Generation Legacy Issue #13 "Genocide" - Part 1

Kelly & Cassie

SARAH replies, “Tommy is in his temporary quarters at the moment, shall I message him?”

Chance adds, “Yeah tell smarty pants we are coming down to talk,” She starts walking, “You guys coming, we got things to do.”

 

[Shalimar]

"Please do so SARAH." Kelly instructed the AI. The blonde follows behind Chance to Tommy's room wondering how she knew where it was, or really even just wondering what she was. Cassie's mutating personal history confused her at the best of times, but how a suddenly appearing twin could fit into it just made her head hurt.

"SARAH, are you always listening to everything that everyone says in the school? I mean what about people's privacy?" Kelly asks, wondering if Paragon was already going to be getting an earful about Chance and about them wanting to go stop Legion.

“All the time, but I maintain the privacy of the students unless they are in danger,” SARAH replies, “I try not to intrude though Kelly. It isn’t in my nature to do so, but I have been programmed to be inquisitive by nature.”

The girls arrive at Tommy’s room.

Cassie walks with Kelly, and her 'sister', still more than a little disturbed at the impact that a facet of her personality got to be 'free' of her and wander about.

 

[Shalimar]

"No offense meant SARAH, but that is kinda scary, you know all sorts of private stuff about everyone here and you get to be the one to decide who to tell it to." Kelly told the AI uneasily, "Do you think if you were in our position you might find that to be very invasive? We can't even tell you to not listen without you wanting to listen even more because you'll think we are doing something we don't want the UN to know about when the truth is we just don't want an audience for all of our personnel moments."

Kell stops at Tommy's door and knocls before calling out, "Hey Tommy, its us, can we come in?"

 

[Aenion]

“Bummer,” Kal replies, “That is all I use mine for.”

Sami laughs, “Yeah, I think looking at some upgrades would be a good idea; well let’s get going before we get left behind.” He walks towards the bus where the other students are already piling in.

Kal shrugs, “Ladies first.”

"Liar," Karen whispers jokingly at Kal, gently proking his ribs. The barefoot, patched jeans wearing teen just shrugged at Timothy's clothes comment, not really understanding what he was complaining about, not like his skin would tear clothing when he got angry or anything.

"Uhm... yeah sure we can do that," she replies to Timothy and Sami, she smiles at Kal and kisses his cheek before getting on the bus.

"It could be worse Tina. We could have to do the exact same thing tomorrow...oh, wait. Nevermind. We will," Ryan remarks. "At least it will be totally indistinguishable from real life. So no cheat codes, and with luck no hacking."

"No hacking is right," Mark agreed as he stepped into the staging room. So it's almost unsafe, hunh? Guess it could be totally unsafe.

 

[Agamon]

"No hacking is right," Mark agreed as he stepped into the staging room. So it's almost unsafe, hunh? Guess it could be totally unsafe.

"Yeah, tell that to Chaos," Anika says as she enters the staging area. "No offence, Gadget, but you and Tommy could spend a year doing nothing but upgrade the defences on this thing and Chaos could waltz right in, I'm sure. That little guy wigs me out."

"And, Ryan, this is practice. If it goes as badly as you say it will, we can change tactics for the real deal, okay?"

 

[Hammerhead]

"Yeah, tell that to Chaos," Anika says as she enters the staging area. "No offence, Gadget, but you and Tommy could spend a year doing nothing but upgrade the defences on this thing and Chaos could waltz right in, I'm sure. That little guy wigs me out."

"And yet the little punk is still too lazy to fix the problems caused by him and the rest of the Eternals. Now it's up to us to clean up the mess."

"And, Ryan, this is practice. If it goes as badly as you say it will, we can change tactics for the real deal, okay?"

"Let's just treat this mission as if it were the real deal, in every way. Okay?" Ryan says, trying not to sound too serious." Hell, it very well could be, if there were a reason for it.

 

[Tokiwong]

"Yeah, tell that to Chaos," Anika says as she enters the staging area. "No offence, Gadget, but you and Tommy could spend a year doing nothing but upgrade the defences on this thing and Chaos could waltz right in, I'm sure. That little guy wigs me out."

“None taken Anika,” Gadget replies as the UNJE Training Staff get the students prepared in their individual chambers. Gadget speaks, “Now once each of you is strapped in, you are going to feel a slight disorientation and then you will be in the Staging Area.”

Sure enough once all strapped in, hooked in, and the chamber sealed the system initiated and you feel weightless. Your limbs are limp as you feel like you are passing out and then. You are standing in a stark white area. Gadget stands with you and waves, “I hope you don’t mind if I stole this idea from a movie, okay… just a few basic safety protocols.”

She starts listing off the safety protocols, and how to access the emergency kill switch if needed. She finishes with, “And if anything really goes wrong I will be monitoring from the control station, and can pretty much stop anything… Chaos not withstanding… or interference from other supernatural baddies.”

Tina glances to Ryan, “Yeah absolutely nothing can go wrong… right…”

“Okay well any questions before we get started?” Gadget asks.

Downtown Mudaba Adin

“Alright we are here guys, remember meet back in here in about six hours at 10:30 PM, don’t be late okay?” Mr. Kincaid repeats for perhaps the tenth or so time. Once the doors open the students pile out into the shopping district. Despite the storm just a few days ago the city looks great, clean, and very modern.

Sami breathes in the air, “Oh man, this is so great… where to first guys?”

Kal walks out, “I don’t care, just as long as we grab some food at some point.”

Back at the Institute

SARAH replies, “No offense taken Kelly.”

Tommy’s door opens and he stands from his desk, the monitor going blank. He smiles, “Kelly, Cassie… and Cassie?” He smirks, “What insane thing just happened now?”
