In a world where being different could get you killed, children can only hope that they'd be like the rest. Nearly every child is born with powers, and the few that aren't are seen as defects that are taken away to never be seen again. Penny has until her 15th birthday to develop her powers while her twin sister already had several years prior. The time ticks down until the day that Penny may never see her friends and family again. All the girl could think about was how this was probably how she would die. At this point, her only hope was that maybe they were all wrong about the fates of the unfortunate. But how quickly she'll learn to regret that hope.
