"Dammit! What went wrong?" I shout, annoyed. "M-Miss, maybe it needs to be upgraded?" I hear a nervous voice among the members who actually attended this meeting say. "It was upgraded!" I reply.
"Maybe, you know, let it set in a littl'. The upgrade could of cause somethin' that makes the AI take time."
"Oh shut it Alex."
"Everyone, calm down! I want this to be a damn civilised meeting. And if not, you'll be instantly offering yourself for testing!" I order, and almost instantly everyone stops arguing. "Thank you. Anyways, does anyone know what could cause what happened. As, the trio," An image of the trio - Jane, Jake and Glitchy - appear behind me, "May use this time against us, and even if I have Jane under control, it possibly will soon run out, or Glitchy will override it. So, any ideas?"
"Why not test it on others, and if it happens again, make the dose stronger." One suggests.
"Or just capture the trio, test it on them with slightly bigger doses." Another suggests.

"This may sound stupid, but I know a girl." One says, and the young man stands up. He goes over to the computer and changes the picture to a young girl with vibrant green hair, a dark blue eye and a purple eye, as well as pink freckles. "I know this woman, Violet Alphyne, 13, smartest kid of her age. What about her?" I ask, and the man continues. "As you said, Ms Hayrus, she's the smartest kid of her age. She may be able to tackle the issue, if we manage to get her to work for us." I sigh. "You do know she's crazy, and what happened was purely because of some lab mishaps." I reply. The man nods. "She's crazy, but she's smart. She organised her own escape from day one of being in the lab, and predicted how many days - 2 years - it would take to escape; she was off by a single day. "
"I guess she will do, where is she?" I ask.
"That's the thing, we don't know."
