* ''[[Downfall (fanfic)|Downfall]]'' is chock full of (relatively) nice, non-combative people. When they decide to get busy it tends to get ugly, mostly because the non-aggressive characters are usually the more powerful ones.
* ''[[Stray (Fanfic)|Stray]]'' contains an incident where this trope is applied to Otacon, of all people. It turns out that the quirky, tenderhearted, [[Non-Action Guy|non-action]] anime geek can be dangerously resourceful when backed into a corner.
* In the ''[[Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers (animation)|Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers]]'' fan comic ''[[Of Mice and Mayhem]]'' {{spoiler|Gadget, usually the epitome of kindness, attacks the men who were after her when Chip gets shot trying to protect her}}.
* The [[Abridged Series|portrayal]] of [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|Fluttershy]] as seen so far{{when}} in [[Friendship Is Witchcraft]].
* Latias from ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2053520/5/Latias_Journey Latias' Journey]''. She's depicted mostly as a gentle, somewhat timid and fearful Pokemon. That changes ''big time'' in Chapter 5. {{spoiler|After watching a bunch of evil bird Pokemon butcher a bunch of baby Flying and Bug types in Wing Fortress, she goes completely apeshit. The end result: a bunch of enemy Flying types lying in pieces in nursery, followed by a Psychic attack so powerful that it could best be described as a [[Fantastic Nuke|psychic nuke]]. ''That'' is followed up with an even more ''obscenely'' powerful Fire (or Dragon) attack that completely ''obliterates'' Wing Fortress and a large piece of the surrounding forest.}} It is ''utterly terrifying'' but at the same time ''[[Precision F-Strike|fucking]]'' [[Crowning Moment of Awesome|awesome]].
** [[{{spoiler: |[[Nice Job Breaking It, Hero|And killing the rest of the Pokemon she was trying to save.]]}}
* In the ''Yu-Gi-Oh! GX Spirit Caller'' fan fiction, the protagonist Kaigen Kou is usually calm and slow to anger, but bullying or mistreating his friends releases a terribly ruthless and somewhat psychotic side. It's a bad idea to bully his friends, but sully the reputation of the woman he loves and you'll find yourself beaten half to death and inches away from being LIT ON FIRE.
* [https://web.archive.org/web/20120413141718/http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3547876/1/When_Summoning_Please_Watch_The_Wording This] [[Crossover]] fic between ''[[Good Omens]]'' and ''[[Supernatural (TV series)|Supernatural]]''. [[Our Angels Are Different|Aziraphale]] unleashes some truly [[Crowning Moment of Awesome|righteous fury]] on some wannabe Satanists who have crossed the [[Moral Event Horizon]] to summon the wrong yellow-eyed demon.
{{quote|''Aziraphale's expression was like thunder. "Come to me, my child," he said, his tone as cutting as diamonds. "And I will [[Go Mad Fromfrom the Revelation|show you a true wonder of a miracle!]]"''}}
* In ''[[Fill the Moon]]'', when Demyx happens to witness {{spoiler|Xigbar being slightly wounded by Captain Barbossa,}} that minor injury towards his [[Ho Yay|lover]] is enough to get him to snap, summoning an entire hurricane and capsizing the Black Pearl, along with drowning around one hundred Heartless and keeping the entire pirate crew at bay with the power of his magic. Don't piss off Demmy-kins.
** Another nice, cute, sweet [[The Messiah|messiah]] you don't piss off? The little girl called Senayax. Once you lay a finger on her family or her pet Heartless, you are in for an absolute world of hurt. {{spoiler|Hollowmoon, the [[Eldritch Abomination]] that lives inside her, and Kingdom Hearts itself? They found that fact out the hard way.}}
* Granted, Eija Satomi from ''[[Divine Blood]]'' isn't adverse to dealing lethal force when necessary, but she is still extremely friendly, patient, kind and generally feels remorse when she is forced to kill. However, after the ghost of her [[Homosexual Reproduction|second]], [[Half-Human Hybrid|divine]] [[Child by Rape|mother]] killed the first blood-related adult other than her own mother, apparently out of no reason than spite, Eija's response was violent enough to catch the attention of an ongoing psychic battle between the [[The Virus|soul(s)]] of a [[Humanoid Abomination]] and several Gods and Demons. The [[Humanoid Abomination]] ran away while almost everybody else watched Eija seal the ghost by drowning it in psychic representations of blood.
** Later, [[Yamato Nadeshiko]] Kasumi ''kills a banquet hall full of rebel gods'' using what appears to be ''blood magic-based poison'', given that it was triggered by ''stabbing her own hand'', which caused them to sudddenlysuddenly keel over one by one.
* Uriel in ''[[Manchester Lost (Fanfic)|Manchester Lost]]''. One moment he is falling off the edge of heaven (which Raphael notes has no edges) and forgetting how to fly, as well as being a general [[Cloudcuckoolander]] the next {{spoiler|he is throwing the 3rd most powerful demon in hell through several buildings and the remains are sizzling and in bits. Then, after a long battle, he nearly succeeds in ripping Lucifer in half, and throws him all over the place.}}
** Aziraphale in the same fic. After he {{spoiler|briefly falls}}, he gets so angry, that even Beelzebub Lucifer's second is frightened of him. Unfortunately he is distracted. {{spoiler|Later however, he [[Incendiary Exponent|sets himself on fire with holy flames]], leading to [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]] when he dispatches Beelzebub in a [[Taking You with Me]] moment.}}
* The dwarven noble protagonist in ''[[Dragon Age: The Crown of Thorns]]'' expected Faren, the DC, to hate him when he revealed to him that {{spoiler|he always knew Rica was Bhelen's concubine and had never said anything.}} Faren doesn't ''really'' end up hating him but, since he hates Bhelen's guts (among other, deeper reasons), he still {{spoiler|delivers a [[No-Holds-Barred Beatdown]] to the prince, leaving him with a broken jaw and a couple of snapped ribs for good measure, plus a swollen eye.}} At least Faren ends up regretting it, after getting a [[What the Hell, Hero?]] speech from Kallian Tabirs, the city elf warden and {{spoiler|his love interest,}} plus finding out just why the guy withheld that from him. He only really realizes just how badly he flipped out after remembering that {{spoiler|the DN has a particular problem that prevents healing magic from working on him, so Wynne can't just snap her fingers and make the horrid pain go away.}}
* ''[[DC Nation]]'' - Dr. Light had unleashed a toxin that was killing all prepubescent children in North America as revenge for his [[Mind Rape]] at the hands of the JLA, just to make sure that the heroes' children suffered. He captured Sue Dibny to "finish what he started." A JLA strike team was sent after him. Light had them all on the ropes and was dangerously close to killing the Elongated Man when [http://community.livejournal.com/jla_watchtower/1035178.html?thread=29418666# Sue broke out of her holding cell], and [[Crowning Moment of Awesome|armed with Hal Jordan's ring, proceeded to open up a literal can of whoop-ass]] on him while cussing him out in English and Yiddish.
** Nationverse actually loves this Trope. Hypertime elemental (and [[Cloudcuckoolander]]) Shift is normally pretty laid back. When Shift's zombie grandfather almost killed him (during Shift and Miss Martian's first date date), Miss Martian morphed into her giant, scary white martian form and tore the zombie to little pieces. When the zombie grandpa got better moments later, Shift snapped and stranded him in a dead alternate Hypertime after beating him up at superspeed. He thought to himself (in his normal fragmented manner), after the blur of his own movements, "Tastes terrible. Zombies taste like old Slim Jims. Makes sense. Need mouthwash after this." ''The nice one bit off a chunk of his undead grandfather.''
** Another example is Fauna's "freak out" stage. Fauna is a sweet -natured, [[Technical Pacifist]] [[Granola Girl]] with abilities (she'll never call them ''powers'') close to Beast Boy's. Push her to the point where her shapeshifting snaps her brain, and she will come at you with everything, including ''cobra venom.''
* In ''[[Dumbledore's Army and the Year of Darkness|Dumbledores Army and The Year of Darkness]]'', Dennis Creevey is one of the sweetest, nicest boys you could ask for... until the Death Eaters finally push him too far. "[[Crowning Moment of Awesome|AVADA KEDAVRA YOU SON OF A BITCH!]]"
* In ''[[The Man qithWith No Name (fanfic)|The Man With No Name]]'', the villain utterly fails to do this in regards to [[Doctor Who|the Doctor]].
{{quote|'''The Doctor:''' Do that and you will end your days screaming in the deep places of my mind.
'''Big Bad:''' Y-you wouldn't do that! You can't!
Line 27:
'''The Doctor:''' Ah, yes, that argument. Heard that one before. And you know me so well, do you? You called me a monster not long ago. But now–ah, now you plead for the Doctor, the compassionate, merciful, pacifist Doctor. }}
* ''[[Rise of the Galeforces]]'' gives us Sarah Squall, who at first glance looks and acts like a fun person to be around. But as various foes can attest to, she is in fact a [[Cute Bruiser]] who can toss friggin' ''[[Everything's Better with Dinosaurs|dinosaurs]]'' around like ragdolls. [[I Believe I Can Fly|And fly.]] Well, she '''IS''' [[The Incredibles|Stratogale]] after all...
** It's probably not a good idea to mess with the rest of her family, either. Sarah's dad [[Making a Splash|can drown you with a cupful of water]] and [[The Beast Master|sic sea creatures on you]], while her mom is a [[Gravity Master]] who can suck you into a black hole in [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic/Memes|ten seconds flat.]] Her uncle is [[Dumb Muscle|a true dunderhead]], but he can still kick your ass with [[Elemental Powers|either]] [[Shock and Awe|lightning,]] [[Blow You Away|wind,]] [[Making a Splash|water,]] [[An Ice Person|or ice,]] whatever comes to mind first. Oh, and [[Author Avatar|Terror]][[Opposite SexGender Clone|dactyl]]? Suffice it to say that his name pretty much [[A Worldwide Punomenon|speaks]] [[One-Winged Angel|for]] [[Prehistoric Monster|it]][[Giant Flyer|self.]]
** And don't start on the OTHER''other'' major family, either. See the [[Beware the Nice Ones/Western Animation|Western Animation]] section for more details on the Parrs themselves.
* Fluttershy in the ''[[Pony POV Series]]'', as can be expected. {{spoiler|Taken to logical conclusion when she ''snaps'' completely, getting corrupted in the same way as Princess Luna was and turning into the second [[Big Bad]], Princess Gaia/Nightmare Whisper.}}
* The ''[[Heroes (TV series)|Heroes]]'' [[Dark Fic]] ''[[Unmade]]'' gives us this in an instance of intense [[Psychological Horror]] when [[Emo]] [[Nice Guy]] Peter Petrelli ([[Bullying a Dragon|who also just happens to be a]] [[Person of Mass Destruction]]) {{spoiler|goes on a [[Roaring Rampage of Revenge]] through Primatech [[Being Tortured Makes You Evil|after being tortured]] [[Despair Event Horizon|to the breaking point]] [[Stockholm Syndrome|stopping only to free his new BFF]] [[Serial Killer|Sylar.]] They [[Leave No Survivors]].}}
* In any ''[[Blinky Bill|Adventures Of Blinky Bill]]'' fanfics written by Canzet Yote, it is NOT a good idea to piss off [[Shrinking Violet|Shifty]] [[Precious Puppy|Dingo]] or [[The Heart|Nutsy.]]
* [[Kyon: Big Damn Hero|Kyon]] doesn't go looking for trouble. He really doesn't. But then someone goes after his [[Nakama]], and he alternately beats them to a bloody pulp or dangles them out a window. And now he has {{spoiler|[[Beam Spam|the ability]] [[Kill Sat|to wipe out]] [[Morph Weapon|most of a town]] [[Wave Motion Gun|in one shot]]}}.
* [[New Dawn (Darth Wiki)|Matthew Streika.]] Definitely one of the nicest, most decent people in a book full of things trying their very hardest to kill almost everything else, and is trying his best to make sure said dangerous things stay well away from his home town. All he really wants is to make sure innocents don't get involved, and protect his friends. He does not go looking for trouble. That said, do not mess with Matthew. Because when you manage to get him into a fighting situation, he is utterly ruthless and ferocious in a fight, not even minding his own pain until all hostile forces are either running with their tails between their legs or dead.
* Uzumaki Naruto in [[White Rain]] is usually a happy, friendly, and goofy Hokage. {{spoiler|When he stops being happy, friendly, and goofy, property values in Kusagakure drop in a hurry.}}
* In ''[[Princess Celestia Hates Tea]]'', Celestia shows exactly why she is a [[Physical God|Physical Goddess]] when wild accusations of being an imposterimpostor result in her entire staff, the Elements of Harmony, and her own sister trying to exorcizeexorcise her. [[Serious Business|And the whole fiasco was over Celestia lying about liking tea to spare her sister's feelings.]]
* ''[https://www.wattpad.com/story/132307011-in-the-dark In The Dark]'' has Emma finally being able to make process with Melanie after the trauma went through (bus accident, kidnapping, and assault). However, in Chapter 38, {{spoiler| Melanie is rushed to the hospital}} After being pushed out of the way and seeing Melanie's condition worsening, {{spoiler| resulting in a panic attack}} , [[Spice Girls| Emma]] starts to getting annoyed. Luckily, things calms down after awhile. Yet, as the trial against her attacker, Melanie starts to suffer a breakdown resulting in a hospital. By chapter 47 and 48, Emma pretty much SNAPS. This catches Victoria off-guard, who tries to calm Emma, who was giving [[The Reason You Suck Speech]] about the treatments Melanie was being given.
* [[Blink-182]] pretty much discovers in Episode 2 of ''[[Celebrity Deathmatch]]'' Fic, ''[https://www.wattpad.com/story/173566505-final-stand-of-death Final Stand of Death]'', that it pays to never upset Spur, as she still has the same personailty as she did when she was {{Spoiler|Emma}}, along with her karate skills. Redd points this out rather quickly when she shows up to help Spur, only to see the damages the latter had done. The rest of the Fusion Gundam were also surprised, just as soon they arrived.
* ''[[The Secret Return of Alex Mack]]'': This is how the members of the Superpowers Research Initiative in general think of Alex -- a sweet, innocent kid who you'd think would run home crying if you were mean to her, but who is actually an unstoppable force of nature -- and who doesn't quite realize just how impressive she is. Alex is, of course, Terawatt, her world's equivalent to [[Superman]].
