Sir, we have collected the second set of test subjects. After the mistakes made with the first set of test subjects, we have changed our testing range to subjects between the ages of sixteen and thirty. Testing with the Type Two formula will begin shortly. While we have changed key elements in the formula, we are still taking certain precausions to ensure the test subjects do not meet the same unfortunate results as the first set. I will update you on our progress shortly...
Government Transcript #0032
Sir, we completed testing on all of the second set of test subject. Whilst the end result was more successfull then the first set, this group has still been classed as a failure. Nearly all the subjects developed the abilities we expected, but the Type Two formula seems to have affected the brains of the subjects. While they are still alive, they have lost all there ability to make there own choices. While i'm sure they would make good soldiers, there lack of ability to make there own choices makes them not suitable for battle situations. All second set test subjects are to be frozen to await further testing.
Governemt Transcript #0537
Sir, the age is the key. After further testing, we have discovered that the Type Two formula has different affects on the host, depending on the age. From this, we have estimated that the appropriate age of the next test subjects will be from the age of twelve and under. Our plan for the third set of test subjects is to inject them with a different formula, then allow them to mature. If our theory is correct, once the subjects reach a certain age, they shall start to develop there abilities, and still retain all of mental ability. With permission, Sir, I would like to start collecting children from the age twelve and under, inject them with the new formula, then return them to there families, who will have no idea about what has happened. If we are correct, after a certain amount of time, they will develop there abilities, and it will be a complete success...
The year is 2011. Fifteen years ago, you were part of a Government project to create soldiers capable of doing the impossible. You have never had any knowledge of this, nobody has. However, lately, you have started to notice certain things about yourself. You have developed certain 'abilities', which are nothing short of incredible. These abilities, or powers, can be anything from flying, to creating black holes with your mind, and anything between.
However, the Government has kept an eye on you your entire life, and they have also noticed your new ability. The Government, seeing that the abilities developed were stronger then they ever imagined, has decided that you and the other test subjects are too powerfull, and are to be either killed or captured to be used for further testing.
The choice is now yours. With your new found ability, will you run and hide? Will you fight back against the Government who is hunting you down? Will you start wearing a costume and act like some kind of superhero? Or will you try to live your life as normal? The choice is yours, but it's not going to be easy, and life will never be the same again...
--------
Your Character: Your character can be anything you want, as long as it isn't some God type character. They must be between the age of 18 to 27. You can be a normal person, or anything you think of. However, your powers cannot be too over-powering. You can have a total of three powers at most. However, if you have three powers, each power will be slightly weaker then someone who has one power e.g. If someone has only one power, and that power is strength, then they will be alot stronger then someone who also has the power of strength, if that person has more then one power. Ask me if you don't understand.
The Government: The Government are the people who organised the testing. Now realising that your powers are too strong, they are trying to cover there own tracks. They are now trying to either kill you, or capture you, to prevent the public from finding out about there testing on children. They will do anything to achieve this, and have whatever they want at there disposal to do it.
Second Set Test Subjects (SSTS): Realising the powers you have, the Government have ordered all remaining SSTS to be unfrozen and be given orders to track down and kill or capture you and all of the other Third Set Test Subjects. There powers aren't as strong as yours are, but what they lack in power, they make up for in military training. They are not often used, but when they are, they aren't to be messed with.
First Set Test Subjects (FSTS): These were the original test subjects. There are very few in number, and only ever used as a last resort. They have huge deformities, to the point they barely look human. They have been experimented on so much, they have been trained to be the best the Government has to offer. They all have the same ability; they have incredible strength and can copy the ability of any other test subject they meet. Basically, they can do anything and everything you can do. If you should ever come across one of these, run.
1. No spamming. 2. No flamming. 3. Five Line Rule. 4. No God Modding at all. 5. I decide what counts as God Modding. 6. I can't stress this enough. If you want your character to meet another, always ask them before you do. I say this because I don't want people interupting other peoples stories. This can be really annoying if you have something planned and someone wrecks it by having there character interupt by meeting yours.

Cavin kept himself relaxed in his stasis bed, listening to an upgraded Ipod that played short stories to him while the music rolled on. He hadn't done much lately, and he was feeling rather lathargic. A yawn escaped his lips as he rolled onto his side. He kept his eyes closed, and eventually he began to fall asleep.
He woke up from a dreamless sleep, really needing to take a piss. With his Ipod still attached, Cavin stumbled to the bathroom. After concluding his buisness, he walked back out to his room in his underwear. Soon a rumbling feeling in his stomach made him want to take a trip to the cafeteria. Uncaring of his appearance, Cavin opened his door and shuffled out into the hallway. He kept his eyes closed, taking small steps. He was still really tired, but he knew the way by now. Unfortunately he didn't know what was going on during his sleeping, so he had stubbed his foot on the debreis that littered the floor. Shouting out angrily, he opened his eyes. The place was a mess. Whatever tore through here was a force to be reckoned with. Cavin took out his earbuds to hear the sound of the alarm. "Wow... these are really good upgraded..." Cavin muttered in surprise. He shoved the earbuds back into his ears, and continued on to the cafeteria, ignoring the masses of people screaming and moaning in pain.

My smile fade as they attacked me. i disappeared into the shadows as i reappear i was slamed into a tree "No one sent me"I said as i disappeared once more then show up sending a fire ball at byran but he hits it away. A noise stoped them and i look up seing six woman running at us. "Sorry we thought you were going to kill us, now if you don't want to die help us beat them"I hear i stare at the woman coming at us
I disappear in the shadows when i came up five of me comes up throwing dark balls at the woma, only two hit making them scream as they have there own nightmares. I jump out of the way of one woman. I pulled out a small staff with a werid looking crystal on top. "Guys watch out i don't know what this will do"I said the crystal turns red like fire but also black in it like shadows. "So much power....almost there"I thought as a beam fires hitting and killing two but hurting a third one. I passed out after it fired.

"Hey guys i'm May, what happened?" some lady said to us, I think I'd seen her before.
Of course, after what just happened, she could've been one of those shape-shifters. I didn't know what to do, I knew that right now I couldn't trust anyone.
Izzy looked at the lady, then at me, I nodded.
Izzy let out a scream that shot the lady into the air, then back down. Leonard cloaked himself, Izzy and Noom transformed. I shifted into my bone armor, and changed into the lion person again. We ran back to the woman, who had crashed by now.
"We're not *bleep*ing stupid!! Who sent you?! Why'd you kill them?!" Leonard yelled, this was when I was uncertain about the lady, who said her name was May.
She seemed to disappear into, a shadow? She reappeared behind us, just in time for Noom to pin her to a tree.
"Nobody sent me!" she said, I still couldn't believe her.
She teleported again, this time to our right. She shot a fireball from her hand, I was still unsure. The fire was shot in my direction, I shot a huge length of bone from my arm and smacked it away.
Then, we heard a noise. It came from a distant tree, a loud rustling, then a high-pitched chuckle. Then, six women jumped from the trees, and began running at us. They all had similar faces, and long, black hair, I recognized one as Luna's imposter.
They'd changed back, why hadn't the May lady? Shit, we were wrong.
"Sorry, thought you were going to kill us, now, unless you'd like to die, let's get rid of these mother*bleep*ers!" I quickly said, and I faced the six running at us.
I hoped there were no more casualties.

"Me go back to that place as if....good bye"I said disappearing in the shadows before they stoped me.
I exited the shadows after awhile walking down the road "Where to go now i need to find other people like me, so we can stop the government"I thought as i hear some noise uphead so i walk towards the noise. I see a camp with a few people in it "Hmmm...by the looks of the mess i found a few people like me"I said to myself. I walk up to them then i notice i knew one of them i don't know his name but we ran into one another.

Deuclian lowered his head in disdain, closing his eyes.
Bishop smirked and said, “What’s the matter, Grail? Don’t want to join the master race, do you?” Deuclian remained silent for a moment before he quietly muttered, “From the Bible…” Bishop raised an eyebrow as he continued; “Proverbs, chapter twenty-eight, verse twelve… in the exulting of the righteous, the glory is abundant… and in the rising of the wicked, man is apprehensive…”
Bishop chuckled. “Deuclian…” He said mockingly, “You and your cryptic speeches… I won’t lie; they always annoyed me greatly during the original project. Do you remember those times? When the evolution of man was literally in our hands, when we were molding the future like clay between our fingers?”
Deuclian shook his head and said, “Wrong… all wrong…”
Bishop shrugged and replied, “I just don’t know what it is with you, Deuclian. You say you believe in the ingenuity of mortal man, but why can’t you accept the fact that this IS ingenuity? Look at what we’ve created, what we’ve done!” Bishop motioned towards the nightmarish walls around him, the veins in his arms giving off some kind of strange light as he held them out. “Don’t you want to prosper, Deuclian? To live for centuries, to see the apex of this new race of godly beings?”
Deuclian remained silent for a few seconds. “No…” He finally said, “It’s… it’s a death sentence… for the entirety of mankind… you just can’t see it… you’re too blind, too mad with power… under your rule, extinction would quickly follow… you can’t hold evimeria in your hands… you’d simply crush it…”
Bishop shook his head with disappointment. “Fine.” He said, “Then you’ll just sit and wait while I carry on with my plans. And soon enough, when the entire world is under my command, when you are the last human being alive… then you’ll regret everything. And you WILL join me.”
Deuclian slowly looked up at Bishop, and with what little strength he could muster, he replied, “Never…”
Bishop simply glared at Deuclian before turning to Dumand and calling out, “Put him away, somewhere deep and dark. It won’t be long before he gives in.” Dumand grunted as it grabbed Deuclian’s chair and dragged him away, out of Bishop’s office.

Steven Bishop (NPC)
Steven stood infront of Deuclian, who wa restrained in the chair. He stared at the man, who hadn't changed since the last time they met. Steven had changed, however. He was stronger, faster, ultimately more powerfull then Deuclian could comprehend. Even know, he could feel the power inside him, flowing through his body.
"Lycaeon... at last..." Muttered Deuclian,as he struggled to regain consciousness.
Steven looked towards the creature that had once been Simon Dumond. I stood, emotionless, thought less. "I take it you have seen my newest creation? Fascinating, isn't it? Whoever could have dreamed that such things could be possible?"
Deuclain simply stared at Steven, listening.
"But this is truely insignificant compared to what I have become." Steven stated, lifting his hand and clenching his fist.
"Bishop, you crazy bastard. What have you done to yourself?" Deuclian asked, almost lauging.
"What have I done? I have become a God amoungst mortals, I am the next stage in evolution." Steven raised his voice slightly as he said this, before quickly lowering it as he looked at himself. "There have been... unpredicted side effects, but nothing comes without cost."
Steven began to march back and forth across the room. "Ah, but you will know this far too well in time. You see, soon, everyone shall become like me. But let's no get ahead of ourselves, Deuclian. There is still work to be done." Steven said, pulling a small sample of Compound X from his desk.
"Now, given the circumstances, it would seem redundant to simply kill you. No, I have something different in mind for you, Deuclian. Like Mr Dumand here, I think I will see what effects my Compound has on one such as yourself." Steven said to Deuclian, holding the Compound in his hands. Everything was going according to plan.

Kybur
Deuclian’s eyes slowly flickered open. His head was killing him. His vision was blurry. He could feel blood running from his nose. And he was inside something. A helicopter.
“He’s awake.” Someone called out.
Deuclian groaned as he tried to move, but he’d been completely restrained. He looked around, and immediately noticed the massive abomination from before, hanging along the side of the hull. Deuclian turned to the other personnel sitting across from him and muttered, “What’s… what’s going on?”
“Shut it.” The man replied, “We’re taking you to see Steven Bishop.” Deuclian sighed. How was he not surprised? Bishop obviously wanted to say something witty or demeaning to him before he killed him.
The helicopter quickly began to descend. Soon enough, it landed calmly. The abomination reached into the helicopter and grabbed Deuclian, pulling him outside and jumping off. More personnel follow it as it made its way into the facility. Deuclian quickly looked around to see the building complex was situated on an island of some sort. He had no idea where it was. This was never in the HP reports.
The light became darkness as Deuclian was carried into the facility. And he quickly saw the horrors that had transpired. There were bodies everywhere. Human ones. They were all fresh. This place was just home to an absolute massacre.
What the hell was wrong with Bishop? What had he done?
Deuclian kept calm as he was carried into an office, if you could even call it that. The lights were flickering, ready to go out completely. Blood was strewn across the walls, the ceiling, and the floor. This was the kind of thing you only see in your deepest nightmares.
Deuclian looked forward as the abomination held him upright. A chair before him turned, and sitting in it was none other than Bishop himself, looking anything but sane.
Deuclian sighed and drew up the strength to speak.
“Lycaeon… at last...”

Steven Bishop (NPC)
It was perfect. Steven stared at the screen in disbelief as the creature far exceeded his expectations. It had made short work of anything it came across, seemingly unstoppable. It hadn't even had to use an ability, it just stormed into Deuclians so called facility and cut through his guards as if they were nothing. If Compound X created this, Steven couldn't help but wonder what an entire army of those creatures could do. He could barely hide his excitement.
"Bring our guest to the facility. I want him here as soon as possible." Spoke Steven down the intercomm.
Everything was moving faster then he had anticipated. He had so much to prepare in so little time. Today, everything he had worked for for so long would become a reality.
"Dr Bishop. You have a visitor." Spoke the voice over the intercomm.
Steven was not expecting anyone. He opened his door, and greeted the visitor. It was man, standing taller then Bishop did. He wore a military uniform, with was covered in medals. Steven sat behind his desk, and the man sat infront of him.
"Dr Bishop, we need to talk." Said the man, in a stern voice.
"Yes? What is it about?" Steven asked.
He placed a few documents and pictures of Stevens desk. "As you well know, many of our government facility's have recently came under attack." He said, as Steven nodded. "Well, it seems your project has done nothing to stop these events. I won't stall, Dr Bishop. We are closing your project." He said, with such arogance.
"Excuse me?" Steven asked, raising his glasses.
"I'm sorry, Dr Bishop. We know how long you have worked on this. You will be re-assigned to other research, and any research here will be confiscated."
Steven stood up, turning around. "You dare come into MY facility, and think you can simply shut it down? I'm afraid it doesn't work like that."
"We aren't giving you a choice. You simply aren't producing the results we hoped for." He said, standing up.
Steven laughed slightly. "Don't act like you understand my work. No, it doesn't end today."
"Don't make it any harder then it has to be." Calmly said the Government officer.
Steven reached into his desk, pulling out a small syringe. Inside was a pure black liquid. Compound X.
"What are you doing?" He asked, putting his hand on his gun.
"I hadn't planned on using this until later, but it seems i have little choice." Steven said, as his injected himself with the liquid.
"What is that? Dr Bishop, I suggest you come with me."
Steven immediatly felt the effects. If he was correct, he had perfected the Compound X, but even he wasn't sure what might happen. He could feel it flowing through his body, changing him. It felt... good.
"Dr Bishop? What are you... What's going on... Oh my god! Stand down! Dr... Arghh!"
The facility was filled with screams of terror. Gun shots followed by shrieks and screams were the only noise to the outside. Within the hour, nearly every human inside the facility was dead. The hallways that had once been brightly lit were now dark, with flickering lights. The human workers were now just lifeless piles on the floor, with blood smeared across the walls.
Steven stood in the dark hallway, surrounded by the dead. He smiled, examining himself. He appeared completely normal, apart from perhaps appearing stronger. Inside, however, he was completely different. He stared at the man who lay infront of him, struggling for breath. Steven lifted his arm, which immediatly turned into a blade. He swung it, slashing the mans head from his body. His arm then returned to a hand. He had planned this for far too long, and it was finished. He had the power he had worked for, far more powerfull then any before him. He was a God compared to what the humans were around him.
There seemed to be... undesired side effects, however. Steven could feel it inside him. He struggled to keep himself appearing human. He didn't know what he might turn into if he allowed it. He would fix that later. Now, he walked to his blood stained office. In there, the mangled and torn body of the Government officer lay. Looking from his window, he could see the helicopter containing Deuclian approaching.
"Bring Deuclian to my office, but keep him restrained. I would like to talk to him." Said Steven, over his headset connected to Mr Dumand.
He was now unstoppable, and Deuclian would see that.

Kybur
Deuclian hung his head in his hands, sighing. The intruders, holding the opportunity to walk away unhindered and unharmed, decided it would be best to walk out in a blaze of gunfire and giant roots.
They were forced to kill one of them, as well. A shame, yes, but… the guards didn’t feel the same way about these ilk that Deuclian did.
Just then, a Stratiotis stepped through the door. “Director.” He said, “Everything’s been cleaned up. No one was injured. Guess they didn’t know about the Hardsuits.” Deuclian nodded as the Stratiotis continued; “And it turns out there was a fourth one who snuck into the facility and stole some data. An invisible… lizard, thing, uh… nevermind.”
Deuclian rubbed his eyes and said, “Just have everyone get back to work. Let’s not dwell too much on this.” The Stratiotis nodded and replied, “Yes, Director.” He turned and left the office, leaving Deuclian to his own.
…
An hour later, everything seemed normal again. Jason had not yet returned from his mission, but knowing him, he was doing just fine. Probably thinking of what kind of message to send.
Deuclian sighed and leaned back in his chair, closing his eyes to rest a bit.
Just then, a loud rumble echoed through the facility, and the alarm immediately went off. Deuclian stood up and turned to the intercom. “What’s going on?” He called out.
“Director!” Someone replied, “We’re under attack! Something just broke in through the lower levels, it’s barging through everything! We’re trying to- shit! No, you stay back! Right now! Get- ah!” The intercom went silent, and Deuclian shook his head in disdain. He switched the connection and called out to everyone, “Personnel to my office now!”
Within moments, four armed guards rushed into Deuclian’s office. One of them turned to him and said, “Director, we’ve identified the targets as Set Two Test Subjects, but there’s something else helping them.” Deuclian replied, “A Set One?”
“No.” He said, “That’s what we thought at first, but it’s different. It’s bigger, it’s more powerful, it’s wreaking havo-“
Just then, a loud, inhuman roar cut the guard off. Deuclian stepped backwards, standing calmly as the four guards aimed their weapons at the door. His breathing slowed down, awaiting the abomination.
Loud, thunderous footsteps began to sound. They quickened in pace, and almost immediately, the entrance to Deuclian’s office was obliterated as the largest abomination he’d ever seen barged in, roaring. It was at least ten feet tall, too big for this little room, but still maneuvering easily. Half its body was covered in bloody bones. It wasn’t a First Set Test Subject, it was… something different. Something new.
Bishop...
The four guards immediately opened fire, but the abomination simply ignored the beams. He picked up one of the guards and slammed him on the ground. His Hardsuit kept him safe, but he was still knocked out and fairly injured. It grabbed two more and slammed the both of them together, knocking them out as well. It grabbed the last one and slammed him down on Deuclian’s desk, leaving Deuclian to his own.
Deuclian stared at the abomination with a scowl as it glared at him. And at that point, he knew. He knew that Bishop was watching all of this. He looked at the beast and said, “Bishop, you son of a-“
The abomination quickly delivered a punch across Deuclian’s face, knocking him out and perhaps breaking his nose a bit. As he fell to the floor, the abomination grabbed his legs and began dragging him away.
But to where? God only knew.

"We're running out of time, Peter..." Exclaimed Sterling, who stood at the side of the doorway, blindly firing a handgun out into the hall, as more bullets flew towards us. We could hear the shouts and calls of guards who marched towards the room.
"I won't be long." I muttered, staring at the computer screen. The government officer we came here to get the information from had refused to talk, so he now lay, knocked out on the floor. I searched through his computer, trying to find the location of the main government facility.
"We need to go, now!" Shouted Sterling, throwing his handgun to the floor.
"Almost there... got it!" I said with relief. Luckily, the man had already logged in to his computer when we got here, so all I had to do was cycle through his files. Eventually I found it, which apparently was location a few miles of the east coast. Now, we needed to get out of here. "Okay, come on."
I stood on the other side of the door next to Sterling. "What now?" He asked, as bullets still flew through the open door.
"We need to get to the roof. The stairs are just outside this room. Create a force field to hold them back, then we will make a run for it." I ordered, and Sterling nodded.
He quickly moved infront of the door, creating a shield infront of him. The bullets hit it, doing nothing. He began to push the shield forward, pushing the guards back like some kind of riot shield. "Okay, go, Peter!"
I moved out of the room aswell, making a run towards the stair's to the roof. A few bullets flew towards me, but Sterling blocked most of them. Sterling moved with me, keeping us protected.
We reached the stairs, closing the door infront of us. Sterling stopped his shield. "Go, quickly." He shouted, as we both started to sprint up the metal staircase towards the roof.
I kicked the door open, letting Sterling and I out onto the roof. The sun was still shinning bright. We wasted no time in looking around the rooftop. We needed a way out of here, another staircase? A fire escape maybe? No, we got something better.
Infront of us was a landing pad, with a small helicopter resting on it. Through the glass window, we could see Tess, sitting ready to fly it. Where she learnt to fly a helicopter, I don't know, but i was glad she did.
We both ran, jumping inside the helicopter. Tess started it up, the blades starting to spin. Guards burst onto the roof, firing at the helicopter. It didn't matter, the helicopter lifted off.
We started to fly off, barely escaping.
