> SUPERHEROES
A great many moons have past since the story of the superhero was told. The mind seems to have forgotten of such tales of greatness and heroism. But why? Why would the stories of men in tight suits and capes fade and vanish from the world? Despite being 2337, it doesn't seem likely that crime has been completely conquered because conquering crime will never cease to happen. In a world with mortals, guns, and independence, violence, hate, and injustice will always survive. So why - why would the world rid of superheroes? Simple… C.O.R.E.
C.O.R.E. (Criminal Organization Removal Embassy) has been thwarting criminal acts and gangs since the beginning of the 2300s. The most advanced minds of the century are working to predict crimes before crimes even happen. Those who even think up a crime are immediately sentenced to death. Such a harsh punishment for just a thought? Yes, it sounds cruel, but in this world, punishment by death is the only way to rule the people and prevent heinous acts.
Most people don't seem to mind the world they live in. Science is at an all time high as is technology. Cars can fly and people can link minds to communicate. Clothing can be changed with just the blink of an eye. Touch screens are far more advanced then ever before; wearing specialized gloves you can touch and alter the air before you, making a magical screen that displays what you wish. The inventions of Stark Industries is a thing of the past. His legacy died ages ago (in 2180 to be exact) and a new creator stepped up. Although, this company did not fair well with the people and eventually vanished in 2290. Forever revolutionizing the world, it was Kaine Industries that shaped the world people now live in. Everything you see , touch, and own was probably designed and affected by Kaine Industries.
It was actually Mr. Jackson Kaine himself that created C.O.R.E. Although, when he created it during its youthful years, C.O.R.E. was simply a military company that guarded poverty stricken areas. As the company grew, so did C.O.R.E. Today, C.O.R.E. now stands at the heart of everything, watching, protecting, and saving the city from the hands of injustice and evil.
Only, despite being able to foresee crimes before they happen, C.O.R.E. has a serious flaw. A flaw so big that, if leaked into the wrong hands, could turn the world toward chaos and warfare, two terms that haven't been heard in over two centuries.
A band of men have discovered a way to block C.O.R.E. from reading their thoughts and, with the help of some of the more sketchy looking men on the planet, they seek to hack into C.O.R.E. and steal the hardware. Rumor has it, if you can steal the hardware that runs C.O.R.E. you can rule the world.
Ruling the world. Doesn't that sound a bit… cliche? What if I were to tell you that ruling the world also meant reigning control over the thoughts and actions of all those that live on this planet? And what if I said you could control the planet - altering its weather, terrain, and shape? As you can see, C.O.R.E. is too strong and too dangerous, especially in the hands of those with sinister intensions.
A single scientist by the name of John Roberts has discovered this troubling issue. He fears that C.O.R.E. will be used for injustice and, being a rip old man, John is unable to do anything. Turning to his computer, Jenny, he prays that she can compile a list of humans who are capable of undergoing a dynamic physical and emotional change. A change so great that C.O.R.E. will seek them out and try to put them to an early grave.
John, on his death bed, formed a program called H.E.R.O. in a last ditch effort to save the world from impending doom. With the faint click of a button, Jenny sent invitations and messages to those humans that John hand picked to become a part of H.E.R.O. The message read as follows:Now, obviously, most people dismissed this message as junk, but a select few decided it was the chance of a lifetime. Jumping at the opportunity, these individuals have no idea what they are about to join. They are joining a cause that could, potentially, save the world. They are, without a doubt, going to revive the stories of the past, the stories of the 2000s. The stories of… superheroes.
Dead Chosen One,
You have been selected to undergo a series of test, altercations, and rigorous training exercises. Should you not want to change yourself, I suggest you just ignore this message. But, should you want to become something more - something greater - you must go to Fourth Park Avenue Greenwood Circle. There you will meet an android that will explain everything.
Sincerely,
Doctor John Roberts

Obviously, I won't make this if I get enough interest on here. But yeah, this is the idea I have going on another site and it's pretty awesome so far.
