Ulysses dies at dawn.
    
  Well, that's the word on the street, at any rate, if you talk to anyone who saw what went down at Calypso's Bar the other night. Let me tell you, it wasn't pretty.
    
  Who is behind the thuggish band known as the Suits? What is Ulysses's secret? And what is hidden within the security of the Vault?

Gangs. A girl. War. Fights. Love. Hate. Death. All words to describe the city of Athens. The most dangerous city in the country. But only those who have been there know that. Athens is not a place for tourism. Not many people who visit, make it out alive. Vicki, 16, has finally found a home willing to adopt her after 6 years of jumping from home to home, family to family, foster to foster. Some were good. Some bad. Some could, would, and did the unthinkable. But now she didnt have to deal with that. But she had no idea of the secrets that the friendly "welcome to Athens" sign hides. Or did she? She wasn't ever supposed to end up in the system. Or end up on her meds. She remembered nothing of her life before 10 years old. She had always knew something was missing, but this? This was more than she could ever handle remembering. **** "Wow, I thought it was just you guys and Artemis." "There's a whole world of gangs. There are gangs in every country, some even I don't know as a leader." "Is it tough being a leader?" "Some times. Especially when I have to deal with loss. But I also give some opportunities to people who need it. I've even given a homeless man a small job and it set him up for life." "That's cool. Are the Zusians tyrants. I mean were they?" something about the name doesn't shake me. It's stuck in my head for some reason. "They more are now. There's speculation that a kid got out safe and will one day take back the leadership, but after seeing the wreckage first hand, I don't think anybody left it alive," he says it. But he doesn't sound like he even believes himself. "Did the kid get out? Is it even slightly possible?" "Between you and me. I helped her escape. I know she got out. But I don't think she lived long after we lost contact. Why do you ask?" "Something about the name... It is vaguely familiar but I don't know why. Maybe it's just my meds." "You might have just heard it before." *** Cover by @_scintillas

Little did he know, he would embark on a journey with Arthur. The goal is to survive. But would that really be enough? The two want answers and to be safe. But answers and most importantly, safety, aren't to be found in the Upside City; Also known as, Dreamaspira. Arthur and Bennett must both travel somewhere else, a place many speak badly of. The Undercity; The complete opposite of the Upside city; Truly a Dystopia, or so it looked like. There, Arthur and Bennett meet the Rulers of Mispair. Unexpected events happen. Will Bennett succumb to the mysterious woman apart of the Rulers of Mispair? Will the head Ruler of Mispair open up to Arthur? Aside from that, will the two best friends be destroyed by the Government? Arthur Bloomlock, and Bennet Thunderstorm have a lot to learn, a lot to discover, many mourning to do, a lot to lose, and particular people to love.

My tall dark hero died. Some say it was his gift that took him away; others say The Institution got to him. But either way, my destiny didn't die with him. I'm Amanda. My gift is to read the memories of the living and communicate with the dead. To The Institution, I'm a clairaudient. That makes me high on their list of gifteds who need to be normalized. The Institution is hunting down every gifted person they can find to... fix them. Its mission ripped families apart and had claimed one of the most powerful gifteds I'd ever known, the matriarch of my family. Now there was just me; a pregnant girl, whose closest remaining family was the ragtag group of gifteds formerly taught by her Grandmother. "Stay under The Institution's radar," was the first rule we all learned. And now I had a target on my back. But the bounty on my head is much deeper than that. I'm being hunted by The Institution under the orders one of its founders, my mother. And I'm not sure if it matters if I'm dead or alive. Dystopian Paranormal Fantasy -WIP
