CHAPTER 3

Stranger

"New recruit?".......

"Going to be.....strongest I have ever...."

"Incredible....brain functions....at 100%"

"Will lead us....victory"

Opening my eyes slowly, all I could see was a green glow, which slowly settled into a room, on the other side of what looked like curved glass. Where was I? My thoughts felt sluggish and I had trouble concentrating as I gazed out of the glass. I focused on two figures who were looking in on me from outside the glass. They were not very clear, but I could make out one was wearing a white coat, a scientist I assumed.

The other wore what looked like a business suit, all black with a white shirt. His hair was also jet black, with what looked like black feathers knotted and intertwined in it. The eyes got me though, yellow, with almost an ethereal glow to them. This stranger stared straight at me, or so I thought, as it was quite hard making him out though the glass and glow. His eyes held a haughty, arrogant look to them, as if he could care less for this place and anything it contained. Those eyes creeped me out and pissed me off in equal measures. As I thought this, an alien feeling started to build in my chest. The two strangers finished a conversation and walked out of the room, which I had assumed to be a lab at this point.

Why was I here? How had I got here? I could remember nothing, and with these thoughts circling my mind, I started to get more and more frustrated that no answers were forthcoming. The feeling in my chest continued to grow and the air around me started trembling. Anger filled me, raging to be let out, anger at having no memories or answers, anger at being trapped in this glass prison, and anger at that yellow eyed stranger for being able to walk away.

The glass started vibrating, and small tremors could be felt through the floor. Outside the glass, the room had flooded with men in white coats, all panicking as they tried to figure out what was going on. The water around me started to heat up, and I could now her muffled shouts coming through the glass.

"What the hell is going on!?"

"Power levels at...200%.....300%.....500%....off the charts!"

"Is the subject causing it?"

"Sedate him!"

Crack were beginning to show in the walls, dust fell from the ceiling as the pressure in my chest grew, until I felt something warm trickle into my veins and I started to lose my grip on consciousness, and the darkness claimed me once more.

Outside the pod, two of the head scientists were having a frantic discussion.

"What the hell was that?"

"Im not sure what it was, but it was the subject who was causing it"

"The readings on all the computers and instruments were going mental, they literally couldnt keep up with the power output"

A third scientist ran over looking flustered and clutching a wad of papers.

"Gentlemen, according to the readouts, the particles of everything in this room all started vibrating at a massive rate, and were being put under incredible stress, almost to breaking point. But the amazing thing is, they were being influenced by an outside source!

A puzzled look came over one of the men.

"But what on earth could have caused the particles of everything to react in that way? If just one of those billions of atoms and particles had broken...."

The three scientists looked at one another, the slowly lifted their gazes to the figure supended in a glowing green liquid above them.

"He is going to be our crowning glory, nothing is going to be able to stop that monster" said the third scientist with an awed look on his face.

"Well, he is going to be the commander to the most lethal force ever created, he needs to be powerful enough to hold them in check"

He walked forwards, until he came to the bottem of the glass tube. Clasping his hands behind his back and staring into the face of the young man who was to become their leader, he whispered "It seems you may live up to the test name we gave you, Subject Alpha Omega"
