"Hi, my name's Eli Moore. You might have heard of me, on the news, or seen me on Youtube. I hear I'm on Youtube. But you're not here because I was on Youtube. I know why you're here. You're here because the government are hiding things from you, and you should know the truth. There's a secret... A big secret. So many people have died for this secret... but I'm getting ahead of myself. Let me tell you how my twelfth birthday turned to hell, and how, now, nearly six years later, I'm on the run from the government with my four friends on a quest to find the truth before more people get hurt. Let me tell you about the things they've done, and the things I've done. The people they've hurt, and the people I've hurt. The mistakes they've made, and... the many, many mistakes I've made. Let me tell you about how so many of my friends died heroically to see a better world... Let me start at the beginning. It all started when I turned twelve. Up until then, I was a near enough normal kid..."

It's December the 25th, and I'm sat around eating Christmas dinner with my parents, my three younger siblings and my girlfriend. I'm wearing a stupid pink hat and I've spent the day watching cheesy Christmas films and playing kid's games. Sounds too good to be true, right? That's because it comes with a catch. From a fight with a dinosaur who wants to munch on Hamleys, to meeting myself from the future, impossible things are happening. Recruited by the Hunters, it's our jobs to neutralise the threat. It's a pretty easy job, if somewhat tiring... And then he came along... This is the battle that's the most tiring, that makes us want to curl up and sleep forever. We're hopelessly outmatched against a man who seems to be from another world. We're hired by the people who want us locked up and experimented on. We're running out of time. Oh, and the world's going to hell.

With dozens of Government Hunters stalking around, it doesn't take a genius to figure out that she's in danger. Things go from bad to worse when a Government leak starts feeding our details and information about our powers to near enough anyone, for the right price. So it's down to me, my four closest friends and our teacher to find the Six and bring her home safely before she gets caught. The clock is ticking...
