Day 21

Location = BLOCKED

Time = BROKEN

Mind = RECOVERING

You are promoted to rank 15 You have access to all the information. But you can check it only under surveillance. Even with that 99% of information cant be accessed by you. As said by your superior as your mind is not yet ready to understand. Now you want an answer and to get then you must rank up or steal it from them.

You meet Mandeep in your small base.

Mandeep: What do you want to talk about?

You: I got promoted but still can't access a lot of info. They have so much but I can't access if I check it in front of them they will know that I am suspicious.

Mandeep: How about attack their base?

You: That's a bad idea. They will call all the forces and before we can access it move that info.

Mandeep: I can fight them but then the info will be gone. *Sigh* Let's focus on finding that thing.

Mandeep: Anne is already trying to find info about that from the severs.

You: You do trust her right?

Mandeep: I am the one who kept saving her from getting replaced for 20 years. I do trust her. Now I help her get replace so she can help us. It was not my choice to get her to help us. But she is resourceful as she can connect and disconnect from master servers.

You: Master servers? Well, you got any lead.

Mandeep: Not any but many many leads.

Mandeep shows you the console in which the data is stored.

Mandeep: I have a question.

You: About what?

Mandeep: Did you notice anything weird like that you though happen but in reality, it didn't?

You: I don't think I did. Wait I did notice the new-

Mandeep stops you before you speak.

Mandeep: No need to tell me. It is better if you keep it a secret.

You: What is going on?

Mandeep: A lot but I can't tell you right now.

You: Why?

Mandeep: Just trust me.

Carle enters the room and sees you two talking.

Carle: What are you talking about?

You: I was talking abo-

Mandeep: He was talking about you.

Carle: About me.

Carle looks at you.

Carle: Really?

Mandeep: He was talking about he wants to talk with you in private about his feeling.

You: What?

Carle: What?

Carle looks at you now a bit shy.

You: There is nothing like that he lying.

Carle: Still if you want to talk then? Well, nevermind.

Carle: Mandeep.

Mandeep: Ye-

Carle punches Mandeep sends him flying.

Mandeep: Ouch! Not like I didn't deserve that.

You help him stand. Mandeep walks up to Anne while she is searching for more leads.

Mandeep: Let's listen to what you are listening to.

Anne: Wai-

Mandeep takes her headphones.

Mandeep: OH MY GOD.

You: You alright?

Mandeep: Yeah she is listening to anime music.

Mandeep: let's focus on the leads.

Anne: ok so the first record I found was from 35000 years ago.

You: That during the singularity wars but then the machines decide to co-exist right.

Mandeep: Yes, but during those times some chose to oppose even many human joined robots. But in the end, it was all fixed. What's next Anne.

Anne: Next is the war for colonization.

You: A lot of people got killed that why there were so many terrorists in the past.

Mandeep: The government named every opposer terrorist. I saw it all happen.

Anne: Next was during the battle for trade.

Mandeep: That was just politicians doing politics and people getting killed.

Anne: Then during the biggest and longest war The contact war.

Mandeep: I remember that when humans found intelligent life. Every one of the species was destroyed due to miscommunication.

Anne: Next for the next 15000 years there was peace.

Mandeep: Until the Great extinction.

You: That was the biggest war. So many people got killed.

Anne: Next was the war against terrorism that was about 4300 years ago.

Mandeep: If you don't agree with the government you die.

You: What if the terrorist actually were in the wrong?

Mandeep: You are asking me? You saw it yourself woman, child, even old people were not spared.

Anne: The activity increased in the last 500 years.

You: Something big is going on.

Mandeep: Even bigger than you think. But that why we are here.

Mandeep: Thank you, Anne.

Anne: No problem.

Midi:[ Mandeep, did you notice that too?]

Mandeep: [ I did ]

Midi: [ So you know all about the reason]

Mandeep: [ Yes I know about that]

Midi: [ Tell them then they deserve the truth.]

Mandeep: [ I am going to tell them now]

Mandeep: Everyone, I have something to tel-

The earth shakes with the force of the explosion. All four of you fall on the ground.

A hole opens in the wall. You see people coming in through it. They start to shoot Mandeep.

Carle saves him using the shield.

Mandeep: Get them out of here. I take care of these motherfuckers.

Carle helps you to escape. In your way, you fight to get out of the building.

Mandeep: Told you not to make this personal.

Mandeep power up his laser cannon overdrive it and then a huge beam of light kills all the people in the room.

Mandeep:* Heavy breathing* That's all that you got?

A woman walks out of the cloud of smoke with metal claws.

UNKNOWN WOMEN: We haven't even begun Mandeep.

As you escape you hear explosions and then you see the whole building fall. You continue to hear more explosions and then quiet. You run back to see what happened. You see Mandeep holding the head of the woman dismember from the body.

With the blast of the laser, the women's head explodes into pulp.

Mandeep: FUCKING BITCH.

Saying that he feels unconscious.
