“You have powers.”
"My life was changed forever by three little words- words with no special meaning all alone. But you’re probably confused right now so let me start from the beginning. It all started one normal summer day…"
Rayne Jorden was your average teen who went to school, hung out with friends, did a couple of sports, blah, bablah, bablah. Then that all changed with a snap of the fingers. One moment she was making smoothies at her shitty part time job, the next she's being whisked away to some school for "Gifted People" with no explanations, no reasons, no nothing. Apparently she has some magical powers, or so she's been told but even she doesn't know what they are!
If you think fitting in regular school is hard enough, try fitting in with a bunch of hormonal and slightly insane teens with deadly powers who don't take too kindly to powerless creatures. Include that with an Ice- hearted asshole who just makes her everyday life a living hell, and well you basically got yourself into some deep shit.
But it doesn't stop there; oh no. That would be waaaaay too easy. Once a monster from long ago awakens and threatens to destroy the earth, Rayne is dubbed as mankind's only hope -powerless or not. Will Rayne save the world? Or will she die trying? One thing's for sure, Rayne will find out more about herself on this journey, about her new life, and most importantly what she's capable of doing. After all, "I was the seventh generation- the generation of greatness."

Static
{COMPLETED} "now that you've had your fun electrocuting me, would you care to hop in the backseat?" ---------------------------------------------------------- Freak DNA. That's what I like to call it. The fault to my genetic code. More often than not, it's a curse. The static running through my blood gave me a name. A cruel, daunting label of a measly bug. A roach. That's what I am to them, to the government. Roach; the nameless monster with electricity for a sense and lightening as a second nature. It ruined my life, the sparking currents playing tag in my mind, running around and bumping into everything, shaking me loose. The government, actually. They ruined my life. My curse just gave them a reason. You see, the normal population with ordinary DNA, they don't know about the people like me. The roaches of the world. We don't get that kind of recognition at the camps. There, we are only one thing in the military's eyes. We are weapons and we will act like it. Everyone else out there, bathing in the goodness they don't know they've got, they don't know about the roaches their stepping on. As long as their getting closer to the sky, they don't care what they stand on to reach it. They don't know about the sparkling dreamer that's killed 7 people before her 17th birthday. They don't about the ghost of a girl peaking around corners for her entire life because even home wasn't safe. They don't know about the fighter of steel and iron sucking on his bloody lip courtesy of the wars he battles in as nothing but a shadow. They don't know about the masked villain who would do anything to see the army they lead claim the throne They don't know about us. But they will, because we will rise. And when we arrive, we will arrive violently. ___________________________________________ Started: 10.06.15 Finished: 3.17.16Complete

Empowered
As the narrator, I'm tempted to simply write "Middle Finger" because that is essentially what you'll feel like I'm giving you in telling this story. However, for the sake of not being a complete dick, I'll write a little more than just a description of a disrespectful gesture. This story can aptly be described as crude and deranged. As you may have surmised, a crazy person will be telling this story, and the characters involved are indeed also all crazy in their own special ways. So, given this exercise in mental illness, the topics touched on (in no particular order) in this tale are destruction, death, superpowered wackos, torture, pain, loneliness, chaos, the will to survive, never giving up, giving up and not giving a shit, the desire to protect, failing to protect and causing more trouble than was already present, disappointing and/or abusive parental figures, bullies, unjust punishments, just punishments, racism, violent and usually superpowered fights, sci-fi gadgets, bitterness, sarcasm, twisted and demented comedy, control or lack thereof, weird and awkward high school drama, lies and brainwashing, alien aggression, moral ambiguity, unhinged villains, fantastical weapons, a piece of shit main character, conditional friendship, a fuck load of musical references, anger, fear, depression, extra-dimensional creatures, godly powers, various esoteric connections, pop culture references, and of course, in general, superpowers.Complete
