Berserker leans back in his chair there is still more to do and he needs to keep his emotions high something he is a natural at. He closes his eyes and thinks back to the older days when he was hooked into the Matrix the days he really was a Berserker.
"Probably a good idea but I have no idea what I should say..." San replies quietly to Mors. "They haven't told us everything that happened, though, and I'm sure it's something they haven't said yet."
Gender: Male Location: Dreaming...Or am I living...
Fine, Burn, taking a break from piloting is sitting in the back with the rest of the crew.
"So yea, I don't get it. First we release this virus, then we get popped back into the real world, get the shit beaten out of us, then have to come and rescue you guys. Something gives, where is the Virus-boy?"
"We weren't part of the plan," Heph says. "At least not from Lo Qi's point of view. It's hard to explain, but basically he wants to shut down the Matrix to progress evolution. He could have done it without us, opening the Door, since he's got Jericho..."
Heph sighs.
"But basically, the Virus is faster than any Agent I've met. Try killing him? He walks around bullets. He destroyed a dozen Agents, and since he's heading towards the City, he's probably destroyed dozens more.
"If we don't get the Shield to our old friend at the Pagoda, then the Matrix will die."
"Yeah, you're right. I may as well try." San replies to Mors, before moving over to where Azrael is sitting by himself.
"Okay, I know you guys haven't told us everything that happened in here, and I know something happened because here you are sitting off alone. So I want to hear from you what happened with everything." San asks him.
Azrael looks up through another racking cough,
"You know the important parts, I think. We released a virus that is now going to destroy the world. Jericho told the others it was a plan of mine, and I suppose the others were desperate enough to believe him. Still, I can't pretend I don't feel betrayed by my so called crew.
"Then the Oracle turned up and let us out leave. We had little chat, too. She said something that I really don't understand. It's frustrating, all comes back to what she said the first day I met her."
"The rest was just Sennacherib again, and you know that bit."

"And they believed Jericho when he said that, despite the fact that none of us had any idea what was behind that door and had no way of finding out? Heph at least should have known better, he'd met Jericho before and he was the one that grabbed the key to begin with."
