In the city famous for having an excess of superheroes, Jackson can travel to the place they are created. 

Afraid someone will use his power for evil, Jackson keeps to himself, hiding his extraordinary abilities. That is, until his high school learns he has powers. They may not know what they are, but his life is still turned upside down.

Superpowers are always connected to a place, either in our world or outside it. And Jackson's world, both in and out, is getting more complicated. A shadowy society schemes in the background from the highest levels of Vera City's government. A locked door appears in the Library of Powers. The Writing Well sends a message. And someone is watching, perhaps even orchestrating it all. Jackson, however, has bigger problems to deal with, like pop quizzes, parties, and a snooping Principal. And even for the first time in his life, friends.

Maybe, just maybe, his powers being revealed was a good thing.

32 parts Complete
COMPLETED! ~ Stevie Jones gains powers in a world where having abilities is illegal. In order to protect her planned future, she must gain help from a stubborn vigilante. ~ My name is Stevie Jones, and I live in Havenbrook City. Population: 7-8 million. Crime Rate: very high. We have Deviates to thank for that. What are Deviates? Evil, violent vagrants with unfathomable abilities who terrorize our streets every night. They are extremely dangerous...and apparently, I am one of them. - Stevie Jones is a nineteen-year-old genius with an eidetic memory and an aspiration to become an engineer like her late father. Her future is in her sights, and she won't allow anyone or anything to stand in her way. But when Stevie mysteriously wakes up with superhuman powers, her future is suddenly in jeopardy. Desperate for answers, she searches for the one stranger she knows who can help her: a Deviate who once saved her life. Derrick "Dark" Harvard is a twenty-three-year-old Deviate with a blurry past. Living as a "freak" with glowing veins takes a toll on him day by day, scared that someone will find out his secret. When a girl who claims to be a Deviate randomly pops into Dark's life, he (defiantly) agrees to help her control her powers. But what he didn't agree to was helping her avoid being kidnapped by an evil group of Deviates that have targeted her for reasons unknown. Now Stevie and Dark must uncover the biggest mystery of their lives while avoiding Deviates with potent fire abilities. Can they find the truth before Stevie becomes a victim?

I should be dead. At least, that's what the government officials told me in the super-secret lab where I woke up strapped to a mattress in a windowless room...Sound problematic to anyone else? Like I told the psychos experimenting on me, I've got zero clue how I got my new powers, but I'm sure-as-shit not going to let them turn me into a deadly weapon (or squeeze me into a spangly jumpsuit). Problem is, I'm not so great at controlling whatever the hell it is I've become...Not to mention I'm on the run from my country for a teensy-weensy act of treason while being chased by a shadowy masked mute who may or may not have superhuman abilities too (but is definitely stupid hot under his off-putting disguise). I'm only 25 and my career choices have been limited to hero or villain. WTF?!? Indie Author Fangirl Moments: 1. SHORTLISTED FOR A 2021 Watty (WTF?!?) 2. A FEATURED STORY ON WATTPAD'S SUPERHERO LIST: GIRL POWER! 3. FIRST PLACE WINNER IN THE 2021 PUNK ROCK AWARDS, ACTION & ADVENTURE CATEGORY
