Introduction
Years ago, in the closing months of the Second World War, a group of American Scientists were tasked by their Government to create a weapon that could help them in their fight against their Nazi and Japanese Opposition. For many days and weeks this group toiled and worked, struggled and strived, creating many different serums, elixirs and potions that they thought would create what the Government wanted. Unfortunately, most of their experimental serums and weapons failed to work, and left many patients disfigured and emotionally distraught. Many times they had tried, and many times this group of eager Scientists had failed in their mission, but they were determined to not give up and finally create an answer to the Nazi Problem.
But when it seemed like they had ran out of luck, and that their mission was well and truly done, one brilliant Scientist had an idea. He was a keen Astrologer, and loved to watch the midnight sky and the twinkling stars at night. He proposed that they could send unmanned, robotic machines into the stars, to see whether or not they could find something, or someone, that could help them achieve their goals.
The other Scientists, with no other option left open to them, agreed to this particular solution and began to send unmanned crafts with cameras into the solar system, in an effort to find something that could possibly help them. However, like so many of their other tries and experiments, many of the crafts and probes crashed into planets and only gave us a deeper look into the solar system. When it seemed like their mission was doomed to fail and that they had no other things to try, the Scientists decided to give it one last shot and sent one last probe into space...
...And found something, something that they had never seen the likes of before.
They had discovered a giant orbital station above the planet of Mars, made of a metal that none of the Scientists had ever seen before. They began to intensely study the station from the pictures and the videos that they probe had sent back to them, but by the time they were able to piece together that this orbital station was of alien design, the Second World War was over, and the Nazis had been defeated, rendering the Scientists' mission null and void. But these Scientists were determined to not give up, and pleaded with their Government to give them more time. Sadly for them, the Government wished to focus their research into more Earth-based endeavors, and had officially stopped the funding of the Scientists' project.
Many years passed, and although the Scientists kept their eye on the space station, they did not have the funding to send a team into space. But when the Americans first sent Neil Armstrong and his team to the moon, they once approached this now-older team of Scientists about once again trying to find this station. After many more months of work preparing for the journey, the team of Scientists that discovered the station were finally sent there.
After carefully examining every nook and cranny of this station, the Scientists discovered that t it was strategic post for whatever alien race had created it, and it was there for the sole purpose of science and discovering the remaining secrets of the universe. Through the work that they discovered on this station, the scientists figured out that whatever alien race had created this station had been watching the Human race for some time and had figured out how to activate unused parts of a human's brain and body to allow the human race to become something greater than they had ever been before, to unlock the next step inh human evolution.
However, although their experiments were successful in creating a strain of mutagen that would create humans with extraordinary abilities, these aliens abandoned their experiment for reasons which were not clear. The Scientists were overjoyed, believing this is exactly what they wanted to find all those years ago, during the war. They took samples and tubes of the mutagen and returned back to Earth, where they were greeted with open arms and congratulations by the American Government.
With the mutagen now in the hands of the American Government, they began to test this strange new DNA strain on test subjects, namely humans who had volunteered themselves to become better. They had locked them in prison-like cells of horrific quality in an attempt for them to lose their humanity, but some still kept clinging on. Many were injected and tested, indoctrinated and brainwashed into become perfect soldiers, but some withstood it.
One of the Scientists who first discovered the mutagen had a change of heart, and being horrified by the conditions the test subjects were put through, he managed to turn a strain of the mutagen into a gas-like, aerosol form and release it into the air through the ventilation systems, before he was subsequently captured and killed for high treason and terrorism. However, the Government agents were too late to stop the gas-form mutagen, which began to bond with particles in the air and were inhaled by the human populace.
Across the globe, many men and women started to feel different, more alive. Their powers soon began to develop deep inside them and many were unable to control them, thus causing uncontrollable chaos on many different scales. Not everyone changed, but those that did become enhanced with abilities hidden deep within their DNA. With these new powers, many of the men and women resorted to organized crime to try and make themselves better, using hidden monikers, costumes and codenames to disguise their real identities from the Government.
However, a single test subject was released from his cell by a single mistake by a guard, who was punished for it by the mutant's new powers. He subsequently released all of the test subjects from their cells, and escaped into outer New York. Him, along with many others, are now parading around as so-called 'superheroes' and trying to control and imprison the freaks of nature and the criminals changed by the mutagen.
With organized crime running rampant across the world, will Earth's Greatest Heroes combine and take the fight against it's Villains?

The Story So Far... Write a Post » as written by 8 authors
Somewhere...somewhere out there in the dark, infinite space there is a special realm, unseen by all, the Ivory Tower of the Master of the Arcane Arts, Doctor Infinity. Infinity garbed in his mystical robes, looked down into a pool of the most clearest and purest water one could ever hope to find. It was the mystical Augury, an object of great magical power that can scry the known universe revealing to the user, omens of the future. And the future looked bleak. A great evil is returning to throw the very Universe into a state of chaos. The Eternal One, has returned, and it seems his sights maybe set on the planet, his home, of Earth. Geoffrey was worried about the current state of his home that he has not seen for hundreds of years now. So much has changed in the span of time that he has been away, helping other races of beings against the many evils that fester within this great existence of theirs.
It wasn't before long that the image of Earth being assaulted by the Eternal One was erased and replaced with an image of the Council of the First. It was difficult to tell what exactly they looked like, having wearing hooded robes that concealed their entire bodies. He did know that they were much larger than a human and are definitely far older and wiser. He listened as the Council voiced their concerns about the return of the Eternal One. A concern that the Doctor shares as well. They commanded he meet them in their Chamber as the Doctor prepared to teleport himself directly before them. Soon he left the comforts of his sanctuary as he entered the round chamber room of the Council of the First. "This must be gravely serious, if the Council feels that I must meet them for a physical audience." Infinity spoke.
"Tis true, Master of the Infinity Soul, the Mana Force has spoken to us, as it has surely spoken with you." Spoke a Councilman. "The Mana speaks of a true threat to the Universe, a being we have long since philosophized to be the living embodiment of Pride, the Eternal One." Spoke the Head of the Council. There was a hush amongst the council as even Doctor Infinity tensed up. It has long since been the duties of the Hosts of the Infinity Soul to defeat the Seven Sins from the Universe. Yet, to go as far as to suggest one being can so perfectly encompass the Sin of Pride, then his power must be that of legends. "As the Council of the First, it is our solemn duty to create a Universe of peace, but in order to do so the very Avatars of Evil must be cleansed from existence." The Head spoke. "Of course, I do understand, but members of the Council if I may question, have we truly found one of the Avatars of the Seven Sins?" Doctor Infinity spoke aloud. The Council of the First muttered amongst themselves over Geoffrey's inquiry.
As they discussed in private they finally spoke aloud to Geoffrey. "The Mana works in ways that are mysterious, even to us, so called Sages. Yet, the Mana has given strong indication that The Eternal One maybe one of the Avatars, despite the lack of an apparent truth, we as the Council cannot afford to ignore this Eternal One." The Head responded. "Then, is it the wish of the Council for me to confront this Eternal One?" Doctor Infinity asked. "No, it is not yet time to face the Eternal One in combat...for now, we wish you to remain vigilant and act only when The Eternal One decides to strike." The Head quickly responded. Doctor Infinity bowed before this request. "One last thing must be brought up to discussion before our champion departs." A Councilman reminded their Head. "Yes, the matter of Earth troubles us greatly." He spoke. Geoffrey perked up as the Council seemed to have misgivings about his homeworld. Naturally concerned Doctor Infinity spoke, "What seems to be the matter with Earth?" The Head looked down upon the Doctor as he spoke with a heavy sigh.
"The Mana may reveal many things but one thing it cannot is the Future, merely, omens of the Future can be given and the Future of Earth is hidden within darkness. The Earth is going through a tumultous time of a change and the outcome of said change may greatly affect the rest of the Universe." He spoke. The Doctor was taken aback of what he was saying, is the Earth really becoming such a focal point in the Universe? As far as he could tell, the Earth lived in bliss of the great, wide Universe, nothing but an insignificant speck compared to the infinity of the Universe. He was quite happy the Earth drew no great attention like so many other planets that have long since created vast Empires that alter the course of history every where. Is it Earth's time to join such recognition and become a power player in the Universe? "Please tell me, what is happening on my home that would bring about such great change?" He asked greatly worried. "The Humans have come into contact with great power, power that is altering them, changing them into something far beyond what is considered Human. They are radically gaining fantastic powers and abilities and it is this quick and sudden change that brings about a great mystery that must be solved. Some way, some how, these Humans will forever change the scope of their planet either saving it or dooming it. Whether they be friend or foe, remains to be seen." The Head rambled on.
Doctor Infinity stood their, silent for sometimes as he mulled over the Council's words. He wasn't quite sure what was happening but since it was happening to his home, he felt obligated to learn more and find some way to help steer in on the course for good. With resolve in his eyes he stares up to the Council and speaks, "I may not be aware of the events on my own planet, but I shall consult the Augury and I will watch these Empowered Humans and determine if they are a threat to us." He spoke aloud. "That is all we ask of thee, Doctor Infinity." The Head spoke. After they each bowed their heads, Doctor Infinity was dismissed as he returned to the Ivory Tower. He once again peered within the ever clear pool as the Augury showed him of Earth, specifically Shadow Isle prison as a group of empowered individuals fight to quell the violent uprising occurring over the island. So far it seemed the situation has been mostly detained, yet the fight with Agent 16 holds his undivided attention. He watched on, wondering which side will be triumphant in this conflict.
It had gone on for too long, FAR too long.
He had fought this man to a standstill so many times, but he was not going to fight until another standstill happened again. As soon as the two went for each other again, Agent 16 used his bionic arm to punch his opponent in the forehead before running at them and tackling them down onto the stone, using as much strength as he could to lift both of them out of the hole they had created for themselves and back onto regular ground.
He began to smash the man in different areas so hard that he broke the shield multiple times, before he used his rifle and parts of broken debris to attack the man's head and leave him battered and bloodied. He threw the man back down into the hole, thinking he was dead, but little did he know that the man was still very much alive, just unconscious.
He looked around, seeing if there was anyone else left for him to take down, and noticed two men off in this distance, heading his way. He grinned evilly and walked towards them, brandishing his combat knife and handgun.
