The Cake is a Lie
Plot Synopsis
Robin wakes up in a horrible place and must face his fears.
Plot Summary
Robin awoke to find himself in the Phobos Enrichment Center where his fears were immediately tested with snakes and the horrors continued from there. All the while comments and instructions were broadcast over the PA system by a strange voice that confused Robin more than anything else. Robin tried to formulate a way out of the facility but could not figure out what needed to be done until he was presented with a automated turret in a live fire exercise.
Using his military training and what he'd learned from Shauna Robin was able to avoid the turret and dismantle it to build himself his own weapon. Using his new weapon Robin was able to complete the course, running into cryptic messages from above and cryptic messages on the wall as he went.
The voice implied that it had known Robin as a child and when it revealed itself to be H.E.A.T.H.E.R.s he still had no idea who or what it was. Robin, having had enough of the computer messing with him, used his new weapon to destroy H.E.A.T.H.E.R.s and find his own way out.
Back on the ship robin related his story to Johnny and showed no interest in finding out who or what was really behind his experience, just that he needed to be more careful with sweepstakes winnings.
On Ronquwen H.E.A.T.H.E.R.s once again transferred her consciousness and decided a more gentle approach would be required.
