The world is unfair. 
A shitty job, a horrible girlfriend, an asshole driver.
But wishing for the power to make a difference can be a dangerous gamble. 

The worst can happen: you get what you wish for. 

What if you woke up to that world? 
A world filled with impossible powers and life-changing abilities. A world where you could finally do the one thing you had been desperately fighting for.

How long could that secret possibly last before terrified governments and greedy individuals take the promise of a greater future and ground it down to dust?

 And what, if anything, could you do about it?All Rights Reserved

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?

Better Undercover by job_books

Courtney had more problems than other high schoolers: she discovered that she has superpowers, watched her parents get killed, learned that ever memory of the past year was a lie, and was recruited by the girl who was responsible for altering her memories to save the world. Maybe it would be a good thing. Courtney could go along with the girl's plan, get her memory back and move on with her life, but in order to protect her siblings and the rest of the world, she has to embrace her powers. The plan takes a sharp turn when Courtney's powers take over and she becomes more dangerous than the original threat. Some things are better undercover, but sometimes facing yourself and fighting is the only way to make things right. But will Courtney destroy herself and everything she has ever known in order to set things right? Sequel to Staying Undercover, but can be read without reading Staying Undercover

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)

Villain Academy #JustWriteIt [WATTY AWARD WINNER OF 2015] by 3pointt14

WATTY AWARD WINNER OF 2015 - #JustWriteIt Challenge ✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾ The hero of her dreams was too bad to be true. ✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾✾ Villain Academy; where all the psychotic teenagers are trained to be the world's best villains. Try being the baddest of them all when the Puberty Truck is smacking you in the face--repeatedly. It's a hard time for young, attractive villains who haven't reached eighteen. And you'd think they already have enough to deal with when their worst urban legend fear appears: The Hero. So isolating evil-minded, puberty-hitting, aggressive teenagers into a confined brick building may not be the most intelligent choice of mankind. It was inevitable for there to be one hell of a problem. And that problem was me.

The Super Squad (Discontinued) by Rogu32

There are a million possibilities. Possibilities that we don't get to travel. Possibilities that we don't get to see. Possibilities that can cause even the smallest changes. My possibility, well, let's just say that gifted teenagers, biological experimentation, mutants from another world and worldwide panic are a part of it and it's up to me and my friends to save it. I am no longer writing in this story, I became unhappy with how it came out but I am rewriting it because I fell in love with the idea so much so if you are new or recurring I ask you to read the new version I have coming out. Hope you all enjoy!!

Hero's Protector by WritingSarcasm

What would you do if you were one of these heroes? If you were the boy that lives with his single dad that's completely worthless, would you run away or keep fighting? If you and your sibling were hero and villain, how would you treat eachother? Would you fight them, or try to fight that part of your lives? Well, while the group of heroes are going through that, they go have some fun. They soon forget their responsibility and leave their leader to do the hard work alone. When it ends with their leader getting fatally injured, they must protect him from his father while also doing all his tasks. On top of that, mobs of people are surrounding him, now that they know he's a hero. Between angry parents, crazy teachers, evil siblings, reporting mobs and endless school work, these heroes are at their breaking point. Will the leader have to take control again, or can the heroes handle the job? In a world of masks and capes, who can you trust? Who's really the hero? Maybe the villain isn't who they all thought at all. None of the art is mine, all credit goes to the artist.

Being superhuman has many ups and even more downs, some people admire you and think you're super cool and others watch your every move or want to dissect you. When the first super was born in 2230 science left morality behind and did unthinkable experiments on him. At the age of ten the first super died due to the extreme experiments he underwent, causing riots and rifts in society. These tears would form into factions, 'The Black Wing,' 'Soup-or-Heroes,' and many other groups who actively interact with the superhuman community. Follow Yami as he learns more about himself, humanity, and the factions that claim to help the world. Choices that take more than a moral compass and the pressure to do the 'right' thing slowly eat at a young man's psyche, but to what end?

different (Trilogy: BOOK 1) ✔ by dakotah1212

But, I would trade my life with yours cause' I hate having this fear everyday. People fear me though. They're afraid that I'll hurt them, but would never hurt a soul.
