It all began with the first stone. It seemed simple, just a small, smooth green stone with a few gray lines in it. The girl who picked it up, Melanie Cooper, thought it would look cool with her basketball uniform. Three days later she discovered that the stone allowed her to manipulate water. She began to research the stones as best she could. It turned out that she wasn’t the only one who had found one of these stones.
The stones each had a magical power connected to them.. The stones only react to some people. It seems there is a special protein in their blood activated the power in the stones and then bonded to it. Once they have been found they can never be lost, stolen, or given away. The only one who will ever be able to use the power in the stone is the one who first touches it.
When she became an adult, Melanie decided to build a school for other teenagers who found these stones. She remembered what it was like to discover she had unleashed this power and knew how scared they would be. She used the second stone she had found to locate them, and bring them to the school, hoping that she could help them. She still runs the school, and it is still helping people as much as possible.
However, others have discovered the stones. They don’t have the protein in their blood, they can’t use the stones, but they know what the stones can do. They are demanding someone come up with a way that will make it so they can use the power in the stones too. Still others have begun to use the stones for evil. Doing whatever they would like, to whoever and whenever.
And then there are stone carriers themselves. These creatures are not human, or of any other species humans are aware of. They are the ones who drop the stones where they know the one meant for them will find them. Some of the stone carriers have turned. They’re dropping stones wherever they liked, and the one’s meant for the stone never find them. The stone will still bond to someone else, but destiny won’t be happy with it.
This wasn’t what the stones were meant for. But it’s what they’ve become.
