Powerless but Infinite
A young man found himself in another strange situation. Thinking that it was another one of the challenges his legal guardian made, the young man didn't panic... until he saw a doppelganger of himself using his abilities... and he couldn't use his own. Fortunately, he wasn't alone and five powerful people were also in that strange situation. Unfortunately, those five people also lost their own abilities and had hostile doppelgangers who could use their own powers against them. Will he and the five people find a way to survive? Or will they lose against their own abilities? (Just a random story I made to practice my fight scenes and to give my readers something to read while I'm on a long loooong break.)Complete
Nightlights: Guardians of the Edge
Ajax Holdren didn't think his life could get much worse, until a pretty girl with a sword decided to fight a monster right outside his house. But it turns out the monster is after him, and she's what passes for a guardian angel. They call themselves Nightlights, and they use the remains of alien technology-- and magical swords-- to fight the living darkness that preys on sentient life. They live in a tower discovered by humanity a thousand years ago via portals controlled by the tower itself. And the very best Nightlights are young adults. Most of them begin the training as children... But once Ajax meets Natalie, he can't go back, can't pretend the monsters aren't there. The power awakened inside him-- and his own relentless need for a place-- drives him forward. But stepping through that portal takes him into a alien world, where the walls talk and the sun never shines, and humankind's worst enemy isn't the monsters who stalk the street but the people who make them.

Hybrid: The Awakening
Nobody expects something supernatural to happen to them. Those kind of things only happened in comics. Fairy Tales.

After each finding a strange alien artifact, the teens are suddenly thrusted into an intergalactic war. Alien species everywhere are trying to hunt down the most powerful weapons in the galaxy. And they are the ones in possession of it. When they run into a girl that claims to be from another planet, the three kids learn about the power given to them and the responsibilities that come along with it. Instantly, they are the most popular people in the galaxy. And for once, popularity couldn't feel more like a curse. Fighting grudges, fear, and distrust, the Chosen humans must travel to the one place on Earth where they might be safe. And with strange new powers, the teenagers struggle to live in the unfamiliar world they thought they knew so well.Complete

From Darkness Comes - Book 2 in the Ash and Ember Series
She survived the end. But it's only the beginning. Ever thought escaping Earth meant survival. Instead, it meant sacrifice. She lost her parents, her sister, and the two boys she loves-left behind to an uncertain fate. Now, on a distant planet she never asked to call home, Ever reunites with the brother she thought was dead. But this new world is not the refuge it promised to be. Her sister's haunting last words echo in her mind: "Your friends may be your foes, and your foes may be your only chance for survival." With her memories fractured by reimaging, Ever struggles to tell truth from illusion, ally from enemy-even within herself. As a genetically modified human, she carries a dangerous secret: she may be the only woman capable of creating life. To Environettix, the ruthless corporation pulling the strings, that makes her their most valuable-and most vulnerable-target. And she isn't the only one. The other Mods brought from Earth are caught in the same web of lies, their very existence exploited for an agenda darker than they ever imagined. But the planet itself holds secrets of its own. And Ever is beginning to realize a chilling truth: they don't belong here. And when something doesn't belong, it's only a matter of time before it's erased. *This is Book 2 in The Ash and Ember SeriesComplete

Super Shenanigans
This is my first story! It's kinda an Eeveelution Squad AU, but none of the characters are Pokémon and instead just humans with powers. Am I trying to create the best story ever? nope! I'm just here for a good time and trying to make something fun. Hope you enjoy!!! Also, we should probobly say that the story is somewhere between a slice of life, science fiction, comic, a script for a comic and sitcomComplete
Book 1: Veil of Shadows
I'm Ivy Hilton, and I screwed up. Big time. One, I'm one of the most powerful wizards in my world, and the next, I'm half-magic, stranded in the mortal realm, and fighting for my life. Why? Because I thought I could outsmart another wizard who's just as stubborn and reckless as I am. Spoiler: I couldn't. Now, the only way to get home is to find some mythical place called the Garden of Stone. Yeah, it sounds made up to me too, but it's my only shot. Oh, and did I mention there are powerful beings-disguised as humans, of course-who want me dead before I can even get close? Fantastic, right? My magic's running low, I've got no allies, and the longer I stay here, the more I realize that maybe this whole mess is way bigger than me. But hey, no pressure. If I fail, it's not just my problem-it's the end of both our worlds. So yeah, no big deal.Complete
