"What defines you?" she asked, her eyes holding a glint of mischief, "what makes you who you are?"
A group of classmates meet together for a group project, but are startled by a strange librarian. A question us asked; "What defines you?" Suddenly, the classmate's lives are turned around as what they believe to be the building blocks if who they are are reduced to ashes. How will they live without their defining traits, talents and abilities? And what really happened that day at the library? Only time will tell.
