Sometime later

April awoke in her room. She shifted in the bed and came into contact with a tablet.

I don’t remember asking for this… Delta!

April turned on the device, and a webpage with several file names appeared. She gravitated to a file called deployment notes.

I wonder what this is.

She opened the file and started reading. It looked like a recipe for disaster. She caught fragments of sentences that looked menacing.

I think Jet should look at this.

She pulled up Jet’s contact information. She also saw another attached contact: Nigel Watson.

This story has been taken without authorization. Report any sightings.

He’s the boy who shut down Delta. She’s behind this somehow. It couldn’t hurt sending them this information. I’d better do it before Delta comes back. I’m already feeling tired.

April sent the contents of the entire folder to Jet and Nigel. Her vision blurred. Her breath quickened, an uncomfortable wave of fright overcame her. April pressed the call button for the nurse. She had to speak to someone about these thoughts.

I feel Delta trying to push me into unconsciousness so she can take control. Must fight her…

Moments later, Marge opened the door to April’s room.

“Ms. Mason, did you call me?” Nurse Marge asked.

“What’s the meaning of this? I didn’t call you, now get out of here.”

“Well, I received a call from you just a few minutes ago—”

“I did not call you. Now leave.”

The nurse looked upset.

“I don’t think you need this anymore—you should rest,” Nurse Marge said as she snatched the tablet from Delta’s hands.

“Give that back!” Delta screamed.

“I will once you learn how to be respectful.”

“Give it back now, or I will hurt you, real bad,” Delta said.

The nurse thrust the tablet back into the cyborg’s hands and left.
