Plot
A news report spoke of a Paragon who had appeared in Union City Central Park. This news report attracted the attention of many Union City civilians, including the kinetic energy manipulator Castillion, a gladiator named Hypaspist, the vampire Requiem, a local vandal Blackout, a kid named Daniel, and the British Ambassador, Lady Jack. The six would-be heroes introduce themselves to Golden Glory, the Paragon in the park, when they are interrupted by a drunk Scottish barbarian, Ur Mom. Golden Glory makes quick work to show off his power, leaving he six in awe. He soon after reveals himself to be The Crimson Crusher, a powerful villain. The six attack immediately but to no effect, almost losing the battle before a freak meteor flies in and destroys the Crimson Crusher. The six heroes realize they enjoyed battling together and made a quick decision to join together as a team, named The Guardians.

Days after the park incident, news reports from Isaac Rate label The Guardians as vigilantes and enemies of Union City, warning all people to stay away and report their actions to the authorities. The Guardians, using the Embassy as a base, become under attack after a report goes in to the military of their location. Blackout begins the battle by firing a rocket at one of three military helicopters attacking the base, destroying it instantly. Requiem and Hypaspist attack the second helicopter, with little efficiency, until Castillion throws Daniel into the second helicopter. He kills the pilot with a knife, causing it to spiral out of control and crash. Requiem boards the last helicopter and neutralizes the pilot, landing the helicopter, and ending the fight.
