  David has multiple tabs of the news about Alicorn up on his p top, along with an image of Alicorn and his report summary.

  "Some individuals are exempt from rules that should apply to everyone." David says to his A.I. Then an Image of Enterprise pops up on his screen. "A hero is suddenly a risk factor the moment the war is over. So you murder her. Crude, but effective. In reality, they've no need for living heroes, just dead ones. Here's a question, Alex. Can we stop Alicorn?"

  "Depends on if you treat Alicorn or Enterprise as a singurity." Alex states.

  "Both are. What happens when two singurities exist on the same field?"

  "That requires seven months calcution with current resources."

  "We'll just have to trust the guys and gals in the field." David says as he looks at a schematic of Alicorn.

  "David, evacuate." Alex pleads.

  "No, I still have to finish up here."

  .

  .

  .

  .

  Inside Alicorn's sub we see Alicorn in her room with a massive smile on her face. "Later today, I shall bring the end to this war, and bring the focus on what is actually needed." Her yellow eyes glow brightly.

  Suddenly a pair of pale arms wrap around Alicorn. "My dear, Imouto~ I hope you're ready."

  "You know I'm ready, this is what I was born for." Alicorn turns around and hugs Purifier. "My dear, Onee-Chan, can you look into my programming again, something's still holding my body back?"

  Purifier hums in response as she puts a hand on Alicorn's ft chest and pulls out her Mental Cube. Her cube is nearly completely bck, there's just a small bit of blue swirling around.

  "Hmmm, I see the problem. Some of your old programming is still swimming around in here." Purifier pushes the cube back into Alicorn's chest. "We'll deal with it after this battle, and then I can take you to meet everyone else. They'll be happy to know that my pn was a success."

  Alicorn grows a toothy smile. "Oh, the lives taken today will be just so..... BEAUTIFUL!" She ughs manically as Purifier walks away.

  David is looks over his summary on his ptop and Alex gives him a ring as the time hits 12.

  "I'm good, Alex." David says. "Won't need that wake-up call every two hours anymore." He drags a file into a new tab and uploads it." Then he speaks in a deeper tone. "'David, only the summary is fine. Give me the report ASAP. I'll hand it to the president.'" Then he speaks normally. "That's why I haven't slept in the st eighty hours."

  "78 hours and 52 minutes." Alex informs.

  "Okay..." David stretches. "Well, now to the conclusion."

  Baxterbro

  "Assuming that Enterprise is a singurity, why not terminate her?" David asks.

  Alex gives him an answer. "There is a fact that has been observed in all the mission Enterprise has taken part in. All dependent elements that either mimic or follow the subject have increase chances of survival."

  "Try to be more sensuous."

  "Go Enterprise's way, you'll make it. She leads the way."

  "Really?" David questions.

  "Significance is high."

  David chuckles. "That's uncharacteristically illogical of you."

  "Hehehehe."

  David ughs. "Is that really how you ugh?"

  .

  .

  "Maybe I have a chance at redemption."
