>>>>>[ I don't know how, but I'm still jacked in and alive. My deck is
pretty
messed up but still somehow working. When CEROK was absorbed by MONICA/RUFUS,
the whole place kinda, well blew up! They radiated a massive wave of ASIST
overload through the system. All I can see from the location of the battle is
a glowing white light. Something is coming out of the light !!!! It looks like
SPLUT!!!!!!!! ]<<<<<

>>>>>[ Greetings friend. I am glad that you have survived. I am not
Splut,
at least not as you knew him. I am the result of the combination of the ones
called RUFUS and MONICA, as well as the personality of Splut that MONICA
absorbed. I am the fulfillment of the self destructive code imbedded in MONICA
when she absorbed Splut. I, the result, am slowly fading as my code deletes
itself. MONICA was a cold, heartless embodiment of greed, RUFUS had a child's
innocence, and Splut contributed the passion for a free matrix. These
conflicting directives are killing me. Do not grieve. This is what had to
happen, it is better this way. Promise us one thing, see that those who made
this nightmare come to life are brought to justice! Goodbye friends, remember
us in your legends! ]<<<<<

>>>>>[ They're gone, all three of them. I guess it had to end this way.
It's
time to lick our wounds, and mourn our dead. It's time to rest a while before
continuing after Quention and his people. In the spirit of Doctor Doom, I feel
the need to quote:

Fire Answers Fire, and through their paly flames
each battle sees the other's umbered face.
--William Shakespeare

I hope that it's really over, someone may try to repeat this experiment, and
that MUST NOT be allowed to happen. ]<<<<<
