...Then the World Cried
World peace has finally been established, but only through humans being given a common enemy; this threat, either from space or a plane of existence above their own, does not discriminate between gender, age, religion, race, ethnicity, or other factors. Each has their own viewpoint on whether these beings are benevolent or malevolent, but all agree that they must be battled in order for the human race to have a chance of survival. Are they arbiters, justice-seekers, or bloodthirsty villains? Why is it that they kill? What is it that they desire to accomplish from committing these crimes?
Those in the Department of External Affairs, a cabinet in the world's new government, are those who underwent and survived an experimental operation to alter their DNA and the chemical composition of their brains. However, as it remains in the testing stages, they have to take these in small doses; one pill, similar to an anti-depressant, can cause a surplus of a certain chemical to a particular area of the brain, thusly causing a near superhuman change that lasts for a certain amount of time. Through this, they can fight these peculiar beings on a similar level, on a level that brings them a chance of victory, though not without its potential consequences...
Warnings: This will contain LGBT themes, graphic depictions of violence (blood and gore), strong language, and the use/abuse of a fictional drug and alcohol. We will add additional warnings as they come, if needed.
