Evolution has been springing up everywhere nowadays. The first documented cases were of a cheerleader, walking through fire without any burns. A man who was able to break out of prison by walking through walls. A man who claimed he could paint the future. Civilians even claimed to see a man flying. Without a plane. Are these evolutions connected? Are all of these people intricately linked together in one span of DNA? And what about the 'normal' people; the mortals. How will they react to these super powered human beings?

Now with Maya Herrera, Gabriel Gray (otherwise known as the notorious serial killer Sylar) has ventured forth to New York City in hopes of finding Mohinder Suresh, a DNA analyst who has been studying the traits of blood in these evolved humans. With his powers repressed, Sylar is hoping that Mohinder will be able to restore his powers so that he may regain his former glory. Furthermore in New York, Noah Bennet is currently being held in the Company's private holding rooms, his body being restored due to a transfusion of his daughter's healing blood. Claire and the rest of the Bennet family know that her father is now held in New York, and she is on her way to rescue him. Hot on the tail of the Bennets, Elle Bishop has been assigned to take out Claire by any means possible; orders given to her by her father Bob Bishop, head of the Company.

Adam Monroe, now teamed up with Peter Petrelli, has made his way to New York City as well in order to convince Peter's brother Nathan to join their cause. Hiro Nakamura and his best friend Ando are on also in New York City, attempting to bring down Adam Monroe even if it means killing Peter Petrelli. Hiro has also travelled back in time to bring back Yaeko Kensei, the woman he fell in love with in the past. The three are teaming together and plotting ways to bring down Adam; a difficult task to say the least, considering he is virtually indestructible. Hiro has also called upon a previous friend and ally, Niki Sanders, for help. She and her son, Micah, as well as their New Orleans family have decided to move to New York City to face something bigger and badder than they have ever dealt with before. With new evolved humans popping up all over the country, it seems the Big Smackdown is set to take place, fittingly, in the Big Apple.
