A bipedal creature walked through the halls running as quick as he could to a meeting he was late for again. He kept going until he came to a door that he put his hand on it which made the panel turn green and the door opened. As he entered he composed himself as he started to hear the chief scientist talk to the high council.

“Sir, I promise you the Project will work we promise just get everyone down into shelters that we created for this project no changes or adjustments will be made we have one path and so little time. We can’t afford any delays.” He finished he turned to his presenter.

“And I have Professor Jason ready to present the project and he will fill you in on the details.” He said as Jason stepped forward.

“Thank you.” He said as he stepped up seeing all the generals and President Nichols was present as well.

“Please, Professor go on with the presentation.”one of the generals said.

“Well as you know most of the fighting is above us in our own territory. We may have a solution or solutions to be exact. Just recently as we were expanding the facility we found two eggs that do not match any known dinosaur egg recorded in history. So it got us thinking it could be a new discovery, but when we analyzed it, we found out that they were dragon eggs.” Jason said.

“You expect us to believe you found mythical creatures in the dirt when at our peak of our power we never could find one?” A general which was from England asked as he looked very skeptical.

“That was our first reaction too, but we found that apparently there was an age before the dinosaurs. So we called it the “Hell Fire age”. An age named after the myth that a dragons fire was as hot as the pits of hell. Now your probably wondering ‘yes you found eggs what does this have to do with our solution?’ I have the solution.” Jason said.

“Mind explaining Professor?” The president asked with curiosity in his eyes.

“Of course mister President. It means that everything we asked, we question we theorized. It was all true. Every single detail. We found out that a dragons weakness was its stomach for both genders due to the scales being touch and none flexible and we also found out that their scales are invincible to modern day weapons. 50 cals. Doesn’t even make a dent.” He said as an American general asked what he hoped would never be asked.

“I think I speak for all of us when I ask. How the hell did it get in our country, why not somewhere else? If these creatures were damn near invincible, then where they all go?“ he asked

“We have a theory while they had indestructible scales, their body was very susceptible to pain. One shot to the stomach and they would go down. Enough time for humans to kill them. We may have an idea for a project. We have three modes of what we want to make.” He said as a holographic appeared before everyone.

“We are planning on making a machine, three types. The Alphas, Thetas, and the Omegas. Small, medium, and large.” Jason finished.

“de quelle taille parlons-nous?” The French general asked which made Jason confused.

“He says what size are we talking about?” A women said as she relayed the translation to him.

“We are talking, when it comes to the Omegas? About I don’t know somewhere between 2-3 stories tall for the Omegas. With enough fire power to take out a whole platoon of infinity and aerial units out within I don’t know, couple of hours at most.” Jason said.

“Now as for the Thetas they are used for troop and vehicle deployment. We have a project for a Theta called “Project Dark Cloud”.” He said as a holo image appeared showing a half built dragon while having other worker bots putting pieces of metal and wielding the wires together. It’s eyes where lifeless as it stared straight ahead at nothing.

“Well I’ll be. We may have a chance.” A general Spoke up while the others were surprised.

“We have some alphas already in testing. One is standing out from the rest, which is concerning some of the engineers.” Jason said as a picture of the Alpha appeared.

The Alpha in question was short. It only went up to Jason’s mid section and he was 5’ 8 which wasn’t very tall in his standers, but he might have been the shortest, but his knowledge made up for that. It showed the black and maroon body as the top of its tail had a shape of a scythe at the end of it. It showed footage of how quick, agile, and smart it was.

“And how is this concerning?” The U.S general asked with interest.

“It means they could become self aware. While that is bad we think we may have a solution to this problem as well. It’s a digital conscious transfer or DCT for short. It means we transfer a human conscious over to a machines and allow them to live on we never have to worry about losses. With this we are creating pilots for the Thetas and Betas to control the Alphas.” He said as he pushed a button which made two humans appear as they trained with machines made for training elite units.

“Is there a catch?” A general asked.

“Yes, the catch is, neural linking technology. Which is something we have trouble with. I have volunteered myself for this project and it has seen some successful results. All we need now is a miracle and some time.” Jason said as he made the holo image disappear as he walked out and to the Alpha’s testing room.

The Alpha’s code name was Reaper. Jason saw how the Alpha stared with half opened eyes at the wall as he was deactivated.

“I hope you do well. We are counting on you.” He said before he walked out and turning off the light. He failed to notice his right eye began to glow purple as it stirred in its stationary slumber.

“I am the Demon”
