The last Immortal

Prologue

What would you do if you were immortal?

There is always the same visions of living in luxury and enjoying life as forever young... but that wears out pretty quickly... especially when you aren't invulnerable, you just heal from anything (even death).

I grew up as an orphan and i was always slightly stronger and faster than the other kids. By the age of ten i had learnt to slow myself down when racing the other kids, and act weaker in tug-of-war, or else i got strange looks from the nuns.

When i turned thirteen i was sent to a special military school, and i fell in love with the training. I was always givin disapproving looks because i was a girl, and back then women were not considered fighters, they were housewives. The Lieutenant Generals thought that i was older than i was due to my military ability, speed, strength and agility so i was moved to the higher levels of training in a special facility called Ariet . An experimental group of enhanced soldiers... Female and Male called project Aries.

We were never tested on with drugs or anything, we were just trained harder and more intensely, sleeping every second day and given minimum rations of food. We were trained to be machines and the ones who survived the training were placed in an elite team called : Capra-Hircus.

I was Eighteen when i was assigned to my first team. There were five of us on my original team... Saskia, Darrel, Markus, Diego And me Scarlet. We had trained together for years and worked like a well oiled machine. Sent in as a clean up and rescue team after the marines or special corps missions.

It was only after The Incident when new laws were passed that they disbanded project Aries. All members of this project were declared missing in action.
