Introduction
The story takes place in the future.
3000 to be exact, in a world where there is a human race called the Engenes, a mutant generation with extraordinary powers.
This race is now facing government persecution because of the few Engenes who decide to take their powers and use them for bad instead of good.
The G.I. -- Government Initiative, a government force that works against the Engenes whether good or bad in order to exterminate their kind -- creates holding cells located all over the globe where Engenes are forced to live as outcasts, being afraid to show their powers. Those that do are sent to one of G.I.’s research facilities for torment and other twisted government experiments.
Out of this struggle is formed among the Engenes a will to survive against the Engenes who decide to work against their own kind, the G.I.’s, and the struggle within humanity as a whole. With numerous heroes, as well as villains, along with G.I.’s that have hyper powered suits giving them extra human capabilities, the world is a war zone with social and physical struggles.
It is on this premise that Combat comes in to play.
Combat is one of the new trained G.I.’s, whose purpose is to assist in the extermination and apprehension of Engenetic mutants who are considered to be threats to society.
However through the course of time, Combat realizes that the Engenes are only being exploited for the government’s own personal use.
This will be an ongoing series. Not only about Combat, it will also have different stories about Engenetic heroes, G.I.’s who turn good, spin-offs about rebels, and what happens when the President’s daughter is found to be an Engene as well.
I maximized this storyline to its fullest potential. Its intended audience will be both young and adult alike.
