Exceptional

In 2022, the United States commissioned a group of scientists to experiment with genetic mutations. Their goal was to create a serum that would alter the human genetic code, making the subject stronger and faster. But not only had they created a super serum, but also an airborne virus. By 2025, seventy-five percent of the world's population had perished.Ally is an Ordinary-a human who is immune to the virus. She lives in a settlement outside the City with her mother and twin brother, but lately it doesn't seem to be enough. She is wrestling between being with her family and volunteering to move to the City, where she can work for the Exceptionals.Luke is an Exceptional, a superior human being. His ancestors were infected with the virus and lived through it, leaving their super human strength and special abilities to him. He has never given much thought to Ordinarys, despite pressure from his father to choose one from the ORC. But all of that changes when he meets Ally . . .

Ally is finally outside the City walls, with her brother and her best friends. Luke is still inside the City walls, with no memory of the girl he once loved. Life in the Wilderness is dangerous, and Ally and her friends soon find out that they are not alone. Will Ally continue her journey to the Southern City, or will she risk it all to help the boy she loves?

"I think your issue is less about localized behavior and more about human nature. I've seen the history books. Someone always has to be better. Someone always has to conquer. "Ally and her friends are once again leaving the comfort of home and setting their sights on the Southern City. Does it exist? Will Ally find what she is looking for?Someone will become Exceptional. Someone will die. New friends will be made. Old friends will be lost.
