Nemesis is a Worm fanfiction by BeaconHill. The fic features Taylor Hebert having the Nemesis contract with Emma Barnes, using the identity of "Bumblebee" to be a joke villain while fulfilling the terms of her contract. It is famed for spawning many omakes in the SpaceBattles and Sufficient Velocity threads. All the omakes combined are many times longer than the fic itself. As of April 2025, the SpaceBattles thread has 300 omakes, while the SV thread has over 100, many of which are different from those on SpaceBattles.
The fic started in her "Morning Worm" snippet thread on April 15, 2019, but was posted to its own thread on April 28, 2019.
Summary
It was June 2011, and Emma Barnes was the queen bee of her high school, mercilessly tormenting her lessers. But it wasn't enough. She wanted powers. She wanted to be a superhero, lording over not just her school but her city. When her whole family died in a car crash, she thought it was her chance. But she didn't trigger, and when her friend Sophia – AKA the superhero Shadow Stalker – told her that she probably couldn't, she flipped out. They fought. And then she found Cauldron, offering superpowers in a little silver vial. She jumped at the chance. But she had a little money left over after buying her vial, and she knew exactly what to do with it.
It was June 2011, and Taylor Hebert was out of hope. After two years of bullying, she knew she had no way out, no hope of escape, not with her grades or her family's poor finances. Until one day, a portal appeared in her home, bearing a strange woman with an offer: powers. But the woman asked for one thing in exchange: she would have to be a supervillain, the nemesis to her worst enemy's superhero alter ego. And she wasn't supposed to win, not with her weak vial and the rules of the program stacked against her. But that wasn't going to stop her from trying for her one last chance.
