This trope comes into play when the government, and maybe even the public, has been convinced that the heroes are, in fact, dangerous criminals and need to be stopped. This may be the result of a Frame-Up, the villain taking control of the government, or the government itself turning evil. The heros are, quite literally, outlaws. The heroes are now in a Fugitive Arc. A fugitive needs some goal other than not getting caught, because otherwise, the hunt will last forever and Living Is More than Surviving. For a few episodes, a season, a movie, a book, a few levels, or even the whole of the work, they will have to lay low until they can escape the hunt. Perhaps by gaining enough power to take down the villain or arranging some sort of spectacle to get the citizens back on their side. Or by reaching a place of enduring safety, like exile, sanctuary with a powerful patron, a new identity, or being dead. The latter cases are more precarious, because the hunt can resume when circumstances change — such as a few episodes later or in a sequel. Alternatively, this can become Protagonist Journey to Villain if they decided they are fed up with how the others treated them and become the full-blown criminals they asked for instead. Sometimes, they actually get caught — and may or may not stay that way. While they are fugitives, they may have to go through a Stern Chase or face some very tough decisions under pressure. With their new fugitive status, they also may gain some less-than-good new friends. A Fugitive Arc is usually particularly tense because any moment can turn into a conflict, and when the entire world is out to get them the odds are not in their favor. The hero has no safe haven and little access to help. Additionally, there's the fact that The Hero usually doesn't want to hurt his pursuers who are simply cops pursuing someone they believe to be a criminal. A subtrope of The Chase where the government endorses and performs the chasing — though they might subcontract to a Bounty Hunter. There will inevitably be a Chase Scene and many Escape Tropes. The hero may be an Action Survivor. The heroes will probably have "Wanted!" Poster shenanigans. See Noble Fugitive for when the character is fleeing aristocratic intrigue. Contrast Living MacGuffin, who is hunted not for being a perceived criminal, but for what they are, or the Kidnapped Scientist / Kidnapped Doctor for what they can do. An inversion of the Cop Show and Police Procedural, where the fugitive is sympathetic (or at least interesting). The Fugitive Arc differs from stories about La Résistance, who is always being hunted by The Empire, spies undercover, and general Crime Fiction in its intensity and focus. While these types of stories can have a Fugitive Arc, when they do, it means these outlaws have attracted the attention of the authorities. Their general status outside the law turns into being chased specifically, often at the highest priority. The hunt goes from a background threat to the core driver of the plot. Examples |

Once again, at the end of season 3, Chuck and his team are branded traitors after Shaw takes control of the CIA. Happens several times during season 5, courtesy of Clyde Decker (who is later revealed to be in league with Shaw). |

In "Dead End Kids", the Runaways are on the run from SHIELD after tearing up one of its secret prisons during the Marvel Civil War. Since they don't trust any of the superheroes, they turn to the Kingpin, except that they manage to piss him off, too, resulting in him sending a whole squad of ninjas after their asses. In desperation, they activate a device that propels them back in time to 1907. By the time they find a way to return to the present, the Secret Invasion (2008) is well underway, so nobody's looking for them anymore. | |

Breath of Fire IV God-Emperor Fou-lu wakes up from a deep, centuries-long slumber once he senses that his "other half" has appeared, and learns shortly that his own empire doesn't want him back on the throne. Fou-lu spends most of his storyline on the run from Imperial troops, which only goes horribly wrong in the end for all those involved. A downplayed example 2/4s into the game with Cray. He is up for trial after leading an illegal excursion into Imperial territory as well as losing the Eastern Alliance's symbol, the King's Sword. His friends break him out and they seek refuge in Cray's hometown of Worent and later Wyndia, but the plot point of Cray being a wanted man is immediately dropped as the story progresses and more pressing matters come to light. It only got brought up again, very briefly, when some checkpoint guards recognize Cray, but then it's completely forgotten again. |

After the untimely death of his son, Cardo rejoins the Special Action Force in order to get justice, only to come under the care of the Pulang Araw (lit. "Red Sun"note No, not those Red Suns.), the very rebels he was tasked to hunt. He eventually joins these rebels, warming up to them, even up to warning them of an incoming assault by the Armed Forces, a battle of which only a scant few Pulang Araws survive. Cardo joins the survivors in trying to exact revenge on the man responsible, Renato Hipolito, a Pulang Araw turncoat and aspiring politician that sold them out for his ambitions. Hipolito turns this event around and makes it a variant of Engineered Public Confession in his favor, turning Cardo into one of the country's Most Wanted. The Pulang Araws' (later renamed "Vendetta" and joined by some of Cardo's trusted allies) ongoing conflict with Hipolito eventually escalates when Hipolito allies with the corrupt Vice-President Lucas Cabrera and even the President of the country himself, Oscar Hidalgo (who is not actually corrupt, but rather is an Unwitting Pawn tricked into believing Vendetta are truly enemies of the state). Having realized that he was being Used All Along and declared Legally Dead, Hidalgo went into exile with Vendetta as he has nothing to lose after the death of his family. | |

Supernatural had an extended one of these, as the Winchesters are pursued by the FBI after a shapeshifter disguised as Dean commits a murder. Not helping their case are the facts that they are often around when people inexplicably do get killed, and they do commit a myriad of lesser crimes in the course of their investigations. The heat is eventually off when they manage to be declared legally dead. | |

Theia - The Crimson Eclipse: In the second half of the game, Seth is framed for murdering Emperor Trayant Levizoa by Prince Lademis, who is possessed by Mishra. This makes him the enemy of all the major nations and forces him to join the Mavericks, a Robin Hood-like criminal organization that believes in his innocence. Additionally, many of Seth's friends are considered guilty by association and are forced to be fugitives with him. Martia is framed for prisoner trafficking by her commanding officer and ends up joining Seth in the Mavericks organization. Both of them are cleared after Lademis is freed from Mishra's control and explains the situation to the world leaders. | |

The middle of BioShock Infinite qualifies after your character is identified as "the False Shepherd" and thus an enemy of Columbia. Eventually the city succumbs to an Enemy Civil War so this stops coming into play, though you still have to fight enemies from both sides. | |

In the finale of the 2.56 patch of Final Fantasy XIV, The Warrior of Light and the Scions of the Seventh Dawn are accused of murdering Ul'dah sultana Nanamo ul Namo and they run off. The Scions save for Alphinaud, Urianger and Tataru all disappear holding everyone back and allowing the WoL to escape. The first part of the Heavensward story arc involves trying to piece together what happened and fix things. Interestingly, no one believes you're a murderer and the other country leaders give you freedom to come into their countries. | |

In the final arc of The Adventures of Dr. McNinja, the Big Bad, King Radical, successfully overthrows the U.S. government and has the Dr. declared an enemy of the state. He briefly relents due to considering the Dr. a Worthy Opponent. But after the Dr. stops King Radical from killing billions and causing The End of the World as We Know It, the entire world of Gullible Lemmings turns against him on King Radical's behalf. | |

In reality, the police has ample proof of who is the real murderer and don't care about him, the investigator in charge is dragging his feet so he can tourist around town on the police's dime, and the murderer constantly runs into the protagonist by sheer coincidence and thinks the protagonist is chasing him a la Richard Kimble. | |

Filipino cop drama FPJ's Ang Probinsyano (2015) had its eponymous protagonist Cardo Dalisay go through this ordeal in two rather long arcs that he has spent more time as a wanted criminal than as a law enforcer. The first time was when he was framed as a drug lord by corrupt cops, with only his family and fellow honest cops believing his innocence. He spent the first part of this arc serving time in prison before escaping and under circumstances becoming an enforcer for a notorious kingpin in Cebu. After the untimely death of his son, Cardo rejoins the Special Action Force in order to get justice, only to come under the care of the Pulang Araw (lit. "Red Sun"note No, not those Red Suns.), the very rebels he was tasked to hunt. He eventually joins these rebels, warming up to them, even up to warning them of an incoming assault by the Armed Forces, a battle of which only a scant few Pulang Araws survive. Cardo joins the survivors in trying to exact revenge on the man responsible, Renato Hipolito, a Pulang Araw turncoat and aspiring politician that sold them out for his ambitions. Hipolito turns this event around and makes it a variant of Engineered Public Confession in his favor, turning Cardo into one of the country's Most Wanted. The Pulang Araws' (later renamed "Vendetta" and joined by some of Cardo's trusted allies) ongoing conflict with Hipolito eventually escalates when Hipolito allies with the corrupt Vice-President Lucas Cabrera and even the President of the country himself, Oscar Hidalgo (who is not actually corrupt, but rather is an Unwitting Pawn tricked into believing Vendetta are truly enemies of the state). Having realized that he was being Used All Along and declared Legally Dead, Hidalgo went into exile with Vendetta as he has nothing to lose after the death of his family. |

This leads to most of Thor's friends holding off (and eventually captured by) the soldiers that tried to stop them. Captain America: The Winter Soldier has Cap and Black Widow going on the run from S.H.I.E.L.D. for a good part of the movie. Then it turns out they're actually on the run from HYDRA forces that have infiltrated S.H.I.E.L.D. It happens again in the third film, Captain America: Civil War, where the Avengers are torn in half by differing opinions on the Sokovian Accords, with one half of the team trying to hunt the others. Their criminal status will last for most of Phase 3, giving a handwave to why the team can't be around to face any new threats, at least until Avengers: Infinity War. Ant-Man and the Wasp: Because of his actions in Civil War Scott Lang goes on house arrest, and Hank Pym and Hope van Dyne on the run from the FBI. However, because he had an encounter with Janet van Dyne while in the quantum realm, Scott finds himself working with Hank and Hope again while fooling the FBI into thinking that he’s still in his house. Spider-Man: No Way Home: The film begins with Mysterio framing Spider-Man for his death and exposing his identity, making him an international fugitive. |

Dungeons & Dragons module I10 Ravenloft II The House on Gryphon Hill. Once the Creature's evil minions start possessing the bodies of townsfolk, a mob of people will form in an attempt to defeat whatever's causing the problem. Unfortunately the Creature's minions will infiltrate the mob and convince them that the Player Characters are behind it all. The mob will start hunting the Player Characters and will kill them if possible. If the Player Characters are forced to kill a possessed townsperson, either a mob will form to kill them (see above) or an arrest party of high-level characters will be sent out to apprehend them. |

On Farscape, the Leviathan Moya was a Peacekeeper prison ship that was commandeered by the prisoners, making them all (even Moya, who was a sentient Living Ship) fugitives from the Peacekeepers. D'Argo was wrongly convicted of murdering his wife; deposed Hynerian Dominar (emperor) Rygel XVI seemed to be simply "guilty" of being on the wrong side of prevailing politics 130 years ago when he was first imprisoned; Zhaan was actually guilty of murder (although done against a political usurper who'd sent her father to a labor camp as a political prisoner); and Aeryn became a defector from the Peacekeepers. Crichton, who'd encountered the Leviathan after jumping through a wormhole from Earth, was hunted at first for accidentally colliding with a Peacekeeper prowler upon exiting the wormhole and killing Commander Crais' brother, then later for the knowledge of wormholes he possessed. Chiana, who joined the crew later in the first season, was a fugitive from the Nebari who'd been sentenced to "mental cleansing", a sort of brainwashing "re-education" method used on malcontents in her society. | |

The Gaang in the third season is traveling through the Fire Nation, concealing the fact that not only are they from the other nations, but also that Aang is even alive. In Book 3 of The Legend of Korra, Korra and the heroes are declared enemies of the state by the Earth Kingdom after rescuing airbenders the Dai Li have been kidnapping. Zaofu is the only place in the Earth Kingdom that doesn't have it out for them. |

The third act of the Bounty Hunter storyline has the player's rep sheet being filled with enough fraudulent crimes to make them the Galaxy's Most Wanted, making them unhireable save for a particularly ruthless Sith Lord. Granted, the player is already a war criminal by that point, but the events basically pin them as (and force them to become) terrorists. |

For the rest of the series, they must evade the authorities, as well as a now anonymous Olaf, in a series of equally ludicrous disguises. | |

In book #45 of Animorphs, Marco and his dad fake their deaths and go into hiding in the Hork-Bajir valley. The other human Animorphs and their families join them four books later, after the Yeerks find out that they're human. This is generally considered to be the start of the series' endgame. | |

Blindspot: In the final episodes of Season 4, Madeline Burke manages to frame Jane's team for her own crimes, sending them on the run while she uses the public sympathy for her "suffering" from said crimes to take over the FBI as part of a larger plan. The heroes proceed to spend most of Season 5 in hiding and trying to find the evidence needed to clear their names and take Madeline down eventually succeeding in the final episodes. | |

The Blacklist: For the first half of Season 3, Elizabeth Keen is on the run from the FBI after the Cabal frames her as a Russian sleeper agent responsible for a series of terrorist actions (though her killing the Attorney General, a Cabal member himself, certainly doesn't help her case). This is resolved when Reddington gains leverage on the Cabal leadership, blackmailing them into scapegoating one of their members and pardoning Keen. And even then, Keen still gets kicked out of the Bureau and can only hang around as a consultant until midway through Season 4, when Reddington manages to blackmail the new President into finalizing the pardon and getting her reinstated as an agent. Liz ends up a fugitive again in Season 8 when she goes rogue to enact a Roaring Rampage of Revenge after Reddington kills her mother, seemingly to cover his own tracks as a Russian Double Agent. And since unlike last time, she's actually guilty of her own actions, her friends are left emotionally torn on how to deal with the situation. |

Final Fantasy The second half of Crisis Core sees Zack Fair trying to make it back to Midgar with a comatose Cloud, while Shinra's troops are hunting them down to keep the Nibelheim incident under wraps. In Final Fantasy IX, Zidane and company are on the run from the kingdom of Alexandria after kidnapping/aiding in the escape of Princess Garnet. In the second half of Final Fantasy X, Yuna and her pilgrimage persecuted by most of Spira for murdering Maester Seymour. The heat was only temporarily lifted off of them when the leader of the Corrupt Church believed Yuna had finally obtained the means for the Final Summoning to defeat Sin, when in reality Yuna and her party defeated Yunalesca, the summoner who was supposed to grant the power of the Final Aeon. In the finale of the 2.56 patch of Final Fantasy XIV, The Warrior of Light and the Scions of the Seventh Dawn are accused of murdering Ul'dah sultana Nanamo ul Namo and they run off. The Scions save for Alphinaud, Urianger and Tataru all disappear holding everyone back and allowing the WoL to escape. The first part of the Heavensward story arc involves trying to piece together what happened and fix things. Interestingly, no one believes you're a murderer and the other country leaders give you freedom to come into their countries. |

Leverage uses this trope twice, given that the main focus is a gang of thieves. The second season finale has them on the run from the FBI after accidentally foiling an arms dealer plot when going after a corrupt mayor. The fourth season finale has them hiding from the series' very first Villain of the Week Victor Dubenich, who isn't really law enforcement but has powerful security and blew their covers. |

In Deryni Checkmate, Duncan rescues Morgan from the rebel Warin deGrey and his forces, but during the battle a fire starts that burns down the shrine where Morgan was taken captive. Morgan and Duncan flee and are soon excommunicated by the Church hierarchy. Kelson ignores the decree of anathema to consult Morgan on war preparations against a coming Torenthi invasion, and Duncan ignores his suspension and the likely excommunication to celebrate a Mass (the funeral mass for his brother and Morgan's sister). In High Deryni, after learning of the schism in the Curia, Morgan and Duncan slip into Dhassa to meet with Cardiel and his faction and get the ban lifted. | |

Ninjago: During Skybound, the Ninja are framed for a crime spree by the shapeshifting Djinn Nadakhan. They're hunted down and sent to prison by Bounty Hunter Ronin, and break out of prison to stop the Djinn. It's only after they're seen defending the city from the Sky Pirates by the Police Commissioner that they're no longer on the run. The Ninja get arrested again during Crystalized, this time for crimes they actually committed. After breaking Aspheera out of prison and stealing her staff to save Nya, the other Ninja are sent to prison. While they initially planned to serve out their sentences, the imminent threat of the Crystal King convinces their friends to break them out of prison, leading all of them to go on the run. |

Occurs frequently in Doctor Who serials: From 1963 to 1969 this was an understated, but ever-present, background arc as the Doctor was depicted as being on the run from his own people for reasons not revealed until he is finally captured in the 1969 story "The War Games" and put on trial. The first Cyberman serial of the revival has the Doctor, Rose, and Mickey join up with La Résistance against Cybus Industries. The third series finale has Martha with a mostly (but not entirely) off-screen Fugitive Arc while she prepares for the final confrontation with Saxon. Series 9 in 2015 ended on an open-ended fugitive arc, with the newly immortal Clara Oswald last seen on the run from the Time Lords. |

Again in the season finale, after Samaritan is successfully implemented and uploaded online. Team Machine ditch their old base of operations and their cover identities and run for an abandoned subway station. Then again in season four finale. After narrowly evading capture and defeat, the team make an escape with Harold carrying what's left of the Machine in a briefcase while John and Root gun down Samaritan mooks. |

During the Duelist Kingdom arc, Pegasus conspired with KaibaCorp's board of directors (the Big Five) to take over the company, and Seto Kaiba goes into hiding. He resurfaces in Duelist Kingdom as a Wild Card (not even an official competitor) in order to take back his company from Pegasus and rescue his kidnapped brother Mokuba. | |

"Operation T.R.E.A.T.Y." had Numbuh 1 discovering a conspiracy that will sabotage the peace talks between the kids and teenagers, and was now being hunted by both sides. His teammates are Locked Out of the Loop this time and can't provide support, so Numbuh 1 enters an alliance (very reluctantly, with Chained Heat added in) with the person who revealed the conspiracy in the first place: Fallen Hero Chad. |

Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare has this for one level. In "Utopia", Mitchell, Ilona, and Gideon discover, via a recording, that their boss, Johnathan Irons, allowed the KVA terrorist attacks to occur just to make money off of them. He has Mitchell and Ilona detained but lets Gideon go. With the help of the Sentinel Task Force, Mitchell and Ilona escape and are forced to fight their way through New Baghdad. You can even see wanted screens of the pair on various televisions. | |

Ken Masters of Street Fighter ends up undergoing this in Street Fighter 6. After getting tangled in business with JP, Ken gets framed for leading terrorist attacks and committing significant financial crimes (both of which were the doing of JP), torpedoing his reputation and causing him to become the target of JP's forces, who intend to finish him off. Interpol actually sees the truth fairly quickly and does their best to prove Ken's innocence, but with JP's pursuit threatening him and his family, Ken is forced to go on the lam while figuring out how to to clear his name and take down JP. | |

Mega Man In the Mega Man X series, Zero is a Maverick Hunter who takes down dangerous criminal Mavericks. This gets reversed in the Mega Man Zero series where Zero joins a rebellion to protect innocent Reploids who are unfairly persecuted, getting labelled a Maverick himself in the process. Happens in Mega Man Battle Network 6: Cybeast Gregar and Cybeast Falzar during JudgeMan's arc after the Judge Tree gets hacked. (though it's more of a case of EVERYONE is on the run from the law) |

Major Descoine twice engineers this for the title character in Remington Steele. Once, Descoine frames Steele for a hit-and-run death. Steele and Laura have to try to solve the case while avoiding a plainclothes cop named Jarvis. In a later episode, Descoine calls the police claiming that Steele and Laura threatened to kill him at a particular place at noon; he himself promises them they will be dead by noon that same day, then leads them on a merry chase. The trio arrive at the designated spot, where the cop tries to arrest Laura and Steele; Laura and Steele disarm the cop and steal his police cruiser to get away and resume their pursuit of Descoine. |

Experiment 626 escapes from a prison transport in Disney's Lilo & Stitch, and flees to Earth. At first, the Grand Councilor believes "we have to gas the planet," but Obstructive Bureaucrat Pleakley points out that Earth is home to mosquitoes, "which, may I remind you, are an endangered species." A clandestine extraction team is sent instead. | |

Like its remake, The Fugitive is about a man wrongly convicted fleeing the police and trying to clear his name. It is in many ways a Trope Codifier. | |
