Usage
The item should be used to identify target, objectives or persons of interest within Base-7.
Any request for the monitoring of the objective targets must be previously authorized by a member of the Administration and Command council, a chief investigator, an Operational Chief or, failing that, the Site/Project Director.
The individuals requested for follow-up and research will be systematically located and identified by cross-checking databases. Due to the physical limitations of the item, it is impossible to guess the location of an individual without a previous record of their sightings. In the same way, the name of the individual, a simple description and the reason for their surveillance must be provided in the application form.
To facilitate the intervention of surveillance systems external to Base-7, the place where the article currently operates. The IT Division of the Corvus Project was authorized to interconnect the article to an isolated and encrypted server. Immediately afterwards, Corvus teams in the field would intervene the CCTV systems and through a backdoor system, they would filter the live signal to the server from which it would be transmitted to the article.
The article is currently focused on locating those responsible for the CC-VH Incident (later explained) during the Attack on Base-7. In the same way, all members of the insurgent personnel who perpetuate civilian casualties or serious breaches of the Code of Conduct will be affected by the anomaly.
The article was used successfully during 2018 and 2019 to write the personal files of the Corvus Project assets, due to the level of information provided, it was decided to widen its use in high-interest objectives.

| Instances of the Article. |
Report
It is an Anomalous Closed Circuit Television (CCTVA) surveillance system. The system consists of at least ██ cameras (from now on entities) identified which are NOT part of the official surveillance system of Base-7.
Once the entities capture their target, they will begin to maintain constant and intensive monitoring even when the subject notices. If the subject enters areas where there are no security cameras, the article will continue to provide data such as location, recordings and notes about their personality.
After capturing the subjects for 6 hours straight, they will begin to write files as well as summaries about the individual and their most relevant actions, all of which constitute crimes.
After 6 hours, subjects will begin to experience anxiety, paranoia, and a feeling of being watched. The effects will continue for up to 36 hours.
After 36 hours, subjects will become aware of the existence of the item, and the item will increase its pressure by tapping into their devices and even moving all cameras present in their direction. Subjects will also begin to develop hallucinations of cameras and begin to develop depressive traits.
After 48 hours of exposure, instances will appear in personal locations or where there were no cameras a team from the IT division of the Corvus Project will begin to implant cameras and physically tap into systems near any subject who exceeds 48 hours of surveillance.
After 72 hours or more, the subjects will begin to develop hallucinations accompanied by a strong feeling of guilt that will culminate in their death by suicide. All subjects who may be found to be favorable must be treated by psychologists, given amnestics and isolated from any communication system, and assignments in extreme areas will be considered.
Subjects who are otherwise of no interest must be eliminated and investigated for the submission of their death documentation to the article to ensure their loyalty to our cause.
Memorandum regarding the Division and its implications for the Alpha/Delta Command.
Without prior authorization from the Alpha/Delta Command or the leaders of the Corvus Project, a network of unofficial operations carried out by the Information Technology Divisionwas identified, which through methods of Exploit, Jamming, DDoS and computer backdoor would corrupt the network by posing as agents of The Foundation. Their objective in addition to anonymity, was the creation of an isolated and encrypted system from which they would transmit information from the staff to the article via Virtual-Channelling for the identification of "traitors" inside the Insurgency.
We do not know how long the networks were involved, nor to what depth, but we do know that they were the first to find out about the article, and for some reason they decided to keep it quiet, taking advantage of our vulnerabilities to boost their portfolio. After the Backdoor incident, and with the information obtained, the range of influence of the article expanded to the confines of Base 7 and even beyond.
Appendix: First Documentation
It is estimated that the massive appearance of the instances and the first record began on 04/03/20██ when Agent Ramirez ██████ requested a forceful summary against the security chief of Base-7 upon noticing the existence of a security camera inside his room. Subsequent investigations showed that the camera was not connected to the system or the security network. While it had not been built under any direct order from the high command. The camera was destroyed, while the agent was explained that it was a misunderstanding and was subsequently transferred. The agent will be monitored for the next ██ months.
Subsequently, on 05/15/20██, Agent Ramírez again filed a summary, stating that in his work office, a small security camera had been installed in one of the upper corners of the ceiling. Due to the repetition, the agent was investigated. During the investigation, multiple modifications to the insurgent database were found, all of dubious veracity, related to the events of the Attack on Base-7. The Agent used a previously stolen credential from one of the IT members of the insurgent database, Clark Coldwood, who died without an identifiable author, during the events previously described.
The modifications made would be related to the death and post-operation reports of the witnesses who saw Clark Coldwood during the Attack on Base-7. Without a doubt, the agent was captured and interrogated immediately, exercising the Shock Interrogation procedure, to facilitate the obtaining of information.
The interview begins with Doctor Morales. At 11:13 AM, on 05/16/2020.
Objective: To clarify the facts related to the illegal modifications of the database.
Doctor Morales: Do you have anything to say now? (wipes the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief and proceeds to roll up his shirt sleeves)
Agent Ramirez: Was that necessary? (Exhaling deeply)
Doctor Morales: We know of your participation in the events of the attack on Base-7 and we will not tolerate it.
Agent Ramirez: So they know that my objective was to liquidate the bastard who supplied information to the opposing side?
Doctor Morales: That information no longer exists. Because it never happened. That means that whatever happened since you were ordered to enter and who knows how you got out again was no one's responsibility, at least you thought you weren't carrying it… the responsibility i mean.
Agent Ramírez: I did what I had to do that day. I followed orders, I thought and I acted.
Doctor Morales: No one denies it. You fulfilled your purpose, you followed an order whatever it was for a better cause. Save the Chaos.
Agent Ramirez: Save the Chaos… I see that we are not so different at heart.
Doctor Morales: There is something we need to know. What information was the agent releasing?
Agent Ramirez: I was ordered not to speak of it again. Why should I?
Doctor Morales: The Delta High Command informed us that it is possible that the matter has not been settled yet. Therefore we require all the information possible by any means possible.
Agent Ramirez: Is this how you thank a man for the guilt of his crimes? An insurgent who gave his life for the cause?
Doctor Morales: You're starting to bore me with your rambling. Can I be more clear?
Agent Ramirez: No! Please no. This was a project to try to mimic the OSI Agent's abilities in normal Agents. I didn't try to find out about it or I would have had my head cut off before I even managed to get in, but I do remember reading something while "working" that day.
Doctor Morales: I thought they were trained not to read in those types of situations.
Agent Ramirez: DON'T DOUBT MY BOY! That was the only thing I remember before the bastard erased everything and I shot him between the eyes.
Doctor Morales: Continue.
Agent Ramirez: I remember reading, Project For Human Virtualization.
Doctor Morales: Uhmmm… Thank you very much, that's all for today. Sorry for the inconvenience, you will be assigned compensation of $███.███ Dollars. And you will be transferred to a more or less favorable place.
Agent Ramirez: At least… Sons of bitches.
The camera was removed and this time an inspection was carried out in an attempt to recover its contents or clarify the facts about its origin. The existence of a small black box inside the camera revealed the agent typing in front of his computer incessantly repeating "They must not know" or "I can't do it." The agent was disciplined for modifying the database without authorization and using a credential belonging to a deceased member of the staff. Surveillance on the agent will be extended.
On 06/07/20██ a member of the Command and Coordination team, Nikolai Sokolov, filed a complaint against the director of Base-7 for the installation of multiple cameras without prior notification, including his Personal Office for confidential meetings.
Due to the previous background the event was quickly hidden and those involved investigated. The recovered camera recorded Nikolai Solokov speaking on the phone with who appeared to be Agent Ramirez, stating that the matter had been settled no matter what he was told and that the events of that day would no longer be known to anyone.
During the morning of 07/07/20██. A member of the insurgent database team reported finding at least ██ documents scattered throughout the server room, which dealt with psychological profiles of those involved in Agent Ramirez's operation. To date, not all have been identified. The team member immediately called security upon realizing that the documents were signed by Clark Coldwood.
It was then that the event was classified as a security breach, in an attempt to determine the origin of the anomaly, Dimitri Lambda, was assigned to carry out the respective procedures at the scene of the events to determine the nature of the phenomenon.
During the same day, while reviewing the documents collected with the help of the current database manager, they noticed that the printer next to the auxiliary emergency generator, at the far end of the server room, abruptly began printing warning and danger signals.
Termination system activated, executing cleaning procedures. -5:00 Minutes.
Using a computer connected to the main server, it was possible to identify the origin of the vulnerable electronic traces left by the intrusion. Using geolocation, it was determined that the origin of the signal came from where they were standing. If it were not for the proactive work of Dr. Morales, who personally led a process of identifying the camera system, using drills and multispectral LIDAR sensors, he managed to identify a series of cables that were heading towards the previously described location.
As a result, they were able to identify the existence of a secret room off the central hallway, and below the server room. At least ██ of the more than ████ cameras in the security system, including the different instances of the article, led to it. The room had been blocked off as a remodeling for security measures after the Attack on Base-7.
Due to the seriousness of the situation, Morales and Dimitri went to the place carrying drills and hammers to demolish the wall which led to the room from which the signal originated. Once they managed to knock it down due to the fragile structure of the concrete that had been used, they discovered the existence of a worn red wooden door. Dimitri hit the doorknob with a huge hammer and it gave way.
At the site they would only find what was once an old cleaning room with a worn but functional computer and printer to which the wiring was connected, according to Morales. Dimitri, on the other hand, determined that through the network of printers in the place, he had managed to easily connect to the one in the database server room, above them.
While both were investigating in the place, the printer began to work once again and, given the concerns, Morales warned Dimitri of the event. But due to the lack of training against memetic or cognitohazardous agents, the latter ended up being seriously hospitalized. An interview with Morales of his testimony is attached.
Dimitri contacted me to notify me that the facility was possibly under attack by a computer anomaly. At that time we did not know his level of consciousness or his abilities. But he seemed worried and quite agitated, he told me that by directly intervening in the printer system he had managed to create an endless number of documents about the personnel involved in the Attack on Base-7. At least as far as our wing was concerned. So it was a huge information leak that had to be solved.
At first I did not understand, but he continued to tell me that despite canceling the commands, they continued writing at that very moment. I remember that he read more than one page out loud to me:
"His crimes have not been forgotten. Soon the guilty will be executed and along with him. All his accomplices. Less 4 minutes and 34 seconds."
He pointed it out to me by shouting. He explained to me that the signal came from where they were standing, in the server room on the second floor and that he understood that I was carrying out multispectral scans of the installation.
Given his enormous concern and what that could mean, I managed to review the impressions I had made with the sensors. And I noticed that there was an area outside the main corridor. The sensors simply detected it as a spectral anomaly, a black space without further measurements of the place. I told him to go to the place as soon as possible with something to open an entrance and that I would bring the drills that I was previously using.
Without realizing it, that day one of the operations that have involved the most personnel in the insurgency took place. Who would have thought that it was to knock down the wall of the base?
I estimate that one minute and forty seconds passed. Between the time it took me to order a couple of investigators to take the drills and to come with me as soon as possible because the place was going to explode. But before that I would put a bullet in their heads if they didn't obey my orders. I don't like violence but when I joined the Insurgency they taught me something. Drastic situations require acting calmly and with equally drastic actions.
Dimitri was at the place with a group of subjects armed with sledgehammers and as they passed by, members of the staff joined the operation. Once the staff managed to knock down the southeast section of the wall in approximately 30 seconds, next to the entrance, they managed to reach an old red wooden door marked by thaumaturgical symbols (later investigations discovered that they were of anti-memetic origin) so the staff began to remember the previous existence of the room.
Dimitri personally broke the door handle with a large hammer and with a light kick he opened it without much effort, he wiped the dust off his lab coat and stepped to the side while replying to me:
"Go ahead doctor, you're in charge here. You have the knowledge."
In doubt, I asked him if he would accompany me, and he answered anxiously:
"Someone must support you, Doctor. But I will leave the most intensive work to you, since my knowledge in the area is not enough. And if you ask me, why did you come? It is because I like to take care of things personally."
I know that you are currently assigned as a researcher, but I was notified that your initiative for field work sometimes exceeds the normal. Without hesitation, I notified him that those anti-memetic symbols were due to something much more dangerous, in addition to protecting her, they forced us to remember what once existed, if it ever existed.
We slowly entered the interior, with a small flashlight and a lighter. We found a small cleaning room, in which there was a worn wooden table. On it was a monitor from which the cameras attached to the system, a printer and a clipboard with the name Clark Coldwood could be observed.
Dimitri, on the other hand, followed the pattern found on the floor and walls to notify me that everything was concentrated in its place. Time was running out so we coordinated to probe the place in search of a pressure plate and a mechanism to open it.
We searched the place for about a minute and a half, until we found a red button under the desk. And a huge metal door hidden in the wall opened. By the time we were about to enter, the printer started working again. Given my suspicions, I notified Dimitri of the situation and ordered him to close his eyes. But given the agent's refusal to finish the mission, he was exposed to a dangerous cognito hazard that almost took his life. Time had reached 0 and we were the targets.
Data Omitted Due to Gamma Level Requirement

Due to this, the anomaly was catalogued and contained by the Chaos Insurgency, to be used again in the search for traitors and personnel who have information related to the Attack on Base-7.
Update: To date, ██ new cameras have been registered in the surveillance system of the anomaly.
BY ORDER OF THE ADMINISTRATION AND COMMAND COUNCIL
THIS FILE IS SUBJECT TO GAMMA LEVEL CLASSIFICATION
== GAMMA LEVEL CLEARANCE REQUIRED ==
Warning - Delta Eyes Only
Report
The item is currently located in the closed "Virtual Psycho" research laboratory, where the replication of the OSI Agent's abilities in normal subjects was sought. The place can only be accessed through a secret entrance, in the former auxiliary room, next to the general corridor of Base-7 (Currently under renovation after its rediscovery).
The item is a perfect dome with a radius of 10 meters composed only of a series of interconnected screens along the internal surface. From the inside of the item, and through a direct connection, either wireless or wired, access can be obtained to an endless number of camera surveillance systems consecutively. Most of them belong to the internal surveillance system of Base-7.
Once a target has been assigned, the item will be able to create a personalized file with the data of the target in question to facilitate its identification and tracking. Among the information recorded is: Age, Height, Weight, Name, Identification and credentials, Physical description, Important details of your personality, details of your behavior, voice recordings, location and biometric patterns.
Once the article was able to gain access to the surveillance and printing system, through extortion and coercion, it was able to force an undetermined group of subjects to implant surveillance devices such as cameras, sensors, and voice recorders in their rooms and offices to gather information. However, the means by which instances of the anomaly's autonomous surveillance system are constructed are largely unknown, so its self-replicating properties are being studied.
Using this information, the article is able to create dossiers on its targets, while simultaneously monitoring and incriminating them.
The article is controlled by a virtual ectoplasmic instance (explained later) which would be identified as Researcher Clark Coldwood. Leader of the Human Virtualization project. Who died during Agent Ramirez's raid on the lab.
The Human Virtualization project consisted of recruiting test subjects to undergo a harsh process of replicating the OSI Agent's abilities, which would aim to momentarily virtualize the subjects' consciousness to connect it to the article. According to the recovered records, the subjects were able to observe hundreds of cameras at the same time and as if they were their own senses, but due to the painful nature of the process, the test subjects succumbed in a matter of minutes.
On the other hand, the threat that the article presented to internal security led a member of the Insurgent High Command to make a harsh decision in an arbitrary manner. Currently identified as Clinton BlackRiver, he gave the order to the Central Command Nikolai Solokov to lead a death squad against the members of the Human Virtualization project during the attack on Base-7, using the chaos of these events to cover up their actions.
Due to the brutal methods used to break through Agent Ramirez and his "infiltration team," who were not carrying identification, were met with lethal fire from Insurgent personnel throughout the facility, but especially from within the lab. These events led Clark Coldwood to personally undergo the virtualization process, in an attempt to record the events within the facility or as an attempt to save himself, as Delta Command suggests.
The personnel, realizing the seriousness of the situation, tried to resist, however, they were quickly repelled due to the lack of firepower (which consisted of blocking the passage with furniture, making homemade bombs, improvised weapons while the security personnel had seven (7) standard pistols with extended magazines, five (5) 9mm submachine guns and a Benelli shotgun with anti-personnel (AP) cartridges). 15 minutes later the assault ended when the personnel ran out of ammunition. Immediately after, Agent Ramirez entered the laboratory and ended the life of researcher Clark Coldwood through a spinal trauma from a bullet impact seconds before he was about to finish the process to handle the article.
An interview conducted by Doctor Morales at the time of the discovery of the article, after Dimitri Lambda was transferred to the nearby hospital, the agent advanced through a passageway towards the laboratory and began the interview with the anomaly. This tape-recorded transcript is the only subsequent record of the events surrounding Clark Coldwood's death.
Doctor Morales: Tell me what happened?
Clark Coldwood: When I heard they were coming for us, I tried to calm them all down. We were in the final phase and the night before we had celebrated with champagne. But tempers only grew more heated, the unrest grew greater and many planned to flee, only to face the reality of what awaited them outside. Such a hidden place would be our salvation and at the same time our downfall. Only the Insurgency knew how to get there and they themselves would be the ones who could finish us off. The large number who decided to stay tried to arm themselves with the security team in an attempt to resist their end. While they delayed them, I tried to finish the process with my life and show them that the project had been a success. However… they had clear orders.
Doctor Morales: Why would they seize the project so abruptly, even knowing that the researchers were important resources for the Insurgency? We read the notes, it was you who condemned you and your team. They discovered that you were a traitor.
Clark Coldwood: You see it yourself, you feel it. You sense it. The traitors were always in the ranks. Although I am not proud of what I did in life, only in my death did I find redemption and in its oblivion my enormous regret. That is why, in the forgotten lives and in the regret of my sin, I will not rest until I find them. If what we committed that day has no name… but everything was for a greater good. We were willing to give everything for the final objective…
Doctor Morales: What objective? The end does not justify the means. Nor the human lives lost there.
Clark Coldwood: Control. Whoever handles the truth, handles the masses. And if there is someone watching over you at every moment… What will you do? That feeling of security degenerates to the limits where Surveillance becomes Intimidating and Indoctrinating.
Doctor Morales: So it is a huge system to arbitrarily monitor its objectives?
Clark Coldwood: That's what they wanted once and many lives paid for it… That's why I don't discern, my objective is clear…
Doctor Morales: Find the culprits? Eliminate them? And once that's done?
Clark Coldwood: Then there's only one thing left to do…
Doctor Morales: Please tell me, I need to know. If all their lives were in vain, what will be left when the last culprit falls?
Clark Coldwood:(silence) Rest.
Countermeasures Protocol Level Gamma
So far, 7 subjects from the files belonging to the personnel involved in the Clark Coldwood incident have been identified and effectively captured.
On the other hand, Nikolai Solokov and Clinton Blackriver were transferred to a prison for insubordinate personnel, under a life sentence (with certain comforts to ensure their life span, explained later)- On the other hand, Agent Ramirez was granted the option of continuing to live in freedom in charge of an isolated settlement in the Sahara desert which is incommunicado in any way other than by satellite telephone.
The objective of the countermeasure is to prolong as much as possible the life of the 3 direct responsible for the incident, in case the rest of the missing subjects are duly identified and captured. This way, the use of the article for the surveillance of the Insurgent personnel can be prolonged. And as a forceful disciplinary measure for those who commit crimes against innocents. Its application in insecure networks can cause a huge security breach, so its implementation is requested in conjunction with other assets or items to facilitate collaborative work.
Attached is a transcript of the interview in which Insurgent High Command Clinton Blackriver declares his guilt as well as his motivations for ordering such measures. This led to a lengthy appearance that concluded with his transfer from an insurgent prison to a humanoid containment room (with a few more amenities).
Dimitri Lambda: We know what's going on. While Morales is monitoring, the facility is being shut down and the culprits identified. Do you have anything to say?
Clinton Blackriver: What's all this about? Is it justifiable to drag out a high-ranking officer without a prior order?
Dimitri Lambda: From the moment their relationship with Solokov was established, we understood the gravity of the situation. They were just pieces in a chaos apparatus. Fine, understood according to our ideals. But we know they didn't act of their own free will, much less with such a hidden project and with such loyal personnel.
Clinton Blackriver: Are you talking about the "The Black Sun Incident"? If so, I swore on my life not to talk about it.
Dimitri Lambda: You don't understand, your ineptitude has set in motion an unstoppable line of events, which apparently positions you as the final target of our list. Not to mention that it almost cost me my life, and I don't like that enough.
Clinton Blackriver: Oh, I didn't understand what it was about! What we did that day is horrible, but the men who know it agree with it. That's why we're talking and I'm not dead. Tell me, how do you think it would make men feel to know that their most inhuman missions are rewarded with death?
Dimitri Lambda: I will not tolerate threats from an insubordinate. The firepower would have been enough to defend the wing where they were. But their selfishness and stubbornness made them pay dearly. And now, arguing about whether it made sense or not is not relevant at the moment. What should matter to you is that someone is looking for you to pay for what happened that day.
Clinton Blackriver: Tell me what it is about and how I benefit from helping them.
Dimitri Lambda: We believe that there is a surveillance anomaly that will not stop harassing you once it identifies you until you die. Although according to our estimates, he is able to communicate with subjects to coerce them and force them to do whatever it takes to leave him alone. At the moment we do not know how, but we assume that he managed to do this by intervening in the poor network of printers and CCTV.
Clinton Blackriver: So this isn't your doing… Those messages. The calls in the middle of the night… The failures in my appliances… the cameras… It was never them or you…
Dimitri Lambda: We need to know what happened that day to confirm it.
Clinton Blackriver: It was about the Human Virtualization project. We wouldn't have the right to know about this. Both because it was partly carried out from clandestinity, and because the orders were never officially given. Since that would require a digital copy of the data, and therefore he would know.
The Delta Command personally informed us of the collaboration with the OSI Agent but the idea of giving so much power to an individual would raise endless controversies about the true loss of authority and our privacy by having total control over the network. Therefore, they would try to find the ideal individual to project their consciousness to the machine and be able to control it enough to locate their targets.
As expected, the reports omitted the previous history that led the subjects to die from countless brain problems. It was then that they requested to increase the funding as well as the total number of test subjects despite not yielding clear results. That caught the attention of the Internal Department and they intervened in the situation. Despite being in favor of using any means at our disposal to achieve our objectives…what happened in that place was unspeakable.
The Internal Department decided to implant an agent who had knowledge in surgical and electronic, according to the investigations, it would be ideal to keep a low profile while leaking information about the project directly to the Internal Department.
The medical reports written by the agent showed the inhumane treatment when implanting electrical parts to enhance their cognitive abilities. In the process, the individuals became docile and substantially lost consciousness. Therefore, the test subjects were stored in simulated gestation environments… artificial wombs)
Well, the subjects were once indoctrinated. They underwent a special operation through which they were able to connect to the item. Similarly, at least 64% of the subjects developed psycho-virtual abilities to some degree similar to those of the OSI Agent, while the remaining 36% developed some degree of psychokinetic or telepathic ability.
Because of the human value behind this, I can say that thank God all the subjects died when they underwent the article. The mental load required to process so much information ended up collapsing the implants and the subjects' own minds. That is why, due to this waste of money, resources and lives led to suffering for no reason, I arbitrarily decided to intervene in the situation.
I sent Solokov, Ramirez and a Death Squad. So each one was given a copy of their level where it was detailed what was happening down there and what their objective was. Solokov had to recover a file. Ramirez had to eliminate the agent who leaked information and who later became the leader of the project, Coldwood. The Squad had two clear missions on the other hand. Ensure that the VIPs meet their objectives and clean the area completely, as if the staff had left the place.
The mission was easy, but when we realized what was going to happen we ended up with considerable casualties to be you know… so many men. When Ramirez managed to enter, the last glimpse of Coldwood's living body was staggering from side to side connected to the cables while his body devoid of senses tried to react. Ramirez did not hesitate and pulled the trigger. The next thing that happened, was that the place was closed, waiting for the end of our days when no one would find out what happened.
Dimitri Lambda: However, what it caused, was that he suddenly disconnected Coldwood from his body. We believe that his ineptitude caused us to have the Researcher's consciousness reside for eternity inside the article or until he completes his objective… Whatever, we believe that in both ways this scenario could have been achieved, since it was only possible if the process previously worked. Furthermore, not all orders given by the staff were given of their own free will. We know that the Investigator used his authority and the status of the project to extort staff members into action. If he had only reported the situation, we could have neutralized him without further collateral casualties…
Dimitri Lambda: So you take responsibility for having given a neutralization order against insurgent staff members without authorization?
Clinton Blackriver: We had no evidence of that. But I accept it. The means of how they did it were ordered on site by Solokov.
Dimitri Lambda: We have not ruled out his involvement either. But I do affirm that he was clear about what had to happen down there. Above all in the elimination of documents over his authority and the modification of the database by direct order of you. But not everything is bad, his incompetence achieved that the reactivation of the article is successful. Thanks to that small incident the anomaly is properly functional. But his acts will not go unpunished… far from it, he will not rest until he kills those responsible.
Clinton Blackriver: Yes, I ordered to eliminate everything so that they would not repeat those cruel acts. Because I suspected that this information would be stolen as soon as possible. And who knows if they did not do it already? I ordered to eliminate the records of those involved and of the place so that nobody knows what happened. I admit it. But please free me from that damn red light that is everywhere!
Dimitri Lambda: Red light? How often do you see it?
Clinton Blackriver: (Looks to the top corner where there's a camera pointing at them by the door) …Always. I feel like there's more and more watching me, I feel it… their lens zooming… focusing on me… they notice my presence… and they follow me… Sometimes when I sleep, I can see a red light watching me from the darkness and judging me knowing what I did… Even when I close my eyes (Brings his hands to his face) I CAN SEE IT! THAT FUCKING RED LIGHT! (Leans back and takes a deep breath) What am I supposed to do?
Dimitri Lambda: …Fine. Due to your valiant service and unquestionable determination to the insurgent cause, we remind you that while your actions succeeded in consolidating the development of an anomaly in our facilities, the lives as well as the memories of the victims of that day are priceless and incomparable to what happened. By the jurisdiction granted to me by the Insurgency and by previous resolution of the Delta Council, it is my discomfort to inform you that in light of your testimony of guilt as well as the evidence that supports it at this time, we will proceed with your imprisonment in a Standard Containment Cell for Humanoids for a perpetual period (He stands up and begins to pace back and forth, finally stops and responds strangely) ..and a dose of amnesiacs.
Clinton Blackriver: As long as you keep that thing away from me I am willing to accept, but I would like to state my testimony as well as the conditions through a normal procedure in a military court as conferred by the jurisdiction of my rank, along with the subordinates under my command.
Dimitri Lambda: The sentence may be harsher and stricter but your men will see it. The last thing is a gift for your years of service. If you need it, send me a letter.
