-Thanks To my co-write Cait (who did most of the work(We Love You Caitlin!)) :)- BTWs, I own nothing in here. Even Caitlin who owns herself. The only thing I have is Me, Lexie and a few minor plot twists... and those pumas... everything else is the property of whoever made Avatar The Last Airbender. I've never been all that big on adventure. Sure, in my head I was the greatest adventurer who ever lived, slaying demons and taming dragons and what have you. But when you're actually there, and you realize that you're not just there but a Mary Sue too.... well that actually sucks. Awesome in its own way, but nobody wants to be a Mary Sue, or a Gary Stu or whatever. Oh right, I'm getting off track here. My name? Not Mary, that's for sure, but it generally depends on the story. See, if I was to introduce myself in a Japanese or another Asian styled world by my English name....that would be weird.... so I pick a name that I figure fits. Today my name is Amaya. Why? Well, I liked it. And I guess it fits. The name means "Night Rain", and it fits because well, I woke up in the middle of a forest in the middle of the night....and it was raining. Funny how that works huh? Also, I'm a waterbender. Neat right? I guess. But I digress. I should really get to the story right? Well, like I said, it was a rainy night, and I was cold, lost and alone....

Piano keys were her childhood, but the grasp of a pistol was her reality. Polish SOE Agent, Natia Filipska, has lurked among the rubble and the shadows of her occupied-Warsaw for years, ever since the war started and ripped her from the life that had guaranteed happiness and opportunity. The SOE took her in, as well as her two siblings, Klimeck and Ryzshard, arming them with a fighting spirit, and a chance at survival, at a life where they could avenge the ones that were taken. Being apart of the Cichociemni came next, Elite Polish Paratroopers, and it was their ticket home. Ever since her feet had then touched the ground, she had been fighting with her home and her people - the Polish Home Army. The Warsaw Uprising got her captured, and then being on the run nearly got her killed - her only ally was the pistol at her side. The Dutch Resistance of Eindhoven, Holland housed her, but it would never be her home. Upon liberation though, her path crossed with an Airborne Infantry - the 101st Airborne Division - the Screaming Eagles - American men. To ensure her safety back to Warsaw, Poland and her family, Easy Company and their men might be her only hope. But hope was lost long ago. ------------------------- " Well, I've been 'fraid of changin' 'Cause I've built my life around you But time makes you bolder Even children get older And I'm gettin' older, too...." - Landslide, Fleetwood Mac ---------- mature themes are held within the context of this story that may be triggering to some people: death, smoking, alcohol, killings, and severe depression, along with mental health issues. --------- band of brothers + oc's { October 2nd 2020 } UPDATES BEGIN - Fridays starting 10 - 2 - 20 started: 7/4/20 ended: 3/15/23 ------------------------ NEW COVER!!! done by ME!!! credits on words by @swedeandspicy

{Original Story} Vidya Khan is an anomaly. Her powers manifest when she's seventeen -- that's unnaturally late. Things get even weirder when Celestro, the enigmatic company responsible for all things super, offers her a spot on their elite hero team. Saving the world is complicated, and Vidya is struggling to keep up. The Marvels are not the same smiling, golden heroes they are in the media, and getting along with them is actually harder than fighting the villains. And as if that isn't bad enough, supers are turning up dead, and no one knows who to suspect... Because if Vidya has learned anything, it's that anyone can be the bad guy.

Percy Jackson was once a hero-a legend who defied the gods and saved the world. But heroism came at a cost. After the war with Gaia, he was stolen away, dragged into the abyss of Tartarus, where he suffered unimaginable torment for 200 years. When he finally escaped, the world had moved on without him. His friends-the Seven-were dead, their names lost to time. Olympus was silent. He had nothing left. Now, he wanders the streets of Gotham, a city as broken as he is. Haunted by memories of war, suffering from PTSD, survivor's guilt, and nightmares, Percy is only a shadow of the warrior he once was. When Batman finds him, a background check reveals a shocking truth-Percy Jackson was reported missing over 200 years ago. Beyond that, he doesn't exist. Taken in by the Justice League, Percy undergoes a medical examination that leaves even the most hardened heroes stunned. His body is covered in scars-evidence of centuries of suffering-and his mind is fractured, drowning in grief and trauma. The entire League, from Superman to Green Lantern, stands in silent disbelief. The Young Justice team struggles to understand the shattered figure before them, the man who was once a hero of myths and legends. Only Wonder Woman and Aquaman recognize his name, remembering the demigod who once carried the weight of the world on his shoulders. But Percy is no longer a hero. He is a ghost, a relic of a forgotten past. He has no purpose, no reason to fight. And yet, something in Gotham calls to him. The storm still rages within, the power of the sea still thrums beneath his skin. Perhaps, in this city of shadows, he can find a reason to keep going. Perhaps, if he stays long enough, he will remember what it means to be alive.
