Their mission was simple; take over the Pims lab and find out what they were creating. Nathen thought it was simple enough until KP came along and stopped them. He's holding them captive to Midtown, and he and Tom must find a way out. When the failing town finally gets a new resident, they see her as their golden ticket, and the sacrifice they'll need.
Midtown was falling as a place to live, but Carly's parents didn't mind moving there even though she heard the rumors of something going on. She knew something was off but just didn't know what. Now that they've demoted their Uptown status to Midtown residents, she wanted to find out just why people stopped going there, and why should she be so cautious.

Suspicious agents in suits roam the streets without an explanation. They're staring straight at me. The new Chemistry teacher is NOT who he says he is. I'm doing things I never thought I could. Like, mutant-level things... Lauren, Luc's dead twin sister, hid something from everyone. Something important that may have lead to her demise and that could lead to ours. Hunters are in town. I never knew four words could contain so much dread and terror. I'd rather deal with the Wanderers. I'm on the brink of a breakdown. I need help..." BOOK #2 IN THE SERIES! Ignorance is not bliss... In the wake of ridding Oakwood of Wanderers, other dangers come creeping in and they're somehow linked to Luc's absent twin. The past returns to haunt the mutants in inconspicuous ways. Riley's life is yet again in jeopardy, but this time she's not alone. Luc and his family are all thrown into the teetering balance. More secrets are uncovered. A trap dawns on them all. Invisible threats start crawling from all directions. Who is the real enemy? TW : behaviours of depression and PTSD are displayed. I don't name them, but one of the character will be struggling a lot. It may not be suitable for everybody. Other adult matters are briefly included, but nothing explicit or intense. Rewriting specifications : the main points of the story and end of the book will remain the same, am just going to change a few ways of getting there and adding some extra spice.
