~I stepped in a puddle and slipped, right in the middle of the street. I fell hard, my glasses becoming lopsided. Mud splattered all over my clothes, and a hole ripped through the right side of my cardigan. But that wasn't the worst of it.
HOOOOONK!
I gasped and looked up to see an eighteen-wheeler headed my way. Its lights were on, but it had obviously seen me too late.
Quickly, I tried scrambling to my feet, but slipped again in the water. I desperately gazed back to the truck, on my stomach, with mud all over my face. But just before collision happened... someone grabbed me by the back of my shirt. It happened so quickly, but I remember the person carried me with lightning speed to the side of the road, still lying down. The trunk zoomed past, horn still sounding loudly. When I tried to twist around to see who had saved me, no one was there.~
Ever since her father died, constantly moving, leaving friends behind, and struggling through teenage-hood was the life of Willow Summers. Her walk with God had hit rock bottom, but she had no idea how to fix it. And that's when she, her mother, and her brother moved to Warm Oaks.
Warm Oaks seemed an ordinary city on the outside, but once arriving, Willow finds out that not only does her mortal enemy - Daren Vale Jr. - live there, but there was also a claimed "superhero" running around the streets and saving people. She had serious doubts about the latter statement, but when he's proven real to her, the girl feels the need to investigate. But,when she does, she discovers that the Silhouette wasn't just a random superhero - he was connected to her, her family, and her past in more ways than she could imagine.
Long ago a group of superheroes and villains worked together to prevent an invasion. But they managed to kill more people than they saved. Their destruction caused the perception of those with powers to dramatically shift; to the point of outcast.
50 years later crime as only increased to the point where not even the police respond to calls. Few heroes went into hiding to 'play normal'; like my family and I. I live in New Haven City. I've been lucky enough that I don't have powers that attract too much attention

Everything was going great. Everything was normal. Until Jamie was forced to confront the reality of her situation.
The mayor who has been running the NSA was beginning to take drastic measures. Sending many supers off to another island. Stealing their powers. Forcing others to betray their own kind. The victims of these horrific acts are not taking that lightly. Why not make a team of heroes? A team that doesnt give a shit what the NSA or the Mayor has to say.
A team of young teens who probably don't even listen to each other. That will save the world...
