Heroes at Heart by TwylaGrimm

"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")

Immortal Rise of a Superhero by Ahnaf_Sohail

What do you do when your final hope fails? What do you do when the people you are trying to protect are the reason for your own destruction? What do you do when you have to see your own world dying over and over again, and no matter what you do, you fail to protect it each and every time? That is when you recall. You recall each and every step that led to this, think, and try to find a solution for it because nobody else can. But the story is neither yours nor mine. This story is about Ahnaf, a normal high school guy living a perfect life in England with his mom. Suddenly, things take a turn when an accident occurs, and he starts developing superpowers. Read further to unravel the plot where a rookie hero explores his superhuman strength and rises up to protect his world from complete extinction-or maybe sinks it down to complete annihilation. Now with added pictures to liven the story with the help of AI.

Guide to Being a Superhero...'s BFF (Guide to Being, Novella One) by TCKauthor

Friendship doesn't change when your bestie becomes a fire-wielding champion, but a lot of other stuff does. Like having to put 'kidnapped by idiots with powers' on your weekly schedule. And enduring said idiots' cliché monologues while inwardly roasting their interior decorating skills. Hey, I'm Mira. That's right, Miracle Simmons. BFF to America's favorite superhero celeb; Firebird. (Bu-bye, Chris Evens, your reign is over.) You've probably heard of her, but not of me. That's okay! I'm her bestie! It's my job to make sure she doesn't burn herself out fighting morons, keep her focused in her actual real life, and try to show her that she doesn't have to pick every fight. Uh-huh, I have it way worse than her. Anyway, if you're reading this, you are most likely a newbie superhero bestie. Or a salty television producer. Or my mom. (Hi, Mom.) Whoever you are; buckle up, and enjoy my tale of supervillains who aren't villains-or super, superheroes who don't want to work anymore, and the rotten media that started it all. And me. The wanna-be normal engineering student who God decided had to be kidnapped to get a date.

Lesson Learned✔ by asj_28

Sequel to Teach Me, Unedited It started with a strange request and ended with a love confession. I thought it would be simple, that all I had to worry about was what to make for dinner but sixteen months into our relationship, I knew how wrong I was. I realized that this was far from the perfect picturesque home I had envisioned. From the beginning, I knew what I was getting myself into or I think I did. I knew how important the hospital was for him, the hours he worked. I saw how much it took him from me and I tried to pretend it was fine when it wasn't. Uncertainty fills my mind with the unspoken words between us. Fear coats my tongue with people meddling in our business, trying to pull us apart to destroy what is already fragile. I saw how hard it would be to keep us together. Cover done by @Softie113123 All Rights Reserved ©solxr28 ©asj_28 December 2020

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?

The Undoing of Sidekicks | ✓ by earlyatdusk

Sidekicks. The sad, ever-suffering excuses of heroes - a title you tack onto someone who's trying, just not hard enough. Few can shed this sad label and pave their own path. I intend to be one of them. The heroes are crowding enough of the spotlight, in my opinion. It's time for me to step up. I just know I can do it - I'll be the undoing of sidekicks. ≈ standalone extension to the undoing of heroes' universe. ✎ completed cover: @narwhelly
