*Prologue*
The Smile Factory, a maximum-security research facility, sits on a small and undiscovered island named Dressrosa. Most of the factory is located underground. But what is above ground is a front for who ever may stumble upon the island and the facility.
What exactly is it that happens in The Smile Factory? Well to put it bluntly... humans are used as subjects in experiments. Day in and day out they are subjected to test after test. And why is this? These humans are not normal. They have special attributes. Wings to be precise.
They are special humans born with a gene called Seraphant. The scientists want this gene, and will do anything to get it. And for the most part the scientists have succeded in seperating the gene from these humans. But not all of these humans have been born with Seraphant, some have been created. These people are called the Harleme. The Harleme are test subjects that have been modified by the scientists. These poor humans became Seraphant, and not of their free will.
Now there are so many test subjects living in The Smile Factory, that it is hard to count them all. Many of them have formed what they call flocks. These flocks consist of twenty to forty Seraphant. In total there are six flocks: Sinistah, Neubi, Tradial, Winglay, and Rishi. Wait have you noticed that I only typed five names? The sixth flock is not really a flock, but a group of outcasts. The people in the sixth flock are the Seraphant created by the scientists. They go by the same name as their breed, Harleme.
The Sinistah are adventure seeking. They are always looking for some kind of thrill. The Neubi are more on the intellectual side of things. They enjoy gathering knowledge and are good at tinkering with things. The Tradail are strong. They would rather train and build their strength than do anything else. The Winglay are peace loving. They would rather play music and love the arts. The Rishi are made up of trades people. Doctors, cooks, mechanics, and so on.
But all the flocks had something in common. All at once the different flocks decided that is was time to break their chains and fly free. They made their plans, and on the night of a full moon, made their escape. On that same night a child was born. He was born in the depths of The Smile Factory, his mother a true Seraphant and his father a Harlem.
This child was the first the be born with the Seraphant gene active. Normally a person with the gene would develop their wings after a few years. It was unheard of to be born with wings. This child was special.
It has been twenty-two years since the all the flocks made their escape. They live normal, simple lives, in small villages, hiding from the Scientists that work at The Smile Factory. But what about the child born on the night of the full moon? He still lives in the depths of The Smile Factory. He does not know of the others of his race, nor that he is the key to a larger plan. This larger plan could change the Seraphant, and even the world.
This young twenty-two year old man is the true leader of all Seraphant, but to obtain his title as true leader, he must have a mate. Who will become his mate? Who is he destined to be with?
The scientists are using him get all the Seraphant, which they lost, back. But the different flocks of Seraphant have other plans. They have made plans to rescue the man. What will happen to the Seraphant? What will happen to the man? Will the Seraphant ever be able to live among normal people? Or will they live in their hidden societies forever?
