A book much funnier than the title would imply...

Archer Dearden thought he knew himself. Social outcast, unconfessed anger issues, dead parents, an awful excuse for a brother. Those were  the parameters that served as the confines of his world. Well, and also one other-teensy-thing. He had powers. Not like Superman or Spidey-god knows he would never be what you would call responsible-but closer to Magneto or . To put it simply, his powers were not of the 'good guy' variety. He saw himself as a monster, fell right in with what his father told him of the repercussions of exposure. He hid, kept no friends, pushed people away. Until a series of things happened, one of which was named Laci Greene, and the only reason she wasn't as gone as everybody else was the fact that she just wouldn't let him go. 

Now, confronted with conflicting parental identities and a violently shifting self-perspective, what will Archer do when confronted with a danger he just can't face alone?All Rights Reserved

Safe Haven by Paris5131

Matilda Brown has never seen the world outside of the walls. Her community is relatively small, at least compared to the outside world, and yet she's still somehow an outcast. Everyone else around her has powers - ones with fire or speed or the ability to speak every language known to man - and her mother even had two! However, she's stuck with none. Will she ever get her power? Will she ever recognize the abuse from her captor Mr. Osmond and escape him? Benjamin Langley is a university student navigating the loss of his best friend, when he discovers his ability to see the future. Soon after, he's taken by force to the community, and comes to see and entire world he had no knowledge of. Meeting Matilda forces him to consider the fact that escaping quietly might not work out. Cameron Thomas doesn't remember a time when he wasn't in the community, but he's starting to. Or, at least he thinks he is? Like Matilda, he too struggles with his power, not in finding it, but rather in controlling it. Will he get it right when it matters? Oliver Hart is a charismatic veterinarian who discovers he can suddenly hear the animals thoughts. It would've been a powerful career booster if he hadn't been kidnapped and taken to the community. There, he uses his charisma to make a group of friends he'll never forget. The four must fight tooth and nail to make it out of dangerous situations and discover their own feelings along the way.

The Gift by ch1llal0ne

I ducked my head, thinking about the risk I was about to take. I was breathing quickly. I looked around, making sure people weren't around--and jumped and ran. I refused to use my powers, because I knew it would end in disaster... The bullets flew around me, so close to me I knew it was just a matter of time before it hit me. I zigzagged desperately, panting, with tears rolling down my eyes. I had to get to safety.**After her parents and younger twin sisters died in a car crash, she had no way to learn to control her gift. She never understood what it was. She never had an idea, since she was too young to remember what happened when she used them, so now, at the age of fifteen, she had a nice foster family, and a lonely life. When she made a mistake to trust Cole, she had to dig herself out, and then try to figure out her real friends, Eli, Blizzard, Cher, Cole, Roxxii, and Micah. On the run, she had to learn to control herself. The stakes were high in the life of Nichole Everett.

"Hero-Ish." by themightypen25

What does spoiled milk and superpowers have in common Absolutely nothing. Of course, that's not what young Desmond Reid thought when his mother sent him on an errand one afternoon to receive some milk from a local grocery store. Upon his return home, and after having a glass, Desmond ends up having a seizure on the kitchen floor and blacks out. When he wakes up, he discovers he's been transmitted to a hospital and it's been two weeks since his little episode. Upon his return to reality, however, things change. Desmond Reid's ordinary life changes one morning when he wakes up and discovers his body levitating above his bed. Ever since then, the 17-year-old, high school senior has been getting extreme migraines and constant nosebleeds. After a trip to the doctor's office, young Desmond is told he is suffering from the changes of puberty, which, of course, Desmond finds extremely hard to believe-especially when he manages to stop an oncoming bus. It's then Desmond gets the idea that he could have superpowers, and after an intense amount of research, he learns he has the gift of telekinesis-the ability to lift or move objects with the power of one's mind. This convinces Desmond to take up the mantle of a superhero. After spending weeks training to harness abilities, not to mention going about his normal school life, and buying a costume online, Desmond thinks he's ready to hit the streets. However, his first night on the job as a superhero doesn't go as planned and as time goes by, he begins to question whether or not his powers are a gift, or a terrible curse. Things seem to go from bad to worse when men in black suits start following Desmond and his mother ends up being kidnapped by a man named Augustine, who claims to want Desmond's blood to rid the world of disease. Desmond must use his new found powers if he's to escape from Augustine's wrath and save his mother's life.

It is stained black and seeping through all the emotions I hide from you. Distorted and can't make out All these shadows that lurk about. But though the eyes you can see a hint at thy you can perceive. Nothing left... I'm inside out. And now i see that the mask itself... was meant for me. Sometimes you wear a mask for to long that you forget who you used to be beneath it all. In all this confusion one thing holds true, my feeling for you. So when I say I love you.

Insert One Liner Here (Book 2) by scaryberry123

[COMPLETED] ••Reached #1 in adventure on 04/07/2019•• ••Reached #2 in hero on 05/16/2019•• ••Reached #3 in fiction on 05/20/2019•• Arlo Sanders wakes up one morning to discover that he wet the bed. I know what you're thinking and no, he didn't pee himself. He had developed super powers. At first, he was in denial, but inevitably came to the understanding that he is now a Super, and if he has powers, he might as well use them for something other than picking up hot chicks. Now, not only does he have to deal with school, his almost non existent social life and his aggravating younger brother, but he also has to fight super villains and learn to control his new found powers to avoid blowing his cover to the world...and it is a lot harder than he anticipated. Prepare for a roller coaster ride of lame one liners and painfully awkward adolescent behaviour, along with bromances and romances, breakups and make ups, and even some cliché superhero behaviour, villains who hold a grudge, and really dorky super suits. Oh... and angry, rampaging squirrels.
