Gloria couldn’t believe what she was seeing and doing as she sped through the internet. The route took her to the servers of Venture Gaming System. She could make out so many different connections to the server. She starts to identify the different IP addresses that were connecting to the game system. There were five that she couldn’t identify. Every time she tried to trace the address back to its source, it would bounce to a different computer or computers.

She decides to try a different tactic. She notices the files they were downloading from Venture Gaming System. So, she adds a special piece of code she wrote and add it to the file. When whoever was downloading the file opens it. It will call back to the special server setup at Camelot to trace the file. That way she can backtrace the signal.

Once Gloria was done modifying the code. She heads back to Camelot by the VR route she came. Once Gloria is back, she shuts the program down.

Tinker has been watching Gloria as she moved through cyberspace by the VR unit. She kept her eyes on Gloria’s vitals while she was hooked up to the VR system. So far, Gloria has been gone an hour or two and Tinker was getting concerned. She knew it took Gloria and Morgana a while to hack computer systems, but this new way that Morgana designed was supposed to be faster and easier to do it.

She gives Gloria a few more hours to accomplish what she is doing before she activates the recall system. She continues to monitor Gloria’s vitals and just as she was about to activate the recall system, Gloria takes the helmet off.

“I was getting concerned about you. You’ve been gone for the last four hours.” Tinker shows Gloria her start and end time.

“Damn, it didn’t feel like I was gone that long.” Gloria really didn’t feel that tired.

Tinker walks down from the control room to help Gloria out of the VR rig. Once the gear was off Gloria.

“So, did you find out what was going on with Venture?”

“Nope, but I did set a trap and hopefully they will take the bait. I did notice that the system they were accessing was part of a new game
system Venture is working on. Do you know anything about it?” Gloria looks over towards Tinker.

“No, but I might know someone who does. She’s a freelance game designer that Venture is currently employing.” Tinker hopes Aisha might be
able to shine some light on the matter.

“What’s her name?” Gloria wouldn’t mind speaking to her.

“Aisha Walker.”

“Do you have a phone number or email you can reach her?”

“Yep, I have both. Now, why don’t we get you out of that suit?”

Tinker and Gloria head towards the locker room to take the suit off. Tinker was careful, as she helps Gloria out of the tight rubberized suit.

“You need to come up with a better suit.” Gloria was finally out of the suit.

“I’ll get right on it.” Tinker takes the suit to be cleaned.

Medical Bay:
Caroline walks around examining Morgana and making notes on a Pad Morgana gave her. The medical bed Morgana was laying on, was a new purchase that Camelot recently bought from Blake medical supplies. It was still experimental and Blake Medical was willing to let them test it out and send all medical information back to their research department.

Caroline loved the bed. It had a built-in scanner, that could give the doctor a three-dimensional holographic image. The image showed everything that was wrong with the patient and where the problem was inside the body.

“Where did you get this marvelous medical bed?”

“Blake medical is letting us test it out for them. According to our rep at Blake medical, were one of twenty clients they are testing these beds
with.” Morgana jumped at the possibility to be the first to test these new medical beds.

“I have to say, it makes examining a patient easier.” Caroline looked at the results being transferred to her Pad.

“So, what do you think doctor?” Morgana looks at Caroline with hope in her eyes.

“Well, if these scans of your spine are correct. I think we can go ahead and program the first set of nanites to start working on the damage done to your spinal cord.” Caroline was still looking at the scans.

“How many treatments, do you think I’ll need?” Morgana was curious.

“Well, considering how much damage has been done. I’ll say at least five treatments.”

“But you said earlier, at least four. What has changed?” Morgana didn’t know if she had enough nanites to do five treatments.

“Here, let me show you.” Caroline walks over and shows Morgana the scans she received.

Morgana looks at the scans and notices what Caroline had circled on the scan for her. It looked like a buildup of scar tissue.

“So, the scar tissue is the problem?” Morgana looks up at Caroline.

“Yep. We need to remove all the scar tissue, so we can reconnect or rebuild the nerve endings that had been removed.”

Morgana figures she might be able to build more nanites since she has the blueprints for them. She really wanted to walk again and be able to do some of the things she uses to do.

“I think I can build more nanites. How long will you be able to stay?”

“For a week. Bart is coming back from England and I want to meet my adopted daughters.” Caroline couldn’t wait to meet Laila and Julia.

“I think we can get everything done by then.” Morgana could get to work tonight building new nanites.

“Good. All we have to do now is load the program and let your first set of nanites go to work on your nerves.”

“If you’ll give me a hand. I can get to work on that right now.” Morgana holds her hand up for Caroline.

Caroline helps Morgana into her motorized chair. The two of them leave medical and head down to Morgana’s workshop, where the nanites were stored.

“Here they are.” Morgana shows Caroline the nanites.

Caroline looks at them and wonders who developed them. She knew some countries were still doing development on nanites and the latest test that had been done was on a terminal cancer patient. The doctor used nanites to remove the corrupted cells. They had done so well, the patient lived. The nanites were absorbed and flushed out of his body.

“Morgana, do you know who created these nanites?” Caroline was curious.

“Yes, but he’s dead right now. My friends Kat her husband Paul, Kat’s sister Rebecca and Rebecca’s husband Lev killed the men who created these nanites and modified their daughters.”

“Why would they modify their daughters?” Caroline was curious.

“Because Kat’s and Rebecca’s daughters were transgender and the organization that kidnapped them wanted to make them into true women and sell them off as sex slaves.” Morgana had asked Kat the same question.

“Did it work on them?”

“Yep, all three girls are fully functional women. August, Rebecca’s daughter has a baby.” Morgana had talked with August and discovered she had been pregnant.

“Well, since they managed to change the girl’s let’s get your nanites programmed and fix your spine.”

The next hour or so they figure Morgana and Caroline figure out how to program the nanites. Caroline checks the medical aspect over several times, before giving Morgana the okay to program the nanites.

“Hopefully this will work.” Caroline watches as Morgana transfer them to a special injector.

She charges the injector to energize the nanites with energy. She was feeling nervous as she hands the injector to Caroline.

“Here’s the moment of truth.”

“If we did things right, this should work.” Caroline kneels next to Morgana.

“I have my fingers cross.”

Caroline presses the injector against Morgana’s skin and pulls the trigger. The nanites flow from the injector and into Morgana’s body.

“Hopefully, this will work.” Caroline stands back up and waits to see what happens.
