Volume 2: Chapter 212 — Dark Clouds

Dan debated chasing after the fleeing vigilante. Dragging her to safety had been a snap decision made in the moment. He couldn't stand the thought of the young woman getting splattered across the a...

Volume 2: Chapter 211 — Teenagers

Dan did not teleport directly into the alley with the dangerous vigilante and injured vigilante hunters. Instead, he appeared on the roof above, crouched low in case the lunatic below had partners....

Volume 2: Chapter 210 — Confrontation

Dan briefly considered calling in a bomb threat to the school. Then, realizing how insane that was, he considered dropping a threatening letter on the principal's desk. Finally, he turned on his br...

Brief Update

Hurricane Beryl rolled into town. I've got no power and my house flooded. Next chapter will probably be a bit delayed while I deal with this mess. Thanks for your understanding.

Her name was Micaela Sanchez. She was sixteen years old, mixed Chinese and Hispanic ancestry, and her father had passed away when she was seven. Her uncle on her mother's side had occasionally help...

Volume 2: Chapter 208 — Geometry

In retrospect, Dan had no idea how graphs work. His idea was simple in both meanings of the word, in that it was not complicated to execute, and it was apparently thought up by a simpleton. This is...

Taking a two month break

Hello everyone. Let me start this off by saying I'm sorry for the poor rate and quality of chapters the past few months. Honestly this whole arc of the story has been like banging my head against a...

Chapter 207 — Sausages

It was like watching sausages get made, Dan thought. He wondered if Vigi-Buster fans knew how hollow and fake their favorite show really was. The security supervisor didn't seem to mind, but he was...

Volume 2: Chapter 206 — Fanboy

Unfortunately, the surveillance cameras of other transit stations were only accessible onsite. Dan and Carver were forced to head off towards the vigilante's predicted final stop, some twelve miles...

Volume 2: Chapter 205 — Subway Blitz

Gaining access to the Metro cameras wasn't quite as easy as Dan had hoped. Carver's influence as an FBI agent wasn't unlimited, and as she was not officially working on the D.C. vigilante, pulling ...

Volume 2: Chapter 204 — Reality TV

Dan was often confronted by the boundless stupidity of human nature, but this might be a new low. The alley where the D.C. vigilante had been seen was fenced off with orange construction cones, thr...

Volume 2: Chapter 203 — Sleuthing

The D.C. Vigilante was being hunted by the police department, the FBI, possibly Anastasia's mooks, and Dan himself. It should've come as no surprise, then, when a random civilian was the first pers...

Volume 2: Chapter 202 — Favors and Influence

It took Dan a few days to arrange a meeting with Emily Carver, the federal agent who he'd helped raid the Evo Church. The real chore had been tracking her down. Unlike Jeremy Rawls, he had not swap...

Volume 2: Chapter 200 — Biceps and Baby Oil

The introduction was a fairly simple one. There was workout equipment spread out all across a gymnasium floor; every machine for every muscle group imaginable was brought in from Gregoir and Dan's ...

It was late in the day. Gregoir's trainees were cooling off after a hard workout, while Abby and Connor were casually throwing punches at each other in the center of the ring. Dan idly watched them...
