Dark Vision

Dear class,

I'm reading Dark Visions by L.J. Smith. There are three books in the trilogy. It is about a psychic named Kaitlyn (Kait). Kait has a reputation of being a witch because when ever she draws something, it comes true. She doesn't just randomly draw them, when she draws the drawings, its not really her drawing it, its her psychic sense. The other reason (I think this is a weird reason) is because of her eyes. They are smokey blue, and at the outside of each iris, and in the middle, were darker rings. People thought they were strange eyes, evil eyes. Eyes that saw what weren't meant to be seen. She accepts an invitation to go to the Zetes Institute, where she can start fresh, with 4 other teens with psychic powers.

The part that I'm at, Kait, Gabriel, Rob, Anna, and Lewis (all kids from the Institute) are in Oregon looking for "a white house at a cliff with a beach". They found out that Mr. Zetes and Joyce (people in charge of the institute) are evil. They are trying to use the psychic powers for something bad.

Some character motivations I noticed:

  • The only reason Kait wanted to go to California to the Zetes Institute is because she thinks that her psychic power is really bad. She thinks that she isn't predicting things with her drawings, she's making them happen. She wants to learn how to control her psychic power and she wants to start fresh. Apparently, they also offered her a lot of money for a scholarship to whatever college she wants when shes done at the Institute.

  • They ran away from the institute because Joyce and Zetes are evil. They are trying to kill the teens. Kait and Rob found files in Joyce's office. They said: KAITLYN BRADY FAIRCHILD PROJECT BLACK LIGHTING and there was one like that for all of them. They found another one that said: SABRINA JESSICA GALLO, BLACK LIGHTNING PILOT STUDY. Then there was the word TERMINATED. Then they found out that Sabrina and the other kids in the pilot study went insane and Zetes is controlling them.

Thats all I have read. Thanks for reading my blog!!!
