The brunt of it was, the heroes were an unknown, and people don't like unknowns; that's what made them dangerous.
No one knew where they came from nor how it happened, just that one day, somewhere someone was born a power. And then more and more children were born with powers. Silly little powers. Powers that couldn't really do anything.
And then one day someone somewhere thought they would see if they could fly.
A Hunger Games meets X-Men science fiction novel.

Barry's life
Two people fall in love in unlikely circumstances. They have a lot of psychological issues and mistrusts in the order of things to prevent them from finding themselves and each other. I am a reader of crime novels and hard science fiction almost exclusively, and yet this story, which I have been writing for a long time, is a love story, I can't explain it even to myself. The characters will have to work through hardship and evolve to be able to surrender to the magical things around them and the flow of the universe and the love of other people. This story still is a work in progress, it has holes and it is to be continued
