(Undergoing a major rewrite,) Life has certainly given those who take risks like these, the necessary battle scars. I didn't ask for this. But I knew what I was signing up for. I finger a gash on my mask, where the light alloy was cut through. Was I prepared? I never knew what would happen. Of anything. Back then I had done it with such little fear. Desperation is the mother of all bad decisions.... >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Self-forgiveness is a hard thing. In a time where superheros and vigilantés are hunted instead of criminals and the corrupt by the goverment, bountyhunters brave enough to take on the super- and incredible beings rise. Pacifia joins their ranks in an effort not to starve and to get away from her invisible past , where she is almost always helpless and only noticed for the wrong reasons. But after she gets to know one of her targets, she realises that having a thick skin is not the same as self-forgiveness. Cover by blush112.

After a careless scientific accident with new elements, people with supernatural abilities began to surface. Society adjusted, and social norms changed. Heroes and villians surfaced, making the world more complicated. Fast-forward one hundred years. Neera Sanchez fights for her survival as a supervillain. She does what she can to survive, inadvertently making her a target for the heroes. Behind her mask, she struggles in personal battles, alone. When her abusive boyfriend and her own fight against depression overtake her, she's introduced to the world of superheroes. Vincent Ciobanu is a new hero at a local base. He introduces himself to the ex-villain and takes Neera's focus away from the pain and suffering she had been used. Neera grows as she gets used to her new life. Times change and things shift for the worse as Neera's ex, Koen James, comes back into her life stronger as a supervillain, threatening the peace of the world and the freedom Neera discovered. ⚡️⚡️⚡️ Neera's eyes closed and her chest rose as she breathed deeply, trying her hardest to focus her power on the heroes nearing her. She opened her eyes, watching intently as the heroes slowly crowded on the rooftop around her. The moon illuminated their serious masked faces and flashy suits, giving Neera the opportunity to figure out what powers they might possess. She kept her eyes halfway closed and studied them. Most of the suits were at least 75% black. One hero stuck out in her blue suit. It had no black on it. Neera was wary of the color of her suit. /How did I end up here?/ One of the heroes had surprised her with a lucky hit almost a minute ago. She had felt the impact and acted on it, diving to the ground. She had a better fighting chance against the six when they were caught off guard. And if one of them had the ability to purify water, it would all go down hill. ⚡️⚡️⚡️ Romance; mental-health awareness; superheroes; abuse
