The year is 2320 AD. The world looks more than a little different now.
Human civilization is mostly divided into three settlements, Sectors One, Two, and Three, each 100 miles apart. The heavily armored bullet trains run to and from each settlement, connecting the three in a perfect triangle. Each settlement is surrounded by fortified walls, a sky-shield, and military forces to keep the people living inside safe and keep the dangers of the fast-evolving world out.
One of the most recent developments in the last few generations has been the rapid evolution of the common pest. Insects that were once small enough to swat on your arm have reached mammoth sizes, and despite the massive change, they still gravitate towards human crops... and humans themselves. With humanity already pushing its limits to survive, the sectors united their brightest minds to find a creative solution to save their precious, limited food resources and themselves.
So they invented a pesticide.
Testing began in Sector Three around seventeen years ago and proved to be successful. The giant insects were turned away from the fields outside the sector and to everyone's surprise, they had a bountiful harvest that year.
However, a pesticide of such intensity doesn't come without some unfortunate side effects.
Something in the chemical affected the vulnerable children of pregnant mothers who ingested the food that otherwise, looked healthy and fruitful. When the children were born the effects began to slowly reveal themselves in the form of various, irreversible and uncontrollable powers. As the children grew older, their abilities only became more powerful and more dangerous.
Parents who've taken their children to the best doctors and scientists have been told that there is no cure, and eventually, the children's powers will consume them, by death, madness, or something else. But the scientists who pioneered the invention of the powerful pesticide think otherwise.
It's a race against time to find a cure.
