He can see the smile which graced her elegant features as he used the word, but the image is overshadowed now; curtained with her expression of psychotic devastation, upon realising that she did not wind the handle on the box enough. Eventually, that ballerina had to stop spinning. To her, that was a last chance at perfection. To him, it was the last drop of her sanity. ∞ Adelaide and Tim are what is considered royalty, among their grade at Gotham Academy. Perfect couple, perfect personalities, perfect scores, perfect looks, perfect skill, perfect families, perfect reconciliation, perfect friends. Just, utterly, flawless. It's so perfect, that it effortlessly hides the truth. Broken families, a superhero team, disorders, death, enemies, lies, illness, masks, hate and deep, dark secrets. Only one of them understands that their unity is a front for what is really happening in the corners of sick minds. But every time Tim looks at her and sees how scrambled her perception of herself is, he can't help but take her by the hand and try to guide her through everything. When Adelaide looks at him, she doesn't understand why he's willing to settle for second or third best. He can outdo them all. The team, and his predecessors. After all, he is perfect.... What a prize. ~ I do not own Young Justice. All rights go to the owners.

Mahiko is a survivor of experiments carried out by the scientist who stole Doctor Magnus' Metal Men project to use on teenagers. To protect the new hero, Platinum, he sends her to join the Team; a group of young heroes that includes Mahiko's ex-boyfriend Jaime Reyes. Things start well; she reconnects with her old flame, finds a new home in a mountain, makes close friends, gains a mentor and establishes herself as a hero. But, nothing is ever perfect. Her father, the leader of a prestigious Japanese family simply wants his disgraced daughter to do as she's told. Her mother remains in a coma, in Doctor Magnus' town where the other Metal Adolescents envy her freedom and die slow. An organisation of criminals of the grandest type are in consort with an evil alien race. Jaime is starting to lose control of his scarab. Yet, the greatest darkness, seems to come from inside Mahiko herself. And perhaps, Doctor Magnus was wrong about her being so unaffected.

War. Death. Conquest. Famine. The Four Horsemen of the apocalypse. Of course, they're not to be mistaken for the literal apocalyptic Four Horsemen, for it's only the name of their team. However, whilst they may not be the Armageddon-sent Horsemen, their aliases still strike a stone cold, petrifying fear into the cores of their enemies and allies. Chase, Jordan, Estelle and Lucas however? Well... they're about as terrifying as Mike Wazowski. Meet the protagonist of the book; Estelle Aveline. Or, as she is more commonly known as; Conquest the Horseman. No one knows Conquest is a female, because she's more so the stay at home in her pyjamas and hack the President's computer or SHIELD for kicks kind of girl. She is though, the most important member of the team. She holds the other three boys together. So when Victor Von Douche burns down the Horsemen's public mansion, steals $3.2 million from them, ruins and demolishes all their computers and manages to give severe burns to War in the fire, what are the Horsemen to do? Hunt him down of course. And whose help do they unfortunately need to do so? The Fantastic Four. Yet in the midst of war, what if the Horsemen's identities are finally revealed? And what if, after all these years, a certain flamboyant hothead conquers the one part of Conquest that she never thought possible? Her heart. ***I obviously do not own any Marvel or comic characters. I only own the Four Horsemen, the plot, and a few characters that appear later on in the story.

"My hands are stained with dirt. And they always will be." ~ Lillian Nightshade; assassin, Captain America's girlfriend, and number one magnet for bullsh*t and bad luck. For her entire life, she's been told what to, who to kill, who she is, and what she's meant to be. And now? Thanks to her history of daddy issues that could rival Shellhead's, she finds herself kidnapped by father of the year Loki Laufeyson and held hostage in a realm far from her favourite boy toy's reach. Asgard. Struggling with her own sense of identity whilst simultaneously trying to escape the clutches of a god with fabulously glorious hair, by the time Lillian finds herself returning to the world she knows, she begins to notice a suspicious amount of change within it. HYDRA apparently died with the Red Skull, SHIELD hasn't fallen, the battle of Braga never went down, and Steve Rogers doesn't seem to remember her. It's almost as if she's... Gone back in time? Between balancing the timeline, trying not to spoil the future, righting wrongs committed the first time around and dealing with a butt tonne of family drama, Lillian simply can't catch a break from all the bad luck she attracts. Throw a familiar metal armed World War II soldier turned HYDRA weapon into the mix, and the Nightingale might just be in over her head. In spite of it all, will the two complete opposites, Steve and Lillian, find their way to each other's lives once again? Or is their romance lost, a faded memory stored away for rainy days? For she may have their love to light the way, but where there is light, there will always be its older sibling. Darkness.

I only half of the plot, Lillian Nightshade, Samuel Hemmings and a few other characters that appear later on in the book. All other rights are reserved to Marvel and DC comics.**

"Show me a hero and I'll write you a tragedy." - F. Scott Fitzgerald ~ Victoria Morana Kingsley is average in nearly every aspect of her life. She isn't a great fighter. She isn't a brilliant genius. She doesn't have the greatest paying career. And on top of it all, she's not the most social butterfly in the world. There is, however, one teensy tiny thing that separates her from your average human being. She can talk to the dead. Although, they're not the most stimulating source of conversation in the world. Necromancy is a magical art as old as time itself, and in a time of Gods, magic and super heroes, being discovered for what she is, is the last thing Tori wants. But upon finding a man with a metal arm collapsed in the snow on the side of the road - who five years prior tried to kill her - not being discovered for what she is becomes all that much harder. Throw a budding, complex romance into the midst, and you have the beginnings of a story of grisly chaos, black magic, old friendships, witch hunts, death of various kinds and irregular love. For true, unrequited love, is not finding someone who silences your demons, but whose demons dance well with your own. ***I obviously do not own any Marvel or comic characters. I only own Victoria, the plot, and a few characters that appear later on in the story. All rights are reserved to Marvel comics.

"Trouble is my middle name." ~ Lillian Nightshade is a metaphorical rock in SHIELD's boot, one that not only has a mouth snarkier and more sarcastic than the hypothetical (and entirely impossible) baby of Tony Stark and Deadpool, but has a certain knack for slipping from the authorities' grasp on a regular basis. She's arrogant, she's witty, she's satirical, she's immature and she's one of the best damn assassins in the industry. Steve Rogers is the hero every man wants to be. He has a strong sense of duty, honour, dignity and humility, with old fashioned, idealistic goals that would make the world a better place. Some - namely Stark - would call him a stick in the mud and make a mockery of him by pinning him with obscene names like 'Fourth of July Stripper' or 'Walking Flagpole', but in the end, he's America's sweetheart with a golden legacy that will last for generations. So it's only natural that the two complete opposites - who are also each other's enemies- to clash the moment they meet one another, yes? Filled with action, revenge, old adversaries, humour and of course the lovely drizzle of a bipolar romance, this is the story of how a narcissistic assassin falls for one of Earth's Mightiest Heroes. Her enemy.
