Matrix TNG Chapter 1: A new mission

Sithdarth · 08-01-2004, 06:32 PM

The incoming message signal blared on the bridge of the Morpheus, a high pitched annoying sound that no one ever became accustomed too. There was something strange about this mission Crypt, the ships operator, thought as he answered the message. He was more than a little shocked when the admiral of the fleet appeared on his screen. "S-s-sir," he stammered caught of gaurd, "to what do we owe this pleasure." After a quick puase the admiral answered, "We got a message from the Oracle. She has a mission for you." Again Crypt was stunned, "Us specifically?" he asked perplexed. "That's right operator; she asked for the crew of the Morpheus by name," replied. "She says to meet her where the Zion controlled region borders her own. Keep me infromed on this one operator. Zion out." Still a little off guard from the news Crypt went to wake and inform the crew of the Morpheus.

Virus sat at the Helm of the Morpheus watching the mist form within the cold dark caverns. A constant beeping caught his attention as the proximity sensors alerted him to the newcomers. He had to resist the urge to reach for the EMP switch as the group of Sentenels passed by, marking their presence but then moving on.

I still get nervous when I see those things. He thought to himself. Old habits die hard.

The faint clanking of hurried footsteps alerted him to movement back within the Main Cabin. "Crypt?" he called out. "Anything new to report?"

Zax sat behind his console quite bored. The Squiddiies as he had taken to calling them passed by. He let out a low sigh "Man why couldn't I have been around during the war." he said softly to himself. He took the moment to reflect on the stories he had heard of the era when machines and humans still fought, the feverish battles, constantly having to out run the sentinels.

He let out another sigh as he remembered the darker less glorious parts of war. Of ships, crewmates and friends all being lost in battle. He dismissed the thought and let his mind wander again this time to the missions he had been on since being awakened

Then he heard the blair of an incoming message his eyes widened for a moment "Maybe I'll get to have some fun today after all."

Sithdarth · 08-01-2004, 08:24 PM

Crypt called back to Virus, "We got ourselves a big important mission. Go set down and tell the others to meet in the main cabin. I'm going to see if Captain is awake." With that he headed for the Captain's cabin at the back of the Morpheus.

Captain, man did he hate that name but he couldn't shake it, stirred in his cabin. He had just barely heard the incoming message alarm and knew Crypt would be coming for him. I wonder what the hell Zion wants now, thought as he rolled out of bed with a loud thud. He stood up and hit his head on a cross beam cutting through his cabin. Cursing loudly he sat back on his bunk holding his head.

Virus cocked an eyebrow at Crypt's back. He decided to let the breach of command slide this time.

Turning his attention to the viewport, he pointed to a nearby outcropping. "Set her down there Driver. put her in standby and come back once you are done."

He headed down the ramp and awakened Bass, Adept, Insaniac and Kirk; the last of whome he had to throw something at to bring the young man out of his reverie.

"Captain wants a meeting." he told them.

h4x.m4g3 · 08-01-2004, 08:42 PM

Driver looked at the outcropping where Virus had pointed. He set the ship down gently and complied with the First Mate's order putting her into standby and heading back.
"Guess I will get to have some fun after all." He thought for a moment about the other four still sleeping and wondered how Virus was going to wake them up today as he walked to the designated meeting area.

In a small building, one on the outsirts of the awakened humans controled area of the matrix, I
sit drinking some coffee when an officer comes into the shop walks up to the counter and orders a cappacino. He slowly ambles over to me unaware of the present danger to himself and starts asking
me some questions.

"So, where you from?" asks the officer, at the end of what seemed twenty questions. "Hey, you
listening to me?" The officer rells off like he has a gun pointing at him. With a noncholant look I raise
my eyes to meet his. "Yah, you, whats your name, and what are you doing here?"

I quickly get up and just as the officer starts for his gun i grab his lapel and toss him through the
window of the shop letting off a sigh i walk out of the shop listening to the screems, they almost
cuase euphria in me. Looking down at the unconcious officer I reply, "Names unimportant, call me
Alpha, and don't ever disturb me while I drink my coffee." With a smile on my face i continue down the sidewalk, soon they would know I was here. With a crack of my neck I continue my daily rutine....

Alpha is back in town

IC: Whisper stood on a pile of smoldering rubble, surrounded by the bodies of programs and others whom had not yet been deleted, his fists outstretched. The programs lunged for him, and he turned ethereal and the program passed through him. He materialized and grabbed the first program by the neck, flipping him over and shoving a grenade into the program's mouth. He kicked the program aside and headlocked another, shooting it six times with his 50AE pistol. Having stolen it from an Agent in the old war, this gun was his most prized weapon. The second program keeled over, deleted. One by one, the others turned and ran, and he hunted them down, stabbing them with a long, serrated knife and deleting them. His cell phone rang, and he instantly picked it up. The Merovingian had called. "Whisper, there's a meeting to be held between the Oracle and the crew of the Morpheus. I need you to talk with them, in your patented way." Whisper silently nodded, and as if hearing him reply, the Merovingian answered. "Good. Call them." Whisper hung up and dialed the number that was the main radio frequency of the Morpheus. It would automatically contact the operator's console inside the ship. The ringing continued, and Whisper waited patiently.

Crypt stopped just outside Captain's door as his headset begain to buzz at him. He clicked the side of his headset and used his standard greeting, "Operator here, Go ahead."

Inside his cabin Captain heard Crypt answer the headset. Another communication so soon, he wondered and decided he wouldn't wait for Crypt to finish. He stood up, carefully, and opened his door almost stepping on Crypt as he exited his room.

Upon hearing Virus' voice, Bass slapped a hand on his forehead and got up relcutantly. "Gee, what now." He walked over to the meeting area, plopped on a seat, and laid his head on his hands, mumbling "Where the hell's Captain?" to whomever heard him.

OOC: thx for help, Sithdarth
