After being the superhero known as Shade for nearly a year, Dray faces one of the biggest dilemmas yet. The terrorist known The Dragoon has just set off the New Madrid fault line causing chaos and destruction in an attempt to cleanse the city of Bedrock, AR, and neighboring states wanting to return society back to an agricultural society and detesting cities believing they turned citizens into the worst versions of themselves. Now Shade must do what he can to bring peace back to the city, while also dealing with the vicissitudes of adolescence. However, time brings new and old foes alike. Shade will also have to make a decision; the continual usage of his powers is slowly withering his soul and potions and modern medicine have no chance of stopping it. Shade also harbors a plan, one that only he knows about. One that he believes might change the world, but it just might cost him everything to enact it.

Days of Darkness: Awakening by TheDarkKnight_84

What happens when parallel universes collide? When a portal opens up in the middle of the city, it unleashes a reign of terror unlike anything that anyone has ever known. With the world's military forces unable to contain the problem, the world is plunged into darkness with Chicago as ground zero. Over the course of two years, the human race has been driven underground and lives in constant fear. Resources are scarce and time is running out for the planet. Among those people, is Damien, who, because of the invasion, was orphaned at eighteen years old and forced to learn to fight to survive. Together, with his friend, Christian, he stumbles upon a group of people who have dedicated their lives to fighting the invading forces. After a close encounter with the Nightstalkers, a race of reptilian-like creatures, Damien's world is, once again, turned upside-down as strange things start to happen to him. Soon, he comes to realize that he is more connected to this threat than he could have ever imagined. And when the true threat reveals himself and his power, it becomes clear that the fate of the entire planet could be decided in an instant. Can he be stopped in time or will the world remain in eternal darkness???

Chains of Nect: Obsidian's Obsession by AlexaGrave

Obsidian successfully plays the game expected of her, passes the tests, and is accepted as a Guardian. Though she jumps through the hoops, she doesn't want to follow the precepts at all, to guard the portals but never open them. She believes its a waste to not explore the worlds within, like her ancestors had. How can they protect themselves if something comes through the portals if they don't know what's in them? Obsidian's appointed mentor, Damian, is a straight-laced young Guardian, who can't contain the young dedicant. He's always believed the laws are in place to protect all of Nect, but Obsidian starts to make him question his own principles. She doesn't allow him any time to examine the possibilities, though, and he has to decide between reporting her or standing by her side to protect her from whatever horrors she stirs up. Will the Guardians end Obsidian's life, or will something from another world get to her first? ***One new chapter will be posted about once every two months.*** ***WARNING: This is rough draft material. Don't be surprised if you fall into plot holes, trip over inconsistencies, and get hit in the head with direction changes. I've done my best to read through several times before posting, though, to make sure most spelling and grammar errors are corrected. Any constructive comments are welcome for when I revise this novel. Thank you for reading!***

Beneath the Shadowlanders by ManderRitzert

We knew something wasn't right from the moment we awoke. It was like something was missing - a part of our very souls - and we couldn't sense the deficiency, no matter how hard we tried. A hundred million eyes adjusted to the dark all at once, all surprised to be awakened so soon. We ran through our checklists of limbs and senses, drawing ourselves out of our dreams piece by piece. Some went back to sleep, unaware, unbothered, too tired to notice the difference. Some lay in bed, too anxious to stand until the light of dawn crept through their windows at last, and they were sure the monsters in their closets had gone back to sleep. Some leapt from their slumbers, more keenly aware than others that the missing pieces were important. But we didn't know. We couldn't have. Not until we found ourselves standing in the light and discovered: We no longer had shadows.

Cosmic by Scrasms

In an alternate timeline, the human race found a way to create superpowers. By extracting energy from stars and inserting that energy into humans, 'powers' were created. Powers allowed humans to gain unnatural abilities such as flight, invisibility, super strength or in other words, superpowers. Of course, with the introduction of something so revolutionary, people rose up in the hundreds of thousands in an event known as the Great Rebellion. The insurgents banded together under a single banner and became collectively known as the Shadow, marking the beginning of the Cosmic Wars. Out of the darkness, the Gazers were born. Using what remained of the power technology, the Gazers singlehandedly perished the evil and ended the conflict. However, there was a price to pay. Powers put a toll on the human body and had serious mental and physical repercussions. The solution was to recruit children from the age of 13 to 18 and train them so their bodies would adapt to their powers, eventually becoming immune to all negative side effects. The end of the Cosmic Wars brought forth a new age of peace and prosperity that the world had never seen before. However, the long reign of the Gazers has already begun to crumble, cracks showing up within the very thread of society. Their rule will not last for much longer. The Shadow will rise once again. Or in other words, my unintentional and accidental ripoff of My Hero Academia :/ Blurb is a work in progress

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?

They destroyed everything and killed most of the humans that had once called the States home.

He has an enslaved army of refugees from the other Realms. But the people who are trapped are not content with their positions. No, they want freedom. Life. Happiness. Safety.

Hybrid: The Awakening by DuNdUnDUN2006

And with strange new powers, the teenagers struggle to live in the unfamiliar world they thought they knew so well.
