?'s POV
Darkness... that's all I could only see for however long I have been awake. Not that I could ever fall asleep anyway. For one thing, I am strapped to something metal so obviously it isn't exactly comfy. For another, many questions were running through my mind. Who am I? Where am I? Why am I here? For some reason, ever since I "arrived" here, I have no memory of my life. Either I am having ammesia or there is something far bigger going on out there. Besides, why does my head feel so fuzzy?
"...don't... results..."
"...same...burn it..."
"...no...priceless..."
"...discuss...conditions...Dr Heath...?" What kind of gibberish are they talking about?
"... test subject...conscious...heart rate...breathing...normal..."
"Can ... understand... now?"
"...not...sedative...30 CCs...don't think... smart... understand us." Ok... at least it is much clearer now, whatever I was given is wearing off now.
"So...we are going to test "it" out, any idea doc?" a slightly distorted voice for me, I have no idea who or what "it" refers to, but probably something bad is gonna happen to me.
"Yes actually General. As you know, we have some of the failed test subjects from the original Operation:Neo-hunter(1) serum, or you Deadwatch dubbed them,"Dead-brains"." What? Deadwatch? Why does it sound so familiar?
"Dead-brains because they are pretty much mindless fuckers who can't even understand simple English. The only thing they understand is to kill." "Distorted", which I have dubbed the General, explained. "So let me guess, we are going to let the test subject fight them?"
"Exactly, a simple survival stimulus, it should not have any problems dealing with it. Any light injuries should be fine. After all, we just need it to be weak enough to allow us to put this on him." "Doc", aka the so-called genius replied.
" Huh... so you guys made a restrictor already, that was fast. Thought you might need some of my guys to man-handle him."
"We are trying to play safe here, this should at least help stop him from using any moves, that is if he could. Anyway, it had worked on Pokemon, and technically this thing also has some Pokemon DNA mixed in from the blood tests we did, so chances are that he will be restricted in using moves." Well, that seems odd. Why would they use something to restrict... me if what they were refering to all along was me? I mean, I am human... right?
"Ok... whatever you say... let's just start this test."
A bright light filled the room. I had to close and blink my eyes quite a few times to get used to the light. Arceus... do they know how to treat anyone nicely? I looked around, hoping to find out where I am. Ok... a hexagon shaped, metal room with six doors surrounding me and one window above me with like seven people mostly covered with a weird black armor-like uniform holding guns standing guard and a weird helmet-mask covering their faces, the neon blue "goggle" eye piece seemingly staring at me(2). One other member had a decorated uniform but no head wear and looked old, probably a senior, hence his appearance I guess.
On his left stood a middle-aged man with a uniform similar to the soldiers except that his had a high-tech gadget attached to the uniform's arms. Standing on his right him is a old man in a lab-coat, aged around his mid 60s. There were two things that caught my eyes: one, the somewhat strangely designed and familiar insignias of both the militarily dressed people and the scientist. A white skull with a dark red star in its mouth for the soldiers and a DNA strand with a arch over it(3). Why do they seem so familiar? The second thing that caught my eye? Yep, you guessed it. Me. My arms have green coloured scales in place of skin and a tail with leaves growing out of it and on its end a slightly larger leaf. I admit that I looked cool and all, but right now I was freaking out. What exactly the fuck am I?
"Ok Nature Serpent," Nature Serpent? That's my name? I thought it was something else. Ah well, better than nothing."let's us start with a simple survival stimulus shall we?" As soon as he finished,
he pressed a button, not exactly giving me a chance to reply. I supposed that they think I am not a human and a little more or less than a Pokemon? Probably less, yeah definitely less. But right now I have bigger problems that that. Turning around, I saw a door opening after hearing a shrill alarm.
3rd Person POV
Serpent's eyes visibly widened as he saw what was behind the door.A group of humanoid creatures,with claws at where their hands should be and sickly green skin,(4) staggered towards him. One of them charged at Serpent, only for a fist to smash into his face,knocking the monstrosity off balanced. As the Dead-brain tried to regain its footing, the test subject powerfully kicked it into its companions, causing them to be knocked back."Interesting, it seems like Serpent possesses a high speed and quite a bit of strength(5), a little expected from a hybrid with Servine DNA."
"Doc" said, observing the test subject as he took out a note pad and write down the new data, not exactly impressed. Serpent thought,'Servine eh? That might explain why I looked like that.'
The Deadwatch soldiers kept silent as the scientist took down the data. "Hey! I can hear you fuckers!" Serpent shouted as he jumped behind a Dead-brain before quickly countering a attacking Dead-brain's strike(6).This obviously shocked everyone in the control room, not expecting him to talk in English.
"This thing is too dangerous if he can rebel! Burn the room!" the general shouted.
"But this specimen is priceless! We cannot easily replace it!" the scientist tried to convince the general otherwise, the key word here being "tried".
"You are out of order Heath, Colonel Herald, burn the room."
"I thought we were supposed to sent it to...,"the general's cold stare convinced Herald not to question him."By my orders,we forget about sending it to the other facility and to its death!"
"As per direct order of General Randall on 24/7/2015, 0221hrs, the test subject to be terminated by the room's incineratory system." Finishing, the colonel flicked a switch. The room that Serpent is in now filled with petroleum gas, the test subject oblivious to due to him being distracted since he was dealing with a bunch of Dead-brains at that he saw flames coming from the vents in the testing chamber, just one word was enough to express himself in the best possible way."Shit!"
Just as Serpent finished, the entire testing chamber exploded into the flames have died down, the Dead-brains were on the floor, completely charred from the intense heat and not moving a muscle,killed instanteously by the explosion. Serpent, also charred (the green coloured leaves on his body are like ash now), however managed to get on his knees before collapsing. The only thing not charred was the metal piece Serpent was formally strapped to. Two soldiers, sent by General Randall himself, entered the testing chamber via the entrance door ( which is actually one of the six doors Serpent saw ) and walked towards Serpent's body. "No signs of life sir." One of them reported."Make sure, we don't need another monster around." Randall ordered, at which both shot a few rounds into Serpent's head after saying "yes sir!".
Serpent's POV
Ok,normally I turn to logic when something happens, but this is fucking unreal! How the hell can I survive all that shit!(7)Being burned and have not just one,two but like six bullets to the face?! The pain is unbearable,just imagine: take a pin and have it hammered to your one point of your body. Multiply it by 1000 to any other part of your body. Ok... maybe I was exaggerating but you get the point. For some reason, my body shot itself up and I grabbed one of the fuckers who shot me with my left hand and before thrusting my other hand into the bastard's chest. As the soldier screamed for me to let go, I felt root like tendrils(?) forming out of my palm and digging into his a weird feeling that was as the whole process occured: I felt the tendrils literally leeching the soldier's life away from him as my body seemed to heal from the process, even the leaves on my body regained their colour(8). The soldier in my hand lay was screaming in pain and fear,
each passing millisecond becoming weaker before he stopped, limp and lifeless. All that, under less than 5 seconds. His comrade, scared shitless, stuttered out things like "Oh Arceus!" continously, and backed away from me before running back to where he came from. Must have scarred him for life.
"Amazing,it healed him!" Everyone here knows that much captain obvious."Release all Dead-brains now, all other non-Deadwatch personel evacuate the building!" the general barked. While they were busy being idiots there, I was regenerating as the leaves on my body photosynthesised(9). As much as I wanted to use that leeching move again (pretty damn useful by the way) the sight of the way I killed the man scared me. He was showing so much pain during the 4-5 second to self, only use when in desperate need for health. Looking around I punched and kicked the nearby Dead-brain in their faces or body, basically toying with them whenever possible. That is until I heard,"Burn with the room once more!" from the general and the same thing about 5 minutes ago happened. Again, I was burned but at least I still can regenerate without using that leeching ability after all that damage.
"Fuck!The switch's jammed, colonel watch the test subject."
"Don't worry Serpent's not gonna... wait the hell is h-" While General Oblivious was barking orders, it gave me enough time to use the metal table as a extra jumping platform out through the window (and shattering the window". The next thing I know, bullets were flying pass me as I broke out of the Arceus forsaken place... into a forest. Ok, which idiot architect builds a testing facility in the middle of a freaking forest? Not easily for people to evacuate you know. Forgetting that question, I sprinted deep into the forest,using the florage as cover(10) and not looking back as I savoured the first taste of freedom. Making sure that no one else is on my trail, I took off my "test subject" garments. That's when I realised a yellow v-shaped collar which extends from my chest to the back of my collar. At this time, I had no idea how it happened but did not care when a green leaf-scale like material seemed to grow out of my skin and weave itself to a green hoodie with long sleeves and matching long pants(11). Sighing as I covered my head with the hood, I muttered out, "Well,that certainly went to me guess, more shit for me to expect?"
Little did I know how right I was.
And that's that for Chapter 1!
Yes I know, it contains a lot of prototype references.
Ok, here is some data I wanted to type in the prologue as part of the events before Evolve and Survive but never did because I sent the prologue already.
Operation New Descent is,in layman's terms the 2nd gen version of Descent,the latter being the original supersoldier programme but failed countless times due to the Descent serum being too potent.
and killed all those who take it. New Descent is basically a weaker variant of Descent and enhanced due to the use of pokemon DNA in order to allow supersoldiers to gain additional the rate of success has only risen from NIL to extremely slim, with the codenamed "Forest Serpent" the only survivor out of 300 in this operation.
Ok, () represents data that might show Serpent's powers and abilities,points of interest or enemies,for that chapter.
(1):Operation:Neo-hunter, another supersoldier to allow people(usually Deadwatch) to mutate a biological blade,claw or any melee weapon possible. Side-effects were that most test subjects seem to die and rot during the mutation process and hence lose their minds. Survival Rate of Neo-hunter originally was 15%. Now at 60% thanks to further bio-engineering and given to some soldiers who have are seen as potential "Neo-hunters" .Soldiers enhanced with the serum are augmented physically in terms of strength, speed and endurance with pokemon abilities.
(2)Deadwatch troopers, the basic units of Deadwatch, a military organisation which deals with biological threats (as well as creating bio-weapons and infamously testing on humans who they take forcibly due to their authority), serve Deadwatch with extreme loyalty. Most follow superiors without question, regardless on how immoral the task might be. Often seen holding M16s,grenade and rocket lower ranking members, they wear black armor and a helmet-mask with a neon blue eye pieces to protect themselves from blunt weapon strikes and bullets sparingly.
(3)Symbols of Deadwatch and BioArch, the two organisations seem to work together for Deadwatch's operations,the former doing the dispersal of bio-weapons and the latter in creating them.
(4)Original Dead-brains, as Randall described, this is basically a classic zombie with claws for hands. Weak in nature and lacks a intelligent mind, they only know how to to the head,
head shots or just moderate body damage is more than enough to take down these creatures. Burning them also works wonders, especially when they are in a small group.
(5,6&7)Serpent is fast enough to outspeed and strong enough to easily take down humans and Deadwatch enhanced soldiers with minimal also have enhanced reaction speed to counter most enemy attacks,increased agility and endurance.
(8)Bio-leech,Serpent releases root like tendrils to dig into a biological tendrils will then absorb life in the form of biomass from said target,like how roots take in water and nutrients Most of the time, victims of this attack often die or are left very the normally 4-5 second process, most wounds Serpent has on him will heal , this unique ability also seems to freak him out due to its kill-to-heal nature. It can be very slow in process, depending on target, giving ample time for other people to knock Serpent away before he finishes,
with whatever leeched life returning to the victim. Hence, Serpent uses it only out of desperation.
(9)Like a Servine and its evolutionary line, Serpent can regenerate via photosynthesis through the leaves or photosynthetic scales on his body.
(10)He can use the surroundings, often forests as cover for stleath if need be, his body's appearance giving him the ability to meld into forests with relative ease.
(11)This set of "clothing" is actually made of the leaf-like scales of a servine, allowing Serpent to photosynthesise at greater rates due to him having a greater surface area of chlorophyll.
Its color also mean that Serpent's ability to hide himself in forested areas are further augmented.
Again please give me constructive criticism and no flames!
Until next Chapter!

For mine, it would look something like this:
Name:Jasper(real)/Forest Serpent(codename)
Gender:M
Age:16
Race:Human-Servine Hybrid
Appearance:A lightly-tanned skinned teen with short,black hair and red is fairly moderate in height, standing at 1. hands have green,photosynthetic scales and have a tail of a Servine. Leaves protude out of his back. He is seen often seen wearing a long-sleeved hoodie with matching long pants of similar material and color as his arms.
History:Formerly living with his parents and younger,Jasper/Serpent had been taken away and experimented on by Deadwatch,and is the first known survivor of Operation: New Descent. He was a fairly okay student, earning himself As or Bs for most subjects but was not as good physically prior to his experimentation. Now he searches for whatever bit of memories that involves him and his past life, as well as to come to terms with his newfound powers.
Make-up and earrings:No
Glasses: Wears a pair of dark blue rimmed glasses.
Weapons used: Leaf-green bladed Katana with snake patterned sheath(achieving leaf blade,summoned at will), Solar Gauntlets & Greaves(achieving Solar Beam, summoned at will)
Personality: Jasper/Serpent is normally quiet and is not the type to be easily agitated unless it involves someone hurting innocents(usually childen), friends or family. A taticial person by nature, he is cautious and will most likely study the situation instead of charging is also a lone wolf,prefering to fight solo.
He can, however, be sarcastic or sardonic towads those who he feels that are pissing him off.
Hobbies:Practising new abilities he unlocks, and listening to metal/rock songs.
Most favourite food:Fish burger
Least favourite food: Most vegetables(surprise,surprise)
Strengths:Serpent has higher speed than most humans and some hybrids, and hence can counter attacks with relative ease, if he can outspeed them that is. He also has enhanced agility,endurance and strength,meaning he can parkour, survive or at least resist most fatal attacks and fight on par with some stronger-than-humans enemies easily. To make up for his poor hand-to-hand skills, he uses either strategies and tatics or long range attacks to try and defeat close range combatants.
Weaknesses:As mentioned, he is poor at hand-to-hand and prefers long range fighting, meaning close range attackers are advantaged if they can close in on him. He is also a poor team partner in battles being a lone wolf.
Allegiance:No one
Moves:Leaf Control-Shield(protects from most non-AOE attacks),Storm(sends a wave of sharp leaves at target),Tornado(surround himself with leaves that damage on impact before using it similar to the anime, only accessible with katana)
Vine Whip-Sweeper(a near 180 degree sweep),Snatch/Vine-Bound(uses vines like a grappling hook to pull target or get pulled towards target)
Leaf Blade-Split(a downward strike from mid air to ground),Shuffle(a side-step to avoid before sending a sweeping strike),Quickdraw(sheath katana first before sending a quick and powerful strike)
Solar beam-Normal solar beam,Devil's Sunrise(two upward kicks,giving Serpent and target altitude) and Cometstrike(a downward kick that can be chained with Devil's Sunrise)
A/N: the last two moves are only used in gauntlet and greaves form.
Unique move:Bio-leech - Create root like tendrils which digs into flesh and absorb life in form of biomass, like how roots absorb water and minerals from the soil.
Can kill a victim after the normally 4-5 sec move finishes(enemies that have a lot of health or are strong enough can survive or even resist the leeching). A/N: He feels freaked out using this move.
Quotes:Hmmm...let's see... that should do.
Damn...using that Bio-leech still freaks me out!
Okay...back to the drawing board.
Taunts:Let's see how you like having a monster in the same room/place as you!*fighting Deadwatch*
Huh,new Deadwatch freaks/Freaking big-ass human-tank guys,guess I am not the only freak fighting in town now.*fighting Neo-hunter/Goliath class supersoldiers(featured later in the fic)*
Hmm,let's give Operation:[insert here] a start,to its demise!*pyschotic laughter*
Don't get so cocky!*sheaths katana and start using Leaf Tornado*
Let's give ya some "Light" workout... heh heh "light".*starts summoning solar gauntlets and greaves and gets into hand-to-hand fighting stance*
Time to "leaf" some corpses behind. *using leaf control*
Now then...let's see if you can run away from me now!*using vine whip*
Wanna know how it's like sliced and diced? Let me demostrate! *using leaf blade*
Theme Music: I'm my own master now.[aka, Metal Gear Rising Revengeance's(Great game btw) Blade Wolf boss theme]
