Grace Shields has lived an ordinary life: she lives with her older brother, goes to high school with her two best friends, and, for the most part, deals with ordinary teenage problems like school projects and crushes. Except for the part where she can make lightning crackle in her hands and has an older brother who moonlights as the superhero Tempest, controlling the wind.  

She trains every day to eventually join her brother out on the streets and become a superhero in her own right. But as an unexpected event sends her life spiraling down a different path, secrets threaten to tear her world apart, along with the mystery of a dangerous threat lurking underneath the surface.
  
As the life she had always dreamed of turns out to be darker than she imagined, she scrambles to hold her life together as her secrets threaten to swallow her whole as the foundation of her life seemingly crumbles from underneath her feet.

The Darkness in the Light by djscloud
25 parts Complete
For over a hundred years, humanity has lived in fear of the monsters that roam the streets, lurking in the drains below. Women and their daughters hide, protected in their homes, while men take their sons through the world, teaching them the responsibilities of having a family to feed and dangers to avoid. No one leaves the home unless it's essential, and most of the world prefers it that way. Until one girl spends her days perched on her window seat, looking down at the world below and dreaming of a different life. Her eyes are always drawn to the dark, ominous drains in the street, the ones that often blink open to swallow and person whole. One day, that person is her little brother, snatched right in front of her from their arms of their father and gone forever. When a person is snatched, they never return, and life goes on without them. But she can't accept that. Breaking all the rules, all the things she's ever known, she braves the world outside her little townhouse and goes on a mission into the darkness to find her brother. Only, it's soon her that becomes the one lost to the drains. To survive she must rediscover her world, and in the process, rediscover herself. She will be reunited with old friends, gain new ones, find out deeper secrets about her past than she ever could have imagined, and learn that the world is even more corrupt than she always thought. *** This story contains sexist ideology, mention of cheating, some gruesome scenes, and a whole lot of monsters and darkness. It isn't overly mature... there isn't much explicit language or sexual scenes, but there is a bit of violence, so just keep that in mind... and despite all that negativity, ENJOY!
