300 hundred years ago this wouldn't have happened. Just 10 short generations ago the women of our race wouldn't have been to weak to bear children, and I wouldn't have to live with this fear. If I had been born just 300 hundred years earlier, this wouldn't have been such a problem. I wouldn't be part of this evolved race, that no longer restricted childbirth to solely women.
You see, 30 decades ago, some terrorist group, no one bothers to remember the name of, created a bio-weapon. A very dangerous bio weapon that they greatly underestimated, but unlike normal bio weapons, it did not kill. Instead it was programed to infect every women in the desired area, with a call that would basicly kill their uterus, and bind to there genetic material, making it nearly impossible to reverse. It got out of control, and within one single year, the entire worlds population of human women, were contaminated by the chemical, and therefor unable to birth new life.
We got lucky though. Some women were immune to the airborne toxin. And we had new hope for our quickly dieing race. So we breed the renaming fertile women, as barbaric as it sounds, we breed them, that handful of our kind that still held the ability almost all women possessed a year before. Of the children that were birthed from these women, more then half were boys, and of the girls, only 1 of the 489 was tested positive to have children of her own. We were doomed again, until a doctor, orochimaru came up with a plan, 70 years later, after the world had collapsed and rebuilt itself, barley supporting the dwindling population.
He proposed an idea. A slightly twisted idea, but one that had to be considered heavily. Lets inject our men with a chemical that will give them uterus like structures, but they will be men still, so the virus will not affect them. And the world agreed to try it. It took 20 years for the injection to be formulated correctly, and 10 more for it to be programed to bind it with the genetic material of the host, so it may be passed on from father to son. It only bonded correctly with 50% or the population though. It seemed to be drawn to men with lower testosterone levels, and then when that 50 percent hit puberty, they would go through a change. A one to two week change that would enable them to give life from then on. It was a painful process, that included deforming the pelvic bone, and destroying and regrowing a new set of organs. But the worst part had to be that you had to stay awake for the entire ordeal. You couldn't just lay sedated on your bed for two weeks. If you rested, so did the 'baby' cells.
If that sequence of events had not occurred, maybe I wouldn't be in this situation, maybe I wouldn't be walking home from down town Konaha, where I had had my pants ripped off in a back alley, behind a dumpster, with a knife pressed to my spin as my assailant raped me repeatedly.
"If you scream, I will cut you open, and use your body even after your dead, do you understand?" That's what he had told me, when my face was pressed onto the dirty concert, and my ass was sticking strait up into the air. It was so humiliating. I had thought, that I would have rather been dead then to suffer that sort of treatment, but when he told me that, I froze. All I could think of was my family, and me being gone before my life had even really began. So I stayed quite, only crying out quietly when he would change my position suddenly or his treatment towards me became particularly painful. I had just let that happen to me. God, I am such a coward. And to think, around this time next month, I could have his child growing inside of me.
Hi there! I know its short, but whatever! THe next chapter will be longer! I hope! So yeah... I do realize I have a story in process that I haven't touch in about a year give or take, but I got the inspiration for this fic when I was in class. So I wrote it :P I have the second chapter, written, all I have to do it type it, so I will put it up sometime tomorrow-ish. Chapter three is about 1/3 of the way done. If this story gets a good reaction (or not), I will be looking for a beta, who gets to read the chapter before it comes out ;D
