~PARAGON CINEMATIC UNIVERSE: PHASE 2, BOOK 7~ *This novel serves as the 7th and final novel of Phase 2 and a spin-off of "Mastermind".* "Look.....I know this whole 'dysfunctional family' thing's got you bogged down lately. And I think it's clear to me that you know what you want to do; you just haven't figured it out yet. So, come on! Let's go on an adventure to find your birth mother! What could go wrong?" -Erica Shields Ariel Axilas is a young African American woman who is wise beyond her years. So wise, in fact, that she has earned herself a full ride scholarship to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and an opportunity to continue chasing her love for engineering. Deep down, though, she hides a secret; five years prior, she was the victim of a freak lab accident which granted her superhuman speed.....speed that she refuses to use in the present day for personal reasons that only she knows. Instead, she has decided to conceal her abilities and continue her studies at MIT in Cambridge, Massachusetts, with her superpowers remaining unknown to everyone, friends and family alike. However, with the advent of superheroes around the world-as well as the ever-increasing guilt whenever someone is hurt through her failed intervention-only time will tell if she ever learns to come out of her shell. One of Ariel's close friends suggests that they go on an adventure to find Ariel's birth mother, who allegedly disappeared from her childhood under debated circumstances, and she initially agrees.....but when a familiar face from her recent past turns up again and tries to talk her into using her powers to serve their team, Ariel must make a decision: should she forever remain in obscurity and maintain her life of normalcy, or will she finally come out of the shadows and use the gifts she's been given?

In a time long gone, a sinister force unleashed its wrath upon the world, shattering the bonds of brotherhood and unleashing untold chaos upon the land. With powers beyond reckoning, this malevolent being brought the world to its knees, leaving nothing but destruction and despair in its wake. The Enchanted War was then declared, a desperate bid to stop this inferno-born villain from enacting his dark designs. And so began the hunt for his son, the offspring of fire and darkness, a quest that would test the mettle of the bravest and most skilled warriors the world had ever known. __________________________________________________________________________________ Sorry for going on such a long hiatus!
