Gekirin: Shinigami no Seito. (Wrath: Shinigami's Path of Life).

(If you want to know why I began to rewrote it, read the note I left in the other fanfic)
So here is the prologue! Enjoy!
The situation on Earth...
...
Year 2305 AD.
Simply put, it is a time of future revolution within the world.
A time in which humanity has made its best efforts to bring the toils of their labor into fruition:
Unity.
However, a rift between men still lingers, unable to be conquered by mere political means.
It is a gap that has separated men from the beginning.
Distrust, fear, and hatred.
Frustrated and filled with hopelessness, the former United States of America, the United Space Colonies of America made numerous attempts to persuade its neighbors, the European Federation Alliance and the Soviet-Asian League.
Of course, each nation has its pride, and that arrogance had caused those shots at harmony among the three superpowers to fail.
With other factors, including greed for wealth, lust for power, and the need to arise as the most fit to survive, the EFA and the RAL forced the USCA into a corner to struggle and retaliate.
Year 2312 AD.
The RAL nation prepares to overtake its closest neighbor, the EFA, and makes near god-speed preparations for war.
The EFA strikes back in a frightening series of defensive battles around France, Germany, and even among the coast of Italy.
These battles lead to the ignition of World War III.
The USCA passes the International Isolationist Act of 2312 AD. It closes off all ports and airways in its territories from the mainland Americas, Japan, the Republic of Korea, Taiwan, and Vietnam.
This boosts the American economic state as it frees the USCA from dependence on other countries to provide work.
During this time, many Americans and American-Certified Asians make-ready make leave planet-side and find homes in the colonies in American space territory.
Year 2314 AD.
The RAL and EFA death tolls are surprisingly lower than expected, as new technologies make it easier for the common infantryman to survive and complete his or her mission.
Soon, the USCA feels the pushes and shoves of it's fellow neighboring nations, and begins to prepare for armed interventions.
It launches its first mission to stop a battle on March 3rd, then continues a series of interventions on July 8th, August 2nd, and November 7th.
Year 2315.
The USCA is pressured and feels the wrath of the EFA and RAL on-ground forces.
To prevent further losses, the USCA finalizes the unification of all countries and territories within its alliance with the launch of the American Magnetic Shield.
This literally causes the repulsion of foreign weapons and transport vehicles from entering American soil and "space."
The AMS system was created and put into effect by a renowned group of scientists led by Dr. Jacob Archibald, with Dr. Rousseau Borvinski as co-leader.
Year 2316.
Unnatural phenomenons occur around the world in the lands belonging to the European Federation Alliance and the Russian-Asian League.
The USCA watches from space as the two opposing forces destroy themselves... and flee from the paranormal activities sparking all over the planet.
Year 2317.
Dr. Archibald and Dr. Borvinski receive permission to begin studies on bio-chemical warfare and human testing for bio-organic enhancement.
With over 120 test subjects, their team fails to produce a successful humanoid weapon acceptable to the USCA government.
All test subjects are put into cryo-stasis and the project is restarted.
Dr. Archibald resumes with subjects 121 through 130.
Dr. Borvinski studies the odd source of energy emitted from paranormal sites, and begins to study "spiritual energy" and its effects on human beings.
Year 2319...
Planet-side in Tokyo, Japan, seventeen-year-old Kurosaki Shin is walking home with Kiyodama Sakura.
