Adrian sat cross-legged on the living room rug, his crayons spread across the floor in a messy rainbow. His little hand gripped a red crayon tightly as he focused on his masterpiece: a picture of his mom, dad, and himself standing in front of their apartment. He made sure to draw their apartment...

The primitive Earth, filled with towering trees and dangerous predators, was also host to the ancestors of humanity. The Homo erectus, the species that would evolve to become Homo sapiens in a million years, represented the pre-evolutionary forms of modern humans. One such tribe of wanderers...

AN: Its been a while since I have been here on this site. Anyway, I wanted to dip my finger into DC again, but this time do something I haven't done with it. It's not my usual grand epic stakes stories, but it doesn't mean it won't feel just as impactful for the characters themselves. I hope you...

So, let's talk about Batman. Batman is a character that is supposed to be just a normal guy with peak human physical abilities, but over the years he's acquired a number of pretty explicitly superhuman feats of things like strength and speed. So, if we assume this works because DC humans are...

Part 1: Death is not the End It was going to be okay. That's what you wanted to tell them... no what you needed to say. You wanted to reassure them that everything was fine, that the world wasn't falling apart, even as the edges of your vision blurred, and reality itself seemed to fray at the...

You know, this wasn't the first time I'd been chased by crooked cops. Gotham has a talent for recycling its villains, and the line between good guy and bad guy tends to blur like ink on wet paper. The only real difference this time was that I wasn't wearing a mask or tights. No Spoiler suit to...

"That was amazing!" You shouted, unable to contain the excitement that surged through me. Your parents laughed, their joy filling the cool Gotham air. You had just left the theater—The Mark of Zorro—a hero with a mask and a mission. You could still feel the thrill of the adventure pulsing in...

The Batman has vanished, and Arkham Asylum stands eerily empty. Without Gotham's protector, the city spirals into chaos, the GCPD struggles to maintain control, and crime is at an all-time high since the Wayne Murders. Watching Wayne Tower engulfed in flames from your apartment window, you can't...

The city screams. Gotham. A cesspit of crime and corruption. But tonight, something's different. The air crackles with an energy that wasn't there before. Wayne Manor; deep in his room, a child stirs. Eyes open with a snap, confusion etched over the face. "What… Where am I?" The voice that...

"Sorry about this. I'll try and be better next time." My voice was scratchy, rough from disuse. A bit embarrassing, but I haven't needed it in… months? Months sound about right. I've gotten too used to never needing to talk, but I'm looking forward to needing to again. There's a lot of...

Chapter 1 Bruce Wayne In an abandoned runway deep into the mountain ranges of the Hindu Kush, a private plane stood parked as a shabbily dressed man walked towards it, his clothes unsuited for the chilly air of the perilous mountains, yet the chill didn't seem to affect the man who smiled as a...

Gotham Noir Prologue It was cold outside, colder than usual. In the last few minutes traffic noises had begun to grow. A torrent of smoke and horns, howling escapes, claxons, and red lights. A cacophony of sights and sounds, of smells of smoke and oil, the lifeblood of the city pounding...

Part 1: Death is not the End It was going to be okay. That was what you wanted to say to them, to tell them that everything was going to be okay, before the world became blank, and the world began to drown in a hue of violent and… Velvet Blue. Your soul, if you could even call it such a...

Bruce's face was set in a tight-lipped frown as he surveyed the smoking slag heap that had been his medlab computer. Of course, he could have been watching a beautiful sunrise and still have the frown, a comment made by just about everyone who knew him, from Alfred to Zatanna. That didn't keep...

Joker's hideout The Clown Prince of Crime stormed into the room where he could hear Harley and Punchline having their scuffle. He threw the doors open to see his two molls about to tear each other apart. The black haired girl was about out punch Harley in the face and it looked like Harley was...

N/I don't have Young justice or any DC character, but I do have this fanfic, so thanks for reading. english is not my first language She was born on another planet. In krypton, to be exact. Named Faora Ul, in a Krypton military family. She knew she was in the DC universe, somehow she was...

The thing about heroes, was that they were flawed. There was no such thing as a perfect hero. Not even Superman. That ship had sailed before I was born. This fact was difficult to grasp and even more difficult to accept. I don't think I can yet accept it. The subway of Gotham was, relatively...

BROCKTON KNIGHT "Dare to Look…?" Arc "So much for my first night out…" Taylor groaned. The early days of April were always the coldest, especially at night. A gust flew past and brought a cold shudder down her spine. She wished she brought more than a simple fleece jacket and sweats over her...

In the state of Wisconsin lies the average sized town of Elmville, where they grow walnuts and boredom. In the center of Elmville is the gated community of Elysian Meadows for the town's upper middle-class residents (not that they need one, considering Elmville's extremely low crime rate). And...

H-huh? My bed was really cold, and hard. Wait…where are my blankets? "Wait a minute…" My eyes were glued together, and I could barely see more than the warm orange lights through my eyelids and the color red. But, as I shielded my eyes and gave them some time to adjust, I quickly came to a...

I woke up at around ten thirty in the morning, to the sound of my alarm and someone shouting in the apartment next to mine. Weighed down by last night's mistakes, alcohol-based and not, I crawled miserably out of my bed and under the shower for a quick scrub down. Through my apartment's thin...
