H&G vs HG

Hello, Hana again here. As Glutton has reported, he got our messages, and made it back to VHS base 1. I was inside the main system, checking on how much had changed in the world since we left, and I felt someone trying to gain access. The computer was damaged and low on power, so I could only just get into it. As soon as I saw it was Glutton, I went back to the primary console and opened the main hub. As the screen I was looking from slid into the room, I saw Glutton fully at last. He looked badly injured, and seemed to be in pain. 'Glutton, thank goodness.'
He looked confused. 'Er....hi?'
'Oh, sorry, should have warned you. Must be a bit of a shock, gigantic blue face suddenly appearing on a screen. I don't think we've ever actually met properly.'
'Hana?'
'Yes, nice to meet you. I'm sorry for the circumstances, and for what you've been through. Tempest needs our help.'
'I've been doing what I can.'
'I know, and we're grateful. But now we need to make use of the Parallel times. Tempest has been managing to blog, so the connection is still open.'
'So how do we do that?'
'The generator here is failing. Soon this system will be useless, but I need to get to HG's computers, and you need to help Tempest inside the base if he calls for it.'
'So what do we do?'
'There should be a round, handheld unit somewhere round here, we used it so non-technopaths
could access the system when out in the field.'
Glutton searched around, and eventually found it under a damaged table. It had clearly fallen off, but being underneath had protected it from any further damage. Imagine an iPhone, but with two rounded ends instead of being rectangular. It's Arctic Blue in colour, and the front is nothing but screen. Under my instruction, he slotted it into a dock, having to hold one side in place to stop it falling out, and pressed a button on the side. I downloaded everything I could, anything I thought I might need for hacking HG's system, and charged it's battery from the generator. Then I transferred myself to it. I looked up at Glutton, who jumped as lights and screens started going out all over the room. He managed to catch me, and I gave him an encouraging smile. 'T says he'll need me on the inside if he's going to beat HG. No pressure Glutton, but we're his only hope. You have to get me there. Glutton, last surviving member of SOLAR, friend of VHS, this plan relies on you. Tempest's fate, and therefore the world's, is, quite literally, in your hands.'

You're the only one left.

Glutton, this is a message for you. You can still help us, and I think we'll need you to.

Me and Hana have talked, and asked the others a few bits, and we think we know what Future me was on about.

So, Parallel times.

What it boils down to is this: I am currently posting these to you through a connection that was created when I was 'time-napped' by Moira and Diffy. I was using technopathy to post a live, direct thought-to-blog post. This went from me, through my phone and Hana, and then to the main computer. When the time-napping happened, it opened a hole to pull me through, causing the two times to connect. The sudden transfer snapped me out of it, so I assume the blog will have uploaded that one unfinished. The connection between the main computer and my phone however, boosted by both Hana and my ability, remained fairly firmly intact. Now, while this does allow me to send these blog posts back through time to pop up randomly back in my time, where you're reading this now. However, it ALSO means that the join between the two times is being kept open. The link is only maintained by, and can only manage, the datastream between the two devices, I can't use it to get home, but it does mean that the future and the past are still touching, forcing when I left and when I am to run alongside each other.

Parallel Times. It's not too late Glutton. Your actions can directly affect the future, and not in the normal way. Normally, your actions in the past would have happened a long time ago, and you wouldn't be able to affect things that had already happened to us. They would be fixed events, and trying to mess with them would probably wipe me from existence along with the future I'm in. But because of the link, you merely alter the same future, changing it instead of replacing it with a new one. Things will actually change before my eyes, and I'll remember how it used to be.

Use this Glutton. Do what you can to change the future. Get jump, and fight for us. Help us get where we need to be.

Go to the VHS base, pray it's intact, and use the main computer to log your phone into the VHS mainframe. I programmed SOLAR into it's files, so it should grant you first level access. That's all you'll need if my plan works. Hopefully, someone will be in contact soon.
