Mystery
Blythe Adams hadn't been expecting much when she moved to George Station. It was, after all, a plain and neat university town, full of normal people with normal lives. After searching for a job and not being able to find one, she enrolled in a mysteriously well-paid drug testing job. Her and 13 others move into the dorms in Northwall Laboratory, all the while being 'studied' to find the effects if the drug, supposedly a 'memory enhancer'. But people keep experiencing strange side effects, and Blythe wants out. You can only take so much blood spillage after all. And when people start dying, the survivors realise this is more than an experiment. It's a game. They are the players. There are no rules. There are no survivors. And they aren't the ones rolling the dice.

Alexia Lambre had never been a truly 'normal' girl, because she had always had the added 'bonus' of telekinesis. At least, some might call it a bonus. Alexia would call it a curse, because throughout her entire life she worried about someone finding out about it and taking her away. Someone did find out about it, but not the government like she assumed would happen. She was soon offered a place at what was called 'The School,' a place for people like her to learn about their powers. When she arrived though, she learned otherwise. She makes friends with the other kids, and they all join up against the scientists at the school, those that like to do tests and even experiments on them. Will the group ever escape the school? Or will the appearance of a new teen and 'experiment C' do them in?
