BECCA'S JOURNAL:
The pass codes Chris had sent in his encrypted files allowed us access to Cadogans computer. Everything was there, confirmation that Chris was a Second Dawn member. This explained his reluctance to fully erase the A.L.I.E code even when I expressed the importance of shutting her down.
He had given Cadogan access to A.L.I.E under the notion he would use the A.I to scare our Governments into reducing their nuclear weapons and technological dependency that controlled such things as air strike drones. He never knew Cadogan intended to use A.L.I.E to bring about his warped apocalyptic prophecy. Cadogan was no prophet, he was a liar and a murderer.
These files also showed the existence of eleven other bunkers spread across the North East of the USA, some as far as the Canadian border. From what Arturo could assess none of them had the same life support systems Cadogan's twelfth bunker had. They would offer no protection from the effects of nuclear fallout. Those who would have sought shelter there were sent to their deaths, at least that's what Cadogan thought.
There must have been those who survived, natural selection had it's way even in the harshest of conditions. To Cadogan these survivors were a liability, a cold truth of what he had done to his own followers. He'd taken their funding, their hope and knowingly sentenced them to death.
Twelve stages of enlightenment, twelve seals, twelve bunkers all just an elaborate plan for Cadogan to bring about his Second Dawn. This self proclaimed saviour of mankind was about to fall from grace, yet I had my own guilt to confess. We'd all played our part in this destruction, it was time to lay the truth out for all to see.
An uprising was about to happen, the question wasn't 'if' but 'when'.
