flickerandswayFor the most part, Zoey’s world is much the same as ours is, here and now. People going about their lives, with the internet, television, radio, movies, etc, etc. No magic, no ghosts, nothing of that sort. BUT rarely, so very, VERY rarely, there are those born with the ability to manipulate elements. Not all of the elements, of course. The only ones born are those who can manipulate water, and those who can manipulate fire. Hydrokinetics are incredibly rare. But far rarer are pyrokinetics.
And as is the case with everything that is rare and has power, there are those who seek to control it, who seek to create it and manipulate it and use it for their own ends. And this world is no different. This organization, so secret that not even those who work for it know all there is to know about it, is known only as Genesis. Those that are sought after by them call them by far less savoury names. Genesis hunts elementals, captures them and brings them to the labs scattered about the world to serve as subjects for their experiments. And their hunters are relentless, willing to do whatever is necessary to bring down their prey and return them to where Genesis thinks they belong. They had nothing to do with their creation, but it doesn’t stop them from thinking of elementals as theirs.
Genesis’ main lab is located in London, behind seemingly benign, innocent set of wooden doors in a nondescript building. It is this lab that serves as both the prison for Zoey’s parents, and for Zoey herself. It is this lab that Zoey leaves in burning wreckage in her wake, the unknown leaders of Genesis furious and in hot pursuit.
