Brianna Acero and the Second One's Return
79 parts Complete One hundred years ago, war threatened the existence of humanity. One man's actions might bring it back.
During WWV, battles weren't won with bombs, but with science. Specifically, with DNA. Now, a person's place in society is determined by their genetic code. If your Gift is as mundane as knowing what time it is without needing a watch, you're probably a Norm, but if it's so extraordinary that it's considered a danger to the public, congratulations, you're an Elite.
Seventeen-year-old Brianna Acero doesn't fall into either category. She is the only girl in the world who has no Gift at all.
When life throws her a curveball and Brianna finds herself living among the Elites, she begins to uncover layers upon layers of secrets about her own past, but there is one secret that was not meant to be unlocked. Now, there is no way of putting it back in its cage. The Second One is back, and this time he won't be so forgiving. His actions could bring about a new world war, and the end of Gifted society along with it. Only Brianna is unique enough to stop him, but will she rise to the challenge?
Revenge is a dangerous game, and not everyone is ready to play it.
