Pangea Academy - a Safehouse for those who are gifted beyond the realms of human possibility.
Years ago, the Verve-gifted were born. At first, it was pure chaos. Why wouldn't it be?
A baby who could make itself appear and disappear with a laugh.
A boy who could carry an entire car on his shoulder when he didn't want to go to the mall.
A girl who can walk through walls to steal a shelf full of toys she wanted for herself and her friends.
It was Capture and Experiment, Hunt and Kill, Hide and Die, or Capture and Control.
It still is.
We are part of the 20th generation of the Verve-gifted, being a rarity even among the gifted.
Problem was, being rare certainly came with consequences.

The Gift

I zigzagged desperately, panting, with tears rolling down my eyes.

Their Dreams, My Reality (Book 1 in the Mystic Dreams Series)
This is something I thought at like one o clock in the morning lol. This book is about a girl name Tessa who attends a school for the supernatural. Most people love their gifts, but Tessa hates hers. Where most people can only dream of having her gift, she would change out In a heartbeat. When danger strikes, it's only her gift that can be used to stop it. They put on shows to use their powers and learn to control them. They even have some fangirl moments. I mean what good is a story without the main character being a fangirl. And we can't forget the romance moments. Hey, I'm vic, I suck at summaries. I've had some positive feedback for people who made it to the story even after my terrible summary, so if you like this kind of thing, read ahead. If you have questions about literally anything, just comment. Have a great day!! Also I do not own the photos I use, and credits to the authors if I use references about books, but the story is original by me. Xoxo ~VicComplete
