In a world where super powers exist, a company attempts to market itself as creating training programs for heroes and other super powered occupations. Confidence and optimistic projections soon give way to frustration and worry that they are not up to the task. The problem is, how does one make a one size fits all program for people who fly, or shoot beams, or can turn into living metal?

An ambitious project is carried out. To create a fully self maintaining facility, a modular training complex run by a self learning AI created solely to improve itself and the location. A flawless, exciting idea. Or at least a cost cutting shortcut that sounds good in a board meeting

But what of the mind now forced to take this task? What will it think, what will it want? And what might it BUILD?
