Background

Bio: An classified military operative, tasked with handling the nation's most dangerous military missions. Referred to as the World's Greatest Soldier, he is relatively unknown to most of the world. Which is preferable to the Government who likes to keep their secret weapon under wraps. Before he was the Green Commando he was Lieutenant Arthur Massey O'Donnell. He started out as young boy who, along with his younger brother, wanted nothing more than to serve his country. Being avid fans of war films, the boys dreamed about being war heroes. To be beloved by the country they hold dear, what a magnificent feeling it must be! Both worked hard to enter the life of a soldier but once they did, things were not what was expected.

Arthur served tours in the Middle East after 9/11 began. He was eager to enter the deserts of Iraq and Afghanistan in hopes to bring down the people responsible for the Terrorist attacks and become a hero. When he and his brother met actual combat, things weren't quite what they believed it would be. they faced incredible moral conundrums when it came to the actual war. It was difficult to tell who was their friends or their enemies, as the Terrorists blended in with civilians. Sometimes it was too late to distinguished until they opened fired. Even worse was when they were faced with having to shoot down kids who fired upon them. The choices and horrors of war were slowly tearing them apart.

Arthur's life changed however after a suicide bombing gone awry. A building in a city that was away from the fighting, Arthur's battalion of soldiers were waiting for further orders. There were civilians nearby as one of them suddenly explode after a shot was fired. The soldiers ran for the exit but one of the civilians was trapped between some rubble. He could be saved so long as he quickly frees him. Risking his own life, Arthur saved the life of another, little did he know that he just saved the enemy. Fate sometimes rewards a man for his good deeds, but sometimes Fate can be cruel. He was in a helicopter at the time, with his brother as it was shot down by an RPG. The one who had shot him down was the man he saved a few weeks back. He was too disoriented and too injured to do anything to resist being captured. The only thing he could see was brother's body laying amongst the wreckage, he couldn't believe that because of him, his brother was killed. The Terrorists kept him alive within a POW camp. Arthur spent the next many months with the Political Prisoners, other Soldiers, and people who crossed them. He found it strange that the Terrorists would keep so many people. He knew that Terrorists did capture Americans and Soldiers from time to time to leverage against his nation. Yet it seemed to be an unusual amount, little did he know that this cell was working for higher powers.

After suffering this brutality, his silver lining would appear during a prisoner transport. Apparently, U.S. Soldiers were approaching too closely to the camp and in order to keep their prisoners they had to relocate them to a more private location. Their prisoner caravan was assaulted however but it wasn't by the U.S. Military. Rocked and thrown around in a truck, Arthur was once again disoriented but he could tell from amongst the smoke and wreckage that they were attacked by unknown hostiles. They looked more like mercenaries with top of the line garb and weapons, these were not simple Terrorists, these guys were trained militants. He wasn't interested in being captured or killed so he did his best to sneak away from the wreckage. The Militants could have tracked him down but felt the desert would do their job. At first they would have been correct as Arthur collapsed from dehydration and fatigue from running for several miles. He would have died if he wasn't saved by a mysterious man who brought him to a hidden oasis.

The man healed him and nurtured him back to health. Arthur never got the name of the man, but he did tell him that he was just a simple shepherd. Arthur was confused on how he healed him or where he even was. The Shepherd told him that this was a secret garden, a remnant of the fabled Garden of Eden. He said deep beneath them was the Garden forever lost to the Deluge. Yet, a spring appeared and the waters which bore the Tree of Life, have come to the surface. Which is why there was so much life and vegetation in this one spot compared to death and desolation of the desert around them. Arthur was confused as to why he brought him here, how could this stranger trust him. He said he couldn't but he had been watching him for a long time. Ever since he saved his enemy from death and even how he treated his fellow prisoners in the camp, some of which, where evil men. He felt there was an inherent goodness about him, which is why he healed so cleanly from the waters. The Shepherd brought him back to civilization, from there he found a group of American Soldiers who brought him back to base. Secret Agents from the CIA, where curious about how he managed to escape and survive his ordeal.

They brought him back home for questioning. Arthur described his years he fought for his country, including his time as a prisoner, and him being assaulted by unknown hostiles. He left out the Eden Oasis and said he was healed by concerned citizens. His description conferred the Government's fears that Spite is behind the Terrorists in the Middle East. They offered to put him back in the field but not as Arthur O'Donnell, but as someone who could strike fear into their enemy's hearts, the Green Commando. He felt that he should tell his family that he was in fact alive, even though he was pronounced KIA. But the Government felt that no one would look for a dead man, making him perfect for their uses. That and he was a highly skilled soldier, becoming a Green Beret during his service having served multiple tours in the Middle East. Yet, what was the deciding factor was that their Intel believes that his brother did not die in that crash. His body was never recovered. He was still out there. Arthur listened intently, here was his opportunity to fix his greatest mistake. If he could rescue his brother then he could face the world again...he agreed. He was given a new uniform and a green eye mask, he said why did he look like some superhero? Apparently the Government was reinstating an old Spec-Ops program that used odd and extraordinary individuals to complete the most dangerous of military missions. The mask helped further a stigma of mystery amongst war legends, the legends of the unknown soldier. As the Commando, Arthur was charged with leading a group of quite extraordinary soldiers as they are tasked with uncovering the secrets of hostiles, especially secrets that pertain to Spite.

So begins...

Prologue: Humanity and Beyond

The Universe....it's a big place out there. Within the infinite span of the cosmos is it really just fantasy, to think that there may other be forms of life? Well probability wise, it is illogical to believe that there isn't an indefinite amount of lifeforms and civilizations out there. In fact it is illogical just to believe that there is only one form of sentient life. Yet, who does believe in the illogical? Who is so vain or so ignorant to believe that their world is the only world with life on it? Humankind is. Yet, one shouldn't blame the Humans for this illogical conclusion, they have yet to see any proof otherwise....or have they?

Welcome to the Earth! A veritable paradise within the infinite span of the cosmos. It is here the Human Race calls home and it is here they remain, not always blissfully, unaware of the Universe surrounding them. They do say ignorance is bliss but denial is a whole different story. While the world at large does not believe in the fantastic or the Supernatural, thinking that this sort of thing is all fantasy! Although many are ignorant there are plenty more who have experienced these things and there are those who deny the proof. Many of the world's government and scientific communities deny these claims of the unthinkable, writing off those that believe as insane. Yet, when they are delivered absolute proof and they deny it, is that anymore sane? Many people from the shadows have worked to keep these people silent and have worked to seal away all evidence. Is it still just fantasy?...Or is the unimaginable real?

To the world these are all just wild speculation. But what if I told you that soon, what we believe to be unreal will become a thing of reality? What if the world was heading to some great apex that would spin the world on an entirely new axis? The truth of the matter is, that our world is changing. More and more, sightings of the fantastic are being reported more frequently, everything for UFO Sightings, to Monster Sightings, to reports of Humans doing Inhuman things. Is this all just speculation or is it cold hard proof? We are all heading for some great unknown and while the population will not understand and may even resist this change, they will not be alone. This change will bring great danger but it will bring great security as well. There are people out there right now. What looks to be ordinary Men and Women are actually far from ordinary. They work to understand themselves and the world around them. All the while preparing for a great change that will not only change the ordinary but the extraordinary as well.

And just who are these people you ask? Why they are you. Whoever you may be you have something special, something that this world desperately needs, even if it doesn't acknowledge that it needs you. Although the biggest question isn't who they are, they all very well know who they are, even if they are confused. No, the greatest question to ask is how they will change the world? Not every change is good and some change may be change for the worst. After all we are only Human and the unfortunate thing about Humanity, is their capacity to do great good but also do great evil. We have no idea who lead the charge for change but I can assure you, a struggle will ensue for the betterment of the planet. A struggle that will push all parties involved to the edge, but lets not be so dark shall we? This battle has yet to take place and the worst of it is still to come. No at this moment in time we look to the seeds of change. They are being planted as we speak.

As we speak, people from all over the world and even beyond are discovering more about themselves and the world. Yet none of them understand the gravity of it all. Many are still self-absorbed into their own worlds to consider they are stepping into a world far larger than their own. This is the story about these extraordinary beings and their trials and tribulations. This is a story about their growths, their highs and their lows. It is a story about discovery and it is a story about destiny. We now enter a world that still seems ordinary but underneath lies something quite the contrary. I welcome you to enter a world that is still Human as I ask you change it into something that is....Beyond Human.

Chapter 1: The Beginning

Welcome to the beginning of a new world...no wait scratch that. Welcome to the end of the old world. Yes that is much better. Don't worry it's not the apocalypse or anything like that. No it's more like the end of an era...and trust me the times they are a changin'! As Bob Dylan would sing. Anyway before I ramble, allow me to introduce myself, my name is Andrew Benjamin Novus. You call me Andy for short, or if you prefer by my moniker, Professor Extraordinarius! Kind of a mouth full yes, but I like it! It perfectly describes my life. It has been nothing short of extraordinary! Still, I am no the focus, well, not the whole focus. The real focus is on the everyday accounts of a whole slew of other extraordinary people! My accounts are just one little jigsaw in the puzzle of life. No, you need every jigsaw to solve the puzzle, so without further ado, how about we work on making these jigsaws fit shall we? *He then hums happily*

Ah yes, quite a bit of jigsaws I see...well, this is going to make for one long puzzle. I think every should sit down....*he then whispers*...it's gonna be a long one. Anyway, how about I let the big guy tell you a story, I'm sure from his perspective he won't leave out any details. *He then perks up and then motions you closer so he can whisper* The reason why won't is because he hardly says anything, he lets the characters do the work. *He then chuckles as the Professor moves away* Anyway take it away big guy! *He then leans in close again* And by him I mean all of you. *He then winks as he pulls away*

* * *

The Earth, it still turns as it ever did. The plants are still growing, the animals are still surviving, and Humanity is still progressing. Idyllic and average. But that is all about to change....we now begin your story.
