Born of Darkness...

"What the hell?" I took a step closer to the mirror, staring at my reflection in disbelief. The person looking back was still me, but at the same time it wasn't. I had the same thick, dark, curly hair. The same hazel eyes. The same olive skin with a light dusting of freckles (ugh) scattered across the bridge of my nose. But my curls were now streaked with highlights. And not the subtle, golden-brown ones that sometimes appeared during the summer. No, these were an aggressive, dazzling blond that went from the roots of my hair all the way to the tips. It looked like I had spent a full day getting my hair done in some upscale salon. Never mind that I had never set foot in such a place since the day I was born. My eyes appeared somehow wider and more luminous. The colour brighter, my eyelashes darker up against them. And, when I looked closely, my pupils seemed to be slitted almost like a cat. I looked down at my body. My skinny arms-which had always refused to gain any definition no matter how hard I exercised-were lined with flat, wiry muscles. My bony shoulders were now curved and smooth. My scrawny legs were toned like a dancer. I reached down and lifted my shirt, revealing two subtle lines running vertically down my perfectly flat stomach, hinting at the rock-hard abs underneath. My whole body was rippling with strength. Like liquid steel.

His wife is missing, his friends may be dead, and he is looking for answers... whether he gets them or not, we will find out together! This is a "choose your own adventure" style story, where readers vote to determine what happens next at the end of each chapter. Even if a chapter has closed for voting, feel free to leave any comments or thoughts you have. I'm making this up as I go along, so all input is welcome. New chapters are posted about once a week (or so). Read book one, "Power Shift" here: http://www.wattpad.com/story/6594672-power-shift

Two hundred years ago demons from hell ravaged the world.They came for earth, killing and destroying the place humans had lived in, not stopping for anything or anyone. The human race trained and created warriors who could fight the demons, but soon they realized that humans alone could not kill these things. To kill the monsters you had to be a part of them. So the Hunters were created. Half human, half creature. And even now today, long after the great war began, those Hunters still exist.

Charlie discovers that he can move things with his mind, Darren wonders why he's having so many nightmares about being on fire, and Alex is feeling a little electric. Are their new abilities just random coincidences, or are they a part of something much bigger?
