In the quiet village of Draphang, life moves at its own slow, peaceful pace. Suya, an energetic schoolgirl, spends her days running through familiar streets, laughing with friends, and finding comfort in the warmth of home. But on one fateful evening, the skies darken too soon, the winds shift with an unnatural force, and an eerie stillness creeps through the valley. A warning from a senior student. A desperate call from her father. A monstrous roar echoing through the silence. Something is coming. Something ancient. Something beyond human comprehension. And when it arrives, the fate of the world will be at stake. Because some legends are not just stories. Some awaken. And some... are destined to rise.

Xander Mendez is living the dream. He has the most amazing girlfriend in the world and is a superhero. Life could literally not be better. Trevor Rossi has been the CEO of his father's company for three months now and he's only inches away from catching his father's killer. April has been interviewing the villain X for months now and she thinks she's finally understanding how he thinks while discovering herself in the process. Celeste is finding herself falling for her study partner while also fighting for her turf with a new villain in town after her prize. Mischief is what this new villain calls himself, and he's seeming to turn into their biggest threat yet. A non-super with an array of guns and other trinkets who seems to be way too interested in Momentum and Artic Frost. And with the growing shadow of the old villain X over the citizens of Kingdom City, the stakes get even higher. And it turns out maybe they're all connected more than they thought.

Xander Mendez isn't sure he knows what's real anymore. Yesterday he was sure he was a superhero protecting Kingdom City along with friends, but now he was being told all of that was made up. Xander isn't a superhero. He's a patient in a mental institution. Everyone he thought he knew is someone else. His best friend is his short-tempered hatful roommate, the girl he loved who he saw die is his therapist, and his friend the vigilante badass is a lunatic stuck at the mental age of nine. Nothing seems right. Maybe Xander really was a mental patient. Maybe he did make it all up. Maybe he was crazy. Meanwhile, in the world Xander thinks he made up, a heinous villain is trying to take over the city with a severely addictive drug, a vigilante is having second thoughts, a hero is keeping his love and nemesis captive, and an agent is coming to terms with his past. And the city's only hope may be a speedster stuck in a prison of their own creation.

I don't need to use my powers to know that he's blushing. And for good reason too, with my ridiculously stunning looks and stop dead gorgeous fashion sense, who wouldn't?

I mean, usually it's the girls that do the chasing am I right? Then again, I'm all for breaking stereotypes. Him, NightShade. And me? I am Ophelia. After all, it takes two to tango and I'm a great dancer. - Things haven't been easy for Lenna Hartley. Her parents both famous, renowned people for their work dedicated to their city.

Grayson Gordon is a 16 year old junior at Cincinnati High School. But as you may have guessed from the title of this book, he won't be a normal high schooler. Grayson is the school's nothing. He's a nerd like Peter Parker was. He's just looking for something to make people notice him, that doesn't have to do with constant tormenting and bullying. One of his frequent bullies, Max Bennet, pushes him into a spider pit as a joke. And then Grayson gets bit. ((name alliteration: Grayson Gordon like Peter Parker))

What if Superman and Captain America had been made at each other's companies, thus developing much differently in their new canons? This (potential) series of stories seeks to answer the question for the former. OK: So, I confess that this one requires the most chance and luck to pull off, not to mention three slightly forceful flaps from a Queen Alexandra's Birdwing. 1: Martin Goodman has to establish Timely Comics a year earlier than in our Timeline. 2:Most of the same artists and writers, Stan Lee Included, have to become a part of the company as well as Siegel and Shuster. 3: Joe Shuster's eye disease has to be treated due to a potentially better deal with Timely, so that both he and Jerry can become part of the Marvel bullpen full-time, with him designing all of Marvel's most iconic characters in Jack Kirby's place. (Excluding Spider-Man, of course.) But let's be honest. Stranger things have and will happen(ed). Thanks for reading.

An ex-soldier clutching at straws after losing everything. One amnesiac girl with far too much power at her disposal. Three teenagers with superpowers making a living as vigilantes. One doomed city to test their limits...and push past them. I don't own the Wormverse web serial. I do own my OC family. My friend 4eHeretic has a parallel story called Walls and Bridges. His is more of an after-action report so it'll be shorter than mine and more of a summary. I do not own the setting but I do make changes to canon for the sake of my own story. As 4eHeretic suggested, so will I. I STRONGLY recommend that you read the Wormverse first. Everything will make much more sense that way.
