Heroes are banned after a horrible event 17 years ago. In desperate times heroes are needed. You are Ghost, a masked vigilante wanted by both the Holloway Crime Family and the Super Hero Control Unit. With two years of illegal crime fighting under y...
There were two kinds of heroes. Accidental heroes who got their powers from a strange event or lab accident. Then there were the Crypts, people borned with powers. To be a Crypt you had to be born with Crypt blood. That doesn't mean that if your parents are Crypts that you will be one to. They were born at random.
The Crypt population only ranged to 2% before dropping to 1% over the span of 10 years. Most heroes were Crypts while only a minority were Accidentals. There had never been a non powered hero before due to the fact that the villians tend to be very powerful.
Heroes were looked up to by all. They would save the day, rescue the civilians, and stood for the greater good. With them we thrived as humans now knowing that we were all safe as long as they were around.
Then, the Event happened.
17 years ago, on March 21st, billions of lives were lost. Several Villains calling themselves the Godless took all of New York hostage. They demanded $20 billion or they would level the entire city. The government refused to pay believing the heroes would save them.
They were terribly wrong.
Among the Godless were several "heroes" who turned against the very people they protected. They had sided with the villains and fought off those who tried to enter the city. In the end, the government ran out of time. The villains were good on their word. At 12:45 am, the Godless blew up New York City with a single push of a button.
After that many shunned the heroes. The governments all gathered to pass one act. The Super Hero Control Act.
This stated that the only way anyone wanted to be a hero, they would have to do so by the government's orders. They became soldiers. Crypts were forced to attend the Crypt Campus where they would learn to harness their power and would be put to work after graduation. Anyone who refused to follow this act were hunted down by either the Super Hero Control Unit, the SHCU for short, or the Crypt Control Unit.
Many heroes vanished after the act while others followed the orders of their governments. The Crypt Campus has expanded a bit but not by much. People are scared to even put "Crypt" on their papers.
You weren't either a Accidental nor a Crypt. You were just a normal human being. You were just a boy who didn't know a lot about anything. Just a normal guy.
God I wish that was true.
"Y/N hurry up! It's getting late!" The girl complained.
You snapped out of your thoughts and turned to your friend.

"Sorry I spaced out." You apologised.
You made you way to the girl and smiled. She was your childhood friend, Montoya Holloway. A sweet, innocent, polite girl who was always ahead of you in every subject. Where she lacked in social skills she made up with her intelligence.
