She's Behind The Mask
The wind blows past my head, I close my eyes and take a deep breath of the cool air. Looking down I can see the city and all the lights that let me know I'm not alone in the world. I could get used to this I think to myself and I laugh. I laugh because I have powers. I laugh because of the clouds. I laugh because I have school tomorrow and I'm up at 1am. I laugh because I feel free. Kaylee is your typical teenager, does alright at school, loves basketball and has a small group of friends. But what happens when one morning she wakes up and is no longer 'typical'. Exploring her new-found abilities is all that's on her mind. When the city then gets a new hero, the kind that goes around saving people using unimaginable powers, she becomes the front page of every newspaper. But they would never expect that She's Behind The Mask...Complete
Better Undercover
Courtney had more problems than other high schoolers: she discovered that she has superpowers, watched her parents get killed, learned that ever memory of the past year was a lie, and was recruited by the girl who was responsible for altering her memories to save the world. Maybe it would be a good thing. Courtney could go along with the girl's plan, get her memory back and move on with her life, but in order to protect her siblings and the rest of the world, she has to embrace her powers. The plan takes a sharp turn when Courtney's powers take over and she becomes more dangerous than the original threat. Some things are better undercover, but sometimes facing yourself and fighting is the only way to make things right. But will Courtney destroy herself and everything she has ever known in order to set things right? Sequel to Staying Undercover, but can be read without reading Staying UndercoverComplete

The Best Intentions
When you get flashy superpowers thanks to a chemical spill, you're supposed to become a superhero, right? Sabrina Flynn has absolutely no reason to go out and play vigilante. Two loving parents, a doting grandpa, more money than she could ever spend, and no tragic past pushing her to go out at night and seek justice. But when she develops superspeed and vigilantes start popping up all over the city, Sabrina gets an idea. The thing is, supervillains aren't always the threat. Iron Beach had a problem with organized crime, and the main hindrance in Sabrina's race to saving the city is the woman in charge of it all, Natalia Mendoza. The problem is, there isn't a way to stop her without becoming someone else. Something else. A villain. ***** Ranked #8 in supervillainComplete
Super•Villainous
"I've been looking for you." There was an unexpected rasp to his voice, a hint of desperation. He stretched out one hand, as if to brush it across my cheek, or perhaps wrap it around my throat. Oddly enough, I didn't know which option frightened me more. *+*+*+* Lily Burdett has an unfortunate gift for getting herself into tricky situations, but her luck is especially bleak the day she finds herself in the destructive path of the city's premier supervillain. When he grabs ahold of her, she reacts without thinking and stabs him twice in the shoulder, only surviving the encounter thanks to a nearby hero who intervenes on her behalf. Unfortunately, her villain vows to get even. Everywhere she turns, he's there, and with each bizarre encounter more doubts fill her head as to his true intentions. *enemies to lovers/slowburnComplete

[Formerly Featured!] Coming back from a vacation, with a gun pointed at her head was definitely not what Jean Saunders expected. Especially seeing a man flying around in the air, claiming to be the city's superhero. At least he wasn't wearing that embarrassing spandex outfit. Alas, due to her capability for getting into trouble, the city's superhero eventually recognises her and not in a good way, at all. Catching a superhero's attention is never a good thing. -------------------------- Opening and closing his mouth, he made some gestures as if he was trying to speak but he couldn't find the words to convey his message. "...what are you?" He finally managed to speak and I blinked my eyes at him. The heck? Does he think I am some sort of...alien? It's not like I'm some kind of weird species! What the heck does he think I am? "I'm human!" I said, narrowing my eyes at him. --------------------------Complete
The Disastrous (Revised)| ✔️
(This is a revised version) Disasters struck the earth causing human kind to go into panic. Families were separated, people were killed and only the strong survived. The Aliens caused this and now they are hunting them individually. They look exactly like them but have perks unlike them. When Ashley meets Noah she doesn't know it at first but her life went from 100 to 1000. Secrets start to unfold while friends and enemies wait in every twist. How she is going to survive this? No one knows. This story was original made by me and two other people.... though I went through and change some of the stuff by adding more detail and changing some scenes. The original book will still be published and is found in my stories. **Is basically like a fanfiction of The 5th Wave** Completed before revised Oct. 22, 2017 Completed after revised Aug. 19, 2019Complete
