Going through my pictures, I went to the one that I had just taken, and the phone slowly slipped out of my grasp. What had escaped my notice before is that the couch I had taken the picture on was against a window, which showed the backyard of the house. But in this picture, it wasn't an empty backyard. No, behind my smiling face was another one, outside the window. It was his face. Covered with a black ski mask, watching me. *** All 19-year-old Layna wanted to do was forget about the guy that broke her heart, and move on with her new boyfriend Brian. But instead, she unwittingly attracted the attention of a stalker. Someone who had been watching her every move for a month, plotting and planning for the perfect moment when he could take her. What Layna never would have expected was that when he finally kidnaps her, she would have to undergo "The Test". The Test that the girls before her had gone through. The one they failed, and payed heavily for. Will she pass The Test or will she die like the others?

Cover by: @xLovEtoLivEx A group of misfits with extraordinary abilities are thrown into a world they never knew existed. In a world like this, a person who you think is your closest ally is, in fact, your worst enemy. Alex Walker knows this first-hand, or at least, he thinks he does. When it comes to trust you have to be careful or else you might end up in a situation you never thought was possible. Ignorance is bliss after all. Or is it? Andrew Jones might be able to tell you. That is if he lives to tell the tale. Then again, maybe death is the only way out. Unless your a misfit that is. - - - Blurb from the story! ------------------ Drew grimaced and said, "Fine, I will! I'll do it please don't hurt me! I'll do whatever you want!" He continued to yelp as the figure twisted his arm further. "Good," The smaller figure said as the taller one released his arm, "We want you to tell us everything those little delinquents do and don't let them realize you aren't one of them until he comes." At those words, my whole world turned upside down.
