Konoko sneaks into the so-called "[[TCTF Science Prison]]" to find Dr. Kerr, who tells her about the solution he developed with her father. They had named it a "[[Daodan|Daodan Chrysalis]]". When spliced with human genes, it was supposed to make a new body that would be greatly superior to the gene donor's. Two Chrysalises were started growing, one based on Hasegawa's daughter, Konoko... and one based on his son Muro.
Konoko sneaks into the so-called "[[TCTF Science Prison]]" to find Dr. Kerr, who tells her about the solution he developed with her father in order to allow humanity to survive the growing pollution. They had named it a "[[Daodan|Daodan Chrysalis]]". When spliced into a human body, it was supposed to allow the host to rapidly adapt to dangerous environments. Two Chrysalis prototypes were started growing in the lab, one based on Hasegawa's daughter, Konoko... and one based on his son, Muro.


Dr. Kerr reveals that they could only obtain funding by making a deal with the Syndicate. At first their work was undisturbed by their funders, but one day the Syndicate raided their labs. They captured Dr. Hasegawa and Muro, but Kerr escaped with Konoko (and the Chrysalis based on Konoko's DNA, apparently) and fled to the TCTF. When Griffin, the head of the regional branch, heard that the Syndicate had implanted young Muro with their Chrysalis, he forced Kerr to implant Konoko with their own as a countermeasure should the Daodan process produce a superhuman. Konoko was seven at the time.
Dr. Kerr reveals that they could only obtain funding by making a deal with the Syndicate, who eventually raided their labs to take the Chrysalis when they realized its potential. They captured Dr. Hasegawa and Muro, but Kerr escaped with Konoko (and the Chrysalis based on Konoko's DNA, apparently) and fled to the TCTF. Griffin, the head of the regional branch of the TCTF, forced Kerr to implant Konoko with the Chrysalis as a countermeasure in case the Syndicate did the same (Konoko was seven at the time).


By implanting a person with a Chrysalis, it would adapt to the biology which contained it, and grow as the host suffered damage, altering the body to prevent further similar damage. Eventually, the Chrysalis would replace the organs of the host with its own versions of such. The final form the host body takes is apparently determined by that person's "nature".
As a Chrysalis host suffers damage, it alters the body to prevent further similar damage; eventually, the Chrysalis has replaced all the organs of the host with its own improved versions. The final form that the host body takes, says Dr. Kerr, is "an expression of [their] true nature".


Before he can reveal more, a [[Black Ops|TCTF Black Ops]] soldier attempts to shoot Konoko with a lethal Mercury Bow. Kerr leaps in front of her, taking the shot. After killing Kerr's murderer, Konoko decides to claim revenge on the TCTF. First, she must escape the net that is closing down around her. To escape the Science Prison, she is forced to test the theory she has just heard, by diving into an acid vat and hoping that the Chrysalis protects her.
