True Heroes: Book 1- The Chimera Project

(Hey guys! Sorry I've been gone so long, college kept me really damn busy. Some days I tried to upload something on here, but my laptop wouldn't do it. So I had to wait till Christmas Break to work on my stories on the computer at my folks' house. But I'm sorry it's been so long, I hope I can make it up to you all. I will also try to be working on another Ultimate Spider-Man story alongside this one; hopefully I can get that one done before I head back to college. This one I doubt will be finished by then. But I hope what I get done will be good enough till I get to continue it. This story is going to be a 'series' involving a character I entirely made up (OC), I hope this goes well!)

Disclaimer: I don't own Young Justice or any of the characters except my OC and the story, all other credits go to their respected owners. I hope you all enjoy the story!

Prologue

Fire, fire rose and roared throughout the building. The scientists ran screaming around as the flames raced through the room. The men were completely horrified by this unwelcome surprise.

"NO! NO! NO! No, no, no, no, NOO! How could this happen?!" A particularly large man bellowed with furious anger.

He turned his head to look around the burning laboratory to see all his work destroyed. Years of development, research, and experimentation was no gone.

"WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED?!" Another guttural voice screeched.

The man turned to see his partner, one he reluctantly agreed to work with. They despised each other, but knew they had to help each other to achieve their goals. She wasn't pleased with the results either.

"Where is the test subject?!" She growled. "…SHIT! GONE! IT'S GONE!" He cried out. "How could you be so stupid?!" She snarled. "IT WAS SEDATED!" He hissed.

It all became clear now; their test subject must have gotten loose and caused the destruction of the lab. Recently it had become more aggressive and powerful with each passing day. The man thought he had sedated it enough to keep it docile for enough time to continue testing. They were getting close to a breakthrough in their work.

"Where is it?!" She snarled. "Dead probably, it couldn't survive the flames, and the ceiling will soon collapse." He hissed. "We need to get out of here, and restart the project! We only have a limited amount of time!" She snarled. "I know that!" He growled.

His eyes fell on something surprising. A vile of the subject's blood! There was still hope! He rushed over and grabbed it.

"Yes! We still have something to work with! The DNA is all in here! We can fix the mistakes you made!" He laughed triumphantly. "MY MISTAKES?! YOU WERE…We can argue about this later! We need to get out of here! GO!" She growled. "For the second time, I agree with you!" He grunted.

They and the scientists ran for the exit. On a hill overlooking the collapsing building, a pair of luminous emerald green eyes shone from the darkness of the wooded hill of the forest. A low growling rumbled from the shadows. The shadowy figure turned and ran into the forest.
