He lowered his eyes, as if to say sorry.
"Unfortunately, your powers cannot be taken away, but they can be controlled and harnessed to do some good in this country. I can help you, if you'd like. You don't have to be a hero if you don't want to, but you should at least learn to control your gifts in a safe environment."
"And why should we trust you?" Theo countered. Indi elbowed him in the ribs, scolding him for being so abrupt and rude. Maddix glared at his brashness, but she had to agree with him. They had no reason to trust this stranger.
"Because," Everett said with a hopeful face, "I just saved your lives." He had a good point. "Besides, you are all a lot more dangerous than I am."
**********************************
Power is a raw, untamable commodity that few can control. Even fewer are granted such potential. But those who are granted such capability must be wary.
This has become the reality for six teenagers living in Dorlos, a country held in a malevolent king's iron grip. They cannot risk exposing themselves by using their powers but, under masks, they are able to save people's lives and hopefully, save their beloved homeland from continual danger. To their dismay, this one power outlet could prove to be their downfall.
They are suddenly thrust into a world of lies, secrets, and betrayal. With enemies in every direction, they are forced to live by one simple rule: kill or be killed. Will they buckle under the pressure or stand strong? It is a fight for complete power, and they are stuck in the middle of it.

The Darkness in the Light
For over a hundred years, humanity has lived in fear of the monsters that roam the streets, lurking in the drains below. Women and their daughters hide, protected in their homes, while men take their sons through the world, teaching them the responsibilities of having a family to feed and dangers to avoid. No one leaves the home unless it's essential, and most of the world prefers it that way. Until one girl spends her days perched on her window seat, looking down at the world below and dreaming of a different life. Her eyes are always drawn to the dark, ominous drains in the street, the ones that often blink open to swallow and person whole. One day, that person is her little brother, snatched right in front of her from their arms of their father and gone forever. When a person is snatched, they never return, and life goes on without them. But she can't accept that. Breaking all the rules, all the things she's ever known, she braves the world outside her little townhouse and goes on a mission into the darkness to find her brother. Only, it's soon her that becomes the one lost to the drains. To survive she must rediscover her world, and in the process, rediscover herself. She will be reunited with old friends, gain new ones, find out deeper secrets about her past than she ever could have imagined, and learn that the world is even more corrupt than she always thought. *** This story contains sexist ideology, mention of cheating, some gruesome scenes, and a whole lot of monsters and darkness. It isn't overly mature... there isn't much explicit language or sexual scenes, but there is a bit of violence, so just keep that in mind... and despite all that negativity, ENJOY!Complete
