A World Where Children Became the Enemy
Imagine waking up on your tenth birthday to discover you've accidentally erased yourself from your parents' memories. This nightmare becomes reality for Ruby Daly in a dystopian America ravaged by Idiopathic Adolescent Acute Neurodegeneration (IAAN)-a mysterious disease that has killed most children and left survivors with supernatural abilities. These powers are classified by colors: Greens with enhanced intelligence, Blues with telekinesis, Yellows controlling electricity, Reds manipulating fire, and the rarest, most feared Oranges with mind control abilities. The government's response? Round up all surviving children into "rehabilitation camps" that function as concentration camps. Six years into this crisis, America has collapsed into an authoritarian regime under President Gray. Cities lie in ruins, infrastructure has crumbled, and families have been torn apart. At Thurmond, the largest camp where Ruby is imprisoned, children wear color-coded uniforms that strip away their identity and face torture from the Psi Special Forces (PSFs). What makes this dystopia so chilling is how plausibly society turns against its most vulnerable. The propaganda machine works overtime to convince the public these children are dangerous threats rather than victims. Meanwhile, ordinary citizens struggle with food shortages and constant military enforcement, too afraid to question the government's actions.
