((OOC: Since i'll be out for a while probably until Zaura in some shape returns, this is an RP story to keep you guys interested until I get back full-time. Enjoy))
As Namaeresu meditates the recent events with Jobi hunting Espi, Mendelevius trying to get revenge on him, someone else had came into his vision. A silhouette of a shapely mature looking woman walked towards Nam. She stood right in front of him kneeled down, kissed him passionately, and said
"It won't be long now my dear Namaeresu.... I hope you still love me as I still love you. We will be together again.... Save my code..."
As she walked away, Nam went out of his deep state and he got a data drop from Switchblade.
We have found all of Zaura's RSI but some parts are corrupted by Mendelevius' Smith code. We might have to reassemble the RSI frags that arent corrupted and find a way to replace these corrupted fragments. You better think of something if were ever gonna see Zaura again.
Switchblade
Nam forwarded the message to Ilea and Phrack with a little sticky attached to it.
Zaura... She's almost home....
Weeks Later
I was overseeing Zaura's reconstruction process at the research construct installed in Zion's mainframe. Progress has been terribly slow and it is taking forever. But it is necessary I wish to be with my dearest again. All of the sudden I get a message from the phone in the construct.
"Nam, it's Switchblade. The corruption's gotten worse! It's replicating within Zaura!"
"How did you discover it? I thought since her RSI is shattered it can't do jack."
"Well a virus corruption like Smith usually has a mind of it's own. Until we separate the corrupted frags from Zaura, we could have ourselves another Smith-infected operative. Also we need to find replacement frags for the ones we can't use. For instance her panthress ability she could use in the Matrix."
"That will ultimately destroy her RSI! The panther code is in her natural DNA. If that part goes the RSI won't run at all and she will die."
"Well there's a chance she can live without the panther code. Of course if it works she'll be a lot different than she usually was."
"How can we save her without using the panther code?"
"Use your undercover RSI.... Nouhime."
"Wait a sec, it took me 3 hours to perfect that RSI."
"What's another 3 hours to create another female RSI to hide in if you're being hunted? The only way you can save Zaura is if you copy Nouhime's RSI onto her incomplete but uncorrupted RSI. As I said she'll go through some changes. Changes, I know you might like."
"Ahem, lets not go there... I'll fetch Nouhime's RSI"
I return to my ship to bring up Nouhime's RSI I put it in a disk and gave it to Switchblade.
"I hope this yield some positive results.... I've worked hard to create Nouhime you know."
So I return to the construct and I sat beside an incomplete RSI that is Zaura. I laid my head low but then someone held on to my hand. It was Zaura. Though she was incomplete she was conscious enough to muster up the strength to hold my hand and whispered very weakly to me.
"I......
miss.....
you....
my....
dearest....
love...."
Though she was weak as ever, it was the first sign of life I got from her since Mendelevius shattered her RSI. There is still hope left....
