Disclaimer: I do not own Prototype, nor to I own Twilight. If I owned Twilight, I would probably have to shoot myself for sheer bad writing alone. If I owned Prototype, I would completely get rid of the premise of Prototype 2 and make it about Alex and Pariah duking it out in an epic battle of the ages. (Seriously game developers, what the hell? Why did you make Alex do a complete 180 and turn evil out of nowhere? Doesn't fit his personality at all!)

Prologue

In the years that he had been "alive" (for lack of a better term), Alex Mercer had seen some shit.

Humans, so mutated by the infection created by Greene, reduced to wailing, slobbering animals that ate and teared at their own families. Blackwatch soldiers killing civilians and their own men, using children as bait in order to save their own skins. Entire nests of Hunters forming out of abandoned buildings, using humans as nothing more than meat for them to feed on. Streets running red with blood and chunks of body parts ranging from arms and legs, to intact heads that stared into your soul and seemed to scream at the heavens. Elizabeth Greene in all her fucked up glory and the many, many Hunters and creatures – Mother in particular – that she managed to spawn during his fight to save his sister's life. Pariah and his child-like need to kill anything and everything that moved; his screams and cries of pain sounded so much like Dana that more than once Alex found himself hesitating, unable to go for the final blow. Every waking moment it was just nothing but screams, cries of pain, and endless begging for someone to pleaseohgodpleasehelpmehelpmenononononono-

And that was just in the first few months of his life.

It was right around the time that he killed Pariah, destroyed Blackwatch, and finally wiped out the last remains of the Blacklight and Greene's virus that things managed to cool down. In the process 99% of Manhattan had been wiped out, over a million people were dead, and what little remained was evacuated of civilians (a first in Alex's eyes) and promptly bombed by the US military.

From what Dana managed to dig up, the United States government had cut their losses and completely wiped their hands of the entire situation. They demoted and fired every single Blackwatch soldier and scientist, erased all evidence of the virus and what it did to Manhattan of ever happening, and denied everything. Any and all photos, videos, or any form of proof about the infestation and mass murder that happened in Manhattan was all confiscated or deleted.

When asked by the public what happened to the thousands of people who died, as well as the remains of Manhattan that they bombed, they blamed it on some African disease that made its way to the US somehow. Any and all people involved in the situation were either bribed or quietly killed. Everyone operated under the idea that if they would just ignore it and pretend it didn't happen, things would go back to normal.

They didn't.

Not at first anyway.

Naturally there was a public outcry. Everyone wanted to know just what the hell had happened in Manhattan and the government was at a loss as to what to do, mostly because many of them didn't know what the hell had happened either. Alex had gotten rid of most, if not all, of Blackwatch's existence while the higher ups in the US military had taken care of the rest. Any and all files on Blacklight, Elizabeth Greene, Alex Mercer, or Pariah were deleted en mass, with the people who had created those files killed off. Most scientists didn't survive the initial outbreak, while others were brutally killed by Alex after some of them tried to experiment on his sister after she got kidnapped by Greene.

Blackwatch did have a few bases scattered in different countries, but those were quickly destroyed by the US military after the whole situation went south. For the most part, there was so little evidence of what actually happened that people started believing the lies the government was spoon feeding them. Even when the remaining survivors who weren't killed off or bribed silent publicly told the world what really happened, no one would believe them. The whole thing sounded like a premise used in a video game rather than something that could actually happen in real life.

And after a few years of protests, national discussions, and angry rants at the president, things finally managed to settle down. Dana and Alex were no longer on the run anymore with Blackwatch gone, and with all evidence of Alex being a walking virus erased along with the rest of Blackwatch, soldiers finally stopped trying to kill him. And while things were kind of dull after the first few years of excitement, Alex was finally able to breath easy knowing no one was trying to kill his sister or use her as a hostage.

Then, five years later, the sparking vampires attacked.

How is it so far? Please give me feedback in the comments. All reviews are welcome, even the flames. I would love to improve on my writing.
