Shadows & Fire

The 65%: Shadows & Fire

In a fractured world where 65% of the population is born with extraordinary abilities, the balance between power and control teeters on the edge of chaos. The Oversight, a shadowy organization claiming to maintain order, uses its elite enforcers-the Guardians-to suppress dissent and crush rebellion. To the public, they are saviors. But to those who know the truth, they are executioners.

For siblings Adonis and Akari Nakamura, the truth hits home when their parents are murdered, framed for treason, and branded as enemies of the state. Forced into hiding with their best friend AJ Singh, the Trio stumbles into the underground world of Exodus-a rogue group of Echoes fighting to expose the Oversight's atrocities. Their survival hinges on secrets carried by a flash drive, a mysterious vial, and the weight of their growing powers.

Adonis, believed to be powerless his whole life, discovers the terrifying potential to mimic the abilities of others-abilities he can never fully control. AJ's super speed becomes a double-edged sword, pushing his body to its limits as he fights to keep the Trio safe. And Akari, burdened by her monstrous shapeshifting, begins to fear the cost of her power.

As the Trio trains with Exodus, the lines between hero and villain blur. Old betrayals surface, alliances shift, and the looming threat of The Guardians grows stronger. But none of them are prepared for the darkness awakening within Adonis-a power tied to death itself, one that could tip the scales of the entire war.

In a world where freedom demands sacrifice, how far are they willing to go-and who will they lose along the way?
