Preface

The year is 2090, and nothing is left of the human race, except for the buildings in which they had placed so many years ago. I remember a time, when this place was full of life, full of knowledge. But then the humans had let that knowledge expand, which then led to their downfall.

It started out with a project called "Codex Lupine" A secret project in which the Government concealed from the rest of the mortal beings. Codex Lupine was a project in which involved wolves and science. Scientists from around the world had agreed to breed wolves to a large proportion, and use them in various tests. Cures for Cancer, war machines, and many more subjects.

But one day came, when a scientist had decided to tempt fate and break the laws of Nature. He had injected Nanobots inside the blood stream of the thousands upon thousands of wolves that they housed in their facility. But little did they know, that doing so was a big mistake.

Within years of the Nanobot injections, the wolves have begun to grow intelligent, and began to learn human languages, and even began to learn how to read. A new age was about to dawn for the humans, the age where communication between animal and man will finally be possible. But another group of scientists had thought that with this much knowledge, it should be used for warfare.

So a serum had been created to be injected into 50% of the wolves in which resided in the facility, these wolves would be called War Wolves. The Serum in which was injected inside them had the capability to remove all goodness in their heart and soul, leaving nothing but rage, anger and madness.

To be sure not to be attracted by the rabid beasts in which the wolves have become, they locked them up in high security until the army had come to pick them up. While the remainder of the wolves did not gain the vaccine, they remained normal.

But one day came, when a fetal mistake was made. Man had done the unspeakable, and fused metal into fur and flesh, and turned every single wolf into cyborg like monsters which defied the law of nature themselves. Drunk on power, the single scientist had made another serum which enhanced the brain waves of the Nanobots which were already injected inside the wolf's blood stream, as a result the wolves became super powerful.

Being able to now fully understand proper English, and be able to read and even figure things out, the wolves who were injected with what is now called Negative serum broke free from their imprisonment and began an on slaughter upon all mankind. The wolves were led by one individual wolf, who went by a strange name, this wolf had plans for the Negatives to bring forth the down fall of humanity, and leave wolf as supreme masters of the world.

The ones that weren't injected with the serum, or Positives as they call themselves were against such ideas as the Negatives possessed. So dawned the first Lupine War of the new age. Many lives were lost, but in the end, the two Packs went their separate ways, and never spoke to each other again.

But now, darkness begins to grow in the land in which the Negatives inhabit, as the leader named Xaro discovered an ancient Tome in which had been written by an alien race had been hidden away on the very planet, in which now was called Vandarea. He wished to find this tome in order to make a powerful device, which then would fuse all the continents together once more, to form what was once known as Pangaea.

However he faced a major complication, the text within the book can only be seen through an advanced piece of lens which was very rare to come by, and little did he know that as said lens had been fixated upon the eye of one of his natural enemies. Will this be the end of Vandarea, or possibly the beginning?
