USH'S MATRIX GAME: FIRST ASSIGNMENT- 'Codecracker'

Wait...WHO?!

"I'll explain later Coeus, hell of a fight you put up, you might better go and lay down"

"Well no offence Captain but that is how she looked and that is the signal Ariadne got, it all matchs. I think Someone in Zion is behind this and if this is a machines work we are in serious trouble."

"Oh shit..." says Ariadne when she pulls her record.

Coeus and Fire, you suddenly get a very bad feeling about this as well.

"Contact Zion now, and find out what the hell is going on, this is too serious to wait, they directly jepordised a serious operation, and almost got half of us killed." I say to Finn.

(Thans for saving my ass Coeus, I apreciate it.)

"Celsius," says Marduk. "Jericho's ship was the Bounty, remember?"

-

"See what I mean?" says Dallas. "Bounty was destroyed in action six months ago.

Jericho and his crew are dead."

*looks at the record*

It simply confirms what Dallas just said.

"Well, she looks damn well for a dead girl!" says Ariadne. "The code matches, Dallas. That is her. And the guy was Loomis, that was another one of his crew, right?"

"It's some kind of trick," says Dallas. "You know what these machines are like!"

"well something went seriously wrong with the Bounty to say the least, were there any witnesses that can confirm she was actualy destroyed?"

"Yeah," says Dallas. "Hammer checked it out. Bounty was blown to pieces."

Oh god, youre right. But how?.....It was definately them.

(Perhaps their consiousness were uploaded by the machines somehow, and then transferred on to software. So tey are now replica programs of the Bounty crew.)

Marduk looks thoughtful.

"I don't know..." he says. "Jericho was... hmm..."

-

"Man was an idiot, anyway," says Dallas. "Something freaky happened when they killed him I guess, Odd things happen in the Matrix sometimes. Anyway, let's get this hunk back home."

"Our starboard engines are still out, Dallas."

"Ah, gee, does Dallas have to think of everything? Simply turn 270 degrees the other way if we have to!"

But...why would Zion do this to us...? unless this was a cover for another mission...but why would they put one, nay, two of their ships into a VERY dangerous mission? It doesn't make sense...Damn, my head hurts, but this is too important to sleep through...

(No problem, Celsius... 😉 )

I guess you'll want to read what was said whilst you were typing that, Jedi.

"Hmm I see two possibilities:
A) The machines found away to duplicate our codes and give and pass of programs as humans -which would be a serious *****-
B) The crew from the Bounty survived the explosion some how and are still performing an op. inside the matrix
C) They got their mind split from their body and somehow survived it."

*pauzes for a moment*

"What was the last mission the bounty was on?"

"Doesn't say," says Ariadne.

"It was a testing run," says Dallas. "They weren't on a mission. And get to that cockpit, girl!"

ok, there is no reason to think that machines would want to use the RSI's of humans to subvert their own operations, unless...*realizes something* NOBODY is to meet with them, until we figure out what happened, because if they ARE programs, or working for the machines, but they don't know it, then it could be disastrous for us...

There are too many holes in this...

(this is the beginning of the Philosophy thing, isn't it, ush?)

Whispers to Ariadne: "you better do what the old man says"😉

"Where do you want me captain?"

*stands at attention* You havemy full cooperation, Cap'n. Whatever you need me to do, just say it.
