400 years ago, OPERATION PHANTOM - X was launched to ensure the safety of everyone.
OP-X is a nano artificial intelligence nervous digital implantation, it's major function was to enhance and stimulate human survival system.
Planet Earth formally known as Zuloth, which means God's fury in a dead language, spoken over 18 centuries ago, has been massively contaminated, due to the solar/ space activities over time. Every 4th Century comes with a disaster, such as a rise of new species, unknown atmospheric condition and an entirely new and unpredictable ecosystem.
It's unfriendly to some of the previous species, sometimes give rise to new and dangerous species. Some of the pre-existing species dies because of these changes while the others species adapt and survive, like the humans always do.
Now it's the dawn of the 82nd century and every thing once more has changed,
So the journey of survival begins again.
Zucchini Peru a direct descendant of the great Peru Hamsini, who came up with the solution to the last change in the ecosystem by inspiring OP-X, was now embodied with the task of finding a solution out of the recent chaos in Zuloth, like he has been prepared for.
They all live in a saturated dome built by the people over the last 400years, it's meant to safe keep everyone until the new situation has been completely understood and a remedy has been found.
Zucchini gave strict orders that no one must leave the dome unless he says otherwise.
He put together his best team and set out to begin the wild study, they had oxygen tanks, practically dressed like astronaut but only more light in weight.

When they left the dome to begin researching, from the look from within their helmet, everything looked normal, they took samples of the sands, leafs and tree saps and returned back to the dome for examination.
They took it to their regular lab, each one of them took little from each spacemen they brought for study. But because they felt nothing different outside the dome, they were very careless, they let them selves get exposed to the unknown. They had only gloves on, no further protections.
Meanwhile Zucchini didn't return to the dome with them, he furthered his search with two members of the crew. They wondered around with no clue of what is out there, what they might find, or what might find them.
After a while, Zucchini heard a strange noise a little bit from where he stood, his other crew members weren't close enough to hear it, so he decided to check out what it was all by him self.
From a little distance, he saw an animal behaving strangely, it was obviously struggling with something, but Zucchini couldn't understand why or what was wrong with it, at least not from such distance.
Zucchini closed in slowly on the animal, and discovered that it was a moose, only that it was struggling like it needed breathable air but couldn't get any.
After a while the moose stopped moving and stretch out. Zucchini thought it was dead, so he decided to give some silent moments as a sign of respect. After a few minutes,the moose awoke but something changed, it didn't show any signs of respiration or gaseous exchange, yet it was still alive, it wasn't breathing, at least not through its nostrils, it has found another way to filter the oxygen it needed for survival into its system.
Zucchini was surprised,he has never seen anything like it before, but he knew one thing for sure, that animal has just evolved and adapted to the atmospheric environment.
Zucchini knew that he has an eligible study, so while the moose retreated, he quick used a tracker gun to tag it so he could have its real time location on device.
He returned to the dome to see what others has found, also to bring his own discovery to the notice of his crew.
When he came back, his other crew members who returned about an hour ago told him that he couldn't go inside the regular lab, because the other crew exposed their samples wildly and it contaminated every thing and every one inside it. it was spreading fast so they sealed the room.
Zucchini was angry because he taught he trained them better, he asked to see them, so they took him , when he got there he looked through the transparent glass and found them looking like they were fried in a hot oil, the only thing that kept them alive was OP-X.
Zucchini left he checked the record on the lab system through the main Lab and saw the sample log of what each of them came back with, it contains the location of the sample and what it looks like.
Zucchini went and fetched those sample and conducted the research himself, he discovered an unknown gas, emitting from the tree sap, he knew that was what affected his other crew members, so he isolated the gas for studying.
After some months of studying the moose, Zucchini discovered that, the moose always goes back to the same place where he first found out about it, he knew that the moose always goes there for something, but he didn't know what it was.
So a day came and Zucchini made sure he closed in to see clearly what and why the moose always returns there, that was when he discovered the tree.
It was the same tree that caused sever damage to some of his crew mates, but this time, it was in an entirely different environment, the ecosystem around there was friendly.
The moose practically feeds off of the tree, that's why it returns there so often.
Zucchini took some saps from the tree and went back to examine and compare it with the other one, that was when he found that they are but direct opposition, one has massive destructive properties, while the other has incredible healing properties.
And Zucchini was amazed, he found a strong pillar that he'll build his research on, so he began studying it, trying to figure out how to improve it and make it available for everyone. And OP-19 began.

Days became weeks, weeks turned into months, and years.
After years of trials and errors, tests on animals that have almost identical biology as humans, He was finally ready for a human subject. Meanwhile about 5 of his crew mates has died from the contamination, and only 2 were barely hanging on but still isolated.
He used the first OPERATION PHANTOM-19 Syndrome he created and injected it into the same spot as the OP-X implantation.
Within 5 days his skin was restored but he now had difficulty breathing. He administered the syndrome to the last survivor of the crew.
Then he set out to find the moose, he captured and extracted a pant of its blood, he figured that the moose has developed immunity to what ever causes the breathing problem.
He combined the moose blood with the OP-19 Syndrome and re-administered to one of his subjects, at first he wasn't sure if it was a good Idea but he was out of options, so he proceeded with it.
About 2 hours later, subject became fully functional, then Zucchini knew he has won and lived up to his forefathers name "PERU.
Zucchini found a way to convert it into a nano AI implant and every one got the implantation and everything was back to normal.
Although not all part of Zuloth is safe for inhabitation, the people of Zuloth could live anywhere but not feed anyhow, they have to feed from the tree every now and then just to boost the power of the OP-19.
And so another 400years was secured,and Zucchini Peru was idolized for his devotion and brilliancy.
THE END....
