CHAPTER 1
Knowledge
The Dominion Code, a book that holds crucial knowledge about the world and how to obtain unlimited power. Not a mortal soul knows how to obtain such a book and some say if you read it, your brain will explode from such a large significent amount of information. But that is just a myth and to the military the Dominion Code was a must have and for many years researchers conducted horrific experiments between animals and the human soul. It is said that a certain paranormal magic was discovered in the year 2999 that allowed the transfer of human souls and a list of many other abilites. This allowed the old to be young once more, for their soul could be transferred into a young, healthy body of their choice. If they could afford it that is. However, the only flaw was that they had to use a living human to create this transfer, and the result angered many. 4
Year 001X, a rebellion broke out between the citizens and the military of the country of what we know as the United States. The military easily disposed of the protestors and continued their research further. By the year 005X they had successfully completed an array of hybrid animals each with a human soul implanted into them. They could talk, speak, interact and feel emotion but at that time they were not humanly stable and turned against their creators. The current lab where they were contained was destroyed and they fled as insane criminals that devoured any citizen that resided in the area. The ruby colored stones that bound to their chests held the human soul in place, and if it were to be destroyed they would perish into a pile of ashes. 5
By the time the year 007X rolled around everything from one end of the world to the other had been demolished. For the military in the United States were not the only ones conducting the same experiments. On all four specific points of the globe insane creatures broke out, the world was now one giant bloodbath. And now everything is at a stand still in the year 009X. The decayed bodies of the unfortunate bystanders around the world are now gone and the buildings have rotted into ruins. 6
The human population is currently unknown and the only real mortals left are the experiments that ran loose but as the two years had passed since they ran freely they have become sane and have regained their memories. They are now humans trapped inside a beasts body and as scared as they are, many of them are either rotting in shame and sorrow or determined to get their original bodies back. And this is where Alucard's story begins

Okay well I just noticed this, so I'm going to review!...
Okay, the storyline was okay until the last paragraph. They're crazy monsters let loose, and then all of a sudden they regain their memories?? That's way too unrealistic! You should add something to say why they changed all of a sudden.
Also, you should add on to your chapter, although it's much more of a prologue than a chapter, because this is missing a lot of info. If you modify a couple of things, this could be a real good start for your story.
Thanks!
Yeah, I might replace this first chapter actually since this is alittle bit short and yes, it is kindof one big info dump haha. But without explanation I don't think people would get what was going on, or atleast not very clearly since I have so much information to let out about the story that would make it understandable. So I had to put most of it somewhere.
Oh and the numbers. I had posted this story on another site too and it showed up with numbers after each paragraph, I must have forgotten to delete them. x.x
But I'm glad you enjoyed it! And thanks for the comment, I appreciate it!
whoa! cool. i'm not a fan of info dumps but this was really interesting and is necessary to set the scene. i noticed something strange. at the end of each paragraph there is a number
is there a reason for this? the last paragraph doesn't have one...
anyways, this was really cool and original. i'll check out the rest of it
