Brief intro. Not found how to format text here yet so conversation tags are in square brackets for more clarify. Setting Earth ruled by sentient AI called Corona. Alien command is extraterrestrial, the characters are clones wanting to destroy Corona.

“Incoming terrestrial vessel. There is an anomaly onboard.” [Alien command AI]

“Can you be more precise?” Lydia felt helpless. She suspected Tully did too. Not one, but two were incoming, and a machine was taking the lead.

“Biometric scans indicate the terrestrial vessel contains a replicant.” [Alien command AI]

“Go on,” said Tully.

“It matches your biometrics bar some internal genetic restructuring.” [Alien command AI]

Tully 679, this is unheard of. “More than alien versus alien, a mad AI and us incapable of doing anything to alter our destinies?”

Correct. It means Tully 680 is online. Peck addressed the A.I. What is its intention? [Peck, augmented AI implant in Tully]

“Scans reveal ineffective deception fields. They intend to transgress the shield via wired drone and destroy this facility.” [Alien command AI]

“They?” queried Lydia.

“Biometric scanning revealed a secondary augmented A.I. symbiont.” [Alien command AI]

“Looks like you're on version two point one now too, Peck.”

The presumption will be that we stay in this facility. [Peck, augmented AI implant in Tully]

“There is a weakness. The drone can be destroyed by pulsed modulation of the EMF. Its creation assumed the field wall does not flux. Scans suggest the replicant is suppressing thoughts. With the drone down, the augmented A.I. can be erased. Negotiation may be possible.” [Alien command AI]

“Why not terminate both before entry?” Tully was curious.

“Outside the oaf can monitor data. From within, it remains isolated.” [Alien command AI]

Tactical Tully 679. [Peck, augmented AI implant in Tully]

“This threat is now negated and now designated your responsibility. The Alien ship has decelerated and now scanning this planet from lunar orbit.” [Alien command AI]

Lydia was now leaning on a console staring at the screen, “Scanning for what?”

“Unknown.” [Alien command AI]

Tactical appraisal. [Peck, augmented AI implant in Tully]

“Searching for something. Probability suggests the defence grid has not held parity with expected pre-system entry data.” [Alien command AI]

For something that pre-dates Earth civilisation, you seem ahead of everything. [Peck, augmented AI implant in Tully]

“Not simply A.I. as was previously inferred.” [Alien command AI]

Are you in constant communication with your creators?

“Classified.”

Tully smiled, “That would be a yes, then.”

An alarm sounded. Lydia turned her head to another data feed. “Our friends are here, Tully.”

“Confirmed. EMF modulation will be initiated in one minute. Counting down initiated.” [Alien command AI]

###

Tully 680, we are here. Begin deployment of the unit. I will handshake our com link to Corona. [Tully 680 Clone AI]

Tully 680 felt uneasy; he recognised this place, more déjà vu. “It's a trap.”

Nonsense, continue activating the drone pod. [Tully 680 Clone AI]

Tully 680 fired it up, hooking the cable into their transport ship. It would uncoil automatically during transit. But, for now, it hovered expectantly in front of him.

Begin. [Corona. Sentient AI command]
