The airlock closed behind three men as they stepped into the depressurization chamber wearing standard space survival gear, a dark grey suit, blue helmet, orange magboots and a blue jetpack on each one's back, they each had a very large dark grey pack strapped to their belts, the packs looked full and heavy but they never felt the true weight of these packs until they stepped into the station's artificial gravity, they stood still for two minutes as the atmosphere in the chamber was reset to normal, the second airlock opened and they took their first steps into the station.
"Alright boys, we're here get yourself prepped and wait for the signal"
And not a second later they all removed their space survival gear and dug into the heavy packs for their combat gear.
A few minutes later, they were all ready, L279 Combat Rifles slung over their backs, combat helmets which had a visor and a sophisticated HUD with night vision, thermal imaging, blue space signal detectors, a small map that could be accessed and enlarged with the blink of an eye and many other tools, grey combat jumpsuits made from heat resistant fiber, black combat boots, black gloves, chest armor, a belt with many items already attached to it and a black backpack, the leader took out three headsets from his bag, he put one on and handed the other to the two men.
"Don't turn them on yet, the AI is still very much alive"
The engineering bay airlocks hissed open and a man walked into the lobby, he was wearing a jumpsuit with the letters CE written on a shoulder patch and brown shoes, he had a very thick moustache and beard, his face was hidden behind a large cap covering his hair. the man attached an ID he had on his hand to the jumpsuit, the name on it was Bryant Light, Bryant casually walked towards the CE's office, pushed a button on the door and a scanner confirmed the ID he was wearing had access to the office, the door and Bryant took a few steps inside before turning around and pressing a button, suddenly, the privacy shutters on the office's windows slowly closed.
Bryant used the office computer and typed in some commands, the screen turned red and a warning sign flashed, a timer appeared and began counting down from 5 minutes. Bryant swiftly walked out the office, picked up a tool belt from a table near the entrance door and continued on out the lobby and down the hallway thinking.
"Time to get to work"
Bryant was near the door when the timer hit zero triggering a blackout, he inspected his surroundings making sure no one was around, he seized the opportunity and used the crowbar to force the door open, he took two steps in and noted the sensors on the walls, they were off, he used the crowbar once again to close the door behind him and went on into the upload.
“Three more minutes and the power will be restored” Bryant thought, cracking his fingers and getting to work.
He used the time to disable the torrents on the four corners of the upload then cut some wiring in the AI’s core disabling it and not a moment too early as the power quickly came back on the entire station, Bryant quickly dug into his pocket and produced a small orb with three wires coming out of it and a small red button, he attached the wires to the ones he cut from the AI’s core and pressed the button, the orb started to glow, he hid the orb inside the AI’s upload, closed the cover, turned around and walked back out into the hallway with each door opening for him on his way out, out in the hallway, he looked at the camera and gave it a thumbs up.
“Mission accomplished.”
A woman in her early thirties was sitting at a computer in a dark white room with several books on her desk and a piece of paper with codes written on it next to her virtual keyboard, she was wearing a white blouse and black skirt, a pair of red high heels, glasses and a headset on her ear,
She was wearing an ID with the name Alexis Scott on it, her latest creation, “The Orb” had just been linked to the station she was monitoring and turned on, now she controls the entire station as if she’s the AI.
“Now to make sure no one spots him”
She typed in a code bringing up video feed from the station’s cameras and took a look inside the AI upload, there he was, the CE about to screw the upload’s cover back in place, Alexis saw him turn around so she quickly brought up the camera for the hallway making sure no one was outside before opening the doors for the CE to leave the upload before someone notices him, he walked out and so Alexis closed the doors behind him and noted him giving her a thumbs up.
“You’re welcome”
Alexis quickly brought up the map of the entire station, she sent a message using the AI’s secure channel to the three men still near the airlock going outside, the message read:
-Sergeant Mike, the station is mine, make your way to your objective I’ve got you covered-
Alexis, typed in a long line of code sending the entire map of the station to the Sergeant Mike and his two men’s helmet HUDs, the map offered a live feed of all the crewmembers and their locations, Alexis edited the map to also show had access to weapons showing them as red dots moving about in what appeared to be the security office’s cafeteria, civilians as blue dots, heads of staff as orange dots and the mole as a green dot.
“Alright, we have three enemy combatants, four heads of staff, twenty civilians five of whom are SSD and in the dorms and our inside man making his way to escape but I’m not sure about the tunnels, no cameras in them so our map can’t locate anyone within them” said Mike the team leader.
“What’s the plan?”
“First we take out the RD and blow up his office, he’s the only one that can cut off Alexis from the system”
“Sir the map shows the RD and two R&D staff members, the RD is in his office, one staff member in robotics and one scientist in the bomb testing area”
“Good, we go in through the maintenance tunnel, kidnap the bomb maker, stuff him in a locker and detonate one of the bombs next to one of the plasma tank used to create bombs so the bomb would cause as much chaos as possible, the RD surely won’t survive this”
“Then what sir?”
“Be patient, we don’t want to Rambo this and end up dead, after this is done we get back into the tunnels to hide and monitor the crew”
Mike eyes the two men then adds “Ready?”
The two men nodded.
“Night Vision on”
The men made their way out into the maintenance tunnel, one of the men taking point, the other walked behind them taking rear guard while Mike walked in the middle, at every turn, the team would stop, the point man, after paying attention to the tunnel for any sounds that might have originated from someone that could pose a threat to the mission, would step forward, scan the tunnel with night vision and thermal, like a machine his eyes go up, down, right and left then quickly use his hand to signal the others to move.
