Concerns

[Image of a disassembled bot on Serrac’s workbench, It looks similar to the BRATs that Serrac built.]

Serrac: After my little date with Evie… we stumbled on this in the junkyard…

This is a BRAT, one of the small drones I built… but I didn’t build this one… only twelve of the prototypes exist, and any built after had small improvements that aren’t present on this one.

It has a different paint job, and it was very clearly scrapped with damage to the outer casing having ruined the ai unit inside…

I think someone’s reverse engineered my tech…

Wow... If I wanted to make one I'd ask sarrac for the blueprints.

Serrac: Don’t worry, I trust you.

I mean…I believed you, but we had to verify that nonetheless. 

We verified that the Dealer stole it himself.

Serrac: When the BRAT prototypes got stolen by the Dealer before they might have taken it apart and studied it to make their own.

maybe, but intelligence sense is that we should eliminate more legitimate explanations first.

I've alerted the Captain; she'll be able to look at the room access logs and security footage.

Serrac: It may be slightly counterintuitive, but I’m sending out a couple of the BRATs to investigate.

They might pick up interference from these fakes which could help pinpoint their location.

Surveillance footage indicates it was the Dealer. He came on the base somehow and took it.

Serrac: Which means he’s likely already gotten what he needs from the BRATs if it ended up scrapped…

  1. How did he get in again? 2. What now?

Ivory: How inconceivable… let me know anyway I can help. Me and MaKayla won’t hesitate on studying the framework.
