Yazid is a seemingly blessed young African-American boy. He got a scholarship to one of his top universities, has a supportive family, and is doing well in college. However, issues start once Yazid gains powers seemingly out of nowhere, abilities that make him nigh-invincible. And it is after this mysterious occurrence that Yazid sees how little the world can approve. Approve of his beliefs, his girlfriend, his use of his powers, even who he is as a fundamental person. Yazid finds himself thrust into a world where he constantly meets the worst of the worst, and the most unfortunate bit, it's all his fault. Yazid must now deal with the mental struggles threatening to tear him and his spirit apart, while also fighting against the struggles outside his person, threatening destruction to those he cares most for.

Strangers in Danger by lilmermaidwrites

Attractive strangers Lucas and Cara were living normal, uncomplicated lives until sought by a group of bounty hunters. The price on their heads is high because the gifts they possess are priceless. They run for their lives but it doesn't take long to realize they can't run from their growing attraction for each other. Oof, that description was painful. This is a hobby project intended to work some creative muscles, which is why you may see iterations of the same characters in my stories. While not true fan fiction, this work is inspired by several of my favorite movies and film characters. I like to drop lines from these movies and characters as little Easter eggs. If you can spot them give them a shout-out in the comments. As this is essentially a glorified creative writing project, I haven't done the type of deep research that goes into a professional novel. I'm always receptive to constructive criticism that helps to improve my writing.

World of Legends Act 1 (Beta version) by Joyboy241

This story that I'm posting is going to be a comic book down the road, but I'm just putting some of the rough draft out to get some eyes on my story!!! It's an Action/Adventure Following a young African American male, dealing with the problems of his mother that is originally not from Earth, being tracked by his mother's people he will be facing the trials and the repercussion of his mother's actions. If I could give it a content rating I would most definitely say R-rated. Ps: Ps: the way I wrote the story and the way it is formatted is a way as if you're reading a comic book, just without the panels. Hope y'all enjoy.

Cassiopea's School for the Gifted by artsykid04

In a world where magical creatures and humans intermix, there are two types of magic and two types of people. Dark magic and light magic. Good people and evil people. Our main character is going to learn that your powers do not define who you are as a person. Arion Griffin lives in a society where people with light magic are 'good' and people with dark magic are 'bad'. He comes from a long line of dark magic. Unfortunately, this causes many problems for his social life since his family's reputation precedes him and makes it so no one will talk with him. He is worried it will make his greatest fear come true. He is terrified he is on the path to becoming evil like his parents. Then, one day at school he gets an invitation from Cassiopeia's School for the Gifted. Sure he's heard of it, but only in rumors. The school is just for magical creatures to learn more about themselves and their history. It was made over three hundred years ago and still run by a fairy named Cassiopea and her daughter Cassia. Arion is excited to go because his parents refuse to teach him anything about other magical creatures other than dark magic. They believe it is irrelevant for him to know because they think he will take over the world one day. And why should a leader know anything about his subjects? Arion convinces his parents that if he goes to the school he can do recon on the other magical people so he can learn about them and make it easier for him to take over. With no friends, no siblings, and a very negative outlook on life, he heads to Cassiopeia's School for the Gifted. He makes friends and learns that just because he has dark magic, doesn't mean he is evil. *Idk if this is actually a good story but I had a lot of fun writing it! :) *This story has been edited

Now You See Me... Now You Don't... ✔(Editing) by LynnBeiphong16

I looked at him in shock, "How do you know that?" "I know a lot of things about you, Ms. Prior, even things you don't know yourself." Excuse me? "From what you can do," he paused giving me a look before directing his gaze back at the field. "To your eye color. Your parents have blue ones, so I don't see how that works." What? He continued without question, "You are still a mystery to us, as you have never showed any signs of power before, so it's sort of confusing." He paused for a few seconds them said, "You're different; you have an ability. You're a Supernatural." "Ok, I really need to go so..." I began walking back, but he stuck out his arm to block me. And that's when it happened. Flames rose on his arms, lighting them on fire. I backed up, feeling the heat radiate off his arms. I was in utter shock, yet he looked relaxed, amused even. "What the hell are you?" I jumped back, and the fire went out, a smirk rising on his face. "I'm just like you." ***** Kayla Prior has always been a popular girl, and everyone looks up to her.

No Ordinary Girl by RoyaStories

Alexia Lambre, Teenage Telekinetic: The School by speedRead

Alexia Lambre had never been a truly 'normal' girl, because she had always had the added 'bonus' of telekinesis. At least, some might call it a bonus. Alexia would call it a curse, because throughout her entire life she worried about someone finding out about it and taking her away. Someone did find out about it, but not the government like she assumed would happen. She was soon offered a place at what was called 'The School,' a place for people like her to learn about their powers. When she arrived though, she learned otherwise. She makes friends with the other kids, and they all join up against the scientists at the school, those that like to do tests and even experiments on them. Will the group ever escape the school? Or will the appearance of a new teen and 'experiment C' do them in?
