She has everything a girl could ever wish for except for her father's love and a happy childhood. Being a rich kid not always gives you a free ticket to happy life. As a kid, Sky was bullied and taunted for being rich in school. Her father never treated her like his daughter, denying her from any chance to know what father's love really is. When she is humiliated in front of the whole school instead of defending and comforting her he sends her to a faraway military school where Sky grows up into a strong girl shedding all her weaknesses. Not only she knows how to stand up against bullies but she also knows how to kick their sorry asses. After staying away for past five years, she is called back to her hometown where people still think her as a skinny spineless girl who is too scared to fight back and not to forget her father who expects her to be his heir. What will be their reactions when they find out that the girl they have been expecting has transformed into a fighter, who doesn't take shit anymore from anyone even from her father? Will Sky accept being an heir to her father? Will she once again be the target of the bullying and oppression she once faced? Will she let everyone walk all over her again? Well, she has one answer.

"My sweet pea... You're going to do great things," he whispers in my ear. All of a sudden, I feel a rush go through my body. I can hear Michael's heartbeat again and I can't stop staring at his neck. I can feel myself start to sweat as I can't resist the urge much longer. "That depends on your definition of 'great'," I say and quickly grab him by the throat. I push my fingers into his throat in order to cut off his airway and limit his breathing. "I'm going to kill you and everyone you've ever known. I will rip them, piece by piece, and make them plead for mercy," I threaten and make my grip on his throat tighter. The look of fear in his eyes fuels my confidence even more. I then look at the side of his neck. I can't resist the hunger anymore, and he knows it. "Jess, don't! Please! I thought we were allies!" He struggles to say. "You thought wrong," I say and sink my teeth into his neck. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A story told by a not so nice young lady named Jessica Rose. *Warning this book has mature content, read at your own risk* *Slowly Editing*

The two instantly become allies, and try to figure out the mystery that is the native species. With more investigation into the planet Exion, the two teens find that there is nothing natural about animals that kill for sport and mysterious powers like telekinesis and levitation. The planet is covered with a chemical that seems to mutate anything living. The planet is more of a testing lab than anything else, and maybe the reason nobody knows about it is that something went horribly wrong.
