Story 3: crossover with Dark Angel
The Project
One day, The Council was approached by a military research group. The Council as a rule did not have dealings with the military, but some of the Council members were intrigued by what the group had proposed. These members made a deal with the group--unbeknownst to the rest of the Council.
The group was experimenting with genetics, trying to construct the perfect soldier. They had previously experimented with demons but that project was a failure and now they were working with animal DNA instead. However, they felt that there was something missing and were intrigued to learn about The Slayer. They felt that if the DNA of a Slayer was added to the mix it would greatly improve their results.
The Council members informed them that they could not spare a Slayer, but they did secretly have a few Potentials abducted and 'donated' to the cause. Then, a few years later an opportunity to get an actual Slayer presented itself. The Council as such was no more, due to the destruction of its headquarters but there were still some members left scattered here and there. Only one of the members linked to The Project remained, but one was enough. He found out through his sources that all the Potentials had been activated--and in his eyes there were Slayers to be spared. He could have chosen any one of the new ones--they would have been fairly easy to apprehend. But he had a grudge with one of the originals.
After much planning, her death was staged. Everyone thought her dead and did not know that she was alive though chained and sedated in a black van headed for Manticore. She only produced one child, but that child would turn out to be The Project's undoing--for that child was Chosen.
