"Are we positive that the readings are correct?"

"Affirmative. We have verified that there is a signal from the surface that is being redirected by the DEVA satellite."

"Have we been able to decode the signal."

"Negative, though we have seen the signature before."

"Frontier Setter?"

"Affirmative."

"Our intelligence suggest that Frontier Setter has left the system and is no longer a threat to DEVA."

"It appears that this is not the case. Frontier Setter was confirmed to be a self-aware AI. It is our belief that such an abomination could replicate itself. Effectively being in two places at once."

"Is Former System Security Third Officer Angela Balzac aware that this replication remains?"

"We cannot know, our intelligence on the surface has not been able to locate her since the departure of the Genesis Ark."

"What of the whereabouts of Agent Zarik Kajiwara."

"Negative, he has also eluded us since the departure of the Genesis Ark."

"At this time we must work on assumptions. We will assume that Frontier Setter replicated itself before the departure and is now trying to contact Former Third Officer Angela Balzac and Agent Zarik Kajiwara."

"To what ends?"

"The infiltration and possibly the sabotage or destruction of DEVA."

"Course of action?"

"Summon System Security Third Officer Jennifer O'Dey."

"She trained with Former Third Office Angela Balzac. I believe they were friends."

"Would that make her the best candidate to carry out this mission. We have seen the folly of emotion and personal connection."

"This connection is why we will use her. She knows Former Third Officer Angela Balzac well and will be able to determine what course of action would be best suited for this mission."

"Very well, we will summon her."

"System Security Third Officer Jennifer O'Dey, you have been summoned here to take charge of a special operation. As you know, Former Third Officer Angela Balzac has betrayed DEVA and allowed the AI known as Frontier Setter to escape destruction."

"We have begun to receive signals that have the same signature as those used by the AI."

"You have been tasked to travel to the surface and locate the source of this signal and destroy it and whatever may remain of Frontier Setter. Do you understand?"

"Yes, I understand."

"As you also know, Frontier Setter was the cause for the betrayal of Former Third Officer Balzac. You must not be tempted by the same."

"I will not let you down. Angela has disgraced our unit and our class. I will see to it that she is brought to justice."

"You are not to return her to DEVA, you are to destroy her material body while she is still in it. Do you understand?"

"Understood. I will not rest until she has been found and her material body has been destroyed."

"Very well. Select five other System Security officers as your back up and prepare your team."

"Is that necessary? Last time she was armed with a state-of-the-art ARHAN. She can be no match for even one of us now."

"This will be your first mission to the surface Third Officer, you do not know how large it is. Your team will form squads of two ARHANs each and hunt her down."

"We will not fail."

"You will not return to DEVA if you do."

"Third Officer Jennifer O'Dey. We will fabricate an optimized material body using your gene cache, stored at your birth. Maturation, 35 hours."

"Good. I'm coming for you Angela and you will see why you do not cross DEVA."
