Unheroic Life of a Certain Cape
It wasn’t supposed to be like this. I mean, sure, I dropped out of school—big deal. The system didn’t have much use for someone like me anyway. But in a world where anyone with powers gets looked at like they’re radioactive, it’s not like I had a lot of options. The whole "hero" thing was a joke, and working minimum wage wasn’t cutting it. So, yeah, I tried something else.Villainy.Not the "twirling a mustache and laughing maniacally" kind, but the kind where you knock over a store, pay the bills, and maybe catch a break. Turns out, it’s not as easy as it looks. Especially when people with bigger powers and bigger plans decide to take notice.I wasn’t looking for trouble—I swear. Trouble just found me. And when it did, it turned my whole world upside down.Set in an alternate world where superpowers had existed way before the Dark Ages.
