12 (A Novel) is a novel I am working on and will be my first book. I came up with this idea while thinking about the twelve disciples of Jesus Christ. The novel will be a supernatural story (as all my ideas usually are), and will be about twelve young people that have God given powers from birth. This idea is loosely a modern retelling of the events that occurred with the twelve disciples. The twelve young people also all represent the twelve disciples: 1st - Peter-Simon Houston (Simon/Peter), 2nd - Andrew Houston (Andrew, Simon/Peter's brother), 3rd - James Howards (James, son of Zebedee and John's brother), 4th - John Howards (John, James' brother), 5th - Philip Clarkson (Philip, from the Bethsaida of Galilee), 6th - Nathanial Rhodes (Bartholomew, son of Talemai/Nathanael), 7th - Matthew Jackson (Matthew, the tax collector), 8th - Thomas Scott (Thomas/Didymus), 9th - Jamie Towers (James, son of Alphaeus), 10th - Jude Ryans (Thaddeus, traditionally identified as Jude) 11th - Simon Richardson (Simon the Zealot), and 12th - Judas Parker (Judas Iscariot). This story will also mention the descendant of the disciple Saint Matthias, Matthias Crones (Saint Matthias, the disciple that replaced Judas after he betrayed Jesus). This is basically about the 12 (disciples) coming together against an evil organization that will stop at nothing to wreak havoc on Earth.
They were born on the same day... born in the same year... they're known as 12. The 12 that God gave supernatural abilities, and they are descendants of the first chosen 12 (the twelve disciples of Jesus). The 1st is Peter-Simon Houston, with his power of premonition, knowing, and connection with spirits; 2nd is Andrew Houston (Peter-Simon's fraternal twin brother), with his power of time manipulation; 3rd is James Howards and his twin brother John Howards (the 4th), with their abilities of thunder and lightning; 5th is Philip Clarkson, with his power of earth manipulation; 6th is Nathanial Rhodes, with his power of molecular manipulation; 7th is Matthew Jackson, with his power of telekinesis; 8th is Thomas Scott, with his power of healing; 9th is Jamie Towers, with her ability of telepathy; 10th is Jude Ryans, with her ability of wind control; 11th is Simon Richardson, with his ability of teleportation; and 12th is Judas Parker (with his unknown abilities). Lead by the Spirit, the 12 protect the world from the darkness that tries to consume it. But one day, darkness becomes too strong as the Last days come upon us. It is up to the 12 to stop the Dark Shadows and rid the Earth of its evil bondage.
I am very excited about writing this book. I feel that it will have a really good message in it and I think people will enjoy reading it. Stay posted for more info about 12.
