Rifts one
Chapter one: the beginning
Life was simple. There's no other way to describe it I had a stable job a great wife and two amazing kids. The year was 2098. I worked as a scientist in a top secret lab in Nevada otherwise known as area 51. I had worked here for ten years and knew virtually nothing about any other department. The security was so tight they even went as far as to blindfold me when I was escorted inside the building. I had been hired straight out of college not to toot my own horn or anything but I was a science prodigy I amazed people who had studied for decades and decades Tons of important inventions and ideas all came from me. But after college all that changed after I signed up with the military I spent my time inventing projects for them. There was one huge perk for this job the pay was phenomenal almost 5 million a year. I lived in a huge house drove one of those fancy sport cars and loved my wife. Isabella how I loved her it had been almost a week since I had seen here since I was staying here with everyone else to finish this project I wasn't even allowed to talk to her security was strict to say the least. My team consisted of four other people. I was the project head then my best friend Wayne Johnson he was incredibly. Smart followed by Dean, Angela and Stacey. It was around 3 in the morning and I was still on the computer furiously typing and calculating results. There was only me and Wayne. I said "feel free to go it doesn't seem like you're doing much" He laughed and said "To be honest I'm worried" "about what I said what are you some kind of Jedi now or something" "no I just have a bad feeling tonight I can't sleep there's something wrong in the air I can feel it". "Your just paranoid you better go get some rest don't worry we'll be fine. I walked off into the testing lab and pulled the needle out and injected the monkey in the vain it begins to screech and I recorded the results. I heard a faint sound almost sounding like alarms. The monkey was screaming even more and then it just died it exploded more like it. I recorded more results I decided to do one more thing before I went to bed I checked the next direction.
Inject dead body frozen in cryogenic chamber. Inject needle labeled lab experiment project Fire man. Inject patient 17.
Signed President John Dustin
Honestly I found it weird how the president gave me personal directions but it also made me feel important. As I walked into the cyro room I pulled out the needle and prepared to inject the body. All of a sudden there was a ground breaking shake followed by a human scream. There was a loud crash. And I grimaced in pain the needle somehow had landed straight into my vein and released its contents into me. I shivered in pain and curled into a fetal position. Then I noticed something the door had closed and my pass was on the chair outside. "Un Fucking believable I thought to myself I tried getting up and the pain hurt even more I didn't know what was in that drug but I was being racked by pain. I heard what sounded like gunshots and human screams when I saw something burst throw the door outside it was pushing 10 feet with bat like wings and large horns. It sliced Wayne in half and he collapsed screaming in agony. It killed my other co-workers like they were ants compared to a human. I got up slowly and opened one of the cyro chambers I thought "chance to live compared to no chance at least now I have a fucking chance."
