In a laboratory....
Red, yellow, blue, purple, and many color variants of the liquid are stored in dozens of bottles and neatly arranged in a shelf.
It was not an ordinary liquid, but rather the result of a very brilliant, yet most controversial, discovery.
The liquid is a serum capable of manipulating genes between humans and animals, where users of the serum can use the abilities and physical strength of the animal - x.
However, the discovery certainly attracted the attention of many people. Starting from the government and military to the mafia and ordinary people.
Especially groups that want power and wealth, of course, are very eyeing the data to make the serum can be produced independently. Then used alone or marketed at a high selling price...

A man in all white clothes, looks busy arranging a room. A lot of equipment that doesn't know what it's called is strewn here.
Naturally, his name is also a scientist and researcher. Maybe too busy or late with work to make it impossible to tidy up a room that is usually messy.
If there are researchers who suddenly tidied up the room, it means that that day there will be important people who will visit. Whether it's a boss or a government person.
Sure enough, before long, the handphone in the man's pocket, rang. The man immediately reached into his pocket and received a call.
''Tit...!" The man pressed the receive button.
"Hello darling... How, is it done?" A female voice came from the phone.
"Yes, this is again cleaning up the room. Anyway, Melvin's coming home from school at what time, ma?" Ask the man back. He seems to be talking to his wife.
"Actually, afternoon... But I'm going to get permission from the school so I can take him. Didn't papa promise, repeated the 15th year we will take him to the workroom papa. That's also what she asked for."
"Yes, honey... Papa remembered. Because there were guests, too, so now we can clean up."
"Okay, then I'll pick her up now. Fear of running out of time because of long commute." Said wife.
"Alright, be careful on the road..." The man's message ends the call.
A few hours later...
A luxury sedan car entered the gate of a third-story building, but it was quite spacious.
At first glance, the area looks ordinary. Unlike other research sites, the area had no guard at all. Because indeed the area is deliberately made with ordinary residential atmosphere, so no one will realize that the place is the best place of discovery this century.
Of course, if there are guests, they will not be taken to the work area, but all guests will be accepted at a place very far from the location of the research and manufacture of the serum.
Because what came was his own family, namely Melvin and his wife, so he did not have to fear that the place was found by an unwanted person. It was also because he had promised to show Melvin his study on his 15th birthday.
"Pa...!"The luxury car stopped right in front of the building.
A woman and a 15-year-old boy got out of the car. Although the place is very secret but as the wife of a top researcher, of course she has visited the place several times.
"Come, Melvin... We meet papa, it looks like your father is not aware of our arrival. Or maybe fall asleep because of fatigue." Said his mother, speaking to Melvin.
"No, ma... Looks like papa has a guest." Answer Melvin.
"Why do you know...?"
"Look, ma... There are a few cars. Isn't he alone?" Melvin pointed to a plot of the area parked by several cars, but it was irregular.
Mama Melvin looked in the direction she was pointing, then nodded. "Yes, it seems like papa's guest is also in a hurry." Reply mother.
"Of course not... Mama will scold your papa if until this time it's off. If necessary, we drive out the guests ourselves." Melvin's mother defended.
Melvin was touched by the words of his mother. She feels very grateful to have a mother who understands her feelings, where many parents consider a child's will is just a casual feeling.
"Thank you, ma..." Melvin said, sincere."
His mother stroked Melvin's head. " You don't have to thank me. Papa's promise is my mom's promise too." Melvin's mother smiled.
They then enter. Although the room there is very much and winding, but Melvin's mother knows, which room will be addressed.
Because indeed the place has never and will never receive guests, it is natural to look lonely.
Along the hallway, only the light of the lights accompanied them. Because there is no one or assistant of a researcher who works there.
A few meters before arriving at the intended room, several men in black stood firmly on the lips of the door, acting like security guards.
At the sight of the situation, Melvin and his mother paused for a moment. It seemed like there was doubt in their hearts, whether they would break through or wait any minute.
They also saw a man standing by the side of the door, entering the room when they saw them and shortly exiting again. It seems to be reporting their arrival.
After thinking for a moment, Melvin's late mother strengthened her resolve. He'll come in and drive the guest inside, no matter how important the guest is.
His mother then pulled Melvin's hand, walked rather quickly. But when they got to the door, what they saw was terrifying.
"Pa... Papaa....!" Melvin's mom is hysterical. With a quick response, immediately ran inside.
What Melvin witnessed at this time, made him scared half to death to not know what to do.
Inside, his father was already in a condition of bonded, mouth held captive, from the head flowing a torrent of red blood that pooled on the floor. Even worse, some of his fingers were already separated from where they should be.
"Iyaang...! What the hell is going on. Why is this so?" Melvin's mother kept screaming, seeing her father's helpless condition.
His father wanted to say something, but his voice did not come out because it was still gagged.
Realizing that, his mother immediately pulled the cloth that was clogging his father's mouth.
"Ma, hurry up and bring Melvin... Ti, just leave me, leave this place immediately...!" Melvin's father was stammering but full of pleading.
"How is it possible...! Where might mom leave papa. Moreover, papa is already like this. What's going on...?!" Melvin's mother is crying.
"Quick, ma... Just listen to me this time."
"No, pa... Nay! Mama's gonna call the police" Melvin's mom said as she pulled the phone out of the bag she was carrying.
Shortly after pressing the intended number and put the phone in the ear, suddenly a loud slap hit the phone as well as hit the cheek of Melvin's mother. The slap managed to make Melvin's mother bounced, even to make her cheeks bleed due to colliding with teeth.
"Yes, you are lacking...!" Maki Melvin's father towards the man who treated his wife harshly.
But instead of stopping, the man once again kicked hard part of the stomach, precisely in the heart. The kick made Melvin's mother lose her breath and lose her life.
Melvin's eyes glared, watching his drooping mother and being silent for a moment. The fear he experienced was getting bigger, but the pain in his heart hurt more than all that, when watching his beloved mother no longer speak.
"Mama, mommy, mamaaa...!" Finally Melvin let out a voice that had been restrained from the beginning.
Seriate...
