Welcome to Gaia! ::

She looked back up at him as he spoke about finishing the rebellion in a few days. She took a half step back from him, but managed to keep her tone steady. “It is you who doesn't know. What is your plan? Infect Sybil with a virus? Go in guns blazing while Sybil is down and take out the government? If that is your plan it won't work and Sybil will kill everyone. I may not know where they took your father, but I know a lot about Sybil.” More than she wanted to at this point. She spoke more like Sybil was a person rather than a computer program.

“It doesn't matter if you have ran a million tests.” She answered angrily. “Sybil isn't just a computer...It's something else.” She sighed. “Look, I know how this is going to sound, but I am not crazy and you need to trust me. Sybil is the President. That thing isn't a human, it's an empty shell that looks like a human. A body that Sybil controls and no one can tell because it is so much more advanced than any piece of technology anyone has seen. It can behave like a human, adjust, evolve, learn and even predict what we are going to do. Who knows when we last had a human President? I don't know exactly what Sybil is, who built it or why, but I do know what I saw in the basement of that building.”

She closed her eyes and took a deep breath as he brought up the sewers. “I know how that looked. They did...things to me.” Things they were probably doing doing to his father right now. “But this was before they caught me. Before the...well before.” She couldn't quite bring herself to say hallucination. To admit they might have been a lot closer to breaking her than she had thought. Obviously he wasn't going to believe her and whatever evidence she had gotten at the time had been taken when they had taken her. She had to at least try though. “At least go look before you send everyone to get killed. There must be other spies who work there. Besides, if they have any idea how important your father is and what he knows, he is likely somewhere within that building.” It was after all the most secure building the government had and after catching her they were probably on higher alert than ever before.

Well at least he was willing to discuss it instead of throwing her out of the room, but the news of them having no other spies on the inside definitely threw a wrench into her plan.”If you have no one left on the inside you can't.” She said with a defeated tone. It would be a suicide mission at best for the spy who went, but at least they would probably make it down to the basement. They could take pictures and send them to the rebellion before they were taken. To try and infiltrate from the outside, they would be lucky to make it passed the front door under Sybil's all seeing eyes. “Look. If you go forward with this it is going to end badly, but....” She reached towards the hologram, flinching as the motion caused a sharp pain in her side before doing so again more carefully, pointing to the bottom level. “Your map ends here, but it isn't right. There is another twenty levels below that. That is where my proof is, but it is also probably where your father is. They will also probably kill him if you storm the building so if you do have a way inside I suggest you use it.” Invisible floors in an impossible to breach building, in the opposite direction of his goal, where his father might be. She was sure that was winning her a lot of points.

“I understand that.” Amelia let out an exasperated sigh. She was out of idea's and had no way to convince him of what she was telling him. Not that she could exactly blame him for not believing her. They had just met, she had probably killed his father and she had no proof along with the whole hallucination issue. She probably wouldn't believe her either. “I'll be in the medical ward if you need me.” Maybe she would be able to think of a way to convince him if she didn't have the pain in her side distracting her. She gave him one last glance before exiting the room.

Amelia woke with a start, heart racing, breath in short panicked bursts and covered in sweat. The nightmares she had predicted of course plagued her sleep, but they seemed relatively minor to the larger issue of the hallucinations. She glanced at the clock before laying back down and taking several deep breaths to trying and slow her heart. It was an hour before she needed to be up so there was no point in going back to sleep. She had spent the last two days doing her best to ignore the monsters that seemed to appear with warning or reason. At first she thought if she avoided the dark they would stay away, but a few had appeared in the middle of the day in the presences of others. Despite knowing they weren't real it was hard to ignore a grotesque monster running at you with a sledgehammer. She had flinched at the last second, raising her arm to block the invisible blow, earning herself concerned looks and whispers behind her back. Still Adrian had agreed, well decided, to send an advanced team into the Tower to see what she was talking about. It wasn't optimal, but if she could get him down there fast enough and show him, maybe he could call off the main assault before it was too late for the others. It was better than nothing and she figured if she continued to press him about the matter nothing was exactly what she was going to get.

With a groan she rolled over and got up. Her left side was still tender, but it was much better than it had been only a couple of days ago. Simple things like breathing or walking no longer caused her pain though there was defiantly a tightness to it. Still she managed to finish getting ready without seeing any monsters so that had to be a positive sign. Maybe she could make it through their trip to the Tower. With a deep breath she left the room to go find Adrian.

Amelia stood with her arms crossed as Adrian spoke to the others with a small smile across her lips. It sounded good, it really did, being in the world again. Even living at their base at been rather enjoyable despite her other issues. Even the mundane things like choosing what to eat and how much with no computer her to tell her what to do were exciting. The people living under Sybil's rule weren't really living. In fact they were more like robots than it was, doing whatever the computer told them to do. The others cheered and the idea of liberation was infectious, it really was. Even if it proved her wrong she truly wanted the attack to be successful. As the others went to grab any last minute item's and get to the vehicle Amelia approached Adrian instead. “Let me guess. Show you were you need to go and stay out of the way? Do I at least get a gun?” She could understand him not wanting to give her one under the circumstances, but they were ending into a battle and it would be nice not to be completely defenseless.
