Fantasy Do Heroes Count as Fantasy?

When you were younger, adults would always ask you what you wanted to be when you grew up. For Kane, it was a hero. Most grow out of this as they grow, and she did, sort of. She developed a love for science in middle school, and still had her wish to be a hero. By the time she hit high school, she had developed a love for cats, even more science, and water bottles full of vodka. She had stopped making her wish of being a hero apparent. She was quiet about it, although it was a dream of hers. She would lose herself in her daydreams and her grades slipped some, but she managed to make it out with decent grades.

Decent.

Since that was the case, she was denied by every college she applied to that would let her make use of her love of science, and at the time she was devastated. She decided to drink her sorrows away after that, as she sat sloshed and close to passing out at a bar. After a fer moments, a man approached her and sat beside her. "Tell me, kid. What do you want to be when you grow up?" She looked at him for a few moments before she chuckled. "A hero." she slurred out before she passed out.

When she woke up she was strapped to a metal table, an IV in her arm and unable to move in the slightest. The same man looked down at her as he injected something into the IV. "Enjoy becoming a hero, kid." he said, as a wave of pain washed over her and she screamed. Over the next few months she was trained to fight, and listen. She was tortured as her body changed, a tail and pair of ears taking form on her, and her senses changing. She was stronger, faster, and she had the ability to turn her fingernails into claws on command. After they thought she was ready they had her beat. It took over a hundred men, but they managed to beat her to near death, and throw her in the middle of nowhere as she lay dying.

She managed to keep herself alive, and after a time she made a hero of herself. She knew other people with actual powers, but they didn't do anything heroic with them. Here recently, she had been rather on edge. Crime was getting worse, and she had gotten a call from someone she couldn't place, telling her to expect someone at her home, to have quite the talk about her powers. And maybe more than that. That didn't bode well with her.
