41 War Breaks Loose And A First Success

In the eyes of Porter Grieves.

Do you know what's worse than humans with guns? Machines with guns, of course, machines don't get the receptors of a human being they don't react as much as we do. They're built to kill, built to war, built to destroy and the age of robots starts with cybernetics... Surprise, surprise I'm one of them, we were built or enhanced to increase the chances of winning without damaging the numbers of troops. We're deemed efficient than most humans and now as we join in the secret war... What we saw was chaos. People with enhanced arms. "Sir, they have mechanical enhancements! What do we do!?" What I saw was a dangerous game of who's enhance and who's not... Can't tell by just seeing it I want to fight them. "Tom I know you're here... Kid you risked yourself for the war effort, you're crazy that's what I can say but to be honest we'll be needing as many men as much as we can." Tom looked at me with a very determined face so I began a short rebriefing. "Remember the shots guys, each shot only lasts three hours so make em count. And if you're injured you might need to force yourself to use the shot since Miss Hailey said that its peak effectiveness is when we are either injured or bleeding."

48 hours ago...

In the eyes of Hailey Kirkstoic.

What, the heck... Is this it?! I saw Tom running towards me with the result papers. "Ma'am! It was a success! The subject is now recovering smoothly." How can cyanide changed our odds... I replied to Tom. "I guess we did I suppose with all of the odds we've got now. Call Mr. Porter, now I got something that will help them in the war." Well with the cure about to be moved to the next stage now, time for the next step in my plan. Enhancing on the brink of death, it's risky and very dangerous if not applied with caution. Then all of the members entered my office after a few minutes. "Ma'am got any news now?" Said Porter. I replied. "Firstly the cure is now made so that released a lot of pressure under us so we can help with you this." I opened a case of special injections with their names etched into it. "This special booster medicine it'll help you with the waves of incoming enemies since all of you will be out there for more than 24 hours I guess. Also, this medicine only works with the designated names on it so it won't inject to someone who's not you. Now you ask how did I do it? I used some of your blood samples from your medical exams to customize the medicine to your body standards since the blood is the best possible read on how your organs can I effectively enhance your performance on the field. Now there's one requirement you have to use this when you're in the brink of death, I know sounds ridiculous but I formulate this booster kit to work with and the greatest hormone in your body... Adrenaline, I mean you could argue that you always pumped up and why not use it while in so. I'm not sure about that but based on my great-great-grandfather Neal Kirkstoic said 'The best effect of it is when you're in the brink of death you'll feel the medicine to its peak performance.' Since it's more on recovery and I am surprised about this when he said 'Let say the human body has a regenerative speed of 10. In about 40 seconds after the subject uses the injection during an intense bleed out the wound would gradually regenerate at speed 4 times of the original well I'm still on adjusting it while my theory is a regeneration speed of 6 times than normal. So a wound that usually heals in 3 months would just recover in about 10 minutes more or less. Well, that's still on theory but before I die I must test this with flying colors.' That was the last report from the medicine he placed before his death the following day... But since My Great-great-grandfather was successful in the earlier versions so I adopted some of the plausible ingredients that He said would be helpful for the success of increased recovery time of humans." Mr. Porter gave his word after. "So... Ma'am you're giving this special medicine specifically for my squad? I'm truly grateful for that but how does this stack up to fatigue?" I replied. "Oh yeah, anything that slows down the whole body gets either suppressed or removed to feel refreshed I don't know how my Great-great-grandfather made it like that but I guess we've been using this medicine all be it not the most aggressive version of it. Only to remove our tiredness while testing and it did give off good results with no side-effects what so ever." Tom stood up from his chair to give some of his words. "Ma'am, I mean Hailey. I've decided to join in Sir Porter's squad as a soldier." I replied. "I know you would say that my Brother gave me a heads up Tom." I handed Tom a special box. "Open that it's a special drug similar to the booster kit but it has a special mix to handle the medicine you took a week ago. I now know why that's unlabeled... Don't worry about that thing right now..." Mr. Porter replied. "Aight Kid you have a Tag name?" Tom replied. "Sir MK Sir!" I never knew that I would remember all of that... Tom... A name I now remember from years back. How could I forget that?

12 Hours into dispatched.

In Tom's Perspective.

'Tom... Don't die out there, ok?' Words I hear chilling down my spine... As I ride on a military vehicle towards the base in the middle east. We're out of 15 special squads that were called out to help in this secret war. No press, no nothing will come out and let the public know. We've been given orders to open fire at those who'll try to leak this to the public we don't want to have widespread across people. Fighting against the enemy of the world who holds the largest total of nuclear weapons combined. This person who doesn't have any nationality is an unusual one even though he has a French name. If we can win here in the desert we can find his main base of operations. But that will take a while before we can successfully do that. We did get a heads up that there is a possibility that he's here and he might use one of his missiles here, of course, we don't want that. And we'll do as much as we can to not let him use one of the missiles... Hailey... I'll make sure to go home in one piece.
