The Secondary Saga - Prologue, Introductions

[Demetri Malius]

[spoiler]Once Creator left for the Ashen, I started to head to the Fountain. It seemed the most reasonable since I still had no idea where the quest was to begin. All that I was able to download into my system were small traces left by something on the dataverse. I found it interesting,as well as very suspicious, and from what I could tell it reached out pretty far across the omniverse. I kept my background functions searching as I hovered along the plain smooth ground, until my system discovered something, or actually, until something had discovered my system.

Incoming call, please confirm communication

I stopped for a moment to investigate further,as my communications mechanism began to vibrate, signaling that it required a response..

"That's odd, the only people I have come in contact with are Creator and Connor, but it seems that this caller is neither. I may as well answer..." I approved my communications the cal was confirmed. "Helloo. IRIS speaki-"

Systems rebooting. Checking systems. No threat detected. Initializing systems...Complete

My system rebooted, and I slowly started up my vision and sensing software, as well as my HUD. The last thing I remembered was being in the Nexus... the bluish glow on the glow from my eye turning a crimson red, and some image, a human girl... but, she wasn't alive. As I reactivated my antigravity system to hover again, I looked around. My sensors detected an enormous amount of plant life, as well as a abundant amount of humidity in the air. With just that information I knew that I was in the Tangled Green before my GPS even loaded, confirming my thoughts. I needed to check my data logs to see how I arrived here.

ERROR. No data

Well that's odd.

Any and all information from after I shut down to when I rebooted was deleted. I couldn't even find anything recorded on the dataverse. Odd indeed.

-BEEP- New Alert

How convenient. Hopefully this can explain something. I checked the dataverse message and found a large advertisement for finding Omni. Unlike the other ones, this felt different, a tinge of truth to it. "Hidden Ruins in Tangled Green" was written in bold words across the screen, and was accompanied by a web image. The web image was jumbled and out of focus, but with my software, I was able to get a better picture and saw a small entrance to some ruins, with a small cave nearby. I tried tracking the page source, but it was impossible to decipher the code. However, I was able to discover a gps location and one small fact from the data.. None of the respondents seemed to be summoned by Omni, meaning they were all secondaries, which proved my first hunch from the data I found while in the Nexus that this mission would be aimed to secondaries.. It was possible that this may be a trap, possibly even a mass killing of secondaries, but either way, I am going to find out what's going on. Nobody messes with my internal drive and gets away with it.

With this information I stormed off into the Greens. The GPS location was nearby, and I began to hear voices in the distance. Perhaps other secondaries that had found the ad as well. Of course there would be others that arrived earlier, my internal clock shows that I was powered down for a while.

I arrived at the scene of what I would like to call, a "buttload" of secondaries. Some were clearly confused, as others were explaining certain things to them, and other skulked along the sidelines, watching the others. Among the secondaries were military personnel, a zombie, a fairy, a captain, and many others. I joined those among the sidelines to survey the others, wondering if anyone had noticed me yet. Hopefully I could blend among them as well as that one robot with his clever disguise. Oh how I wish I brought my prize helmet.
