Summary
What are the consequences for those who have been created or altered without consultation?
Disclaimer: I don’t own any of these characters. I just like to play with them every now and then.
PLEASE NOTE: This is not about religious views. This is purely a discussion between two fictional characters.
The philosophical questions are based on The Big Questions – Philosophy by Simon Blackburn. I have included, in no particular order, fourteen of the twenty questions raised by Simon Blackburn and have interspersed them with six of my own.
I am not a Philosophy expert. This fiction is written purely for fun.

Summary
Before Maximum Ride.
Before The Flock.
There were several experimental generations created of varying kinds, some successful, and some… not. These previous generations grew up only knowing their short lived lives within the lab they were created in. All of the pain, screams, and nightmares were a simple part of their everyday existence. None of them seeing the outside world, until one successful generation…
This generation was never meant to survive, and most of them didn’t, except for one. The Angel of Mercy. When she refused to be exterminated, her creators were forced to find a use for her. Fitting her to be a governmental assassin. She was later joined by two other survivors of the next generation. The Angel of Death and The Devil’s Advocate.
This trio of rejects made up The Fates, an assassin group that quickly became feared by the criminal underground for their ruthlessness. But not everything was about death and killing for these three nine year olds. Besides trying to find their place in the world, they were also sent out on retrieval missions, returning experiments and strange anomalies that the lab had interests in.
Their most recent mission… Recover the anomaly from New York City.
