"We're all connected. Our hopes and our dreams, our childrens' futures reflecting back in each others eyes. We fight our own personal battles. But we know we're not alone. Because only together can we make our short time on this planet mean something. Only together can we be the stewards of our own destiny." - Nathan Petrelli

What is our destiny? The world has changed a lot in the past 4 years. It is now 2012 and things are not as they appear. Around 2010, evolved humans around the world started being discovered more and more. The Company attempted to fight off and hide the ones in America, but as they were discovered in other countries, the Company found it harder and harder to keep the ones in America secret. Within the next 2 years, everything about the evolved humans has been revealed to the public and to the world. Each country has reacted differently, but problems are arising everywhere, no matter what the governments of the world try.

People not born with abilities have started turning to the corrected formula. The formula has just made its way into the hands of the general public and nowadays, anyone can get an injection that gives them synthetic abilities. The ones who have natural abilities are in a war with those that have synthetic abilities and it is only getting worse. Battles are breaking out across the world and some of the major cities of the world are being left in ruins. On both sides there are those who use their powers for good and peace, or the "heroes", and those who use their powers for less altruistic motives, or the "villains".

The sins of the previous generation have caused the newer generation to suffer. Will these new evolved humans repeat the same mistakes or will they find a way to prevent misfortune and chaos?

Some will die, for death is the one thing that connects us all. It reminds us that what's really important is who we've touched, and how much we've given. It makes us realize that we have to be good to one another so that we may all enjoy peace during our sojourn in this world. But is our future pre-determined, or do our choices change the outcome? What will happen in the year 2012?

Those questions and more will soon be answered. New heroes and villains will emerge and change the world as we know it. For better or worse... you decide.
