"The Darkness is simply a whole; neither Good nor Evil unless you make it so.''
I am The Shadow. I am a profesional assassin. I kill for money and have no moral compass. I get the worlds 'bad guys' when no one else can. At least that's what everyone thinks, including myself. They are wong, I am more in so many ways. I am not what I think I am, that is all I know for certin. Am I good, am I bad am I both? The question still remains: "What am I, really?

Royal Blood
I thought I knew my world. The people in it, the secrets they held, their intentions. . . Turns out I didn't have a clue. They lie and deceive and manipulate you without you knowing. You let your guard down around the people you trust the most, only to have them stab you in the back. Some say ignorance is bliss, but I say ignorance is death. Because not knowing things gets you killed.Complete
Welcome To My Life
I'm different, I've always known it. Rather it be because of my disbelief's or the way I keep my hair, people have always rejected me. I don't see things the way others do, in fact my best friend happens to be a fallen angle, and every time I sleep I meet a different fate. It depends on who I'm seeing that night or day where I end up, weather it be on a abandon swing set or a field of daises. All I've wanted was for someone who loves me for who I am, a love that not even my own father could give. Ps: some readers have had questions about the gender of the main character, Shade is a boy! His full name is Shadow Gray Dark! Aka Shade.Complete
Super?
"Stop pretending to be an idiot, idiot." Ouch. It burns. "You're starting to sound like a dear old friend of mine," she adds, her tone implying that her "friend" isn't so much of a "friend" as a mortal enemy who she probably also dragged into an alley on multiple occasions. Because she must be a fan of alley-dragging. Theater major. "I bet that friend was super amazing," I retort anyway. "She'd have to be to put up with you." Oh! Snap! I grin like an idiot at my own joke, realize how uncool that is, and then quickly rearrange my face into a frown. "I'm sorry. I don't quite understand. You're supposed to be a superhero, so why are you threatening a fellow superhero? Isn't that kind of against our code or whatever?" "You don't have a code. Superheroes who follow codes don't drop off information about people's allegedly dead sons at their doorsteps and then run." Well, can't say she doesn't have a point there. -- After being framed for the horrific murder of Birchwood City's most revered superhero's six year-old son, Maya Waterman abandons her super-villain persona and finds herself lost without any sense of identity and purpose. Being hunted by a vengeful super is hard enough, but after her employer fires her and she's evicted from her apartment, Maya begins to become something she had prayed she would never become again- helpless. She needs nothing less than a miracle to save herself, and much to her surprise, she gets just that-- even if it entails her trying her hand at becoming a good guy for once.Complete

The Immortal
(History) Hi my name is Serenity, and I have a secret I must tell, because you see I am immortal, which means that I cannot die no matter what, like for example you shoot 100 bullets at my heart I won't die. When I first realized I was immortal was when I was trying to save a friend but the bullet went right through my heart and killed her. Her name was Sarah, and she was the only person that accepted me being immortal. You see what happened was, she said that she was going to tell people that were scared of me that I was a normal person, but she said that to someone who really hated me and that was her brother, Ian, even though he may be hot, he can be a full on jerk. Nearly everyone at school knows that. But, the one thing I don't get is why he hates me. I can understands if he hated me after his sister died, but it didn't mean that he had to tell the police that I killed her, as I didn't, he did. He is such a bloody liar. One day I will get revenge on her, but that will happen once I get out of here. At the moment I am in jail, I've been telling the police that I didn't kill Sarah, but they still don't believe me. The chick in the cell next to me whose name was Raquel said that they won't believe anyone as they have heard too much shit from other prisoners.

I swear Ian screwed up their minds as he has been in prison for 5 years; well that is what Raquel told me, as they used to be Boyfriend and Girlfriend, and they both did the same crime 10 years ago.Complete

Shadows and Secrets
Chaos is mischievous and naughty, but she is also not the type of villain that targets random people and for no reason. She has her own morals but of course, the heroes in Nexus city are too high up their noses to even realise that. However, it does not bother Chaos too much as she is having fun messing those "big-nosed peacocks" as she called them, as her bonus missions. Now as Circe Starlan however, she was the complete opposite. A talented, sharp, observant and kind girl who ironically, works in the police force. She solves a lot of cases, catches a lot of normal criminals, and is even a well-liked woman among her peers and everyone who knows Circe. Especially with her blonde hair and blue eyes making her look like the typical angel described in stories. No wonder no one had ever connected Chaos and Circe as the same person, they're the complete opposite! Like any other villain, they always have a hero archnemesis. That's where Luminary came in. A superhero who is always there to stop Chaos' mischiefs and terrorising (because to be fair, not all of her attacks are a mere mischief. Some of them are actually life-threatening!). Luminary and Chaos had been in each other's butt, fighting and being pranked (Luminary that is). Chaos did not hate him; she was just annoyed at his constant interrupting. Although it does give her some entertainment sometimes. But what happens when a new hero who just transferred from Asteria city causes Chaos' whole lives to become unstable. It looks like they know each other...why does this new hero always look at Chaos with a sad look? Like he is grieving over a loss of someone? What happened?
