"Why do you do this?" 

"Do what?"

"Steal? Drive the city into chaos?" 

"Because no one else wants to do it. You're too much of an amateur to understand."
---
In a world full of people with powers...
Things in Anetidia City things are going out of hand.
---
•Scarlett Astial is a laureled public figure.
•Laura Mei is the one-eyed phantom.
•Cher Milton is the hot tempered, spoiled princess.
•Fleur Aegis is the fashionista and city's model.
~The 5 are the daughters of Anetidia's 5 most prestigious families. Pampered, spoiled and perfect, or at least in the morning.~
---
At night, the 5 are the city's most feared supervillians.
Stealing? Causing chaos? Mocking the heroes repeatedly? 
Those are their specialties. Yet at the same time they keep their secret identities a secret. 
---
But when a new villain that isn't human, stronger than the five of them combined shows up and throws the city into further chaos, the five might just have to go against their villainous principles and team up with the heroes. 

But there is just one problem...
All the heroes have been captured!?
Or maybe... nearly all of them.
---  
With nothing but a group of amateur superheroes in their aid, the 4 are forced to go into hiding, and even work with these 5 heroes. But with these 5 amateurs may just prove to be a problem in hiding their identities.
---
What will be the fate of the city when it rests on the most unlikely team people with barely any trust for each other, with the whole villain society on their tails?

"𝐎𝐍𝐋𝐘 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐃𝐄𝐀𝐃 𝐇𝐀𝐕𝐄 𝐓𝐑𝐔𝐋𝐘 𝐒𝐄𝐄𝐍 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐄𝐍𝐃 𝐎𝐅 𝐖𝐀𝐑" When Delphinium Tesla is dragged back into the poisonous clutches of the organization that turned her into a lethal killer, everything changes in the heightening conflict between Imperium and the rest of the world. Imperium is rising with no significant opposition and the world is quickly realizing how unprepared they are for such a threat. Just when it seems as if things can't get any worse for the team, their one ally turns against them and becomes one of their largest foes. The remaining members are forced to go on the run, all while trying to pull themselves together after the disastrous civil war that rocked their group. Between being pursued by the gangs of New York City, a teammate gone rogue, Imperium, and their own government, the team has never been in a darker point. How can the broken team destroy Imperium once and for all if the growing empire is nearly unstoppable? In this thrilling conclusion, the warfare that has been threatening to break out between Imperium and its resistance is nearing. The team knows that not everyone will survive, especially not if Imperium wins and gains unbridled control over the world. War is inevitable. 𝐖𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐃𝐄𝐑𝐒 𝐇𝐀𝐕𝐄 𝐒𝐀𝐈𝐃: "This series should really be made into a television series or something. It had me completely destroyed." "This whole series needs to be known everywhere." "I wasn't a fan of superpower-related stories, but this series had my mind blown away and completely changed my thoughts. I've read hundreds of books and these are easily in my top ten." "Your writing is so amazingly professional. It feels like I'm watching a movie." "This is the essence of character development and a good slow burn."

Open Novella Contest 2025! This is my interpretation of prompt 50. A supervillain has a midlife crisis and decides to become a superhero. But redemption might be harder than they imagined. ___________________________________________________________________ Cassius Vale has spent his life in the shadows, a man forged by necessity-no questions asked, no hesitation. A fixer, a ghost, a necessary evil in a city that thrives on corruption and despair. He's become an instrument of violence, a blade wielded by unseen hands, but when a job leaves an innocent girl staring at him with pure terror in her eyes, something deep within him stirs. For the first time, he questions whether he can be anything more than a weapon for hire. Can the blood on his hands ever be washed away, or is he forever stained by the choices he's made? As crime tightens its vice grip on the city and a new wave of chaos surges, Cassius stands at a crossroads: remain the villain in this twisted narrative or fight for something greater than himself. But redemption comes with a heavy toll, and the path to heroism is littered with foes who won't let him slip away so easily. In a world where justice is nothing more than a fading memory and second chances are rare as gold, can a man molded by violence ever transform into a hero? Or will the darkness that has shaped his existence finally consume him, dragging him back into the abyss from which he emerged?

Everyone has heard of the story. After the Knights betrayed the system, were executed for their crimes, and were forgotten to time, evil began to rise one more, even in the absence of the Divilamu. So the highest sorcerers and elites opened a permanent bridge to another world, known as the great Summoning, and brought with it, champions from an unknown dimension, blessed with incredible powers. They took the task of defending the land from the darkness, and creatures that tainted the light, and issued a new era of peace. More powerful than any other race, they quickly became the ruling class. Now they rule behind any government, hunting and destroying threats. With a wide range of abilities, they saw no resistance. They were called Aldaraians. Jack is a simple farmer, living in the comfy town of Rorin. Like 90% of the population, he is a normal human. He does not mind, as he had a loving wife and daughter. A daughter who dreams of joining the ranks of Aldaraians. Then Jack comes home and finds his family dead. He devolves into despair, and then, clear thought, and rage. People he trusted neglected their duty to protect. Jack makes a twisted journey of revenge, making a few acquaintances along the way, he will take them down, by whatever means necessary. He knows deep down he will not survive, but he just wants to give them a scar, so they never forget him. How would you feel? If you were nothing? If gods from another dimension roamed, and did whatever they pleased. The old gods are nowhere to be found? The only gods are the ones that you see everyday? And most importantly, where is the line drawn, between Good and evil? Join Jack on this dark take on the implications of isekai. Will he get his revenge, or will he die, and life will stay the same as he rots in his grave?

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.

Shortlisted for the Open Novella Contest 2019 • Being a Supervillain is tough. Between managing a secret lair and making sure your mom doesn't stop loving you because you keep telling everyone she's dead, it's a really hard business to be good at? Add to that, the fact that somehow you got arrested because your cat sitter didn't take the day off and then you go around expressing your unconditional love for pancakes in a Super holding cell because technically they can't put you in a proper prison and you don't really have a choice because lawyers are expensive? And then, you realise your best friend is plotting go take over your spot as the greatest villain there ever was? Okay, maybe not the greatest, but you do come pretty close to it! To top it off, there's that one Superhero who's just so completely gorgeous, you couldn't imagine any harm coming to them? Because they're just that precious? I guess that makes me a Supervillain with minor time travel superpowers and a huge crush on a not so powerful Superhero? And all you have to do is protect yourself and everyone you love from your ex best friend/sidekick --because let's face it that's the highest level of praise for a wretched traitor here--and you also have to get out of Super Holding somehow? What could go wrong? Right?
