Chapter Text
In case you are unaware, on December 25th of 2021 a man who the government erased from existence, returned to earth with a bang. He blew up the San Francisco facilities, killing just under 30 people. Eyewitnesses say he took Secret Service (SS) Agent Stone with him before disappearing into the night. All of Robotnik Tech has suddenly gone haywire and the very fundamentals of US security have been compromised as a result. Still no word from the missing Agent.
Robotnik was as far as I can gather a secret military engineer, known for his dramatic flare and distaste for all of mankind. The man had a reputation for being a nightmare to work with. He was important enough to have a SS Agent by his side. (Important Note: Looking at Agent Stones file, his reassignment date lines up with an insubordination charge. It’s quite likely someone in the offices thought it would be funny to assign him to Dr. Robotnik as a punishment.)
The more I ask around the less sense all of this makes. Why would an insubordinate Agent do well under a hard-ass like Robotnik? And more importantly, what about the doctor made him risk his job in order to go into hiding with him. There has to be something I’m missing here.
It’s clear the government did not anticipate his return. Government files frequently show signs of alteration, official documentation is truly a lost cause. Whatever this was they really wanted to cover it up. There’s not a single file on record about this man, as far as they were concerned dead men needed no files. Mistakes were made. In order to fill this gap of information the US Government has hired my detective services. My job is to recover forgotten information about a man who never existed from the only person who seemed to care about his disappearance: SS Agent Stone.
It is currently December 27th of 2021, and unfortunately, the Agent is completely absent. However, he did leave his phone, a laptop and a metric ton of Notebooks behind. There’s A lot to catch up on. I would like to start by putting all of his various entries in order by date and time. I do not currently have the security clearance or technical ability to crack into the man’s Laptop, is there any way I could get clearance for that? Files will be marked and dated in DSE (Days Since Erasure). It may seem tedious now but by retracing his steps I’m certain this will piece together a larger picture. Id be happy to share with you my findings as I slog through it all.
Sincerely, Detective N.
Thank you for reaching out to me Detective, it seems you’re in luck. Under normal circumstance this kind of security clearance would not be granted to a private entity. This is not normal circumstance. A lacky from security should be on his way to deliver you the keys to the castle. Have fun and do keep me posted.
