The saying goes, "With great power comes great responsibility." It also comes with those looking for it. Lucy Taylor is a fifteen-year-old girl. At the young age of five, she was orphaned and separated from her twin brother, Lucas. Since then, she's tried to move on from her past and live an ordinary life. But she's not your average fifteen-year-old. She's one of a small portion of the population with the distinctive ability to manipulate her genetic blueprint with a thought. As a result, Lucy presently lives as a subject for C.R.E.F.T. C.R.E.F.T., Creating the Future for Today, is a multimillion research organization with the primary aim of unlocking the world's secrets and incorporating it into human society. They'll do whatever it takes to reach this goal even if it means enslaving children to become lab rats. A call for help and a life-changing revelation motivates Lucy to revisit her past and search for her long lost brother.

  • The Superior Rebirth: A Hero's Awakening

Imagine the second you're born, a consultant removes you from your mother's grasp and runs a battery of genetic and physiological tests on you. Thirty minutes later they give you a score out of one hundred which denotes your level of perfection. If your score is above eighty and you work hard to maintain that score you will have a charmed life; well fed, well-rewarded, spoiled. But fall below eighty and you're labelled Flawed, and life will not be so kind. Hannah is adopted by a Flawed family when her birth parents choose their social standing over their daughter and endures a life of struggle, hunger and service. One day Hannah is escorted to the regional government office and told that the Consultant who delivered her, who labelled her Flawed got it wrong! Now, she is being relocated back to her birth parents, to live as one of the Ninety-Five- all medically and legally judged as perfect. Entering this new life Hannah has an impossible decision to make which puts not only hers, but the lives of everyone she cares about at great risk.
