At Nightingale Academy, where heroes are forged based on the destructive power of their abilities, Troy stands at the bottom of the hierarchy. His gift? Bubbles, harmless, fragile, and utterly unremarkable in a world where strength defines worth. Mocked by peers and ignored by the system, he struggles to prove that power isn’t just about destruction.

But when a single night shatters his perception of what it means to be a hero, Troy is forced to confront the dark truth behind the heroes he once admired. In a world where justice is painted in shades of gray, he must carve his own path, one where power is redefined, and saving lives means more than just winning battles.

Even if it means standing alone.

Jackson smirked. “A scary story, dude. You got one?” 


Carter cleared his throat, trying to shake the daze Alexa had put him in. He thought for a second, then leaned forward, his face half-lit by the flames. “Alright. Ever hear the story of the Hollow Man?” 


Miguel raised an eyebrow. “Oh, this should be good.”
