Overtime

For more than half their lives, five boys and one girl have been excluded from the rest of society, only known as the members Project Overtime. In a desire to experiment, The Professor took in orphan children and equipped them with technological replacements for various limbs and organs, hoping to perfect what could be the peak of the human species for fighting crime.

Having been perfected for thirteen years, the final stage of their experiment has arrived: their implementation. If the six are able to merge with normal human life, all while demonstrating how successful and operational their abilities are, their experiment will be deemed a success and thus will make The Professor millions.

What better way to test the exposure to normal life than by being throw into the most criminally charged high school in the district: the ultimate test of their loyalty and capability.

Merging with the outside world has proven to be difficult after years of captivity, but The Overtimers refuse to let the mission of their lives be deemed a failure. After all, they're always working overtime if they've never been off the clock.
