THE BACKGROUND STORY
It was the winter of 2009. The X-5's had just escaped. New soldiers had to be made but the Pulse put a halt on the project. All the information in the computers about the X-soldiers were fried to a crisp. It seemed impossible to create new soldiers. Manticore is in the verge of disappearing.
Times were hard and funding was already cut down, it was hard for the scientists to find mothers fit to carry the children and the scientists also feared the risk of the children being stillborn. They were desperate. They had to find a way.
An experiment created a new breed of soldiers and a new hope that Manticore is to remain alive. A year and a half after the Pulse, project Manticore still exists. In the Zhezna Lab located in secluded woods north of Montana, a group of scientists were able to clone the X-5's into better soldiers.
Unlike their previous counterparts, the new soldiers were not born: They were made. Test tubes served as the womb to these new soldiers. They were kept in tubes until they were allowed to live outside of it. To live in the world, as a soldier. To live a full life of training…and fear.
INTRODUCTION
In this fanfic, this Zhezna Lab north of Montana is exactly like the Vivadyne Labs in Gillette, Wyoming.
The X-5's do not know of the X-6's and in my story X-7's do not exist. (Hey, it's my fanfic, I'll make the rules). Lydecker is still in desperate pursuit of the X-5's and does not know about the Zhezna Project. Madame A, AKA Renfro, does not show up until 2019 so, well, she does not exist either.
These X-6's are the same as the X-5's in appearance because I don't really know much about the other characters besides Max and Zack, I made up their age difference, flaws (seizures, Werner's syndrome, etc.), mentality towards things and interaction towards each other.
The Nomlies in my fanfic are previous X- soldiers made like them (test tubes and all that) and are, well, an anomaly. They were previous defective soldiers and Manticore is trying to reprogram them experimentally.
You may be wondering about the crazy and smart-ass things these kids say (no cussing yet) but they may come up with the wildest comebacks and phrases. I apologize for exaggerating in some sense, but to think of it, these X-6's should be more advanced in some way compared to the X-5's.
---CHAPTER 1- THIS ONE'S A FIGHTER---
Screen caption "ZHEZNA LABS, NORTH MONTANA, WINTER of 2018". Inside a laboratory, the audience sees tubes standing vertically, one across from another. There were at least a dozen of these tubes. Only three tubes, the last ones on both corners of the room, were filled with green liquid and seem to have some kind of human form inside. All the rest were empty.
(Jen's point of view) Jen's eyes start to open. She sees green liquid and thick wires around her. She begins to fidget and move around. She sees people moving across the room.
(outside the tubes) the Audience sees Madame Vivian, Peter Wilkes and a couple of scientists. The Madame is turning a knob. They are looking directly at Jen while she is looking back at them. She is about 3-4 years old her head not shaved yet and is strapped in a leather like suit attached to wires. On her mouth and her nose is a breathing apparatus).
MADAME V: It's her time. I am pretty sure she's ready. We've waited long enough to wake her up.
SCI 1: Yes, ma'am
Madame V: Hopefully, she's not like any of those previous X-soldiers. I'd hate putting a good soldier to waste.
(Scientists continue on to their work. Jen's tubes are tilted backwards. Jen looks at the wires on her arms and keeps on moving. The green liquid is being drained from her tubes. The scientists open the top of the tube and start to remove some of the wires and the breathing apparatus. Once the mask was removed, Jen starts to choke and hyperventilate.)
JEN (choking): Aah. (cough)
MADAME V: Are we losing her? (The heart monitor starts to beat faster)
SCI 1: Her blood pressure is going down.
SCI 2: We need to get her oxygen. The sudden change in environment must be upsetting…
MADAME V: Then stop explaining and start working!!! You imbeciles had better do the best you cannot to lose this X-6 or I assure you, you will be in the same grave with her.
(Jen continues to catch her breath and move around as the monitor keeps beating faster. The scientists attached an oxygen mask on Jen and continue to remove the wires. The monitor mobilizes after a minute).
SCI 3: 85/50. Her blood pressure's normal.
MADAME V: I am not worrying anymore. I have a feeling this one's going to be a good fighter.
(Jen is now awake and conscious. The scientists looked relieved as Madame V leaves the room. They remove the leather like suit from Jen. A nurse pats Jen dry, takes her to a baby bed, attaches a couple of wires near her heart and lungs and also puts a blanket on top of her. Jen glances at the tubes next to her. She sees a boy of the same age as her still in the tubes. She sighs and goes back to sleep.)
