After series of successful experiments, Dr. Brischt and the rest of the scientists are now ready for the next stage of the project. The vampire project only needs humans fit for the upcoming procedures. The survival rate of the person must at the highest rate to prevent unnecessary reactions that could endanger his/her life. Now, each country must be able to find these people in order to proceed with the project. They must be physically fit, mentally alert and most of all emotionally stable. The only concern the chairmen have is how they can lure these people to agree with the project, without having the need to tell a single detail about it. As they tackle about the matter they were interrupted by Dr. Brischt.
"Excuse me Generals, these are the new tests we've completed. All of the documentation and notes are all in the flash drive. Please do examine it and I hope that we can now proceed to the next step. All preparations have been done, only the new specimens are needed."
"Thank you for the hard work Dr. Brischt. For now, let all your crew take the day off and enjoy the moment while they can, for once we've get a hand on these people, the mutation will proceed immediately." said Gen. Nushka in a confident vioce.
"That only means you don't have these people yet? That saddens me." Dr. Brischt walks away leaving Gen. Nushka hanging.
"Tch. That doctor gets into my nerves!"
"Gentlemen, let's now continue where we left our conversation."
"Gen. Johanssen, I've heard that we are now ready for the next stage of the project." said Gen. Makar Buhaden of India.
"We sure are ready, we only need the people worthy enough for the power they will possess. Most of all, they should be under our control after the success of the experiment." answered Gen. Johanssen of United States.
"We can simply set out a recruitment for a few spots in the military. We can use an alibi like, we need a few people for a very important mission. After that we'll test their capabilities and send them off here." Gen. Aldric Cloutier of France.
"Aren't we rising the curiosity of the military force in that manner? This project is highly classified that not even the presidents of our countries know about it. Then if we post something like that, the public eye might quibble into it leading us to answer unnecessary questions that can blow up the entire confidentiality of the project."Gen. Mikel Prius of United Kingdom.
"You've got a point there Gen. Prius. If we don't recruit publicly, then we must do it stealthy. Like we set out some of our men to patrol day and night without being notice. They must be one with the crowd to avoid suspicions amongst others. These people can be anyone." said Gen. Yang of China.
"So how's it going to be?" asked Gen. Nushka of Russia.
"Very well then, I agree with Gen. Yang. We must search for these people. They are not likely the ones who will answer in a recruitment warrants. Okay gentlemen we are now set for this plan." said Gen. Johanssen.
As the generals proceed with their meeting, the plan has been set out throughout their allies. They are the ones who knows about the vampire project and a loyal followers of the generals.
*INDIA
Gen. Buhaden immediately return to his country to implement the plan. He set out skilled men in search for someone fit for the project. They may not have a single idea on who they are looking for but they believe somewhere out there, someone will surprise him of this persons existence.
"Men, I know this is a very hard task but I'm sure you can bring someone as soon as possible."
"Don't worry general me and my men will see to it that before you know about it he/she is already in front of you." as the captain of the troop said it they went off immediately.
All of Gen. Buhaden's men scatter all over in India to start the search. Day and night they search and search. Three of the troops went to the poorest place in India. Some of the people there are starving while some of them lies on the street bed. A thin girl, dark skinned, bright big-eyes and curly hair caught one of the troops attention. He then signaled the others about the girl and they split up to watch the girl from afar.
"Ara! Ara! you lazy girl. We adopted you 6 years ago hoping you will bring a bright future to us. But now that your 19, all those marriage proposals those noble men offered you, you declined them all. What are waiting for, golds will rain down on you? Be sure to show yourself tonight at a friend's house. His son is very eager to see you."
"But mama, I am not interested in marriage. All those marriages is like a good for nothing one. Marry to be rich? What is that mama?"
"I don't want to hear a single word again. If I say you marry, then you should go ahead and marry. Be a good girl Ara."
"No matter what you say mama, I'm sorry but I can't marry him. I'd rather leave this place than to be troubled by your own dreams." Ara then was slapped by her adoptive mother. She held her head high and walks away.
The three men from awhile ago secretly followed her. Ara then head to a little house where 4 little children are happy to see her. She embrace all of them and give them a kiss on the forehead. Later on, a brute looking man then suddenly knocks on the door, slamming it after a few knocks.
"Akur! What are you doing? Destroying the door after a few knocks is very unreasonable." Ara raised her voice in anger.
"Are you not going to pay now? I gave you 2 days pass because you asked for an extension. Now, why not marry me? If you do not have the money you owe me." Akur grabs her hand
"Your kidding me right? First of all, it's not my debt to pay. I don't know why I am the one paying for the debt of my adoptive father. Akur let go of me before you regret it." Ara stared at Akur.
"What can a thin girl like you can do?" Akur grins.
"Hmmp! that doens't mean I'm thin I cannot do anything." the three men slowly move to be of help if ever Akur hurt her. Suddenly, Ara got her hand back in a single movement. Too fast for Akur to realize he's not holding her hand anymore. The three men are amaze by how Ara manages to remove her hand from Akur's grip.
"You brat!" Akur loses his composure and closes his fist to hit Ara. But Ara dodges the punch and grab a frying pan and hit it on Akur's face. She then called out the children and they all run away. The three men followed her and when Ara realizes she was followed she then hid the children and hide at the corner that's not visible from anyone. One of the men hurried to the area where they saw Ara stopped. Ara then jumps on his back and choke him. With her physical appearance, nobody would have guess that she's able to knock out a big man like Akur.
"Stop!" ordered the other man. "Ara, that is your name right? We have a proposal to make. Please hear us."
"I'm done with that proposals. Find someone---" Ara still chokes the man she's holding from behind.
"Not a marriage proposal. It's something better. We can take you away from here and those children can live a healthy life. Just let us explain. Please let him go your killing him." Ara then let the man go and push him towards his comrades.
"Better be worth it or I'll choke you three to death." Ara sits beside the children and her attention is fully towards the proposal.
"You see, we are looking for someone like you to meet with the General. All the details will be explained to you once you meet the general." the man held out a letter to Ara. "Be sure to read it carefully. And you must be the only one to know about it. If ever your ready just give us a call and we will escort you there."
Ara opened the envelop and started reading it. The three men were nowhere to be found after opening the letter. With doubts in her mind, she then gather the children up and stayed under a tarpaulin spread to protect them through the night. The three men returned and informed Gen. Buhaden about the girl. Even Gen. Buhaden is now eager to see the girl face to face. The only thing now is, will she really take the offer or decline it like what she did about the marriage proposals.
