Emerson Rogers liked to think of himself as an ordinary teenager. After all, he had no reason to believe otherwise. He went to an upstanding private school with the rest of his friends, was a straight-A student, had no disciplinary issues, and was well-liked according to his classmates and teachers. If anyone were to take a glance at him, they would assume that he was just another carefree rich kid with no problems in his life to worry about. Unless you consider the fact that his evening plans included putting on a blue super suit and speeding through the streets as a crime-fighting superhero. Okay, so maybe his life wasn't as ordinary and carefree as he liked to portray it. With Emerson starting his senior year of high school, things have started to become a bit more tricky than he would've preferred.

Heroes at Heart
"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.

Esper: Journey To A New World - Year 1
Bryen Avilla always thought he was ordinary-just an adopted son in a famous Esper family, content to watch the world move on around him. But when his long-awaited school entry at the prestigious ESP Academy hurls him into a swirl of fiery tests, cryptic placements, and dangerous rivalries, "ordinary" goes up in smoke. Between star-flecked dorm rooms, mind-bending training fields, and an ominous whisper of "Rogues" who threaten the Cosmics themselves, Bryen soon realizes there's more to his strange powers than any routine aptitude test can measure. While his classmates vie for top rank, Bryen struggles with a mysterious, unreadable energy signature that leaves him branded as a lowly D-tier. Yet chance encounters with arrogant nobles, secretive S-tier prodigies, and an uptight professor who despises his "kind" hint at a deeper heritage neither he nor the Academy truly understands. Torn between a loyal friend with ice in her veins and a brazen new ally who wields fire and lightning, Bryen finds himself balancing tenuous alliances, looming threats, and the specter of a cosmic legacy gone awry. As epic competitions like RiftRush loom and sinister forces stir in the shadows, Bryen must rise beyond the stigma of his dubious rank-or risk vanishing into the very darkness that seeks to devour the world of Espers. After all, question marks can be deceiving, and the greatest power may lie in the secrets everyone else has dismissed. Where do Bryen's strange visions truly come from? What menace brews behind the Academy's polished halls? Discover a realm where cosmic gifts meet everyday strife, and destiny hinges on the unlikeliest sparks of hope. Will Bryen become the hero no one expects, or the outcast forever trapped by fate? Not the best writer(yet) been working on this since 2017, thought I'd upload it here into parts.
