One day, Apocalypse came to pass.

   It started with a fog that engulfed the world. Thick and heavy in the atmosphere, nearly unbreathable to humans and able to corrupt a soul. It killed livestock, pulled buildings to the ground and deadened the soil. 

  After a month, shields were erected over major cities to keep it out, but by then humanity could no longer see the sun.

     Next, they disappeared - the citizens in shieldless towns and the towns themselves - completely consumed by the fog. And in their place came monsters, beasts that craved human flesh and blood  and knew nothing but destruction.

   In a matter of days, only half of humanity remained. . . but they didn't plan on going down without a fight.

[Male Reader x My Hero Academia] The advent of Quirks changed society fundamentally. It was the birth of a child in Qing Qing City, China that nearly brought about the end of civilization as it was known. 'Meta Abilities.' Abilities that held the potential for great good, but inevitably great evil. Human nature quickly bore its ugly head, as it always did. Those with the power to act, and with the proclivity towards criminal activity, quickly viewed their new gifts as an opportunity to exploit the weak. Even while remaining the minority of the world's population, the onslaught of Villains came close to destroying society... Almost a century later and the world remains alive and breathing, and Humanity is thriving. Normal people with their own Quirks, those who refused to allow their friends and family to get taken advantage of, rose up against the tyranny of Villains. Vigilantes quickly became world-renowned Heroes and the tides were turned. Problems remained but peace had been achieved once more, and the world could rest well knowing that Pro-Heroes were around to keep them safe. And yet, this peace could never have lasted forever. The new generations know little of the horrors of the past, unaware that evil remains alive and well. Pro-Heroes are little more than pompous media personalities, with little interest in saving lives, but instead on fame and wealth. A great Villain lies in wait, counting down the days when he can finally seize retribution for what was done to him. However, this time he has a secret weapon. A weapon that could herald the end of all things...

Beneath the Shadowlanders

50 parts Complete

We knew something wasn't right from the moment we awoke. It was like something was missing - a part of our very souls - and we couldn't sense the deficiency, no matter how hard we tried. A hundred million eyes adjusted to the dark all at once, all surprised to be awakened so soon. We ran through our checklists of limbs and senses, drawing ourselves out of our dreams piece by piece. Some went back to sleep, unaware, unbothered, too tired to notice the difference. Some lay in bed, too anxious to stand until the light of dawn crept through their windows at last, and they were sure the monsters in their closets had gone back to sleep. Some leapt from their slumbers, more keenly aware than others that the missing pieces were important. But we didn't know. We couldn't have. Not until we found ourselves standing in the light and discovered: We no longer had shadows.
