On November 23rd, scientists at CERN in Geneva, Switzerland ran a short test on the newly completed Large Hadron Collider. For that brief period, protons swarmed back and forth along the seventeen miles of carefully constructed tunnel and slammed into each other with devastating force, generating power the likes of which had not been seen since the moment of the Big Bang. Just a few short hours. That was all it took for our world to be invaded. My name is Captain Memphis Stone, commander of the Hellstalkers, the armed response unit hastily assembled to face this growing threat. This is the story of the men and women under my command, those who stand in the gap and shed their blood to protect the rest of humanity from creatures that we never imagined we’d ever face, not even in our darkest dreams.

A year has passed since the initial incursion of otherworldly creatures in the wake of the Large Hadron Collider disaster. The men and women of HELLstalker One have been molded into a highly trained fighting force under the command of Captain Memphis Stone and remain the world's foremost defense against the hideous creatures that continue to invade our reality. When Project Cerberus intercepts scattered radio transmissions about strange creatures roaming the ice outside McMurdo Station in Antarctica, the HELLstalkers are dispatched to investigate. Arriving at the bottom of the world, Captain Stone and his team discover the research station abandoned, evidence of a fierce battle all around. A note suggests that the survivors might have attempted to reach the European station to the west. Stone and his men have no choice but to follow. As the HELLstalkers attempt to cross several miles of frozen landscape in the midst of a terrible storm, they are unaware that something unearthly is watching them from the darkness. Something that is determined to see to it that they do not make it out alive.
