Some people could read minds; others could control fire. But out of all of the amazing powers in the world, Emily Houston got the lamest: changing percentages. Sure, it was useful if her phone died, but that was pretty much all.
That is, until a small alliance comes to her and decides to 'recruit' her to join "The People with Useless Power." They really kidnap her. Mega oof.
There she meets an insane woman, Mara, who's the owner and the leader of the organization- who has no regard for anyone and acts painfully formal to friends and family.
She also meets Emma, a pink-haired menace to society and notorious player who should always be walking in front of an explosion wearing sunglasses and flipping everyone off.
Will she escape and reunite with her family? Will Mara brutally murder her? Will Emily find love on the way? How many sociopaths are in this story?
