“Street, come in here,” Shift called out as Street walked past the door to the small conference room.

“What’s going on?” Street asked as he tentatively entered the room.

“We, well Mike actually, has found out something that will be very interesting to you. Can you go gather everyone together please?”

“Okay.”

Fifteen minutes later, everyone had gathered in the conference room except Marilyn, who was on watch in the security room by the front entrance. Mike and Shift were standing at the front of the room, patiently waiting. Marilyn was visible on the holo in the corner of the room.

“Thanks for coming everyone,” Shift began. “Mike has discovered something that will be very interesting to a few of you.”

Nobody spoke.

“Okay, Mike tell us what you’ve learned please.”

“Well,” Mike said, “A couple of weeks ago, I began thinking about an issue which I hadn’t thought about for a while. So I began to do a little digging. Over the past two weeks, in my downtime, I’ve been combing through databases and personnel archives from various sources. After a couple of days, I found a few bits of information which led me to focus my search on a small, rogue paramilitary outfit located, well, formerly located in Connecticut. I say ‘formerly’ because I imagine they’re all dead now.”

“What’s a ‘rogue paramilitary’?” Jon Porter asked.

“Good question Jon,” Mike replied. “Generally speaking, a paramilitary group is a group of people, often former military, who operate like a military but who don’t always have the backing of a specific government. Some paramilitary groups are backed by local governments, but this one doesn’t seem to be of that type. This one appears to be rogue, which means, generally, that they are operating on their own, without the backing of any government.”

“So what did you learn?” Shift prompted.

“Early on, I found a website that contained various rumors, including that old one about the whole Anthrax E plague being a government conspiracy. As I read through the various postings to that website, I found a rumor about this particular group. They call themselves “ConControl”—short for Connecticut Control. Anyway, according to the rumors, ConControl planned to break into an unnamed lab to secure a vaccination. That got my attention, since we were one of those types of labs.

“The rumored plan called for an attack of some type on that unnamed lab utilizing the services of an insider. The insider had allegedly revealed that a vaccine had been created and was ready for distribution. The informant was supposed to steal the vaccine, escape from the compound, and then reconnect with the group at headquarters somewhere in Connecticut.

“That was all the web posting said. But, naturally, I was interested. The rumor was posted on April 25th, just a few days after that original conspiracy story came out. Among the many other avenues I pursued for information, I also looked back through our bunker’s archives from that time. Most of you know, I think, that all of our meetings were recorded and kept in archives.
