"Appearances can be deceiving- especially if you're not looking hard enough."
This is a story about superheroes. Also, it isn't. I should know. I'm trapped in it.

***

Meet Jack. A stereotypical protagonist with a tragic backstory who discovers he has powers and uses them to save The City aided by his trusted friends- except he isn't.

What's the hushed-up secret the Government is keeping about The City- and why is it against a hero?

What's up with Jack's history teacher?

What exactly is his University hiding?

Why is there the occasional unnecessary reference?

How sinister are the skeletons lurking in his so-called friends' cupboards?

And which one of them is a cold-blooded murderer?

Secrets, secrets, everywhere- but the more he unravels, the closer he thinks he is to being free, the more Jack finds himself linked to forces outside his control and events he barely remembers, stuck in a fictional universe where, it would seem, everyone is against him.

"You ungrateful bitch. I keep a roof over your head, and this is the thanks I get?" "You could have killed her," I retort, trying to muster up confidence that I don't possess. "What if she goes to the cops, Dad? That bruise on her face is enough to get you arrested and charged with assault." "What? You mean when she tripped over the mess you made in the kitchen?" His smile is so wicked that it chills me to my core. "She ain't going to the cops. Hell, she'll probably be back here tomorrow." "You're a bastard," I whisper, tears filling my eyes. "No wonder Mom left! She probably couldn't bear to spend another second with-" I'm pushed to the floor. I scramble backwards as he approaches me, his cheeks scarlet with rage, his pupils the size of needle points. In fourteen years, I've never seen him this mad. I've really done it this time. -------------------- (COMPLETED) Life is hard when nowhere feels like home. For Layla Dodds, there is only one goal: survival.

He replied as he looked into my eyes. -x- When London's best agent from F.O.R.C.E, Clarke Augustan, is assigned as Aaron Cortez's undercover bodyguard, or 'babysitter' as she puts it, life throws her way challenges, secrets, twists, misfired bullets (fortunately), and few boys who cause more trouble than her neighbour's cat. And life isn't all easy for Aaron Cortez with the numerous threats and snipers aiming at him. His sudden interest in the new girl at school doesn't help him for little does he know she is armoured with secrets that would probably give him a heart attack. What happens when the secret is finally out? Whose secrets are we even talking about now? -x- "We have another thing common, Miss Clarke. We both have an unwavering urge to avenge." "You know, there is something else in common too," I spoke as I walked around examining my surroundings. "And that is, Miss Clarke?" He asked with a short amused laugh. "We've both come very close to meeting death; one too many times." It was my turn to look at him and laugh, "What makes us different thought is that you'll be the only one meeting him tonight." -x- She is in love with her modern-day Prince Charming and him, His knight in sneakers. Soon in cinemas. Not. I hope so. |editing| _______ Please don't copy the storyline, that would be really really really sick. Thank you for reading, It will not disappoint you.

Shortlisted for the Open Novella Contest 2019 • Being a Supervillain is tough. Between managing a secret lair and making sure your mom doesn't stop loving you because you keep telling everyone she's dead, it's a really hard business to be good at? Add to that, the fact that somehow you got arrested because your cat sitter didn't take the day off and then you go around expressing your unconditional love for pancakes in a Super holding cell because technically they can't put you in a proper prison and you don't really have a choice because lawyers are expensive? And then, you realise your best friend is plotting go take over your spot as the greatest villain there ever was? Okay, maybe not the greatest, but you do come pretty close to it! To top it off, there's that one Superhero who's just so completely gorgeous, you couldn't imagine any harm coming to them? Because they're just that precious? I guess that makes me a Supervillain with minor time travel superpowers and a huge crush on a not so powerful Superhero? And all you have to do is protect yourself and everyone you love from your ex best friend/sidekick --because let's face it that's the highest level of praise for a wretched traitor here--and you also have to get out of Super Holding somehow? What could go wrong? Right?
