If you could have any superpower what would it be? Flight? Super strength? Or maybe your "creative" and want shapeshifting abilities. Either way almost everyone wants superpowers and to be some kind of hero, only it's once you get these "wonderful" abilities that you realise you don't want them. That contrary to your belief, you can't control them.

power-less
Throughout all of history there have been stories of people with powers and abilities. Stories of gods, heroes, monsters, demons and angels. What would you do if one day you woke up to find everyone had gained their own unique powerset? The only caveat... For whatever reason you never received any powers... Like, at all. Well, that is exactly what happened to me. At least it is what I thought happened to me. This is the story of all the things that I have done to receive my powers.![[2] Diverging Paths: Percy Jackson, Harry Potter, and the Chamber of Secrets](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/77348601-256-k293976.jpg)
[2] Diverging Paths: Percy Jackson, Harry Potter, and the Chamber of Secrets
[2] Diverging Paths: Perseus Jackson, also known as Percy, left his first year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry feeling happy and confident that he had actual friends. However, that was before they seemed to forget all about him. He at least had his brother, Harry Potter, but he too had gotten no letters from their friends. Then one day a small creature wearing a pillowcase showed up in their shared bedroom and told them that they absolutely, positively could not go back to school under any circumstance. Of course, the small creature wearing a pillowcase was resolutely ignored and they went back to school to start their second year anyway. Then things started to go wonky, what with all the strange voices and massive spiders. But then things got even stranger. Water seemed to bend to Percy's will and he kept feeling as if the forest was watching him. DISCLAIMER Note that I do not own anything that was created by J. K. Rowling or Rick Riordan.

ωμέγα (Omega)
Percy Jackson. Everyone loved him, saw him as their saviour and hero, but not anymore. They started to fear him, fear his strength, his skills and powers. Why? He didn't know. Why a few stayed by his side though all the hurt and betrayal? He didn't know that either, but one thing was for sure: He needed to go, so he did exactly that, just that he wasn't alone, like he originally thought. He still had his family, at least a small part of it.Complete
Amaurosis
[Nico di Angelo x OC] Completed! "A life for a life. So, I gave her half of mine." For twelve years, she has kept herself hidden, detached from the crowd, preventing any mingling as to protect them from the danger only she and few others knew existed. And for twelve years, he had sworn he would find her. He had sworn an unbreakable oath. He had sworn on the River Styx. He was the manifestation of her dreams--no, her nightmares--, but new allies have surfaced. She is not alone anymore. And they must do everything in their power, combined forces, to ensure not only their survival but the entire world's. However, it is kind of difficult to do that when the most important piece does not trust you. But why should he? She is a safe to which no one knows the code--the unknown, and people tend to fear the unknown. Nothing about her makes sense. But she can inflict the amaurosis. ☆ Disclaimer: I do not own any characters or places displayed in the Percy Jackson series nor the Heroes of Olympus series.
