This is a Darkest Minds fanfic.
I highly suggest you read the original The Darkest Minds series by Alexandra Bracken BEFORE you read this because it takes place during the events of the first and second book (The Darkest Minds & Never Fade)
Watching the 2018 movie version starring Amandla Stenberg is also recommend.

The Darkest Minds: Red
I.A.A.N.: Idiopathic Adolescent Acute Neurodegeneration. A disease that affected all children between the ages of 8 to 14. Over 90% of the population died of the disease. Those who survived were given powers. Each power corresponds with a different color. Greens are geniuses. Blues are telekinetic. Yellows are electrokinetic. Reds are pyrokinetic. Oranges are mind controllers. Reds are relatively rare. They possess immense destructive potential. Therefore, they are used by the government to destroy and execute multiple people. However, one managed to change the doctor's mind. At 16 years old, she was sent to Caledonia, along with other Psi children. There, she blended in with the other children. One year later, the breakout happened, and she escaped with a group of kids just like her. My name is Lily Anderson.
