Earth's military was built of some of the finest people, cities, and states Earth had to offer. These people were the one's who gave their sweat, blood, and lives for the better of those they came from. Strong, selfless people, whose only desire was to defend the places they called home, and the people who lived in them.

In this military, like all militaries, there was a special group of people, able, and willing, to do things that made even the most experienced soldiers cringe.

It began as a special unite, an elite group whose original purpose was to go beyond conventional limits, beyond what common men could do.

The military wanted, more like needed, a group of people who could do what others could not, what the world didn't need to know about. The intent was innocent enough, even well meant. Programs were setup to create advanced soldiers. These men and women trained harder, and were often selected from the best of the best the military had to offer.

The program wasn't without risk. Some failed, others broke, a few succeeded.

The government saw greater potential though, for more. What little success there was opened doors for the possibility of more, better, with a little tweaking. So, they hijacked the program from the military. Simply training men and women to be the best that they could be was no longer enough. Scientists were brought in to help develop a super soldier. Experiments were ran on people, new genetic material introduced to help build upon the humanoid structure and make it something more.

With the desire for better soldiers, stronger, faster, more lethal, they perverted what had been an innocent attempt at a better military.

When it became clear that simply using soldiers would never go without notice, they began taking people off of the street. The homeless, lost, children with no one to claim, people no one would miss. Sometimes they even created their subjects from scratch, test tube babies if you will. Beings that they could mold into something they wanted from the start. Others went as far as taking children away from their wards with false accusations, though these were rare cases.

These people were trained, broken even, and rebuilt. Some could even consider it torture. It was with these people, through experiments, physical, and mental, scientific even, that they created beings stronger then any other human, faster, more intelligent, far more deadly. Soldiers that were capable of a wide array of combat skills, weapons technique, intelligence gathering. Short of killing, they were said to be unstoppable.

It was these men and women, created by a corrupt area of the government, that would be used to do the dirty work no one would ever know about.
