Title: The Indoctrination Wars (sorry changing the name on you, at least still early on)
Ch: #2, A Dreams Swan Song
Synopsis: Hidden with the trees of Bankhead nation forest lays the Droid Rebels base were we meet watch, phantom, and Dodger. Sorry for the short chapter i tried to improve my writing a bit and it came out alittle shorter than i wanted. i promise to make it up with ch. 3



The birds chirped and the sounds of the forest were easily heard in the woods of Bank head in western Alabama. Everything was calm as the running of water could be heard trickling from the streams abundant in this region. Disguised amount the rock was the entrance to the front line of the Droid rebellion. Down the stone corridor with lit dimly by the florescent lighting moved down to past the bunkers bustling with soldier returning and preparing for reconnaissance. The walls soon transitioned from stone to metal the further the corridor traveled. Until opening wide into a monitor room dark except for the glow of screen on the faces of the technicians.

A young man sat in front of a monitor as he kept a check on her life signs. He knew what was going to happen when he volunteered for the assignment. They were too let an agent get captured to do internal re-con of the apple corps and to try and determine their next move. He hated it but he couldn't turn Phantom down, this was an important moment, possibly a turning point in the battle, at least he thought that. Then he felt his heartbeat jump into his throat as soon as he heard that name come across the comm.
He ripped off the headphones and took of from his post. He ran past the recruit heading to the mess hall, they were laughing carelessly as he ran past them. His foot falls echoed in the corridor as he came to the Commander Quarter's swiping his right hand to transmit his ID. The door slid upwards into the frame as it allowed him passage as he walked in to find Commander Phantom and Dodger.

He had dealt with Phantom on a daily basis being her subordinate. She was a average sized women with tan skin, wavy raven hair, and sharp eyes that seemed to never miss anything. Dodger he only recognized by her distinct insignia recognized through out the rebellion. The omega blue droid bearing the symbol of the wolf and New Jersey, a constant reminder of what they were fighting to protect and what could be lost. She had long brown hair and dark brown eyes. She was an imposing woman of strength with an air of confidence. Though he supposed she had to be, as she controlled the Froyo infantry.

He stood straight and approached them and saluted. “Commander Phantom and Dodger of Zion” waiting to be addressed.

“Speak freely, Watcher” Phantom nonchalantly waved her hand as she paused the conversation with her fellow officer.

“Yes Commander, I have Intel regarding the sleeper mission on Apple Corps. Base in Mill Springs according to audio transmitted back by Operative dream it has been confirmed that Commander A9 of the corps. is present at the base and has taken over interrogation.”

The color seemed to run out of Phantom’s face as the sharp look in her eyes flickered. “You relieved Watcher, take the rest of the day off and make sure someone competent takes your post” as she motioned for him to leave and stood.

He wondered what was going to happen as he nodded and gave a salute and took his leave letting the door slide close behind him.

Phantom paced slightly around the room slowly trying to gather her thoughts before she broke the silence. “What is ‘Adam’ doing there? Do you thing Master OS has gotten wind of our plans?”

“No, I not impossible but I doubt it. I would assume that Master OS is going to make an offensive move soon and there is no one better to lead than A9 out of the Siblings.” Dodger said as she brought up her HUD and connected to the Supreme Android.

“What are you sending?”

“A request to SA for Anger to come and prepare for a battle. A9 never leaves Master OS side unless for a full assault and that means the other siblings aren’t far behind. We are going to have to prepare for a real battle this could be a turning point. You were telling me about the sleeper mission though, what was Dream’s true mission?”

“Intel Gain and Conversion if Possible”

“Interesting…” Dodger stood and moved towards the door before stopping for a moment. “You know when push comes to shove odds are we’ll have to brick him before he does it to us.” Stepping out of the door

“…I know” Phantom whispered to her self as she brought the HUD up and viewed her library and took deep breath as the photo of herself in a lifetime long lost. She steadied her resolve and left the room and headed towards the monitor room. The corridors were now empty, dodger worked fast seeing as she must have ordered all the troops to gather to prepare.

The monitor room was now void except for Watcher sitting at his terminal furiously moving through the data with a look of urgency on his face as Phantom hastened her walk over towards him.

“I though I told you to take the rest of the day off?”
“You told me to find someone competent to replace me, I didn’t find anyone. But we have larger issues at hand” he said as he pointed towards the monitor which was now displaying corrupted data and the sound coming through were the screams of Dream but the feed was cracking and losing quality.

“What Happening?” Phantom asked.

“The data is being corrupted and converted at the same time. I’ve never seen anything like it, it’s like they are breaking down her personal OS and rewriting it but that isn’t possible…is it?”

“…shit” was the only word Phantom could say as the monitor went blank only showing the text

‘Connection to Operative Lost’
