Archetypes Forces, A. F, A.F, Hans Christian Andersen: My Life as a Fairytale, A.F, Full Metal Panic!, フルメタル・パニック!
The story takes place in the future, the year is 2119. A dangerous container is to be secretly loaded into medical transport ship which goes into the earth orbit because it's forbidden to store dangerous container on earth.
It's so secret that no crew members on the ship were told about the container's contents or any possible hazzards. The truth is, the container carries a dangerous living body in some form like liquid / worm which is capable of reading DNA information of other living beings and then transforms itself as an exact copy. Of course, the original object then will be killed.
