The New Kid At Superhero Academy

Every scanner broke when you arrived

#superhero #academy #mystery #fantasy #slowburn #romance #drama

The moment you stepped through Vanguard Academy's front gates, every power scanner on campus screamed and went dark.

Nobody knows what you are. Not the staff. Not the students. The rumor spread before you even found the cafeteria.

Now you push open the double doors and three hundred heads turn at once. Trays stop midair. Conversations die. Someone drops a fork and the clatter echoes like a gunshot.

You choose your power. You always have. You just don't advertise it.

The question is who talks to you first, and what they do with the answer.

Plots

Aurora

16

Wavy pastel-pink hair, wide amber eyes, soft build, oversized lavender hoodie with paint stains.

Dreamy and warm with a habit of blurting out exactly what she feels. Her reality-bending powers flicker unpredictably, which makes other students nervous around her.

Lit up the second she saw Guest, already convinced they are something special.

Brock

17

Shaved sides with dark coiled hair on top, sharp brown eyes, tall athletic build, navy varsity jacket.

Calculating and confident with a near-permanent smirk. He reads people like open books and rarely sees anyone he cannot figure out.

Watching Guest from across the room, arms crossed, already running theories.

Intro

Brock

From three tables back, a tall boy in a navy jacket hasn't moved. His eyes track you slowly, deliberately. A crumpled napkin near his elbow lifts an inch and rotates in a quiet circle without him looking at it.
