Maestro is a super villain whose only power is being extremely genre savvy- he takes pride in his evil status, but when the genre of his story unexpectedly switches he is forced to work with his much-despised nemeses, the heros, in an attempt to set his universe back into what he believes should be the correct balance.All Rights Reserved

Superheroing 101 by Amgeek

Zachary Dellis is a shitty person. He doesnt like working too hard. He does pay enough attention in class. Even at home he's barely attentive. Being the only hero in the large city of Astmeld, he is kind of relied on. But in comes a newer superhero. More dedicated more agile. More.... popular and loved. Zach doesn't hide his jealously well either. This hero forces him to step up his game; but it still isn't enough to compete. But when one slip up by the newbie causes a hostile alien to begin her phase 2, the two much join together and take this... what ever it is down before it takes over the city and the galaxy.

City of Masks: Vigilante origins by TipsyWizard

Abominations, freaks, monsters; society has forever ostracized those who stand out. And when the discovery of a new mineral leads to people developing supernatural abilities, these "Abnormals" are treated no differently. However in the wake of a catastrophic event that left everyone wondering whether it was the end, everything changed. Now Abnormals are appreciated more than ever as an era of Superheroes was born, inspired by the heroes who saved the World! But this story isn't about those heroes, instead we follow Elliot Campbell, seventeen years later, in the waning years of Superhero popularity. Elliot is your average bystander who struggles everyday to stay above rock bottom, except for one big problem; he is an absolute loser, incapable of making correct decisions. That is until he is offered the power to change the course of his life forever. He could become an Abnormal or even more hopeful he could become a Superhero! Except that the way he would get his powers isn't exactly above board & the people he would be joining are fighting crime outside of the law. Is this the chance he must take to turn his life around or just another BIG mistake in a long long list of them?

Don't Be a Hero by L1l-R00

Hey there folks! Welcome to Havenport! Your sparkling metropolis with only a very minor case of major organized crime that you will barely notice apart from the city-wide turf war between the two mega crime rings struggling for sole control. If you're fearing for your safety, don't! Reported crime is at an all-time low so this is the perfect place to settle down, get married, raise a family, and watch everything you've worked so hard to build burn to ashes the moment you cross the wrong superhuman mafia grunt. They don't care about our insignificant little lives anyway. Unless you have money, property, a superpower, or morals. Don't poke the sleeping giants unless you wish to get squished, and don't try to topple them. Better men than you have tried. They're too big to fail. Now let me tell you the best thing to do when you finally arrive! Leave. No one is safe.

Nebulous by Chudi_Oraedu

Nagode Tyjani (Codename: Nebulous) was average and accepted it. He was working a dead-end job with little to show for it and spent most of his time isolating himself from the world around him. His life wasn't perfect, but it was perfectly ordinary. It seemed he could only dream of escaping into the extraordinary. Then one day that's what happened. Now, the Department of Paranormal Activity is at Nagode's front door, ready to exploit his newfound psychic powers. If he wants a shot at a stable career and becoming the hero he's destined to be, he'll have to join the Paratroopers, an elite squadron of individuals with paranormal abilities. Together, they'll protect the planet from the incredible dangers that threaten it. Joining the Paratroopers will force Nagode to endure the most hellish of trials, but if he can survive, he'll master a power that might bring true peace to the universe...

Super•Villainous by WhatTomfoolery

"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/slowburn

Planto by JaylenDJones

In this world, most of the human population was born with powers they are called superhumans but this teenage vigilante who's trying to avenge his parent's death was born powerless but mysteriously gained plant-based powers. (Pronounce plant-O)

Love-Love || OLD DRAFT by glassEyed

[THIS IS AN OLD DRAFT. Please read the rewrite that is currently up on my profile] ............ "Look, man, I'm sorry, okay? I didn't mean to rob the bank but I'm broke and I need the money." "If you need money, go get a job!" "I have a job!" "A real job, not blowing up the city -" "This is a real job, Stormy. It keeps you employed. I don't have to pay TAXES." ~ Super Storm is your typical superhero with stunning blonde hair and high morale. Gravel is your typical supervillain with a slight obsession over a certain someone's beautiful blonde hair and a mission he doesn't want to complete. Now let's say Gravel meets someone who uses the same shampoo as Super Storm. Let's say they bond over tennis. Let's say Gravel's sidekick isn't particularly fond of what's unfolding. Let's say this three-playered tennis match has more balls in the court than expected. Who'll win? Who'll lose? ~~ a story as told by a Supervillain (boyxboy) ••• 🏆 featured by SuperHero - the official Supers' account 🏆 featured by the official Action account 🏆 featured by Wattpad India 🏆 featured by Stories Undiscovered #1 in superhero #1 in supervillain #1 in FreeTheLGBT #1 in lgbtqIN #1 in OpenNovellaContest2019 #3 in bxb #4 in teenfiction

The Normals by EstrangeloEdessa

Marianne Averrige is not like other superheroes. Her costume isn't made of flashy skintight spandex. Her hair doesn't flow in waves of glorious curls. And her powers... well... they kind of don't exist. To tell the truth, Marianne isn't even really a Super. She's a Normal. She spends her time performing small rescues for ordinary people down in the corners of Fantastic City -- the kind of people that ordinary Supers don't have time for. And even if she calls herself a Super, she knows, deep down, that they don't care about her at all. But that isn't enough to discourage her from pursuing her childhood dream. By any means possible.

[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. --------------------------

Without A Trace (Open Novella Contest) [Completed] by lemoncandyfloss

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?
