The Seven – Chapter 1

By: Cait Marie

Hello, hello! As some of you know, I work and write for Coffee House Writers. Well, I am revamping and republishing a story I started a couple years ago! A new chapter will be published every other week. I look forward to hearing your thoughts!

Excerpt:

It is said that on the seventh full moon of the year of the Strexlar comet, the power lines are stronger than ever. The comet only passes once every ninety-eight years. Those with the ability to harness the power use this time to their advantage. It is a long and dangerous eighteen months for those without power.

I woke up in a haze of confusion. My eyes fluttered in the brightness above me. I blinked through the fluorescent light, taking in my surroundings. The eerily white walls and the narrow bed I laid in gave little indication to my location. Tubes and wires connected to me in various places. I tried to sit up, but as soon as I lifted my head, searing pain shot through me like no headache I’ve ever had.

“Don’t try to move,” a woman’s voice said from my left.

Check out the rest of the first chapter here!
