"Dr. Brischt, 006's heart and pulse rate are too slow for the mutation. I recommend to delay the mutation for him. He may suffer cardiac arrest on the way and we may lose him in the process." Dr. Harry informed Dr. Brischt who's in the monitoring room together with other doctors who's taking position behind each monitors displaying the candidates vitals.

"Push through the project. Tyler knows what he's into, he knows the consequences and he's here right now willing to go through all of this. This is our only way to show our grat.i.tude for having him here." Dr. Brischt signals Dr. Harry to go on.

Dr. Harry and the other doctors a.s.signed at the mutation room starts taking their position to initiate phase one of four. They all stand beside their respective candidate.

"Initiating phase 1, injecting supplements on 001."

"Injecting supplements on 002."

"Injecting supplements on 003." Till all 6 are injected supplements to build up their immune system.

"All vitals are normal, brainwaves are normal. 006's vitals are stabilizing." Dr. Spencer informs Dr. Brischt.

"Great. Now initiate phase two. Bring in the serums." Dr. Brischt checks the monitors every now and then.

The six doctors in the mutation room take turns on getting the serums. Each one of them are taking extra careful in handling the vial for it's too fragile and too priceless. There are only 7 vials and there's no room for mistakes or it will all be a waste. They are now extracting the serum and getting ready for phase two.

"Serums are extracted, preparing to execute phase two." Dr. Harry starts off phase two and the other doctors follows.

The neck's veins are the most suitable part to inject the serum. It's close to both the brain and the heart. Each vial contains different amount of serum content. The amount of serum matters depending on the person's physique. Once the serum enters the veins, it fuses with the red blood cell as it cycles throughout the body. Eveytime the heart pumps blood to the veins, it helps spread the serum evenly in the entire body. The serum then starts eating the red blood cells and is absorb by the body. This triggers a raging reaction, such unimaginable strength, bulging eyes that's turning b.l.o.o.d.y red, their veins are popping out and their fangs starts coming out and then retracts on their own. All six candidates are raging, their beds automatically holds them into place.

The doctors from the monitoring room witnessed such unstable vitals, all are in critical range even the brainwaves are indescribable. All of them are in great pain but are coping up except for Tyler. The serum did trigger cardiac arrest that puts him in great danger. Dr. Harry hurriedly informs Dr. Brischt that Tyler starts spitting blood.

"Dr. Brischt, 006 is having a cardiac arrest. Pulse rate are dropping, he can't hold it any longer." Dr. Harry's voice trembles.

"I'm coming over, I am well prepared that this may happen. But before that..." he connects a call to the viewing room where the generals are watching everything. "General Johanssen, I'll perform an open heart surgery on Tyler. I'll support his heart to evenly scatter the serum. I wanna ask for your permission."

"Do what you must." General Johanssen clenches his fist, he's dead worried but he must believe in his son. He will make it out alive.

"Okay General. Dr. Harry prepare medical tools I'm coming over." Dr. Brischt hurried to the mutation room, he first sterilized himself before going in. As he step foot inside, he can hear their screams, the fruit of his labor, years or reaearch and now, in this very room it's finally been executed.

He hurried to Tyler's side and starts operating on him. Every second, his pulse rate keeps slowing almost unnoticeable. But Dr. Brischt won't let this moment slip away. Not even a life be wasted nor the serum. They don't have anything to spare. As Tyler's heart becomes visible, he then grip it gently helping it pump. Slowly and gently, he pumps Tyler's heart carefully till his vitals stabilizes and pulse rate normalizes.

"Dr. Brischt, just keep it for a little longer. His vitals are slowly stabilizing, brainwaves normalizing." A doctor from the monitoring room informs Dr. Brischt.

As he keeps pumping Tyler's heart, he notices that his blood turned almost black, very thick in density and the veins are waving like crazy. He was truly amazed by the scene. When Tyler's vitals are stable he stopped pumping his heart and then something very phenomenal happened. As soon as he lets go his grip, Tyler's surgical wound regenerates and automatically closes. Healing him completely. Every doctors in the room saw it and were amazed.

"It seems like the serum is totally fused in the candidates bodies. Tyler on the other hand, didn't rage that much due to his weak heart. He's now stable and coping, but we must not celebrate yet till after 24 hours of surveillance." Dr. Brischt announces.

As the scene calms down, all six candidates seems exhausted and weary. They all ended up in deep sleep. The after crew takes them to their rooms and securely locked them up just in case they rage again. They will monitor them, they will do rounds every 30 mins to check their body's progress. The mutation isn't finish yet, phase three, the final phase will judge the whole project. Whether it's a great success or a painful failure. Everyone takes a rest after a tiring day. The Generals are a bit relieved for a moment yet are suffocated by waiting for the final verdict. General Johanssen's still glad to know Tyler surpa.s.sed the first two phases without giving up he must not give up hope in this project as well.

On the other hand, someone from the monitoring room secretly leaves the room and head to her room. She then lets out a little device that will let her pa.s.s through the jamming system of the facility that prohibits outside calls. She reported everything that happened that day over the phone and asked for further instructions.

"Sir, so far everything went smoothly except for the little scene General Johanssen's son caused. Everyone knows that he's weak yet agreed on letting him go through all this. If he died the serum would've been wasted."

"Is that so?" The man on the other end seems irritated.

"Good thing Dr. Brischt is a very talented doctor. He managed to help him and eases his pain on the process. Also, I witness something very peculiar. Once the serum fuses successfully, one can regenerate and heals up automatically. It's as good as being immortal." She reported excitedly.

"That's very fascinating to hear. So about the serum."

"About that, I know there's 7 vials in total. 7 vials that are successfully made by Dr. Brischt. Six have been used up so only a vial left. I need to dig out more information on its current location. Seems like Dr. Brischt kept it close to him. Give me time to find it and I'll make sure I can get it away with me."

"Take all the time you need, just make sure to update me on tomorrow's progress."

"I will, also, the generals are keeping a close eye on their subjects. All of them are breathless as time pa.s.ses by. As of now, there are still no sign of movement from any of them. Their brains are too weary that it shutdown. It needs more than a day to gain back their strengths."

"If that's the case, just keep monitoring their progress, I want a detailed report about the project's progress. This is a very important matter and you know that. We both will rule the world, that's only gonna happen if I can get my hands on the last vial."

"I know well sir, I won't go back empty handed. I will make sure that I can get a hold on that vial and deliver it immediately to you."

"That's good to know, just be cautious. There are eyes everywhere and trust no one but yourself."

"I will sir. I don't wanna trigger any suspicion from the other doctors, especially Dr. Brischt. I need to gain his trust and make him think I'm loyal to him. The Generals aren't really a threat for they don't know what's going on unless it's fed to them."

"Still, staying safe isn't hard to do. Just keep your guards up and obey everything I tell you."

"I will be glad to obey sir, I miss you already."

"I miss you too hun, you're doing great so far just keep it going and we'll be together again." She then hangs up the phone, she must take extra caution or somebody will find out that she's secretly taking down the facility's jamming system. She then takes a short rest before going back to the monitoring room.

As the night falls, the quiet night was started by a struck of lightning. A sudden gust of wind and pouring rain. The weather seems to know what lies ahead. From a pleasant day to an eventful night, everyone's keft off-guard. A tragic night awaits to awaken. No one's even prepared to deal with it. Everyone's still full of positivity that the project is a success. It may be is, but still, who knows. As long as there's no sign of danger, they won't know what hit them. Success or not, someone's willing to kill for power. Who's it gonna be, no one's got a clue. Tristan da Cunha may be an isolated island far from the mainlands almost invincible from the radar. An island where it all started. It will all start from there.
