It started with Leah and me walking to the library; it seemed as if our lives revolved around that place. Suddenly we are intercepted by a boy running straight at us, stopping only to catch his breath. "Some Blackburrow students just broke into our school! They're in the science wing!" He panted. Follow students at the C.U.B.E as they prepare for the annual festival, a competition with their rival school Blackburrow. The school is just like any other, but every student has a little something special.

Jasmin used to believe in alchemy and her grandfather's stories about it. But as she grows older, she too grows up and considers his tales a myth for kids. That is, until she turns seventeen--with her life put in danger--and she is forced to start believing in the existence of magic again. *** When Jasmin's life is in danger, her father decidedly enrolls her in Altheria Academy to protect her. It turns out that Altheria Academy is not just an ordinary school--it is a training ground for students like Jasmin, who has special abilities. Little by little, Jasmin realizes that everyone in Altheria Academy is protecting her from their enemy, the Raven Clan, who wants her power. But what if she discovers that her power is far more extraordinary than she initially thought? What if her ability can either save the magical world--or destroy it?

Paraphrased excerpt- I looked around the school yard, at the lush trees and dying flowers. The nip that was in the air was fresh and crisp. Hundreds of people were lounged out in the yard, soaking up the last rays of sun before the winter finally came full force. Out of the hundreds of people I was only looking for one person: Nalia. My eyes ran across the crowds in sweeps until I spotted a girl with brown hair, brown eyes, brown skin. "Nalia!" I started running across the yard, dashing around people that kept getting in my way. My path was blocked only 10 feet ahead by Hallie Baker. The high heel wearing, nerd crushing, mean, bullying b*tch of the school. "Woah woah woah where you going at such a quick pace slut?" I could smell her fake bubblegum perfume oozing off her body. "To my sister dim wit. She's behind you waving me over." Hallie brought her hand up. "No that's not what I asked. I asked where you were going. Not to whom." She popped the lid off of her Starbucks cup. She maneuvered it until it was placed right over my dirty blonde hair. "So prepare for punishment." She flipped the cup over. The sensation of water didn't wash over me though. I looked up at the cup. There, above my head, was all the liquid in the cup. It was suspended in mid air, by the silence of the crowd. I focused on the liquid. It moved in front of me and up, up, up until it was over Hallie's head. I could see the gasps and dropped jaws from my classmates. I was doing this. No one else. Me.
