Melissa is leading a normal life. Well, reasonably normal-- as normal as having one of the five most intelligent children on the planet can be. She is living out her life comfortably, at the very least.

But the letters start. Only one or two at first, but soon the postman is delivering them by the bundle; something extremely inconvenient for her. These letters, however, hold a frightening truth: Melissa is being hunted. For her abilities, after a millennia long feud, the abilities that she didn't even know she had.

Doing the only thing she can after escaping, she follows the letters instructions. And they lead her to a life she could never have imagined. Making new friends and new family, and losing some along the way, Melissa and her daughter fight for a cause that they aren't so sure that they believe in anyway.

FAMILY TIES.

Please stop following me. You're only going to get yourself hurt. 


They're fine with me, because I'm willing to do anything to help contribute to the cause. But they know that they won't be able to convince you that what we're doing is right. They'll kill you, and Shannon. That is, if Riley doesn't kill you first. Look, they'd kill me if they knew I was telling you this. But you're my mother. I'll never forget that no matter where I go. 


I'm not going to try and convince you to stop working with Riley. And yes, we learned about that. You might want to check something because I think Lincoln is still keeping tabs on you and reporting back to Alex. Working with Riley might seem like a good idea now. I'll tell you from firsthand experience; get out of there, now.
