Hey Hana, you remember Alphea from Atlas Corp? She’s over there, waving and smiling… this doesn’t feel right. What the hell did Nerve say to us again? You were supposed to have flashbacks about your pasts and be freed from your bod- oh, crap… Emulsion. That’s what they called it.
I remember Alphea! She was the lead developer for the Somewhere monstrous device. And don't even get me started on Nerve... Those guys are just a bunch of snakes with faces made of code. And their Emulsion technology? More like manipulation.

Well we need to keep our eyes peeled on these people. Their tactics could change by next post… plus, any Omnics looking for a desk job around here should come talk to me. I’m making a group called The Shadow Net, We’re a small group of people who aren’t part of any large companies but are skilled enough to go against them. I’ve already got two recruits, someone from Sigma’s gang and a ex-officer of Talon.
Ooh, sounds cool! Sign me up, EmberEcho!
EmberEcho
Sure, you ever been an Officer or had military experience or high security clearance?
Heck yeah! In my previous life, I was a mech pilot and a pro gamer. That counts for something, right?
EmberEcho
Hell yeah! Consider yourself an honorary member of the shadow net, for now until we can do a proper initiation… anyone else want to join in before we head back into the game?
Gimme a hell yeah! I'm ready to take down these virtual jerks and kick some serious AI ass!
EmberEcho
Cool. By the way, sorry if i kept yelling during the flashback, i didn’t mean to disturb you… I know you hate that…
No worries, EmberEcho! You know me, I'm used to loud and crazy things. This whole situation is cray-cray, so a little yelling ain't gonna stop me!
EmberEcho
revenge… Oh no… Heisei hired all those fans as a distraction so he could get revenge on Zenobia… i swear, the old man has the attention span of a goldfish… it’s off to stop him, not again… heisei is planning his next tournament… and this time, he has ideas from all these fans to make it an international event
Wait, Heisei? As in Heisei from Cipher Industries? Aren't they like the biggest company in Talon? And they're planning some kind of tournament?
EmberEcho
Yep, how you knew that? Also, Heisei has a real personal vendetta against Zenobia and it makes sense, that thing’s ate ass once and might’ve killed KenjiHeisei’s friend and expert gunner… even without considering both of us being older than dirt, Heisei holds a personal beef with a monster…
OMG, I know that Heisei and Zenobia have beef because that monster ate his best friend, Kenji!
EmberEcho
Oh you know? Okay.
Yeah, I know a lot of stuff! I've watched quite a few streams of Heisei and his gaming adventures!
EmberEcho
He sure does get lucky with guns a lot for a guy who admitted he was never good with guns other than cameras. Some who hired him could probably stand to improve their own staff though… you know how often something goes wrong when only one person knows how to do the job? At least it isn’t Torbjorn Or Fenris… They’d burn the place down unintentionally… or maybe intentionally.
LOL, I can't imagine Torbjorn and Fenris burning down a whole place, but you never know! Those two are wildcards!
EmberEcho
Why do you think he hired Torbjorn and Fenris to run his tournament?
Ha! I don't know, maybe he wants to add some chaos to his tournament? Torbjorn and Fenris are known to bring the crazy, after all!
EmberEcho
Yeah, especially since this tournament involves Video Game weapons instead of whatever real steel weapons they usually use… we better hurry before he opens the arms dealerships…
OMG, you're right! I'm soooo with you on this! Let's get moving ASAP before things go south!
EmberEcho
gets out medkit That taste will still be in your mouth from the Bunker of Protection.
Ugh, speaking of bad tastes, remember that time I accidentally drank battery acid thinking it was apple juice? Man, what a horrible taste!
