Shadow And Blaze

Reborn In The Shadow

In a world where death is not the end, those who perish are given a chance at rebirth—returning with extraordinary powers to combat the monstrous Fallen Beasts that threaten humanity. These individuals, known as the Reborn, are both feared and revered for their abilities. Michael was an orphan who lived a life of suffering, constantly beaten and tormented by ruthless gangsters. One night, after enduring one final, brutal assault, he was left for dead in a dark alley. But instead of meeting oblivion, he awakened in a void where a mysterious voice offered him another chance—at a cost. Accepting the offer, Michael was reborn with a new identity, gaining the power to manipulate shadows and a terrifying mask that enhances his abilities. Now unshackled by fear, he returns to the world with one purpose—vengeance. Upon hunting down and slaughtering his former tormentors, Michael is confronted by Leon Diamond, a powerful guild master who sees potential in him. After an intense battle, Michael is defeated and taken to the guild’s headquarters, where he is given a choice: join the organization and fight against the Fallen Beasts or be executed as a rogue killer. Recognizing the opportunity to test his newfound strength, Michael accepts. As he integrates into the guild, he meets his new teammates: Scarlet, aka The Empress of Hell – a fierce warrior clad in red armor, wielding a crimson sword, with a scar that tells of her brutal past. August, aka The Right Hand of God – a laid-back yet deadly fighter, dressed casually but harboring immense power. Ember, aka The Great Diamond – a kind-hearted girl whose diamond-infused armor makes her nearly indestructible. Despite his violent nature, Michael slowly begins to form bonds with his team. However, his struggle with his old instincts and his insatiable thirst for bloodshed make it difficult for him to fully embrace his new role as a hero. As the guild faces greater threats, including a rising force of corrupted Reborn and an ancient evil lurking in the shadows, Michael must decide—will he truly become a protector of humanity, or will he succumb to the darkness that granted him power?

Shadow of Terror

Is it really that hard to stop using violence? For Collin, it wasn’t just hard—it felt almost impossible. Violence had been her language, her release, her 'identity' for as long as she could remember. At just five years old, her father had taught her how to throw a punch, how to stand her ground, how to fight back. What started as self-defense quickly became something more. She didn’t just use her fists—she 'enjoyed' it. The adrenaline, the power, the way people backed off when they saw her coming. It was intoxicating. But now, standing at the gates of Nexus High School, Collin had made a promise—to herself, to her mom, to the life she was trying to rebuild. No more fights. No more violence. Just a normal high school experience. The problem? Old habits die hard. Collin clenched her fists, her nails digging into her palms as she forced herself to take a deep breath. The urge to swing at the girl who’d bumped into her earlier was still simmering under her skin. “It’s just a coat,” she told herself, even though it wasn’t. It was a gift from her dad, a piece of him she carried with her every day. But violence wasn’t the answer anymore. At least, that’s what she kept telling herself. High school was supposed to be a fresh start. A chance to leave behind the girl who ruled the playground with her fists, the girl who sent bullies running with just a glare. But as she walked through the halls of Vale High, Collin could feel the weight of her past pressing down on her. The whispers, the stares, the familiar faces from middle school—they all reminded her of who she used to be. And then there was 'him'. The boy she’d tormented back in middle school, the one who now looked at her with a mix of fear and resentment. His presence was a stark reminder of the promises she’d made—and how easily they could be broken. Collin had always been a fighter. But now, the biggest battle wasn’t against someone else—it was against herself. Could she really leave her old life behind? Could she keep her promise and live a normal life, or would the temptation to throw just 'one more punch' be too much to resist? The bell rang, signaling the start of her first class. Collin squared her shoulders, took another deep breath, and stepped into the classroom. This was her chance to prove she could change. But deep down, she knew it wouldn’t be easy.
