New Victoria is not a pleseant place to live. Criminals and villains run loose creating chaos and disorder. Gangs and mafias control the city and fighting amosnst each other for power. The supposed superheroes have closed themselves off in their own section of the city. This leaves vigilantes and antiheroes to do as they please, administering their own sense of justice.
So when a wannabe hero pops up out of nowhere and starts making a ruckus, what does the city do? The villains crush them. The heroes squash them. And the gangs make an example out of him. But this doesn't stop the kid. He doesn't go down so easily and they'll make sure everyone knows it.
Because what this city needs is not heroes that turn their eye from violence. Not dealings with the mafia for complacency. And not to live in fear when you walk out of your home. No, what they need is a true hero.

Heroes at Heart
"I've tried telling them I'm only fifteen. That no sane government would force a boy my age to fight crime. 'But Max, you're a superhero! Isn't this what you want?' Actually, no. I just kind of want to get through high school. Then we'll talk about this 'superhero' business." Max Owens is your average high school sophomore. Well, he tries to be, at least. At fifteen, he's got more important things to do than fight the infamous Vinicus Cauldwell. With his single mother having recently lost her job, Max is determined to help his family get back up on its feet. The publicity and pressure that comes with being a superhero would be too much to handle right now. But it's hard to fly under the radar, when you can literally fly. Meanwhile, Vinicus Cauldwell enjoys the power he has as Murkbourne's most feared super-villain. For once, he can sit back and relax without being pestered by the police. That is, until Max arrives. Vinicus isn't happy about having to fight a child, but he can't let Max find out. After all, super-villains can't be "good people"... Can they? We can't all be born heroes. But most of us are Heroes at Heart. (Based on a writing prompt / story request by tumblr user "fallingivy")Complete
Half Hero ⚡️ {Superhero Adventure Scifi}
I should be dead. At least, that's what the government officials told me in the super-secret lab where I woke up strapped to a mattress in a windowless room...Sound problematic to anyone else? Like I told the psychos experimenting on me, I've got zero clue how I got my new powers, but I'm sure-as-shit not going to let them turn me into a deadly weapon (or squeeze me into a spangly jumpsuit). Problem is, I'm not so great at controlling whatever the hell it is I've become...Not to mention I'm on the run from my country for a teensy-weensy act of treason while being chased by a shadowy masked mute who may or may not have superhuman abilities too (but is definitely stupid hot under his off-putting disguise). I'm only 25 and my career choices have been limited to hero or villain. WTF?!? Indie Author Fangirl Moments: 1. SHORTLISTED FOR A 2021 Watty (WTF?!?) 2.

The Obsessive Villainess Vol. 1 ✔
"Don't touch that man." "Why not?" "He has a beast guarding him." I am that beast; Nora. I woke up as the villain of this book, destined to die after going crazy due to my love for the main lead. "I spent my last life wanting to die, and now that I've decided to survive, this world is after me?" No. I won't die such a pathetic death. I will survive this time. No matter what. But first, I need to survive these main leads. One won't leave me alone; the other keeps fighting with me; another is destined to kill me... Even my superpowers are so weak! Surviving in a world that hates me... Is kinda difficult. *** I got tired of reading about 'special' and 'pure-hearted' heroines so I decided to write about a character I could relate to. Writing gets better after first few chapters. [#1 Angst] [#1 Obsession] [#2 Yandere] [#1 Villain] [#1 Antagonist] [#1 Superpowers]Complete
Subhumans: the Invasion
Kyle Mills is the most powerful subhuman on the planet. As a teenager, he used his powers to fight crime and take down evil organizations. But it was never enough. Twenty years later, after tensions between humans and subhumans reached a breaking point, the government sanctioned subhumans into a new district of lower Manhattan called The Homeland. Ever since then, humans and subhumans have lived in two separate worlds. But when a mysterious man named Lucius arrives and offers humans new powers even greater than what subhumans possess, Kyle is suspicious. Lucius wants to train humans for a war that's coming, but only the ones who take his powers will survive. He asks Kyle to be his right hand man and offers to give him more power than he's ever dreamed of. Lucius' new "neohumans" are stronger, faster, and smarter than any subhuman, but they lose all sense of right and wrong. Everything in Kyle is screaming not to trust Lucius. If he refuses, he'll keep his morality, but die in the war. If he accepts, he'll lose it, but live. When being good has never been good enough, could being bad finally be the answer?
Her Powerful Love (Illustrated)
What if a superhuman girl went yandere for you? Anon always had a thing for superstrong women, but he never thought he would meet one in real life, or that they even existed. Let alone that one would fall for him. And as Anon soon realizes, their love is as powerful as they are. Notes: -No actual smut present -16K word count -If you hate yanderes/expect any morality in this story, do not read -The story is by me; the pictures are AI -Pictures have some inconsistencies and missing details. They're mostly here so you get Miya's emotions and what she looks likeComplete
feel it! (m!yanderes x f!reader)
(m!yandere!superhero x f!reader x m!yandere!supervillain) you are secretly in love with your childhood best friend who has shown you no indication as to whether or not your feelings are reciprocated. that's fine though! you can keep the crush under wraps- especially since he has bigger fish to fry than silly feelings when he's one of the strongest superheroes in the world. it's enough to just be in his orbit (or so you tell yourself). things go to shit though when he's called away to a mission across the world from you. while it's sad to not be near your bff/wanna-be-lover, the real issue is that his sidekick and nemesis seem to be a bit obsessed with you, and he's not there to offer you any assistance in avoiding their super powered advances towards you. hopefully he finishes up that mission before the unhinged supers destroy the entire country in the pursuit of your love! crossposted on quotev. please do not republish anywhere.

The Life of a Villain
Aren't you ever tired of the same old super hero story? The hero is cool looking with bulging muscles, and always wins. Like, always. Even if the situation is dire and it all seems lost. All the sudden, freaking deus ex machina. And the villain is either some super nerd, or a loser. Do you have any idea how stereotypical that is? Hero=jock/bully. Villain=nerd/loser. But not this time. This is a new story. The Life of a Villain. Part 1: This is a story about Leonardo Sutton a.k.a Knifeslinger, an 18 year old villain out for revenge for his family's death. He goes undercover at Ravenswood Academy where he meets new friends and old friends, and an evil plot that could shake the world. Part 2: Life was finally starting to settle down(ish) in the few days of freedom, but of course normality can't be something for ex-villain Leonardo Sutton. When an alien invasion is imminent, Leo must be Knifeslinger again, and work with Team Amazing to stop the Disastrous Nuclear Anthropoid and his planet of people. #1 in #supervillain 7/5/2020Complete
