Summary of Judgment: Volume I

GAMA (G.enetic A.lteration and M.utation A.ssociation) was founded by the parents of Amy Madison in their pursuit of a cure for the disease atrophying her body. GAMA scientists abused their genetic knowledge on unwilling subjects who then developed unanticipated abilities. The resistance protects these escaped “brethren” from GAMA’s attempts to reclaim their subjects. GAMA asserts that the abilities are natural defects linked to brain dysfunction—effectively discrediting anything brethren might publicize against them.

Mary Lalley alias Dove is a sympathizer who organizes a safe house for brethren including Nighthawk, a known murderer who was born blind. His sight was so enhanced by GAMA that it is impossibly painful for him to see in daylight. Rose spies on her abusive boyfriend, a GAMA employee. The impetuous pillow-fight-starting Force joined GAMA’s program in order to be given the power to be a hero for his sister but upon failing, was discovered by an ex-GAMA employee now known as Jack Frost.

Dr. James Gandon, Dr. Cher L’rue, and other members of GAMA begin a program to alter neurological code. To the public, they offer criminals mentally rehabilitated into slave labor but for themselves they aim to instill loyalty to their organization. GAMA’s influence is worldwide, but so is that of the resistance and the balance of power is continually shifting.

(EDITED to be the full summary)

http://zellie.bigcreepymansion.com has a sample chapter if anyone is interested in helping me out with that as well--I'm happy to return the favor (:

I don't think the thirteen lines apply to summaries. I think they can be as long or as short as you want them to be so there is no problem with that.

You asked about the underline in your other post.

I've changed it. That was my bad. There isn't one for underlinig. You'll have try bold instead.
