In the future there will be super weapons. Weapons that we won't be able to defend against. Our soldiers will not make the cut they way they are now. We will have to mutate their DNA in order to be able to defend ourselves. These warriors or soldiers will have their DNA combined with a creature that is vicious, ruthless, and will not stop 'till victory is achieved. The creature of choice is the wolf.
The selection of the wolf is so then they will think together and be able to easily communicate to one another. They will think as one and never hesitate if one of them dies. Scientists will have to mutate selected rulers to control their assigned packs. Some packs will be as large as twelve while others will be six or seven. Those with weak minds will have packs of six to seven or maybe less. The strong minded will have at least nine with no more than twelve. Scientists have to mutate the leaders DNA to be able to have mind control. With the mind control they will easily control the wolf soldiers due to the fact that the most soldiers will be brainwashed. They are intentionally brainwashed because they will not be able to retaliate. That is where the story begins.
When Samuel turned twelve the authorities came to take him from his family so he could become part of the Soldier Army. He knew that this would soon come shortly after he turned twelve, but he didn't think they would come the day after his birthday. If he turned down the offer he and his family would be killed and they would save him for last. They would save him for last so he could see what he did to his family. Samuel already knew the authorities would soon come but was still surprised whenever they showed up at his door. Already? Samuel thought. Just one more day. But Samuel already knew that that one more day would never come. Away he went with the authorities to a place that Samuel had never seen before. It was strange. There was white everywhere with a hint of a lime green every now and then. Metal beds? Those can't be comfortable. You want me to lay down on that? Oh boy. Whatever I might as well get this over with. As soon as he layed back restraints everywhere. They appeared out of nowhere and now... needles. Why needles? Why all these restraints? What is going to happen? So many questions running through his brain when everything turned black.
What the heck? Where did all the white go? He looked down at his body and saw himself. A mirror? He creeped towards and touched his body. What the heck is going on? If that is me and I'm me... what happened? "So many questions boy," an inscrutable voice called out, "just relax and everything will be fine." Samuel panicked. He can read my thoughts? "Oh yes Sammy I can read all of your thoughts. You are making wonderful progress my dear boy." Progress? What is he-"Yes Sammy progress. You are making splendid progress with the DNA grafting. I am already in your brain reading your thoughts." ....Nothing. ....Nothing again. What the? Why can't I-"Talk? Boy you really are going to be easy to control if you are this stupid. Don't you realize where you are? I mean really just looking at your shell-- I mean body should explain everything." Oh geez. What to do? Am I d- "Boy you really are stupid. No you are not dead. You are having an out-of-body experience. This is what is expected. After all those drugs they gave you. And it helps me get a feel for my members. Members? "Ah finally a reasonably good question. Yes little Sammy members. Or as you will refer your new family. I am the mind behind the muscles. You are just another muscle. You will start at the bottom of the pack. Then you will have to earn your rank in fights. The higher the rank the better soldier and stronger you become. The stronger you become the longer we all survive. Our pack is only as strong as the weakest link. You don't want to be the weakest link. And furthermore..." Samuel strained to hear the mind had to say but it was too late.
He was back and there were extremely bright lights all around him. What is that smell? He could smell the sweat dripping off the doctor six floors above him. Another smell? "Yes Sammy." Oh my. The mind. "I'm on my way now to get a look at how much you changed boy. Don't disappoint me like earlier." That was real? What the? Sam looked at his arms to find them covered with hair. I grew up that quick? "Samuel," another mysterious voice called out, "don't worry about that it is all part of the grafting." Grafting? Oh yeah like the mind was saying DNA grafting. With what though? "Your DNA was grafted with a wolf." The mind appeared in the doorway. "Good to see you Sammy. And yes I am satisfied with the results." The lady did some more tests on me and then the mind took me away. "By the way the name is Master Cornelius." Cornelius-SLAP! "Master Cornelius. Ignorance and stubbornness will not be tolerated. You will show me respect or pay the price." Sammy knew better than to think near him. But boy oh boy was Sam in for it.
They arrived at the Hole. The Hole is where all 'soldiers' stay. They are not quite soldiers yet, but will be trained to become soldiers all the time except when fighting. Which they could engage in a fight at any moment with someone or something. "You start your training now with the pack. This," Master Cornelius walked over to," this man is Alpha Ace. he is the leader of the pack. he will train you and the eleven others. Enjoy."
WHAM! Alpha Ace punched Sammy right in the face. Sammy hit the floor but remained conscious. "You will show Master Cornelius respect. Don't make the same mistake twice. Get in line now!" Well. That went perfect. At least he can't read my mind. "Training begins now. You will fight and learn how to take down your opponent or be taken down." I had the first fight with Alpha. Why does he have to pick on me? What did I do? Alpha gave Sam a look of death and struck at Sam like a snake. Hitting the floor was relief compared to Alphas punch. Alpha was aiming all his punches to Sams face. No escape for this punishment. I have to fight back. Getting shakily back on his feet Sam looked Alpha right in the eyes. He just made a horrible mistake. Alpha lashed out with a flurry of punches yet Sam avoided all of them. Alpha lit up like a match. Alpha ran at Sam with a fist ready to swing and Sam clocked Alpha. The room was dead silent as Alphas gaze returned. He was shocked just like everyone else including Sam. WHAM! WHAM! CRUNCH! Alpha broke Sam's jaw like a toothpick and Sam stayed down. The fight ended with spit falling like rain on his face. "Next time," Alpha growled, "stay down." Alpha leaned down to Sam's ear and whispered, "Don't you dare challenge me. I will end you." With that Alpha ripped Sam's shirt off and carved a chain link into his chest. "You may not be the weakest link but you will be put into your place."
Weeks and weeks went by and the fighting was constant. Sam ended up being an Omega. There were plenty of Omegas but Sam was the top Omega. Everyone caught whiff of a strange clean smell and stood attention. Master Cornelius had arrived with yet another boy. But this was no ordinary boy it was Sam's brother Theodore. "This," Master Cornelius introduced, "is Theodore." Master Cornelius showed Theo Alpha Ace. "This is your leader. You will train with him and the twelve others." Master Cornelius walked away and Alpha clocked Theo. "No!" Sammy was furious. He started fighting Alpha but Alpha ended it quickly. "You," punching Sam in the face, "dare disrespect me?! I am Alpha. You are an Omega and he," grabbing Theo, "is fresh meat. A rookie. You," gesturing at Theo, "will respect Master Cornelius." And with that Alpha sucker punched Theo. Red from embarrassment Theo shoved Sam out of the way. "I don't need your help Sam." With that Theo got back in line and Alpha had training start back up.
About a month later Master Cornelius returned with news that an event was to happen in the lunch area around noon for Overlord Xavier. All packs were to arrive in the lunch area at eleven. Once there they were to await further instructions. They were also to take the off and relax. Eleven could not of come by any sooner. It felt like they were waiting for days instead of a mere hour. Sam was like a bomb ready to go off at any moment. With fighting basically nonstop and stopping for a couple of hours maybe the whole day it was going to be hard. Finally the time came when they had to leave. They arrived at the lunch area a few minutes early and sat themselves. Soon the place was like a bar crawling around with a bunch of people who have no clue what is going on. Every pack Master was there along with a strange man. The strange man had no scent and had guards hidden but not hidden well. Sam quickly figured that the man had to be Overlord Xavier. "Attention," Master Cornelius was speaking, "as you all may know this is Overlord Xavier. He is here to select a pack to lead a special mission. The pack will be decided by having two members from the same pack fight one another. The pack Masters will select two to fight and then Overlord Xavier will decide which pack will get the mission. The first pack to fight will be Master Juans pack." With that the fights had begun and each pack Master chose the next one to fight. The fighting continued and finally Master Cornelius was chosen. He called the whole pack up and first selected Alpha Ace. His next choice was Omega Sam. The pack dispersed and Master Cornelius pulled Omega Sam aside. "Kill him. I know you can do it." And with that they were led to the fighting area. The fight began and Alpha came swinging and had Sam on the ground. He got down into his face and whispered, "Stay down and this can be over." WHAM! Sam clocked Alpha and bull rushed him. Nothing was going to stop Sam now. All Sam saw was red. He was furious and taking down Alpha. WHAM! Sam spoke too soon. Alpha was in his face pulverizing him. But Sam got a lucky punch in and dropped Alpha. Alpha got up but it was too late. This time Sam was in his face and tenderizing his face. Sam paused and whispered, "Now do you give up?" "I will never back down to you Omega." And Alpha dug his claws into Sam's shoulder to attempt to get Sam to loosen his grip-CRUNCH! THUD! THUD! Alpha was thrown like a rag doll and Sam was doused in blood. He walked out and headed back to his packs room. he didn't care if it was disrespectful or not. he knew that his pack had just won the special mission. he also knew that he would have to assume the role as Alpha.
