Start
Theresa
Wasn't the guy killed by Schicksal in Arc City?
Mei
Could it be his double that died?
Gray Serpent
"Death is life lived. Life is a death that comes."
Gray Serpent
Don't be surprised. The Serpent doesn't submit to death.
Gray Serpent
An annoying gnat disrupted our deal, but contracts are to be honored, even after death.
Theresa
Contracts? You didn't give us any intel and Schicksal is right after us.
Gray Serpent
Apologies. Schicksal complicated our deal, but I've already delivered the intel as promised.
Theresa
But the Ningyo has been formatted.
Gray Serpent
Correction: YOU formatted her. You should fix that problem yourselves.
Gray Serpent
Now I've kept my end of the bargain, and I will help myself to what I was promised...
Einstein
Wait. The Ningyo's quantum drive has activated once more. Impossible, I thought I...
Einstein
Alert. The Gray Serpent is using her to hack the battleship! He'll take control of the Hyperion soon.
Theresa
Disconnect the Ningyo from the system!
Einstein
We're too late. He has installed his malware.
System
Weapon systems down.
System
Sensor systems down.
System
Commence emergency landing. The Hyperion has been forced to land.
Tesla
Curses. He locked down every module!
Comms
Principal, our sentries have spotted unidentified mechs trying to board the ship.
Einstein
What does the Gray Serpent want?
Theresa
I don't care what he wants. He's definitely not getting it.
Theresa
Professor, I'm counting on you and Bronya to reclaim the Hyperion!
Einstein
Alright.
Bronya
Affirmative.
Theresa
I'll fend off the enemies onboard. Let's see what Gray Serpent is up to.
< The screen goes black, then switches to the Hyperion, where the Captain will have control of Mei's [Striker Fulminata] battlesuit. >
< Defeat the enemies. >
< Enemies defeated. >
While Theresa fought the invaders, Dr. Einstein initiated another task.
Einstein
Now that Gray Serpent has the mainframe, let's try other ways to bypass it and regain control.
Einstein
Eins, connect to the Hyperion.
Einstein's companion bot spun into action and approached the control platform.
It connected to several terminal ports of the Hyperion to initiate a mainframe bypass protocol.
Einstein
This is no ordinary hacker we're dealing with. I need your help to connect to the virtual dataspace of the ship, Bronya.
Bronya
Bronya understands.

System
External neural links established. Syncing...
Bronya took a deep dive into the sea of data where Hyperion and Eins databases converged.
Binary data washed over her cerebral cortex like an unending wave.
Data torrents rushed into Bronya's awareness and became part of her existence.
Gray Serpent
............
Gray Serpent
This is a game played by grown-ups, Bronya Zaychik. Do not interfere.
Bronya
You know Bronya's full name?
Gray Serpent
The Serpent has its eyes on you. I know everything about you, Bronya.
Bronya
It is not April Fool's. Subject Serpent's joke is not funny. Quit Hyperion's system immediately.
Gray Serpent
You know nothing, Bronya Zaychik. Our power is beyond your wildest imagination.
Gray Serpent
The Serpent gave us the truth, far before humanity came to realize the nature of life.
Gray Serpent
To us, the world is nothing but a river of data that ebbs and flows...
Gray Serpent
And the same is true for memories.
Gray Serpent
I sense your disbelief. I shall prove it to you.
