Twist

Jamal Carter was down on his luck. Broke, in debt, and on the verge of eviction, he needed a break. That's when his friend Deion offered him a ticket to an exclusive networking event. Little did Jamal know, this was just the beginning of a wild ride. He impressed the right people, including real estate mogul Leonard Marks, and soon found himself playing with the big boys. But success comes with a price. Jamal's rise to power attracted some dangerous enemies, including ruthless crime boss Vincent Morello. A silent war began, with sabotage, intimidation, and power moves being played out behind the scenes. Jamal refused to back down. He formed alliances, studied his enemies, and struck back with calculated moves. But just when he thought he'd won, he discovered a shocking truth: Morello was just a pawn in a much bigger game. The real power players were the Scorpion Syndicate, a shadowy organization that controlled the city's underworld. And Jamal had just inherited Morello's debts, including a $10 million payment owed to the Scorpions. With his back against the wall, Jamal was forced to make an impossible choice: sign with the Scorpions and submit to their control, or refuse and risk losing everything. But here's the twist: Deion, Jamal's best friend, had been working with the Scorpions all along. He'd orchestrated Jamal's rise to power, ensuring he was always one step ahead. Now, Jamal's fate hangs in the balance. Will he take the safe route and sign with the Scorpions, or will he risk everything to stay true to himself? The hustler's gamble has led him to this moment. But this time, the stakes are higher than ever.

Q-grade Specials, A-grade Specials, B-grade Specials, C-grade Specials, D-grade Specials and E-grade Specials. That's the order in which every Special in the academy had been ranked until Kastian shows up at a critical time of the school. After losing his parents in a ghastly car accident, Kastian had to move in with his Aunty who did nothing more than maltreat him and make him feel like he should have died in the accident too. However, Kastian's normal life takes an unexpected twist when he gets unreal abilities. Initially, he thinks he had gone mad but when things begin to get real, Kastian finds himself in the Academy for Specials. At first sight, the school is a perfect place for superhumans to grow their abilities away from the knowledge of ordinary humans while fighting bad guys from the shadows but the longer Kastian stays in the academy, he soon realizes that the downfall of the school had come. With the few Q-grade Specials the academy had ever known dead, the academy is nothing more than a playground for the biggest enemy to both mankind and Specials. It's almost impossible for him to control the prototype his parents left behind for him but when he finally gains control, he's merely an unstoppable force of nature. Kastian is the only hope of the school now; the only hope of the ordinary humans who had made his life a living hell. He doesn't know how long he can hold out until he loses control of his abilities again, but he knows that he's going to live up to his parents' legacy as the best Special the academy had ever known; the best Superhero the world would ever see.
