Student Example #2

“Buggers are very interesting creatures as they seem to follow a hive mind pattern. However some seem to “disconnect” from the hive mind and run away. How this happens i am unsure of. The main point however is that these disconnected buggers have became friendly with us. This is why i started the program. For peace. Many have protested and it has proven to be controversial. I now hide the buggers with people who didn’t protest the idea of peace. The war feels like it’ll get better or worse. I can’t tell. All i know is that the new commander they have is deadly. I know for sure he’s responsible for 2 deaths.” -15:04-17:23 The Last Known recording of Anthony Frederick.

Frederick was a genius and brilliant man no matter what you thought of his cause. He was found dead 3/16/2125. His study of the unknown and buggers helped many through the generation. HE was greatly known for Paradox. A team of both buggers and humans who learn science, survival, and many more. These buggers have been ~~“disconnected” from the hive mind from the queen.~~ Some call it a Terrorist organization, others a society, but you can’t deny Anthony Frederick was a great man.

Eevdo finished reading the document. Why were people believing this fake news? He was obviously sleeping. It didn’t even matter since everyone only seemed to get more upset when he told them the truth.Terry his friend bugger never explicitly agreed with him but he took the time to hear what he had to say. Terry often teased him by calling him an eighth wonder. Eevdo didn’t know what that meant. Max, Emily, and Ted (Anthony’s children) were going through documents in a hidden archive only available to Frederick family members. It was only around an hour or so later when Eevdo was called in by vice president Ernest. Ernest was like a machine to eevdo. Ernest had always feared the day he would pass away. His chest could open up and he’d see wires and machines holding organs and bloods working to keep him alive. Ernest couldn’t really get around anymore unless it was serious so he often stayed in wheel chair with IV’s all over. He was a walking hospital bed. Eevdo was unsure how old Ernest was, but he often spoke about the past and how he would always be made fun of for wearing armor to school.

When he was called to meet with Ernest he was wondering what the occasion was? Did another bugger flee? Or did another bugger at- BANG CRASH THUD THUD. These sounds repeated all in different orders. It came from the vent. Eevdo was wondering where the vent led to, he couldn’t remember. He was right outside Ernest’s door when he heard from the same vent a scream then a thud. Whatever was happening in the room sure was crazy. Eevdo walked into Ernest’s room. Breathing heavily Ernest turned around. Next to him was a bugger and some sort of large sack or wrapped up thing? It was gooey and the goo was green. “Eevdo, do you know what…this object is?” rasped Ernest. “Is it a giant bag?” questioned Eevdo. “You couldn’t be more…incorrect” replied Ernest. “Its an egg, rather a whole colony collection in bugger…tradition they will usually group together eggs then they all…hatch and look for their parents.” The bugger next to him didn’t look happy nor sad. “However” Started Ernest before coughing intensely. “These make great power sources, if harvested correctly they can power us for another… 3 years.” Finished Ernest. “But i want children, i get it for the better but i want this to grow, my friends and i want our cocoon back.” argued the bugger. Ernest slowly turned to face the bugger. “You haven’t the slightest clue to what we’d lose” Ernest angrily replied “We’re nearing the end of a war we only have one thing strong enough to KILL your…kind and if we don’t they will kill US” “That goes against what we do here though.” Piped back the bugger. Eevdo began to back her up “We’re supposed to show buggers and humans can live together in pe-” “QUIET BOY. You need to learn… sacrifice. We can lose something important to us for the benefits of others. It would be selfish for us to not use this cocoon as a source of power for…” “Us” continued the bugger. “Get out” Said Ernest in a strict but calm voice. The bugger left along with the cocoon. “Eevdo, the main reason i called

you in is because in the will you’re the acting leader of Paradox. I have no reason why but it happened. Go to your room your… desk has been upgrade” Ernest had informed. Eevdo on his way back wanted to know what that noise was. HE had opened his map and saw the vent lead to the first section of the archives where anyone Level 4 or higher could access. As he entered he found the whole room a mess! Papers and files everywhere, how did this happen. File cabinets flipped over, broken computers lights flickering, juice had been leaking out from the door. In the middle of this all he found a recording, an empty bottle with the label poison, a file, a bugger egg, and a blade.

: Eevdo heard Frederick’s voice “I feel sick like i cant do anything, my body gets more and more numb, my veins are black i shouldn’t have tr-” The recording cut out to a different one. “Project seek audio log 4 should any copy of this audio release to the public you will be fined 250,000 dollars and sent to death row ,we entered the archives and found several items hidden in a mini fridge. These have been placed next to this recording. Im leaving this so that when i return nobody touches these. I may have figured out who murdered my father.” Murdered? I thought they said he just died of a heart attack. The recording went on and on but this time it was a prerecorded lesson on a man which eevdo had never heard of. He didn’t pay attention much but he could only remember the words “scissors, et tu, and someone named Brutus”

Eevdo opened the room the weird juice was coming out of, he saw buggers dead, and Emily and ted? “EEVDO” shouted someone. “IM coming” replied Eevdo but when he turned around he saw Max. Max didn’t look happy holder a metal rod in one hand and dragging a weird long tent in the other. Wait a minute that isn’t a tent it’s to long. It can’t be a sleeping bag? Sleeping bags don’t go over your face. Max swung at Eevdo but when he was about to hit him Eevdo fell asleep. Eevdo woke up he couldn’t move. Ropes hugged his body tight. Ernest in front of him. Ernest’s insides were exposed and open one of the glass containers, shattered. “Eevdo, where is terry?” Max questioned “I’ll never tell, you hurt me and you’re..” Eevdo stopped when he saw Ernest. He looked awful he was turning green and he can see his bones. “Ernest lost his liver due to an attack terry is behind it” Max explained. “What did you do in the archives.” Eevdo asked. “Archived the rest of my family, my politics can not be interrupted by my family taking what i earned. You see i’ve worked hard. I’ve insured and made sure everybody gets what they want. Only for some brainsick manchild to take it from me.” Max ranted. A bugger guard camne to calm him down “Sir please he servese some use while it doesn’t seem leader worthy he is still useful” the guard explained. Every sentence both has said had been fueling his body with anger. He could feel it almost up to his neck slowly making its way up. He could hear his own heartbeat getting faster. “And lets not forget how stupid you are to think my father is just sleeping, sleeping right along with your family.” The anger reached his head. He lunged towards max but used Ernest as a human shield. He broke his ropes using nothing but his force and landed towards Ernest. He heard shattering and he fell on the floor.He looked back and saw Ernest. A weird liquid bleeding out a greenish reddish mix? Did Ernest die? “Quickly Eevdo follow me get out of here!” It was his friend Terry the bugger. He rushed out with Terry. He looked at a clock in the hallway it was 4:15 am.

”Eevdo, please meet my friends, 234, paperclip, and Liliana.” Terry said rather quickly. Eevdo remember Liliana from Ernest’s office. “Why are we in a hurry?” asked Eevdo. “I found a way to bring us great fortune, Anthony Frederick has been donating power energy digitally to the people who work in command and battle school. In around 7 hours we will run out of energy we need to cut it off or else we’ll all die because we need power to survive.” Explained terry. Eevdo thought it didn’t make sense. He still went along with it and made his way to a safe place.

“They lied, the people i fed. The ones i sheltered when they, were no longer apart of their hive mind. A fool i was. Now i have one who’s trying to kill me. They poisoned me they need the colony to live. I tried to explain i want to help but they told me to do horrible things to my friends. Metaphorically i’ve been stabbed in the back however in a few minutes I-”

Anthony stopped recording. He observed his surroundings. Something was off. He felt his head ring with a hum seemingly never gonna end. He grabbed a gun. Walked around his office and searched. As he got closer to the door he felt the ringing and hum getting more intense. He opened it. Nothing appeared. Looked down each hall, nothing. SNAP. He felt a sharp pain in the back of his head. His vision was getting blurry. He reached for the back of his head. He didn’t feel it. Then looked at his hand. Red. Looked behind him a green person? Where am i? Why is it getting dark.

Grant noticed something, an SOS signal. He hadn’t received one in a while. When he had seen who it was from however he felt broken, annoyed, upset. The message read. “CQD CQD. Buggers have turned, Leader Anthony is dead. CQD CQD. Ernest is dead. SOS SOS. Eevdo has turned. They are rushing to the power grid. RE8gTk9UIEFUVEFDSyBBVCBBTEwgQ09TVFM=.”

What? Grant had viewed a message of his friends passing with a strange code at the end. He couldn’t do anything about it though. He had to prepare the graduation test.

10:30 AM

Eevdo had been guarding the power room. He found instructions of what this bugger satellite his friends now enemies made. He needed to disconnect it. He fired the planets canons at it so it didn’t steal power. It was easily destroyed. This surely wasn’t it, was it?

Ender had been trying to command his army but to no success nothing worked. The comms didn’t work, he couldn’t control his ship. None of his crew could control their ships either. Not even the lights which had shut off Someone must have knocked out the power satellite. he looked back at the spectators. “You’re game is broekn” Ender proclaimed as he watched the fleets in the game swarm over all his fleets and his friends fleets.Wait. It must be some kinda test! Working without essentials. People were crying some were in shock. Surprisingly the screen displayed earth being destroyed and invaded. “Pretty grim game over screen” Muttered Ender.

Terry watched. He had made sure that the map of the orbit reached the satellite for command school. “I am the most loyal” He was watching people cry back home watching live footage of the attack. So was Eevdo who was lying on the floor stabbed in the back literally. “Et tu brutus?” Terry mocked.

Eevdo didn’t know what that meant.
