《Water and Ice | Shoto Todoroki》Chapter 13-Captive
Advertisement
My eyes blinked open. I was in a dark room. It was extremely hot, I felt like I would burn. I still felt dizzy and I suddenly remembered what had happened.
"I see you're awake." Someone said.
I tried to respond but I was gagged. The man had light blue hair and hands covering his body. I tried to activate my quirk, but I only got a weak trail of frost.
"That won't work here. Your weakness is heat, it's like your opposite. You can't perform under high temperature." He explained.
I narrowed my eyes and tried to say something. He walked over and took off the gag.
"Why am I here?" I asked.
"You'll find out soon enough." He said.
"That's not an answer."
He started to scratch his neck.
"Who are you?" I asked him.
"We are the League of Villains." He said.
More people stepped out of the shadows.
"Why are you doing this?" I asked.
"You will be the first addition to our team. Our first step to take down UA and the hero society." He said.
"I would never join you." I told him.
"We'll see about that."
They left the room. I had to think about my options, but the heat was frying my brain. So this was the League of Villains. I'd never heard of them, but they must be criminals. I had no idea how long I'd been out, maybe no one from school or my family had noticed yet. I didn't come home from my walk so my mother was bound to worry. If I didn't meet up with Ura and the others they might think something was up too. When I don't show up to school on Monday, they'll definitely get worried. I just hoped they would try and find me sooner rather than later.

I tried again to use my quirk, but nothing happened. I was completely drained. Suddenly a blond girl came skipping in with a tray of food.
"Hi! I'm Toga!" She introduced herself.
I narrowed my eyes at her.
"Sorry about the kidnapping and all that. You were on Shiggy's recruit list, and me and Dabi couldn't help ourselves when we just saw you walking around all alone!" She said while smiling.
This girl freaked me out, it definitely seemed like she had a screw loose. She took some oatmeal and a spoon off the tray.
"Open up!" She scooped some out.
"What? No way. How do I know there isn't poison in there?" I asked.
"Do you really think we would go to all the trouble of kidnapping you if we just wanted to kill you? We could have killed you in that alley easily." She said.
That wasn't a very comforting thought. I still refused to eat. Toga sighed and sat cross-legged on the floor.
"Why am I here?" I asked her.
"Shiggy wants you to join the League! He thinks that you've got a strong quirk and you'd be a 'very powerful ally'." She used finger quotes.
"Who's Shiggy?" I asked.
"Oh, he's that hand guy from earlier!" She said happily.
"What makes him think he can make me join the League?" I asked.
"Well, he thinks that if you stay here long enough then you'll eventually see it his way." She explained.
"How long have I been here?" I asked slowly.
"A week."

Risen
Note: Slight edits to early chapters (and removal of one chapter - previously chapter 2) have been made 2/2/21 The city, my city, had once been alive in a way that was hard to describe. Thriving, active, hopeful. Vibrant. But life, as I had come to learn, sometimes possesses only the most tenuous of grasps. Finally, in the end, it became my city - mine alone. I was, after all, the only one left. Worse, it was entirely my fault. There was red in my ledger that could never be wiped clean. Not while I still lived, anyway. This story follows Eran, a man who became the opposite of everything he had ever wanted to be; in a world where superpowers began to appear in a rare few, his lack of control over his own power relegated him to the role of a terrible villain - the Reaper, named so for the countless lives that he absorbed and made his own, each only furthering his deadly lack of control. Gone mad with guilt and isolation, he strove for a single heroic act - his own demise. Death was less permanent than he hoped. Centuries later, he woke to a changed world and in a body not his own. Unfortunately, his power came with him. Yet this time, things would be different. This time, he had a chance to bring it under control. He could never truly make up for the things he had done; he could never achieve redemption. That wouldn't stop him from trying to be a hero. Cover courtesy of the amazing Vitaly S Alexius, author of Romantically Apocalyptic. Go check him out!

Warden of Success - A LitRPG
In the future of Earth humans are no longer the dominant species. Monsters, vampires, elves and all manners of otherworldly threats now threaten the planet and its people. And for one such as Camille, there was nothing she could do. A failed martial artist, Camille swallowed her pride and dreams, all the while sinking into the world of video games. Until she died. Reawakening with newfound power in her very own bed, there's no doubting that she's an oddity. And as the only individual in the world with the body of a video game character, she's ecstatic. No longer will she just be content with playing games in her dark room, taking over fantasy worlds as a great heroine. Rather, she'll do something better. And that'll be to take over the real one instead. Whether it be mages, demons or other supernatural entities that stand in her way, it doesn't matter. Camille may be a level one at first, but dammit if she wasn't going to try to reach one hundred. This is not a crunchy LitRPG and gradually becomes more of a character driven story that just happens to have a main character with LitRPG abilities. There will be a variety of powers/abilities that are explored later in the setting involving magic systems and other technological advancements. The first 10 chapters were written with satirical undertones, but begin to develop more into its own entity after that.
