Chapter 3

"That's your brilliant plan?! We blow up the lab?" Marco shouted.

"Yeah." Jake shrugged, it was the best thing he could think of that will stop the completion of Parasite Eve and stop them from making more, temporarily if not permanently.

"I like it Jake." Rachel said with a smile.

"Now we KNOW it's a bad idea! If Rachel likes it it HAS to be bad!"

"Jake, blowing up the lab? Isn't that a bit much?" Eva asked, trying to calm her son.

"No. It's not like we'll be killing anything."

"Yes you will. Parasite Eve is an actual being, not a cyborg or an android! She is real."

"A test tube baby?"

"She's actually supposed to be a teen, most likely around your age."

"Oh. Crap."

"I say we still blow up the lab. She'll never be completed that way."

*Why don't we just give the computer a virus?* Tobias said, preening his feathers.

It was almost like a light bulb turned on over Ax's head, *That is a brilliant idea! Prince Jake, we infect the computer system hooked up to PE01! It would damage the encoding and render her useless. She won't die, because she would have never been alive in the first place!*

"Ax, you and Eric make the virus. Eva, help them. Marco, you and Ax will download the virus into the computer."

"Problem, Jake." Eva said, "The lab's computers aren't hooked up to the Mothership's mainframe like the other computers. We can still download the virus into the Mothership's computer and destroy everything, but it won't stop the lab computer. We'd have to go in and download it into the computer directly. You know, Independence Day style."

"Okay than. Download it into the Mothership, then we'll leave to mess up Project Parasite Eve."
