Beyond the Field

Rowan lives in a divided society, the poor are not allowed to interact with the rich. There are so many rules, the rules are supposed to keep her safe. The world is said to be perfect. But ever since her friend, Carlos De Luca got murdered by the Leaders because he had powers, like everyone else who had been born with them. Rowan starts to realise that the world she has lived in her whole life is not what it seems, it is wrong, and it definitely isn't perfect. And now there were rumours, rumours that say Carlos is still out there. Beyond the wall. The wall that surrounds their community. Keeping them safe from the outside world. Finally she escapes the borders and ventures into the Field beyond. Hoping to find a new place, a place accepting of the people that have been cast out. A perfect place, an actually perfect one. She's happy to be out of there in the Field, with people like her, people she meets on her journey, a place away from her broken "perfect" world. But it feels weird. Being able to break the rules without hiding. Rowan hates to admit it but some part of her wants to go back, to where it's safe.
