With all the power I have, I feel useless. I only hope it's nothing too serious..

"There were three things about which I was absolutely certain. First, I didn't have my cell phone. Second, my hands hurt from gripping the trunk lid closed. They would probably be useless to put up a fight. And, third—I'd made peace with myself. I already found out what had happened to Charlotte Jones…. I did the best I could do.

I'd made peace with myself… but I couldn't stop my body from trembling like a leaf. I was still scared I was going to die. Was I going to die?" *** Please comment about anything.

An Earth rampant with telekinesis results in isolated city-states forced to live beneath protective domes. Among the Americas, New Teotihuacan has arisen as the most powerful, thanks to its strict social classes and teenage fighting force known as masazin. A resident of New Teo's Worker City, Calli Bluehair loses her parents in a telekinetic storm caused by her little brother, Olin. Two years later, the siblings have five days to make final preparations for their last chance at a better life--Masa Academy and it's famous graduates, the masazin. If she fails, she and Olin will live out their last years condemned to the violent and self-indulgent underground of worker city. Those who survive the academy are rewarded with immortality. But only loyal citizens, ages 14-15, are allowed to register. Time is running out for Calli to prove that's exactly what she and Olin are, despite the accumulating evidence to the contrary.

Only then can she find John Deskata, who may not want to be found at all."
