The Spartan II Program. An attempt to create genetically modified super soldiers to defend against the Nova. 75 candidates were selected.
Twelve were crippled.
Thirty were dead.
In the end only 33 candidates survived augmentation. Myself amongst them. Those who survived, were smarter, stronger, faster, and overall even more deadly. And outfitted with state of the art armor that turned each of them into killing machines. And the military decided to loan one of their Spartan IIs to a place called West Genetics. That Spartan being me. It shouldn't be a problem because I thought I had lost most of my humanity. But, turns out, I had a lot left in me.
Jace POV
Right now I'm being transported via armored vehicle to the LZ where the ship that's going to take me to West Genetics will land.
Driver: Remember! You're being sent as a permanent addition to their ranks! You won't have to attend their classes if you don't want to! And try not to cause any trouble!
Jace: Understood.
Driver: We're here!
The transport stops and I get off since this is my stop.

Driver: Good luck Spartan!
He then drives away as I walk into the ship that's taking me to West genetics and meet a girl who I sit across from as the ship takes off.
Chiffon: Hello! I am Chiffon Fairchild, the Student Council President.
Jace: Spartan Jace-157.
Chiffon: I have to say Jace, you're not at all what I expected. I've only heard rumors but seeing a Spartan in person is a new experience.
I simply nod to her.
Chiffon: Right, let's go through some things since you're going to be a permanent addition to West Genetics.
Jace: Yes Ma'am.
Chiffon: In their second year, Pandora choose their partners, Limiters, from amongst the undergraduates.
Jace: Undergraduates huh, why.
Chiffon: Because of... the Ereinbar.
I tilt my head at the mention of "the Ereinbar." So she gets out a remote and presses to project a hologram next to us.
Chiffon: A little-understood sensory organ, buried much deeper than the neurons, that controls the five senses. In battle, Pandora and Limiters share the Ereinbar, making their five senses one. The highest compatibility rate is with Pandora and younger males. Therefore, Limiters tend to be male underclassmen. When a Pandora and Limiter share the Ereinbar, it's called the Ereinbar set.
Then more information gets displayed as I study it a little as Chiffon talks.
Chiffon: The Nova's Freezing can be neutralized using the Ereinbar Set. That can secure a Pandora's freedom to act within Nova Range. Fighting the Nova is always a dance with death. And yet we must fight.
Jace: Everything dies eventually.
Chiffon: ...R-right.
Jace: What is it.
Chiffon: N-nothing, I just didn't expect you to say such a phrase.
I stare at her for a moment then look out the glass. Only to see we're here, and the ship is descending to a landing zone.
Chiffon: We're here.
I nod and the plane door opens and Chiffon gets out first.
Ticy: Welcome back Ma'am!
Chiffon: Thank you!
Then when I come out she stares at me.
Ticy: Uh, Welcome to West Genetics!
I then walk near her as she looks at me nervous.
Chiffon: That's Ticy Fenir. She's one of the Student Council members.
Ticy: N-nice to meet you!
She bows to me as I stare at her and nod.
Chiffon: Don't worry Ticy he's alright!
Ticy: G-good to know..
Then I hear and see a loud explosion-like sound and turn to the dust in the distance. Thinking nothing major about it, I walk with Chiffon and Ticy. As we walk around West Genetics they give me a tour.
Chiffon: The training area up above is used for Carnivals--
Without letting her finish her sentence glass breaks and I turn in the direction of the sound. Only to see a Pandora with red hair who looks like she's losing a mock battle telling by her ripped clothing.
Ganessa: What's the point of getting stronger if she's only gonna get strong as well?
She then turns to me and her first instinct is to cover herself up with her hands.
Ganessa: What are you staring at?! Who even are you?!
More glass breaks as I see another Pandora drop down in front of us, a blonde one. But the moment I get a good look at her, a few vague... memories. Start to flood my head and I put a hand on my helmet.
Ticy: Is everything alright?
I ignored her question as I make my way towards her.
Ticy: What are you doing?!
Chiffon: Oh no...
I grab her by the shoulder, which surprises her judging by the gasp she made, and made her look at me. That face, why does it look so familiar? She looks up at me blushing as I look at her and thinking why she looks so familiar. But I jump back into reality as I hear the sounds of chains. Then I look behind me to see the Pandora shooting chains at us. I was about to reach for my magnum but a chain wraps around me to restrain me, which granted her enough time to hit the blonde one with one of her chains. Causing her to lose. But in the midst of all that, I still have one question in my head.
