The story: Married couple Andy and Vicky have a dilemma.

When they were in college, they were involved in a failed, dangerous scientific experiment, because they had extraordinary powers.

Poisons were tested on them and the results aren't pretty.

Andy and Vicky have been in hiding since.

Now, they are realizing that their young daughter Charlie has inherited those powers and that makes her very dangerous as well.

Charlie doesn't know what is going on with her and while being in school is tough on most kids, it's even worse for Charlie.

She can usually work through her anger but one day at school, after being bullied, Charlie loses it.

The result gets her parents worried and they scurry to find a solution before Charlie kills someone.

Knowing just how powerful Charlie can be, things get out of hand quickly, sending her parents into desperation and panic due to being found by the very people they've been hiding from.
