In a world where halfbreeds, humans born with traits of animals, occur in less than 1% of the human population, government officials collect the children to conduct research and do experiments on them. In a very specific and detailed procedure done to test the endurance of halfbreeds, more than half of them die in one way or another. The only ones left are the originals. The catch? The originals become more powerful and evolved, they could easily be turned into disposable weapons to help worm the government to the top of the social hierarchy. <contains violence and genetic engineering> [more description in prologue]
