Symphony Holt was born in a small, little speck on Earth, called Woken. Woken is a place filled with many - gifted - people. The difference between the rest of the world & people in Woken: They have superpowers & their superpower is determined by their zodiac sign. 

For example, Symphony's Aquarius & her super power is Telekinesis. Some are Scorpio and they have the ability to pause time, while others are Ophiuchus and can control gravity. 

They had a good thing going until the leaders of Woken decided to send 13 kids in the age bracket of 13 to 19 to leave their home town, drop everything & join the humans. Why? To make sure that the rest of the world is safe for people like them. The 13 are sent to a boarding school in the United Kingdom.

Was a good decision? What happens when the world finds out about them? 

Symphony's one of the chosen ones & she finds out things about her people she never thought was.

Default Genetics by BloodyBooMimi
2 parts Ongoing
Six teenagers. Genetically engineered. Organically weaponized. Publicly declared heroes, and privately ticking time bombs. The walking-talking equivalent of a biohazard weapon. The kind that reeks of sweat and streetlights and the unindominatable human spirit. The kind they wished they knew how to break. You see, they weren't born. Because life isn't as easy as crawling out of a womb anymore, with blood and serum and the warm exhale of a mother's love. No, it was far 'easier' than that. They were built - piece by piece, chemical after chemical, atom to atom - where scientists preferred fighting on which new type of atomic ray to experiment with next rather than the freaking Geneva Convention. Because, inside Helix Labs, lay the wasteland of glass and live wires and the unmistakable smell of a brand new, bioweapon. Was that a newborn cursed with a modified brain, heart, or muscle? Or did they prefer kidney, lungs or bone? No. Why? Because they weren't born...they were crafted, congealed, and set on a path of righteous fury. They were never given a choice, only the cold looming shadow of a power far greater than them when they decided to condemn the evolutionary design and man handled into existence their own path of 'heroism'. Now, these walking anomalies patrol the glass and grime skyline of Haem city, a place where chrome and corruption reek havoc side by side. Where sin and silicon are separated by a gap of letters and not materialistic gain. The mutagens call themselves saviours, the Authority calls them property and the villains refer to them as misguided. They were made to serve humanity, when they were never humans themselves. Welcome to the future, it's much colder than you think.

My Deceiving Eyes

28 parts Ongoing Mature

In 2239, added as an ingredient for rat poison, a disease began to spread rapidly through the air. Decaying the bones it attaches to, inflicting paralysis and organ failure while its victims remain conscious enough to feel the pain that follow. Two years later, a vengeful ex-scientist released another sickness. Those who were infected suffered severe symptoms that would alter them into aggressive and animalistic creatures. These two illnesses quickly combined, causing a huge outbreak across the world and Wiping out almost 64% of the human's population. They called this contagious and infectious disease, "the Bliss." Eleven years later, after hundreds of failed trials, the Serpent department has created a solution: children who are immune to the disease. Raised within the boundless white laboratory walls, Adrian Bordeleau is cruelly exploited to develop a cure. As he grow up, a voice began to eat away at his soul. Gradually making him question what is keeping him from breaking out of the facility and destroy everything and everyone who dared to deceive him. Once you get a taste of power, you can't go back - My Deceiving Eyes is heavily inspired by the song Brutus by Buttress. As well as the Flare from Maze Runner, Deep Root disease from Gemini Home Entertainment, and the Grimace shake incident. [SECOND DRAFT]
