p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN""I have gathered you here today to figure out what to do with the remnants of XANA's technology," The Secretary General begins as he addresses the room of scientists and Defender Command Officers./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN""It's simple. We have to destroy all remnants of the robots and supercomputers," Colonel Sofia says, cutting the Secretary off./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN""Nonsense, the computers and robotics that XANA created are lightyears ahead of anything else that we have ever created. With this technology, we could cure cancer and send a man to Mars in just a few years," the Director-General of UNESCO style="mso-spacerun: yes;" /span/span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN""This technology killed over 50 of my soldiers. It is meant for WAR, not PEACE!" Colonel Sofia says, her words seething with anger./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN""We in China will gladly contribute all of our scientific resources to the study of these robots, so that humanity can turn them from swords into plowshares," the President of the Chinese Academy of Engineering interjects./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN""If the Chinese get this technology they will just weaponize it and use it for evil. We in the US will guarantee that this technology is only used for peace," the Director of the Office for Science and Technology (OSTP) says, sending a deadly looking glare at the Chinese Academy of Engineering President./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN""If only one country has this robotic technology it will give them an unfair advantage in all fields, not just on the battlefield," the UNESCO President says as they bolt upright./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN""Esteemed scientists and politicians of the world. Might I make a little suggestion," Lieutenant Weitzler says as he calmly gets to his feet./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN""As a US citizen, you would be committing treason by giving this technology to the Chinese!" the Director of OSTP says, also rising to their feet./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN""I think the only things that we have established right now is that this technology could be extremely useful to us as a society, but that it is also too dangerous or divisive for any one country to control," Lieutenant Weitzler continues./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN""That being said, we have a few people in this room who are already intimately familiar with XANA's technology- they were the original ones who were dedicated to fighting him before UN Defender Command became involved," Lieutenant Weitzler says as he looks at Jeremy and Aelita./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN""They're just children. They could never understand the complexities of this technology," the Director of the European Institute for Technology and Innovation intones as she rises to her feet./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN""They might be kids, but you have to look at their accomplishments. Jeremy managed to restore Aelita from a shadow of a human to a full human. Aelita is the daughter of the creator of Lyoko and XANA, and she has shown an amazing talent for programming and computer work. Combined, they were able to create their own mini Lyoko- complete with scanners for UN Defender Command to use as a base for a submarine capable of exploring the network. Combined, they were able to create a program to give their friends the same abilities that they had in Lyoko, which helped to tip the scale in our favor when it came to fighting XANA. They also created the antivirus that finally destroyed XANA," Lieutenant Weitzler says calmly. /span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN""Besides their scientific ability, they also recognize the danger that this equipment poses if it falls into the wrong hands. I am confident that they will demilitarize this equipment and turn it into something that will serve humanity," Lieutenant Weitzler continues./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN""Based on this, I recommend that we create a nonprofit robotics company that is led by Aelita Stones and Jeremy Belpois, whose mission will be to harvest XANA's technology for the good of humankind. This company will be privately owned, and will be overseen by a board led by UN Defender Command, with representatives of UNESCO and other international scientific organizations like IEEE as its board members. This will guarantee that no one country or organization can control this technology. As much as I don't like the idea of this technology being kept around, this will allow us to use it for good while also preventing it from falling into the wrong hands or dividing us," Lieutenant Weitzler finishes./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN""I think that this is a fair compromise. What do you think Jeremy and Aelita?" the President of the IEEE asks. /span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN""We're in, but the headquarters have to be near Kadic so that we can remain with the rest of our friends," Jeremy says after he finishes whispering with the other Lyoko Warriors./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN""Paris also has many great universities, which would provide them with the skilled workers that they would need to help with their work," The Director of the European Institute for Technology and Innovation agrees./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN""All in favor?" The UN Secretary General asks./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN"Almost everyone raises their hands./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN""All opposed?" The UN Secretary General asks./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN"The President of the Chinese Academy of Engineering raises his hand./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN""Any abstentions?" The Secretary General asks./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN"Colonel Sofia raises her hand./span/p
p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN""Then it's settled then. Thank you for your time. We will convene the first advisory board to this new company in one month," The Secretary General finishes./span/p
