California, 2037. It's been 11 years since the deaths of The Fabulous Four, and just like the generations before, someone had to take charge of the cause to fight the tyrannical Better Living Industries. The Ultra V's, Val Velocity, Vaya, Vamos, and Frostbyte.
With the fate of the free world coming to a climax, the Killjoys must band together in order to save the ones they love and the freedom they've gained from living in the deserts of California since the 70's.
A new take on the events of The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys, expect a lot of love, death, and lore. My three favorite things.

"Now if you'll notice, I do try. Get out of the way, I'm back in line. No one will notice if I died... Maybe you'll live for me sometimes, Adeline..." ~~~~~~~~~~ Adeline was only four years old when she was left behind by her parents during the Great Fires of 2012. She would have died if it wasn't for two very kind young men, brothers, noticing the crying, exhausted little girl standing in the middle of the roads surrounded by rubble from burning buildings and deciding to save her life by carrying her away from the fire. These guys would soon grow up to be two out of four of the Fabulous Killjoys, Kobra Kid and Party Poison. Who would Adeline grow up to be? Now, in 2021 at thirteen years old, Adeline lives a sad, boring life alone in a little hut in the desert. The brothers who saved her life hadn't seen Adeline for nine years, since rescuing her, and vice versa. Until one day, they reunite, now with Fun Ghoul and Jet Star on their side. Many disturbing things about her parents are revealed throughout, some surprising and some not-so-surprising which were in front of her face the whole time. ~~~~~~~~~~ DISCLAIMER: This fic has no connection in plot to any of my other Killjoy/Danger Days fics, and all the rights to the Fabulous Killjoys characters belong to Gerard Way, My Chemical Romance, and The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys comic book. ~~~~~~~~~~ TRIGGER WARNING: deals with the sensitive subjects of self-harm, suicide, depression, sexual assault, physical and emotional abuse.

Almost Everything
COMPLETED This story is based on Danger Days by My Chemical Romance.... So now's the part where I attempt to do a good description, for all you Fabulous Killjoys! It's hard being a young leader of an extraordinarily talented group of Killjoys, especially when you and your rebellious best friend are just a chorus of problems. That was Silver Venom's life as Dr. Death Defying's daughter and being first in command of what she called her group to be the most 'fabulous' Killjoys. All she wants is to make sure the people that she loves around her are safe, but as everything in her life, major complications always seem to get in her way. Her dream is to change the way the world is- bland and meaningless. She wants life to come back in to the world, this year, 2019- life, colour, music, art and everything that kept the world sane and she believes, that with the help of her best friends; Kobra Kid, Party Poison, Electric Eclipse, Jet Star and Fun Ghoul, she believes that maybe one day... They can be that change.Complete

Ghosted. She moves through the desert with nothing, but her mask. She doesn't even make it out of Zone 2 by the time her body finally gives out and she collapses... This story is inspired by Danger Days: The True Lives Of The Fabulous Killjoys, but I, in no way, guarantee that this is 100% factual and true to the actual comics.Complete

The year is 2019, and Better Living Industries has taken over the only part of the world that survived the 2012 Great Fires: Battery City, California. Draculoids and Scarecrows heavily police the desert zones where the Fabulous Four Killjoys live, and the evil Korse runs the company. We have a girl named Lucy, 18 years old, whose parents are managers high up in the ranks of BL/Ind. She, however, has differing desires: she wants to run away to the desert and meet the Fabulous Killjoys. One day, she does... and her life is saved by none other than Party Poison, Kobra Kid, Fun Ghoul, and Jet Star when her parents find her running away and they use force as a means of bringing her back home to live under their controlling and toxic environment where she hid so well the fact that she never took any of the pills. She changes her look to express herself as she's always wanted, and gets a new name and starts a new life as: Fireball Frenzy. When Fireball is adjusting to and living this new life, what happens? Will she make new friends she thought she'd never have? Will she, perhaps, find love for one of these Killjoys? Find out here.
