[Highest Rank #1 in #fictionalcharacters, 8/2/2018; #1 in #dramaromance, 3/7/2019; #25 in #teenagers, 10/2/2019] Abnormals are teenagers that have superpowers. Teenagers like me. My name is Lyanna, and my superpower is mind control. It's 2050, and the government has been hunting down Abnormals since I was born. They killed my parents when I was eight. They tried to capture me, but they failed. You may have though that after all those years, they would stop searching for me. But I know they haven't. I know this from the "Wanted" posters that are taped on store windows, on brick walls, nailed into tree trunks. I know that there is a list of the names of almost a hundred teenagers, with a bounty next to each of the names. My name is listed at the top. I have been forced to live on the streets for eight years. Eight years in fear, in suffering, and constantly on the run. But I've had enough of their mistreatment. Today, I'm turning sixteen. Today, I'm choosing to fight back. And today, I'm not afraid.
