FBI BODY ANALYSIS UNIT OPERATION ROOM. NEXT DAY.

Ten people stood in front of the two bodies on display. On the right side was the body of a dying lycan and on the other was the deceased body of Valentina's father, Darris Jackson.

"The lycan to the right is what we like to call 'common lycans'", Mr.Mito explained as he walked around the lab table sticking needles into the lycan's skin. Mr.Mito was short and skinny almost sickly but despite that fact he was well respected in the agent community being the top body analysis doctor.

Standing in front of the nine other people which consisted of the director, Valentina, and various doctors, Mr.Mito continued to explain 'lycan 101' as he called it. "There are four types of lycans we have ran into over the years. Elders, originals, hybrids, and commons."

"Commons are like the ones you see here, they were humans that were bitten. They are the weakest kind of lycan and a simple silver bullet will bring them down, their eyes are usually yellow, and can only turn when a full moon is in the sky. They kill only when commanded. Hybrids are born from a lycan mother or father and a human so they are half-lycan and half-human. They are the second strongest kind of lycan, able to take many silver bullets before being brought down and have curved claws able to rip flesh straight off instead of just cutting. These lycans can turn into a stronger and taller form of themselves but cannot turn into full lycan form because of their half-human side. Their eyes are usually orange and they kill for fun. They are rare, but do exsist. Do you understand so far?"

With a few nods in the group Mr.Mito continued," One of the most dangerous types of lycan are originals. Full blooded lycans that can only be taken down with pure silver bullets. These lycans can turn at will into monstrous beast and lack any emotion or self-control. Their eyes are usually red, they heal instantly, and they also kill for fun. Because of this, we fail to bring down most original lycans and only take out commons."

"But then there are the elders. These lycans are full beasts and cannot transform into a human form. Usually they have all black eyes but a few have been reported to have blue eyes as well. Other than that not many things are known about these lycans except they kill only when threatened and are respected by every other type of lycan.

With a dramatic pause while facing the crowd Mr.Mito announced,

"Today, we are going to turn Mr.Darris Jackson over on the left into a hybrid lycan."

50 MINUTES BEFORE. SAME DAY.

"There is a way that we can save your father", the director announced as he and Valentina sat back in his office, this time with Nico in the seat next to Valentina. "It is called "Lycan Diffusion. Taking lycan DNA and transferring it into human DNA. The last two test subjects we had died, but since your father is dead already there will be no risk, we just need your permission to do the tests.

"No."

"Excuse me?", the director asked with a raised eyebrow and leaned over his desk. "There is a chance your father could live again, and you say 'no'?"

"Correct", Valentina answered and stood up from out of her chair with Nico right behind her. "I won't let my father, who died less than 24 hours ago, be used as some test subject, as some government weapon! I should punch you for even suggesting that idea to me."

With that she walked out abruptly and slammed the door leaving Nico and the director alone in his office.

That was all the time he needed.

Lunging over the wooden desk and grabbing the director by the shirt, Nico swung him into the nearby glass casing filled with trophies and watched as the director struggled to get up from the huge blow. Walking slowly toward him, Nico picked up a large glass shard that had fallen and stabbed it into the directors chest making him cough up thick red blood all over his white clothing.

"What the hell are you doing", Nico growled and extended his curved claws, wrapping them around the directors neck and dragging him out from the glass case, throwing him onto the wooden desk. "Her father is suppose to be DEAD you idiot! Are you trying to save his life?!"

With his glowing orange eyes, Nico stood on top of the director and put his foot into his chest forcing the glass shard deeper until the he stopped moving and his yellow eyes began to dim.

"The only reason I'm not killing you is because we still need you to take over the FBI. But once that is done.....", Nico murmured jumping off the desk and walking toward the door. "Get your ass up and clean this place up. And if you don't call off the operation, well, you know." With a flick of his wrist, five curved claws erupted from his fingers and he grinned widely.

Closing the door behind him and licking the blood off his fingers, Nico scanned the hallway to see if any witnesses were around but it seemed to be clear. Many of the agents seemed to be doing field work or in their offices.

"Perfect", he muttered and started to look for Valentina, he needed to convince her not to approve the operation.

...........................................................................................................

CURRENT TIME. INSIDE FBI BODY ANALYSIS UNIT OPERATION ROOM. SAME DAY.

"Agent Valentina, are you sure you want to go ahead with the operation", Mr.Mito asked as everyone else in the room waited for her response.

"Yes."

After some thought and self-evaluation, Valentina finally agreed with the risky operation.

With that, each doctor went straight to work clearing everyone who was irrelevant out of the room including Valentina and the director and closed the air-tight door behind them. It was time to operate.

"Do you think that they'll be able to save him?", Valentina asked as she and the director sat outside the operation room. Looking over towards him she could notice his face was a lot more sweaty and he appeared to have trouble breathing. Looking around the room she spotted Nico in the corner staring coldly at the director though the latter was too nervous to notice.

"Did you hear me?"

Snapping out of his apparent daze, the director looked toward her and nodded, silently aware that Nico was staring at him. It was the last night he was going to be alive. It was time for her to know the truth.

In the office, Nico had made it very clear that if the director didn't call off the operation then he would die that night but it no longer mattered. The lycans needed to be stopped and he didn't ask to be bitten, he had always hated being one of them and had always fought against his instincts to kill, able to humanize himself and move up through the FBI.

"Listen, Valentina. I need to tell you something very important and as soon as you hear this I need you to run", he responded quietly and turned toward Valentina who stared back in confusion.

"This place, it's not what you think it is. It's-"

"Valentina, can I talk to you for a second", Nico interrupted suddenly appearing in front of the two. "It's very important."

Nodding her head, Valentin got up and Nico pointed to a table on the far side of the room where she sat down. Moving closer to the director, Nico grinned and whispered," Do not to and hide. Do not try and run. Tonight you will die."
