~PARAGON CINEMATIC UNIVERSE: PHASE 4, BOOK 2~

*This novel serves as the 2nd novel of Phase 4 and a sequel to "Lightspeed".*

"My wayward daughter was an impudent fool for not wanting to follow in our footsteps.....and now, she has paid the ultimate price. The Celestial Syndicate shall forge on, and nothing will stop us.....least of all you." -Angelo Acosta

After the reversal of the galactic titan Galaxara's decimation of almost all sentient humanoid life on Earth, the high-speed heroine Ariel Axilas a.k.a. Lightspeed has returned to her hometown of Cambridge, Massachusetts to continue her studies at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, a worker at the Axilas Residence's auto repair business, and her secret career as the superheroine Lightspeed. Everything appears to be going smoothly until she is contacted by the Paragon James Markovsky a.k.a. Powerhouse, who requests her to investigate the operations of a drug cartel known as the Celestial Syndicate, who are allegedly stationed out of the capital of Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic. 

James informs Ariel that the Syndicate is headed by both a corrupt man named Angelo Acosta.....and his wife Daniela Acosta, with their daughter being the illegal immigrant Isabella Acosta a.k.a. Sharpshooter, whom James himself has recently had a rather tragic adventure with. Since James is busy with his life back in Seattle, Washington, he has asked Ariel to look into things due to her super speed enabling her to cover very vast distances in very short amounts of time, as well as Ariel's position as a migrant and her familiarity with the situation; in other words, he figures she'd want to help out someone who was much like her. 

And so, to avenge Isabela and help James in finding a path forward for undocumented children, Ariel sets out on another solo adventure to thwart Angelo and Daniela's illegal drug trade, while also making strides towards breaking migrant stigma at the same time.

You will give everything to me, for I'm.....your Mastermind." -Maxwell "Max" Atkins a.k.a. Mastermind Half a year after the official formation of The Paragons and Malcorchus's defeat, Herman, one of The Viper's close friends, is reaping the benefits of having saved the planet at large, obtaining renowned fame while regularly protecting his home city of Mercury Heights alongside her, Dr. Duncan Drevis, The Crawler, and Duncan's sister, Monica Drevis, a.k.a. Shocker. However, trouble soon arises after several law enforcement officers start going missing across the country before later turning up dead, resulting in police departments experiencing severe staff shortages. To make matters worse, grave-robbing incidents have started to become more prominent across the U.S., drawing the suspicion of many. The only clue ever found at the crime scenes is one word---"Mastermind"---and the culprits are now believed to be hiding out in Mercury Heights. Commissioner Marvin, the commander of the Mercury Heights Police Department, has begun looking into the case, recruiting Herman for aid as well. But for the most part, they are on their own; with The Viper, Dr. Duncan Drevis, The Crawler, and Shocker all away on a different mission in the Rusted Citadel, it now falls to Herman, Commissioner Marvin, Giorgio Carlisle, and the newly-recruited Officer Didi to bring "Mastermind" to justice and end his twisted crusade against police officers everywhere, before even more members of law enforcement perish under the might of his misguided conquest. • Cover designed by @Castiment

And as a hidden evil begins to arise from the shadows, Lilith will have to tackle her new life as a hero student with a clear conviction of whom she wants to be and what she'll sacrifice to get there.

"It's either that or they take your soul anyway along with your virginity, happiness, innocence, and everything that made you, you. They strip you until you're nothing but just a body to use." Iris words fill the room as she makes her way on the other side of Jade. "They break you." A girl with brown hair says softly and put eyes snap to her.

With an anonymous president and hostile community, Veera relishes her moonlit activities as Void, the shadow villain. Emotionally terrorizing her victims in hopes that they change their ways, Veera lives by burying her feelings and being what society wants her to be - teacher by day, vigilante, or villain, as the world calls her - by night. But with every villain, there's a hero and the hero to Veera's villain persona calls himself Spotlight. Their battles could rival the squabbling of a newly married couple, yet both Void and Spotlight are nothing near being a couple. They're strangers, enemies - people on different sides of the law. That changes, though, when a picture with no context is released to the public, sparking a worldwide debate about the relationship between Void and Spotlight. And as if that wasn't bad enough, there's a new hero in town - Infinite. To Void, he's nothing more than another nuisance, but to Spotlight, he's a mystery; an enemy. When havoc falls onto the city and eerily corresponds with Infinite's arrival, Spotlight, and Void have to put all feelings aside to solve the mystery that digs so deep in the past that they may never recover from it. ~*~ Featured on @antiherosgalore "Wicked Women": 12/19/22 Featured on @crime "Like a Woman": 5/28/23 Featured on @superheroes "Anti-Heroes and Awesome Antagoni
