'Destiny', an inescapable concept of how things go. We are all bound by 'destiny', having our stories written for us, from the time we are born and the time we die, as well as in between. But what if I told you that 'destiny' can infact change? That some are able to write or even rewrite what happens. That would be the case for two particular boys whos destinies seem to be undecided. Especially when it comes to their heritage, meaning so much more than what meets the eye..
-Funni disclaimer: This book may bring up things like trauma, death and blood, a bunch of fighting, depression, and eye stuff (surprisingly not that rare in this book), so if you're uncomfortable with that, you probably shouldn't read this. Don't say that I didn't warn you!-
This story is about the journey and painful struggle (as well as backstory and lore) of two of my OCs, Daniel Raioster and Oliver Raioster, two brothers with special abilities involving their eyes. They each go their own separate routes. Daniel, wanting peace and going by kindness, and Oliver, wanting war and going by hatred. Inevitably, Daniel has to fight and defeat Oliver in order to stop his reign of terror, and determine his own fate, the fate of others, and the fate of those he loves.

*****
Cash West formed the Seven 20s - a gang of six overzealous teens with guns - to keep his tiny, crime-infested town in nowhere California safe. His methods are unorthodox and frankly illegal, but the town loves his Robin Hood heroics. However, the gang gets more than they bargained for when the Mendoza cartel rolls into town, determined to knock them off the map. As the threat hits closer to home, Cash has no choice but to team up with his ex-girlfriend Tiana's neighboring girl gang, the Hearts of Spades. Soon allies become enemies, families get trapped in the crossfire, and romance brews as Cash fights to unravel a massive conspiracy that puts everyone that matters to him at risk. When the stakes are life and death, will the gangs be able to overcome an enemy more powerful than any of them could have predicted?
