Every generation has stories of heroes and how they save the day from evil threatening the world. For an ever expanding group of young adults, this is how they live their lives. They track down new super humans and recruit them to join the House of Heroes, known to the public as the House of Rejects, a place for troubled teens. Their enemies, The Shade, are also looking for new members. The two sides constantly get into fights which escalates into a war in the future.
Aegis is from that future and he hates it. He hates all super humans, villains and heroes alike, despite being one himself. In order to right the wrongs of the past, he goes back in time seventy years. He wants to destroy both the House of Heroes and The Shade to stop the destruction of the world, but what will he do when he joins the House of Heroes and comes to care for each member of his team?
The time traveler,
the speedster,
the shifter,
the witch,
the quick-draw,
the Avery,
the elementals,
and the psychic.
This rag tag group of heroes must join together to stop The Shade, but nothing is ever that simple.

"Come out little rabbit." The voice was deep and menacing, and I would've soiled myself right there if I were any younger. I couldn't see very well, but I could see what little moonlight that filtered through the trees reflected off a pale face. His gaze was like a hungry, crazed wolf hunting its prey.

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.

A mission like any other fails to go as planned, and Kit and her team find themselves confronted with a mysterious new villain with a new dangerous power that threatens all of superhero-kind. In the wake of an unexpected loss, they have to compensate with a new arrival to the crew--one whom Kit would have preferred to never see again. To top it all off, there's family health problems, daddy issues, bullying, a lot of homework, and a burgeoning romance with an old enemy. Well--if you want to call it that.

The Darkness in the Light
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!Complete
