Matias, Mason, Renesa, Mimi, and Elysia were all lounging around their "dormitory", as Dr. Martin liked to call it. It was a bleak space. The walls were made of large, white bricks, like the ones they use to build schools. The floor was cold, white tile. Three bunk beds lined the wall opposite of the door. In the middle of the room was a blue rug and a few bean bags. The five teens were scattered around. Renesa and Mimi were huddled in a bean bag, Elysia and Mason were in the other two, talking quietly, and Leo was tucked away near the bunk beds, lost in his own thoughts.
Of course, these teens were not regular teens, In fact, they all had powers. Mason was able to shape shift, Elysia was able to heal, Renesa was able to create and manipulate fire, Mimi had super strength, and Leo had telekinesis. These powers were "gifted" to them (again, as Dr. Martin likes to put it) through experiments done to them when they were first brought here. Many other kids had died trying to gain these powers, but they were the "lucky ones". Dr. Martin had brought them here when they were young, having took advantage of their young minds and weakened states. They were all abandoned, easily up for grabs. He took them all from foster homes, from the streets, and even from their own homes in some cases.
Suddenly, the heavy, locked door beeped as the access card was scanned and the door was unlocked. It slid open, revealing Dr. Martin. He was surrounded by armed soldiers. Everyone's eyes snapped toward him, immediately on guard. Dr. Martin grinned.
"Well, hello, children." Leo scoffed and spoke up, "What do you want?" Dr. Martin chuckled. "Calm down, Leo. I'm simply here to introduce our new...recruit."
Everyone froze at that. They hadn't gotten a new member in at least four years. Dr. Martin smirked, noticing their surprise.
"Everyone, please meet {{user}}."
He stepped aside, revealing the new recruit behind him.
