Scientist stare at the two test subjects submerged inside their own individual water tanks as they are suspended in a specially design electrolyte salt chemical soup. There arms and legs connected to tubes feeding them steroids to help speed up the process of muscle growth and density the hormones already making a noticeable difference in increase of body hair more noticeably on the Marine.
Scientist # 1: how are our project going?
Scientist # 2: as well as can be expected hearts beating they're alive physically speaking.
but, we have yet to get any conscious response.
They appear to be brain dead.
Scientist # 3 : at least we know we can reanimate the dead and allowed to continue the project.
Scientist # 1: Well so far they both grown in height and body mass.
The army kid has grown exceptionally tall from his initial start point of 5'11 to 6'3 his weight is now 225 lbs.
The Marine has only increased by no more then 2 inches from his initial height of 5'7 making him a little over 5'9.
his weight does not match his height, he weighs nearly the same as the army kid at 233 lbs.
but no real muscle increase to explain the added weight.
Scientist # 2: it's bone density.
the unexplained weight is not just coming from their denser muscles but also bones.
The Scientist holds up an X ray showing parts of their Skeleton, the bones appearing bright white to indicate the increase density and certain areas peppered dark spread in certain areas of the bones.
Scientist # 2: it appears the Nanites have started added it's own alien metal composite to both their skeleton explaining the increase.
Scientist # 3: Can we stop the hormone steroid treatment ?
i mean we dont want freaks of nature we want them to pass as human not some hairy apeman.
the marine guy already has a beard and chest hair coming out of him at a faster rate then the other.
Scientist # 1: fine, cut off the feed.
nothing we add can improve what we have done with the craft technology.
A military man approaches wearing Army dress uniform carrying folders, the scientist stare as he approaches hiding their dislike toward military person due to their own sense of scientific superiority.
Army Officer: Gentlemen, i have been told to hand you these files.
The test subjects from now on will be reclassified.
I am also to inform you we will be reactivating Nikola Tesla's experiment.
Shut off any equipment you are not using.
good day, Gentlemen.
Scientist watch him leave annoyed as he leaves looking down they flap through the files give to them.
Scientist # 1: hmmm.. They want to see results soon as possible..
It also has their military files as if it is irrelevant to us.
bunch of morons.
Scientist # 3: they said up physical training requirements building obstacle course
As the scientist speak their is a power surge causing lights to flicker on and off and blowing up certain medical equipment most importantly creating a feat back which travels to the tanks electrifying the test subjects. unseen by the Scientist on a molecular level the electricity super charges not just the muscles making the test subjects flinch but the nanites causing them to multiply at an exponential rate. the electricity also travels through their brains reawakening dead dormant parts as the brain's neurons begin to spark.. the small nanite control unit which had been implanted into their brain begins to light up collecting and recording the neural activity learning, adapting shutting down the nanite growth among other things....
The test subjects spasm as their new consciousness grows opening their eyes.... The Scientist angry complain as the lights come back on as they check their equipment complaining about some warning they received finally they turn to check on their test subjects they realize their eyes are open staring through the glass.
Scientist # 2: OMG! look! they're awake!
Scientist # 1: quick get them out of there!
The Scientist team scatter gathering other workers to help with the process of removing them from the tank and continuing to talk about the file they had been handed.
Scientist # 3: so what were the new code names to be used for these guys?
Scientist # 2: umm.. Codename: Lycan for the Marine as in lycanthrope.
Codename: Sgt Maj. for the army kid.
Scientist # 1: Lycanthrope?
Scientist # 2 : as in werewolf.
Scientist #1 : ha! let's hope not.
they're already monsters dont need one to really be one.
