An Unexpected Visitor
Although the syringe and vial Ben had provided weren't from his lab, Mark couldn't help but feel that all of this was connected somehow. But the more he thought about it, the less he understood. It felt as though a portion of his memory was missing, and no matter how hard he tried to remember, he just couldn't quench the restlessness in his mind. "I've examined the liquid, definitely a power boosting serum, and it's likely the cause of the transformation." Mark revealed to the heroes gathered in his laboratory. "Is there any way you can turn them back? Any possible cure?" Charles inquired, eager and anxious. With a disappointed look on his face, Mark shook his head to answer. "Unfortunately not, but I can try. It will take some time, but it's not impossible. If we could find the root of all this, and get my hands on the serum's formula, it would be a lot easier for me to create a cure." "Do you have any suspicions of who it might be?" Hector asked abstractly while hoping for a pos

I'm On Your Side
"Principal Hugo? What are you doing here, and what did you do to my friends?" Michael asked with a shocked, yet equally afraid expression on his face. "I just knocked them out, they'll be fine. Secondly, I came to pay my best student a visit, is that a bad thing?" The older man answered with a smile, one that Michael didn't find soothing at all. He had a lot a things going through his mind at the moment, but the question that bugged him the most was—"How did you get in here?" Principal Hugo read the boy's mind. He expected the question, but Michael was not ready for his principal's reply. With a hand stretched out in the air, Hugo tore a hole through space, and at the same time, another hole appeared behind the stunned boy. From the portal he had just created, Hugo walked through, and appeared right behind the unsuspecting boy. "How—? You're awakened?!" Michael stammered with visible shock. "Yes I am, Michael Black." Hugo answered as he steadily studied the boy's appearance. His p

Work
Logan led his partner through a dark alleyway. The chaos that the deviant's had caused had left the city in a cold state for a week now, and although no more deviants had been sighted for a week, things weren't exactly as they used to be. The public had begun an open rebellion against the awakened individuals, and were rioting for them to leave the country. No one knew how, but an article had leaked out to the public giving detailed information on the deviants and how they functioned. It exposed the secret that only awakened people could become deviants, and ever since then, the public and the government had taken advantage of the information to create hostility in the entire country. "What exactly did you say these people are?" Hugo questioned for the umpteenpth time as he followed Logan into an old abandoned house. He wouldn't partner up with Logan for an assassination work on a normal day, but thanks to the commotion caused by the deviants, schools had been on lockdown, and incom

Partners?
The activities in the shadow vanguard headquarters were yet to pick up pace since the deviant incident, and the events had been canceled until the heroes decoded otherwise. Charles visited a lot more often these days, and he never left without having a word with Michael Black. However, today was different, he was taking the boy out of the headquarters, and it was for good reason. Just recently, while some heroes were out investigating the deviants and supersoldiers, they had come across an interesting piece, a human hand, torched and almost burnt to a crisp. The hand had been taken to Mark who had run a series of tests on it, and after two days of intensive tests and examination, Mark had finally come to a conclusion that the arm belonged to Daniel Hardwood. "Y..you're joking right?!" Michael trembled after he had received the news. He never really believed that his friend died on the day they'd been attacked. Now that he knew a little bit more about what was going on in his life, h

Suspicions and Visitations
From time to time Cedric would glance over at Michael's desk. Ever since the night of the inter guild contests, he couldn't help but feel that something was up with his friend somehow. At first he brushed it off as disappointment for not finishing the event, but now he was certain it was something else. Subsequently, Michael always seemed to excuse himself, and Cedric always watched him climb to the rooftops. He would spend five to ten minutes there regularly, and Cedric had begun to think that Michael could be secretly seeing a lover. That had been his first suspicion, but that hadn't been the case. There were no love letters, no chocolates, and even lately he had crossed his boundaries and had gone through Michael's messages. He didn't text a lot of people, and he didn't find anyone who could possibly be Michael's love interest. "Focus, Cedric!" The teacher instructed firmly. At the moment they were being taught how to perform simple rescue operations, and everybody absolutely loa

Internship..
Due to the chaos that had been brought by the deviants and hostile activities of the general public, General Allen had issued for all admitted students in any hero institution of all kinds to begin internship. The demand for heroes had become high, in and out of Geo. People were awakening in large numbers daily, and most of the newly awakened individuals had taken to the streets to show off their newly gained abilities. The pro heroes were already distracted with fixing the damages and investigating issues concerning deviants and supersoldiers, there was no time to waste on mediocre villains these days. "You're going to your family's agency, I suppose. It's a shame you won't be joining us." Cedric said to Damian who was busy with getting his things in order. Thanks to Michael, Charles McRae had agreed to take three students under his care, and those students were Michael, Cedric and Frank. Michael and Cedric weren't exactly onboard with the inclusion of a bully in their team, but at

What doesn't he have?
[Beast defeated! +50xp][Beast defeated! +50xp][Beast defeated! +50xp]Just before Michael landed the last blow on his last opponent, he took a few seconds to examine how well Frank was doing. He wasn't exactly struggling, but he wasn't having a field day either. He had already managed to put down two wolves out of the five, but the remaining three were making him work a little bit harder. Letting out a sigh of exhaustion, Micheal balled his hand into a fist and pummeled the last of his adversary into the ground. [Beast defeated! +50xp][Host has leveled up!][Hero Level: 7][Exp: 30/500][HP: 92/100][Strength: 10/11][Agility: 13][EP: 350/350][You have three stat points available!][Passive Ability Heal is Active!]With a wave of his hand, he immediately dismissed the flurry of messages and immediately rushed forward to help Frank out. Using his superior speed, he managed to ambush and restrain one of the wolves, giving Frank enough time to focus on the remaining two. Michael d
