SONG ENDS

INT. SYSTEM'S BUILDING-WHITE ROOM

BURGY holds up the HOLO DISC that she had received from BENJAMIN.

BURGY
Everything we needed evidence wise is on this disc. As well as a plethora of evidence collected that we have obtained from BENJAMIN'S estate.

SYSTEM
ALL DECREES AND STATUS'S UNDER LANCE REED HAS BEEN OFFICIALLY REVOKED EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY. AND WHAT NEWS ON THE ALPHA RECLAIMER NOW USURPER, CHRISTIAN DOYLE?

BURGY
Nothing, everything about him has seemingly been a lie. No real residence, no accounts, no registered cars, even weapons. A ghost basically.

SYSTEM
AND WHAT FRONT HAS BEEN MADE ABOUT THESE FOLLOWER'S?

BURGY
None were taken alive, the one's wounded committed suicide. Everything has gone quiet. The OVERSEER'S who attacked us that survived have gone into hiding, no evidence has been found of any form of worshiping or future attack. We're blind right now, and the threat is out there...looming, preparing.

SYSTEM
IN ANY CASE, WE MUST GO FORWARD AS IS. MINDFUL OF WHAT IS OUT THERE, BUT NOT FEARFUL OF THE CLOUD THEY WANT TO HANG OVER US.

BURGY
With all due respect...They hit us hard, here, everywhere. The numbers are staggering, half of our forces have been either decimated or turned. We are wounded, and they know it, they won't wait long to come back at us, we need to find them before they come and finish what they have started!

SYSTEM
WE HAVE ENDURED WORSE.

BURGY
This was just the beginning, not an isolated event...this was a step one, in an elaborate and well thought plan and if we do not act then everything we have built and fought, and died for will be for naught.

SYSTEM
YOUR OPINIONS HAVE BEEN NOTED, BURGY. WE WILL CONVENE SOON ON PLANS OF ACTIONS.

BURGY
It may be too late by that point.
