The Zero Day bombings have plunged London into a state of martial law 

The first incarnation of Dedsec London has been destroyed. The second has yet to rise.

And four thousand miles away in Chicago...

The police sirens are doing a police chase on the vigilante that they haven't seen in years. Aiden was in a parked car underneath a highway hiding from the cops. Aiden phone was starting to vibrate even though he was laying fully down in his driver's seat, Aiden groans while pulling it up and start answering his phone. Aiden exhale before he answered the phone. "Phone's burnt, make it quick," said Aiden. "I'm like your one friend, Aiden, you should be nicer to me," said Jordi on the phone. "Great. I'm hanging up now," said Aiden but Jordi stopped him. "It's a job, jackass. Fixer gig, I can't take it. Travel restrictions," said Jordi. "I told you, I'm not doing that hired gun work anymore," said Pearce. "Oh come on, it's corporate espionage-- scumbags screwing scumbags. No bystanders, huge payday," said Jordi. "Mmhm. What's the catch?" Aiden asked. "It's in London. Which is not the easiest place to get to these days," said Jordi. Aiden looked into his car and looked at the pitcher of him, his sister, and his nephew Jackson when he was ten years old. "London... That's where Jackson lives," said Aiden. "Yeah. Why do you think I called you asshole?" said Jordi. "Okay I gotta go," said Aiden. Aiden took something out of his phone through it out the car window and droved off. Aiden was on a boat sailing to London. He exhale the person on the boat opened the door and approached Pearce. He gave Aiden something hot to drink since it's been cold recently. Aiden grabbed the drink from the person's hand and the stranger spoke. "To help you blend in," said the stranger. Aiden put the optik on the side of Aiden head. The stranger chuckled and said "Everyone here must wear one now," said the stranger. "Hm," said Aiden. "Your car fell through. The London bombings, uh... they changed everything. Many things are hard to get now," said the stranger. "Car won't be a problem," said Aiden. "Oui, good. But it is also flat. You have somewhere else you can go? Family?" he asked. "It's complicated," said Aiden. "Eh, it is okay. Still family, non? You will see," he said. The caption of the boat headed back inside to steer the boat. "Yeah... I will see," said Aiden. He turned around and see the London Bridge he has finally made it to London where his nephew is. Aiden got off the boat and headed into the taxi to town. He got out of the taxi and got information from an unknown person. "Thank you for accepting Fixer contact 1138-42-42. Investigate Merger between Brocatech Corp. And Rempart Automated Defense System SA, hereafter "Rempart SA". Context. Rempart SA is a French private security firm, specializing in robotic forces. Last April, they made overtures to acquire London's Brocatech, which specializes in advanced AI systems. But negotiations have stalled. Thomas Rempart, CEO of Rempart SA, sabotage the deal after Brocatech spun off it's "Deep Labs" division into a new corporate entity. But even without the Deep Labs, shareholders of both companies stand to make millions. So why is Thomas Rempart doing this? Objective. Rempart's delay is illegal under French Law. Infiltrate the Deep Laps and discover what Thomas Rempart is willing to risk lawsuits over. Recover documents and physical samples to support. R.O.E. Discretion recommended," said the unknown. After listening to that to give information about Thomas Rempart. "Get in, get the evidence, get out," said Aiden. As he headed inside the building and reached the elevator as he got out. He heard an Rempart guard sounded like he was in pain. "What the hell was that? Gotta' make this quick... Need to find a security hub. Might be a way to unlock that door in there," said Aiden. He went to the security room and started hacking away into the computers. Aiden finally got the door unlocked and headed inside. He took down a few guards and went into the deep labs and took some pitchers on his phone. Aiden found an unconscious guard as he searched the body he found electric burns. Witch Aiden finds it random he realized he's not the only one here inside the building. Aiden got the evidence but still needs to head to the deep labs for more. "Rempart's "MK2" robots don't work without this "BrocaBridge," and he's already sold a million units. So... He needs the gadget or he's screwed," said Aiden. Aiden finally found evidence that he needs. He hacked when he was hacking into the server the guards were alerted. Aiden took care of the guards and when the evidence was completed he went took down some guards that were there and left. He headed to go get the BrocaBridge. He went inside the door that opened. "This must be where they make this "BrocaBridge." Might as well get some photos of this too," said Aiden. After a photo of it, Aiden went to go a get it. As he was getting it the BrocaBridge was being taken by someone invisible. Aiden shot him and the man spoke. "WHOAH- whoah- Woah-woah!! Easy, EASY!! I-- Hey, U know you!" said Wrench. "Give me that," said Aiden. "This? Uhmm..." said Wrench. Aiden counted down while Wrench was thinking of a way to keep it and escape with it. Wrench throws a smoke bomb at Aiden and made a break for it. Aiden went after Wrench while they were running and talking at the same time. "Man, you are spry for an old guy!" said Wrench. "Just drop the device and you can go," said Aiden yelling. "No! I told you, I need it!" said Wrench. "This isn't personal, just stop!" said Aiden. "Speak for yourself! You stop," said Wrench. Wrench was getting on Aiden's nerves even while chasing around inside the building. Wrench locked the door so that Aiden couldn't follow him anymore but Aiden unlocked the door in seconds. "Nice try, pal, but you're out of runway. Open the door," said Aiden. "Uh... No thanks?" said Wrench. "You're from that Dedsec group in San Francisco, aren't you?" Aiden asked. "You mean the one that busted you out of the cage guarded by sweaty eastern European gangsters?" said Wrench. "Seem to remember that was mostly your friend," said Aiden. After hacking into the room where Wrench was. Wrench blew up a wall and jumped on his drone to get away but Aiden caught up to him. Aiden and Wrench were fighting on the drone Wrench threw a stun bomb at Aiden which made Aiden fall off the drone to a hard ground. "Ooo! He's fine, he's fine.. walk it off, pal," said Wrench. While Wrench got away Aiden was taken to go meet Thomas Rempart himself. Thomas was shaking a can at Aiden to make him wake up. Aiden groans in pain from what happened to him. "My people dug this out of your chest. If it was one inch in any other direction, we wouldn't be talking," said Thomas. Thomas told Aiden about the files that he downloaded from his Brocatech building. "The ones about me. They're all technically true, yeah. But I feel like they didn't quite give you the full story," said Thomas. Thomas put down the tablet and talked about the robots that were in the room. But all Thomas needs was that device that Wrench took Thomas thinks Wrench is his partner but he isn't. "I don't... know that guy," said Aiden. "Silence was a better strategy than lying there, Mister Pearce," Thomas. Thomas gave the single to torcher Aiden to get the answer out of him but he got nothing. "Are you done? Look, I don't know that guy, but I can find him. I'm good at that. You just have to let me go," said Aiden. "I just don't think I can trust you without some kind of... insurance. Perhaps your nephew, Jackson? Hm?" said Thomas. Aiden didn't want to go through what happened to Jackson when he was younger. "I offered you a good deal. Take it," said Aiden. Thomas laughed at Aiden but Thomas wants to believe him but he doesn't. "Look, I'll return once my little helper here has made you a bit more... trustworthy. Hm?" said Thomas. Thomas left Aiden being tazed while the room was filled with Aiden's screams and painful groans. "If you're still listening, wait. Look, I've been here before. I know how this goes. If I go after you, you go after Jacks. And even if I win... Then your people go after my people. And on and on and on and on and I don't have much of that left in me..." said Aiden. Wrench was watching him through the cameras and decided to help him out. Wrench hacked the robot to overheat and when the robot overheat he hacked the server to free Aiden. Aiden falls while groaning in pain as he got up and left the room he spoke "Something tells me that wasn't Rempart." Aiden went to go get his stuff and left the room. Aiden went to get his things and realized it was being guarded by a robot. As he was getting them undetected. "Oh thank the fake baby Jesus, it worked! So... uh, you didn't mean all that about hunting me down and stuff, right? We're cool?" said Wrench. "Not even close. You almost killed me," said Aiden. "It was a stun bomb! How does teeny little stun bomb almost kill Aiden fucking Pearce?" said Wrench. "A piece of that little stun bomb wound up in my chest," said Aiden in an angry tone. "Ohh. Yeah, no that's not what that's supposed to do. Look, I got to go, but try to remember that I was the one who saved you from the torture bot, okay? That's worth something, right?" said Wrench. "Wait. Where are you" Aiden asked. "Ha-haaah! Nice try," said Wrench. Aiden dropped the little spider robot and went into the little hole that it can fit through. Aiden unlocked the with a little help from the spider robot and got his stuff. Aiden got dressed and his weapons and left the building while taking down the robot. He left the building now it was time to call his nephew. "Alright, how does this thing work? Uh... Bagley? Call Jackson Pearce," said Aiden. "No public listing for "Jackson Pearce" can be found on the Blume network," said Bagley. "Pull it from my encrypted files. Voiceprint ID "Lena." And drop a pin at his address," said Aiden. "Done. Calling him now," said Bagley. Bagley tried to call Jackson but there was no answer. Aiden realized he have to go meet Jackson face-to-face at his nephew's place. While Aiden was driving to Jackson's apartment he got a call from Thomas Rempart.
