The blood in my veins went hot and cold with every beat of my heart. My spine felt as thought someone were wringing it like a sponge, and every nerve in my back began to scream in silent agony.

A U.S. Army cargo plane brings twenty-three year old Damien Kane to Lafayette Air Field in Louisiana. He meets scientist Doctor Hutcheson who drives Damien an isolated scientific research station. Damien has been demonstrating bizarre physical ailments, and the scientists have taken a great interest in his health. Hutcheson provides Damien with a room, then goes to a lab to speak with his colleague Doctor David Manguy. After running a series of tests on Damien's blood, the scientists discover that the cells of his body are beginning to mutate.
Manguy later visits Damien's room. Overwhelmed with guilt, Manguy tells him about his true origins. Damien is the offspring of two deformed mutations known as Un-Men. In 1968, Manguy had developed a serum, which he had hoped would cure physical deformities. Damien was the only one of thirteen test subjects to survive the process. Now however, it appears as if his body's cells are going into regression. Damien doesn't know what to make of all of this, and has difficulty believing a single thing that Manguy tells him. To prove what he says is true, he brings Damien to a restricted section of the lab and introduces him to his "parents" - two Un-Men locked in suspended animation tanks. Damien loses his composure and collapses to the floor.
Doctor Manguy gives him a mild sedative and returns him to his room. Hours later, Damien awakens to the sound of a strange, disembodied voice beckoning him. Answering the summons, he unlatches the window to his room, climbs out and runs off into the night.
