As Cybebe finishes her shift for the security company, she makes her way back to her apartment in Area18. She sheds her uniform and gets into something more comfortable. The coffee machine whirrs and steams as it brews a fresh cup for Cybebe. In the corner of her eye she sees a notification light on her computer blinking. She adds a little bit of sugar to her coffee and makes her way over to the screen. What she sees next comes as an absolute shock. The notification is of a news story -- an accident... an explosion at Elysium Technologies... her parents' lab. She grabs the screen in disbelief, pulling it closer as she listens to the news anchor talking about the explosion, the accident... the lives lost. The name of her parents mentioned on the list. Cybebe cries out, tears streaming down her face. "This can't be!" Her coffee spills onto the floor. "My parents! ...they..." she loses grip of the mug entirely and it hits the cold floor, shattering into pieces. "This was no accident..! They were so close to finishing the Elysium Pulse, its no coincidence... who would do such a thing..." Later that evening Cybebe receives notice of where the funeral will be held. "MicroTech... 24 hours after the accident.. why so promptly?" She thinks to herself as she prepares for the journey from ArcCorp to MicroTech. She gets her hoverbike ready, filling it up with fuel before loading it into her personal ship, the small but trusty Drake ship that she calls, The Reverie. She sits in the cockpit, surrounded by a jumble of wires, blinking consoles, and screen displaying navigation data. Her fingers hover over the controls, heart pounding with anticipation as she preps for the quantum jump.
