STEALER Project (Fanfic I wrote for the game back in 2012/2013)

 

i wrote a story for this a while ago.. just want to share. peace. Dava ------- Stealer project Hi  I caught your vid, amazed by your art & ShinnyMetals music. You kinda inspired me, if you will indulge me ..can I tell you a story..? in a flash I had the full Story of Stealer in my head, but y'know I'm not the writer, so relax, sit back, and please enjoy my story.. 2997, the solar system is heavily populated, ..over populated. One governmental regime rules the entire solar worlds.. they are neither a good nor bad regime, they are neither big brother nor utopian, they lack the spark that is in every human soul, and they work to work to work and every one who is born is taught from birth, 'do not be careless with resources' and on bill boards 'if leaf falls and you do not catch it.. someone dies..' We join our hero.. anti-hero..anti-villain... 'Stealer' he works in data processing in the 'Docks', the main ship port for his planet.moon.. we will never learn the name of this place, this is to keep the 'theme' of anonymity.. his best friend is 'Thief', they work in neighbouring departments, and have been friends since childhood. The Regime has been desperately trying to research faster than light travel, of which they have made 5 ships, so the people can spread out and the population can grow as 'normal', the Regime have not 'banned' childbirth but everyone knows there in that world is good reason not use resources that could save an already established life. it is social rather than law, but everyone wants children.. ref:@ 0:21 Stealer is working when he sees some VERY interesting data, it is about the new faster than light ships, the Regime has poured an entire solar systems wealth in to these ships.. and Stealer sees..The.. access..code.   ref: @ 0:56 seconds He is confused and doesn't know what to do, he wrestles his conscience.. but ultimately.. he knows he needs to leave.. he goes to 'Thief' and tells them he knows one of the ships access codes.. this is a lie ..he knows three. in the next few moments of conversation, we have a choice, that if we picked 'co-op' at the title screen, Thief is persuaded to leave.. but if we picked 'single player' Thief now is our enemy, and will do anything to get to the ship before Stealer, including killing Stealer.  While the people of this world are human they are not like us.. they are born and immediately put in to 'bio-suits' cybernetic suits that can both digitize matter and create metal body parts at will..only explosions of great magnitude or de-digitization can kill the people of this world...Thief works in internal data affairs.. and has access to such technology. for the player who picked co-op this works as a great advantage, as Thief has access to weapon tech and Stealer does not, but Stealer is a Master with computer and can hack doors, find quick routes..maybe even steal a ship.. So if in single player.. we have a race between Stealer and Thief who will get to and steal one of the ships first. They fight and Stealer loses, Thief is very strong, and a good tactician, using a 'de-digitizer weapon on Stealer and leaves him for dead.. ref: 1:31  in my mind I see a scene where, While Stealer is being de-digitized, he hacks the deconstructor weapon with his mind and forces it to reconstruct him... then teleport him. ref: @ 1:11  The teleport went well, he is in the sub-docking port, only 5 levels away from the Deck. but there he meets his female cousin 'Forget', she is maintenance supervisor for this level.. she is 'Grade 9' super genius level, Stealer is a gifted level 6, but he has 'sparks' of level 9 in him... it was his cousin who got him the job at the Docks. He needs to know things like capacity/light drive speed/system counts so he can work out how many people where supposed to crew this vessel, to fly this ship solo. What ship systems are working and online and can be set to configure automatically.. but he has to ask..her. He asks Forget casually about the ships, seeing she is already suspicious, but has to ask. She tells him the information, but asks in return, why he is here asking about the ships.. she has 1000 people under her command.. if he had access to the ships..she would like to know. NO-ONE of the staff have been inside the ships..she would like to as she puts it bluntly 'escape' too. in moment of panic and guilt he confesses he has one of the access code.. she bluntly asks for it .. he knows he shouldn't but he is afraid and confused for a second and blurts out the code. she replies meet me here in 1 hour. Stealer agrees..this is a lie.. he has no intention of doing so. he is going to leave as soon as he can get to the ship, this ship is called, 'Remember'. Stealer goes to the access panel, opens a door and enters, but once in we find Thief, they talk, Thief is shocked Stealer is still alive. they fight, Stealer is losing again but as he is losing Forget launches the ship Remember, time has passed quickly, she did not lie. Thief becomes incensed with confusion and rage, and mounts a nearby Auto Cannon and fires on 'Remember' exploding it into a thousand bits. one for each person on that ship.. Forget had took her whole crew of a Thousand people. Thief did not know any of this, but Stealer knew. Stealer escapes in the commotion and emotion of Thief's actions. ref: 1:23 and 1:39 access panel, 1:44 stealer watching the ship 'Remember' explode. After Thief stops crying, sitting on the auto cannon.. Thief wonders.. 'why is Stealer running? why did Stealer leave via a door that leads..UP!' Thief realizes Stealer has another way to get a ship! and Thief pursues Stealer again.. the final battle... Thief confronts Stealer at the door of the second ship which is called 'Betrayal'.. Thief says 'I knew YOU could LEAVE me you selfish PIG!' Thief takes of their biomask, and Thief is ..female.. they had been friends since childhood.. but never lovers.. they wanted to be so very badly.. but they knew it would risk peoples lives.. Stealer hacks the terminal quickly, blocking the access bay door.. and stopping Thief from stopping him.. he boards the ship.. and we see Thief is in tears.. as we leave her.. seeing her crying through the Dock port door. ref: @ 0:41 seconds Once Stealer has left the solar system.. he sends Thief the code for the last ship..the ship is called 'Trust' with a message join him.. if she won't kill him.. ref: 0:32 [Fade out] the gameplay understandably is missing but its just a what I was thinking watching you vid. anyway I've written enough.. hehe. Good luck with your project and thanks for reading my story. Peace Dava Sent to: Winged Doom 12/06/12 ------- the theme being anonymity.. the people of the solar system are often anonymous only because there are so very many people now. all the names are changed from 'real' names.
