Excerpt from the book: "I know you, boy" the man growled, the gleam of the knife he held alerted Zeke of the danger he was about to face. "Your glowing eyes give you away, you're a Special. You don't belong here." Zeke stared the man down, he could hear Perse breathing heavily behind him; he could tell she was very, very afraid. "We want no trouble, sir." He said carefully, trying to avoid battling this man. "We're just passing through." "Oh I don't doubt it." The man replied. "But you are all freaks and don't deserve the powers you are given." He began moving toward Zeke, his gaze threatening. Suddenly, Zeke was grabbed from behind by a pair of muscular arms and they held him firmly in place. "I know this won't kill you, but I'll certainly enjoy it."
