Showing results for "The Elements" in Difficult Situations

One year after going public, Elle, Meen, Teena, and Tal have become symbols in a national debate about powered individuals. Living in hiding on a Kansas farm, the four girls are summoned to Washington to testify before a Senate committee as Congress prepares to vote on the Protection and Integration Act—a bill that would require registration and monitoring of all people with abilities. Elle is Deaf and commands the wind. Meen is blind and controls fire. Teena has cerebral palsy and moves the earth. Tal is autistic and shapes water. Together, they are the EleMenTs.

With school ending, Alowen is ready to break free from her quiet life among farmers and hunters in the Arbor. She aspires to see the rest of the Element; the wise air people in Wolken, the mysterious water people in Allurus, and the creative fire people in Baccha. Alowen’s wish comes true when she is selected to attend the famous Element Party in underwater Baccha. She never imagined she would have visions pulling her to the middle of a forbidden love affair. Now she and her friends are running for their lives.

Three months after escaping the tunnels beneath New York City, Elle, Meen, and Teena find themselves under constant surveillance. Prometheus Applied Sciences hasn't forgotten them, and a new operative named Sarah Miller has infiltrated their lives as a volunteer at the group home. Elle is Deaf and commands the wind. Meen is blind and controls fire. Teena has cerebral palsy and moves the earth itself. Together, they are the EleMenTs—three teenage girls whose names encode their identity and whose powers defy explanation.

Hi, I’m Lyric. And I’m kind of a mess. ADHD, that’s me. I’m a high school drop-out, late everywhere I go, and one screw-up away from being homeless. I’m a loner, and I like it that way. After my mom died, I figured life couldn’t get much worse. I thought it might even get better. I should’ve listened to the rumors about evil spirits. About the angry, ancient magical creatures haunting our small Oregon Coast town. But did I? No. That was my first mistake. And it might be my last. ‘Cause now, I’m in a battle for my life.
