Freight-Tale by DrhickmanzxConnor

Sky Hilling was seemingly a normal guy. In his young twenties and apart of the LGBT community, he seemed full of life. But everything changed, that was when 'The Wave' hit anyway. All over the world, people began to change. Physically, mentally or both... It was like people levelled up in some way. People, animals... Anything sentient began to develop powers. The media dubbed them "Powered People". Something simple for the human race to help them dive into more discrimination. Sky was one of these individuals, gaining Pyrokinesis on top of a few other abilities. With these powers, a kind and caring attitude and a supportive sister. Watch Sky Hilling become... Freight-Tale! Book 1 In The Outcasts Bookverse. Character Credit: Doctor Stevens - Isthmoid

The Aspiring Super Hero by Liar-Man

Life is hard, isn't it? This fact is something that people never get tired of talking about. Discovering ourselves is something we take our whole lives to completely do. In the end, the goal is always to be happy, despite all the hard stuff, as this wonderful and strong person we've been working so hard to become. We walk through our lives every day, every day, trying and trying and trying to not trip and fall onto the hard rocks we tread on, making our way slowly but surely to the place where we can finally be the people we want to be. What if you were tired of trying, tired of walking, and you decided one day that you were going to be flying through it all, above all the rocks?

Two Idiots and a Cape by Cosmic0Writings

When the resident villain Antennes found the hero NightHawk unconscious after their latest fight, he did what any villain would do, and took the opportunity to capture the hero. He expected the hero to fight back, lash out, probably kick his butt and escape, but he DIDN'T expect to find the hero wrapped snuggly in his cape, looking warm and adorable. Oh wow, was it warm in here? No actually, it was pretty cold, so why was his face hot? And WHY was his heart feeling like it was about to explode? You know what, he was just gonna let the hero go. This was too much. Now add in another psychotic villain bent on killing NightHawk, and things just get ridiculous.

The perfect timing (In Editing) by JustmeN

I'm not like wonder woman, supergirl or catwoman. The only similarity we share is that we all have an extraordinary ability and are females. Many people would say having superpowers was a gift from god and the best thing that could ever happen to you. But not for me, being able to freeze time was more of a burden, because I couldn't control it and it had the worst timing to appear. I also didn't think about being a superhero and rescuing the world from the bad. The only thing I want is to be left alone and get over with my last year of high school. But of course everything came different and it all started with me attracting accidentally the attention of Reece Matthews. (cover made by Cjc8357)

The Best Intentions by darkestnightskies

When you get flashy superpowers thanks to a chemical spill, you're supposed to become a superhero, right? Sabrina Flynn has absolutely no reason to go out and play vigilante. Two loving parents, a doting grandpa, more money than she could ever spend, and no tragic past pushing her to go out at night and seek justice. But when she develops superspeed and vigilantes start popping up all over the city, Sabrina gets an idea. The thing is, supervillains aren't always the threat. Iron Beach had a problem with organized crime, and the main hindrance in Sabrina's race to saving the city is the woman in charge of it all, Natalia Mendoza. The problem is, there isn't a way to stop her without becoming someone else. Something else. A villain. ***** Ranked #8 in supervillain

Vera Pyra (The Flash) (Book One) by plltwtvd1997

Vera Mitchell is no stranger to heartbreak, pain and devastation. Her family died in a tragic fire when she was a little girl, and it doomed her to a life of anger and despair, foster care families, and most of all, loneliness. But that didn't stop her from becoming the best that she could be, even while isolating herself as much as possible. Then she gets these powers. She doesn't know what they mean at first, but she is willing to find out, and willing to use them for good instead of evil. But, obviously, every metahuman needs a badass alias. Vera's alias? Pyra. But of course, with power, comes responsibilities, blah, blah, blah... and finally maybe to be able to let go of the past and move on with the future. Until she finds out that she's being betrayed once again.

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???

ᑌᑎᔕTᗴᗩᗪY by Lava98

Wanting to be a superhero and becoming one, are two completely different things. But becoming the opposite? That's way easier. And sometimes it's not on purpose. Fate didn't want me to be a hero. I was a fairly normal girl, growing up in Central City. A city where superheroes and super villains didn't exist... until the particle accelerator exploded. Many people were turned into these metahumans, me being one of them. Likely one of the only changed nine year olds at the time. My parents were both scientists for Star Labs, being two of the many others that died in the blast. Needing to get away, I decided to move to Gotham. A good city to hide in. Maybe it wasn't the best city to move to, but, in the end, I'm glad I did. In the crazy town, I was adopted by the two craziest people there. The Deranged Duo, Harley Quinn and Joker. "Rescued by villains, who knew?" I say. "Villains rescue fellow villains," Joker says. "Sounds funny coming from you," I scoff. "Aww, is that the way you should treat your saviors?" Joker teases. "I could've taken them," I scoff. "Why did you save me?" "We watched you take out the last group of thugs," Harley says. "We've been looking for a protégé, sorta like how Batsy has that sidekick, Robin, was it?" Joker grins. "We like you. You're funny." ...
