The preservation of life
So often the justification
For taking it

Humans...elevating those that keep guard
Until they watch...too close
And the so called hero...
Condoning the very act
He would condemn

Transgressions of the past
Shape actions to come
As offspring turns into adversary
Yesterday's loss...lead to madness
And god becomes tyrant
Becomes outcast
Becomes dust

As factions dissolve 
And form
And lust for power
Enslaves all

Such foley
And futility
In the grand design

Curious, how lines
Once clearly defined
Become...blurred

Book One of The Chronicles of Villains Series In a world where superhumans walk among ordinary people, their incredible gifts are seen not as blessings, but as curses. Once celebrated as heroes-defenders of the weak and protectors of the planet-they have now been cast aside, forced into the shadows by a humanity that feared them. Betrayed and broken, these once-noble figures have become villains in the eyes of the world, their unity unraveling as they struggle to find purpose in a society that turned against them. But when a power greater than anything they've ever faced emerges from the depths of the universe-a force merciless enough to annihilate anyone who dares to stand in her way-the lines between hero and villain blur once more. In the fight for survival, will they reclaim their place as protectors? Or will the world that once condemned them witness its destruction at their hands?

They say in the end we always pay for our sins, that when we reach those pearly gates and judgement falls that we will repent for our ways and justice will be served. That by only believing in HIS sacrifice are we truly ever saved. But... what if you are the sin itself... what if your very existence was a sin... an abomination stained onto the fabric of the world with no say nor choice of your own. An anomaly placed within the hands of the ignorant to wield as their weapon of choice. A damned creation in search of a salvation that will never be your own. What if... despite your beliefs... you could never be saved...

'Gotham.....I'm in Gotham.......I'M IN GOTHAM' Yes, yes you were 'What, what the actual hell is happening, is this a dream? Am I de'- You looked over towards the alley you just emerged from 'No....no no no no no no no' You slowly made your way deeper into it 'Please, for the love of whatever deity exists here please don't be him' You found the body 'Please be a copycat, don't be the real.....don't be...' You slowly turned over the body of the man that attacked you, the man you killed "Oh..... Oh no" The face paint gave him away, as you looked into the now dead eyes of the man. That classic maniacal grin spread across his features even in death. You just killed the Joker. Now with almost every hero and villain you know gunning for you, either for their form of "protection" or to just kill you, only one thought crossed your mind. "Well Fu"- *Currently being re-edited since the beginning of this book has some spelling mistakes I have over 1k reads, am I famous now? Can I like, be a jerk and get away with it? Look at all these PEASANTS, THEY DON'T EVEN KNOW A KING IS AMONG THEM-...I need some time to calm down this happy feeling in my chest. Btw, I don't own any art in the story. If the owner of any pictures in this story want me to, I will take those pictures out and replace them. Thank you. It's my first story as well so it probably won't be that good compared to other stories like this, but I hope you enjoy. My goal is at least 69k words, I'm such a maniac. Also I just realized I spelled Harley Quinn as Harle Quin in tags, and now my stories next to a bunch of Seven Deadly Sin stories.

The Reaper King by JustAnoth3rG0d
12 parts Ongoing Mature
The illusion of life and the desire for power often cloud us. They change our views, bias our hearts, justify our wars. But even though power demands payment, will that stop you from fighting for your dreams? In a universe where gods run rampant, mages decide the flow of history, and eldritch horrors hide in the darkest crevices of creation. Power and the right to command it and its consequences is earned, bled for, died for. Does the fire of hope shine bright, or does it burn black? Where evil boasts its name aloud and good slinks away wretchedly in the shadows, will you bend your knee? Or will you ascend and join the mighty legends? What is a king to a god? What is a god, to a non-believer?
You Never Cease To Amaze Me, Bats by Zana_Zoola14
1 part Complete Mature
At first, it was a regular night for Bruce as he went out through the night as the dark vigilante, Batman. As time ticked by, the night grew - stranger - beneath the bat signal's light, was a note. From the Joker. Months pass before Batman is seen out on the streets again. But he's different, strange. But most importantly, what is up with his eyes? ----- In this world, Batman doesn't have a Robin. He never has. He sticks to himself; even the Justice League don't see him. No one sees Batman without a mask except Alfred. Batman is darker, already slightly twisted in the head - he's spent his whole life, fighting people like the Joker, people who don't deserve his pity. So he doesn't give then them any. He holds grudges even beyond the memory of others. He hates asking for help. ----- "You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain."
