Level 5 Flight Deck Logs

Play Audio Download Audio I learned that I am under investigation by Trioptimum Internal Security. We have to burn the evidence. The logs of the experiments are protected by the security system SHODAN, so I am hiring a programmer to crack it. With control of SHODAN, we will also own the robots and other systems on the station. That will be my shield if they try and oust me.

Play Audio Download Audio Report to Trioptimum Security on Edward Diego. We’re going to nail this sucker soon. On my first day working for him as personal secretary, I found huge evidence in the research computer cyberspace of a cover-up. Nothing to link it with the mutagen experiments, but I am still trying. Diego has personal locks on a lot of the files I need. Today, the body of a staffer who protested Diego’s involvement was found stuffed in a service corridor, horribly mutilated. This thing is big; my own life may be in danger.

Play Audio Download Audio Please replace first aid kits in the life pods for flight bays 2 and 3, and also run diagnostic checks on the jettison controls.

Play Audio Download Audio The service bridge in flight bay 4 has blown several fuses. I set up temporary circuit breakers on a control panel across the bay to try and find which field generator is causing the overload. Until we fix it, you will have to play with the combinations of these circuit breakers to get it working as best you can.

Play Audio Download Audio A security bot went nuts in the convection shaft, firing off its cannons before we could shut it down with an EMP grenade. I don’t know what it is with the robots these days. Anyway, the bearings in the northeast convection shaft rotor are leaking oil. The rotor probably needs a new gasket. I left the repulsors on for maintenance workers to lift up to the top.

Play Audio Download Audio The access corridors are patrolled by cyborgs. I had been hoping to use them as an alternate route to flight bay 4. What are they guarding?

Play Audio Download Audio We will never get out of this alive, I thought we could reach the life pods in flight bay 2, but SHODAN was waiting for us. Cyborg guards with more firepower than I had ever dreamed possible ambushed us and have us pinned by some crates. I used my best judgment. Please forgive me.

Play Audio Download Audio To all flight bay maintenance personnel. We have a serious emergency on our hands. You all remember what happened yesterday when the Trioptimum shuttle tried to land. The defense system fired without executive control and blew it right out of the hangar. Today I want a complete sweep of all defense systems, including the computer node in the south repair center, and the shell cannons. If it is related to the problems with SHODAN we’ve been having lately, take the node offline.

Play Audio Download Audio To Cyborg 65-V: You are directed to keep all robots, cyborgs and mutants away from the Beta grove on the executive level. I will not tolerate interference with my experiments there. Also, you must post a guard to make sure none of the subjects escape from the grove while the experiment is in progress.

Play Audio Download Audio Don Travers had me examining the flight bay defense relays all morning, and the search turned up something disturbing. It seems that SHODAN sent an un-identified signal to the weapons 78 milliseconds before they fired. Don then had me go to disconnect the CPU node, but there was a crazy maintenance bot that almost killed me when I got too close! This whole thing is getting stranger and stranger.

Play Audio Download Audio We’re all still reeling from the disaster two days ago. I did a complete check on the defense systems, and couldn’t find anything wrong with them...except, of course, that they fired seemingly on their own. I’m going to take the system completely off line until we find out what the problem is. After all, there’s no point in risking another incident.

Play Audio Download Audio It is too late for us. Albert and I are the last of the resistance, hiding out in the communications room. The rest were massacred by the horrible cortex reaver. They are cutting through the door now. If anyone finds this, I want to reveal what we have learned about SHODAN. If the mutagen virus and the mining laser projects fail, SHODAN is going to download itself into Earth’s network using the communications system. We have been trying to reach the engineering level to knock out the antennas, but it seems now that we were not strong enough. I am going to end it now, before they make me into one of them.
