Prologue

The stranger pulled the hood of his long leather jacket against the cool night winds of the Kansas plains, watching the glow of the nearby human settlement and savoring the planetary implications of his next move. He had tracked the target this far and now, finally, the man's identity was known. In truth, he would never have picked him out of a crowd. Hesitant, luckless with women, twenty-six years old and still living with his grandmother -

No, cancel that. He turns twenty-six tomorrow. Remembering the birthday present he'd arranged for his target, the stranger twisted his face into something which could almost be called a smile. Sensing that the moment had come, the cloaked and hooded figure shrugged his body deeper into the folds of his jacket and continued his march into the unimaginatively-named Kansas City.

He wondered again if he'd found the right man - but then, Command had confirmed the DNA sample, and the stranger knew better than to question Command. The whole operation was strictly need-to-know and, for all he knew, even Command didn't get to see the full picture. But he knew that they had been the ones to choose the codename: Project Pandora. It was named after a myth that had remained popular on this planet for thousands of its years.

The stranger smiled again as he strode through the cornfields. Though his target couldn't know it, the birthday present he was to receive tomorrow would change the fate of the entire world. And, like his fellow human Pandora, all he had to do to set the plan in motion was open a box.
