In a world protected by heroes, Y/N L/N appears to be an ordinary eighteen-year-old senior at Midtown High School, sharing classrooms with Peter Parker and Gwen Stacy. While Peter swings through New York as Spider-Man and Gwen fights crime as Ghost-Spider, no one suspects that one of their classmates is hiding a far greater secret. Y/N is a Pure-Blood Saiyan whose power surpasses imagination. Wielding the combined strength, techniques, and transformations of Goku, Vegeta, Gohan, and Broly, along with the limitless growth potential of Frieza and Jiren, he has become a warrior unlike any other. Known to the world only as Apex, he protects Earth from threats too powerful for ordinary heroes to face. As alien conquerors, cosmic gods, ancient evils, and multiversal enemies begin setting their sights on the Marvel Universe, Y/N must balance school life, friendships, and the responsibilities of being the strongest defender on the planet. With every battle, his power continues to evolve, proving that even the limits of a Saiyan can be broken. Because when Earth's greatest heroes fall... Apex rises.

Fourteen-year-old Hiccup Haddock has always been the small, bullied kid at school, with only his best friend Fishlegs by his side. But when his parents move the family from Berk to Los Angeles, Hiccup is forced to leave everything he knows behind. With a new home, a new school, a new friend, and a loyal German Shepherd puppy named Fury, Hiccup gets something he never thought he'd have: A Second Chance Well at least for the time being...

Six years ago, the Mayor's son vanished without a trace. Astrid Hofferson spent four of those years tearing the city apart looking for her best friend. Now, she just wants to punch him in the face. In a world where teenagers ignite with "Dragon Spirit Essences"-manifesting mythical elemental powers drawn from the spirits of the ancient dragons that roamed Midgard during the Age of Vikings-Astrid is a Deadly Nadder user ready to dominate her senior year at Berkian High with other powerhouses. She is ready to leave it all behind and join the agency to put her DSE to good use. But when Hiccup suddenly returns, he is playing the role of a harmless civilian who hasn't ignited. Or so he says. It is all a lie. Hiccup returns as an undercover Strike Class operative wielding the world's only known Night Fury DSE. Sent by his father to stop a weaponized frequency called the "Dragon Mind," Hiccup's mission is clear: find the source of the signal that turns DSE users into feral beasts and terminate the infected. Turns out...he failed. But it isn't "GAME OVER" yet.

Two lives. Four identities. One city on the brink of fire. In the neon-drenched streets of Berk City, the "Masks" are both saviors and fugitives. To the public, Night Fury and Deadly Nader are a lethal duo of vigilantes-survivors of a dark experiment with power running through their veins and high-tech nano-armor protecting their secrets. They trust no one but each other, never suspecting that their partner in the mask is the person they least expect. By day, Hyden is the school's invisible shadow. A nerd, a loner, and the "disappointing" son of the cold billionaire CEO Stoick Haddock. He hides his genius, his wealth, and his scars behind fake glasses and a stutter. By day, Astrid Hofferson is the golden girl of Berk Academy-fierce, popular, and untouchable. But behind the perfect exterior, her family is drowning in debt. When she's hired for a high-paying, top-secret job as the personal bodyguard for the Haddock heir, she expects a spoiled brat. Instead, she finds Hyden. As a corporate conspiracy begins to unravel and the shadows of their past return to claim them, Hyden and Astrid must navigate a dangerous game of cat and mouse. He's hiding a fortune; she's hiding a mission. Both are hiding the fact that when the sun goes down, they rule the skyline. In a city built on secrets, the deadliest thing you can do is fall in love.

High School student Hiccup is a bad boy, in with the wrong crowd and a pest to those around him. Astrid Hofferson is Class President, cheerleading Captain and most popular girl in school. But neither are what they seem: Astrid's popularity hides a determined but very insecure young woman battling against impossible expectations while Hiccup struggles in an abusive home he endures for the sake of his ailing mother. Both wear masks at school-but can they see behind the other's facade and help each other through? Modern AU, Hiccstrid.

Hiccup is a bad boy. Astrid is the school diva/nerd. An unusual friendship. When situations arise that make them more alike than they'd like to admit, their feelings for each other won't be the only thing stopping them from living their own lives. There will be EXPLICIT MATURE content that may trigger or offend, some as well as sensitive issues addressed and experienced by some characters. I apologise and warn you in advance.

But as the skies heat up, so does the tension between them because sometimes, the most powerful storms aren't the ones in the sky... they're the ones in your heart.
