My name is Juliet. I live in a small town, in a small house and have a small family. But I want everything big. I want to live in a big city, live in a big house, with dozens of guest rooms and a big backyard with a patio, and I want a big family. I guess what I really want is a big career. I'm a singer. I perform all over town, which is not that big, remember. Mama says I need to calm down and be more grateful for what I have. And I am grateful. I love my town, the home I was raised in and my little family. I guess I'm just a dreamer, and often enough it comes out wrong... I should know better. <><><><><><><> My name is Josh. I work the company my dad planned to give me when I turn 21. He's in the slammer again. I just need to prove I can handle it. My mama died when I was six. I turn eighteen next month. I live in a small world. There's my little sister, my dad and me. Oh, and we have a dog and a horse. My sister is the only one who rides Pirate. I can't say much else, I'm pretty average. Some of those in this town just want to get out, but I want to stay here. I'm happy where I am. <><><><><><><><> Juliet just wants out while Josh is tied down. And while they are crazy for each other, sometimes back stories are erased as we write our futures.

WARNING: Smoking, violence, and killing are included in this story. Not intended for a young audience. It's 2075, and currently 11 billion people walk the surface of this planet. Out of that number, my hometown Chantless takes up 64,730. Out of that, one of them is me. A few years ago, the government finally realized they needed to do something about our population. So they decided to make a game out of it. They call it "Do You Have Talent?" They say it's a game show that puts people's abilities and talents to the test. To see if they are worth keeping alive. So far, I've lost my father, my friend, and my brother to this little "game". And I may be next. But I won't let that happen. For I have a trick up my sleeve in my own game. ----------- Jasmine is a 16-almost-17 year old girl living in Chantless, a poor town located close to the ocean. She seems like an ordinary girl, struggling to survive with little food, contaminated water, and a stub of a hand every day, but she has a secret no one else knows. Unexpectedly, she is chosen to participate in "Do You Have Talent?"; a wicked and ruthless game show created by the government to handle overpopulation. She meets Liz and Bryan, two other contestants who have also lost family members from this heartless monstrosity. Jasmine befriends them, and finally she has something to lose in her life. But when time starts to run out, she will be forced to make a decision; save her friends, or continue to keep her power a secret?
