After the Chinese shattered the Australian networks, Summer delved into the backup networks and began contacting anyone she could. America. England. Her voice went far and wide over frequencies and protocols long abandoned by any government. But private citizens all over the world heard her voice and the reason for Australia’s silence became known. American and English citizens demanded action from the governments, and then it was time for Summer to go to war.
The Final War between East and West the world feared in the later half of the Twentieth Century did not happen. Do not misunderstand me. There was much conflict between Russian, China, and America in those years, but Korea was the only place in which they openly fought each other. The Cold War never turned hot and the powerful nations of the time did what they could to avoid the Final War everybody knew nobody could win. That did not stop extreme rhetoric though.
Natalie used to be Louis’ cybernetic partner. Before Epsilon Reticuli. She changed after that. I’ve always thought it was for the better, but I may be biased. I’ve enjoyed working with her over the years despite all the drama involved. It hasn’t always been easy and I haven’t always been right. I made some pretty stupid mistakes after The War for instance. I can’t take those back. But I always look forward to every chance I get to work with her. She’s one of the really good ones.
The initial Chinese cyber attacks wiped out most of Australia’s computer networks and cut most of her navy off from contact with the mainland. The attacks also killed most of the prospective AIs built to answer Australia’s call to cybernetic security, ravaged her power networks, and left Australia unable to effectively resist the coming war. Mostly. Summer did not accept the idea that Australian civilization was at an end.
