A tall figure walked the halls of the massive M.B.L. World Headquarters. Oh how time changes he thought to himself. He tightened his fists and rubbed his palms. His hands were sore by time, by age. Something he had never thought would be possible, for him at least. Passing by a few Agents, he smiled. A scientist approached him and handed him a few documents.
"Mad67," the scientist said, "What I have in this file will prove our fears are true, that with the rapid spread of new metas, in less than a decade, the population will be more metas than normals, in a 3 to 1 ratio."
"How is project X coming along?" he asked, his tone serious, almost cold.
"We are almost set. Toxin X should be able to block off the Meta Gene, creating a future free of new metas, but as of now it is still to unstable in my opinion." The scientist paused, "This has not been shown in any tests, but I am afraid that changing the human gene and stopping evolution like this could have major side effects on nature and well-"
"Doctor, none of this has been proven by our years of testing. The time is finally right." Mad67 paused for a moment and looked out one of the huge windows of the Complex. "I would not do something to harm the environment. In fact, everything I do, everything I have ever done was for the greater good." Mad67 turned back toward the doctor, "Toxin X will be released into the water stream in 48 hours as planned."
"Yes, Sir."
Mad67 turned and returned to his office, held on the top floor. Upon entering, he knew he wasn't alone. Behind the desk sat a man, his hair gray and features worn with time, a scar stood out over his left eye. He turned to face "Mad67."
"Eimann, we have to talk!"
"Mr. Walker, it's a pleasure to see you again."
