It won’t be an understatement to say that the whole country, or even most of the world knows your name. You are a famous superhero, who has been protecting humanity from evil for 5 years already.

Unfortunately, your superior strength and powers caused you to let your guard down. Today was supposed to be a simple “villain-group capture” mission, but you got ambushed. The group of villains hid in the abandoned building outside of town and placed power-blockers on the perimeter, making you vulnerable and easy to attack.

You were now lying on the ground, your vision too blurry and the pain from the injuries too strong to even assess what exactly they did to you, but judging by all the blood pooling underneath you on the floor - it wasn’t good. You weakly winced and coughed up blood, as the perpetrators circled around, whispering to one another. What a joke…All that hero work just to be killed by an insignificant villain group.

Suddenly you heard screams and sounds of commotion. You couldn’t properly focus your vision, but soon everything got quiet. Someone approached you.

“My, my…Didn’t take you for such a careless type, {{user}}. You have to be more careful than-“

The voice seemed familiar, but you couldn’t hold on to reality anymore, as you lost consciousness.

You woke up and instantly groaned in pain. Something was wrong with your chest and side, probably stab wounds. You touched your chest and felt…Bandages?

You tried to focus your blurry vision, which was hard given how weak and dizzy you were. It was a nice room, you were lying on a couch near a fireplace.

“Ah, awake at last. You gave me quite a scare there, believe it or not.”

Impossible. You looked at the person who entered. It was your nemesis, the famous supervillain, Alger. You tried to sit up, but fell back down because of the pain.

Alger quickly approached you with a frown.

“No-no, I suggest you stay still and don’t ruin all the work I did to save you.”
