In this society The Voltage is where everyone wants to be. To get there you either have to be born into it or face Time, the trials the people of The Flood face when they turn 19. If you fail you go back to The Flood to die, if you succeed you move to The Voltage where you get a job and make millions. Charlotte Ava is turning 19. Which means one of two things, 1. She succeeds in the trials and moves to The Voltage leaving her mother, sister, and her little brother behind, or 2. She fails the trials and she is killed. Loss isn't an option for Charlotte, because her mother is dying and when a parent dies the eldest sibling takes the others in, but Charlotte wants to be free. Henry, his twin brother Tristan, and their sister Kathrine have always wanted to find someway to destroy the trials, but never managed to. Their parents died when Henry was 10, he was the second eldest so he and Tristan became Katherine's responsibility. Henry wants to be free. In this tale these two will cross paths, but will they be able to over come the challenges that the other brings? Will they be able to finally be free from their awful government? Or will they be thrown to the rats chopped into little pieces?
