Aquatium
I was updated on recent proceedings by my crew, after seeing the logs and the filed report, it was clear, The General had something new to throw at us, these... new commandos. We urgently need to get more intel and see what we can find out.

I was hoping to get some news from Tyndall soon, so we can investigate this matter further, as she was in contact not long after...

Aquatium
I made my way to the provided co-oridinates, just as suspected there was a commando, he was KIA very fast.

Commando
They're here! Open fire!

Aquatium
Just as I killed him another attacker shown themselves and providing to be more difficult to terminate, which did eventually happen.

Aquatium
It was this new weapon, these "Elite" Commandos.

Aquatium
It did seem like a trap, that they knew we would go there. We must be careful.

I updated Tyndall on the results of the operation.

Aquatium
How I would like to see the son of a ...., you get the idea. We kill enough of his men, that should lure him, or a least try to find out what will be his next plan of action.

As advised I went to meet the Oracle and gather what information I could from her.

Zion Upgrade Artist
I think I've gained about ten pounds since I got this assignment. That woman can cook!

Zion Upgrade Artist
I asked the Oracle if Morpheus would come back, and she said that we can never go back to exactly how things were before. I don't get it. Do you think she meant that he would come back, or not?

Zion Karate Grandmaster
It's been really quiet here. It's starting to make me nervous. I almost wish the Merv would try something again.

Aquatium
I hope we get to see the passion people spoke about that Morpheus emitted, though I never met him I knew of his actions, though towards the apparent end his actions were...questionable.

I went to the Oracle and spoke about what could be on the Generals agenda....war.

The Oracle
Now you're getting it. He misses what he was--an old military program. He misses war. He'd just love for you and the Machines to be duking it out in the streets again. Right now, he thinks you're on the brink of that. He took Sati in order to destabilize things--to push them over the edge.

He might be starting to realize that he made a mistake--that having him as your common enemy is pushing you back together. You've got to drive that home.

You know what I'd do? Get Niobe and Agent Gray together for a great, big hug. I mean it.

Aquatium
Somehow I really can't see that happening Oracle. Though I understand what you are saying about the General.

The Oracle
That's it! Never doubt the power of love, Aquatium. You'll see.

Aquatium
Indeed Oracle.

I was intriguied by this suggestion and updated Tyndall.

Aquatium
I made my way to the intial meeting point. Ghost and Pace were there.

Agent Pace
I have been helping operative Ghost rehearse our lines. I will say "We are pleased that this attack by the General has allowed us to engage in mutual cooperation, human," and operative Ghost will say "I thank you on behalf of Zion, Agent," and we will embrace! I suggested that we rehearse the embrace as well, but operative Ghost felt that would not be necessary.

Aquatium
Ghost...is Ghost.

Ghost
I...

*CENSORED* it, it's hard enough as it is, but I can't do this with those two over there leering at me. They insist that they're here to guard me. Just come up with some pretext for getting them out of here, all right?

I don't care! Anything!

Aquatium
Got it.

I used my wit, charm and charisma to get rid of the other guards. Wasn't too hard.

Francis
His wish is my command. Let's go!

Aquatium
On my way.

Aquatium
I don't know, something isn't right...

Aquatium
You tell me, I need you watching my back.

Aquatium
Yea I got them all, we need to really do something so you can detect them..

As for the visual recoding, it looks to be a Holograph of the General, one moment. I went upto the Holograph.

Holographic Projection
This is the General. I know you recognize me, Ghost.

You're a fool. You always were. The Machines are using you, just like they used me. Once you've served their purpose, those lovely arms you just left will break you in half oh-so-efficiently.

I had thought you experienced enough to realize this, but I can see that I overestimated you. You have a lesson to learn, and you'll only learn it the hard way. Very well, I believe I can accommodate you. Consider this fair warning; it's the only one you'll get.

Aquatium
I'm not sure what happened, lets find out. I contacted Tyndall.

Aquatium
Well at least we have him out of hiding now. We will be alert for anything.
