The Chase
Description
It's the year 2080 and the world is different from how we know it. Everything is now electronic, built for a fast lifestyle, and flying vehicles are the norm.
But this isn't the only change.
The government of South Korea decided to form an organization which would take lead in a project that would enable them to take over the world... one person at a time. This project is named EXO.
Genetically mutating 300 sets of DNA to become the most powerful, most intelligent, and the strongest individuals on Earth, this project was one that would be the biggest success any government had achieved in the history of planet Earth.
However, after an incident, the project was destroyed and only twelve subjects survived.
After successfully escaping the laboratory, these twelve subjects were scattered worldwide to keep them safe and hidden from the Organization, which still remained fully operational despite the laboratory in ruins.
Angered, the Organization set out to find those twelve subjects and make them puppets of their operation once again.
Will the subjects be safe? Will they find a way to avoid the Organization and survive? Who will be stronger: the Organization or the twelve subjects?
This is the beginning of the chase.

Foreword
The Director sat at his large glass conference table, fingers drumming rapidly against the surface in frustration. Every citizen in the country of South Korea had heard about the incident with the laboratory of SM Institute of Health that happened ten years ago and they were still gloomy because of it. This meant that whatever cure for diseases that SM were experimenting with had been lost. Those born with diseases that had no cure were distraught and feared they would die before SM could conduct another experiment. Little did they know this was all a cover up for the real operation.
"Where are those twelve subjects? Anyone get any word from the others where they could possibly be residing?" asked the Director of the operation, Lee Soo Man and the only response he received was a head shake from all.
He looked around the table at the handsome, young men who were taking a part in this operation. He knew that the previous scientists who worked for them planned the shut down of the operation—it wasn't an accident. There had been no sign of the twelve subjects or the scientists who had escaped with them since the incident. He knew exactly who they were but there had been no evidence of them even existing anymore because searching for them through legal documentation had been a failure. The only conclusion he had come to was that they had changed their names and adopted a new identity.
"I want you to do anything and everything you can to find all of them. All twenty four. I want them brought to me alive. If they try to resist, drug them. But I want every last one of them brought to me. Do you understand?!"
A chorus of heads nodding followed the command bellowed by the Director. The spies, capturers, and assassins bowed their heads afterwards and stared at the table as the Director stood up and began pacing across the floors.
"I want you guys to inform the scientists that we will begin a new operation. We will call it Project Infinite. If the twelve subjects of Project EXO are ever found, it is up to Project Infinite to bring them down and to me. We cannot have these twelve roaming around the Earth. They are our greatest and most powerful creations and they belong to us. They will forever belong to us. Give Project Infinite what Project EXO didn't have so that they are more powerful. They are only designed specifically for the search of Project EXO. No other motives shall be attempted. Do you understand me?"
"Yes, Director!" came the harmonious replies of the men.
"I want this project begun at midnight. Get to it!"
