Bella's POV
My name is Isabella Marie Swan but I prefer Bella. However, my name is something which is kept private between my unit and I, Manticore didn't give us names; just barcodes and designations. My barcode number is 332960073452 and my designation is X5-452. I know what your thinking, Manticore? Barcodes? Designations? Let me explain. Manticore is a Government building in Seattle, its purpose is to take children and hand them to scientists to manipulate their genes and turn them into the perfect super solider for the great USA. I'm one of those children. I was took away from my mother right after she had given birth to me and handed over to Lydecker and his scientists. The barcodes are on the back of our necks, looking just like a tattoo, but it's really the way the idiots around this place know who is who, they use our designations for short.
Life as X5-452 consists of drills, combat training, weapons training, military training, being taught to hate the enemy amongst other things. Looking at me, I look like your average six year old girl minus the fact I have a buzz cut. I'm no average six year old. I can run faster than anything, have super strength, heightened senses, a sense for danger, blood which matches no type, heal quickly, extremely intelligent ,thanks to the shark DNA the scientists decided to put in me I can go days without sleep and the feline DNA in me I'm graceful and sleek. There's also the embarrassing side of having feline DNA; I go into heat. Being a transgenic I'm flawless in the looks department, I have creamy and smooth skin, a great figure and slightly plump lips. It's all part of their plan of course; looks help when it comes to luring the target when you're on a job. I've been on a few jobs already, always with the C.O of my unit, gathering information and following targets. All part of the training for the life Manticore and Lydecker wants us to have.
Manticore expects all its soldiers to not feel anything, especially fear or love. Fear shouldn't exist, it's always simply a case of mind over matter and love is nothing more than something that will get you killed. This is where my unit and I are different. We do love; we love each other as siblings. This is why we planned to escape from Manticore and go into the unknown. The murdering, training, fighting, the experiments, psych ops.....all of it is just wrong and we wanted out. That's how I managed to get myself here, in a forest just outside of Seattle. I'm alone, my unit have spread out to who knows where and have no where to go.
A/N: Please read and review (: I know it's short but there is more to come
