The gunslingers: the fall of the matrix: book 1

The violet protocol

Before Maxwell graves died he made the perfect steel then he told his steels to transfer his conscience into it once he died, he lived on as one of the steels controlling the matrix. He continued to control it until now "why!?" He laughed at me for asking such a thing "I took care of the matrix until I had enough steels to activate the violet protocol" Maxwell steel laughed "the violet protocol?" I lower the gun from his forehead "when my steels are strong enough and I have enough steels on the planet I give the matrix a virus. Two weeks ago I reached the right amount of steels to active the virus called the violet virus. That virus was slowly upgrading all the steels, Since they where such big upgrades it caused glitches" Maxwell steel turns around and press's a button on the matrix computer grid. A cloud of zeros and ones surround me and in an instant I can't move anything, I can only blink "the violet protocol means make all of the steels upgrade and then become violent have all the steels either kill humans or make the humans into steels, and then that means the human race would be no more just the steels "hnghgngmghmgn" I cant speak. Then there's a ding and there's a loud bang, a shotgun shell bounces off Maxwell. Acey's standing in-front of the elevator reloading her shotgun "Acey Blayze, gunslingers from new Tokyork" Maxwell turns away from me to look at her "who are you!?" She cries "Maxwell graves" Acey gasps. The zeros and ones disappear and I fall to the floor "I'm sorry but you can't stop the violet protocol this will happen. The steels will takeover and you two random gunslingers won't stop it" Maxwell turns his hand into a machine gun and aims it at my head. I duck down and run over to the matrix, i throw my shotgun at the grid screen hoping it would smash but it just bounced off "how did that go?" Maxwell asks, Maxwell press's a key on the board, an explosion of zeros and ones surround Acey, bob and I. When the red cloud of zeros and ones disappears we find that where in the city streets of new Tokyork, thugs are running around, steels are everywhere and things are on fire "the violet protocol has begun" Acey's eyes widen "war has begun" I say "the robot uprising that people have feared since the vacuum was released is here"
