After gaining teleportation powers in a tragic accident that, depending on who you ask, may have been entirely his fault, Ethan is on the brink of reaching his goal and becoming Ascension's newest Protector. It cost him every relationship he had, but nobody said purposefully altering your DNA to become a superhero would be easy.
Things would be a lot easier if Ethan also hadn't accidentally created the newest supervillain to roam Ascension, armed with incredible powers and a seeming vendetta against his sister, the mighty Protector known as Titan.
And it'd be great if the breach points popping up in the mountains outside of Ascension and moving ever closer weren't directly related to Ethan gaining abilities in the first place, but nobody has to know about that part, right?
Ethan can keep it all a secret if he can team up with an eccentric Apex scientist to fix the breaches before they swallow Ascension whole and stop Slate before she kills Titan. Then nobody would have to know it was all his fault in the first place, right?
He'd also like to get his best friend Raz talking to him again, but that may be the hardest goal to achieve of them all.
Ethan can go anywhere he wants, but he'll soon find out that the only way to fix what he's broken is to stay put. Unfortunately for him, after you burn every bridge you've ever crossed, staying in one place has an unpleasant side effect:
It makes you a pretty easy target.

System Malfunction: I'm Not a Hero, I'm an Anomaly
Erevan Arclight never asked to be a hero. One moment he was logging into the hottest full-dive MMO of the century- the next, he woke up inside it. Only... something's wrong. His so-called "legendary SSS system" isn't overpowered. It's broken. Weapons morph into sheep. Healing spells explode. Time rewinds at random. Every fight feels less like strategy and more like surviving a developer's drunken coding spree. But the truth is far worse. Erevan isn't just bugged-he's branded an Anomaly Bearer, a living error the System cannot patch out. His very existence corrupts quests, bends Sovereigns, cults, and guilds into collision courses, and drags the world toward the Convergence Protocol-a collapse where gods, timelines, and realities overlap into impossible ruin. Alongside a sarcastic NPC who knows too much, a rival player obsessed with order, and a cloaked villain whispering of hidden truths, Erevan is forced to confront the question the System refuses to answer: Is he a mistake meant to be deleted... or the one flaw that changes everything? This is not a hero's journey. This is the chronicle of an anomaly who refuses to be patched out.
Becoming Her Dark Side
They lied to me. My own family. My so-called friends. All of them hiding the truth, that we're tied to the criminal underworld, a forte where my family, the Storms, are the undisputed kings. Then everything falls apart. My dad gets framed. My cousin ends up dead. And the boy I've had a childhood crush on-Nathaniel-turns out to be the one who could destroy me. At least Luke, the one person I shouldn't want, fights to keep me from breaking... but even he has secrets. But it's gets even worse, because now an organization is rising from the shadows, an organization that opposes everything my family stands for. And in a family of warmongers and sociopaths, I stood out as a glaring weakness. The most normal, the most vulnerable, and the most efficient way to end a dynasty that has ruled for centuries. Because what is a throne without an heir, and a crown without its king. So here I am, stuck in a game of blood and betrayal where the only way to survive is to stop being the fragile girl they thought I was. If I have to burn bridges, spill blood, and embrace the monster inside me, then so be it. Because this time, I'm not running from my darkness. I'm becoming it.
ECLIPSE OF INFINITY
In the city of Aeteris, a futuristic metropolis protected by plasma domes from the wrath of interstellar storms, Ethan Solis stumbles upon an ancient alien artifact-the Arc-Helix-while scavenging a forgotten junkyard. What should have been just another relic of the past instead fuses with his very being, rewriting his genetic code and granting him unimaginable abilities. But power comes with a cost. As Ethan struggles to control his newfound energy manipulation and heightened cognition, an AI embedded in the Arc-Helix, Nyx, begins guiding him. Soon, he is thrust into a conflict far beyond his world. The Arc-Helix was once wielded by a legendary warrior who safeguarded the multiverse-now, Ethan is the reluctant heir to this responsibility. But forces are already moving against him. The Syntherion Collective, a ruthless organization bent on harnessing the multiverse's instability for ultimate power, will stop at nothing to claim the Arc-Helix. With danger looming, Ethan must forge unlikely alliances, uncover long-buried secrets, and push his limits to prevent the Fracture, a cataclysm that threatens to collapse reality itself. As he reaches the limits of his abilities, he faces a terrifying choice: unlock the Arc-Helix's final form, risking his humanity in the process, or sacrifice his power to save existence. Either way, Ethan's fate is set-he will either become the savior of infinity or be consumed by it.Complete
Shadow
I live in a pretty screwed up world. I mean, we all do, but mine's a little more screwed up than your average American city. First off, I have that cliché sort of crush on my best friend. The second part of that cliché is that he's interested in every other girl but me. Second, we have superheroes. A lot of them. Flying everywhere like annoying insects, teleporting like it doesn't scare the crap out of the rest of us, defeating bad guys like they're the new Mr. Incredible. The whole works. The third thing is, I'm one of those superheroes. My name is Kiera Knight, but the rest of the world knows me as Shadow. _________________________ Kiera Knight has been saving Cryptic City from her nemesis, Blaze, for two years now. As soon as she thinks she's got him under control, the wildfire spreads chaos through both of her lives-as Shadow and Kiera. But she soon finds out that masks can't hide every secret, and she might have been helping guard a secret that could put Cryptic City in ruins. "I hate supervillains. But after being a superhero, I think I'd prefer to be a supervillain now." _________________________ (I seriously didn't even think of Keira Knightley when I made up her name. Just thought I'd let you know.)Complete
