Cy1789
In the distant future, humanity has accomplished what was once deemed impossible, creating artificial life. The science community celebrated this once impossible feat, for they believed it was the beginning of something great. But unfortunately, they would soon find that this was nothing but a mistake. A year after the birth of what later would be called the Láthos, humanity's creation began to believe that their creators were nothing but a virus. That train of thought soon sparked a long bloody conflict between creator and created. Years passed as the fighting raged on, and the human race was brought to the brink of extinction. Finally, after they thought all hope was lost, the world's top research specialists found a way to end that losing war. The specialists discovered a genetic flaw in the Láthos, which, if exploited, could shut down their mental and physical functions. Using that discovery, they created a bioweapon. When activated, the device would disperse a particular chemical into the atmosphere, causing their misfit creations to enter a state of hibernation but leaving humanity unaffected. After several weeks of testing, they commenced the operation, the tension high as that was humanity's last chance. Fortunately, soon after activating the bioweapon, the Láthos all fell into a deep slumber, signifying the end of the long war. The remnants of humanity celebrated, for they believed this was the end but was it?
