This is the first one I watched!

It's so dark outside, it must be near three in the morning. The stars are blurring together too much for me to tell exactly what time it is. I stumble and almost fall over as Jack and I turn down the next ally.
     The Irishman was visiting for the next two weeks, and saying that we went a little overboard is an understatement. We'll have some massive hangovers in the morning. I still can't believe how much he drank for how short he is. His blood really is made out of booze!
     "Where'z the turn to yours street?", Jack mumbles, his words slurring. I gesture to just keep going down the ally. My words probably won't make much sense anymore.
     I stop walking when I hear something behind us. While I was turned around, something falls onto the ground with a wet flarp. I turn back to see Jack passed out and half laying in a puddle. Oh god, do I have to drag him home? My hazy vision makes out something sticking out of his arm, but my eyes go black with a sharp pain to my neck.

     It's almost dawn when the white van finally pulls up to the lab. The building is disguised as an abandoned warehouse, an elevator going down deep into the earth.
     I stand in my lab coat and watch as two young men are unloaded from the vehicle. Both are strapped to stretchers and heavily drugged. It's taken us months to find subjects with the correct gene mutations for this project. It was hard to track, the gene almost undetectable. But it has just enough of an influence to make the subject compatible with the program.
     I'm handed two separate files as the men are taken into the warehouse. Each has the picture and names of the subjects. They're both healthy carriers of the needed gene. No birth defects or injuries. They will do nicely for the program.
     I ride down the elevator with the subjects in tow. This project is heavily funded by various weapon companies. Our goal is to make expendable soldiers; vessels that will follow orders to the very end. After years of research, it may finally be achieved.
     My team and I will use the DNA of pre-existing humans to grow duplicates. The copies, also carrying the rare gene, will be modified to be stronger and faster than normal humans. The possibility of extra limps and special abilities has also come up.
     One of the things we cannot predict is the emotional stability of the vessels. Removing personality and emotion from a mind is a very delicate process. They may react badly and act unpredictability.
     This experiment was tested once before, but the vessel only lasted two minutes outside of the germination solution and quickly deteriorated. Hopefully these two vessels with actually open their eyes.
