An alternate re-create (of sorts) that first brought Duke and Xavi together (YAY); Operation Preservation is a mix of futuristic and fantasy, action and perhaps romance.

A world, slowly being riddled away by sickness and disease and started to look for ways to stop all that. Even with the expansion of modern medicine, it seemed the ailments that these medicines were supposed to cure were slowly becoming less and less efficient in fighting off illness. People were dying and the average human life expectancy was plummeting; a race that was once living nearly till 100 years of age was slowly become lucky to see the age of 60. Advocate groups popped up, saying that it was everyone's fault for no one had taken things such as recycling and green energy seriously; landfills were over flowing, trash was being sent to space. Cities that looked like they were from out of some sci-fi movie had lost much of their luster in the outer edges of the city where the poor now dwelled; only the rich could see the heart of the cities and those that couldn't afford it were killed or arrested for trying.

An organization started up to try and help stop all this. If medicine was no longer helping, then humans just had to become unable to succumb to illness. They said they were going to come up with a serum or medicine that would change everything; people wouldn't get sick, they would live longer. They would hold paid testings for new products they were coming out with, but the truth of what was going on lay behind the scenes.

The facility, as those inside knew it as, was planning something much larger. Yes, they were creating a way for people to never get sick, but it wasn't meant for the public. The number of missing person's reports started to increase, but only slightly for the facility was trying to be careful to kidnap those that would not be missed, or bought people from families that needed help.

They were testing on human subjects, though not even those being tested on knew just why and the scientists were quiet as to what was really going on. Eventually, experiments were let out, under the watchful eye of a guard provided by the facility. It was to make sure that 'the magic serum was working' they were told; they had to get real field tests. Yet, even with that, the highly skilled and arm guards started being killed off, leaving these experiments to fend for themselves.

The experiments have somehow been able to find each other and have been gathering together for safety in numbers. None aware of what was still going on in the horrible place.
