Killer Magic Academy
You either become brilliant, or you get killed. When Alyssa was invited to a boarding school to learn magic, she was expecting something out of a Harry Potter book. She wasn't expecting to become a master of a power and learn how to survive and fight with it. She wasn't expecting that most of the people in the school would kill the people with too much power. She wasn't expecting to be one of the most powerful students to ever walk the school. Everyone at Aptitude Academy has power within, and everyone in the school will either become brilliant, or be killed by the other students. Alyssa thought she was signing up to learn to help the world, but she has to master her power quickly, before the people who already have mastered their powers come after her. Soon, that becomes the least of her problems. There's a prophecy that everyone seems convinced that it's about her, a fight club that she accidentally signed up for, the dragon that lives in the arena, and the threat that terrifies the entire school. There's only one person who can stop the threat before it's too late - the subject of the prophecy. Unfortunately for Alyssa, no one knows how to stop the threat or what exactly it is. Despite the fact everyone seems to thing the savior is Alyssa, no one knows for sure, and one false attempt will destroy everything Aptitude Academy has ever known. You become brilliant or you get killed, or maybe both. Cover by: @Ari_forevComplete
Queen Geek
My name is Crystal. I always dreamed of escaping this small little town (also known as Enchantment) in New Mexico (and yea, that is in the USA) I mean, seriously. I'm going to the high school that everyone in my family has gone to. It's so repetitive. My life I mean. Get up. Go to school. Cheer. Homework. Bed. See how I actually said homework? Yea, I thought so. That is why I'm a geek. But a popular one at that. Yes, I am head cheerleader, and no I'm not Snotty McSnottypants. I'm actually really nice. ********** His name is Chase. (And btw, I absolutely despise him!) He does anything anytime and anywhere, and he is kinda the quarterback. Ya. Now. We kinda got teamed up for a project, and I seriously wished I was dead. I am probably the only girl in the town who can't stand him. He should go die in a pit. But I have to work with him, or I will fail. So, I guess I'm gonna have to live with it (or at least pretend to) before he drives me insane, wait. He already did.Complete
The Focus Effect
I see the world through different eyes--literally. Some people would say I have it all. I'm smart, have popular friends and my parents are loaded. One deadly weekend at the family lake house changes all that. When I wake up in a strange facility in the middle of nowhere, I'm told that I'm being held for the public's safety and that I've been given a gift. I can see threads of light around objects that can be manipulated to change ordinary things into new and, sometimes, unworldly contraptions. But to call it a gift? It's actually pretty freaky. But the facility director has got to be the worst. He's completely obsessed with unlocking my abilities, not to mention he's a psychopath. To make matters worse, there's this boy I like. I just wish I knew if I could trust him or not. Or maybe the better question is--can he trust me? I almost forgot to tell you the craziest part of all. I'm radioactive.Complete
