Thousands were genetically enhanced. Five got lucky. In the distant future, a group calling themselves Regnisquians decided that the world could no longer live harmoniously for as long as there were separate countries causing conflict with each other. Forcibly, they captured and united all the countries of Earth to form one kingdom; Regnisque . The King of this new land, unable to trust the humans of which he governs, decided he would need an army to protect him and to enforce his laws and employs a team of scientists to genetically enhance the DNA of a sample of the teenage population. His goal, to create an army of supernatural beings that would be strong enough to defend the kingdom and stop anyone with intentions of dismantling it or disobeying it's laws. Believing the genetic enhancements have failed and that creating supernatural beings would be impossible, he disbanded the teenage subjects.

"It's human nature. It's instinct to survive, no matter the cost." The world has fallen into desolation. The apocalypse has already started and finished, leaving some of the surviving ones with strange powers and mysterious scars. The world has ended, according to some, and is now in a state of rebirth. Others say it hasn't ended yet and that it's only going to get worse. The remaining people have grouped together in packs and gangs, raiding the desolate cities and avoiding the ones called the Destroyers, who capture and torture the remaining survivors. No one is safe. One fifteen year old boy knows this better than anyone. He and his older sister lived together, sticking to the dark alleys of their abandoned city, and survived for years after the apocalypse, until the Destroyers came and took her away, reigning terror on the few who remained in the city. The boy, desperate to find someone to help him save his sister, leaves the city and finds one of the youngest cooperative packs in North America, called the Raiders, comprised of unwanted individuals with the strange powers left from the destruction of years past. Their leader, a destructive insomniac, promises to help him in return for the skills and usefulness this young boy seems to possess, but something disrupting sends waves of unease through the Raiders, something about a forgotten past and talk of a mutiny. "Maybe there's more to life than just surviving." ... Rated C for Caution. Though it's rated mature, there is no bad language or vivid descriptions of sexual contact. It does have very strong themes. Please read the two important notices in the intro. Read at your own risk. Thanks.
